Customer Review Summary
Huge portions are what reviewers raise most, and they pair them with food described as fresh and tasty and with good value, one noting it is much cheaper than some other takeaways. Beef chow mein earns specific praise for beef cooked properly, crispy rather than chewy, and another reviewer calls the house special rice and chaomian delicious. Friendly staff and short waits also come up, and a couple of long-term customers say they have never had a problem, one having worked through the menu many times since the 1990s. The only criticism is a single note that the S & S pork balls were too big and doughy, which that reviewer calls a matter of personal preference. Several recommend giving the place a try, and one newcomer, searching for a replacement after a favourite restaurant closed, says it was the first to beat several other recommended takeaways.

“First time ordering from here, I’ve been looking for a replacement Chinese since my favourite restaurant closed down, I have tried several recommendations all of which have been rubbish so I was happily surprised that the food from here was lovely huge portions and much cheaper than some other places.
