Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the salt and pepper dishes. One calls the chicken wings the best around, and another pairs salt and pepper chips with crispy beef in chilli sauce that arrived still hot. Close behind is the spicy poached beef in chilli oil. A vegetarian table enjoyed sweet and sour vegetarian chicken and beancurd with ginger and spring onion, plus hot and sour and sweetcorn soups made meat free on request. Pork and fish dishes are described as ideal with rice. Reviewers repeatedly mention big portions, cheap prices and quick, friendly service, and one describes a lunchtime two course special for diners in a rush. One reviewer found the food a little under seasoned and the portion small for the cost, though still good. The recurring catch is payment, as two reviewers say the restaurant only took cash, and one was pointed to a nearby cash machine by the staff.

“Love it here, we keep coming back! Delicious food, amazing prices, incredibly friendly service. They have some really delicious dishes on their Chinese menu, give them a try. My favourite is the spicy poached beef in chilli oil. Last time we went they only took cash but there is an ATM nearby the restaurant.”

“First time here. Polite girl and lady attended to me. I hate it when restaurant front staff look at you with cold face like you’re not about to pay money to uplift their revenue. So well done to Tasty Wok for getting this basic thing right. Food was good but a little under seasoned and portion was small for the price, but all the same it’s beyond a write off! Unlike most Chinese takeaways which now accept forms of payment, this place only accepts cash - thankfully she directed me to a nearby cash machine.”

“Wow great portions and the best salt and pepper chicken wings. Must cheaper and a whole better than the others around. Quick service and excellent food. Highly rate”

“Went there for a family meal and it was lovely. We got there pretty early so got a choice of tables but it fill up pretty quickly. Service was great and they helped us with food suggestions too. Super friendly staff and all the food came out quick and hot. I’m a stickler for places that throw on too much MSG but this place didn’t have that and I throughly enjoyed the food. Even the toilets were super clean and sometimes that’s how some people judge a food place. We’ll be back for sure.”

“We ordered salt and pepper chips with crispy beef in chilli sauce. It was delicious. One of the best I've ever had. It got delivered in good time and the food was still very hot.”
