We took out food from Happy swan Yesterday. One of my Spring rolls was so greasy that it stuck to the paper bag it came on ,leaving some of it's outer skin behind. Tasty it was not. There was also hardly any meat in there a far, far cry from the fantastic spring rolls they used to do.The duck ones used to be even better. The Singapore noodles were ok, but nothing special whatsoever. This assessment stands also in description of the lamb in satay sauce, vegetarian mini spring rolls, fried rice and the other noodle dish we had. All in all this means that we are now most likely looking for a new Chinese restaurant to go to/order from. There is one about 200 metres away from happy swan. Maybe they have upped their game? We'll try it and see. Happy swan used to be fantastic! Their duck spring rolls used to be worth the visit alone, their Sunday lunch was great fun and really, really tasty. The food used to be GOOD! Are they under new management? New cooks in the kitchen, or do they just not care any more and are cutting corners left, right and centre? Just to be clear once more: We did not eat in the restaurant but took out. What a shame!
The service was friendly and polite. Unfortunately the food was very below par the mixed seafood starter was drenched in oil. The squid was rubbery. Our main course was so poor, and full of cheap ingredients mixed seafood in chilli sauce had baby prawns, rubbery poorly prepared squid and cut crab sticks. The sauce tasted like cheap chilli sauce from a bottle. The chilli beef was too sweet and inedible. The rice was the meanest portion we’d ever seen. The mixed veg had hardly any variety just cheap carrots, onion and tiny bits of broccoli. The bamboo shoots seemed to be from a tin. We came in hungry and left barely satisfied. My drink was flat. Later we learnt that the business is due to close and that could explain the indifference of the chefs. Such a shame because the owner is charming and clearly well regarded. I can imagine in its heyday the food was lovely and with such lovely service although the setting leaves much to be desired it could have been a nice restaurant. If a new manager takes over, a new kitchen team would be a good first step.
This used to be my favourite Chinese restaurant/takeaway, but that has changed since my last experience (takeaway). I asked for singapore noodles without meat but with tofu instead. They charged extra for it without telling me. I complained but the waitress didn't do anything about it. The noodle was soggy and tasteless. The vegetable sweet and sour was a disaster. Just a few vegetables swimming in the sea of disgusting sauce; lots and lots of horrible sauce that was either cheaply bought or made. It is absolutely unacceptable that they charge 4.20 for that. This used to be a good place with a reliable customer service and tasty food. It is clear that something has changed and they stopped caring. I do not know what happened to this once good restaurant, but they now seem to only care about taking customer's money. It is highly disappointing, but I will not order from/visit this place again.
Our order took so long to come. When I rang to find out where the food was the first time the lady said 15 mins (it had already been over an hour) the food still didn’t come, I rang and the lady said it was out to delivery. The food didn’t arrive for another 40 mins and was cold when it finally got to us. I was also told they don’t normally except orders from where I live…..which clearly wasn’t my call….and it was Christmas. Really bad service and very average food. Would recommend you to avoid!
