Customer Review Summary
Pancake rolls are the most repeated draw, called big, tasty and yummy, and the same diners praise the king prawn satay starter, the king prawn chow mein and a special foo yeung called superb. One reviewer singles out the Singapore fried rice and adds garlic to the crispy chilli beef, and another says the food tastes homemade. One loyal customer of 20 years describes a family-run business with friendly, kind owners. Opinion splits sharply, though, and the complaints are specific. Reviewers describe chicken balls with soggy batter that slid off, food barely warm after waiting for the order, ribs with next to no meat, a beef chow mein that was mostly gravy, and a foo yung so soggy it needed microwaving. Others report a sour chicken curry, chicken fried rice and noodles with no taste, a missed item, and some greasiness. One spring roll came in fish-shop-style batter. Even that reviewer called the delivery speedy and the delivery man friendly.

“Absoloutly discusting.Bought a special foo Yung and a portion of egg fried rice. When I got home I had to put the foo Yung in the microwave for 6 mins the egg was that soggy. If I'd of eaten that I would of probably got salmonella. The egg fried rice was stodgy it was more like boiled rice. Never going back to that place ever again.”

“So disappointing. Waited 30 mins for our order - thought ok, atleast it will be nice & fresh. It was barely warm. The batter on chicken balls super soggy & slid off! The BBQ ribs had next to no meat on them! Beef chow mein basically looked like a tonne of gravy with a few scraggly bits of meat thrown into it. I don’t normally leave reviews, especially not a bad one, but I was genuinely so disappointed. Also missed item from order. I’ve seen many leave positive reviews so not sure what happened, but I for sure won’t be returning or recommending.”
