The best restaurants serving Chinese food in South Derbyshire East Midlands

Called in for a meal as all local eateries were packed out. My wife had her usual chicken chow mein, which she enjoyed. However my chicken szechuan and fried rice was bland. Lots of chicken and veg but the sauce was watery and lacked the spiciness I would expect. No egg in the fried rice. At home, for about £5 cheaper, we would have had a far tastier meal. It was not until I began this review I realised we had also been overcharged by £1. Having seen some of the positive reviews, I can only assume, this was a bad day in the kitchen. Thankfully, unlikely to be in this area again so won't have to consider a return visit

Nice meal, great size portions. One main was salty. Had the fixed menu, staff would not change a main course unless we paid for the deluxe menus. First two courses very good, well cooked and presented. Main was good except for prawn in black bean, which was rather salty. Couple on the next table did not eat any of one of their beef mains, saying it was far too salty to eat, so do complain if you can't eat it. We managed ours but would have preferred less salt, rest of the mains were good in quality and presentation.

The aromatic duck tastes Devine. I do not think I’ve seen a Chinese in Britain that does the food so well. The online menu reads chapter and verse the same as my wedding day clear-cut with all the information that one could ever need for ordering a Chinese.

Great place to eat, food fresh and very tasty, only down side was a cold draft coming through the place

Awful Ordering through an open window which you need to duck under, cash only, signs everywhere to watch for sharp glass. Food over cooked tasteless, Chicken fried rice dark brown, over cooked, hardly any chicken, it had just opened food presented in 10mins no way this was cooked fresh. Chips looked and tasted like they had been cooked more than once, curry sauce hot but no flavour and for three simple dishes expensive. Will not be back ever.

We've eaten from here before and it was good. However, this time was very disappointing. I had the crispy beef strips in batter. I have these regularly from my usual Chinese so I expected them to be similar. Unfortunately they were just batter - I cut into one and it had the thinnest strip of beef in it that I just couldn't taste. Portion sizes were good but maybe focus on the quality of food as opposed to quantity.

Too GOOD, today marks the 10 years ive came here and every single time it slaps.

Well cooked food delivered hot and on time. Request for no added salt was followed.

Crispy Duck was not crispy as it was submerged in a horrible sauce and all batter-no meat. Chicken curry ordered with onion and extra mushrooms - didn’t get any of them. Really poor value for money - won’t be having food from here again.

Had a curry the first night ov them opening from a 1 month holiday. The curry was shocking The curry sauce was so thick it was uneatable. The beef in it was terrible. And the spare ribs was full of pure fat. Will never eat from there again. The fried rice was half a tub.
