About China Town

On Lower Northam Rd in Southampton, China Town is a Chinese takeaway serving hot food for pick up and delivery. A dedicated gluten free menu runs alongside the regular offering, including gluten free battered sweet and sour Hong Kong-style chicken, with other dishes marked gluten free on the menu or lids. The wider range covers chicken balls, salt and pepper chicken chunks, and chow mein, alongside fried rice, prawn crackers, and bbq ribs. Orders are taken by phone or in person, on a walk-in basis, and dishes are prepared fresh to order rather than held precooked. Delivery reaches the surrounding area for an added charge.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers repeatedly point to the shredded chilli beef and salt and pepper chicken chunks as standouts, with several also praising the chicken balls batter, smoked shredded chicken, and bbq ribs for arriving fresh and full of flavour, and one gluten free customer highlighting the crispy gluten free battered chicken and clearly labelled menus. Portion sizes draw consistent praise, and staff are repeatedly described as polite and helpful, with one recommending dishes to a first time customer. Complaints center on delivery: one reviewer waited over two and a half hours for food described as inedible after a driver couldn't find the address, and another describes a 45 pound order arriving cold after an hour and 20 minutes, with hard, rubbery chicken and a confrontation with the owner when they returned it, resulting in only a partial refund rather than a replacement. A separate reviewer notes food wasn't as hot as usual and questioned a 2 pound delivery charge.

    “I am absolutely disgusted by how myself and partner was treated this evening by this man who owns this Chinese takeaway. We had ordered for delivery spend around £45 on food, we had waited 1hr and 20 minutes for our food to even be delivered when it had arrived it was stone cold and to top it off a few pieces of the chicken in our curry was hard and some were rubbery. We had driven to take the food we ordered back hoping they would resolve the issue but we was greeted to be screamed at by the owner being told we are liars and that he doesn’t care about us being a customers this means nothing to him apparently or his takeaway. We had spoke to this man calmly as we have been going here for over a year now never had an issue and have always been loyal customers which he knows not once ever complained about his food as it’s always been great. I am disgusted that as loyal customer we have been treated and spoken to like this in-front of a shop full of people on top of telling us never to return because we experienced one bad night of cold food with a few issues with the chicken. We never got a replacement for the food which was all we wanted and only was aloud £20 of our money back. Vile behaviour should be ashamed of your behaviour to your customers.”

    “Exceptional!!! This was our first time ordering from here as it was recommended to me by a few people who are gluten free like myself .. and It did not disappoint. Everything we ordered was full of flavour and amazing 😍 and so happy that they offer gluten free battered chicken too so it’s still crispy (like sweet&sour Hong Kong style) 😍. My whole family were so impressed. Portion sizes were great every pot full to the top. So much left over for tomorrow😁 They even put a normal and gluten free menu in the bag for us for future and took the time to write on the lid of all the dishes that are naturally gluten free and crossed out items on the menu that aren’t. Will 10000% be ordering from here again. So tasty.”
