“We get food from here at least 3 times a month sometimes more.. it’s the best Chinese around. They are so friendly and the food is so fresh and tasty”

“We live in Hamble and have no nice nearby Chinese. I looked at this online and reviews looked good. I chose to collect and pay cash. I am really happy with my choice, the first time in a long time I feel really satisfied and would definitely return. I haven't had a Chinese like this for years. The only complaint would be I ordered generally non spicy items apart from the crispy beef. I didn't like the sauce it was in, personal taste. Somewhere on the plate was something else spicy which I didn't expect but it was bareable. 100% now my new Chinese go to.”

“This is a Chinese takeaway therefore they do not cater for sit in service. The staff are very friendly and their prices are fair and in par with other Chinese takeaways in Woolston plus you can watch your food being coocked. Orders are prepared quickly and there are some seats for tired legs if needed. They operate a cash only payment scheme but there is a cash machine directly opposite. Telephoned orders are welcome for collection and they provide a delivery service.”

“The best takeaway in Woolston, period. These are some really hardworking bunch of guys who prepare fresh food right there in front of you. We always ask them to make our order spicy and are never disappointed. We love the prawn starters, …”

“Clean place, food cooked in front of you while you watch. Free parking right out side the shop door, great for customers with health restrictions or wheel chair dependant. 11 October 2020 menu had a 50 pence price increase. 13.02.21. Ordered take away costing £28.70 which included vegetable pancake rolls, at home found the pancake rolls had no vegetables inside them, so remember not to order then and waste £2.20 🤔🙄 Update review 11.06.21. 👀☹️ Yet again another price raise on all items in the menu, some items up by 30 pence. If your viewing the blue menu at home add 30 pence to each item you are ordering just to cover the unknown cost 😉 🤔👍 If collecting your order, pick up the new RED menu with the new prices. If ordering by phone for delivery ask them to put a copy of their new menu in your bag.”
