Customer Review Summary
Fried rice draws the most comment and divides reviewers. Special fried rice is called really special and a portion big enough for two, and another reviewer finds the fried rice tasty. Others call the chicken fried rice bland, and one reports rice that smelled and tasted like a bad drain, going on to question the food hygiene. Chicken and sweetcorn soup is close behind, described as lovely and as probably the best one reviewer has had. Beef with chilli and garlic is called always good, with plenty of food, and a chop suey roll is greasy but big and tasty. The complaints are specific and fairly frequent. Kin Do ribs came tough, dry and gristly, and the prawn crackers tasted only of cooking oil. The crispy chilli beef had a sauce likened to tinned ravioli sauce. A Singapore vermicelli arrived with no meat, and one reviewer says the fish was pangasius rather than cod. One delivery arrived cold and well past the quoted time, though the driver was described as very pleasant.

“I won't be trying this place again. Once was enough. Only comments I can make is on the crispy chilli beef, not good at all. The sauce was like sauce you get over ravioli out of a tin, never had a crispy beef like it in my life and hopefully not again. Rice was very bland aswell so nearly all of it went in the bin”

“Food not nice at all. Kin Do ribs were really tough, dry and gristly. Had trouble getting the meat off the bone. They gave us rice instead of chips with the salt and pepper chicken. Chicken fried rice was bland, and the prawn crackers were disgusting- tasted only of cooking oil. I was nearly sick. Overcharged by £2 and mostly inedible. Give it a miss.”
