Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the friendly people at the counter and the food they turn out, with the house special curry and chips and beef in black bean sauce named specifically. One describes the chips as crispy and the curry sauce as really nice, while another calls the beef in black bean sauce fantastic. Close behind are the huge portions, with one couple ordering far more than two people needed, and comments about fresh food and speedy service. Several first-time customers say they have found their new Chinese takeaway. The caveat comes from two reviewers let down by chow mein. One was sent beef chow mein instead of the house chow mein they ordered, found the beef overcooked and dry and the noodles bland, and said the dish arrived cool and went in the bin. The other described old, dried meat, though the prawns were fine. One regular says that when it is closed, they do not order from elsewhere.
