Customer Review Summary
Curry draws the most comment, and it splits reviewers. One calls the chicken and beef curry fried rice the best tasting curry in a long time and really spicy, though the salt and pepper chips were too nippy for them. Heat is the recurring complaint: one diner could not eat a curry sauce that was too hot, and another who asked for a mild beef curry says it still made their nose and eyes run. Quality drift is the wider worry. A longtime regular reports the breast of chicken curry turning tough and a king prawn curry arriving with about half the usual prawns, and another describes grey chicken in the fried rice. Others fault a bland chicken noodle soup, a chow mein with mushrooms and dry beef, and chicken wings left to sweat in a bag. Praise centers on the won ton soup, with fresh dumplings, lemon grass and white cabbage, and ribs with more ribs than sauce, while one regular says the food always arrives fresh, warm and quick.

“Best Chinese myself and my partner have ever tried. We phone the Original Yee Tung at least a few times a week. Always polite when answering the phone to their customers, their food is always fresh, warm, delicious and always quick to deliver.”

“First time using this place, thought l'd try a new take away. Chicken noodle soup was bland and looked depressing and the chicken chow mein was stinking. No flavour what so ever. Couldn't even manage half of it, making me boak. Will not be back. Would not recommend. Friendlies and Tao are the best ones about.”

“Lovely beef and onions in my beef curry but I specifically specified MILD. Nose and eyes running. How difficult is it to make a mild curry. Won’t be back.”

“Ordered a king prawn curry last night 29/05/25 Normally you get 10 maybe 12 prawns last night only 6. Being regular customers been going there for 49 years these cutbacks are ridiculous”

“Literally order from here several times a month because the options in motherwell are so bad. Not going back after tonight. Prices bumped with no warning on phone, mushy chicken wings because they cook them then leave them to sweat in a bag for 20 mins before delivery even after asking them not to, items missing from order and useless promise of free extras next time I spend more money for subpar service. Custom lost.”
