The standout for me is their Garlic Chilli Chicken — it’s legendary. Tender pieces of chicken coated in a glossy, fiery sauce that’s got the perfect balance of heat, garlic punch, and subtle sweetness. Not too overpowering, but definitely addictive.😋❤️
The staff were incredibly lovely, helpful, and friendly, making the whole experience even better. It’s always a pleasure to be served by people who genuinely care about their customers.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for tasty Asian takeaway with top-notch service. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Unfortunately have had to leave the majority of it.
We ordered 3 dishes between two of us.
The momos were lovely..... and that was it.
Chow mein had an inch of greasy oil swimming in the bottom of the tub.
The bento sweet and sour chicken was the most disappointing. Just coated chicken in a tangy sauce layered upon the most rice I've ever seen.
They have a picture on the menu of the sweet and sour chicken. Chicken, peppers, onions and pineapple.... pretty standard in any sweet and sour chicken I've ever had. None of that in this. If you're going to use a picture for reference be accurate and do better guys.
