About Xing Long Chinese Takeaway
On Castle Rd in Scarborough, Xing Long Chinese Takeaway serves the standard Chinese takeaway menu for collection on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken. It opens evenings only, Tuesday to Sunday, and stays closed on Mondays. Orders placed with the counter used to come with a Chinese calendar included, a small extra that once accompanied the food out the door. The format keeps things simple, with the counter handling orders directly rather than through table service.

Customer Review Summary
Singapore dishes draw the most mentions, with reviewers praising the Singapore vermicelli and a well cooked, nicely spiced Singapore fried rice. Close behind are the salt and pepper spare ribs, the salt and pepper mix, and shredded chilli chicken with crisp batter and a tasty sauce. Others single out the chicken satay, the satay sauce, crispy seaweed and the chips. Portions are described as generous and prices as reasonable. Friendly staff and polite, kind delivery drivers come up repeatedly, and several mention easy website ordering. Long-time customers say the food never disappoints. The criticisms are minor. One reviewer found little meat in the Singapore fried rice, another chose to collect rather than risk cold food or a long delivery estimate after reading bad reviews, and a third said the reception sofa has seen better days. One collection order was ready quickly and hot, in a box so full it had to be sellotaped shut.
