The food is delicious, and never tastes greasy as they are cooked with care and you get a good value for money for the price you pay, quick service and incredibly Friendly staff we even got free prawn crackers and fortune cookies which I was very surprised and happy about. I Highly recommend this Chinese the sweet and sour balls are a must have.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely brilliant food, have eaten from alot of different Chinese take aways and the food here is definitely worth it. The reason I rated 4 stars instead of 5 is just because after paying for the order, collecting and getting home realised a few things were missing. So highly recommend just check you have everything you ordered.

These chicken balls really take me back to the time I was being force fed the most amazing food on the earth by the late queen Elizabeth back in the summer of ‘99. Honestly what a throw back it was, the flavours melting into my mouth like it was 700 degrees Celsius. Then the portion sizes really made me excited with a good amount of chicken balls to the point where one started to feel physically Ill due to the amount of balls and chicken in me. The chips were so succulent I left a changed man and thought that the world only needed chips to live on instead of actual food.

Really recommend stopping by, I have driven past this Chinese for years and finally stopped tonight to be pleasantly surprised. I ordered Malaysian Sambal Bean Curd, Garlic with Chilli Bean Curd as well as vegetable Chow mein. The bean curds were perfectly fried from the outside and soft on the inside, and the chow mein had that smokiness from the wok that you search for.

Have previously had good experiences however found a piece of glass in our food. I rang straight away as didn’t want the same thing to happen to anyone else, was a young guy who answered and was apologetic but really didn’t know what to do so handed me over to someone else who could not understand me and therefore passed me back straight away without saying anything. The young guy offered me a free curry next time but I explained I was sorry but really put off coming back and they just apologised again. No offer of a refund or anything which in honesty I wasn’t really gunning for but so surprised it wasn’t offered. Other than asking what dish I found it in not much was said. I was surprised they did not ask me to bring it back so they could see and try to understand what has happened which is a bit worrying really. I know mistakes can happen but this is concerning as it was pretty jagged piece of glass also. Not sure if it was in the egg fried rice or king prawn curry as we had put the dishes together. So disappointing. Overall spent just over £15 and hadn’t eaten much at all by the time I found the glass.

Food is lovely, not sure if the old owners sold out but the service is disgusting. Tell you 10mins after which you arrive only to wait for a further 10 before they then give your order to another customer. After waiting for around an hour we eventually received most of what we ordered. Never again, this is one customer going elsewhere.

Food is alright, admitally it was very busy but taking 200 covers in 2hrs for a small place like that is absurd. I wished they were honest as we ordered and was told to come back in 45 minutes when we ordered. Came back and was waiting more then an hour for our order very poor service but for a small takeaway with very little staff they need to limit the amount of bookings they can take.

This seems to be a repeat of my last review. Ordered Singapore style chow mien with no shrimp, I double checked that the order would be with no shrimp. I was reassured that this would be fine. Got home and straight away I could see shrimp in the dish, returned the dish in the carton & the lad said so what you want me too do? Er re cook my dish please! Food quickly reappeared & the lad said sorry went to wrong side of kitchen easy mistake, apologies many apologies & was calling this out as I left. Unfortunately this is the only place that has this dish & husbands fav so thought we would try again, so shouldn’t of bothered. The rest of the order was greasy, over cooked, prawn crackers soggy. I have a shell fish allergy so this is important & really should be to Little China. Clearly no improvement since 2018, my last visit. Lesson learnt.

Decent value for money and good portion size. We ordered a broad range of options and each one was tasty and had a fair amount of meat in it. The flavours were a touch homogenous, but the Thai green curry was well flavoured. The pancake spring rolls are very greasy and might be worth avoiding.

I have eaten here several times as its nearer to me, but last nights meal was one to forget, the chicken balls we so greasey it left my mouth full of oil after a bite. The rice was dry and the spring rolls were big and empty and again saturated in oil, everything tasted bland... This isnt how it should be! Especially in this difficult time for businesses everywhere, they should pay more attention to quality. It was a celebratory dinner and i was very dissappointed. Wont be going back. Mr C.Ross

Placed order over the phone and clearly requested no shrimp in my dish due to my allergy. Went to collect and asked the lovely girl to check my order has no shrimp ... I clearly heard her ask the chefs if this dish contains shrimp ....she returned and told me yes it does !! I responded that I know it does contain shrimp hence why I ordered it without..this was debated in the shop.... chef appears and said I would have to wait as need to re cook. Waited, got home and found shrimp in my meal. Phoned them and did not get much of a response. This was my second time using little china in over two years as this would often happen. I will not be going back, I will travel further to actually get food that I can eat.

I have eaten here quite a few times, a few issues along the way but this time was the final chance for me! Salt and pepper chips were £2.20 more than normal chips but had only table pepper (supposed to be mixed peppers etc) and so salty they were inedible! The “crispy shredded duck” was not shredded, was certainly not crispy and was so full of fat it was disgusting! £40 spent on food for friends to enjoy together and it ended up in the bin, 2 out of 4 of us were so sick the next day that it had to be the chicken as we were the only 2 that ate it! I won’t be giving them another chance!

The food was average: beef slices tough and cut too large, deep fried crispy shredded duck is actually similar to deep fried chilli beef you normally find in Chinese restaurants (sweet bright red sauce) so we should have clarified. The prices were reasonable, and service was good and polite; however, this is the first time we encountered a take -away place wanting to charge for chopsticks. £1, we were told, and when we asked if that was £1 each or £1 for us all, the girl said £1 is for two chopsticks, not one😂😂😂! Not good enough, unless you're lost, far away from home and in desperate need for Chinese food.
