  “Best Chinese takeaway on Anglesey in my opinion.”

  “Grand quality, but where's the wok hei? A modern twist in Holyhead! I can totally see why this place gets cracking reviews. The quality is grand, everything is fresh, piping hot, and they don't skimp on the portions at all. You get proper steak-cut chips and lovely quality beef and chicken. But for me, it felt like they’re trying to put a modern, clever twist on classic takeaway cooking, and it just went a bit too far down the road. The sauces seemed to be chasing a retro Western vibe rather than that authentic Chinese flavour we all know and love. The curry sauce was more like a mild chicken stock, missing that lovely, complex heat. Then the garlic and chilli sauce had this deep, beefy base that tasted more like a winter casserole, with the actual garlic and chilli only turning up as an afterthought. The fried rice was bright yellow too, clearly coloured with something, though I couldn't spot any saffron. It just made me wonder what the point was. When you order fried rice, you're after that beautiful "wok hei"—that smoky, charred magic from a blazing wok. That's what makes it. Look, they’re clearly busy and the locals seem to love it, so fair play to them. But if you're traveling through Holyhead and fancy a traditional, old-school Anglo-Chinese takeaway, just be aware this is a bit of a different beast. With thousands of visitors passing through the port, it's worth knowing about the modern twist before you spend your hard-earned cash. Grand quality, just a bit of a different flavour profile than you might expect.”

  “One of the top two Chinese takeaways I've ever had - we're visiting the area and decided to give it a try. It was so worth it! Each portion is enough for 2-3 people to share and packed full of fresh vegetables (broccoli, carrots, mangetouts, water chestnuts etc). We ordered special house rice that came with juicy prawns and loads of different slices of tender meats and more fresh vegetables. Plus vegetable chow mein that was excellent. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the crispy chicken balls in sweet and sour sauce... And don't forget the chips! This was way too much for just two of us so we'll be having it for dinner tomorrow. £25 for essentially 2 meals for 2 of us is excellent value. Shame we can't return but it's a bit far to travel from Denbigh, even for such excellent tasty cuisine😉 Lady serving was very nice, place was clean and there were locals coming in so it must be good for them too.”

  “Helo Ladies and Gentleman, this is your only stop for Chinese/Cantonese in Holyhead. It can't be matched. I know because I've tried. Years ago, they started out as another company, that was well know and their food loved, all day every day. After so long of serving Holyheads community. They ended where they are now. I followed their every move, and after trying all the others, I'm definitely going to state a fact that they are the best. Whatever you want or whatever you fancy, they are at the top of their game. I sincerely recommend Lotus Garden and recognise there complete professional and authentic food they supply. What you see is what you get! What you see, and what you order, is their belief in their customers. Endless customer satisfaction, back by English Food Authorities highest award. Phone and ask! You won't be disappointed....”

  “I ordered duck, what I got some digusting mash of duck meat (binned). HarKau and XiuMai was acompanied with some red sweet chilli sauce instead of light soy sauce with some vinegar as supposed to be (sauce gone to the bin). Broccoli with onion was generally tasteless and about 50/50 percentage as onion was used to fill up the box. I was living 12 years in China this is not Chinese food. 我在中国生活了12年，这不是中国菜.”

  “food was cold and greasy and the driver took my change. we waited an hour for cold food my friends food was absolutely soaked in sauce it was seeping out of the tray, i wouldn’t recommend unless you are patient and don’t mind a belly ache. £30 for loads of crap. i get they may have been busy but 1 hour is not what we wanted after being told 20-30 minutes.”

  “A great pit stop for food when you're getting off the ferry from Dublin! We go here to get the Crispy shredded beef and boiled rice, as a main course. It is plenty for two hungry adults! Delicious too! They only take cash, so go prepared and don't miss out.”

  “First time I’ve ordered from this particular Chinese Take Away in Holyhead and won’t be the last! Courteous staff and delivery driver and prompt delivery. The food is really good we had mixed vegetable curry with boiled rice, Beef chow mein, Salt and pepper chicken and chips. The food tasted really fresh and was delicious with generous portions. A complimentary portion of prawn crackers was also provided and as the order was over £20 there was no delivery charge. So if you’re local or just visiting this place is well worth trying out.”
