China Chef Chinese Takeaway in Birtley in Gateshead - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The best Chinese food I’ve had in the area, everything is fresh and me and my partner loved every dish we had, definitely will be ordering again, the honey chilli chicken is to die for

lovely as always. yet to be disappointed from here

Lovely Food! Will definitely order from here again

Foods barley warm - Drinks (Coke) warm instead of being cold - Delivered just after latest time given - Some parts of the food are over cooked and undercooked - 1st time I have even thought to leave feedback on Just Eat - £26! I would like a partial refund

Ordered a few times recently and haven’t had a bad meal yet. Great food and good portions!

The nicest Chinese takeaway we’ve ever had. The salt and pepper chicken was to die for and the chicken curry had loads of pieces of proper chicken in it, not the typical rubbery stuff

No complaints about China Chef in general. I love the food.

Really disappointed with the mixed starters they were greasy and we only are the ribs. Really poor value when it’s half the price of the mega box

We ordered chips with the chicken balls, but we got rice! The balls according to the menu were supposed to be 10 to a portion, we got 9. However, food quality was excellent, as were the sauces, so we're not looking for a refund or anything.

Chips were stale! Which is unusual as this is normally a great takeaway , and you no longer get free prawn crackers 😕

Duck was perfect!! Will definitely order again.

Delicious hot food delivered on time. Highly recommend.

Vile tasting sweet and sour chicken jingling style…food tasted off and sauce was bitter not able to eat it due to rancid taste and smell… £22 wasted and in the bin …restaurant wouldn’t replace as too late for driver! Will never use this restaurant again

I think I’ve found my new ‘go to’ Chinese.

Beautiful food and great service

Food delivered in the time scale and still piping hot 15 mins after delivery when I went to dish it out. Chicken with spring onion (no ginger) Duck fried rice Noodles chips and gravy I'd definitely order again - all tasted really nice

Ordered first time from here last night Chicken with spring onion (asked for no ginger) Duck fried rice Noodles chips and gravy Delivery was standard, food was piping hot - and I left it another 15 mins after it was delivered as I was busy The gravy was lovely and thick and really tasty. The chicken with spring onion had lovely decent sized pieces of chicken in and the duck fried rice was tasty too I'd definitely re-order from here.

First time ordering, food piping hot, honey chilli chicken was lush! Would order again!

I've used the china chef 5 or 6 times and the food has always been hot and full of flavour. Battered chicken balls with fried rice and curry sauce is my favourite along with the majority of food on the menu, nice friendly staff and reasonable prices

brilliant delivery and early is great

Good quality and quantity, the b1 munchie box was full! I was so surprised! Thank you!

Food arrived on time, was warm and very tasty! Would eat here again

our food was lovely and there was plenty of it thank you 😊

Awesome food and very friendly staff will definitely be going back,thanks again.

amazing service and good, also came early which was great

Ordered for delivery after the pub. Special chow mein was stunning 😁

the food was delicious and the delivery was early.

ordered from here a few times, food is always lovely delivered on time. highly recommended

Tasty hot food. Sewed crispy chicken is delicious

Happy with the delivery and loved the food would Order from you’s again

The food was good, but the place is dodgy and I stood around waiting for the food for an extra ten minutes while they ignored me.

Arrived late, but also lacked the 'freebie friday' thing that was advertised with them on the list. Also food was sub-par and just bad. I rang the shop after ordering about the Freebie Friday thing and they guy on the phone didn't understand what I was saying, said he'd call me back, and didn't. Bad.

Always tasty - always hot. Highly recommend.

These guys are probably the best around for chinese food. Always on time, always high quality. And sometimes they add freebies to your order, nice touch :)

delicious and hot. Huge portions.

Always a spot on meal... would recommend.

Always excellent and very tasty

Charged for food that wasn’t delivered and they said we would be refunded which we have t. Always use drivers not working as an excuse. Very un professional from ordering to delivery. 🤬

Enjoyed it better than our usual Chinese take away.

Best chinese I've ever had. Can't recommend enough

food was hot when arrived, delivery driver was cheerful, food was lovely cooked just right and plenty of flavour, portion size of food was more than we expected and for once a takeaway that reads the comment section and what was wrote was listened to.

Always lovely hot food delivered on time. Best Chinese in the area! My opinion 👍

food was gorgeous. Best Chinese we've had in ages.

Ordered Tofu Red Thai Curry but was sent the basic Tofu Chinese curry, boyfriend enjoyed it anyway and didn’t want to wait for the correct one so didn’t ring but he said it was lovely anyway. Food’s always great here and always on time :)

I love the food from here. The portions are huge, full of of flavour and the food is always steaming hot when it arrives. This has to be the best go to take-away of all time. It is indeed incredible value for money and I always have some left over for lunch the next day. Thank you China Chef and I’m sure I will be ordering the same, some time soon. I’ll be back! 👍

First time ordering from here and it did not disappoint. Very nice food, will definitely order from here again

Ordered around 6:38pm estimated time for delivery was 7:20-7:40pm got notification that food was on its way at 7:41 waited till 7:50 still no food so pressed button to say my order is late got new estimated time of 8:05 waited till 8:15 called the restaurant and was told my order got lost in the system and they will be making it fresh as one of the delivery drivers cars broke down which I understand comes down to bad luck but it’s now 9:30 they had time to close restaurantfinally getting my food

Food lovely and hot on delivery

This order was so messed up. Didn't get the honey chilli spare ribs or the house special crispy seaweed. I did get a portion curry sauce which was not ordered. Seems like my order got mixed up with someone else's.

The chow mein is awful. I would not recommend. I hardly leave reviews but I had to. Waste of money. Avoid.

My curry sauce was missing from the order

Food nice ….very late though restaurant did call after I messaged them …

The food is generally very nice!

Delivery was on time but driver had a lit cigarette in his mouth as we answered the door. No one wanted the seaweed as it tasted way too salty and the mains were bland. Tried here based on the reviews as our usual was not available, don't think we'll come again.

Beautiful food but took 2 hours to arrive

Use this takeaway all the time never had a bad meal

Sauce in the Thai red curry was too runny but all the food was nice

Soup was outstanding, chips nothing special not many prawns and chicken was frozen strips not freshly cooked chicken

Excellent service! Food was amazing thank you 😊

On time but most of the food was cold

Lovely food delivered early by a lovely lady, very pleasant

Worst Chinese EVER !! The batter was white in places on the chicken balls ,the chicken was HARD n chewy, the chips were were white not cooked enough,and there was a strange taste to both the chicken balls and chips ,the BIGGEST WASTE OF £15 EVER !! WILL NEVER ORDER FROM THERE AGAIN ,change your CHEF !! Threw it all away after two bites of one chicken ball and three chips WORST EVER !!

Ordered online and after an hour it hadn’t arrived. I contacted China Chef and the order had not been received. They sorted it really quickly and got my order to me and as always the food is lovely

New to area and nervous ordering somewhere new but this was pleasant

Fabulous food always delicious. Love it 👍

I thought I ordered the crispy curry puffs but apparently ordered the curry chicken parcels instead. Which is fine. That's my fault. But I honestly couldn't even eat them. They were soggy and didn't have any chicken in them. Just huge pieces of curry flavoured leeks. So definitely make sure you are ordering the crispy curry puffs instead

Absolutely beautiful food, all piping hot and exactly as ordered

What can I say… the food was Excellent!! thank you, we will definitely be ordering again 😊

Absolutely lovely, will be back :)

Terrible service was over 1hr late and there saying I had to pay delivery charge again

Great food and portions would order again!

Not the best I’ve ever had from here

Would give 0 stars if I could, food was disgusting, rice was soggy, noodles were claggy, chips were no better, chicken balls tasted fishy and kids said gravy tasted funny! absolutely no taste, was literally pre-cooked food reheated, threw it all in the bin, might as well have thrown the £45 in the bin and saved myself the hassle! Never again!!!

Chewy chicken and slimy other meat. Normally lovely just gutted money gone 20.99

Delivery came early, and the food was outstanding. Absolutely gorgeous would recommend.

Ordered kung-po for a change but to be honest didn't enjoy it , too many water chestnut and bamboo slices. Also not too much flavour as had from other places normally have bit spice to them. Chicken chow mein bit bland as not much flavour. Plus late delivery

Chicken didn't have nice texture.

Food was over an hour late - so I cancelled the order. Over £30 was taken from my bank anyway - but still no food! Even a text or email to say the food was going to be late would be nice. But nothing. £32.00 well spent! I called the takeaway to be told they’d been busy, which is fine, but just let me know. They weren’t too busy to take my money though. I’ve not ordered from here before and I certainly won’t again.

We ordered the munchies box and crispy beef in a honey chilli sauce delicious.

Fried rice was bland and anaemic looking, chips were the same. First time ordering from here, wouldn't use again sorry

Chicken and sweetcorn soup was delicious as was the chicken curry and boiled rice. +++++

Lovely food first time I’ve tried .. foot hot and plenty of it and driver pleasant

My favourite Chinese restaurant

It’s not even here and i’m starving like hurry up man

Food was lovely, however I pay 1.80 for chips which I never received

Food is always delicious 👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Lovely thought the takeaway set up was wierd like inside a house but food was beautiful

Good quality food and good size portions will definitely be back

Food was cold as the restaurant wrote wrong address on take away box so delivery driver went to wrong address first tried to ring the restaurant over 50 times and got user busy every single time, first time using this restaurant and will never use again abysmal

Food was fresh, hot, delivered on time. Taste was OK. Sweet and sour sauce was a bit like red jelly

The food was nice but the sweet and sour sauce just taste like vinegar, that’s was the only bad part about the meal.

Food didn't show, they still charged me and no one called to say why it didn't come.

Hot tasty and delicious. Will be ordering from here again.

Chicken Chow Mein lovely, Chicken Fried Rice really nice, Chips hot & Fresh.

Excellent food quality. Lovely and tasty. Favourite

Fantastic food really hot and well prepared.

Well worth the money, really nice food delivered red hot

Good delivery service as arrived earlier than expected. Nice , quality food. Lovely taste and flavour. Defo will order again

Amazing! I’m very fussy with Chinese food and this was beautiful! Meat was lovely, curry is tasty! Thank you!

Food was cold and terrible I’ll not be eating here again
