Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the Singapore vermicelli noodles, praised for their curry flavour, heat, and generous load of meat and prawns, with one longtime Chinese food eater calling them the best in over 40 years. Close behind are the mixed starters, where the ribs and bbq dipping sauce stand out, along with the special chow mein, prawn chow mein, crispy chilli beef, and salt and pepper chicken. Portions are repeatedly described as big, and several say orders arrived quickly and hot through Uber Eats. Reviewers also credit the kitchen with handling requests, such as leaving onions out of the satay dish, and one describes a free tub of salad when none was listed on the menu. The main caution comes from one diner who found the beef in black bean sauce very spicy, though the flavour was rich and savoury. Another notes the food can take a little while to be ready, which they take as a sign it is freshly cooked. One regular orders direct and collects, and a first-time ordering couple finished by sharing duck pancakes with that free salad.

“Very tasty food, I’ve ordered three times on uber eats and it’s always been superb. Gets here fast and the restaurant is super accommodating of allergies and customisations. Old market has the best Chinese takeaways you can find in Bristol”

“We come here frequently for food and the service is always great. They might take a little while to get it ready but for me that means it’s freshly cooked. The people who work there are lovely and the food is great. We order direct and go and collect because we live fairly close and it means the company gets a better share of the order value (uber eats take about 30% per order)”
