About China's Taste

On Highbury Park, China's Taste is a Chinese takeaway where the food is cooked in front of customers. The kitchen turns out beef in black bean sauce, sweet and sour chicken, and chow mein, alongside chips, curry sauce, and prawn crackers for the classic takeaway combinations. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis at the counter, and the shop opens daily. Beyond collection and delivery, there is also room to sit and eat the food inside the shop, so the cooking taking place at the front of house is visible to those eating in as well as those waiting on an order.

Customer Review Summary

Beef in black bean sauce draws repeat praise, alongside sweet and sour chicken, chow mein, and curry sauce with prawn crackers, with several noting food arrives piping hot and portions are generous. Close behind, regulars describe consistent kindness from staff, quick service, and occasional extras thrown in without asking, including one last minute order add with no extra charge. Delivery speed and consistency come up repeatedly as reasons customers return, some daily during lunch. Against this, two accounts stand apart: one reviewer describes being served what they believed were frozen ribs and rude treatment including a physical incident between staff, and another reports an order taken and paid for, then cancelled because a driver would not complete the drive, with a promised refund not received and a dismissive response when calling the store.

    “The staff was so rude especially the woman. They were about to cook me frozen ribs. When I questioned it the woman hit the son to stop him from answering me. They never smiled once at me. Bad energy. Won't spend my money here again.”
