DO NOT EAT FROM HERE! They have a infestation of rats I regularly visit the salon next door and you can hear the rats inside the wall scratching they have been reported numerous times but nothings being done they have even painted over there sign and called themselves something eles! Do not eat from here

This place has reopened under a different name with the same Chinese management. Quality is still horrible, watch out where you are ordering from on just eat. There have been reports of nails and insects within the food here, very poor hygiene!!

Waiting over 2 hours for the food is when it came it was cold don’t use this place was ya of money

2 hours and 20 minutes for a delivery on a Sunday evening that said less than an hour on Just Eat. Shop then tried to charge an extra delivery charge as they claimed their driver had been and couldn't get hold of us. Their delivery driver never bothered their backside to call us. Horrific service- will never, ever use these liars again. Oh and by the way-the food is barking. The dog wasn't even interested in it.

Fair prices👍very pleasant staff, quick service, very clean. Food cooked to order fresh and hot. Chow Mein is delicious.

The worst Chinese takeaway I’ve had! Wish I had read the reviews before I ordered and stuck with the takeaway we normally ordered from. We ordered 6 dishes and we can honestly say we did not enjoy any of them. Really poor quality and taste, the pad Thai was the worst and not a pad Thai. Won’t be wasting my money and ordering again!

Absolutely disgusting food what a waste of money will never have it again

DISGUSTING!! Will never eat from here again! Food tasteless and does not resemble anything remotely edible. Chewy fatty cold no flavour felt sick after one mouthful.

Completely awful food. Had Sweet and sour king prawns — tasted so bad. Can't believe they are allowed on Just-eat-com. Shamelessly bad food quality

Absolutely awful! I ordered food online. Waited an hour and a half. Delivery told me it would arrive at 18.10. At 18.30 I finally called the restaurant and they said they had to cancel my order. Even after notifying me they were on the way. Absolutely terrible. Do not order from here!!! Terrible terrible service and were so unhelpful to get my refund. Told me they ended up being too far to deliver (sat nav said 11 minutes!)

It used to be a very good Chinese and I would order salt and pepper chicken and crispy shredded beef without fail. Under new ownership, it isn't a patch on what used to be. I ate my takeaway and felt sad on the inside.

First time ordering from this place and I gotta say I was a tad nervous after reading the reviews. That said, the place aint that bad at all. Delivery was 30 minutes early, driver was friendly, Tom Yum soup and Pad Thai were very flavorful as were a handful of the other appetizers. We even got some salt an pepper wings for free. I will have to point out that the chop suey rolls smelled and tasted like amonia. I'm guessing they're not made in store so I'd strongly suggest changing your supplier for these or taking a look at how these are being stored. Apart from that, it was a pretty nice experience :)

I thought that I would give this takeaway a second try as the First time was appalling and I had to ask for a refund. My second attempt at ordering from this takeaway resulted in missing items once again and my chicken curry had at least half a centimetre of oil floating on the top of it . The first time I rang they pretended they could not speak English to just eat, The second time I have rang them I asked for the same person I have just spoke to (Matt) who ironically was the person I know I was speaking to at the time, he said he was not that guy, but seemed to know exactly what I was talking about! The food may be value for money, but in all honestly it’s crap, two times is enough for me. The food did also turn up late, to which I didn’t even mention to them. No one at this takeaway actually wants to know, and haven’t bothered to even offer an apology. It’s not that it bothers me that much, that the food was bad, it is the attitude! Personally I would like to pay a little bit more the better quality!

If you can get the dish right.. its really nice. I get different dishes from different places, but this one seems to be my most regular. Just make sure you repeat the order on the phone as mistakes often happen.

Its getting better king prawn in black pepper is good

Received the wrong items and some items missing in the order, and instead of listening to what we needed replacing etc, insisted that the "chicken balls" were actually Sweet an Sour Chicken. Won't be ordering again.

Ribs were discusting and spring roll filled with oil go to the one down the road not worth your money

We used to call this chippy picky toes coz there was toenails in the chips

They gave me old shredded chicken and wanted from me £2,50 for give me new one!!!!

The worst experience ever... I ordered chicken & sweetcorn soup, spring rolls and sour & sweet chicken. The taste of the soup was terrible... I couldn't eat any bite... it seems someone put fairy in the soup. Spring rolls were tasteless as well.

Tasty prawn crackers. Reasonable price and delivery. Lovely food. Thanks! 😀

Quality, Excellent Value for Money.

Egg fried rice wasn’t to bad and sausage wasn’t bad but asked for meat spring rolls they looked really good took one bite didn’t even bite it completely and nearly threw up my partner took a bite and had to spit it back out and she ran to the toilet to be sick I would not recommend to anyone the spring rolls smelt like they was off best place I would recommend is GOOD FOODS in Swinton on Worsley Road the meat spring rolls there are really nice and so is all the rest of the food will never be going Famous Chef again only picked it because Good Foods is closed on a Tuesday ⭐️FAMOUS CHEF 🤢😷🤒☠️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️GOOD FOODS 🤤😋😍😊

Very good and tasty Chinese cuisine. Great prices and very friendly staff. Higly recommend!!!

Nice staff, good food, and reasonable prices.

Good quick classic "English" Chinese.

Even though ordering for delivery is a bonus... I regret not going in and actually talking to whoever is taking the order. I had made a phone order and told them i cannot eat beansprouts and asked for PLAIN soft noodles.. Instead I got plain chow mein with beansprouts! this is the 3rd time I've received this in my orders, and by the time I open them, the driver has already gone.

Food was ok Don't order, useless! Delivered few bits of our order. When I called they advised the rest is on its way. Didn't bother to tell us. Waiting for the other half and still pieces missing. Called restaurant, they didn't care and said they can't deliver it. Cannot believe we'd ordered food and paid for it for them not to bother? Man on the phone was useless. Can't believe a place can be so rubbish!

Waited over an hour for the food to come even though it's round the corner and when it got here, the food wasn't edible, rice was dry as ever, chicken was soggy and didn't taste like chicken at all. None of the meat in special fried rice tasted cooked. Wouldn't recommend. Probably going to be ill tomorrow!! And the chicken ball was disgusting.

I ordered my food through a takeaway app. When I ordered from the paper takeaway menu it clearly states you get free rice with the meals. Because I ordered through the app they did not bring my 2 free rice which is a disgrace and something that I should have had . I called them up stating my issue and the person on the phone stated the free rice was for telephone orders only which is rubbish as it doesn't say this anywhere and I've got this option when I have Walked into the takeaway. When trying to resolve my issue the person working at the takeaway put the phone down on me. Steer clear!

I could really think of anything positive to say about the food, hence the title name... it's the only good thing about this place. I ordered my favourites after having a menu posted to my address earlier in the week. To start I had chicken and sweet corn soup... I've had desserts with less sugar in than this soup, it was disgusting! For my main, I had beef in green pepper and black bean sauce, the beef was gelatinous, there were 2 pieces on mushy green pepper, the best thing about the dish was the rice (even that was clumpy, overcooked and unpleasant) I think I've thrown more of my meal away than I've ate. I seriously would never ever recommend this place to anyone.

Fast delivery via JustEat, recommend chicken curry, fried rice and salt and pepper chips

Waited 90 mins for food and it was freezing cold. Phoned them up 3 times to ask about my food but they didn't have a clue wot was going on an they put phone down on me.disgusting service. WONT ever use this place again.dont bother with this place peeps

We ordered food from here as we usually did. This time however the food was an hour late and got to us cold. The delivery driver was incredibly rude; he told my girlfriend to shut up twice and subsequently told us to not order from them again. We will be taking his advice and I implore everyone else to follow his advice aswell. We then phoned the takeaway to complain about this driver and apparently no manager or supervisor was available. This means we had to leave our complaint with the person who answered the call with no guarantee our complaint will be handled appropriately. Avoid if possible.

Food has gone down hill.. I used to enjoy it here but the last couple of times have not been good.. I don't think the hygiene is quite what it should be.

Tried a few Chinese takeaways in Salford and this is definitely the best, try the special fried rice it's amazing.

Food is hit and miss and the delivery driver always has to phone me up to ask for directions

Food was excellent but the service was pretty terrible, took over an hour to arrive and the driver got lost.

Food tasted nice, but won't be using Just Eat again as it took an hour and 10 mins to arrive, so it was a case of Just "not" Eat,Yet! Will phone the takeaway direct next time and see if it's any quicker!

Just shy of 10 minutes late with the delivery but well worth the wait. This is the best Chinese takeaway that we have had for along time and it's at the top of the list for future orders.

Not quite as requested this time (asked for no onion) but that's minor as it was perfect other than that, as always. This is the best takeaway I've found and won't order from anyone else. Always on time or early, food is always excellent and generously portioned.

Nice food, nice service delivery man quire rude but hey Im sure he was busy!

Fabulous as always, but please do not send spring rolls as your freebie! We love your prawn crackers too much!! But if you'd like to send us your shredded chilli beef as a treat that would be fab!! :)))

Missing items used to love this place but must of changes hands not as good quality now.

Excellent food, usually promptly delivered but the last order took over an hour.

lovely food, I highly recomment the sweet and sour king prawn with fried rice. Very good.The service could be a lot faster but i guess it was worth the wait. Not too good if you are in a rush,but if you want quality then you wont be dissapointed

Definitely one of the best, the chicken wings in Thai style was exquisite. The only criticism i have is the overly warm can of coke due to it being put in the same bag as the food! derrr. Apart from that, fantastic.

Average the duck was not sliced or cut and it was clear from my request I had no cutlery. Delivery was timely thou

Among the best I've ordered from in a while, took a little on the long side to be delivered considering it being close by but deffinately worth a try! Will be ordering from here again and I would recommend.

Food was great, but order came late. Driver called to say he was outside but wasn't? Then kept hanging up when I tried to call to direct him. Meant an additional 10 mins until our food was at the door which was a shame but would likely order again
