The food felt dry and dehydrated, as if it had been out for delivery for a while, bizarre given that it was delivered earlier than stated. The chips were already cold, the rest was tepid at best.

food was only Luke warm. shredded chicken was over cooked very hard to bite into . Was disappointed as deep fried crispy chicken is a favourite dish of mine. Had it many timescfrom different restaurants and never been hard like this

Delivery driver was nice and early, food arrived hot. Ordered the small golden munchy box salt & chilli box, plenty of variety but most of it was inedible as it was too over salted, crispy greens was good.

Over an hour and half and still not arrived. Don’t take the order and say 45 minutes when you have no intention of delivering in a reasonable time period. Disappointing because they do good food but not worth the wait.

October 2024 - things seem to have got worse. Ribs were chewy and not tasty. Beef with black bean very chilli flavour despite us asking for no chilli. Pretty unhelpful when we gave feedback. Will be going elsewhere after a long time being a loyal customer. Been going here for many years, and it rarely puts a foot wrong. Tonight was the signature bbq ribs- always excellent. Tried the king prawn chow neon and it was delicious. The beef with black bean is another favourite and asking to skip the chilli is never an issue. Will be back very soon!

1st time ordering and was really impressed. Curry was extra hot (as requested) and so tasty. Great selection of salt & chilli items. Ordered the s&c lemon chicken but was disappointed it didn't come with a lemon sauce. Will definitely be ordering again but now I know I will order a sauce on the side. Also appreciated the care taken to ensure the chicken still arrived crispy!

Chinese spring rolls tasted like vinegar. I’m guessing the bean sprouts that filled 99% of them were off. Revolting. Chicken “breast” in the curry was like foam, I don’t know how else to describe it. It was inedible. Curry sauce was somehow too spicy and bland at the same time. Rice tasted old and had absolutely no flavour. This place has been our go to Chinese for years but it’s possible they have a new chef who needs refresher training as it’s the worst food we’ve ever had from here.

We usually go here and have no problems. We will never go back again after tonight’s ‘meal’. The sweet and sour king Cantonese style were the worst thing I’ve ever received from any takeaway ever in my life. I bit into it and was met with a mouthful of powdery sludge?? at first I thought it was chicken we had been given my mistake. After digging around a bit we found a teeny tiny prawn. I’ve no idea what the weird mush in there with it was? Possibly batter? Was mushy but then powdery the closer

Food still hasn’t arrived. Ordered at 18:30. It’s now 20:10. Called the restaurant for an update, was told the driver had just left, even tho it had been stuck on, on its way for 30 mins. Restaurant is 15 mins away at most. Just absolutely ridiculous. It’s so greedy to accept orders if you can’t fulfil them on time. Wouldn’t order again true to the astronomical amount of time you have to wait.. best of luck if you decide to order. Hopefully the food will arrive before the night is done.

"Roast Duck with Pineapple" is hard and rubbery and not a pleasure to eat. "Chicken & Sweetcorn Soup" so salty you can't eat it. It stood in the heater for so long until the water evaporated and only the salt remained. "Dumplings" 3 types were packed in aluminum containers without parchment lining. I expected paper boxes and not aluminum as packaging.

Tried this place tonight for the first time. Delivery was quick, and reasonably priced. However, felt ill and nauseous with a churning stomach within an hour of eating which is a sure sign of massively over salty food. My daughter and I have both been ridiculously thirsty all evening.

First order and will be last. Chicken in chow mein was horrendous, very dark , dry meat that didn't look or taste like chicken, went in bin. Husband had chicken balls which he said were lovely, we both thought the fried rice was horrible and it too went in bin. Gloopy and tasted stale. Heard good things about this place, maybe it was having an off night but I won't take chance again, do not recommend.

The food is really dull, it’s under seasoned and misses any of the spicy, sweet or sour flavours you’d expect when you eat Mexican. The tortilla’s they use actually have more flavour than the taco fillings which gives an odd sensation in your mouth. The fried wings were underdone and the fat on them had not crisped up so they were just very pale fatty bits of wing, for some reason they don’t remove the giblets off the wings which is also weird. If anyone had checked back or asked how everything was when they cleared us I would have given the feedback there and then but no one did. It was expensive for what it was and really disappointing, I wish I had looked at the reviews prior to visiting and gone elsewhere.

I recently visited Peri Peri and was extremely disappointed with the service. The staff were unprofessional and dismissive, not only towards me but also towards other customers. It felt like we were an inconvenience rather than valued guests. The lack of attention and care was evident, making the dining experience unpleasant. I expected better from a restaurant that promotes itself as a welcoming place. I hope they take this feedback seriously and improve their customer service in the future.
