- Stephanie Shields
“Awful takeaway meal this evening. Spend over £50 and over half of what we got was dreadful. Ordered duck pancakes (found bone in the shredded duck), prawn toast (tasted stale like it was made 2 days ago), spring rolls (soggy), sweet and sour chicken balls (batter was horrible! So thick and the chicken was like rubber) the fried rice was dry too. All in all an extremely disappointing takeaway. Will not order from here again”

“It’s difficult leaving a negative review because we have always had good food from here. Unfortunately everything we ordered today 28/Feb was awful and far too spicy.Not sure if it’s a new chef or they were just too busy. Everything was so hot like vindaloo 🔥 hot, noodles were over cooked and soggy. We will have to give this Chinese a miss for a while. Lips still burning from the chillies and partner drinking milk to soothe his tummy. Everything has been chucked.”

“£17.90 no prawn crackers, chips taste like they were cooked in last week's engine oil”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the friendly staff and quick delivery, with the satay chicken singled out as gorgeous and generous portions, lots of menu choice and reasonable prices repeated across the positive reviews. Several note the phone line is always busy, which some read as a sign of a good takeaway, and one suggests starting early to get through. Card payment over the phone gets a mention as a welcome addition. The complaints are specific and cluster around recent orders. Long-time customers describe quality slipping, with one receiving chips that seemed left over from the day before, mushed into the rice and curry, and spring rolls that tasted odd. Another found everything as hot as a vindaloo with overcooked, soggy noodles. A third reports a bone in the shredded duck pancakes, stale prawn toast, soggy spring rolls and rubbery sweet and sour chicken balls in thick batter, while another says the chips tasted of old engine oil and the prawn crackers were missing. One reviewer says the whole meal was binned.
