Customer Review Summary
Reviewers are sharply split, and most complaints centre on the chicken. Several describe it as tough with a dark patch, or very underdone with batter coming off, in the salt and pepper chicken. Crispy chicken is called soggy, and a chicken curry is described as inedible. Others report dry ribs, a chicken chow mein microwaved to near dust, burnt sweet and sour chicken balls, and egg fried rice that tasted boiled. Portions draw complaints too, with one noting only a few small slices of duck in the duck fried rice. Delivery is another recurring problem: food arrived cold or lukewarm, and one reviewer waited far beyond the estimate and made two phone calls. On the positive side, a few praise the salt and pepper box with big pieces of chicken, succulent ribs and wings, crispy chips and tasty chow mein, and one calls the staff polite and efficient. One earlier critic returned after a chef change and found the food tasty again, though another reviewer says it has declined over recent months.

“I don't usually post reviews for places like this, but this is the probably the worst chinese takeaway i've ever been to. They're very stingy with the meat, my duck fried rice had maybe 4 small slices of duck in it, and the salt + pepper chicken was actually a roughly chopped onion with sprinkling's of VERY underdone chicken. it was floppy. the batter was coming off on my fingers. I had to finish cooking it in the air fryer. Like this wasn't a cheap meal either. If you're gonna charge me a fortune for food at least give me a decent portion, or at the very least cook the damn stuff properly.”

“Honest review, food was poor but eatable. Chicken chow main was microwaved to near dust, it was very dry with the tiniest amounts of chicken in. Sweat and sour chicken balls were tiny and burnt (again through the microwave) vegetable spring rolls reminded me of the aldi ones (suspicious) and the rice was okay. Won't be going back unfortunately but still managed to eat the food, not with a smile on my face though”
