  • Samantha Jarvis
    “£30 straight in the bin! absolutely vile. Worst Chinese I've ever had, well takeaway for that matter. We are not fussy eaters by any means so it says something that the lot got thrown away. Unfortunate because the delivery was fast and food hot just inedible.”
  • Janet Dolan

Customer Review Summary

Chow mein draws the most comment, and mostly unfavourably. One reviewer found a chicken and king prawn version with only a few prawns and chicken that tasted frozen. Another called it the worst they had tasted, and a third likened a prawn dish to supermarket noodles with six prawns added. Close behind are complaints about temperature and quality: cold sauce, cold frozen chips, a dry egg foo yung that never got the curry sauce requested, and spare ribs described as "definitely spare". Service is split. Friendly staff and generous portions earn praise, and one first-time customer found the sauces, meat and service all beautiful. Another felt interrogated by repeated questions about onions, peppers and bean sprouts in each dish. Delivery was fast and hot for one household, yet another order never arrived and the phone went unanswered. The rice was called lovely, and one reviewer settled on average food, saying they had had better.
