Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers, many of them holidaymakers around Hemsby, describe the food as very good, cooked fresh and great value, with friendly service mentioned alongside it. One says it beats the Chinese food they get back in Oxfordshire, another notes a big order still arrived quickly, and a family took a takeaway back to their campsite and all enjoyed it. One reviewer faced a wait to collect but read the busyness as a good sign. The criticism is specific. A diner found the sweet and sour more sour than sweet, with a tart sauce and a dry quarter of duck, though service was good. Another called the food bland, undercooked and small in portion. A third says the chicken curry was so salty that they and their daughter could not eat it, and felt a small portion of rice was pricey. That family left the curry untouched and the children hungry.

“The food was ok, the sweet and sour was more sour than sweet. We had the quarter of duck and the sauce was also quite tart and the duck quite dry. Customer service was good.”

“Food was amazing, I've had quite a few Chinese dishes from multiple places but none have come close to this one, service was phenomenal and food was so good that I want to go back for more but my stomach doesn't expand that much, 100% worth trying”
