Having ordered the Chinese by telephone and 6 phone calls later it finally arrived nearly 3 hours after ordering . Subsequently I can only describe the meat as like the leather on sole of my shoe . The chicken wings were almost desiccated and the smell and taste were very overwhelming if this is appealing to you then crack on

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS RESTAURANT. My partner and I ordered the Salt & Pepper Munchy Box, the food did not seem to be bad in any way, however we both felt incredibly ill shortly afterwards. My assumption was that the chicken had not been cooked properly or had been reheated. After checking reviews, it appears that many have had similar issues with the poor quality food

Ordered a take out for delivery which was a disaster. Doesn't matter what day of the week or time, always told its going to.be an hour. It NEVER is, it is always longer but on this occasion it was One Hour AND fifty minutes. To make it worse rang a couple of times chasing it and was told it was on its way, delivery driver confessed to say he had no clue what was going on and he had only been given the order and set off five minutes prior to arriving. The telephone operator said it had got busy just after our order so I can only assume that all of those orders were dealt with out of turn and got served first Was issued 10% off our next order which is worth nothing as we won't be ordering again! Don't know why we gave them our custom so long. We will use another take away from now on.

Food was not fit for consumption. Greasy, mushy reheated food. When i complained about the food I was spoken to like dirt by the lady taking the orders over the phone. Not only is your food not fit for purpose neither are your employees. Shame on you as a company. Maybe some staff coaching and taking some pride in the food you produce would improve the standard of your business and also so result in better reviews. Any one considering making an ordering from this establishment I would strongly advice otherwise, not unless you like a long wait, disgusting food and a Karen taking your order.

Just ordered deep fried crispy shredded chicken, Singapore curry, House special fried rice, crispy seaweed & chips. The food is always delicious and always delivered hot. Delivery drivers are always polite and on time.The portions are more than adequate. Best Chinese takeaway in the area in my opinion. Thankyou for the excellent service and tasty enjoyable food.

Food was decent overall but a bit bland. On our deluxe platter the fried crab claws were replaced with empty wonton wrappers. Complete ripoff. Also I expect roast duck fried rice to have more than roast duck and lightly toasted rice.

The team really went above and beyond for us today, stopping at an Airb&b which is an address that doesn't show up on maps, and the phone number entered by us was one digit off! Not only did they manage to work out the correct phone number, but when I went outside they had also managed to find our road (even the locals didn't know it was here). Food was great, exactly what we needed, really tasty and good portions too. Thanks again so much!

These people thought I was someone I wasn't, I rang them for the first time and they hung up on me for asking if I could get a spring roll instead of prawn crackers as I'm allergic, and they put the phone down . I tried again to talk but they decided to cut me off. These are people that don't deserve the anyone's money or service. Don't bother phoning this button hole of a place. Had to put one star but they don't deserve it. Avoid them.

Very Nice, better then I was expecting. Don’t normally do delivery but this was a pleasant surprise. Not too sweet and generous portion. The only thing is just a bit more sauce for the chow mein, was a bit bland. But overall good experience.

Pre ordered food at 15:15 was contacted just before they opened at 5pm for collection it 5:30pm and was ready on time. Great welcome when we arrived and a quick exchange of money and food. On arriving home the food was quickly distributed and was still hot, all food was very tasty and almost everything was eaten with some free gifts given. We would recommend this place to anyone and the food we got was a mix of meat, vegetarian and tofu dishes.

I have been eating from here for over nine years since I met my current partner. She has been eating from here for much longer than that, The food has occasionally been delivered later than stated, but in general we now collect it from the shop. We have never had a bad meal! I travel a 22 miles round trip for their Chicken Foo Young and Chicken Fried Rice with S&S Sauce. Always good, always hot and delicious. Friendly service and always spoken to by name. It’s perfect!

The food from here is excellent, my favorite dish is the duck Cantonese style… it’s so tasty and the duck is always cooked to perfection!!! Take no notice of the negative reviews, sometimes there is along wait on food but they always advise you when you order!! There’s a reason sometime during peak times there’s a long wait on food… it’s cos the food is so good damm good!!!! 😃

First of all had to wait over an hour for food, and when i rang each time told food was on way, IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE CONTACTLESS DELIVERY, YET DRIVER STOOD AT DOOR, “YOU WHAT” is all I got and he would not put it down for me, not happy, the food was stone cold and so I had to heat it up, they should have given me the ingredients and I’d have cooked it better, it would have tasted much better, I’m never ever eating Chinese again cause of these people.

Food was average. some of it felt microwaved. The Chinese dumplings were soggy, plastic and bland. The Chips were the same. The Sweet and Sour sauce was almost Ketchup and yes I am aware that Ketchup is an ingredient but not that much. The Chicken Foo Yung Was bland. The Portions were ok but nothing special. The Order was 1 hour late. This is the first time I have tried this takeaway as China Chef were closed and I am not impressed. I appreciate the effort but honestly don't appreciate microwaved food for hard-earned money. never ever had a Chinese from China Chef that tasted half baked like that. 3/10 at best

Absolutely shocking service popped in to try out their curry sauce and place a large order to be told while I tested the curry for flavour, heat etc (And I mean literally stood there no more than a minute) that I couldn't stand around!!!! Now I understand if the place had been full and I was causing a problem fair enough but it was completely empty the sauce was stone cold so temp checks obviously not being done in this establishment so be warned!!! Obviously left rather disgruntled never to return, sort out your customer service you have just lost out on very large orders on the future wish I'd read other reviews before visiting as they are pretty diabolical too !!!!

The duck was dry .beef in oyster sauce was awful and runny . So for 50 pound the only edible thing was chicken chow mein oh and the free prawn crackers .. Avoid

Had three meals from here over the last three months, We have the Beef Curry, Beef Chow mein, Mushroom fu yung, and Chicken fried rice. Absolutely delicious! Having tried all the other Chinese takeaways over the years, including Bawtry & Retford, this is one of the best we have had. Simply couldnt find fault with any of the dishes we have tried, except perhaps the BBQ Ribs were a bit dry, but still would be happy to give 10/10 on all counts. . .

Absoloutly Shocking. Meat clearly cooked the night before that they didn't sell, no colour, no flavour, veg was raw as it comes & to top it all off, a black hair in the chips that were hard & re-cooked, shrivelled & bland. Wouldn't even feed this to my animals.

Firstly I asked for plain noodles and they sent me noodles with vegetables. I called to ask about this and they said I had to specify that I wanted no veg? I’m sorry but if I ask for plain, I mean plain, so just a note to improve on. But let me get into the chicken: I ordered the sweet and sour chicken balls (the sauce tasted medicinal it was gross) and the special chow mein (which also had chicken in). The chicken was ELASTIC. Yes so when you bite into it, it would STRETCH, and if you couldn’t bit a piece off it would recoil 🤢🤢. The chicken in the special chow mein wasn’t as elastic but it still had an off taste and texture. The beef was also very chewy and the pork was extremely dry. I also ordered mini vegetable spring rolls which were mostly undercooked batter on the inside (but could have been potato, not 100% sure, either way had a soft texture, which was lacking in vegetables. Overall, I would avoid this place, at the very least avoid the chicken.

Order was completed right, for us the curry is the main component and last time we ordered from here few years ago the curry was strong with spice and flavour. This time it was mild and bland. I could make better Chinese curry in my kitchen at home such a let down.
