  “We had a wonderful meal at China Kitchen 1423 in Windsor. Every dish we ordered was delicious, and we finished everything! The grilled fish was fresh, tender, and full of flavour with a rich, perfectly balanced spicy sauce. The dry pot prawns were equally impressive—fresh, juicy, and packed with fragrant spices. The garlic pork belly was another standout, with thin, tender slices and a delicious garlic sauce that was both savoury and refreshing. The portions were generous, the ingredients were fresh, and you could really taste the authenticity in every dish. The staff were friendly, and the service was attentive throughout our visit. If you’re looking for authentic Chinese food in Windsor, I highly recommend China Kitchen 1423. We’ll definitely be back!!! 10/10!!!”

  “Absolute gem right near Windsor Castle! The location is unbelievably convenient if you're visiting the castle and looking for an incredible lunch or dinner spot. ​We tried authentic Sichuan dishes, including the fish, soup, and the king prawn with salted egg, and every single dish was packed with amazing flavor. The authenticity and quality of the Sichuan spice really blew us away. ​If you are spending the day exploring Windsor, you have to stop by here. Highly recommended!”

  “My family and I spotted this Chinese food place while waiting in line to enter Windsor Castle. We immediately knew we had to come back for dinner. The building has an amazing history it is the oldest building in Windsor besides the castle of course. We were able to sit outdoors and it was such a beautiful evening. The food was delicious, the customers service was incredible. The staff gave us a tour to the upper floor and told us about the history of the building. All in all, we all had a wonderful experience and customer service was outstanding! Thank you, 1423 Chinese Restaurant.”

  “Overall, a decent and edible meal. Stop in because I didn't want fish & chips or an afternoon tea, or fast food. Ordered the prawn chips, the crispy duck and egg fried rice. The duck pancakes were tasty. The prawn chips weren't very tasty and either egg fried rice was simply boiled rice with scramble egg and peas. Customer service was good and the atmosphere was nice. I did enjoy my dining experience because of the duck. Prices were a bit expensive, but I found something within my budget.”

  “Gutted this place didn't live up to expectations. Vegan options all taste the same. Same sauce used for everything. It's far too sweet, couldnt finish any of the dishes. £6.95 for vegan fried rice which was literally a bowl of plain rice and peas. 🙄 Great they offer vegan options, however, such a shame they are packed with sugar and not much flavour. Previous reviews show extensive vegan menu, came May 2026 and this was only option available.”

  “It was nice to see vegan options in the menu, we ordered, a vegan fried rice ( which was rice with peas, not even spring onion or any of other veggies), Capital Vegan Rib ( the ribs texture was really nice, the sauce was so sweet though) , Crispy Shredded Chilli Vegan Beef ( again nothing chilly about this dish, the crispy beef was good the sauce again was so sweet) and finally the Fish fragrant Aubergine, they used the same sweet sauce as the former two dishes and added some garlic and sea spices. All in all, we left the place and felt like eating no more sugar for the rest of the week. The chef could have been creative, especially when they have such nice mock meat options, the same base of sweet sauce in all the dishes is not how you treat your customers.”

  “The best restaurant I've ever visited in the UK. And Im a foodie who was born and raised here. The cute tables on this cobble street caught my eye when walking the high street looking for a restaurant with space for 2 on a Saturday evening. After no luck in multiple restaurants my husband and i decided to see what this place was. The lovely waiter came out to greet us and pointed out that this is the second oldest building in windsor. Only then did i realise the quaint exterior and interior. The menu is the best we've ever come across in a Chinese restaurant and the prices were so worth the generous portions. We had the cloud ear mushrooms, scallops and ginger and spring onion lobster with noodle base. Never had seafood like this. The lobster was full of meat and the noodles were fried so they were crunchy and flavourful, then put in the sauce under the lobster. So many noodles we had to take some home! There's a whole floor upstairs too and im so glad we got to experience this place. If you visit windsor, check this place out for an authentic experience. ill definitely come back and recommend to my friends. There's also a vegan menu.”

  “I visited with a friend and we ordered the free-range egg fried rice to start, which we both enjoyed. For my main, I had the lemon chicken, but unfortunately it wasn’t to my taste. It felt quite fatty, and the sauce had a flavour that I found unpleasant. My friend ordered the fish aubergine, which also didn’t meet expectations. The texture was quite soft and mushy, whereas we had been expecting something a bit crispier. When I shared this feedback with the staff, I was told that this is how the dishes are typically prepared. However, I would have appreciated a bit more effort to address our concerns, such as offering an alternative or checking how they could improve our experience. Overall, while the starter was good, we left feeling disappointed and won’t come back.”

  “I came to this restaurant based on online recommendations, but honestly, it was very disappointing. First of all, the pricing feels seriously inflated. The fish dish was over £30, which is roughly double what you’d normally expect at similar restaurants. I assumed there must be something that set it apart—better quality or exceptional taste—but that wasn’t the case. The food was just average, and the portion size wasn’t anything special either. Secondly, one of our dishes was incorrect, and the staff didn’t even notice until we pointed it out ourselves. It felt like most of the servers weren’t really aware of what was going on. Finally—and most shockingly—for a restaurant at this price point, we actually found a piece of metal scouring pad in one of the dishes. That’s completely unacceptable. We definitely won’t be coming back, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to any of my friends.”

  “Absolutely delicious! The boiled fish was incredible, the dry-fried beef chow fun was spot on, and the mouth-watering chicken was simply top-notch. Will definitely come back again — highly recommended!”
