Customer Review Summary
Chicken curry is the dish reviewers name most, with one praising its nice chunks of chicken and curry sauce as a favourite that has stayed consistently good across visits years apart. Several describe decent portions and friendly staff, and one long-time customer says the people may change but the food is always the same. Opinion splits sharply on quality, though. Two reviewers complain of grease. One describes a pool of oil on the curry sauce, a soggy pancake roll, dry egg fried rice and soggy chips. The other found the chicken balls oily and reports the chicken in the curry was pink inside, and also says the sweet and sour sauce was forgotten. A regular who loves the food asks for less salt, pointing to the rice. One reviewer notes the soup leaking, and another reports watching a worker throw a plastic bag outside the front door. Still, one happy diner says the food was finished before they remembered to take photos.
