Ordered takeaway to whiteley. Mainly because the whiteley Chinese is bloody rubbish with warmed up microwave food. Can't pay by card.... If the whiteley Chinese existed in a city it would go bust in a day.... Rubbish... Anyway, so ordered from riverside. Rude... Arrogant service, overpriced.. Living on an outdated reputation!

This must be the worst service I have ever experienced - who do they think they are? I found the waiters and manager unbelievably arrogant and totally lacked any sense of customer focus.
