Customer Review Summary
Portion size draws the most praise, with reviewers pointing to the spicy crispy shredded chicken plate loaded with chicken and a full side of chips, and another describing a shared order of chicken chow mein, salt and chilli chips, egg fried rice, chicken balls and curry sauce as going a long way. Prices are called reasonable by some, though one reviewer disagrees, calling it the most expensive Chinese takeaway around. The recurring complaint, echoed across several orders, is accuracy: one longtime customer got a chicken fried rice missing its peas, ham and egg, another had to return to the shop for missing portions, and a third received two separate batches of uncooked chips. Cold food after a two hour wait and sauce described as overpoweringly garlicky come up in one account. A few reviewers also describe curt treatment when raising complaints, including one told off while still in the shop. One reviewer reports their son almost choked on dry chips from a mixed up order.

“Portion sizes are insane. You get chips or rice with your food as well. Was £9 for the spicy crispy shredded chicken and it was loaded with so much chicken plus the fact it comes with a full portion of chips as well is crazy good value compared to a lot of places these days. Definitely will be making the trip out again”
