- Natalie Hancock
“I really don’t know where to 5 star reviews are This is by far worst Chinese I’ve ever tried Everything was bland. Undercooked …”
- Jason Griffiths
“Very average Chinese. Not sure how it has so many 5* ratings. Same portion sizes as others in the area, basic food, chow mien a bit mushroom and onion heavy, nice curry sauce, thought chips might have been homemade chips as it described its self as a chippy but just standard frozen chips. Doesn’t deliver which is strange.”
- Simon Spalding
“Excellent tasty food vegetables fresh and not over cooked meat lean and tender generous portions at a good price and a very clean establishment.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split on the food, with most calling it tasty, including a special chow mein and food not too salty. One describes fresh, tender, generous portions in a clean establishment. Others disagree: one calls it bland and undercooked, another finds the chow mein heavy on mushroom and onion, and the chips are standard frozen ones, not homemade.
