Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often return to the generous portions, with several calling them huge and good value, and one noting the food arrived hot and well packaged. Flavour comes next, described as well seasoned and authentic, and the sizzling beef is singled out as the highlight. One first-time diner found the chicken balls not ball-shaped but still tasty, and a few who tried other Chelmsford takeaways say none came close. The negative reviews pull the other way. Two describe greasy food, including overcooked duck dripping fat, chicken balls that tasted of old oil, and chef's special rice that was stodgy with minimal meat and veg. A long-time customer who had never had a bad meal there before ordered on Christmas Eve and waited well past the quoted collection time. They then found burnt noodles, chow mein with no chicken, and chips like rocks.

  • Francis Mc Allan
    “Absolutely disgusted with the bag of over cooked duck. Full of dripping fat and smell of burnt oil. Chef's special rice is just alot of stodgy rice and minimal meat, veg. £39 for a bag of over cooked, burnt oil food. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Hurry up and reopen wok u like.”

    “Absolutely love this place. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed. It's a family ran business full of care and evident in the food and greeting of the customers. The menu has a great balance of classic Chinese dishes and standout specialties, and every dish we tried was packed with authentic flavor. The highlight was the sizzling beef! Easily one of the best Chinese spots around—highly recommend and will definitely be back.”
