Customer Review Summary

Lemon chicken and the house special chow mein draw the strongest praise, described as flavourful and generous, with prawn crackers and quick delivery also noted. Several call portions and quality among the best they've had. One longtime customer, though, reports ribs, chicken balls and prawn toast arriving reheated and the egg fried rice oddly yellow, while another describes an "Oriental" order gone wrong, calling seventy pounds wasted.

    “We have been using this takeaway for years. The food We had last night was not good. The ribs, chicken balls and prawn toast were all old and been reheated. The egg fried rice was weird . It was yellow? Hardly any egg. See the photo We were very disappointed. We have seen the front of house staff change quite a few times. We wanted a meal cooked by someone else but had we known it was going to be like this we would have got something from Sainsbury's or Waitrose and warmed it up ourselves as that was all they had done. A real shame as it used to be by far the best Chinese takeaway in East Grinstead .”

    “Generous portion sizes, good prices, speedy service, and honestly some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. Will be visiting whenever I'm in town.”

    “Don’t understand the negative reviews. I thought the food was great. Not greasy, tasty, decent portions and delivery was pretty quick for a Saturday night. No complaints from me.”
  • Jamie McIntosh
    “Really disappointed... I'd avoid this place if you're looking for a decent dinner. The Oriental is our usual and it's top stuff, very much regret trying this place.... £70 down the drain! …”
  • T J
    “Lemon chicken 10/10 with a unique tart flavour. House special chow mein pictures, may look small and expensive at £6.50 but it was possible the best I have ever had. Genuine ingredients, unique chicken, beautiful pork and non greasy noodles. Prawn crackers also great. The prices may be premium, but the quality of the food is beyond premium.”
