Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the big portions, and the vegetarian options come up repeatedly, from tofu noodles loaded with veg to a mixed vegetable chow mein one diner calls the best they have had. Close behind are the noodle boxes, chicken chow mein, chicken with black bean sauce, crispy beef, dumplings and a Master Secret Satay Sauce one regular praises. Several describe quick delivery and friendly drivers, and one has ordered weekly for years. Complaints are fewer but specific. One reviewer says food arrived dry with no sauce, another found little sauce in the chicken, and a third calls the tofu noodles a little greasy. One describes a rude delivery driver who claimed a long wait at the door, and another found the shop looked dirty and the till staff unsmiling. A regular notes weekends are not as good as weekdays. Even the critical reviews tend to concede the portions were fairly good, and one diner ordered chicken chow mein, fried rice and chips with curry and left calling the place true to its name.

“Food arrived fast in like 5mins, was dry no sauce on anything - maybe just ordered the wrong thing. The lady on the till doesn't speak fluent English so was hard to ask for recommendations. She never smiled not once or made any kind of small talk. The shop looked dirty and kinda gross. The man working in the kitchen smiled when he gave me my food though so that was something. The vibes was odd, really quiet. The one positive was the portions were fairly good, then again, you'd expect that to be the case when you spend £20. Honestly, probably wont go there again - I gave a 3-star, wasn't bad but overall wasn't somewhere I'd want to return to. My advice is to make sure you know what you're ordering to manage your expectations. For one person you should aim to spend about £12-15, anymore and you'll have leftovers.”

“Rude delivery driver from the store. Rang the door bell once, I came down to collect my order and the delivery driver was extremely rude saying he had been waiting for 20 minutes when this was not the case at all. He tried to contact me but no record of missed calls either. Food was okay, not a lot of sauce in the chicken. Will not be using this place again for very poor customer service.”

“We order off Just Eat here almost weekly and have been loyal customers for years, as their selection of vegetarian food is amazing. The portions are big, and the food is really good value for money and super tasty. You have to try the Master Secret Satay Sauce, it's the best authentic satay sauce in Manchester! Delivery is always fast and the drivers they use are really nice and friendly. The only thing we find is that weekend is not as good, I guess it's much busier at the weekend than on weekdays.”
