About Waterside Chinese
At 4 Waterside in Evesham, Waterside Chinese is a small Chinese takeaway shop. The menu follows the familiar takeaway format, with chicken curry and curry sauce sitting alongside chips as well as the Chinese dishes. Sweet and sour dishes are part of the range, including sweet and sour pork Hong Kong style, and the kitchen also prepares Peking spare ribs. Because the shop is compact, it works as a place to collect an order rather than sit down. It opens in the evenings only and is closed on Tuesdays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers mostly describe a takeaway that has declined, with long-time customers saying the fried rice has become a clump of brown, gluey rice. Chicken curry is the most frequent complaint, called bland, short on sauce, or not great, and one order arrived with prawns in it. Burnt food recurs too: black spare ribs, sweet and sour pork that was partly black, and crispy beef described as rancid and cooked in old oil. Others cite greasy noodles, too much soy in the chow mein, watery sweet and sour sauce, and rice that tasted of plastic. Delivery draws mixed comments, with one reviewer calling it quick and hot and another reporting open containers and sauce leaked through the bag. A few praise the chicken, the chips, and the staff, and one reviewer calls it the best in Evesham with larger portions. One diner who ordered lemon chicken received pineapple instead and was still waiting on a reply after sending a photo.

“The food we ordered was really poor. Most of it went in the bin. Greasy and just really poor quality. No idea what they think prawn toast actually is but theirs was terrible. Worst Chinese we have ever ordered and would never use again. Avoid !!”

“The quality of the sweet and sour pork hong kong style was very poor. Some of it was black due to either overcooking or reheating. The sauce was over sweet , not sweet and sour but sweet and sweet. The plain chow mein had far too much soy sauce . Portions not particularly big considering the price. I would avoid at all costs.”

“Ordered a takeaway from waterside chinese and spent over £40. No idea what you have done recently but your food tastes awful. Curry sauce and chow mein taste nothing like they should have and the chicken curry wasn't great either. Honestly whatever you have changed recently please revert back to how you used to cook your food. Sadly wont be ordering again”
