Lordy lord if anyone from south edinburgh (burdiehouse area) reads this then this is the closest to Linda's as your going to get! I was recommended this place by a mate and she hit the nail in the head the food was out of this world fresh oil veg cooked perfect, their sweet and sour chilli beef was that good you would sell your yer maw for a plate of it everything was 10/10 deffo my go to place now 1 trillion %
This one is tough to review. The wonton soup is fragrant and delicious, the battered chicken with sweet and sour sauce is crispy, juicy and succulent and well seasoned, the prawns in satay sauce were gorgeous and all dishes seem to come with a healthybalanceofveggies. The beef in Blackbean sauce was OK but we think let the side down (either that or the prawn crackers) as several of us had loose bowels after consumption. Highly Recommend the chef reduces the menu choices massively and focuses on authentic Chinese dishes ensuring fresh ingredients in a clean kitchen are always used. The cooking is too good to be undermined like this.
We had a really good meal tonight from Kwans couldn't be better. Really recommend it.
Excellent meal hot on delivery and very tasty ! Excellent prompt delivery.
Strange times, COVID restrictions in place remember. I phoned at 1833hrs (there's a fb page but no online ordering) and asked for beef curry fried rice, special curry boiled rice and rice & chips with sweet and sour sauce so nothing weird. The chap told me 40 minutes but I realised when walking round it was cash only (£20.12) and I only had contactless or a card so returned for the folding stuff putting me comfortably over the 40 minutes.
On arrival the shop was pretty packed, with a more or less orderly queue of bodies outside except for a throng at the door. I went straight in to collect my food and when at the counter alas!...not ready, but they kindly relieved me of the money and sent me outside to the cold, dark and drizzly night. The next 20 minutes dragged by before being called forward to collect my food at the still throngy door. Some had brought vehicles and sat listening to Radio 3 Live from the Met with demisters and engines running on a narrow street with people occasionally spilling onto the roadway-as the weather worsens so will this aspect of carry out food while-you-wait.
The food is still tasty, I especially like the cut and texture of the onions, all correct, no complaints. Just need more planning the next time. Or the server to be realistic with a pick up time. Maybe they only start cooking once you've paid and are definitely there, but you'd never get them to tell you this anyway, my conjecture only.
Food was pathetic, worst takeaway I have had.
Ordered a mixed vegetable chow mein, there was pieces of chicken in my dish. I phoned them to let them know and was given an excuse that the box of vegetables and box of chicken sit next to each other and that must be why it had happened. No apology. No obvious concern for the cross contamination that had happened. Poor customer service on the phone. Sub par food. And if they are that lax about cross contamination I would be very concerned about anyone with allergies getting food from there.
I will say however, the two young girls that served us when we went in to order were nice and helpful.
Excellent service & food, can’t comment on atmosphere as we had takeaways.
