"Popped in on my way home from work to pick up a lovely meal for the family. It was delicious and we highly recommend it to others. The only downside is that they don't take card payments so you have to use cash, luckily the Co-op down the road has a cash machine. 👍"

"Our favourite Chinese in the local area. Not best Chinese I've ever had but this is the one I keep coming back to - very nice and enjoyable. Overall experience was average leading to good. I've tried 4 other Chinese takeaways in the Sleaford area and I'd not go back to any of them but this one is my go to."
Kyle Rogers
"Some of the best english styled chinese food in the area, only accept cash but that has never changed in all the years I've gone. If you order at the counter you might have to wait."
