About Raymonds Kitchen
Raymonds Kitchen is a Chinese takeaway on Bank St in Irvine, serving the menu for collection and delivery so food can be eaten off site. The kitchen covers a Chinese curry alongside chips as a side, and beef features across several dishes, including sweet and sour beef, beef in peking sauce, and beef chow mein, with the same peking sauce used on more than one plate. Salt and pepper chicken and satay chicken skewers with satay sauce round out the range. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis, with no reservations. It opens daily, evenings only, giving customers a set window to order each day. Delivery extends the menu to those staying home rather than eating in.

Customer Review Summary
The curry draws the most comment, and reviewers split on it. One calls it the best Chinese curry in the area, spicy and tasty, another describes a very spicy sauce with good portions, and a third found it dry and gloopy. Salt and pepper chicken with peking sauce and smoked shredded chicken with satay sauce earn praise for extra flavour. Chips are the most repeated weak point, described as bland, reheated, soggy, or burnt in places. Beef draws the sharpest complaints: a chow mein with overcooked, dry beef and a chemical taste, a sweet and sour beef that smelled unpleasant, and a fillet steak requested pink medium that arrived well done. Others mention slow delivery, food that was not warm, and curt manners on the phone and at the counter. Even the reviewer who found the chips lacking said the curry's flavour couldn't be beaten.

“Stopped off here tonight for takeaway. Won’t be back. Utter garbage. Satay chicken skewers were horrific. And the beef in a peking sauce tasted anything but peking. It actually looked like they had scraped some road kill up off the street.”

“Best Chinese curry ive tried in the area. I was a Lotus house frequent before, and tried Tatsu, but didn't rate that one. Curry was spicy and tasty. Chips could have been a bit better, portions also adequate could've been better but couldn't beat flavour. This is NOW my favourite Chinese in the area, for a Chinese curry. Delivery took quite long for a tuesday however.”

“🏅 exceptional! Huge serves, quality ingredients, super high standard chinkie. I travel from Sydney knowing that Raymond's will fix me up with probably the best Chinese food I've ever had. Always fast, friendly and value for money. I cannot fault it. Consistently a delight 🏅 …”

“Visited twice over the past few weeks for the first time in years and remembered why. The food can only be described as meh. Edible but nothing to write home about. Not even as much as a smile from the person taking the order.”
