Customer Review Summary
Salt and pepper chicken draws the most attention, with several diners calling it the best they've had and praising the big portions and good value, though it's also the dish behind the sharpest complaints: one reviewer describes it as tasting uncooked with unpleasant chips, and another likens it to under-fried frozen nuggets, calling the meal rubbish and tasteless. Close behind the praise, reviewers highlight the beef curry with fried rice and freshly cooked chips, and one diner flags oddly salty, inedible seaweed alongside a thin, synthetic-tasting sweet and sour sauce despite otherwise enjoying the meal. One longtime customer notes the shop has changed hands repeatedly, describing quality swinging between excellent and clean to reheated and off, and says they won't risk returning after their last order. Others report consistently nice, freshly cooked food and friendly staff, recommending it to those in the area.
