Customer Review Summary
Chicken black bean sauce is the dish reviewers return to, with one holidaymaker calling it the best they have tasted on both of two orders. Close behind are the spring rolls, honey spare ribs, satay chicken and a chicken curry that another diner found beautiful. Portions are repeatedly described as generous or massive, and several say everything arrived hot, with nothing particularly greasy, even the prawn crackers. Staff come across as friendly and welcoming, and one long-time customer says the girls happily explain what dishes taste like. Orders for collection are described as ready when promised, and one delivery to a caravan arrived well ahead of the quoted hour. The complaints are specific. One reviewer found the special curry tasteless and bland with a very runny sauce, and another says the chips are always undercooked and hard. A regular who had never had a problem with collection received a plain noodle order by delivery that went wrong. One reviewer also remarks that the kitchen looks clean.

“Have used these place for many years, never had a poor meal, if there is something different you fancy just ask and the girls are only too happy to tell you what they taste like.Keep doing what you do best!”

“We used Cantonese Take Away twice on our holiday. The service on both occasions for our collection was excellent. Staff were lovely and food was ready when they said it would be. Our first order of spring rolls, honey spare ribs, chicken black bean sauce and satay chicken was all first class. Our second order of chicken black bean sauce and special curry was not so. The black bean sauce meal on both occasions was the best we have tasted but the curry wasn’t good. Pretty tasteless and bland with a very runny sauce, so I would steer clear of this dish. My opinion. Others may like it… Other than that though, the food was very good and I would recommend this take away.”
