Customer Review Summary
The specials draw the most praise, especially the beef curry special, which one reviewer calls unreal, and a set deal with salt and chilli chicken and beef chow mien. Close behind are the family feasts and large-group menus, described as problem-free, and saver A and saver B, called excellent value with loads of food. The curry sauce is called perfect, and the phone staff polite. Complaints centre on value and delivery. One family special brought three chicken curries with a tiny fried rice and chips, so the meal was mainly curry sauce. Another reviewer waited an hour for a delivery and was told cooking had not started, and a long-time customer found munch boxes and share boxes are not done. One dislikes the basmati rice. Even so, one order arrived hot, and relatives who tried a Christmas feast said they would order again.
