Description

In the heart of Chandlers Ford, the local Chinese takeaway has stirred mixed responses following new ownership. While some patrons praise the generous portions and friendly service, others express disappointment in the food quality, citing soggy chicken balls, rubbery prawns, and unappetizing curry, with many questioning whether they'll return. Despite its charm and community presence, issues like cash-only payment and inconsistent experiences have left diners looking elsewhere for reliable Chinese cuisine. Recommendations for alternatives, such as Peking Phoenix and Fusion Noodle Bar, provide options for those seeking a more satisfying meal. Overall, the restaurant remains a work in progress amid varied customer experiences.

I am updating my review of this restaurant as it has new ownership. Despite the lack of changes to the signage, I was hoping to see improvements in food quality or a talented chef. Unfortunately, my hopes were not met. The interior had moldy window frames and curtains covering what could have been a charming open kitchen. The food was disappointing and well below average. I had previously given it a rating of 3, but now I would only give it a 1. I will not be returning to this establishment. I would suggest trying Peking Phoenix, The Water Margin, or Fusion Noodle Bar instead.

Singapore fried rice and hk style chicken. Unbelievably actually worse than before. Won't be using again

They do not accept credit cards. The food is decent but not outstanding. The chicken tends to be in thick slices instead of chunks. The receptionist is friendly and welcoming.

A great family run Chinese establishment that has been part of the chandlers ford community for 10+ years. Their food is great and authentic, they do one of the best crispy shredded beef in town. The balance of crispiness to sauce ratio is amazing. I would also recommend their ginger and spring onions dish, it is the perfect dish for a cold day. The service is also stellar here, always greeted with a wide warm smile. Shame that this takeaway only takes cash.
