Absolutely awful, just avoid and save your money. Forgot rice and were given noodles that were inedible. Had to order from somewhere else.

1st time here and ordered with Uber Eats 50% off offer. Husband had a tofu dish, I had salt and chilli chicken balls. Delivery came on time, huge portions and all very tasty. Fantastic value with the offer and will order again.

Ordered from uber eats. Had a roast pork chow mein and some combo meal which was 2 chicken balls, 2 ribs, fried rice and chips with a sauce (I chose curry). The chow mein was £7.80 and the combo was £6.50, the total order came to £18.23 including delivery. Ordered the food at 7:34pm on a Sunday, uber claims the order is within 20 minutes but it was withing my expect delivery time, came around 8:10pm. The portions were decent to be fair. It was just 2 plastic containers in a bag. I don't think the place does customary prawn crackers. I think what bothered me the most was just the fact that the combo was all just shoved in a container. Rice at the bottom, chips on top of the rice, ribs and chicken balls on top of the chips and then the sauce all poured on top. I think if the sauce had its own container, it would've been a lot better especially considering its a take away and the food can go soggy sitting in sauce. I requested utensils, didn't get any but sometimes places don't have any so that's okay. The chow mein wasn't great, could've done with a sauce. I wouldn't buy again but if you like a cheap Chinese then the place is okay.

Ordered and payed for £38 worth of Food. Waited hours, then it said it was Delivered on just eat. When it wasnt. Then called a million times and they didnt even answer. Then they had the audacity to say ENJOY YOUR MEAL on the receipt page. Yeah no probs. Kick me when im down. ENJOY YOUR MEAL. We and the kids were so hungry aswell. Money took and no food. Terrible. 9nly pressed 1 star because couldnt give minus or none.
