I am disgusted this time I bit into them! As a life king vegetarian it made me feel ill so another call and awaiting refund! Need to find another Chinese! Oh and had to wait over 30 mins for food!

Turned up on the bone and i wished I'd cooked. If this was my first meal here I'd never go back. Thankfully I've eaten here before and will go back to my usual order, as normally the best. Everyone has a bad day and I hope I never have to repeat what I ate tonight.

I tried Happy Chef as an alternative, but also experienced some disappointing meals there. Now, I prefer to avoid takeout and opt for Indian cuisine instead. Little India is a great option, as they cook in plain view and consistently deliver delicious food.
