Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for dependable takeaway food, with chicken balls and decent rice singled out as tasty and arriving piping hot by the stated time. A birthday diner praised the steak and a variety of curries, and a vegan reviewer reliably orders the mixed veg with saté or Sichuan sauce and fried rice without egg, noting that staff understand vegan requests. Long-standing customers call the food fresh and tasty and the staff friendly. Complaints centre on delivery and order handling. Several describe deliveries arriving hours after the quoted time, and one says the driver mentioned others waiting even longer. One reviewer describes a wrong order that ended in a dispute over the returned curry and rice, and another reports finding prawns in a meal despite an allergy. A dine-in group found the mains bland and the beef tough, and was still charged for a full chicken fried rice left uneaten. One delivery ended with the driver unaware of a promised discount and asking for the full amount.

“Enjoyed the Golden Valley for my birthday meal. The food was lovely. I had the steak and a variety of curries, which I would highly recommend. The service in this restaurant was not what I was expecting. Unsure if we picked a bad night to go. However, it wasn't great. Waited 20 minutes to order drinks. Then, I waited a further 15 to order food. The waitress was not overly friendly at all and only cracked a smile when we were leaving. I did enjoy the food and would return. I would hope for a more welcoming reception next time, though. Nice decor and well set up.”

“The wonderful staff here know what vegan is and kindly advise their staff on preparing vegan-friendly options. We always get the mixed veg with saté/Sichuan sauce and fried rice without egg. Top quality”
- Ian McInnes
“We ordered five meals for my son and friends. They advised a one hour delivery time, but waited more than two and a half hours for delivery which is an absolute disgrace. Looking at reviews, this appears to happen frequently and when the order eventually arrived, the delivery driver told us that some people have been waiting three to four hours.Whilst chasing up the order on several occasions, we were promised a discount but when the delivery arrived, the driver had no knowledge of this and requested the full amount.Also worth pointing out they do not accept card payment ? I find this very suspicious but draw your own conclusions.I will certainly never use them again.”
