Very quick service, ordered via deliveroo. Everything was decent, but the crispy shredded chicken wasn't crispy.

I ordered using uber eats before reading the comments. I was worried as a good few was really bad. But I am a very happy customer Food is fresh and tasty. No complaints at all!

They sent the wrong food and refused to send a replacement. Although I explained that my daughter was allergic to what they had sent and now she has nothing to eat. They said complain to Uber get a refund and place another order. Unacceptable as it was their mistake. Will not order from here again.

I had the very worst Chicken and cashew nuts here on 17th September. I could not eat the chicken. It had a fatty texture and felt very questionable.

Decided to order from here as it had good veggie choices before seeing the negative reviews. The food wasn't outstanding but it certainly wasn't terrible either and everything we received was extremely fresh, well packaged to prevent spills. The veggie 'beef' in black bean sauce was particularly good. The veggie duck with pancakes was much better than I have had from elsewhere as the mock duck was actually crispy and not like it had been steamed as everywhere else does it. The only let down was the sweet and sour tofu, it was a bit bland and only had one piece of pineapple in the whole thing, so probably wouldn't order that next time.

If I could give a zero I would have. This was without doubt the worst Chinese we have ever had. Items in the order were totally wrong. The Kung po chicken smelled like alcohol and looked to have gone off cashew nuts floating in it.

The rice tastes like salt. With over cooked pieces of egg. The chicken balls were all mushy with barely any chicken in and the sweet and sour sauce was pure vinegar.

The prawn toast was bizarre and wafer thin.

Finished my "meal" of a mouthful of rice, a couple of "chicken" balls and a couple of wafers of prawn toast.

Now I feel sick.

This place should be closed. I might even contact trading standards.

We order our Chinese Takeaway since 17 years from Emperor. It's cheap and cheerful, nothing special, but it always tastes nice. Very good value for money. Recommended.

Rotten!! The worst and most disgusting veg curry I’ve ever had in my entire life! I don’t know what they’ve made the curry sauce with but I wanted to throw up after one taste, it’s made me feel sick and I’ve got a strong stomach being a Nurse. It didn’t taste like any Chinese curry I’ve had in my 35 years of eating Chinese food, it tasted like washing up liquid and it had a strange tinge of green to eat! The chow mein tasted really weird too! £16 down the toilet! I called them up to tell them and they offered me a free meal next time but I won’t eat from there again! Yuck 🤮 🤢 I feel so sick. Need a cup of tea to wash away the taste… don’t eat from there!
