Chi in Huntingdonshire

Visited this Sunday for our friend’s baby shower and had a great time. The staff let us get there before to decorate the table and nothing was too much trouble on the day. The lady that served us was really attentive and personable which was refreshing. The food is the star of the show. We ordered what seemed like every dish on the menu as it all sounded delicious and not a single dish disappointed! Great food great service!

Came in to eat on a Sunday evening at 7:30 and rang ahead to check they had availability. Arrived and there was 3 tables seated out of the whole restaurant, stood waiting to be served and seated and the staff deliberately stood with their backs to us, wiping down tables for the whole time we stood waiting. We were there maybe 3-4 minutes waiting and they kept ignoring us over and over. I get they want to shut up on time at 9pm but how difficult is it to seat two people? It’s just awful service with staff you can tell don’t care. We walked out and scrapped our evening plan for a meal. Won’t be coming back until I hear it’s improved.

Excellent food as always but a bit slow and got the order slightly wrong.maybe under staffing and service charge is too much.

This was a mistake I will never make again. Without doubt, the worst case of food poisoning I have EVER had, and I dont say that lightly. The place was completely empty at lunch time on a Saturday which was the first clue. (Though it was New Year's Day, so not many out and about) I had the Chicken Pad Thai and I can only assume it was refrozen a couple of times - most likely due to the bank holiday weekend. From the first mouthful, the worry set in. The chicken was hard in some pieces and it stank of something cheesy and I could tell it wasnt right, but I stupidly thought I was imagining it and forced myself to eat about half the plateful before feeling too queasy to continue. When I mentioned it to the waiter, he said the smell could be the fish sauce (second alarm bell - it's possible I had food poisoning from both the chicken AND the sauce). He took the plate to the "chef" who claimed she couldnt see anything wrong with it. (I really hope she tried eating some, just for the justice of it, lol) In an attempt to appease me (or maybe fob me off?) I was given a 15%-off next meal voucher. (Which will never be getting used) In any case, what followed from that afternoon and the next 3 days was more than I would want to subject the reader to in this review, but suffice it to say I did not leave the bathroom for the first 12 hours or so. Avoid this place like the plague... it wouldnt surprise me if that was there too. Yikes!

Not sure where to start tbh. On arrival I was quickly shown to my table but that’s where the positive experience ended. Ordered my meal (Duck Spring rolls and Chicken Thai Green Curry with a coke) and asked if it came with rice and was told yes. 1st issue arose when my starter arrived before my drink. On biting into the spring rolls I realised why as they were warm at best inside. I spoke to the waitress who apologised saying it was trainee chefs and took them away. 5 minutes later my main arrived with no rice and no sign of my correctly cooked starter only to be told they were coming soon. Needless to say I didn’t eat and left. I’m hoping I had an unlucky experience but I won’t be chancing it again.

Such a lovely atmosphere and even better customer service! Jack and Ella were so welcoming and had our orders ready so quickly! Would 10/10 recommend and will be returning soon x

Lovely food, great beer. Ella looked after us fantastically well. Highly recommend the Salt and pepper squid. The only reason this isn’t 5/5 is because the duck was a very small potion for the price. Overall… amazing! Thank you all

Absolutely awful experience. Bare in mind we we one of just 3 tables that had customers. After being seated we were soon moved as we were told there was no clean plates in the restaurant so we needed to go to a table that had been set. We then waited 10 minutes for our drinks order. After 35 minutes the waitress finally came to take our food order (the drinks still hadn’t arrived) and as we started ordering we were told that there was no chicken, prawns or beef for any of the dishes on the menu basically meaning that half the menu was off. Would have been good to tell us this as we entered the restaurant? We were hungry and angry at this point so decided to leave (just as the drinks finally arrived). We had paid a deposit upon booking and asked for it back. To our amazement one member of staff told us no as they don’t do refunds. After then demanding they refunded us they wanted it in cash as didn’t trust they would do it on the card. They had so little cash in the till we got it in shrapnel and the final couple of pound had to be asked for from a kitchen staffs pocket. A truly awful experience. Do not dine here. I’ll be surprised if they’re still open at the end of the month.

Awful experience. Sat down and asked to move as they didn’t have enough clean plates in restaurant to put any on that table. Took 20 mins for someone to take drinks order even though only 2 other tables were occupied. Still no drinks 20 mins later when they came to actually take order to tell us they had no beef or chicken in the restaurant at all so half the menu was not being served. At this point we decided to leave as the service had been awful and everything we had decided to have from the menu was off. I had reserved a table and paid a £35 deposit and had to wait a further 10 mins for this to be rectified as they couldn’t refund it in cash as they had taken it from my card however I wasn’t sure I trusted them to refund my card after the service I had received!! During this time waiting a customer actually came up to collect her own food from the counter as no one had taken over the food she had already complained was taking too long! Overall a bad experience for a family get together for my partners birthday wouldn’t recommend visiting.

Woeful. Only go if you want a terrible time. Food portion size is tiny vs the price you pay, so I had to cook when I got home! The service was maybe the worst I’ve ever seen as you need to constantly remind the staff of your order or to bring cutlery. The staff also appear very disinterested and angry. You would have to pay me to eat there again.

Good took ages to come out and when it did it was cold. Staff were friendly but there seemed to be more of a focus on the deliveroo drivers than customers sat in the restaurant.

Tonight 18/1/24 If I could give 0 stars I would. I went for a casual girls night with some friends. The service was awful. There was one lady completely unprofessional. Firstly the server asked if we were enjoying our meal and we hadn't even received it. Then she forgot one meal, we told them and said the response was “what tacos?” Next when the tacos eventually came it was cold and fatty and the lady said “if the food is tacos I will fire the chef”. When we complained about the food and the response was “my only excuse was the chef was tired”. We tried to enjoy the meal however after the 12th time interrupted we were becoming more uncomfortable and thought the lady was going to sit next to us. The women asked if we were going to come back again and when we said maybe, she said “she was personally offended” We were so glad to get out there. Don’t recommend going unless you want to be traumatised

A delicious meal out for my friends birthday! Could not fault the friendly and helpful service from our waiter Jack

Lovely time at Chi for a friend's birthday dinner, with attentive service from Jack and delicious food. Will definitely come back!

Good food, good company, good music. We ate at 7:30pm and by the end had the place mostly to ourselves. Thanks to Jack for being an attentive waiter.

Great service and food, loved the atmosphere and the set up of Chi! I've been to Chi quite a few times with a mix of friends, family and as a couple, would fully recommend for a tasty and interesting menu.

Been to Chi multiple times, always an enjoyable experience. LOVE the food, I try to always get something different each time, but I have my favourites. Always fantastic customer service, thank you to Jack on this occasion! 👍🏻 Highly recommend!

We have been to Chi a few times and its steadily gone down hill. This time we went for my daughters 11th birthday because she loves a specific dish. We had a party of 9 and there were 4-6 other people in the restaurant (so...

Cold food 🥶Freezing cold as there was no heating on in the dining area. Even with our coat on it felt - 2 inside and outside slightly warmer-1 under the outdoor heaters ?? crazy. The chef wore his winter coat. Waiters looked cold and struggled...

AVOID AVOID AVOID. If you want a cold atmosphere with cold food then this the place for you. To start this LOVELYYY dinner the place was freezing, then the food was cold. Sent back my food and my mums who had a cold burger, to...

Absolutely terrible service here! Food was pretty bad too and we only ate half! Staff are vacant, absent and frankly uninterested! To top it all, they automatically added a service charge 😳 Will not be returning

Thank you Chi! Faultless food and supreme service all round! Jack couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcome - he catered to our every need and made us feel so welcome (and his mojitos were delicious). The meals were cooked and presented beautifully...

Great selection of dishes and delicious food. Our server, Jack, was really helpful and polite. Service was fast and efficient. Fully recommend this place to anyone.

Food was fantastic, quick and awesome staff. Ray was brilliant so thanks a million to him. Definitely reccomend coming here

Excellent birthday meal with friends. We were greeted and served by Jack who was attentive, informative and friendly. The food came quickly and was both plentiful and delicious. There are new additions to the menu which are a welcome variation on their other excellent meals....

Returned to discover yet another new menu offering more delicious Asian food. We had the Beef Rendang, Crispy Chilli Beef, Jasmine Rice, and Seasonal Greens, all cooked to perfection. Huge shout-out to Elena, Ella, Maddy and Chef Ronald. Looking forward to the next time already!

Honestly do not bother. The service is appalling, the food all arrived together- which surprised us. When I asked the waiter if that was normal for all courses to arrive at once, he said, “I dunno, they rushed me”. When I asked him what one...

Wish I could give this place no stars. Waited ten minutes, studiously ignored by the staff who were standing around, gazing at tables that needed clearing. Three other groups left whilst we waited, then we gave up too

We visited on a Sunday afternoon, and it was lovely and quiet but good atmosphere with the music. The restaurant has beautiful decor and is very clean. Josh was an amazing server, and the food was phenomenal. We had the duck pancakes, pineapple fried rice...

Lovely meal, huge portions and great flavours. Everything was good. Have visited more than once, and will visit again. Please open a restaurant near to me in Rayleigh, Essex.

A late lunch/early dinner at what is becoming one of our favourite restaurants in the area. Great atmosphere, exceptional customer service and amazing food and drink selection. On this occasion, we had (and would highly recommend) the chicken pad thai and short rib beef mac...

I’ve reviewed before and we loved it here as vegetarians. But we probably won’t go back after last night. Apparently the menu has changed and they are using something that really tastes like actual chicken but didn’t think to tell us when we ordered. They...

2 dishes completely inedible, peking 46 and the cucumber salad - there was way to much salt / soy sauce. Korean chicken was very dry and hardly any sauce. Edamame beans tasted over cooked so we’re falling apart, once again salty but expected this, I...

I was exreamly surprised with this restaurant. Most chain restaurants have the same repetitive taste, but this was pleasantly different. A good menu to choose from. I had Korean beef tacos for starter and sweat & sour chicken for my main. Both tasty dishes at...

I love the Lychee Mojito, and Squid. Other than that, the foods were very salty considering that we’re asian. 😅😅 Sushi’s a bit alright, too much Mayo on top and no proper Wasabi was served.

Really nice vibe, mum and I were seated and served by a lovely gentleman named Joshua, and we didnt have to wait too long to eat either. We found the food to be full of flavour and the sticky rice was cooked to perfection. I...

Really enjoyed the food Lovely evening out Shout out to Ella who served us.. she looked after us really well and helped us navigate the menu

My wife and I were really been looking forward to dining at Chi. We hadn't been in a while, and thought it would be great to go there to celebrate my wife's birthday. We had booked some time in advance, so the anticipation was high....

We came as a couple for a celebratory meal and it was perfect. We received excellent service from Ella as our waitress and Jack on the bar. Service was swift and food/drinks were excellent. The menu has changed since our last visit and it’s lovely!...

Expensive. OK food. Cheeky service 12.5% charge spoilt it overall. Yes you can have it removed, but you’re put in a position of looking like a so and so if you argue it. Won’t be going again.

I came here with my wife and daughter on a Saturday evening, so there were 3 of us. The service was fine and the food came fairly quickly but the portions were a lot smaller than we expected AND the prices seem to be getting...

This is probably the first poor review of a restaurant I've left, but the experience was awful from start to finish. Firstly our reservation hadn't been logged properly and so a waitress opened up a closed section for us which was appreciated. Once we were...

I love Chi's food. But I'm always disappointed with the service in the restaurant. This time we went as a 4, waited at least 20 mins for someone to come take our drink order as they kept walking past us even though we had put...

We love eating here. Loads of veggie choice, some tofu options would be my only suggestion please! Great food, well priced, great service. Big love to Danni who was amazing thank you.

My third visit and this time with friends. Food is great as usual, but it's Pearl the waitress i return for! She is fantastic. Pearl has served me every time and is hysterical, nothing is too much trouble always willing to help, knows her stuff,...

Food was lovely. But the stars here at Huntingdon are two of the waitresses. Natalia and Pearl were very chatty and friendly even though it was very busy and packed when we arrived. These two great staff make all the difference here, and this means...

Fabulous food full of flavour, great ambience. But the star of the show is Pearl. What a great front of house. Funny, unique and couldn’t be more helpful. Chi - she is the best asset you have, don’t lose her. She was training new people,...

Me & my wife decided last night on a last minute date night & decided to head to the Cinema, we finished work late & hadn't had time to make dinner so decided we would grab something there as usually there is something nearby. What...

Came in on Boxing Day for a large festive family meall of 30+ people. We were very impressed with the quality of the food and how those with different dietary requirements were catered for. Although they were quite understaffed, Laura, Pearl and Natalia were polite,...

Phoned to book a table at 5:30pm for a table of 6 and a pram and got a booking at 6:30pm perfect time for us all I asked if I could bring my wedding cake as had just got married and that was fine. Upon...

After a lovely visit with my friends a few months ago, I returned with my family after recommending this place. I must say I was again so happy with our meal. The customer service was second to none and the food was amazing. Thank you...

Came for dinner, Only 3/4 tables at the time. Management sat on table, chef wandering around and hardly any staff. Food took forever (was only 3 small dishes) that sat on the pass for 8 mins. I eventually said something so they bought it over....

This was our first visit to a Chi restaurant The food was delicious & freshly cooked We will definitely visit again. Evie was so very attentive, not just to us, but to every table. She was the only ' waiting staff 'member on duty. The...

First visit and would definitely go back. Food really tasty and all the staff friendly. Pearl our waitress was very attentive and made it a pleasant experience.

Had a very enjoyable family get together for lunch on 1 October Food was excellent good selection of drinks and friendly staff

Mandatory 12% service charge. Happy to leave a tip if it all goes to the server. Irritated if it goes towards the wage bill. Next time will drink tap water to 'set off' my service charge bill!

Thank you so much to the manager and her staff for making our son's birthday an evening to remember. The food was delicious and the service was perfect. We even got a free drink for Matthew's Birthday. The staff go out of their way to...

When we arrived we was told they didn’t have half the items on the menu as they hadn’t received a delivery (this should of been told when we rang up and booked) we got asked to look at the menu while they got a table...

The food is great and the service was fine, but adding 12% to the bill for 'service' was a shock. They say order 2-3 dishes each, 2 was probably enough for most if you add a rice or noodles too.

Excellent quality of ingredients all cooked to perfection. I can recommend the bao buns, chicken dishes and vegetable sides.

We had a fantastic visit to Chi this evening. Everything came out so quickly, Evie our waitress was great. Manager was wondering around making sure everything was running smoothly. We have been to Chi a couple of times before and always come back because the...

Our whole experience here was great ! It’s lovely clean, nicely decorated restaurant. All of the staff were very happy and friendly right from when we walked in to when we left ! The food was very good, we didn’t wait long for it ,...

Excellent decor, although table under air conditioning too cold and we had to move. Only one other table with diners, but service to take our order was slow, we had to call them over after 15 minutes. One of our items was not available, but...

Attended for lunch this week as I had mean meaning to give the lunch menu a go and I wasn't disappointed. The bento box was lovely! Really impressed with the selection of food in the meal. There was a little wait for food but they...

Lovely staff, prompt service. Delicious food. All in all a great experience. Alcohol a touch expensive but didn’t detract from the evening 👍

Was slightly disappointed with the food, but the manager was great, Reacted and corrected it that is what you look for in a restaurant, we will give it another go soon. Thank you.

my husband and i had a meal here for our anniversary for the first time at lunchtime and from the moment we walked through the door till we left we was very well looked after. staff so friendly but pearl who served us explained how...

Had a really pleasant evening meal here with some exceptional staff really friendly and helpful making it an excellent atmosphere, especially Evie, thanks very much!

Couldn’t book table on line as wanted a large group. Phone number is wrong so had to contact them via another restaurant in the chain. Staff pleasant enough but service slow. Don’t order the Buddha bowl - half a bowl of rice with a few...

Went to chia for the first time .first impression looks very nice . Then a young waiter explained the menu but he was talking so fast I did not understand a word he was saying . Then I went to the toilets no roller roll...

We came here a year or so ago and there was no order at all, it now seems to have a head waiter and another guy running around checking on people and explaining the menu! Food was lovely but I’m aware Asian food just comes...

Arrived 7th April for a meal with some friends, knowing I hadn't booked I went in nice and early around 6pm. I was approached by staff and I asked it if it was possible, at late notice, to seat a group of 6 within the...

We went here as a last minute decision and I'm so happy we did. The food was excellent and the service was better. The staff were very attentive without feeling that they were overbearing. They appeared when needed and were very helpful when my wife's...

Our first visit here, heard some good and some bad about the place , great decor ,very friendly informed service ,not overly expensive ,Chicken Satay was the standout dish.

Went out with my friends to enjoy a meal after work but honestly, the food was a huge disappointment. I ordered some chicken bites (they were like stones, the taste-like they have been in the freezer for ages), the egg fried rice, too salty I...

Our first time at Chi, as i am a wheelchair user my wife and I need good access. a level access with button operated door was a superb feature. the staff were both polite and attentive. the food was excellent very tasty and served piping...

Ordered for delivery. My food was quite nice but portion size for price seems quite small and it was very greasy. My partner ordered a "Buddha bowl" which cost 15.00 and she was very disappointed. It basically consisted of a small handful of white rice,...

We visited for the first time today for lunch, and we were not disappointed. Food is served as tapas style, and portions were generous. We ordered 6 dishes between 3 of us which I would say is enough for the average person. The chap that...
