Quick info
About De Garden
De Garden on London Road is a Chinese restaurant in Portsmouth that also runs as a takeaway, with a Malaysian side to the menu alongside the familiar Chinese range. The kitchen prepares the regular lineup of chicken dishes and fried rice, and vermicelli and salt and pepper chicken turn up among the more specific plates on offer. Service runs on a walk-in basis, and orders placed through delivery apps such as Uber Eats feed into the same kitchen. The dining room and takeaway counter share the same address, so customers can sit in or collect to eat elsewhere.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers are split. Praise centers on the salt and pepper chicken, one calling the box with vermicelli a must have, with others noting food that arrived hot and tasty, plus chicken chow mein and chicken balls. Complaints are sharper: several report raw or undercooked salt and pepper chicken, melted plastic tubs with strands of plastic in the food, and burnt-tasting Ham Fried Rice. One delivery order was refunded.

“Ordered through uber eats, and thank god I got my money back. The chicken was raw, the plastic tubs the food came in were melted and the melted plastic looked like little hairs all in the food, had to throw the whole lot away”
- Alfred Macdonald
“DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE! The food was completely inedible. Ham Fried Rice tasted of old and burnt oil, Salt and Pepper Chicken was undercooked, practically raw. Foul smell to the whole order and plastic containers had also been burn and melted with strings of melted plastic throughout the food. Save your money and spend elsewhere, avoid this place completely! I would give no stars if able!”

“Very good food… salt and pepper chicken box with vermicelli is a MUST HAVE. 10/10 from me..”
- Josh Cole
“Food was absolutely spot on. I was slightly worried by some of the reviews and ratings but I’m glad I tried for myself. Food arrived earlier than predicted, piping hot, very tasty and very reasonably priced. Awesome stuff.”
- Adrian
“This was quite possibly the worst food I’ve ever ordered in any country , there was so much salt on it I feel sick , never eat here it’s not remotely tasty it’s obviously all microwaved none of it’s cooked to order I’d honestly rather have the juice at the bottom of my bin, how this establishment is still in business absolutely astounds me”
