Great food and customer service. Our food was delivered speedily and was nice and hot despite the fact we live at the other end of town. It was also reasonable price-wise. Felt I must write this review for others, like myself, who haven’t long lived here. Thanks 🙏

It's hard to find a good Chinese takeaway these days, I can highly recommend this one, we have never tried before so took a punt. Was not disappointed, the salt and pepper said was full of flavour, the duck was superbly cooked, the chow mein was really nice, and the chicken curry was full of flavour. All tasted really fresh. Will be coming again. Thank you.

Been our favourite Chinese takeaway in Tunbridge Wells for many years. Their food is always freshly prepared and delicious. Don’t get why they don’t have 5-Star rating on Google, as they definitely should - based on our experience!

This is the only place I ever get Chinese food from in Tunbridge Wells. We have used them since they first appeared in Southborough and have never had any problems. Delivery is always fast and food delicious.

Great food. I have ordered take-away from there countless times and have never been disappointed. There was once a mixup in the kitchen and the wrong dish was sent out but they delivered the correct dish 20 minutes after I called them about it and said to keep the wrong dish. I have also eaten in the restaurant and was very impressed. I have just booked for my birthday celebration with my family for Saturday evening. I had no hesitation about going there for the second time.
