Lucky Star Chinese Takeaway in Leeds

Very watery and bland it was a waste of £30, its a real shame because it used to be decent. I dont usually write reviews but was very disappointed.

Been ordering here for about 20+ years even all the time it changed hands. Used to be great but every other week the prices go up, the portions get smaller, the quality gets worse and the ingredients get fewer and fewer. Used to be you got a range of mixed veg with the mains and now it is just all onion with the occasional scrap of carrot or green pepper if lucky. The chips are nearly always under cooked and extremely oily as though they have been cooked in oil which is not hot enough so just saturates them without cooking or crisping. The batter is no longer crispy and is just a smooth coating now and if you get shredded it's all fried batter and almost nothing inside. The tubs get smaller and smaller, we have old ones in our drawer and comparing the new ones which are way more expensive yet about half size of the old ones. Plus they never fill the container, it's always half full. A starter on its own now costs more than a main meal with a side did just a few years ago, no idea why something like seaweed is almost £5. Every time we go they seem to give us a new menu which has higher prices it's getting stupid. We are going here less and less and every time we do we are still disappointed. Gone from my favourite take away ever to a disappointing last-choice option and shows no sign of improving. Not sure how much longer they can keep putting prices up and making the food worse and smaller before people just stop going.

Have have two takeaways from here in the last few months. Both times we have been very impressed by the food quality and price. We really enjoyed the Sweet and Sour chicken balls and also the Beef, green pepper and black bean sauce. Will we use them again - YES
