Quality of food gone downhill and prices have increased. Ordered takeaway from here recently. When it arrived the special fried rice we ordered was replaced with plain boiled rice, but we had still been charged the extra costs. 2 cans of coke were also missing but we were charged. The beef in orange sauce USRD to be lovely, but this time, the sauce wss watery and tasted of nothing and there were about 3 pieces of beef in the whole dish. Same thing repeated with the chicken chow Mein about 3 stingy pieces of meat in the whole thing.
This used to be a good value place dir a Chinese, but on that performance, I will nkt be ordering again. 'Fresh' chips were rock hard too and onion rings soggy and dripping with grease as if the cooking oil was not hot enough. When I rang to complain about missing items, the woman was rude and hung up on me

Waiting times
Absolutely terrible experience. I ordered a munchy box for €18 at 11pm and it never arrived. I waited over an hour, and when it turned 12am there was still no sign of my order. I tried calling to find out what was going on, but my call was hung up on. No communication, no apology, and no food. Paying €18 for nothing and then being ignored is completely unacceptable. I won’t be ordering from here again and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
I ordered noodles with chicken without veggies and still I found some veggies inside(onion which I hate). Food was 100% microwaved and not fresh. I couldn’t to feel any proper oyster sauce in it. The chicken was dry. I wouldn’t recommend to eat there.
