- Peter Wainwright
“The worst Chinese ever. Tasteless chicken chow menu, watery and tasteless chicken and black bean sauce, tasteless special chow mein. One star for fried rice and one star for crispy duck.”
- Daniel Jeal
“Average Chinese, they also ONLY accept cash (which decade are we in?). I never carry cash and pay with everything on my phone. There are better Chinese locally that accept card or food apps so I can't imagine I will be back. On the plus side there is easy parking.”
