Customer Review Summary
Salt and pepper dishes draw the most repeat praise. One diner calls the salt and pepper platter huge and delicious, and another singles out the salt and pepper chips alongside veg chow mein. Close behind are the chef fried rice, which one reviewer says is hard to find done well and was spot on here, plus chicken in black bean sauce and sweet and sour chicken balls. Reviewers describe the food as tasty, consistent and piping hot, and mention loads of variety and good veggie options. Several call the prices cheap or decent, though one finds it a little pricey. One praises the friendly owner on the phone, and another notes quick delivery. Two reviewers report problems. One says the chicken arrived raw, pink and cold and warns of food poisoning. Another says the duck was not recognisable as duck and found a tiny black hair on the cucumber slices. In a happier moment, a long-time customer recalls a missing bag of chicken balls that a kitchen worker drove over in his own car.
