Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split sharply, but most return for the lemon chicken and chicken curry, with the portions of food and huge chip servings repeatedly called good size. Several praise the friendly woman behind the counter and a polite delivery driver, and one calls it the best Chinese in Merthyr after knowing the family for years. Delivery is described as very quick by two reviewers. Others are harsh. One reports egg fried rice that was tasteless, BBQ sauce with no taste and chips that were uncooked like cardboard, though the chicken balls were half decent. Another describes chips that seemed days old, salty curry and overcooked chicken after a long wait, and a third says two bags of chips were missing from an order and the shop asked them to pay again. One reviewer says it has gone downhill, and another notes cash only payment, paid with cash they happened to have.
