After a rainy day during our holiday, we decided to indulge in a Chinese meal in our cottage. However, we regretted our decision! It was the worst Chinese food I have ever tasted. The chicken chow mein was bland and slimy, the chicken curry seemed like it was reheated from a cheap chip shop curry packet and the 1/2 duck we paid £21 for still had large bones in it and was not shredded properly. The sweet and sour sauce was watery and lacked the usual sweet and sticky consistency. While we understand that during the peak of summer they may be overwhelmed by tourists like us and standards may slip, it is important to remember that we are still paying customers and deserve the same level of serv...
This is the worst Chinese I have ever had. The food was positively disgusting. Sweet Sour chicken was nothing like the Chinese takeaway in Cheltenham. The egg fried rice was awful and again was nothing like I’m used to. I’m surprised this takeaway is still trading. As soon as you walk in the lady behind the counter says ‘cash only. I would like the council to visit this establishment and check their hygiene rating. My advice don’t go.
Would not order again. Although the food arrived in super quick time and was hot 2 of the dishes were not good. Chow mein was more of gravy and hardly any crunchy bean sprouts. The soup was so thick and was horrible. The biggest off put was the delivery driver. Greasy filthy dirty hands. Delivery guy may have 2 jobs but if delivering food at least wash your filthy hands!!
Such a great experience with my visit to this takeaway, being pleasant, fast and best of all is the great quality food i walked away with. absolutely delicious. so use to chicken balls from other chinese restaurants being super greasy and soggy. this isn’t the case with this place. highly HIGHLY recommend

We've used this takeaway for a few year now while staying in St Ives for Christmas. This year (and the last 2) we've been a 5 minute walk away. Service always quick and food always tasty. Great value meal for one £13.50 and enough to share between the 2 of us with small appetites! See you next Christmas!
Tasteless noodles in gravy. No spice, no flavour. Battered satay chicken in watery gravy with mushrooms!!! Not a peanut in sight! Lacklustre sweet and no sour over cooked chicken balls. Need to up their game.. feel sorry for you if you cooked this but mate... it's not Chinese.
The Tubby Blong jelly belly delivery driver in an old VW car thought it was necessary to yell a lot of offensive words at me, insulting my race. This person is the most ignorant individual in Cornwall.
We have been ordering takeout from this restaurant for years, and it is some of the best takeout food we have ever had. The menu for four people is great value for the price.

Had a takeaway from here, poor quality all tasted of vinegar (sweet chilli beef/noodles). Sadly doesn’t appear to be a decent Chinese in St Ives.
Never tried this place before but after 40years of eating Chinese meals I can honestly say this is the best iv ever had
