About Oriental Cottage

Oriental Cottage is a Chinese takeaway at 28 Main St in Kilmarnock, open daily in the evenings only. The kitchen prepares each meal to order rather than ahead of time. The menu includes crispy aromatic duck, chow mein and salt and chilli dishes, so there is a choice between a roast-duck dish, a noodle plate and spiced options. Evening opening every day of the week makes it a dependable option for a takeaway dinner.

Customer Review Summary

Wrong orders are the dominant complaint. Reviewers describe chicken fried rice arriving instead of chow mein, a vegetarian dish containing meat, and a delivered dish that is not on the menu, with missing items arriving much later or never. Late delivery comes next, and several say the food was cold, dried up, or came with dry chips and rice. A few report being charged more than the menu price. Individual dishes draw criticism too: greasy chicken balls and onion rings, a bland curry, fried rice with overpowering soy sauce, and beef with green pepper that was too spicy. One reviewer reports finding hairs in their food and describes the kitchen as filthy. A couple of longtime customers say the place is normally decent or very good, and that this was an off night. Phone handling is the most heated theme. Several say staff hung up when they called to correct an order, and one says dozens of repeat calls went unanswered.

    “I have been getting here since I was a little boy normally is a decent place to get food from but not tonight not only did they send chicken fried rice instead of chow main but when I phoned them and got it corrected and I went to eat my food and it tasted like they had put a life’s worth of sodium with the amount of soy sauce so I phoned again and they had the nerve to hang up total experience was completely and utterly rubbish”

    “So Sat night 5:15pm phoned in an order. Arrived 40 minutes later paid the guy and when we looked at our order it wasn’t what we ordered !! Called them up and they said they would get our correct order out to us ! 7pm and no food has arrived called them up and was told the delivery guy is on his way but has other deliveries to do 😤 You would think under the circumstances our delivery would have been first instead we are still waiting… Would never use this Chinese carry out again !! So update now 7:15pm and the delivery arrived and its wrong 😡So hubby is driving round with the two wrong orders to get a refund. So no dinner for us tonight we are absolutely fuming”
