Customer Review Summary

Ribs draw the most praise here, with reviewers singling out the Peking ribs and the BQ ribs, and one calling the takeaway consistently good over years of ordering. Close behind are the hot, fresh food and generous portions, with one reviewer describing fluffy egg fried rice with good flavour and chicken balls that were good but needed more seasoning. Staff are described as polite and helpful, and delivery as very fast. Several call it good value, though one longtime regular says portions have shrunk, prices have risen and the menu is unclear over the past year. The complaints centre on the salt and pepper dishes. One reviewer found the chicken and chips smothered in spicy pepper powder and inedible, another said the chicken tasted reheated and the soft noodles were not fresh, and a third gave the salt and pepper ribs a flat thumbs down. One reviewer also regrets that cards are not accepted, and the rice and chips are the sides reviewers mention most.

    “We didn’t have a good experience unfortunately. We had salt n pepper chips and chicken pieces… it was smothered (and I mean smothered as if the lid had come off) in a very spicy pepper powder and was inedible for us. We didn’t enjoy it at all, didn’t eat it and won’t be going back.”

    “Moved local to the area and I've not eaten a Chinese meal like this for years. Peking ribs are to die for! Staff are always polite and helpful. Will definitely be using this establishment again and again!”

    “I got salt and pepper chicken balls, salt and pepper chips and egg fried rice. The chicken balls were good but needed more seasoning in my opinion The chips were good too but similar opinion Egg fried rice was lovely and fluffy and had good flavour. The food itself is very hot and fresh (I ordered collection.) and has definitely got potential to be perfect with small improvements! The portions are generous and I struggled to finish even half. My order came to £15.20 but considering I could definitely feed two is not expensive in my opinion considering how expensive places like McDonald’s have gotten. There’s a lovely amount of spice and if there were to be more seasoning added these could absolutely be a 5*. The young man who served me was polite and the place looks clean. The pictures show how much was left after plating my food but my partner also had a portion before this picture was taken to show how good the portions are! I would recommend this place to others”
