“Takeaway only. Reasonable prices, tasty meals every time. Never been disappointed. Can recommend chicken in garlic and oyster sauce, beef and cashew is another favourite of ours !!! Peking duck with pancakes, carefully prepared and tasty. House Special Fried rice is very good too. !! We have tried lots of other dishes too, they are always delicious. Generous portion of BBQ ribs. We also love Dannys salt and chilli chips, they are very flavoursome and a generous portion.”

“Weve been looking for a good chinese takeaway for ages and we find this one is very good. The food is lovely and akways piping hot. Tonight i got the chicken in garlic and chilli. I asked if it was cooked in batter, he told me no, but would cook it in batter. Same price. Find the staff are lovely. Prices are good. Has a high Gateshead Council rating for hygiene. Apparantly has been open for years which speaks for itself. Would defo recommend.”

Customer Review Summary
Chicken in garlic and oyster sauce, along with the garlic and chilli chicken, is what regulars name most, with beef and cashew, Peking duck with pancakes and House Special fried rice close behind. Reviewers repeatedly praise generous portions, including the BBQ ribs, the Munchie Box and a House Special chow mein loaded with prawns and meat. Salt and chilli chips and a curry sauce without a skin on top also get singled out. Several describe food arriving piping hot and quick, and a few mention friendly staff and long-standing loyalty, with one reviewer citing over two decades of orders. The complaints are few. One reviewer found the chicken in a Munchie Box a bit tough, and another was let down by a Wednesday night special with dry, overcooked chips, sticky fried rice and tasteless chicken that ended up in the bin. A long-time customer recalls three orders with missing items, each put right without quibble, and one reviewer who asked for the chicken in garlic and chilli to be cooked in batter was told it could be done at the same price.
