“First time using this takeaway this evening. Excellent food, with lovely staff who were happy to make modifications to menu items for me. Generous portions (the set meal for one could have done two servings). Great value for money and really tasty, good quality food and ingredients. This will be my preferred choice for takeaway in welshpool. . Couldn't fault it.”

Customer Review Summary
Generous portions are what reviewers raise most, with several saying a single set meal or main stretches to two servings. Diners name a chow mein, chicken with ginger and spring onions, and a Szechuan duck with plenty of meat and a thin but spicy sauce, and describe the food as delicious, fresh and not swimming in grease. Staff are called lovely and friendly, with one reviewer noting they happily modified menu items, and a few mention low prices. The picture is not uniformly positive. One reviewer found the pork balls in a thick, doughy batter that was not crispy and the special fried rice stodgy and bland beneath a meaty stew, recommending only the duck. Another called the salt and pepper chips dark and rock-hard and said the meat dishes ended up in the bin. The waiting area is described as austere and very cold. Still, a first-time customer notes the food was still hot when it got home.
