Customer Review Summary
Reviewers are split, and late delivery is the loudest complaint. Praise centres on the takeaway dishes themselves: black bean and green pepper, chow mein, beef in vegetables, Singapore rice, salt and pepper pork ribs and Cantonese chicken, along with a curry one reviewer called lovely and tasty. Some describe generous portions and friendly staff, and one says delivery is always on time. Others report orders arriving an hour late, and one says food came four hours after ordering, with staff repeatedly saying it was out for delivery. Several describe dismissive phone service. Food quality is also mixed: one found a small lid in the soup, a burger nearly cold, and a chow mein barely warm, another called the food bland and chewy, and two mention chips that were over-salted or raw and binned. One reviewer describes a worker wiping her hands on a dirty coat while cooking, and says they asked for their money back. One long-time customer still praises the food as brilliant while saying the late Christmas Eve order means they will not return.

“Ordered chips and a pot of curry. Curry was lovely very tasty, the chips were too salted. Half the portion went in the bin as it was inedible and uncomfortable to eat. Shame as chips had lovely texture.”

“Edit: 24-12-25 After the previous excellent experience - we were really let down on Christmas Eve. Using their website and their third party service to order food, I requested a specific delivery time and this wasn’t met. When I phoned up the lady couldn’t be less bothered, simply telling me that they had people in the shop who were of more importance to them and that we were in a queue, which is strange because I ordered the food at 6pm for an 8pm delivery. It’s now 815pm. How big a queue did they have? The least I would have expected us some courtesy to let me know it would be late. I then phoned back to cancel the order as it was now pushing 30 mins after the delivery point. This time an English lad picked up and decided it was a laughing matter and wanted to joke about. Eventually the food turned up an hour late. It’s really really unacceptable and I won’t be coming back - despite the food being absolutely brilliant. Service is just as important in this industry. The food gets five stars, the rest gets zero. It’s very sad to have to leave such a negative review of a local business but the service is the reflection here and to simply offer no sincere apologies or courtesy isn’t acceptable. Previous review: November 2025 : Lovely little Chinese takeaway. Very authentic, great sized portions and a large menu to choose from. Totally recommend trying the chow meins or the beef in vegetables.”
