  • "The food tasted great and the service was good as well. Will come back again for sure."

Cons:

  • "Servers were attentive albeit a little sad-looking? Smile more, boys! And keep it up."
  • "We are students and do food reviews on titok, we came in today on Friday afternoon. Not only was I disappointed with with the quality for the price. Veg was frozen, beef was dry and tasted old."

  • "Food was okay not fresh. But for the price of £16.40 for a bit of kung pao chicken and fried rice on a plate is robbery. Customer service lady behind counter was very unpleasant and my brother in law and I felt unwanted."
  • "Tables far too close together."
  • "The staff were welcoming and really helpful. The food however was bland and some of it tasted terrible. I spoke to the manager who then sent a member of staff over to deal with the issue."
  • "The food was nice. Would recommend the kung pao chicken along with noodles which was nice and had a good flavour to the chicken. Only thing was that it was supposed to be spicy but didn’t really have a kick or spice to it at all but more of a sweet flavour."

Price

Pros:

  • "Great food and amazing service. I would 100% recommend this restaurant and the waiter I had today."
  • "Food was very tasty. Big portions and fast service 👍🏻😋 and you must try Siew Mai (Open- face stream dumplings with a chicken and prawn filling) so delicious xx"
  • "I stopped at Mrs Chew’s today! Was super impressed by both the food and the customer service."
  • "Food was great, service was terrible, Fiz was so rude, he wouldn’t give his name, other staff told us. He wouldn’t allow us to have bubble tea from another store with our meal even though we had purchased all food to eat in then we were forced to buy drinks from mrs chews, disgusting service won’t be going back and don’t recommend"
  • "actually I see the bad review for Mrs chews ,is make me sad to see how do people come to a restaurant and write really nasty comment about Mrs chews... if me i don't like the food ! i will change something else"
  • "I went there last week for lunch, the food was soo tasty! I loved the chili oil, it completes the taste in ever dish, also the staff there was really friendly and helpful. Definitely will go there again"
  • "The Sichuan wontons were good but the filling was a little bland. I got the duck with rice which was delicious but I felt the skin could have been crispier as the duck was quite fatty . Would try again."
  • "Ive had food for take away from here and the food was so tasty and the staff so friendly , the portuguese manager was so patient and suggested the right food for my dietary requirements . Definitely coming back for a quick meal"

Cons:

  • "Pretty good halal Chinese food, especially with getting the Sichuan flavours right. Marking it down to 4 stars just cos it’s pricey."
  • "This place has a lot of potential but methinks they are trying to use cheaper versions of ingredients to boost their profit margin. Such a shame!"
  • "Even after knowing its located in a very busy train station, I enjoyed the experience. Prices are moderate but worth the value for sure."
  • "44 pound for 1 side veg, salt pepper chicken plus rice, sweat P fries, spinach noodles with veg, 1 lemon tea and 1 diet coke."
  • "Food was okay not fresh. But for the price of £16.40 for a bit of kung pao chicken and fried rice on a plate is robbery."
  • "We are students and do food reviews on titok, we came in today on Friday afternoon. Not only was I disappointed with with the quality for the price. Veg was frozen, beef was dry and tasted old."
  • "They make delicious food, very authentic. Portions are ok. Food is halal. Some of our favourites from the menu are chilli oil wonton, xiao long buns, dan dan noodle, roast duck. They offer discounts for nhs staffs. Easily accessible from the train station."
  • "Ordered food for delivery which was fast enough. The portion of chicken Kung Pao was quite small, the roast duck looked like a big portion but upon starting eating I realized it was full of bones and was soggy."
