Paid £22.00 for a half crispy duck. What I received was not fresh and it seemed it was frozen pre done, old and over microwaved and inedible. Gave it to my dogs to eat. This unfortunately ruined the whole experience. Don’t waste your money!!

First time having this Chinese and it was OK. But the morning after wasn't nice. My poor children had to listen to me and my partner having diarrhea and being sick. Taking turns to use the toilet. Won't be using this take away again.

Really nice food, delivered early and piping hot. We enjoyed sweet & sour prawn balls, chicken chow mein, crispy chilli beef, cashew chicken and fried rice. Portions were ample and the food was tasty, not at all greasy and it was excellent quality. Look forward to ordering again.

Anaemic chow mein, dreadful quality chicken, bland sauce, nothing crispy about the crispy aromatic duck with dry cucumber and nasty hoisin sauce, sweet and sour chicken was strange, egg fried rice was flavourless plain boiled rice with hard clumps and a tiny bit of scrambled egg, must be the recent egg shortage. Not sure how anyone’s raving about this place, only half decent thing was the prawn crackers and how fast and hot it was.

Chicken chow mein, chicken curry, sweet and sour chicken balls and salt and pepper squid ordered. The chow mein was seasoned perfectly, the curry was spicy without being too powerful, the chicken balls were well cooked with fresh batter and the squid wasn't over cooked (as others in the area do). Each container was bulging with food and not half filled like others. I'm actually quite glad that Chinese is generally an expensive takeaway or I'd be ordering from this place every day. Very, very impressed.

Absolutely disgusting!!!!! I hate being negative and giving bad reviews but in this case I feel it's my civic duty. Had a big meal for 5 including a watery tasteless curry, chicken balls I can't explain they were so slimy in the middle made friends and me gag. Everythin greasy, tastless and nasty. It went in the bin. Mate was very I'll next day. I don't say this lightly. This was not just the worst Chinese takeaway ever but the worst takeaway I've ever ate.

Im normally quite fair with reviews and prefer to point out the positives rather than negatives, but there really isnt anything positive to say about this place. We waited an hour and a half for food. Bits of my order were missing. What did arrive was awful! Sweet and sour sauce tasted like vinegar. Chowmein was soggy and mushy and chicken balls were over cooked and filled with grease. The pork was dry and unedible and i could literally stand my fork up in the curry sauce. Really disappointed, and wont be ordering from here again. Only gave 1 star as it was the least i could give, but deserves a 0!

I've lived near here all my life an I have never had a pie an chips like it. It wasn't puffy or flakey like a normal pukka pie it was rock hard an my 88yo mother is not happy, I'm not happy my sausage in batter was soggy, an before I forgot the chips tasted weird not cooked in veg oil but something else also they were yesterday chips heated up absolutely disgusting. They've probably still got the rat out back. Don't bother go rounhills or ninefields.
