"What a waste of money this was"
"Apparently this pot of liquid is meant to be roast pork with garlic ♀️"
"Don't waste your hard earned money on this joint and try somewhere, ANYWHERE else because this lot will surely knows how to disappointment your dinner"
"We were very surprised after reading good reviews but this is definitely the worst Chinese meal we ever ordered"
"This is how they pack your beef satays I spent $58 and it was dripping through the paper bag when it should be in a container"
What a waste of money this was. DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM, learn from my mistake. Not only was the order 30 mins late, the fried rice is soggy you know things are going to bad if a Chinese restaurant can not even do fried rice well. The Mongolian beef is way to thick and extremely chewy that it can not be eaten. The lemon chicken was not only cold but flavorless and the sauce was runny. The sweet and sour pork okay but still lacking flavour and the Hokkien noodles was probably the best out of it all and that is being generous as the noodles very overcooked. Tried to look after the small business and go directly to them instead of through one of the delivery partners, but at least you have the support and can seek a refund through delivery partners if the quality is poor and this was defintely POOR.

Apparently this pot of liquid is meant to be roast pork with garlic ♀️. It certainly does not taste like roast pork with garlic!! The satay sauce looked like yellow sludge and tasted like it to. When I phoned to question if the wrong thing had been delivered, just got told I was first time customer so I don't understand!! I suggested perhaps the wording on their Uber menu change to explain the pork better a include description that it comes in a liquid, just got laughed at and told again I was first time customer. Staff member was sarcastic and just seemed amused by my complaint. First time customer, yes. Last time customer, yes.

Don't waste your hard earned money on this joint and try somewhere, ANYWHERE else because this lot will surely knows how to disappointment your dinner. Ordered a fried rice, teriyaki sauce chicken & a tom yum soup and the quality of food was way below average. Fried rice was tasteless, hardly any chicken in the chicken dish and had so many eggies, I thought I ordered a vegetarian dish. Tom yum soup looked like gully water and tasted very artificial. Will never order again from here, EVER!!
We were very surprised after reading good reviews but this is definitely the worst Chinese meal we ever ordered. The food was not even the dishes we ordered, every dish was slimy and even basic dishes like veg fried rice was stodgy and had bean sprouts in it. Very disappointing. The owner was very nice about it when we returned the food and refunded our money but we were really hoping for a lovely meal after reading many positive reviews.
This is how they pack your beef satays I spent $58 and it was dripping through the paper bag when it should be in a container. All the sauce went over everything.I won’t be coming back. Treat your customers with respect not just take their money and delivery poor customer service. Shame on your business

Absolutely terrible. Beef was so chewy we couldn’t eat it. Prawn toast was on crust. Crispy beef was like tough charcoal. Honey chicken tasted artificial and salt and pepper squid had horrible flavouring. Never again. Feel sick. Wish i had looked further fir reviews. I feel so annoyed at the money we paid for such an uneatable meal.

Got satay chicken and beef satay sticks fried rice and salt and pepper chicken the chicken was ok nothing to get excited about though the beef and chicken satays were absolutely disgusting I could not even relate the flavor to anything else that I have had that is called satay the fried rice came out of the container in clumps and totally sucked will definitely not be going back here
Fillet steak tough. No flavour at all. The only thing I could taste is SALT. The vegetables were beyond soggy. The whole meal was an oily mess. Will not recommend nor will order from this restaurant again.I have no idea how it gets high reviews on Uber !Do yourself a favour there are better choices.

We have just moved into the neighborhood and this was our first Chinese takeout. It was fantastic, delicious and delivered 8mins early. It's the best chicken omelet i've had in years. My husband enjoyed his duck in plum sauce. Highly recommend eating here and we now have a new favorite place to eat. Thanks guy's, your awesome.
Extra waiting is a MUST. Never even on time for once. Even on uber app said ready for pick up, arrive on site later, then they asked me to wait for 5 minutes, at then end 25 minutes waiting.

Have been going here for many years & the food used to be really good. The new owners have hit an all time low, serving up inedible satay "steak" which was just gristle in a salty, gluggy sauce and mushy fried rice. Will never go here again.

This is decent but not great Chinese food. Perfectly acceptable for the standard dishes like Sweet and Sour Pork or Honey Chicken. Really reasonably priced. I think it’s good for the price and it’s one of my go-to takeout options :)

Honestly this was a fabulous meal, the only thing I wish they could make the steak fillet and black pepper sauce would be a little less fatty but it was definitely a great meal and would go there again

Our usual take away wasn't taking orders so we tried somewhere close by. I ordered a steamed rice and a special fried rice and received two special fried rice, which I don't eat. Meat dishes were average. Battered chicken was soggy. Sauces were gluggy and bland.
Not only was it an average experience, they sent spam text messages thereafter. Don't give them your number when ordering!

Been going here for about 13 years always been great food. Last week every item we ordered was terrible. Rice was gluggy, dim sims were awful, spring rolls were flat with no filling. Sorry doubt we'll be back. Obviously new owners.
Ok, I understand that I ordered Thai food from a Chinese restaurant but Pad Thai should NEVER be made with a cup full of Chinese red sweet and sour sauce, Tom Yum is clear not like gravy. Dim sim half star + spring roll half star
This place used to be amazing but tonight it was a matter of finding the meat in amongst the vegetables. I ordered meat dishes not vegetarian.

By far one of the best Chinese takeaway I’ve come across in Adelaide. I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Has the best flavour and extremely delicious. You won’t regret going here at all. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Quick, tasty and reliable local takeaway. It's good honest food, well priced and friendly staff. The old staple Honey Chicken has a good chicken to batter ratio. Not over battered like some places!
Love these people and the food they produce. Have tried a lot items on the menu and happy with them all. Favorite would have to be the ribs in BBQ sauce! Looking forward to our next meal!
Our meals were very average. Dishes didn’t have the authentic flavors we were expecting. Price, service and portion sizes were good.

Amazing service and quality food. Would definitely go here again and would recommend this to basically everyone. Perfect example of what a take-away should be.
Ordered a delivery order which arrived well under the time they quoted! The food was hot and delicious! Fast friendly service and great staff, we’ll recommend
Chicken and Corn soup was great but disappointed with the Beef Satay, hardly any meat, mainly broccoli, carrots onions. Not happy at all.
Yummy
