Came here for the first time in 6 years. Son loved the Beef curry and orders it every time. Special Fried rice is very special. Singapore noodles lovely and spicy. We have missed this place and will not wait as long to treat ourselves to this little gem of a takeaway again. Hope it never changes
I tried this takeaway on Saturday evening for the first time. I was encouraged upon entering to see that there were several people waiting and several more people came into order whilst I was waiting for my food. I only wanted special chow mein and was taken aback at the high price of £8.30 which is considerably more than my normal takeaway. I thought the food must be very good given the amount of people waiting but I’m sorry to say that it was absolutely appalling. It was watery and tasteless. Usually chow mien comes mixed together but when I opened the box there was a layer of bean sprouts followed by a layer of noodles and then the meat on the top. It was very strange. I certainly will not revisit or recommend to others.
I am very sad to write this as in the past everything has been fabulous. The last time we ordered from Sunflower (before last night) we were disappointed. The food was simply ‘not up to standard’ However, we accepted it as a ‘one off’ rather than a write off. Last weekend, at my daughter’s in Ruskington we had our usual order, special chowmein and sweet sour chicken. Fabulous. My step daughter is with us this weekend and she fancied Chinese so we put our order in, our usual and her order Well, what has happened? One bag of warm chicken bits coated in (possibly) breadcrumbs, one bag of large chicken pieces in beautifully golden batter, obviously freshly (half) cooked. Batter beautiful on the outside raw mush on the inside which made the chicken inedible. Warm, not hot, sauces in separate foil containers. One was hot chilli and one was sweet sour. Both looked identical with a sprinkle of chopped garnish floating on the top. We had to taste to distinguish. As they went cold they became a gloopy substance and the bottom of the SS sauce was grainy and burnt. The last chow mien we got was dry so a portion of SS sauce was ordered. This came minus garnish. The chow mien was ordered with vermicelli noodles. They arrived as fat and flat. The best part of our meal was the rice I popped into the microwave as husband walked in with our much anticipated, seriously disappointing food. I am sorry Sunflower, I have never wasted so much food. None of us are picky eaters but none of what we received was even ‘ok’ Embarrassing
5 Star Hygiene, but 1 star everything else.. Food was abismal. All dishes came dry but with random assorted pots of slop which i assume were sauces meant for the dishes but which. The ribs was just burnt bone with no meat at all on them to even try. No colour to the beef and prawn crackers out of a grab bag... UNEDABLE AVOID!
Delicious food as always. As usual very busy. Worth the wait. 5*
Didn't order much and glad I didn't,. Chicken chow mein was watery and had no flavour. Salt and pepper chips were just normal chips with veg. Lastly chicken balls and sauce were not nice. Overall really disappointed
We ordered today when I went in the women was ignorant and ignored me for about 2 minutes. When I got home the food was stale and dry with little flavour and could only be describe as the scraps out of the pan. It was rockcsolid and you could tell it was frozen.
