On First Ave in Stafford, GOLDEN CHEF Chinese Takeaway is a takeaway restaurant at number 107 that opens in the evenings only and closes on Tuesdays. Delivery orders over a minimum spend come with a free bag of prawn crackers. The menu lists appetisers, salt and pepper chicken and Singapore chow mein, with curry sauce as another menu item.

“We was driving home from Manchester to Birmingham and wanted some food on the way after a long day. The food was lovely the best Noodles I've tasted. Was constantly busy with people going in and out and many having large orders.”

“We have used golden chef for the last couple of years, told my friends how good it was, however the last 2 takeaways we have had have been awful 😞 The curry sauce does not taste the same the chicken in the curry has definitely changed it tougher and not as nice The chips are not the same quite greasy and don’t seem to be cooked properly The salt n pepper has changed it’s not as spicy and the chicken is now rubbery and chewy So disappointed. We were wondering if owners have changed or the chef or maybe suppliers We won’t be ordering again”

“Great food, fast service and staff are friendly too. It would be nice if the tubs were labeled / marked on multi orders as sometimes its hard to figure it out. Really could do with more squid options😭”

“Been coming here for YEARS. Food has always been great, and alison has always made sure everything ran smoothly and everything was always right, no issues happy customer, tried to make an order the other day with somebody new, i rang up for delivery, quite rare as i normally collect, but had no energy after work, i was told orders over £15 comes with free crackers great, ordered got delivered and gave driver £20, £5 tip and there was no crackers, rang up and said no crackers not included with a delivery charge, i said im a very regular repeat customer every 3-4 days. Was told would knock some money off next order, rang up 2 days later and said no discount, but a bag off free crackers was all! Forget it and my loyalty for YEARS to this place. GONE. Wont be going back nor no longer recommending this business to any of my friends or family. Customer Service - ZERO.”

Customer Review Summary
Noodles lead the praise, with one traveller calling them the best they had tasted and another enjoying the Singapore chow mein with appetisers. Reviewers also describe fast service, hot food and friendly staff, and one says requests for slight dish modifications are always met. Smaller wishes include labelled tubs on multi-item orders and more squid options. Long-time customers are split on whether standards have held. Several describe a recent decline: curry sauce that tastes different, tougher chicken in the curry, greasy and undercooked chips, and rubbery, less spicy salt and pepper chicken. One calls the chow mein boiled noodles with little meat and a watery sauce. Others cite price increases, and one reports being told a regular could no longer have delivery because of distance. The sharpest complaint comes from a customer of several years who ordered delivery expecting free crackers, received none, and was offered only a bag of crackers on a later order after asking for a discount.
