About Oriental Chef

On High St. in London, Oriental Chef is a Chinese takeaway serving the area Tuesday through Sunday, evenings only, with Mondays closed. The kitchen turns out duck dishes, including Cantonese-style duck and duck with black bean sauce, alongside the usual takeaway range. There is no dine-in seating, and food is ordered for collection or delivery, so it suits those eating off site. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis rather than by reservation. The entrance is step-free and wheelchair-accessible, making it workable for visitors with mobility needs. Delivery extends the menu to nearby streets for anyone who prefers to eat at home rather than wait at the counter.

Customer Review Summary

The complaints are specific and recurring. Two customers of many years say quality has dropped, one reporting prawn balls and spring rolls dripping in oil, with the prawn balls tasting a little off. Others describe dry, tasteless noodles that seemed to come from the freezer, a very salty dish, and a chicken satay with chips that came as six small chunks of chicken and a kids-sized portion of chips. One reviewer also calls the owner unprofessional. Some call the prices reasonable for London, yet one felt the duck portion was poor value.

    “Worst place to order, to customers give this place a miss. Food and service is rubbish. Owner unprofessional a ne Chinese should open up as this place is not good enough.”
  • Gina Jones
    “Very salty dish.I haven't eaten Chinese in a long time am not in a rush to have it again.😞 …”
  • Zarah Fernando
    “We really enjoyed all of our dishes yesterday. The cantonese style pork and schezuan stir fried chicken were very tasty and the duck with black bean sauce had the perfect amount of chilli pairing well with a side of pak choi. Definitely …”
  • Zhenz
    “We used to order from here occasionally over the years, but sadly the quality of the food has gone downhill. I can’t believe I paid £12 for these small, dry pieces of duck. They weren’t fresh, were over-deep-fried, and definitely not Cantonese-style duck.”
  • Adrian
    “Really good!, Not ordered in a couple of years but glad I did. The special fried rice was spot on.”
