Aroma House in Southend-on-Sea

Found hair(long and short) in our food and a piece of metal probably from a metal scourer they use for washing up.. Even they didn't say sorry.. very disappointed, never order from here again

The food is always great, generous portions & free food gifts.

Best Chinese we’ve had in a long time! Thank you!

Always very quick and food is great!

Something or someone has changed here. Last two orders have been disappointing. This time the chow mein was way too salty, almost to the point of being inedible. Satay sauce almost tasteless. Crispy chilli chicken was ok though. However, I don’t think I’ll be using you again. Shame, used to be great.

Excellent food - hit the spot perfectly

Food was hot and lovely! Also got free spring rolls which was a nice touch

Food was lovely and hot and received two free packets of prawn crackers, two trays of chicken and a bag of fortune cookies. it was a large order as well because my family had just got back from a day trip to London. I always choose Aroma. Thank you 👍

Absolutely awful, disgusting- will never use again.

Cancelled order and did not received a refund

Absolutely amazing. Food is delicious. Perfect service. I was asking to have chicken wing piecea which has 2 bones in it only, and they did it.Sounds funny, but little things like this makes me to come back. Great service. Thank you very much. Will definitely order again!

Good food...and very prompt. Even got free pancake rolls...which was a nice surprise. 👌

Great food, fast delivery. Highly recommend+++

Food was great. Always is. Delivery driver weren’t happy about the flights of stairs up to my flat and he made sure I knew he weren’t happy. Maybe don’t be a delivery driver id you don’t like stairs? Just a thought.

Really tasty piping hot food. Highly recommend

Dreadful meal, nothing 'special' about the chow mein, overloaded with huge onions, tasteless and hardly any meat. Mini spring rolls were so greasy and had hardly anything inside, just like some kind of paste! Spare ribs also greasy and fatty! This used to be such a good Chinese, looks like it's gone right downhill, the kitchen looks a mess too!! £18 for these 3 items for 1 person!!

duck had half dozen small bones in it, special chow mean wasn't it was dry, small portion with 2 small pieces of chicken in it and tasted dreadful, special rice not special, yellow in colour with couple meaty bits added also dry. abysmal...won't be ordering from here again! shame it has been quality in the past.

Always perfect. Food always delivered hot. Always really tasty.

very nice and gave us free wings , ty <3

Hot food very tasty and good value for money

Hands down our favourite Chinese in Southend, fantastic food and lovely service

Unfortunately the curry was mostly sauce with little content .

not as good as it used to be, very oily and sauce like jelly

Very happy food was hot through out

Just had a delivery and it wasn’t good. Missing parts of our order, the chow mein was half a box, the egg fried rice had no eggs and was very watery. Tried to call them back but they never answered, all 12 times. Won’t be ordering here again

Great chinese food. And it came earlier than stated. Impressive

always have great food from here and it is always super early! go here every other weekend and it never disappoints!

I can’t say it enough, this Chinese is the absolute best by far. The kung po was perfectly spicy, the chicken balls were fresh; it’s delicious.

Lovely hot food and delivered quickly as usual by friendly driver.

The quality of the food was shockingly bad, everything was full of grease and had next to no taste. The food recieved was as poorly cooked to the point it could of been an order from earlier which was just re cooked. Will not be ordering from here again especially spending around £50 for the order.

Once again, Aroma House knocked it out the park. They are so quick and the food is absolutely delicious. The best Chinese around by a long shot.

Very tasty food. Prompt delivery.

Best Chinese as always. Also the best delivery drivers

The food was tasteless and greasy. The chicken balls were just pure batter and the smallest bit of chicken, not crispy at all. The seaweed was stale and lacked flavour. Rice was the only positive of the dinner. Very disappointing, and even the sweet and sour chicken tasted funny. Prawn crackers were also stale, and to top it off when eating a fortune cookie it was soft, didn’t crack, and felt like Playdo. Will will not recommend and will not order again

Salt and chilli chicken had sugar on it. Was very sweet. Never had that before on this dish...

First time ordering here and the food was beautiful! Everything was cooked perfectly and was hot on delivery will definitely be ordering here again.

Great food quality good delivery service and always meet my dietary needs these guys and girls are the best xx

Got a takeaway. Roast pork fish was hard and almost inedible. Rest of good not great. Even the “free” fortune cookie wrapped in foil was soft. Waste of my £30 won’t eat ffem there again.

Lovely and hot, friendly driver. Thanks 😋

Excellent food as always, great friendly delivery - thank you

The best in town. Always tasty. ❤️

My go to Chinese, usually 5/5, tonight’s rating 3/5, only due to not delivering the drink I ordered! Food was great as usual!

This is the best Chinese in Southend, the food is excellent

Lovely food as usual. Always arrives hot and on time.

Lived in the area two years and hadn’t found a decent Chinese having tried multiple!! This place is perfect! Really good food and big portions and free items!! The smoked shredded chicken is delicious! Home made pancake rolls are yummy. It was all delicious and I’ve finally found my go to place! Xx

Food arrived on time. Everything was well presented and hot. All meals were a very good portion size and most importantly absolutely delicious. I will definitely order again.

loved the food! they were kind enough to swap the sweet and sour sauce for satay sauce and the containers are thick enough to reheat the food

My favourite Chinese, always delicious food 👌🏻

Food came quick and hot , got a free item which I’m very grateful for! Also lovely food

Excellent food as alway, great delivery - would recommend

Crispy chili beef a lot bigger than most places so tad chewy. Rest of it was great. Nice wonton pastry.

Food was nice and arrived in good time and hot. The only thing I would mark down is that the curry and chow mein arrives in larger containers but only half filled which is disappointing. Paying £16 for 1 curry and 1 chow mein to receive half filled. 4 stars on that basis but it was nice.

Food was dry,half portion,pancake literally just had onion in it

The home made crispy duck rolls were delicious! I’ll be ordering those again for sure. The chicken and sweet corn soup was just want I needed to help my fever. The little touch of spice in it has really helped. Food hot and tasty

Great service and delivered with free spring rolls ☺️

The food was hot and delicious, early delivery by a friendly driver.👍

Absolutely DELICIOUS The chicken chow mein was packed with chicken and the noodles were super tasty. The salt & pepper chicken wings were crispy and nomnomnom… the home made spring rolls were exceptionally good, light and crunchy. I’ll certainly be ordering again 10/10

excellent service and food as always. highly recommended

First time we've tried Aroma House after some disappointing deliveries from elsewhere. Really lovely food, delivered bang on time, food was piping hot and tasted really fresh. Some lovely free items included too (much appreciated). Very impressed and will definitely be back. I think we've finally found our regular Chinese! Thank you

Lovely as usual. Everything was delivered hot and rest and tasted delicious. Everyone enjoyed.

Just had delivery i never had such bad food. It was dry the duck full of fat the saty chicken was hard and old. The spare ribs had more fat on it than meat. Its a shame you can't put a picture up on here it would put you off.

Always great food and service! food comes hot and is tasty. We have used them now for 3 years and wont use any other Chinese takeaway.

The food was disgusting tbh. The chow mein was burnt. The chicken balls were very doughy. The chips were overcooked & mostly all the tiny bits that you'd normally throw away. The curry sauce had absolutely no kick to it at all, it may aswell have been gravy. I don't think I'll be ordering from here again

Food was on time and piping hot! Definitely recommend and would order again!

The service was great but would not recommend the Tom yam soup .. not the nicest I’ve had in fact was nothing like a Tom yam soup I’ve ever tasted before.. was very disappointed.. but delivery was on time and again good service

I used to come here during my previous job's lunch break, and the food was good. However, over the years, it seems there has been a decline in quality. Items fried in oil now have a stale aftertaste (such as crispy seaweed, prawn crackers, and prawn toast). Additionally, the batter on the chicken balls isn't fully cooked, and the chicken in curry dishes has become rubbery. Thankfully, the rice and noodles remain good, but getting those right shouldn't be challenging.

Always great food, delivered on time would not go anywhere else

Fantastic food as always, really quick and love the free thank you item

Food is always lovely and on time. We will not go anywhere else. 5 stars 🌟

lovely food as always and great customer service. highly recommended

Order was correct, lovely and on time. Free dish was a nice surprise and very tasty.

Food arrived on time, was lovely and hot. First time ordering will definitely order again 😎

Unfortunately there was a massive breakdown in communication. They had sent the wrong dish and I was told they was to busy to change so I had to go to the restaurant to change the dish and I was approached by a very angry and aggressive woman and told me because I’d ordered with a card. I can’t have a refund. Then a gentleman came out and dealt with it properly. And gave me the right dish such a shame the food is usually great

Food was okay, delivery driver was good

Lovely hot food and delivered quickly as usual by friendly driver.

Got a half a tub of beef chowmein, the food was burned.badly which explains it.

Absolutely delicious as usual. Tried the roast pork Chinese style and it was so tender. Delivered hot and fresh by a lovely friendly driver. Wouldn’t go anywhere else! ⭐️

The food was hurrendous undercooked and tastes disgusted. The chicken balls were like paste inside the dough was wet and soggy. Worst food I ever tasted.

Excellent Food And Service Thanks...

Food is always hot and is always on time, 20/10 never use anywhere else

Food is always 10/10 always hot and tastes amazing, never go anywhere else for our Chinese

Arrived early it was lovely and hot, delicious. Friendly delivery service. Recommend

I was not surprised that the food was delivered about 5 minutes late as the order was for over £100. Everyone enjoyed the food. Generous proportions and very tasty

Quality meal would order again.

The food is always good and the portions are generous

Was okay.. chicken balls were undercooked, ribs were bit mehhh but the curry was lovely and rice was good also got free chicken wimgs which were lovely! Shame about the chicken balls and ribs

Food was Luke warm , food was not up to standard especially the beef curry the beef was chewy and slimy

Always lovely food from Aroma. I highly recommend. Drivers are always polite and friendly too. 10/10

Arrived hot! Tasted really nice. We will order from here again

I never usually bother leaving reviews but this is the best Chinese I’ve had in a long time. Really great food, will definitely order again next time.

I used to order from this place years ago but it’s nothing like it used to be. Flavourless, chewy and bad quality. Awful hygiene rating too.

Great service, food was hot and very tasty.

Delicious, was beautiful!! And came nearly half an hour early!! Perfect!!

Delicious food and at a fantastic price. Will become my weekly treat for definite

It wasn’t as nice this time, the chow mein didn’t have any taste really. And the chilli garlic salt chips (which are usually my favourite!) were also a little disappointing. Not the usual unfortunately

Lovely food delivered on time and hot.

Hot delicious food delivered on time, the prawn toast was 👌🏻

Lovely food and delivered quickly as usual

This is our go to Chinese, but after this order we are unlikely to go back. Food was of a really low quality. Shame.

Great food came early, full belly job done
