Customer Review Summary
The curry sauce draws repeated praise, with reviewers calling it excellent and lovely alongside orders like king prawn in curry sauce with chicken fried rice and big fresh prawns. Close behind, the won ton soup, seaweed and barbecue ribs sweet and sour, and Singapore vermicelli find loyal repeat orderers, with chicken described as melting in the mouth. Several note delivery and collection are fast and food regularly arrives red hot. Recurring complaints center on salt and pepper chicken and chips, described in different visits as soggy and undercooked and, in one case, containing hair; another diner reports raw onions and disagreeable batter in a Hong Kong king prawn order, and one mentions a missing side that had to be requested again by phone. One reviewer also describes a counter staff member shouting during a complaint and other staff laughing in Chinese afterward. Most reviewers, though, report food arriving hot within the stated delivery time.

“Best food around quick delivery always hot”

“Had Hong Kong king prawn with chips and rice for two of us and it was absolutely horrible the onions were raw and the batter was discussing , had to throw it away. Would not recommend unless you’re desperate and had 10 pints of vodka before ordering.Our usual Chinese was closed so gave it a chance,never again.”
- Kevin O'Connor
“I have seen some reviews of this take away, I just dont get it, I have had food from New Oriental so many times, I think it is the best Chinese food I have had and it is consistent. Delivery is fast, collection is super fast, the curry sauce is excellent, won ton soup is my favourite. Very few businesses deserve a one star, this place is definitely not one of them, Remember these reviews are the life blood of local businesses, it can ruin livelihoods, please do it with care.”
