Undeniably the best Chinese food on the planet (including china itself) their service was immaculate, the relaxing atmosphere and the food. Now the food… Was so good I could’ve cried, there’s a reason i keep coming back. China city is the best there is

Been using this takeaway for a long time and after spending over £70 tonight and requesting prawn crackers with the order for my birthday none given. Might seem trivial but it’s the little things like this that count! Can’t even get through on the phone 📞 poor service

We visited and ordered 1x Singapore fried rice and 1x Pork Chow Mein. The premises seemed clean. Had some seats for waiting customers inside. Street parking was available directly outside the row of shops. Shop seemed quite popular. Food was tasty, but a little bit greasy for my liking.

Lovely food we enjoyed the lemon chicken. The chicken curry was great, very strong and spiced which was rather nice. We will be returning.

Great Chinese takeaway, Its the best Chinese takeaway that we have tried in Leicester. The sweet and sour chicket balls are great as is all the chow mrin and rice dushes we have tried. Always get amazing quality food.

It's probably the worst food I've had in a long while , a curry that was far too rich , the rice was all stuck in lumps ....won't be going back.

Always eat here beautiful food. Prices are on par with everywhere else. Very friendly staff. Only thing is I wish you could pay on card over phone as I do have to go elsewhere if I don't have cash.

Ordered from here for the first time. Premises are clean and tidy and the staff were really friendly. Reasonable prices for the food in comparison to other places. Unfortunately a lot of the dishes ordered were really greasy making them unpleasant. Beef fried rice was really dry and over cooked. Egg fried rice were nice and chips well cooked. Prawn toast was too oily for my liking and was very gooey and a odd texture to what usually used to. Perhaps it was an off day and maybe I’ll try these again in the future and give a second chance.

Was told food would be delivered in an hour! Hour and half later no apology! Paid in cash driver just walked away no change offered 🤔🤔food was ok to be fair but when I order chicken AND !!! cashew nuts I expect more than 5 ! Cashew nuts!! And when I pick a piece of chicken up to eat I don’t expect the WHOLE meal to come up with it VERY GELATINOUS 🤢

The food has always been good but they struggle to meet delivery times, we’ve used China City for years but again tonight a 1 hour delivery promise turned into 2.5 hours with no food, we called to cancel then the driver arrived . My motto , don’t over commit and under deliver . Set the expectation and meet it .

China City, without question the best Chinese food in LFE if not Leicester! Really friendly service, beautiful and consistent food. Quick delivery. Having looked for years for a great Chinese we’re so happy to have China City on our doorstep! You won’t be disappointed.

Food is great and it shows with how busy they are but they need more staff on a weekend to cope with the demand. Best tip I can give is on a weekend call an hour and a half before you want the food.

Be aware that this establishment does not open until 23:00 as advertised. Save yourself the drive because doors were locked at 22:30. Bit of a piss take to advertise a time that is not correct so you drive down to find the door locked 30 min before advertised.

Always use China City but tonight have waited nearly 2 hours and on contacting them it has not even left for delivery! Absolutely appalling to wait this long and to blame it on the rain is a very poor excuse!!! Cancelled the food on principle 😡

This is my local Chinese Takeaway and I've never been disappointed yet. I've lived in this locality for 30 years and have seen this establishment change hands a few times (and I think the name may have changed too) but China City has always been a reliable source of Takeaway food. The current owners have been here for a few years now and they are always polite, courteous and helpful. The prices are keen, the menu is wide-ranging and varied, tending toward Cantonese these days, the food is prepared quickly, and the quality is always second to none. You could compare the quality of food from China City with any number of other take-out establishments or eat-in restaurants anywhere in the country (believe me - I have), and for me, this place would always come out top. It's a small pity that they can't offer a full sit-down restaurant facility because I feel sure that people would travel some fair distance for food of this quality, once the word got around. Everywhere I've travelled I like to enjoy a good quality Chinese meal, but I'm always glad to get back home and visit my 'old faithful' China City. Can't get enough of it 🙂

I had trouble getting through on a Saturday evening - they were engaged three times and when I finally did get through I got a bad line and they hung up. Worked next time thank goodness. A good sign - lots of people ringing up. There were lots of us ordering and it came to about £80 for the group. But that's not bad when you think there were at least a dozen of us. We put all the bowls on the table and had a bit of everything, and it was all good. The yum suk starter was a find - don't miss it!

Avoid. Very poor service. Explanation - Ordered for collection at 2020. Was told 20 minutes. Arrived at 2040 and evident that they had forgot my order. At 21:10 (50 minutes after I placed the order and 30 minutes after paying) I asked where it was. I was informed "2 seconds 2 seconds" before she disappeared into the kitchen. I then asked whether they had just started cooking it and was told yes. I walked out. Material facts 1) I had ordered a chow mein and prawn crackers (nothing complicated) 2) it wasn't busy. Furthermore, my previous visit to this place resulted in a lenghty wait and resulted in me witnessing complaints over the counter and via telephone. The complaints were rudely answered.

Was staying at the Hilton about a mile away. Visited on Tuesday night we were the only people in the restaurant side. Had Saag Chicken, egg fried rice (enough for two) and Keema Naan bread. Bargain price of £13.75 Food was lovely and better than curry house at end of my road. Very friendly people and next time I'm up there for business trip I will be back 😋
