Customer Review Summary
Regulars single out the hot and sour soup above everything else, with one calling it 10 out of 10. Others name satay chicken skewers, prawn toast, peking ribs, sweet and sour chicken and beef in black bean sauce, and one reviewer calls it the best curry they have had in years. Several describe fast, hassle-free delivery and polite, welcoming staff, and one says the wait between ordering and collecting is short. The complaints are specific. One reviewer found a special curry with no prawns and a special foo young with no beef, another found the black bean beef hotter than an Indian phal, and a third says prices rose three times in two years while meat and prawns were reduced. One reviewer says an order placed through a delivery app quoted 35 to 50 minutes, was marked delivered, and still had not arrived three hours later.

“Ordered a beef in black bean sauce. It was more spicy than an Indian phal. Its not supposed to be spicy. Did you drop the chilli pot in my food? Im not impressed”
