In a disheartening experience, a local restaurant has garnered negative feedback for its subpar food and service. Diners have reported overcooked dishes, flavorless meals, and unappetizing textures that led many to discard their orders entirely. Delivery issues further marred the experience, with late arrivals and cold food becoming a recurring theme. Among the most criticized items were the spring rolls, crispy lamb wraps, and the much-anticipated sweet and sour chicken, all failing to meet expectations. Overall, the lack of quality and professionalism has resulted in customers vowing never to return to this establishment again.

First of all, the 'food ' arrived half and hour early which was annoying because we were busy and hadn 't prepared. It was stone cold and the chips looked and tasted under cooked. The curry sauce was congealed and came out of the pot in 1 lump! Disgusting! The sweet and sour chicken had an overpowering metallic taste which was obviously off putting. Not impressed and would certainly not recommend.
