I don't normally give negative reviews! (Look at my review history)
However.... Got a takeaway from here and holy mother! They give you a chicken breast in a box, sliced up thankfully, with a pot of the sauce you ordered.
I'm no chef, far from it, but I though the whole point of Chinese cuisine is that the protein you ordered is cooked in the sauce you ordered..... Really negative experience. Staff are incredible. But I should have got worried when the wait time was 10 mins. In my very uneducated opinion, I reckon the have the sauces in their wee tubs ready to microwave..... The only reason they get 3 stars and not one, is because when you put their sauce into the dish you've ordered, it tastes 100 times better the next morning. And the service. FOH service was amazing! Management needs to go. Putting speed and profit over quality. I'll stick with the rose garden thank you. Now that's a Chinese takeaway away! 5 stars for years now! Just decided to try something different, and was bitterly disappointed. Avoid at all costs.
EDIT.
from the reviews it seems like they prioritise restaurant customers over take away.which is fine..... Every business needs to turn a profit.
But just STOP doing take away! Focus on the restaurant!

Ordered takeaway nd twice sent chips back as they were burnt and looked as if they had been cooked several times. Exchanged for fried rice but that came out so quickly it was probably left over from last night and tasted like it. The reality is your not getting freshly cooked food from here . It seems to be all left overs
Had a great meal here, staff were so helpful, polite and professional.
Food was delicious!!!
Will definitely be returning.
Got a takeaway this evening. .rice was clumpy and tasteless.chicken was stringy. Curry sauce was also tasteless and chips were just crap.i think they are new people running it definitely different ingredients will give it another chance because it used to be nice
Got takeaway everything had to go in the bin. Went up to complain and was left standing in the queue for ages got no satisfaction so i just left. Here is a picture of the spring roll they delivered
