“Excellent Chinese takeaway. Service from entering the premises to leaving was friendly welcoming and helpful, the food was superb and the price was reasonable. Worth noting they don't take card payments, so be prepared and bring cash.”

“Not been here for awhile, service was quick,sadly , still cash only so it's a trip to the cash point first . Simple order, sweet n sour chicken balls, beef chow mein, rice and some beansprouts . The sweet n sour was fine , the rice was ok , the beef chow mein was tasteless but the beansprouts were singlehandedly the worst thing any takeaway has ever served me , smelt hideous, tasted worse , straight in the bin”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers mostly praise the fresh flavours, with one noting the food is not packed with grease, sugar and MSG, and others calling it tasty and reasonably priced. Friendly, quick service and a varied menu also come up. The sharpest complaint comes from one diner who found the beef chow mein tasteless and the beansprouts smelling hideous, so they went straight in the bin.
