Most Disliked
Occasionally, reviews mention that some prepared dishes can lack the expected level of spiciness, leading to disappointment for those who prefer a kick in their meals. A few customers have reported longer wait times during peak hours, especially on weekends, which can be frustrating when hunger strikes.
There can be a mix-up with orders, leading to inaccuracy in requests made over the phone. Although these instances seem rare, they do occur. Some patrons express a desire for more vegetarian options on the menu, lamenting limited choices that aren’t meat-based.

We as a family have had Chinese meals and the noodle boxes.all have been fantastic.my special is the large noodle hot box with extra hot curry sauce, please note extra hot curry sauce they do this as I asked for it. It's fantastic. We drive from WARRINGTON so are paying 2 x tolls but the food is well worth it. Sorry no photos as I've eaten in

After moving to Runcorn I tried almost all the Chinese takeaways and they were all distasteful. I tried this takeaway on a whim this evening, lovely greeting the woman who served us was absolutely lovely, I expressed my weird request which was chicken in black bean sauce but extra spicy, she seemed delighted to enhance the dish with her home made spices, allowed me to taste before I left, and I can honestly say after coming home and demolishing my meal which included salt n pepper chicken, chicken black bean sauce extra spicy and chicken balls with sweet n sour sauce, both me and my partner agreed saying it’s the best Chinese food to date, I highly recommend and I will be back.
