Food was bland and service dreadful. Update, just saw restaurants comments and clearly didn’t remember who I was. I was on my own and seated alone in back corner next to bar. No one was seated near me. I ate 1/2 and asked the rest be boxed as takeout. Never ate the rest. Never spoke to any other customers and certainly didn’t try anyone’s food.

Maybe the decor is somewhat dated but the food certainly makes up for it. Everybody raved about the egg fried rice and the starters and main courses were absolutely top notch. A bit of fun trying to communicate with the waitress but hey ho. Definitely recommend........

Very fast delivery, standard Chinese-style special curry and rice. Food was delivered at just the right temperature. Good comfort food.

My girlfriend and I made a day out of travelling to St Andrews and were both craving a Chinese meal… we were not disappointed. I have had the best beef curry and egg friend rice I’ve ever had in my life… and finished off with a fantastic banana split ? we’ll definitely be spending the hour and a half travel more often to visit this fantastic small restaurant. 10/10

As bad a chinese meal as I've ever had, tasteless watery sauces, dry meat, bang bang chicken was basically just soggy batter, satay was full of onions carrots and bizarrely celeryand Pineapple! Chips were a disgrace aswell. Very disappointing.

We stopped for take away her on Thursday 29th June. The portions are disgraceful. The food was very poor very very small portions really a rip off we felt we ordered a good few items and The chicken balls were tuff as old boots as was the chopped chicken curry. The salt and pepper chicken wings not good either and The beef and mushroom had hardly any beef mostly all mushrooms. We also ordered duck portion again it was find the duck mostly vegetables. I would not every use this take away ever again. To be honest we get Chinese takeaway from our local and we have never had an experience like this with half portions. Avoid at all cost we were left a very hungry family and it was not cheap!!!!!!

Very sorry to say buy the food was just poor. We were the only table in on a Saturday night at around 8pm which should have set off warning bells. Lady who served us was friendly enough but the food was so poor, it was hugely disappointing. The phoenix prawns were like rubber and completely tasteless, although the manager assured us they were fresh?! Tasted frozen to me. The crispy pork wontons were soggy around the meat, and while I appreciate there was some shrimp paste in the mix, they had an unpleasant fishy aftertaste. As if they were fried in the same frier they were using for fish. We had one individual wonton/prawn off each dish and left the rest. All the sauces provided were bought in and low quality and overall seasoning was either non-existent or over done. Having looked at reviews afterwards here on TA it seems like they are paying people for 5* reviews as there is nothing authentic about the cooking here. Almost untouched dishes were cleared without asking if anything was wrong and when presented with the bill we said we didn't feel it was fair to pay for the prawns (at that point thinking this was already generous on our part as we didn't eat the wontons either), at which point the manager was called and started haggling with us, telling us taste is subjective... overall it was a very expensive round of starters, half untouched, and a fairly awkward experience.
