Good for families
No.1 takeaway in Ireland. My family and I are getting our food here since it opened. Lovely owners, staff and delivery drivers. Food is second to none. Highly recommended. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you so much for your wonderful review Karen 💕
We think you are pretty amazing too! 🤗 …
This place is incredible. I've ordered food here for years and have nothing but good things to say. The food is always amazing and the service is great as well. My go to is the salt and chili prawns, but have always been impressed with whatever else I've ordered.
Thanks so much Simon 👏👏 …
Got a spice bag and i was disgusted by how bland the chicken and chips was their was only salt and lots of msg on the food plus the chicken was really dry and looked almost pale I took one bite of the chicken and I immediately lost my appetite I would not recommend this place as it was a waste of money and the the quality was one of the worst I’ve seen for a Chinese I would not recommend the curry sauce was also bland, I am saddened to see this place lose it food quality as I used to order it a good few times over the years, overall the food was over seasoned with salt and msg no other flavour than that and the quality and dryness is not worth your money.
