About Kings Garden
On Main St in Ballyclare, Kings Garden is a Chinese takeaway run by a family, with a husband-and-wife and daughter team behind the counter. Orders are placed for collection on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken. Chicken fried rice is a regular order alongside the rest of the menu.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the Honey Chili Chicken and Salt & Chili Chicken, alongside praise for the family-run service, generous snack boxes, and portion sizes that several call good value. Close behind, diners describe the operation as friendly, with one crediting a courteous phone manner and others calling the owners lovely and prices reasonable. Also mentioned is a broad menu range compared favorably to other local takeaways. But a recurring thread of complaints runs alongside these accounts: several describe greasy food, with one detailing chips soggy enough to fall apart, chicken fried rice smothered in oil, and yellow prawn crackers. Others report wrong orders, missing items, or reheated dishes, and one reviewer found a bone in their chicken fried rice that put them off the meal. When issues arose, one reviewer said the business offered a discount on a future order but refused to remake the dish, and described the owner refusing to let them speak on the phone before hanging up.

“DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY. Several times have delivered with missing item, food that has been very clearly reheated and not fresh. Each time they will offer a discount on next order, but stand up everyone and send back your entire order. You are paying good money for this rubbish, they must learn. Refused to make the correct order, after retuning the food, just gave money back.Rang back and owner would not let me speak, just rambled then hung up. Do not give them your money. Do have to say, the delivery driver is really nice and has nothing to do with her nor the service she provides.”

“Fantastic family run Chinese Takeaway in Doagh County Antrim. Very friendly staff and the range of different dishes on their menu is much better than other Chinese Takeaways. Very reasonable prices too. Definitely worth going too.”
