Customer Review Summary
Reviews split sharply. Positive diners single out the sweet and sour battered chicken, the vegetable rice with fresh ingredients, and vegan Hong Kong balls and vegan satay, while one says a menu B for two fed three. Two longtime customers say the food declined after the place changed hands, describing bland rice, cold tough chilli chicken, and chicken that tasted of nothing. One still credited the ribs.

“First time we have tried here since it changed hands and very very disappointed. The rice was bland and a funny colour. Chilli chicken was cold and tough. 1 star is for the ribs. We will not be ordering from here again. Such a shame as it was always our first choice when ordering from Maidenhead”

“We all enjoyed our takeaways. The crispy beef and chilli, the beef with mushroom (and added onions) were all tasty but especially the sweet and sour battered chicken was a favourite. The vegetable rice dish was fabulous with lovely fresh ingredients. There was no skimping on ingredients which seems to be happening at some places. Will definitely order again. Thank you!”
