“I’m a bit disappointed, had one just over a week ago, it was amazing. 10/10. Told all friends and family it’s the one. To which friends went and had one and said it wasn’t great. We ordered again last night, the chips was awful, the rice was slushy , worse rice Iv eaten. Chow mein was full of water. Probably one of the worse Chinese Iv had. How does it go from 10/10 to 2/10 with in a week. Probably won’t order again now sadly.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise hot, tasty food from this takeaway, with salt and pepper chips singled out as a must and one visitor citing proper chicken breast and decent portions. Several describe easy ordering, friendly people behind the counter, and quick service even when busy, and one calls the discount after 10 orders a good system. Consistency is the main complaint. One diner went from an excellent first order to slushy rice, awful chips and a watery chow mein a week later, and another says quality has dropped and prices have risen. One reviewer counted five small cubes of chicken in each of four chicken curries with dry rice, and was offered only extra curry sauce, with no refund or replacement. Another waited over two hours on a phone order that was quoted at an hour. A loyalty complaint notes the 10-order discount link expired after about 10 days. A few mention a limited drink selection and no delivery at the moment. One reviewer prefers Singapore noodles from other places, though still calls theirs pretty good.
