Aroma Chinese Takeaway in Ipswich

Me and the mrs tried these on Saturday night lovely service food was super flavourful arrived hot good portion sizes friendly staff. Will certainly be ordering from again.

Getting spam calls from them. Don't trust this business they are scammers

My wife and I asked for what we required and received the opposite… meal not enjoyed as allergies are important… will never go there again

Really good Chinese at a really good price! My favourite is the chicken chow mein and hot and sour soup!

The food arrived 2 hours later The taste of ribs was not what we ordered

One of the only Ippy Chinese Takeaway to serve crispy lamb and it’s lovely. Always friendly and nice delivery people too.

I had the Chao mein duck, and honestly it's impressive how they still make money with the size of the portions, there is so much duck.. I wasn't sure what to add as a starter and was offered the meat balls, they are deep fried big pieces of chicken breast in very fluffy dough, and they aren't oily at all, comes with a soy sauce deep. They are phenomenal, would recommend highly . No photos sorry I ate it all.

Got salt & pepper ribs and they were dry & the chips were cold too

We have been using this place for years as we voted it the best Chinese takeaway in Ipswich. However, after the last delivery we received we won't be. We understand prices have increased massively within the food industry and we don't mind paying extra to reflect this but to reduce portions and most importantly reduce the quality of the produce you send out is completely unacceptable, therefore we won't be ordering from you guys again until you rethink your target market. This is such a shame as we really enjoyed ordering from you.

First and last time maybe a bad day for them my chicken in balls were dry chips hard seemed heated up really disappointed on the up side was ready when arranged

Tasty food 😋 The staff were helpful and happy to make sure my takeaway was fully vegan 💚

Great food and consistent quality.

Lovely food, hot and tasty Ordered in shop and not long to wait Picture Beef Chop Suey With vegetable spring rolls

Quite busy Great food and large portions will be back if come to the area again.

Go-to Chinese takeaway for years, never had a bad order

Not the best Chinese takeaway I've had in Ipswich!

The best Chinese takeaway in town

Very dry massively salty, I was up all night having to rehydrate I could not believe how salty it was, the food was average to poor only plus was the big portion sizes, I assume that the good reviews come from people who prefer mass over quality, took ages to arrive definitely wouldn’t use again.

Never ever answer the phone. Been trying for an hour now. Customer lost!

Order took 20 mins less than they said, busy Friday night so well impressed to find everything piping hot, satay prawns were stunning only ever had chicken before, beef chow mein, lemon chicken and special fried rice….superb, really enjoyed it. Take away, home delivery only.

This is king prawn special fried rice and there is absolutely nothing what so ever special about it! Very disappointed.. I read such great reviews to receive a tasteless disappointment.

Great food, generous portions!!

Not impressed at all, our order was completely messed up after waiting over an hour after being told 30 minutes. The man then said he will re send our order for them to only send half of it😡 nearly two hours later and still not got the correct food!!!! The man then just hung up on me! Really not happy with this.

Spending a few days in Ipswich, staying in a premier inn. Decided against eating in the Beefeater, so hunted for recommendations for a good take-away. Read the reviews and decided to take a chance. We walked to Aroma to work up an appetite. The staff were lovely and the food was some of the best Chinese food my husband and I had ever eaten. Their portions are generous, because we spent over £20, we were given veg spring rolls, samosas and prawn crackers for free (this is a customer deal for everyone). Can’t recommend this enough. Will be returning when I’m next in the area.

Favourite Chinese in Ipswich - never fails to deliver hot, fresh & very tasty food with no grease or fatty bits on/in the meat and it's so cheap for the volume of food you receive & free extras. Their lamb pancakes are the best we've found in Ipswich - our go to Chinese every time. We have tried nearly every one in Ipswich and none of them come close to Aroma, for us.

Great tasting food. Fast delivery and very polite staff. The food is always hot and it tastes great once delivered. Will be back

Food is OK. Not amazing though.

First time food was excellent but last time chow mein was disgusting had a wierd smell so was thrown out , shame as portion size is good

One of the best take aways in Ipswich. Always good food and plenty of it at good price.

Had a takeaway from here, food was fine and free prawn cracker.. winner as travelling for work..

All good will be using them all the time from now on, I've had few things off menu's and no complaints so far.

Food was luke warm 3/4 of it went into the bin full of fat

First time ive ordered from Aroma very very satisfied good hot food and quick delivery. Will definitely be using Aroma in the future.

Busy but worth the wait. Always fantastic and hot even on delivery

Lovely food one of best in Ipswich. Also large dishes

Nice food and generous portions.

Food is always tasty and exceptional value for money. Always very busy but never waited more than 20 minutes on a walk in. I think they could make the shop more attractive but it's the food that counts.

Great food and really friendly service, would highly recommend.

Great food, great personal service, and very fast delivery. Highly recommended.

Good food and very well priced - never disappointed

Tried this for the first time today as we've recently moved to this area. Polite and quick service and generous portions. Prawn crackers, samosas and spring rolls added free. All delicious, pleased to find this place nearby. Thanks.

the food is great the staff are polite and the place looks very clean and the food is to die for no fat and well worth a look excellent take away

Very tasty food prepared quickly.

Always great food and generous portions too!

Always good food. I order from the Aroma fairly regularly.

Pawn toast was 10/10. Everything else was externally dry and seem reheated. Wouldn’t order again. Was polite on the phone though and food was in time stated when delivered.

Very good food. Best place for miles

Takeaway excellent food portion size and value.Went there previously sometime ago not that impressed definitely much better now.

Always lovely greeting when I come to get my food, Amazing tasting food with really big generous portions,I’ve compared portion sizes and trays to the one in manningtree and Other local ones and the prices are really good also ... I highly recommend there banquet if you have a few people over, two carrier bags full and loads of duck. Vegetarian selection is very good also for my daughter and they will adjust to your liking. I would never go anywhere else... it took a few years to be able to say that about a Chinese and Aroma I have no faults... thank you I will ordering again tonight love Treena And her family 👏👏👏👌❤️

Sweet and sour HK with CFR. Good portion size. Fair price. Hit. Tasty. 5 star hygiene rating.

Probably the best Chinese takeaway we've tried in Ipswich over the last 14 years.

We were staying over the road so decided to try the Aroma for dinner. You get plenty of food, and fairly good value for money (£50 for 6 meals). A couple of the group were not that impressed, but another couple were very happy with their meal. The menu is much more varied than many other Chinese take-aways I have used in the past (I had lamb which I have not seen on a take-away menu before).

Best takeaway Chinese food I've found since my previous favourite was closed when the proprietor went to prison and his staff were deported as illegals! Gets busy and sometimes difficult to telephone an order through but it's always ready and nicely prepared when I go to collect. As with all takeaways delivery can be difficult as those employed to deliver can't find my house!

It is good if you wanna get full and the portions are big. Taste not bad

Not the best but not the worst.

Superb every time, love the shredded smoked chicken.

Had a few great meals from here but tonight really disappointed as hardly any meat in all our meals dont think I will order again sorry

Really impressed with food when it first came as they were big portions and smelt nice. However, when I tried it, it just tasted and had consistency as though it had been re-heated. I was so disappointed. I wasn’t the only one that thought the same. In the end we left the chicken chow mein , beef chow mein and rubbery chicken satay. The chicken balls looked nice but again the chicken inside wasn’t great. The crispy chilli beef and smoked chicken wasn’t too bad but definitely won’t be ordering from there again and certainly won’t be recommending to anyone.

Great range of choices including Chinese, Thai, Malaysian, Japanese, inexpensive and very tasty. Free prawn crackers if spend more than a fiver, free spring rolls & samosas if spend more than £20 and free bottle of drink if spend more than £30. On top of that very friendly service.

It's OK but too much meat and not enough rice, it's almost 50/50. Otherwise good food and big portions.

Good food, a popular local Chinese take away

I have been using Aroma since before it was called Aroma. Out of all the Chinese takeaways I've used, this is the only one I really trust, and keep returning to. I work not very far from it, and often get deliveries when working at night. The service is courteous, delivery swift, and the portions good sized, and always delicious. In many years of using this establishment, not once have I ever had any cause to complain. It's a bit out of the way, but well worth trying, even if it's only for chips (which are superb, by the way). I'll probably be giving them a ring after I finish writing this.

The food that i ordered in the shop took absolutely ages,they were like headless chickens to say the least,i ordered curry with rice and it was the worst i have ever had in the industry and i have had loads chinese meals over the years.The meal came with free prawn crackers which were sealed in a bag but they were stale to the limit and were awfull,and when i opened the egg fried rice there were just chunks of egg mixed in,then the worst was to come when i opened the actual special curry,well it was a total disgrace to the industry,the curry literally flopped out of the container full of overpowering thickener and it tasted absolutely disgusting,it was like someone had chucked up their guts after a night on the beers.Avoid at all costs even if they offer free its totally unacceptable and thats being kind.

The worst ever. Not even worth telephone calls to inquire.

Of course they have no control over traffic, however as they are on Wherstead Road, best to avoid ordering any delivery at rush hour, ordered at 5pm arrived 6.35pm cold!

Had a mea here recently. Not very well cooked or made. Not upto it's old standards. Might just have been an off day.

One of the best 'Special Fried Rice' dishes I have ever had outside Asia. I could not fault the Crispy Chilli Beef which is a favourite of mine. My wife commented how good her noodles were. All of our meals (4) were delicious and with free prawn crackers and spring rolls we had more than enough to eat. I would certainly go there again.

Food arrived tasted absolutely awful! The food was all cold and the chawmain tasted absolute vile! Will never go there again and I don't recommend it

I couldn't believe how bad the food was Bland tasteless dry cold I had 1 mouthful and chucked the rest So did my husband Never again

Really good Chinese, lady also remembers my name!

Nice food helpful friendly staff when ordering for delivery
