“Gone way downhill in past 2 month. Chips old, chicken in the curry is absolutely awful as well as glupey sauce, wrong items in order 3 times now despite telling them to make sure. Ordered from here over 2 years and gave them the benifit of the doubt. Never again. The history of reviews to now speaks for itself. Something has clearly changed here recently. I'd recommend going elsewhere, I know I certainly will be”

“I did not like their food. I have ordered chicken curry. No taste at all. Not even a taste of curry. Absolutely none. Will never order again. I tried to put some seasoning, with no results. Everything went to the bin. Absolutely disgusting. Don't order it. There are many other lovely places around.”

“First time ordering food from here and definitely the last. Two House Special Sweet and Sour was practically all pork, meat was overcooked. Chips were rock hard and egg fried rice was stodgy and cold. Had a few mouth fulls and rest went in the bin. Total waste of £18. Not enjoyable at all.”
