    Ordered aromatic Mongolian lamb and got strips of fatty skin, no cucumber strips and spring onion accompaniment as is standard for this type of meal. BBQ spare ribs were also fatty and covered in a thick overpowering jelly type sauce.

    If i could give 0 stars i would happily do so! Very upset with the service here, ordered a curry for my heavily pregnant fiance who has had the curry and now been vomiting for basically the last hour, it actually ended up being very severe food poisoning, they made her really ill and i have already reported then to trading standards, they took over 2 hours to deliver the food, they didnt bother using the intercom or even try letting us know they had attempted delivery and to top it all of they were extremley rude over the phone, swearing and shouting when we called to find out where the order was, i would never ever ever go here again and will spend as much time as possible making sure no one else does DO NOT GO HERE! THEY WILL MAKE YOU ILL!
