The food was actually amazing! I've had plenty of Chinese takeaways but this is definitely the BEST Chinese takeaway I've had. Also the cashier was so nice and welcoming but the food just speaks for itself! I've no idea why this takeaway doesn't have 5 stars!!!

I’ve been using Imperial Dragon for years and never had an issue. Order placed at 630. Original delivery time slot 7:30-7:50. By 8:15 I chased up the order and was told 8:20 for delivery by 8:30 nothing, order arrived at 845 over 2 hours from ordering point. Couldn’t get through to restaurant on the phone. Food was then cold. Disappointed.

I have forgiven the massive recent price rise due to the normal quality of the food and the very quick delivery. Unfortunately, the last few times have been poor and tonight was far below standard....food was substandard, wont be going back

First time of using this restaurant and will be the last, placed the order at 6.15 for a 7.30 deliver and although contacted Just eat and phoned the restaurant no one answered or replied and the food eventually arrived at 8.05 with no explanation or apology - really poor and disappointing

Was due to receive between 8:30 & 8.50pm, but actually received at 9.10pm. The chips were cold & soggy (couldn’t eat them). The rest of the food was okay, however not the normal standard this restaurant normally delivers (we order from here regularly & the quality is normally excellent)

We always go to this Chinese when we want a quality meal however this time was slightly disappointing. Delivery time was late without an apology or a usual smile. We will go back to using this takeaway and we hope this was just a one-off scenario.

Order placed at 8.45pm, rang at 11.03pm to ask where our order was. Told it was busy and would be with us in 10 minutes time as the driver had set out with it - very late for food to arrive. 11.25pm still no food. Rang to ask where it is and nobody answering the phones!! Our order was £28.00.... we would like a full refund. Avoid ordering from here.

Ordered and came within 12 minutes with roughly a 6 minute drive. Luke warm at most on arrival, called the restaurant and they said this was impossible because they had just cooked it and mine was the only order they had and this is why it was done so quickly, chicken curry was hot but everything else had to be microwaved as the restaurant refused to do anything about it. Save your money!

Really disappointed, usually arrives on time and happy with the meal but it arrived 20 minutes early when we were not yet home and wasn’t very warm when we got to it 5-10 minutes later meaning or needed reheating. Crispy beef then became soft and overall a disappointment.

Always a great coffee with excellent service. Whilst it is more of a premium it is good quality coffee with a decent reward scheme. Food is fine but is more of a premium. Would be good if the reward scheme offered more in terms of food offers.

If I get an automated reply from the "owner" to this review like they have done to all the others then I'll be taking this further. Me and my partner both got a meal from KFC, we had 2 meals, £30. That price is absolutely ridiculous for a chain restaurant, it's literally a fast food establishment?.. when we received the food it was all cold, the chips tasted like they weren't cooked. The chicken was awful, when you bit into it, disgusting, undercooked and cold liquids came out of the chicken, going everywhere. When the manager tried to explain that it was 'juices' he clearly thought I was thick. I'm not, I know how chicken is cooked and how it should be I'm not stupid, you didn't have to explain it to me like I'm a child. I managed to get back £20, still £10 wasted. I wish this was the only thing, but the restaurant was an absolute disgrace, near enough every table was dirty, bins were overflowing, and the few members of staff they had just stood chatting and clearly couldn't have cared less. Do better.

Shabbir's is a clean and tidy establishment with a welcoming atmosphere. The sitting area is a bit tight, which might feel a little cramped, especially during busy times. However, the customer service is excellent, with staff being attentive and friendly, which adds to the overall positive experience. As for the food, it was fairly average. While not disappointing, it didn't stand out in terms of flavor or presentation. The karak chai, which is often a highlight in places like these, was also underwhelming, lacking the bold, rich taste that one might expect from a traditional cup. One downside is the lack of parking directly outside the restaurant. You'll need to park on the side streets, which can be a bit inconvenient, especially during peak hours. Overall, Shabbir's offers a pleasant environment with good service, but the food and beverages could use some improvement to match the quality of the overall experience

Place has upgraded amazingly! My childhood KFC has improved. I always had good service but the staff (especially team leader Baksho, Areej (sorry if I misspelt that) and Niamh) are above and beyond amazing and the food is wonderful and the place has a great atmosphere!
