Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the salt and pepper chips, with several calling them the best they have had from a Chinese takeaway, alongside crispy beef and chicken chow mein. One reviewer praises a roast pork chow mein as a decently sized portion, and another found the set meal's curry, chicken balls and spring rolls cleaner and less salty than usual. Many describe a friendly, welcoming family-run business with service that stays pleasant while waiting. The main complaint is timing: one reviewer reports a delivery arriving near an hour late for the second time and having to ring back each order, while another received a delay email adding more than half an hour. Quality is also uneven for some. One set meal's beef curry had hardly any sauce, tasteless onions and very chewy beef, and another reviewer finds the chips a little hard. One reviewer notes the shop is cash only. One order missing an item was brought separately with free poppadoms and fortune cookies.

“The best chinese in Swansea. We have tried so many in Swansea and honestly nobody comes close to the quality and taste. They are family run and they are always very welcoming and polite. Used to collect but have been using delivery since we moved. They are fast and everything is always hot. Anyone not giving 5 stars has no taste for good chinese food.”

“Atmosphere is 5 stars as they take care of your order quickly. So I ordered the set meal for one and it was different to what I'm used to when it comes to what bits have known as chinese style curry ( sorry if I have the nationality incorrect at all ) the chicken balls were crispy and fresh, spring roll was tasty but what was unique is the curry and fried rice. I found it to be a much cleaner and tastier experience because often the food can be really really jacked up with salt. I personally preferred this plus they brought it to me a few doors down as i wasn't feeling great. In fact if was so good today I had a all in one tray meal, rice, chips, sauce couple of chicken balls, yes yes it's bot good to do 2 days in a town but the food was great and it's so so affordable. 100% recommended this”
