I had my first takeaway from here on a recommendation and I'm pleased to say it was the nicest Chinese meal I've had for a long time. I'll be returning here to try more lovely food. I had a Beef Satay and Rice, it was delicious, the only one I've had where I could taste the peanut flavour. My Husband had the Chicken Chow mein, it was cooked with vermacelli rice noodles and was also very delicious, fresh and just a lovely flavour.
This is the best Chinese food I've eaten Staff are so friendly Always a pleasure going here Never had a bad experience Five star all day long
The friendly staff, nice food, and substantial portions keep you full for a while! I'm always back here again!
Ordered fired rice, crispy chicken and ribs. Everything tasted amazing and good portion sizes. Highly recommend.
What an amazing dinner served by lovely family business! Tasty food, fairly loaded and good price. Highly recommended! Definitely will come back on regular basis. Thank you Crystal
I’ve been trying out various Chinese takeaways around the area lately, trying to find the best one and I’ll be honest, I think Crystal are right up near the top of the list. The food we had last night was superb. All freshly cooked, tasty and more importantly cooked well. We were very impressed and will definitely be back.
One of the best takeaways I've had the pleasure to eat from, when visiting Dunchurch its always a must have, Anna loves the garlic fried rice she orders plenty for a few days, very tasty good service and great waiting area if you haven't pre ordered
The best tasting chinese food for a long while. Polite pleasant staff. A tiny bit more expensive than some other Chinese takeaways, but food is better!
Cash-only and you have to pick up your order, but definitely worth it for the best Chinese takeaway in the area. Service is quick and dishes are full of good quality meat and fresh veg; and never greasy. Plenty of parking nearby. Free prawn crackers are normally provided.
Always good food and polite service,I’ve been coming here for years and never had a bad meal.
