“Crispy beef was very oily, bland and not crispy. Rice was stodgy. Chicken was very dry. Spring rolls tasted off and the sauce was way too sweet. …”

“Age here tonight as not much open in coleford on a Monday. I couldn’t find many reviews, I guess now that’s because nobody eats here. I should have guessed it would be bad as we was the only customer . The food was tasteless. We had sweet sour Hong Kong chicken and the chicken was so dry I nearly choked on it and the sauce had no flavour. The curry and satay sauce again both dull in flavour. All went straight in the bin, not 1 person out of all 4 of us could eat the food . Bearing in mind we hadn’t eaten since 10am as was travelling all day and we were all starving”
