Customer Review Summary
Chips draw the most comment, and opinion splits sharply. One long-time customer praises the salt and pepper chips for their flavour and the lack of unwanted onions, while others describe the chips as burnt or say they tasted of fish. Salt and pepper dishes, chow mein and the chilli and garlic crispy special earn praise from those who enjoyed the food, and one reviewer found the char siu very tender and the service lovely. The special fried rice draws the sharpest criticism. One diner describes a brown mess with hard chunks of pork and overdone prawns, and another found it stale and dirty. A couple of others call the food bland. Timing and pricing recur as complaints too. Orders arrived well past the quoted time, one order sat in the shop after its stated ready time, and one reviewer was told a wrong price that rose at the end. A diner who phoned to complain about the fried rice and burnt chips was asked whether they had really ordered from this takeaway.

“Horrible chips, worse chips I have had Could taste fish and asked for a chip butty. Didn’t even know wat a chip buttie was , and no tomato sauce plus cash only which is very strange”

“Told 1 hour 15 minutes, took 2 hours and had to pick it up. Also told wrong price when originally ordered. Added a tenner on at the end.”

“Food is good here well I've only ate once from here but it was really good. Shame there's a lot of rubbish on the back lane behind this takeaway.”
- Anthony Brooks
“£5:70 for a portion of chips with gravy. I walked out when I heard the price. Much better Chinese around the corner. Lotus go there instead better price and authentic Chinese working there”
