Customer Review Summary

Chicken chow mein remains the most praised item, described as fresh and good quality, with reviewers noting free extra chillies and portions large enough for two. Close behind, pickup within minutes on a good night and the free prawn crackers and fortune cookies included with orders draw favorable mentions, alongside friendly, patient staff. Set against this, a recurring complaint concerns declining quality: one long-time customer described chow mein as slimy, chicken as plasticky and rice as dry, while another called the egg fried rice greasy and bland. One reviewer also reports finding plastic in their noodles, with no apology given when raised with a manager. Several others describe delivery times stretching well past the quoted 65 to 70 minutes, with orders arriving late, cancelled, or a refund promised but not yet confirmed.

    “I have found the best Chinese shop, I would say the UK. 4 chefs battling at it cooking . Chicken chow mein, it fanominal dont charge for extra chilli's. All the other takeaways do. Where can you find a chow for £20? This will feed two happily. Fresh, tasty and good quality 👌”

    “Was really good to start with! The more you use them the worse it gets. So greasy tonight made me sick. Go to lucky instead, tonight it was vile unless you love everything dripping in oil. Never again, when I say vile with oil thats it!”

    “Placed an order online. Delivery time said 70 minutes. OK it's a Saturday so fair enough. 95 minutes passed and phoned to see what was happening with our order. Was told it would be another 30 minutes. So had to cancel the order. Such a shame because we always have had great food and great service. Not even a apology for the delay. Won't be ordering again”
