The delivery service is disgraceful, we've ordered mixed vegtables noodle on the phone and specificly asked WITHOUT mushroom. The operator obviously didn't understand what we are talking about because the noodle was full of mushrooms. My husband is native English so the mistake was not on our side. I find it very sad that such a mistake has happened.

Always fast and inexpensive. However, the quality is not premium. Chowmein came burned here and there. Fried rice arent flavourful, mainly with eggs, peas and not much of the meat of your choice. Banana fritters are too oily. There is room for improvements.

I am normally happy with my order but not tonight. I was told 45 min wait. Turned up in 10 mins. Wow great service. Just disappointed with my chicken curry. Chicken very chunky and boiled tasting. The sauce was more like a watery gravy. Sorry guys let me down on the curry.

Ordered tonight got told 1 hour and 15 mins wait for delivery for 1 portion of chips, 1 chips with curry, and one special fried rice. Did not arrive so rang up to being told we should have known as it was a busy Saturday night and then hung up. When it finally came the chips and curry sauce was not in a tray like specified and hardly any curry sauce. Rang up again and was hung up on even though we was polite and was asking why it was like that and not the usual way.
