The newly launched hotpot buffet is both affordable and delicious! There’s a great variety of ingredients to choose from, and everything is fresh and flavorful. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a satisfying and value-for-money dining experience in Cambridge!

I had an amazing experience at this Chinese restaurant! The food was authentic and delicious, with rich flavors and fresh ingredients. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even better. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. Highly recommend trying their signature dishes — definitely worth a visit!

I booked a birthday dinner in the 72 restaurant for my friend to celebrate his 18th birthday. The staff was very thoughtful and played the birthday song for us, and also temporarily turned off the lights for us to enjoy the candlelight of the birthday cake! Staffs were very friendly, the main course of the dinner was delicious, the Sichuan style food was delicious, love the spicy! I think this is the best Chinese restaurant on this street and I would recommend it to my friends! 100% will come back, nice vibe!

I ordered food from Deliveroo and I have ordered from this restaurant many times before, but recently the quality has been getting worse and worse. The beef tripe was huge and the worst part is that I had diarrhea and vomiting that night. I am very sure it was because of their food because I didn't eat anything after 1pm that day until 7pm when I ate their food and started vomiting. It was very bad and now it's the third day and I still can't eat normally because of the vomiting. The stomach pain caused by the vomiting is unbearable and that will be my last order from this restaurant really disappointed

I didn’t want to make dinner, so I ordered boiled fish, golden needle fat beef and ground three delicacies to be taken away from his house. As a result, the fat beef in Day Needle Fatty Cow smells bad, the eggplant in Di San Xian is bitter, and the potatoes are sour. Truly one of the worst experiences with Chinese takeaway in Cambridge. The last time it was this bad was when I ordered it at "spring" a year ago. I will never buy from him again. The beef smells bad, the phototo is spoiled and the aubergine tasted bitter. Worst experience.

My friends and I have been ordering takeout from this store for the past four years. I placed an order for spicy chicken on Deliveroo on August 1st, but it was delivered to someone else by mistake. I went to the delivery platform to get a refund coupon. On August 2nd, I used my refund coupon to place an order for spicy chicken again. When I got it, I was surprised why there were so many more diced chickens than usual. I put the remaining pieces in the refrigerator. When I ate them the next day, the smell was even more obvious. After a few bites, I started to feel stomachache, nausea, and diarrhea. (English version): Me and my friends are used to order deliveries from this restaurant. As usual, I used deliveroo to order spicy sautéed chicken on 1 August, and turned up to get somebody else's order. I asked for a refund voucher from deliveroo . On 2 August, I used the voucher to order spicy sautéed chicken again from this restaurant. When I got the dish, I noticed that there were more chicken pieces than anytime before. The pieces were larger than usual as well. I ate some, and found that several of the chicken pieces tasted a bit weird, but I didn't think too much about it. I put the rest of the chicken into my fridge. The second day when I took it out, heated it up and ate it , the bad taste was more obvious. I've only had several bites and got stomachache, diarrhea, and felt so sick that I had to take medication. I threw this dish away, but it didn’t matter because I appealed to the takeout platform again and received a new refund coupon. I didn't eat much, and the symptoms of food poisoning weren't particularly severe. However, because something like this happened, it is difficult for us not to suspect that the merchant deliberately provided faulty food because I ordered food with a refund coupon. I am a regular customer of this restaurant. I have been ordering food from this restaurant for four years. I have ordered the spicy chicken many times and other dishes many times. I have never gotten food poisoning after putting it in the refrigerator one night and taking it out the next day. experience. How you did it, what you thought, and whether it was just a coincidence, you know in your heart. Your order was sent by mistake yourself, not by me for you. Using the refund coupon is my legitimate right as a consumer, and it is not an excuse for you to use spoiled food for targeted poisoning. If you don’t want to place my order, you can refuse to serve meals, or even permanently refuse to take my order. I don’t mind, but you have chosen the worst solution and completely overturned an old customer’s trust in your family. I threw the dish away, that's fine, I could complain and get refund from deliveroo again. I'm glad that I didn't eat much, and my food poisoning symptoms have not been too bad for now. But, it's hard not to suspect that the restaurant provided unclean or expired food because I paid with the refund voucher. I'm a regular customer of this restaurant, having ordered food from here for four years. I've ordered sautéed chicken for numerous times before and other dishes as well. Never did I have the experience of food poisoning by eating a dish which was kept in my fridge for only one night. Whether this was a mere coincidence or something else, you guys running the restaurant know better than me. It was you who sent the wrong order that day, not me. I had every right to use that voucher as a customer, and it should not be taken as an excuse to poison somebody with expired food. If you didn't like it, you could refuse to cook my dish, refuse my order, I wouldn't mind, but you guys decided to venture the worst possible solution over the trust of a loyal customer who has been visiting and ordering from you since she came to Cambridge. Considering my health and life safety, I will not order food from this restaurant again in the future, nor will I recommend my friends to come here again. I sincerely hope that your business will continue to prosper and get better and better. Considering my health and safety, I will never visit this restaurant again or order anything from here. I would not recommend my friends to do so either. I wish wholeheartedly that the business of your restaurant keeps flourishing and you earn as much money as you wish - that's the only thing you have ever had an idea about anyways.

The food was authentic Chinese food but the flavour of the food was different to what I came across few years ago it wasn’t as great as before, maybe the chef has changed and after I finished eating for some reason my mouth felt dry no matter how much water I drank, possibly they put to much MSG in the food. It was a shame that they didn’t taste as good as before.

Service was good. As for food, we had pigs ears, deep fried ribs, cauliflower hearts, and rice. The pigs ears were sliced very thick and really tough. The ribs were also really tough, bordering on inedible. The cauliflower hearts were nice. The rice had been cooked for so long that the texture was all mushy. We hardly had any of the ribs and pigs ears but packed it up to take home just in case we can salvage the dishes in any way. Also the toilets looked as though they had not been cleaned in a while.

We went to the Chinese restaurant called “72 China” at around 8 pm on 20th Aug. 2023. But unfortunately, we had to experience discrimination by the staff. We ordered a dish named “squirrel fish” but the fish was definitely not fresh at all. It had a very strong fishy taste and smell despite being deep fried and covered in strong seasoning and sauce. As a result, we told them that the fish tasted off and not fresh. The staff took away our dish and told us that it was our problem and not theirs. We were in disbelief at how they treated us after we made a complaint, and when we tried to reason with them, they refused to listen to us. They tried to talk over us and intimidate us when we told them that their fish was bad. They were unapologetic, rude and loud. They tried to intimidate us as they were 2 guys and we were 3 girls (me, my girlfriend, and my friend). They tried to scare us off by talking very loud and over us. They said all the fish tasted like this and then said it tasted bad only because it was cold. Even though we told them we had this dish before in this restaurant and we tasted it as soon as it arrived. They should have a CCTV which can prove we tried the dish as soon as it arrived. They refused any sort of negotiation and kept using different excuses until we said this could be settled by the police. We believe we were discriminated against by this restaurant, as when we checked the online reviews afterwards there were other Chinese that reported similar problems and behaviours from the staff of this restaurant. The staff are always rude to Asian customers but have a very different attitude towards non Asian customers. 2023年8月20日晚上8点左右,我们去了名为“72中国”的中餐馆。但不幸的是,我们不得不经历员工的歧视。 我们点了一个名为“松鼠鱼”的菜,但这条鱼一点也不新鲜。它有很强的鱼腥味和气味,尽管它是油炸和涂上强烈的调味料和沙司。 结果,我们告诉他们,这条鱼味道不好,不新鲜。工作人员拿走了我们的菜,告诉我们这是我们的问题,而不是他们的问题。我们不相信他们在我们投诉后如何对待我们,当我们试图与他们讲理时,他们拒绝听我们的话。 当我们告诉他们他们的鱼不好的时候,他们试图谈论我们,恐吓我们。他们毫无歉意,粗鲁而响亮。他们试图恐吓我们,因为他们是两个男人,而我们是三个女孩(我,我的女朋友,我的朋友)。他们试图把我们吓跑,大声地对我们说话。 他们说所有的鱼都是这样的,然后说它的味道很糟糕,只是因为它很冷。尽管我们告诉他们,我们以前在这家餐馆吃过这道菜,我们一到就尝了。他们应该有一个闭路电视,可以证明我们一到就尝过这道菜。 他们拒绝任何形式的谈判,并一直用不同的借口,直到我们说这件事可以由警方解决。 我们相信我们受到了这家餐厅的歧视,因为当我们检查网上评论时,还有其他中国人从这家餐厅的员工那里报告了类似的问题和行为。员工对亚洲客户总是很粗鲁,但对非亚洲客户却有着截然不同的态度。

It’s the first time for our family here but definitely not the last. We family enjoyed the food here as they served authentic Chinese. If anyone like to know what is the real Chinese food and this is the one. Have read the other comments and I would laugh someone’s low rating. I can see the staffs worked really hard because it’s a very very busy restaurant. The queue is long and people have great patience for the place they can have the home feel taste. This is the best proof and it’s enough. I can’t say this is the best Chinese restaurant but they are doing their best. You have my respect and support! Thank you to 72. China!

This is a Sichuan restaurant located in Cambridge. A very popular restaurant with a nice Chinese theme set up. The restaurant serves a wide selection of spicy Sichuan food. Their Pouched Chicken in Sichuan Spicy Sauce and the Fragrant Pot (香锅) are good. Service is reasonable but during peak hours, the waiting time may be slightly longer. Cleanliness is acceptable. Prices are reasonable. Cash and cards are accepted. There are a number of steps within the restaurant. Handicapped patrons on wheelchairs will have difficulties patronising this restaurant. 25-07+2023 ; Restaurant operating without any Covid-19 restrictions. Crowd is back to normal. Prices had inevitably increased but still competitive. Their Double Cooked Sliced Pork and Pouched Chicken in Sichuan Spicy Sauce are good. Both are recommended.

I've never had Chinese food in China, but I'm pretty sure that this is as close as you can get in Cambridge. @72 makes zero effort to adapt to the British palate, and that's what makes it great.

Great food and excellent location. The family run restaurant has a good vibe and the dishes are tasty without being greasy or heavy. Genuine pu'er tea and the best wanton soup I have had anywhere in the world. Be aware that you need to be specific to the menu. The young waitress who served my food was not fluent in writing mandarin and had to copy from the menu to communicate the orders to the kitchen staff. Therefore, be sure to indicate the exact dish you want on the menu and if there is a specific dietary requirement, make that explicit.

I was there last week and I was disappointed by the food I oredred, I am a regular customer to this restaurant for almost 6 years now but last time I visited really didn't like the foods at all and I think the owner change the chefs because we were waiting for almost an hour for our food to be ready ( normally foods took 15/20 minutes to be ready ) . We order Crispy Aromatic Duck and Vegetable Springs rolls and 2 Checken black Ben Sause and 2 rice , the foods delivered randomly and not in order at all , the Duck was looking old and taste different, the Spring onions were ok , the chicken black Ben sauce were taste different and the Egg fried rice were disgusting. I hope the owner will change the chefs or bring the previous one but if he will continue like that he will lose a lot of customers.

This is a rough and ready Chinese food joint. We come here now and again to get authentic Chinese food. Don’t expect polished service, you have to overlook the rough edges but the food is great. Try to come early, around 6- 6.30 and your fellow diners will be mainly Asian- a good sign that the food is the real deal. Dish highlights are the salt and pepper squid, spinach in peanuts and vinegar and the fish in boiling oil with Szechuan pepper and chilli.

Terrible service all round Unapologetic poor service, clearly uninterested in whether our meal was going ok. Long wait for any food, then our rice and half of our main courses arrived with our starters so that our food was cold by the time we were eating it. When we finished, cold food and dishes left on table, no attempt to clear. No interest in whether we wanted anything extra, any additional drinks etc. To top it all, had the cheek to add a service charge to already steep prices.

Ate here as part of an eight person group, at the recommendation of a member of the group who originates from Wuhan that considered this restaurant to be highly regarded by the Chinese community for authentic Chinese dishes. I had also heard great recommendations previously. To me, alarm bells were ringing when we were shown into the basement to be seated in a small room with a round table, adjacent to their toilets, stock room and cleaning cupboards. Service was particularly dire, it was clear nobody gave a hoot about the actual experience of the customer, but friends assured me that often, the worse a service is, the greater the restaurant and that uncaring, blunt and boring service is instilled into the culture. The food, however, was magnificent (when it did finally arrive). It had taken a while for them to prepare but each person did order a dish with another added to the equation so there was much for the restaurant to cope with, and the food was incredible. There was a mixture of excessively spicy dishes and delectable sweet and sour dishes with each cooked to tasty perfection, whether it was the battered/fried sweet and sour fish, or the simplistic veggies, it was all delicious and has redeemed what otherwise appears to be a somewhat rundown and dismissive restaurant when it comes to their upkeep, cleanliness and their customer care.

太无语了,信心满满去72栈吃饭,点好菜等了四十多分钟菜也不上。问老板娘什么情况,老板娘头也不会地敷衍“马上”。结果又等了半个小时,问另外一个服务员姐姐什么时候上菜,对方告诉我们至少再等半个小时。如果菜上的很慢可以提前告知吗?至少可以真诚的告诉我们实际情况吗?再也不来了,太恶心了!饿到胃疼,好痛苦。

Wait time for our order was insanely long. Who the hell on earth cooks a spicy hot pot for an entire hour?

After 40 minutes of waiting we finically have received dishes, which do not look even close to the pictures in the menu. The 14 pounds “duck” dish looked like some leftovers of leftovers and did not have more than 70 grams of duck. I strongly discourage you to go here.

真的难吃到爆炸,吃完肚子就不舒服,还硬收服务费,点完菜五分钟就上了,估计也就是预制菜,冷不冷热不热的,服务态度还差。就这还明星餐厅,我真的想笑。

Amazing sichuan food, much better than sichuan / hunan food in Hong Kong of the same price level. Service is good. There are non-spicy dishes for children or friends that couldn't take even a bit of spicy food. The quality of the non-spicy dishes are also quite well. Unlike many sichuan restaurant in Hong Kong and the mainland China which simply mixing chilli and meat / vegetable that are not fresh with a lot of MSG, their spicy dishes are fresh that you could tell the taste of the ingredients. The spiciness of a decent sichuan food should not be too strong and overwhelm the original flavours of meat / vegetable. I recommend: cold dish: Fuqi feipian(Sliced Beef and Ox Tongue in Chilli Sauce). The sauce and the sliced bamboo are so great. Hot dish: Spicy roasted fish in pickled pepper style.

Very busy place for lunch and I think they are also very busy for deliveries. Great service and excellent host and we thoroughly enjoyed everything. I think this is very close to like home cooked Chinese food. Very good dumplings and amazing black bean chicken. Soup was very authentic Chinese flavour. Great place for Chinese.

Lovely food. Tried the Mapo Tofu and some Szechuan dishes which were very nice. The spicy and the peppery ones were different and complementary. They also accommodated our special requests.

So this is a VERY good Chinese restaurant. Having lived in Asia I know. In fact for what it represents, it is the best authentic restaurant in Cambridge that I've been to. Service quick, smooth & attentive. Large varied, if not exciting Chinese menu, being particularly strong in Sichuan (spicy) food. Rice quantities however poor I thought (Probably because we weren't Chinese) This was not good enough. Restrooms poor. But survivalable. I recommend this restaurant.

Flank beef was very good but the SnS Ribs wasn't that good felt and tasted if the ribs were reheated and not fresh, portion wise it was small for the price of £40+.

I tried mapo tofu, and beef noodles in spicy broth. Great location at the downing street, so I drop by for lunch. I really like the welcoming vibes of the staff. When I took a vegan friend to the restaurant, they accommodated our request and provided vegetarian version of mabpo tofu. It's not super cheap (12 pound per dish including service charge) but affordable. I like it

Food is decent but I have to mention that it is ridiculous that they only take orders via one application and not even by a phone call. Would have been fine if this application wasnt all in Chinese. There is no way that a non-Chinese speaker can navigate through this app. How is this a thing? Update 25/05. Tried to order via Deliveroo. Despite it being said that we could order it, we got a cancellation 10 minutes later. Very unprofessional.

(Used to be) the top choice in Cambridge for spicy Chinese food. Compulsory 10% service charge, waived as a student discount. Docked a star off for inconsistent quality and subpar service

The portions are adequate and the food was hot and tasty.Slightly expensive. 4 small bowls of egg fried rice, 1x chicken sweet and sour, 1x beef and noodles, 1x prawn sweet and sour, 1x prawn crackers and jasmine tea for £78. Service good, atmosphere good and not a scrap left!

Why is this not called Golden Dragon - it took a lot of finding on Tripadvisor? Anyway - we had a delivery to the local Travelodge and it arrived on time and the guy was helpful in finding us. We had two "specials" and they were tasty - all good.

Very poor service, our family never come back here again. The attitude of the waistress is so bad, we didnt get the discount for paying cash which we normally get that before. Packing for food take away is costing money which is very abnormal conpare to other restaurants…. I have been regular customer but not from now any more.

The food is hit and miss. We visited last week and the food was good so decided to go again. This time one of the two mains was inedible, absolutely dire. The place is mostly empty.
