Customer Review Summary
Curry sauce is the draw reviewers single out, with one calling it the best around and another naming the crunchy onions in the curry as the best part of an otherwise disappointing order. Positive reviewers describe excellent, gorgeous food, and one praises everyone from the order taker to the delivery driver. Another says they have found their new Chinese takeaway. The complaints carry real weight, though. Slow delivery is the most repeated problem, with several describing orders arriving long after the quoted time. Some of those orders were lukewarm, including slimy chicken in the chow mein. One collection order had salt and pepper chips caked in a spice that burned the lips, and another arrived wrong, with meat that went in the bin. Regulars say quality has slipped, and one felt charged unfairly for swapping a set meal dish for honey ribs. One regular who phoned to complain was told the food had been cooked for too long.
