Went to shop itself. Smells a bit damp. Lady who served wasn't particularly friendly nor unfriendly. Food was served quickly but was average.

Omg wow!! First time here as our normal Chinese was closed, we have also moved closer to Frome so thought we’d give it a go. Put it this way, this is our new regular! Exceptional food. Definitely one of the best Chinese I’ve ever had. Sadly, no photos because we are it too fast. We had a good 20 min drive home once collected and it was all still hot, crispy chilli beef was still crispy. Honestly it was amazing!

UPDATE: Things seem to have improved. Quality has picked up and is much better. Delivery team remain excellent. ************************* I've been regularly getting meals from China Capital for over a decade. I've never had reason to even quibble the food. But since the new management its clear the quality of some products have reduced in quality. Last few meals have been disappointing. Perhaps its a money saving exercise but whatever the reason; if it's not broke, don't fix it.

Ordered a meal for myself and my family. Great choice on the menu, something for everyone! The food was ready within the timescale that the young lady on the phone gave when I called to order. Came in to collect, met by a very polite member of staff on the counter; a credit to the establishment. Really enjoyed the food, will be back soon.

How can the management not help their young staff serving. Telling them to say 45min wait when it's more then 2 hrs then letting grown men verbally abuse 17 year old staff that have never worked before and have money thrown at them, yet you still don't help. Its places like this that scare kids to work. Also these grown men should of taken it up with management. This was my takeaway I used all the time but not now how they treat young school staff. No young girl should put up with this

Ordered from here 20 minutes before they closed not expecting to get great food… wow was I blown away. Orders a fairly large amount of food, so was amazed when it was at my door in 15 minutes. Everything was fresh and piping hot, but the icing on the top of the Chinese cake was the salt and pepper chilli king prawns, them bad boys absolutely SLAPPED ! Never had better ones on my life. Hands down one of the best Chinese I’ve ever had. Them boys know what’s up

Called in tonight only 5 ppl waiting, so put in an order but the lady kept going off mid order shouting in the kitchen. After waiting half an hour another lady said she had only ordered rice and was still waiting an hour later, another man kept asking when his chow mein would be ready, the lady just kept saying we are busy, delivery orders still kept going out. It seems they are taking on too many orders. I eventually cancelled my order and got a refund. The lady said you should of asked for it quick, I said how can I walk in and order and say I want it quick in front of everyone else waiting! A couple other ppl walked out when they heard the waiting time. Also they only take cash. Will not be using them again.

Son got half a crispy duck at nearly £18 which was disgusting. Cold in parts with oil at the bottom of the take away box you could pour out. The duck itself looked and felt like hair. When we phoned to say, got told they could cook another one but it would be exactly the same! Never going back there for food!

Great food freshly cooked so hot. Isn't left hanging around for you to collect - that said is usually why you have to wait even on pre order. They are always busy but do give you a time to collect. Only drawback is it's cash only. Not a problem really as the Co-op nextdoor ish have an ATM. They used to give prawn crackers on a minimum spend, not so sure if they do now but we've never had any and spend over £30.

Terrible. Crispy duck is supposed to come on the bone with crispy skin. This came pre-shredded in a tray - no crispy skin, not on the bone. What’s more each piece was dried out as if it sat under a heat lamp. See picture. Completely inedible. Didn’t eat it as didn’t want to risk food poisoning. Eating toast for tea, very disappointing.

I would like to take the opportunity to highly recommend this take away. The order arrived five minutes earlier than the allotted time slot and was a complete order with some additional dishes which were most appreciated. The person taking the order took the time to explain what the less well known dishes were and recommended what other choices which would compliment our selection. All the dishes were piping hot, generously portioned and well seasoned and sauced/We are looking forward to our next takeaway!

Ordered chinese At 5.30 to pick up ready for 6.30 and waited over half and hour Outside, This has been our regular chinese Always have enjoyed eating from China capital, but this evening our takeaway was very poor, lemon chicken was tough and hard, vegetarian chow mein was very dry and had hardly any bean sprouts and was made up with chunky carrots Which was not very tasty, Prawn crackers taste stale. Decided to let them know was not happy with the food and not up to their normal standers and was only just given a sorry which was not the result I was hoping for.

We first ate here a couple of years ago, they got the order wrong and when we phoned up to complain the manager argued on the phone with us telling us we were wrong.. (we know what we ordered obviously, and it was not what we received). Tonight we braved it again, since it was the only Chinese we could get through to as most are shut because of the virus. The food came early, which was great! But then out of everything we ordered (5 items) only two were correct..tried to call them back 10 times and they either didn’t answer or “user busy”. So being 7pm already we decided to just eat it, and it was absolutely disgusting. My “Singapore noodles@ tasted like nothing but pepper and only had pork in, my “garlic vegetables” were sweet and sour. My partners “vegetarian Singapore fried rice” was simply egg fried rice. Will not be eating from here again..

Ordered take away on a Saturday night only to wait exactly 2 hours for delivery!! (Ordered at 7:40 food delivered at 9:40). The staff explained they were busy and would take a maximum of 1 1/2 hours. Rang after 1 1/2 hours to be told the food hadn’t left yet. No compensation but a £2 bag of prawn crackers given with most deliveries. Avoid if you are hungry!

We always end up going to get our Chinese takeaway here, it's local, they're friendly and they've never let us down.

So I live in frome, and would not be leaving this review unless I believed it was essential. For anyone who are thinking off ordering from here simply do not. Firstly to start of the awful service the delivery driver decided to not knock on the door and stand outside with our Chinese until we realised he we there (I suppose that explains why it was cold), when we asked why he didn’t ring the door bell which was in front of his face his reasoning was because they don’t ring the doorbell after 8. Then to go on to the portion sizes each dish on average around 5 pound had 3 and 1/2 table spoons obviously not adequate for one person let alone sharing with a family (absolute rip off), the dishes were cold, bland and flavourless. The veg was over cooked and the meat was processed full of water. The soup we order was like a curry not a soup, thick and cold. Finally on the food topic they forgot two dishes and gave us a wrong dish, but to top it all off when we rung up in hope to pontentially sort this problem even if we had to pay to get another dish out the lady who answered insisted it was there and just made us absolutely unheard, unless there was a magic compartment in the bag it was not there. Do not get a Chinese from here absolute rip off, the service was awful and the food was even worse. Disgusted and annoyed how a business can think its ethically viable to act in this way.
