Customer Review Summary
Portion size draws the most consistent praise, with reviewers repeatedly calling takeaway servings huge and describing deliveries and collections arriving roasting hot. One diner singles out the salt and chilli king prawns as juicy and succulent, and another notes the kitchen will adapt orders, plain meat with boiled rice, onion and beansprouts, to suit dietary needs. Close behind the praise sits a recurring quality complaint: several reviewers describe battered chicken as mostly batter with rubbery, chewy pieces, and one recent order of chicken chow mein arrived with no vegetables and an extra 50p charge just for sauce. Pricing draws sharp criticism too, with one reviewer calling a £31.50 delivery a rip-off after being told everything had simply "went up 50p." Telephone manner is flagged as rude by at least one caller. Longtime customers, some citing decades of loyalty, say standards have slipped, attributing it to the restaurant being "too busy" and prioritizing profit over quality.

“20/30 years ago I rated the best in north west, unfortunately it’s terrible now as it’s too busy, more profit than quality.”
- Trevor McKee
“Not for me, basic pre packed sauces, meat a bit sus, frozen chips, and doesn't do sit in as advertised. Better and cheaper in Tescos across road.”
- Stephanie Stevenson
“Food very good. Pity I can't say the same about the customer service. Very rude telephone manner. Sort the manners out as this would definitely put me off ordering anymore!”
- Kathy McCandless
“Oh dear! What a let down.... Busy when I went in, but in hindsight that was coz our usual Chinese was closed due to New Year. Ordered chicken chow mein and vegetable szechuan with garlic chips. £15.50. Told 10 mins. When I went back in the food was ready and waiting on time. Chicken chow mein is supplied dry, and you have to order and pay 50p extra for a sauce (didn't realise that when ordering) Double height tub so portion size is decent, but literally it consisted of noodles and chicken. Not one vegetable in sight. Not even a slither of an onion. None. Zilch. Nada. And tasted of salt. Vegetable szechuan had plenty of veg which was great. Not a huge amount of spice or flavour. Once all the veg was gone I was left with oodles of garlic in the sauce. Bit of overkill if you ask me. Garlic chips looked ok, but riddled with chunks of garlic and tasted solely of salt. Completely dehydrated after we ate what we could. Unfortunately a grim experience and I wouldn't recommend it.”
