Aroma in Barking and Dagenham

One of the best chinese in Dagenham , fresh, tasty everything was delicious.

If I could give this restaurant a minus, I would. Tasteless is an understatement. Boiled rice disguised as egg fried. Crispy chilli beef cooked in tomato ketchup. Seen and tasted more flavour on a Kleenex tissue than the chicken chow mien.

Great store, as it was our first time ordering, they gave us a free portion of salt and pepper chicken. Their service is great and the woman on the phone is always very polite and kind. Food is always to standards and out of all the Chinese takeaways I’ve had this has to be top.

Customer service was 10/10, the lady who served me was really nice. Encouraged me to try out something new and I didn’t regret. Would defo recommend!!!

I used to order from here a lot, however when I got my order today I was more than disappointed. Firstly, I didn’t receive hoisin sauce to go with my duck, and when I called to tell them they insisted “they packed it themselves and know it was in my bag” making me believe I was going crazy even with the order and emptied bags in front of me and wouldn’t send any back out for me. The egg fried rice tastes a lot like white boiled rice with hardly any egg in it, and the chow mein is also very tasteless even with sauce mixed in. On top of all of this, I continued to eat my chicken balls, where I discovered the chicken was pink and also not very appetising to look at (I will post pic). I must mention I am also 33 weeks pregnant so am not impressed at all. Won’t be ordering again.

Absolutely beautiful first time ordering definitely my new go to Salt n chilli chips and salt n chilli chicken was the best I've ever tasted

Just had a delivery from here for the first time and it was delicious, would definitely recommend thank you! Salt and chilli chips are amazing and the curry sauce too. Plate smashing good!

It was our first time having a take away delivered from Aroma, it was delivered on time and was so hot and so fresh. The ingredients were fresh and superbly cooked, it's the best Chinese take away we have ever eaten. Thank you

Got a delivery and the food was delicious, only time I've ever cooled Singapore chow mien down with curry sauce, but it worked 😋

My first time getting a takeaway from here my neighbour told me it was the best Chinese she has had and she was not wrong stopped getting Chinese because the last one was horrible. So this was mine and my hubbys first one in 5 years can’t wait to order again also delivery man was very nice and polite

Had on a recommendation from a colleague of my wife. Was going off Chinese food but found the food was enjoyable it wasquick and professional delivery. And person on other end of phone was very polite

Been wanting to try this place for a while, but always stayed with my regular, but tonight i went for it and omg am i glad i did, the regular one isnt getting used again lol everything was so tasty, clean n fresh, my son went in and ordered it came to wait in the car and the lady came out to the car save us going back in we even chatted, lovely friendly lady, reminded me of 30+years ago when shopkeepers had time to chat etc really wonderful chinese, not a bad thing to say about it

Best Chinese takeway in East London. The interior is clean and inviting and the food is excellent. They have plenty of options including great vegan options and warm and friendly staff. Fully recommended.

Ordered over the phone and spoke to Leanne (the manager). Really friendly and polite and made my first time ordering really welcoming. The food came piping hot and tasted great! My new favourite Chinese!

The food is nasty and plain. There was no flavour to the chow mein and the noodles were tough and chewy. The staff are so rude. We called back and they were so rude. The delivery time also took so long however they did mention they had a few orders before us.

We were looking for a new chinese takeaway as we have moved here recently and this has the best reviews, so we took a risk, and i can say it payed off not only was the food reasonable priced the portions were decent and it was delicious. If you live in the area i would highly recommend this takeaway you wont be disappointed and the staff are friendly and helpful when ordering.

Have used Aroma since it opened, they do the best Singapore fried rice and the duck curry has enough duck for 2 people,the delivery has always been 1st class,Neve had a bad meal from them.

Proper nice food , delivered hot and very tasty ! Lady who answered the phone was very pleasant and friendly

It was fabulous the food was amazing and overall I enjoyed everything would recommend to a friend definitely

Excellent take away food, absolutly trhe best chines in my opinion around. Had takeaway many times & never been disappointed Also as im a veggie they have so many options which is brillant, really tasty!

Omg my food was the best this will now be our only Chinese shop. The service was lovely and friendly the delivery man was nice my food was amazing look forward to ordering again

I ordered special Singapore vermicelli rice noodles and Special chow men. I was very disappointed. Worse Chinese food I ever had. Delivery time was ok. I am never going to order from aroma. I am sorry to say that your food quality is 1/10.

Food was extremely cold and manager refused to give a refund. Extremely rude and never listened just kept making excuses.

Had a fab takeaway from Aroma last night. Had Singapore style noodles, squid, salt and pepper chicken wings and mixed starter. All was wonderful. Will order again.

Over an hour and still nothing. Won’t bother wasting my time ordering from here again.

Used to use this take away regular.last few times been awful, asked if they changed chef was assured no.gave them the benefit of the doubt, just paid for another take away it was absolutely awful.wont be using them again.They offerd a credit for next time, but why would you go there again if its not edable tasteless food and chips must have been recooked several times. No thank you

Great food.Authentic Chinese. Really tasty. 👏👏👏👏

Very nice and clean environment, chef and staff is so lovely, the gave us free chicken satay while we wait. Very nice food as well. Will recommend! Will come here again.

Excellent food and wonderful service. The food never disappoints and is the best Chinese takeaway in the area. The only thing to watch out for is that the delivery times can be extremely long. So, plan ahead if you want to order given it a good 1 hour for deliveries.

Always fresh and delicious. Excellent prices too.

We regularly order from Aroma and always find the customer service especially from Leanne to be first class. Great selection of dishes all come piping hot to your door. Treat yourself and support Leanne and all the team

Love this place well worth the wait as delivery can be long sometimes but it just goes to show how nice it is

We only came here as our usual Chinese is shut, however we will be only coming to you now, the rice is so fresh everything in our order was 5 ⭐. Couldn't fault anything from our order.

Hands down the best Chinese in Dagenham. Always freshly cooked, friendly staff and reasonably priced. My husband usually picks it up as delivery times are long. They are always busy though, which is a testimony to how good their food is.

Excellent customer service food always cooked to order piping hot and delicious best Chinese takeaway in barking/dagenham (in my opinion)

I won’t give even one star, three show main came completely dry no sauce just noodles and 3 peaces of king prawns, so pure after waiting 2 hours so unhappy 🙁

Best Chinese in Dagenham. Wouldn’t even bother going elsewhere. Food is always lovely and staff are really friendly.

The best chinese i have had in a long time.Food nice and tasty and hot.Plenty of it too.Wouldnt go to any other chinese now after ordering from here for the first time the other night..Family go there too now and they love it.

Ordered a few times and tbh, always fresh, piping hot, never disappointed! Wish they could take card payments though!

The best Chinese ever.I had it for the first time last night.And 100% this is where I will be buying it from from now on..I had chicken chow mein and had loads of chicken in..Special fried rice plenty of meat.Prawn balls chips and curry sauce..All delicious and nice and hot..100% recommend this place..

Superb food very friendly staff.

Gorgeous Chinese food, best ever! Thought Id try this Chinese. Followed the reviews and goodness, the food arrived so quick, piping hot, so fresh, by far the best Chinese!! Will definitely be ordering from here again. Loraine, Dagenham

great customer service but the taste was just not for me. i had chicken in ginger sauce the ginger is still almost raw. also had beef in black bean sauce and sauce was too thick for me.

While in Dagenham, I am very careful about what I eat outside. I Googled the best Chinese in the Dagenham area and I came across this beautiful takeaway restaurant. I love the food and the lady at the counter is super nice and offered my free salt & pepper chicken. When next I visit, they will be my plug.

Travel here from East Ham as not found quality of good Chinese food in my area. Fresh good tasty food, friendly staff. 1 negative salt n pepper wings werent great the one time I got them

Brilliant take out, best Chinese takeout for miles around

First time using this restraunt from the moment we walked in we was greeted by the owner what a lovely lady the shop is very clean including the kitchen and the food was amazing if your ever the area I strongly suggest this shop.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

best in the area, looks very clean and very friendly owners makes a change from some of the grumpy staff you get in some Chinese take a ways.

On the odd occasion we have a Chinese we go here, food usually good, lots of flavour and quality, not too keen on price increase this year though. Would recommend.

I searched on line and ordered over the phone.Great Customer service,paid attention well to order and when collecting my orders everything was as ordered. There food is fresh and tasty. Thank you L.

Pancakes rolls was very greasy never use to be.

Great service and food is always very good

Best food ever!!!!!Best service

Lady at counter is fantastic - warm and polite service plus she remembered my order preferences from my last visit! I ordered in-person, rather than online, so waited outside - food was quick, no more than ten minutes. Food is delicious.

Amazing food, big portions, large selection to choose from, also a great selection of vegetarian options. Tried both & was very impressed. Will be definitely going back again to try some more dishes from this menu👍👍

Delicious fresh and good portions

The food is always delivered hot and is of good quality, (not swimming in oil like some) Yes the delivery can take a while, but more often than not is delivered on time. Would recommend

Quick service and the food was ready to takeaway in less than 10 minutes.

Customer care second to none. Great food, fresh, vibrant and amazing taste. Exceptional value for money. Always helpfull, clean social distancing in place, PLEASE ABIDE BY THE RULES AND WEAR YOUR FACE MASK REMBER FACE HANDS SPACE

Great Customer Service All Round. Lovely Place

Ordered a delivery at 6:00 on a Saturday evening, to be told delivery is an hour and a half. Ok I'll put up with that. Then called at 7:45 to be told your order is being cooked next I drove down there at 8:00 and picked my food up and no I refused to pay the full price. Ignore their delivery times as they have not got a clue. Yes the food is nice but the service is absolutely shocking. DO NOT ORDER A DELIVERY

I ordered at 18:02 and still awaiting food at 19:57. I would not recommend this restaurant as I have a 6 year old who is already half he late for bed and still hasn’t eaten yet!

Was trying for the first time. Ordered and was told 45mins to an hour. Phoned after 1:15mins to be told minimum wait was 2hrs. Awful customer service and who waits a minimum of two hours for a takeaway, just on customer service will not try again

We had the best Chinese food, very fast and fresh. Whilst waiting got given a little taste of another dish, that we will definitely be ordering next time.

The best food I have ever had. Never been disappointed all was hot and on time

Best Chinese around food is amazing and always service with a smile. I've had this twice but they definitely have a customer for life. The wait for delivery can be long but then that goes to show how good the food is. They're are crazy busy but worth the wait. And last thing I've never tasted curry sauce like that its beautiful

Food good staff great . Shop clean

First time ordering from here, being new to the area we tried it tonight and it was amazing! The manager was really polite and helpful, and also sent a free gift! Will defo be eating from here again! 😁

Dave liked the Chow Mein and I liked the toast of prawns and the quack

Best Chinese shop in Dagenham! So clean. nice food. recommend going there. polite staff

Best Chinese takeaway in Dagenham and probably further!! Absolutely gorgeous food never disappoints 😊👍👍

Without a doubt one of the finest vegan meals I have ever had, simply outstanding and highly recommended

The best vegan Chinese options in the area, if you are vegan you must try

Love it! Amazing food! Quick delivery (usually even quicker that they say), nice portions and great customer service. Only thing they should change is the "cash only"...

Food tastes & looks so fresh. Quick delivery piping hot. Staff sound so friendly. Tried two deliveries and both times they have been spot on. Egg fried rice is really fresh not just covered in soy sauce and other things. Portions are at a “standard regular size” so order an extra fav if you’re a big eater like me. :) prawn on baguette is also a nice shout! Spot on!! :D

One of the best Chinese if not the best Chinese takeaways I've ever had. As soon as you step in you notice how clean and bright the place is and the owner is so friendly and accomadating. A big thing that sets it apart for me is the vegan/vegetarian options they do. The meat alternatives taste amazing and very much like the real thing. Despite havingg other Chinese takeaways closer to me I always go to Aroma and recommend anyone reading this to do the same.

GREAT CHINESE! Was abit hesitant to move from my regular place but their prices have been creeping up and I wanted one dish so I tried Aroma and I have to say I am really pleased the food was tasty hot and not oily like some places ! Will be my new favourite ! Very reasonable prices and super clean !

Awesome food, always arrives on time & piping hot! Great customer service over the phone or when collecting food from the restaurant. My family's go to Chinese!

Best Chinese in Dagenham.Pancake rolls are lovely,salted ribs are nice too.There to many nice dishes they do to mention so you need to try for yourself

The food was amazing. Worth every star. Well recommend it.

always amazing the food is to die for always helpful and always on time couldnt say any more better then that

Good is grate and the staff are really nice. Love the place and I use it at least once a month.

I had an extraordinary experience at this restaurant. We enjoyed the excellent vibes and the food. The staff are very amiable. I’m content we eventually decided to visit this place.

Customer service was so bad didn’t even get a chance to order any food. Came in during one evening. They were clearly busy with deliveries. When it was my turn to order she stopped me twice to take phone calls from OTHER customers. 1st time I was like alright maybe it’s just their policy, came back I didn’t even get to finish what I was saying and then she cut me off and took ANOTHER phone call. It’s just manners and they’re free. Will never give my money to this place. Ever. Place down the road gives way better service for fraction of the price.

Ordered from here a fair amount of times. Food always good and never had a bad experience. One of my favourites in Dagenham.

Fantastic food and service to match. Very friendly also. Can’t rate it high enough.

Been eating here a long time and the food is always prepared so well and within good time. Lovely friendly staff and very delicious food. Aroma has the tastiest Chinese food in the area and they can't be beaten on price either. Definitely recommend eating here.

Never ever again. We had 5 meals and none of them fresh. Squids and chicken wings are unbeatable at ALL. Love a Chinese food but not from here.

Absolutely enjoyed my Chinese never fail to impress us we loved it. Every time we order gets better and better thank you so much

Been here quite a few times and never had a bad meal, I eat a lot of Indian food so I'm quite particular when it comes to leaving reviews. You will enjoy your food if you eat here and the staff are very friendly

First time after the refurbishment Eating area seems much more cleaner and brighter the new chairs are also better and comfortable the food not so better plenty of choices not value for money I would rather of gone to Nando’s or a proper Chinese resturant not sure I will visit again Sorry guys not my thing

Brought it had a 30 minute walk home and got it home hot and taste of food superb now the only place I order from

Great food at an affordable price. All the staff are very friendly and have excellent customer service skills.

Clean place and friendly staff. The food needed a bit of a kick

Very nice food and staff very helpful.

Quick delivery, Excellent service. Food arrived piping hot, Can taste a massive difference in the food compared to other Chinese shops, tastes so fresh! Defiantly will order again from here doubt I will go anywhere else now. Highly recommend & hope the business succeeds as be disappointed if it ever closed now..

Delicious food, very pleasant staffs. The lady at the counter in particular, she is always helpful.

My husband Don and I absolutely love this takeaway. We have been to a lot of Chinese takeaways in Barking and Dagenham and Ilford and hands down for a takeaway this is the best. We are extremely particular about the places we eat and we would rate Aroma 5 stars for cleanliness, excellent customer service and excellent quality of food.

This is my first time in the shop and the staff are so friendly, they have me a free sample to try and it was absolutely amazing. They also gave me free prawn crackers.

Food absolutely lovely , staff polite, delivery prompt. Definatly one of the family favourites.
