Delivery driver welcomed themselves into my home whilst our children was inside. Demanding for payment yet I stated multiple times we live within the Delivery status to either be taken via online or free. We have ordered from here many times and never had this problem! The food was cold and unfortunately inedible. Had a call from the shop apologising for the delivery lady. We've again never had this issue normally gorgeous food and service..what a let down and an event that put us off our food..

Popped in on the way home and ordered 2 meals to be delivered. I can honestly say it's the worst Chinese meal I have ever experienced. The curry sauce was a peculiar khaki green colour, slightly sweet, congealed and cold. The rice was OK but far too much of it and was also cold. I suspect that both rice and curry sauce had been reheated, although not very well. The cost of £25, including delivery which was less than a mile was exorbitant. You live and learn and I have learnt not to repeat this experience. Don't waste your money, just buy a chilled meal from a supermarket, it'll cost less and you'll be able to eat it.

It was certainly a good idea to place an order, since everything was delicious and ready at the time we ordered it. Very friendly staff. Totally recommended.

I ordered a meal for collection on Friday, I collected the meal and the staff were not very friendly. I headed of home to enjoy my meal. I had pork with mushrooms which turned out to be pork with vegetables and a few extra mushrooms that was different to the rest of the dish. The chicken curry had been pre cooked then warmed in a microwave and was split, cold and rubber chicken. I also had pork noodles and pork fried rice which again was barely warm and seemed pre cooked as they had a fridge smell and flavour. If they are not going to cook fresh they should say on the menu so people can go to Iceland and get a better take out.

Decent Chinese and delivery is always prompt in my experience. I highly recommend the hot and sour soup and the Mongolian crispy pork. The salt and garlic chicken is excellent too but the salt in the name is not lying to you.

During our stay in Shaftsbury we wanted a Chinese. After reading the mixed reviews we were a little unsure. But i must say it's one of the nicest Chineses we have had. Food was piping hot when it arrived, it was very tasty and super quick delivery. Highly recommend to anyone who is unsure. You will not regret it

Can only pay on cash and PayPal :( House chow mien stinks :( Singapore noodle was sound :) Chicken balls was a dub with lots of great sauce :) The ribs were soaked in sauce yet somehow dry and had no meat :( The Mongolian chicken was flames :) Prawn crackers were ight :/ Mid would go again Only go if you hungry

I used to love getting a takeaway from here. Nowadays however, you never know if your food will have the same quality as last time you’ve ordered. It’s always a lucky dip. I have had amazing food and I have had food that wasn’t so great + cold. Moreover, this is the 2nd or 3rd time now within 6 months that the prices have massively increased. What used to be a fairly reasonable Chinese takeaway is just overpriced now. You might as well go out eating in a restaurant and end up paying less P.p. I do know that inflation is a massive thing right now in the UK. However the price increase of £3 -£3.50 PER dish within 6 months is unreasonable. The prices at this Chinese rise faster than the highstreet prices. Just extremely expensive! Unfortunately I will not order from here anymore and order elsewhere in Shaftesbury/Gillingham which really is a shame as I have regularly ordered here over the past 5 years.

Always order from here, been a loyal customer for years. Only ever had 1 issue and that was during covid which I’m sure we could all agree, 1 issue in many years of great service is nothing. Always recommend for their customer service, freshness of food and range on the menu.

We are local but this is not our local Chinese but on our way home tonight, we might now drive an extra 15mins it was a really delicious Chinese takeaway, the flavour and quality of each dish was fab. We all agreed it felt a healthier less oily heavy Chinese but with so much flavour. I never leave reviews but wanted to share this feedback.

So... We placed a very big order. There was a Singapore noodles missing and we received a bbq ribs instead of salt and chilli. Despite that however, the 20 or so dishes we ordered were competently prepared and tasted freshly cooked. 3 separate orders that all arrived at the same time. 6.5 (lost a point for the mix up on the orders so should be 7.5) /10 and yes, I would reccomend.

Shame. Just open the new shop and I turned up at opening time. Reheated chips and ribs. So I left it a few weeks and just went in at 7pm. Again reheated chips but with the added bonus of a poisonous young blond serving. My advice is to go elsewhere as these guys really don’t seem too care anymore!

The Chicken was disgusting and slimy. The food was so salty it was inedible and when we phoned them to return the food they refused because "we had tried it" I will never order from them again! No compensation offered or any solution to resolve the situation. Horrible food and even worse service. Shame I have to give them one star.

i paid by PayPal and the delivery was made, the driver told my wife how much it was and she payed cash plus a delivery tip as she didn't know it was payed for, now in a dispute with the owner who seems to think the delivery driver is more important than, us the customer?, the delivery driver who works Monday Wednesday and Friday has lied, saying we gave him a £1 delivery charge and a £1 tip, this guy is very dishonest and i hope he has been sacked

Not great. Dim sum tasted rubbery and weird. Chicken cashew +yellow b sauce the chick was slimey and just too sugary. Pork balls v generous but offputting size with doughy batter. Prob not helped by 1¼ hr wait for delivery. Beef and ginger; chow mein; mix veg in tom yum were fine. So, a mixed bag. Unsure whether we'll order again.

Ordered food at 18.30. 2 hours later and still not here. Not impressed glad I ordered with PayPal at least I'll get my order refunded. Terrible customer service called twice first time was told 20 minutes, rang again 40 minutes later and told the driver was leaving. Doesn't take 30 minutes to drive 3 miles up the road. Won't be ordering again.

A hidden gem in Shaftesbury. The take away seems to be busy but the restaurant is usually quite empty so it lacks atmosphere. Don't let that put you off because the food is absolutely fabulous!!!!! Freshly cooked and delicious and if you eat from the "All you can eat" menu, it's less than £20 each. We've been going here for about 10 years and never had a bad meal yet.

Not a great experience. Customer service can be improved further. We wanted to eat in and mentioned that on reception. We picked the wrong menu and was not told that menu to eat in is different. The lady at the end gave us the order as a take away. They didn't do anything about it even later.

Only used this cafe once. The food was good, but I ordered a sandwich with no mushrooms, only to find that there were mushrooms in it. I was given a another sandwich, with " you could have taken them off, they won't kill you!". IF I WANTED MUSHROOMS I WOLKD HAVE ASKED FOR IT... COSTOMER SERVICES, LEAVES A LOT TO BE DESIRED!

Visited whilst on holiday in Weymouth whilst we drove out to the local towns. We saw the Costa in Blandford Forum but sadly this branch wasn’t up to the costa standards. We went in at 9.30am and tables not cleared, my wifes coffee cup was dirty and we asked for a clean cup to which the lady member of staff tuttered, then the toilet was filthy. I did let the member of staff know but she looked uninterested.
