Customer Review Summary

Reviewers split sharply, with the special fried rice and curries the most common talking point. Happier diners describe a tasty special curry, Kung Po chicken in batter and special fried rice, served with friendly, quick service, decent portion sizes and an excellent quantity on a delivered order. One phone order for pickup came with complimentary prawn crackers. Several long-term customers report a slide, though. Complaints centre on dishes with hardly any sauce, including a special curried fried rice, along with undercooked fried rice, rubbery grilled and shredded chicken, and a beef curry with fatty bits. Soup draws criticism too: a hot and sour with jelly lumps, and a Tom Yum that one traveller said tasted nothing like Tom Yum. Delivery is another sore point, arriving much later than promised on several occasions. One diner reports being overcharged and missing a side dish from a set menu, with the change handed over entirely in 5p coins.

  • Martine Latham
    “Don’t be put off by some poor reviews on here - they offer a friendly, efficient service and the food was excellent. We ordered over the phone and picked up. And we were given some complimentary prawn crackers. Very satisfied.”
  • Laura charnock
    “Keep giving them a chance with delivery but it's beyond a joke when it takes over 2 hours-2 and a half hours , not great with children and trying to get them to bed.Enjoy the food but won't be ordering again for delivery! We were told 1 hour.happened a few times now.”
  • A W
    “We were overcharged last night and given 1 less item from the set menu (from set menu 1, we didnt get a side dish). Our £1 change was given entirely as 5p coins. Do they expect us to return? The food was good but other places are good and dont behave like that.”
