Customer Review Summary
Chicken noodle soup is the dish reviewers raise most, and mostly as a letdown: described as bland with zero flavour, hot salty water, barely any liquid, and in one case tasting of peanut. Close behind is salt, with the chips called extremely salty, waxy and reheated, and the curry sauce likened to salty chicken soup, though one family found the chicken curry ok. Reviewers also fault the fried rice as hard, cold and burnt, the chicken balls as spongy, the crispy duck as mush with rubbery skin, and the chicken with black bean sauce as swimming in oil. Several call it overpriced for the quality, and one says the menu price was topped up with an extra charge at the till. Service splits. One reviewer praised a counter worker who was polite and handled three order changes without hassle, and another found a charming young man working with fast service and great food. The delivery driver is called excellent, yet a wrong order meant the driver had to phone for the address, and a missed item was still charged.

“Ordered chicken noodle soup tasted of peanut and also ordered crispy duck and it was anything but crispy it was mush and full of rubbery skin”
- Beverly Ferguson
“Second time I have ordered from this Chinese. Never again. I got chicken and green peppers with black bean sauce. It was swimming in oil, no sauce as such. Shredded chicken with black beans spread over the top with a few onions and about 4 slices green pepper. It was disgusting to say the least. However the rest of the family said the chicken curry was ok apart from the reheated chips. Won't be ordering again”

“The delivery driver was excellent. The girl who took my order got order wrong and driver had to phone me for address. Food though excellent and delivery driver excellent. Need to up your customer service. Also charged for missed item in my original order. Not my error.”

“Haven’t been in for a long while and decided to give it another chance tonight as previously not great! Won’t be back - overpriced, food so salty can’t eat it , extra hot curry ?- no not really - and generally not great food No “ free” prawn crackers for nearly £27 purchase on 2 regular meals Should have stuck to what I consider the best around and gone to Jimmy Wans in the Village . Never again. Would definitely not recommend !!”
