Finally found Chinese food with halal chicken options in the area. Enjoyed the food thoroughly. Authentic Chinese taste and the portion size was great too. Would definitely go again and try more thing off of their menu.

This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in Staffordshire. The food was delicious, the service was prompt & the price reasonable. We cannot understand the negative reviews on here, certainly not our experience.

Rude. “Why haven’t you got your house number on the door?” Well, you’ve been delivering to us for ten years and the number’s on the garage, so. Maybe we’ll order elsewhere next time.

The sweet and sour was neither, there was no taste at all. The rice was dry and the chow mein was greasy. Yes i know they are slightly different from each takeaway but I've never had one I've not enjoyed. This went in the bin as i couldn't eat it. Total waste of money.

Nothing we bought tasted good. Hot and sour soup - sweet?! Should never be sweet! Also the other meals full of sugar, extremely sweet, no other taste just sugar. Szechuan dishes - unrecognisable - full of raw courgette, very little meat, no taste whatsoever.

Customer service and food were awful chips were rock hard and meat all fat. When I asked for refund (as in temper I threw it all in wheelie bin ) I was told no unless I scrapped it out of the bin which you can image I won't be doing. They did offer me 50% off next meal but this wasn't the first bad meal and won't be going back.even more so with how rude I was spoken to by the boss

Called tonight as I was close by for a Takeaway, and now I now why I stopped going!! My meal was Singapore fried rice which supposed to be spicy, this was bland and not spicy at all. Curry sauce was orange and like water, did not taste like curry sauce at all. Chips were not cooked both pale and hard. Threw it away and 15 minutes later on the toilet!!!!! The wife had Crispy chilli beef which came with the beef dry sitting on top of the sauce, and again was bland and tasted like yesterdays!! Never going again. Used to be so good but now the worst around.

Meal arrived cold, prawn toasts full of grease not edible. No taste in the food, gelatinous texture to sweet and sour. All in bin. What has happened to Lims, it used to be so good, now rubbish,

The food was warm, and came in a decent time the gravy over one meal had leaked all over the others. The pepper chips were raw on most of them, and very very oily. The rest of the meal was fine but portion size against what you were paying compare to other local places was really small. I dont think I will be using them again.

Just ordered a meal about 30 minutes ago came quite fast put it out on my plate and put some Prawn crackers on the side of the plate, found a Black Hair on top of one. Call them up and they said none of them have black Hair and the Gentleman on the phone just happened to pack that particular packet and it wasn't his hair. Well it certainly isn't mine I am a Red Head. So that's my Food gone in the Bin because of a Hair that doesn't belong to any Staff.

This used to be the place to go for a Chinese take away but not any more. Used them a while ago and it seems it had fallen well below the standards they set in the past. However, we thought we’d try again in case it was a one off. Yuk. I had the sweet and sour chicken while the wife had the Cantonese style chicken with egg fried rice. Chicken balls were rock hard and cracked when you tried to get a fork in them, clearly cooked hours ago. The same with the chips which were hard and blistered, presumably from old oil. They were too bad to eat so I cracked open a few of the chicken balls and chucked the chicken pieces to the dog. With no word of a lie he’s since been sick. The wife just binned hers as the Cantonese chicken was completely overdone and chewy. I don’t know what you’ve changed at Lims but I suggest you change it back before you either go bust with lack of sales or get shut down by the food standards people.. What a shame....

Used it for 25 years now and then. Aways enjoyed the food but can be more pricey than others. The one thing i don't like is the inconsistent portion sizes. Some time its full while others can be under or half full. Not good for paying customers. Ordered this at weekend. Its been full in past but this is low. They said was shrinkage. NO its not. Must check more.
