Ordered 4 seperate dishes for a family takeaway, all 4 dishes had completely zero flavour and somehow tasted off at the same time, shortly after eating we all experienced stomach pains, had the customer service been more pleasant I would've called and complained, anyone thinking of stopping here for a nice meal, please avoid it.

Friendly staff
Hello I just was to say the food and the service was excellent and myself and my partner and her son are down for the long weekend and it was such a lovely place to come and to have some lovely food thanks so much we will be back again
My order of the Beef in Spicy Hot Garlic Sauce was a perplexing experience. I must commend the chef for achieving a level of flavour neutrality I previously thought impossible. Despite the description, the dish contained absolutely zero evidence of chili—no flakes, no seeds, and no heat. It was so bland that I was forced to perform a complete flavour reconstruction upon arriving home, integrating my own chilies and sauces to render the meal edible. This was less a restaurant meal and more a bland canvas I was overcharged for. I will not be returning
