Food arrived hot and tasted good, phoned in my order and they seemed busy so the lady answering the phone asked me to hold on (not a problem) I can see how some people would find this rude but didn’t bother me.. delivery was great timing for 9.45 on a Friday night (took about 25/30 mins)

Just had a delivery from Mr. Lee's which took over an hour to arrive. I told the delivery driver that I wasn't happy abd he actually laughed. He then phoned the takeaway himself and had a fight with a colleague in my driveway! He handed me the phone to give out my card details, but I took the phone in my house - explaining it to him first that I certainly wasn't going to give my card details over the phone outside. Absolutely awful, won't use again.

I normally get my Chinese takeaway from Mr Lee's but I have noticed the food isn't as nice as it used to be. Even chicken fried rice tasted strange like everything was made in the same wok and I could taste the dumplings in the rice. It was not nice

Don't bother. We've used here for years and recommended to others . Tonight phoned for take away. Told 45 min delivery. 2 Hours later the food turned up. Had called to be told driver on way but nothing prepared us for the wait. Told driver we had called to cancel as the wait had been way too long. He took the food away. Good luck to whoever got that meal reheated later on!! The lady on the phone didn't even apologise when phoning to cancel..

The worst chinese i have ever had.evrrything is honey based.sweet chilli chicken, sweet and sour chicken even the shredded chilli chicken. Beef satay is ridiculous doesnt even taste like a peanut base sauce. I also ordered a chicken curry. What a disaster whoever chef is that can burn their most popular dish needs the sack.chips are rank even prawn crackers arent fried right. The only thing decent thing about food served is the cans of premaid juice. Portions are massive and when you bring this all to their attention they are super rude. Even when your not complaining they are super rude. Plus the place looks actual manky. I gave this a try several times but as i got food poisoning while pregnant i wont be trying again

I had an insect cooked into my prawn cracker. They refunded my meal and wanted it back. I will never ever ever go back there for food in future. It looks like a baby co croach cooked into my prawn cracker. I wish I could post a photograph of this. Not happy at all :(((( I have an environmental health officer coming to collect the meal tomorrow morning. I cannot believe this I feel sick. Zoom into prawn cracker Environmental officers involved The environmental health contacted me today stating they had also mistaken this as a cocroach when it was a moth which landed on the prawn cracker after taken out the frier. They have set traps and checked the premises thoroughly and assured me that their place was to good standard. It was a one off situation that unfortunately happened to me.

Thought the whole experience was very good. A cheery waitress greated me at the door and showed me to a table. The nice Geordie lad took my order without pressuring any sides or extras. The chicken burger I had was really tasty as can be seen in the picture and so was the hot honey sauce I had with the fries. All in a very good burger restaurant and would 100% return.

The man that served me this morning approx. 8.05am was so rude. He threw my bacon roll onto the counter then turned his back on me. I am disgusted by his service and lack of manners. I got a Jammie doughnut as well and because he didn't bother to put the little cover over the icing, by the time I went to eat it on lunch all the icing had come off. That is twice he has pissed me off today.
