Customer Review Summary
Reviewers who rate Golden Chef highly return for big portions of Chinese takeaway, with the duck, chicken wings and chips singled out as yummy, plus salt and pepper chips, fried rice and chicken curry that fed two. Close behind are fast local delivery and drivers described as friendly, with food arriving hot and sometimes earlier than quoted. One reviewer also rates the curry sauce very good. The negative reviews are almost as numerous and specific. The fish and chip shop items draw the sharpest complaints: battered cod compared to a frozen supermarket variety, hard oily batter and rock hard chips, and warm chips. One order of char siu fried rice had tiny fatty pieces of meat, and the replacement was only slightly better. Salt and pepper chicken was binned after two bites, and another meal was said to taste microwaved. Several describe phone contact as abrupt, including a hang-up during a complaint and walk-in customers placed behind phone orders. One complaint did end in a full refund.

“Couldn't believe how bad the food was, ill the next day after tasting it. Got a full refund obviously. Complained over the phone to them. They hung up. Disgraceful behaviour. Food tasted awful. Looked as if was warmed up in microwave. Never again ordering food from this place.”
- Amy Bamber
“We always order from Golden Chef for both Chinese meals and chippy! Always ready quickly and delivered early when ordering online, and the food is always amazing and plenty of it!! We never go anywhere else now!”
