57 Orient Takeaway in Sefton

AVOID!! Ordered tonight through Southport eats... After waiting 20 mins after the requested delivery time, we rang 4 times to ask when the delivery was due after it being almost an hour late, each time we were told the driver had left but couldn't be told how long ago...it eventually arrived- to be told by the driver he'd only left Max 10 mins ago... The food...oh my goodness ... It was warm , that's the only description I can say because it wasn't edible! I have to say in all my 50+ years it's the worst food of any description I've ever experienced, the noodle dish smelled of horse manure, the rice dish resembled a congieled mush, the chips,, seriously how can a chippy get chips wrong,?!? The poor young lady who took each of my calls was very apologetic because the "manager" was too busy to face a complaint It was clear they were making her lie. Avoid!!

ordered food wrong order then i called to sort it our and the bill came to more than what I ordered. unbelievable and the cheek of it threw the order back. food was poor also don't go here

Disgusting and vile. Chips were had to be microwaved and the gravy was like tar. Has to be one of the worse chip shops in Southport

We miss 57 Orient!!!!! Please come back!!!! Salt & Pepper Aubergene l, honey chips,mushroom rice and curry sauce is the best combo!

I disliked my meal so much I have gone through the effort to make and account I ordered salt and pepper chips might as well of ordered normal chips with a side of onion .The only part I liked about my meal was the bbq sauce that came on the side. Safe to say I won’t be returning even if it’s my last choice I would rather starve

Pink chicken, frozen cold oven chips. Grotesque and do not order from this place under any circumstances

duck was cremated looked like road kill, cucumber looks like its been sitting in the fridge for a couple of weeks, the pancakes well looks like the delivery driver has been sat on them and there's nothing special about the special fried rice, in fact its quite gross when speaking to the manager he couldn't see a problem never again

Just had the best takeaway Chinese. Booking was easy. Arrived very quickly. Lovely delivery girl. Food was plentiful, very hot and so tasty. Would recommend x

We have been using 57 Orient for at least ten years now and the food is always fantastic. The prawn balls are to die for as are the ribs and authentic thai curries. We ate from there last night and it was absolutely delicious.

I have no idea what you have to do to a portion of chips to get them like that, the only thing I can think is that the pre-cook them and then reheat them, it was really the worst I've ever had. the thai style crispy pork was pretty rubbish too, just like eating pork in jam. charged me a £5 delivery fee and took over 1hr20mins to get to me, ended up leaving it all and having toast.

Food never turned up. The guy lied to us several times on the phone and told us that the driver was “on his way”.. Nearly 3 hours later we called again and he admitted that they hadn’t even started the order yet.. Hopefully there’s new management soon because I really used to love this place

Appalling 6 months ago I had to go and collect my just eat order due to a driver not turning up and they refused to refund me my delivery charge and tonight they left off my prawn crackers that I had paid for and said they would drop them off in 10 mins then 40 mins later they said they were too busy and would drop off on way home and hung up, totally unacceptable!!!

This place used to be excellent.. Now even my dog refused to eat my takeaway.. Time for new management as this place has lost its way.. Why can't I rate it ZERO. All the good comments are from ages ago..

Ordered rice and spicy beef , when it got delivered there was only rice and no beef when rang the takeaway got told they will sort it. It's been 30 min already and no beef arrived yet , but the rice is cold now 🤝👌👌👌👌 If I wanted just rice I would boil some myself.

A menu was posted through our letterbox in Ainsdale from 57 Orient. We were so pleased when we read there was home delivery-free within 2 mile radius & £1.50 charge over 2 miles. Obviously over 2 miles but the menu looked so good that we didn't have a problem paying for delivery & didn't mind waiting. Ordered through Just Eat who accepted order but later informed us that 57 Orient were unable to provide our order as they were too busy! Phoned 57 Orient to complain. Completely disinterested & said it was too far & they confirmed they were too busy. Pity they put leaflets through doors in Ainsdale in the first place if it's too far away from Birkdale. Suggest that this take away/home delivery will not remain "too busy" if this attitude persists.

Had a couple of meals from here last year. Have been looking forward to our next break in this neck if the woods for more. Thai dishes are absolutely amazing!

Portion sizes are fantastic and the quality is amazing. What a fabulous Chinese meal we had. 2nd visit and we will definitely be returning!!!! Thankyou

Really pleased. Ordered a honey and lemon chicken with rice and sausages and chips.Placed the order through deliveroo and was quoted 50mins wait which was ok for us. Anyway just 25mins a lovely driver arrived with our order really nice and delivered our food and told us enjoy which we did. We even put a note on the order no salt and was really nice.

We ordered at work three dishes, sweet and sour chicken was great as was the veg and fish dish. It was ruined by some terrible chips. What a let down.

Who would have thought that vegetarian food would give a restaurant four stars, when others have rated it as bad!?! My husband and I thought that we’d never have a Chinese take away, ever, never in a million years. He is in love with the tofu options and I LOVE the vegetarian duck in pancake! I would avoid the Singapore noddles, as they taste like they have been drowned in salt. There are so many options for vegetarians and my husband and I, love the majority of them. If you do order over £30 of food, don’t bother buy spring rolls and samosas as they give you them for free.

Unbelievably long wait food was barely edible very salty poor meal. No point wasting your time or money here.

I have never ever been served frozen chips in a chippy except for here! The curry sauce was so salty we couldn't eat it. The whole experience was not good at all.

Ordered food and told 40min for delivery after 1hr 20 still no food called them to be told 5 mins after 2hrs I phoned again only to be told food still not out for delivery at this point I cancelled food

A portion of chips for £1.80 .you would expect some good.....iam afraid not looked and tasted like frozen oven chips .sorry will not be going back .

We love the food but always have to wait hours for delivery. Even if you call they lie about how long it will be. 2 hours is not unusual. They are always "sorry but busy"even if you call to see where yours is.

Omg do not use this takeaway, two hour 10 minute wait for food to be delivered, whilst been told three times when I rang that the food was 'just around the corner', then only a 1/3 of my order turned up, asked for refund which was agreed on the phone with a very unhelpful man who worked there, he told his delivery driver to give us a refund of 3 quid (order was nearly 30 quid) delivery drive then starts shouting and swearing at my doorstep when giving me the pathetic refund, I then receive a phone call off the man at the takeaway threatening me and telling me thing we're going to get very bad for me! Absolute joke of a takeaway DO NOT USE!!!!!!!!!

Ordered food and waited over 1 hour and a half!

Great choice for vegetarians....I like the special tofu with Thai sweet basil contains mushrooms chili onions.....particularly like their veggie hot and sore soup

This has become our favourite Chinese take away that delivers to your door. Delicious food and they use less salt without losing taste. They recently sent an incorrect order that was delivered to our house and rectified within 5 minutes of us calling which was excellent. They make great prawn toast and main meals have always been lush!

Put an order in for a simple meal for two. Rice and soup! Waited over an hour an half before ringing to see what happened. No answer. Rang another 4 times before eventually getting through.

Always gorgeous, never disappointed, plenty of choice , easy to order for collection or delivery, good size portions. Would highly recommend
