Customer Review Summary
Reviewers repeatedly single out the gluten free handling as the standout, with several coeliac diners describing the staff as knowledgeable over the phone and diligent about cross contamination, allowing repeat visits without issue. Close behind, regulars praise the sweet and sour pekin style chicken and the Singapore noodles, and multiple reviews call the food well cooked, hot, and good value. The staff draw consistent warmth, described as friendly and chatty. Against this, one reviewer found a recent order bland, saying the black bean sauce and prawn with vegetables lacked taste and the spring rolls didn't taste good, and said they would not return. A separate reviewer reports being dissatisfied on a recent visit after a history of good experiences, though without detailing what went wrong. Most describe quick cooking and reliable results across years of ordering.
