China Cottage in Cardiff

don't know what curry I had delivered der was not chicken the "meat" looked more like mushroom I would guess beef but wasn't chewy had to throw it out.

Great food arrived hot and great value for price highly Recommend!!

chilli chips had been left too long and burnt, chicken balls were over cooked and hard. the chicken chow mein was fine and the curry leaked in transit.havent tried this after a bad experience 2 years ago. wont be ordering from there again anytime soon.

Food was great, delivery was fast and delivery driver was extremely nice!

Ordered at 6.30 and was delivered at 8.20

china cottage never had a bad word to say The food is lovely and always hot

food wasn't fresh, chips over cooked and hard.. soggy bean sprouts, cold curry, rice was OK food very bland. lovely delivery driver, delivery quick. I won't be ordering again.

As always, food was delicious and really hot upon arrival.

They forgot to give us few things AND THE BEEF AN ORAWN DISHES weren’t more than a run full of onions nad bamboo shoots with the tiniest sprinkling of either lil tiny beef pieces or minute prawns - it’s a JOKE!! Stick to their rice and chicken balls seems that’s all they can cook here

The chips were awful. They tasted like they had been cooked more than once. Not a lot of flavour in the food either. Delivery guy was great however.

delivery was earlier than expected, quality of food was lovely......

I have never had a bad meal from here. Salt and chilli chicken is a must

Delivery was super quick, the food was delicious.

Lovely food as always thank you

being early wasn't a problem, and the delivery driver gave a courtesy call prior to delivery to confirm where our house was which was great as my house isn't the easiest to locate and drivers normally get lost. Food was hot and tasty and had plenty of sauce.

food was cold order was wrong ..no taste unfortunately

Roast duck and egg fried rice was delicious. Young chow, chow mein was also pretty good. J was pleasently surprised

Lovely food at a great price and fast delivery

Great food very tasty and hot when delivered. Overall very satisfied with this company

We ordered a large potion of chicken balls and sweet and sour sauce and a small portion of 5 arrived and a small tub of sweet and sour sauce

Chicken balls some were cooked nice some over cooked but overall nice meal

the pancakes rolls are good but the duck chow mean is just really weird and unlike any chow mein I've ever had. definitely not a huge fan of it and the orange sauce on top of the duck is fairly unappetising at best. don't think I'll be ordering here again

Chips seemed reheated. Chow mein meat and fish tasted off. Didnt eat majority of it

Chicken fried rice was under cooked, duck for the wraps was so dry it was like eating talcum powder and the price was extortionate

Food is great piping hot very tasty and staff very friendly

overcooked chips ( definitely not freshly cooked), weak bland curry sauce, tastes like its watered down and then watered down again. special fried rice is lovely, fast delivery and service.

Good tasting food and portions were larger than expected but paid £46 and didn’t get any free prawn crackers, come on what’s that all about.

Best hot and sour soup I've had anywhere, and piping hot delicious all round 💯%

Delivered very politely. The food was lovely as always and we haven’t had a takeaway for a while and it was just as we remembered

Spring Rolls were horrible and the duck chowmain worst I’ve ever tasted and the chicken balls were dry and the curry sauce tasted like powder, total waste of 20 quid, will stay with Man Po just felt like having my Chinese delivered, the price you pay for wanting to stay in and chill, you get served rubbish…

Delicious food once again, thank you.

Really tasty, the only place I will order a Chinese from!

Friendly staff, amazingly quick delivery and the food was GREAT

Absolutely love a china cottage after a days work! Ordered delivery and food come speedy quick and early, great taste and satisfied my tastebuds 😍🤤

Awful food quality cold horrible taste unsatisfied and when rang Chinese up they weren't interested never ordering again

Food was cold and crispy beef tasted absolutely disgusting, chips were like cardboard and curry sauce was like a water consistency.

Enjoy the food very good delivery service

food lovely piping hot and fresh just curry sauce always watery but everything else very nice

Never had problem with the times before, used to be a regular

It took 2.5hrs from ordering when it arrived no apology and the curry was watery and no taste wouldnt a order again!

My order was over half hour late. I jad to ring the takeaway to find out where it was.

I wouldn't usually leave a review, but as we waited 2 hours for our food, I thought I should. We ordered at 6:10pm, arrived at 8:05pm. Nearly 2 hours later! We were not notified that the order would be late until I contacted the China Cottage to check why our order was late. The food arrived, albeit hot but very bland and hardly any taste at all. Chicken balls were burnt, crispy chilli beef was not the slightest bit spicy (advised spicy on the menu), and the chop suey was awful. It was more of a slime than a sauce. Really unhappy.

My favourite Chinese. Excellent food and fast delivery!

Fabulous hot & fresh food, really tasty

Food is brilliant still boiling when it turns up

Food was delivered early , hot and the food was great , will definitely use again.

Worst food I’ve ever tasted will never order again

Food tastes good, not a lot of it for the price which is disappointing. My order has come wrong a few times, or something has been missing. When you ring back up and try to explain, they aren't very interested in helping you come to a solution. But it does depend on what staff are in as some of them are very helpful. The food does come quickly and hot which is good. Overpriced for what you receive as its mostly filled with sauce or rice with little meat/fillings as it saves money filling up containers with cheaper items.

Super friendly staff, food came on time and it was warm (perfect not to hot to eat) will definitely order again

Delivery was fast, no complaints there. Chicken balls were overcooked to the point where the batter was rock hard, greasy and the chicken "snapped". Prawn crackers were soft and tasted damp, both were inedible.

Ordered spring rolls and chicken balls received

Lovely food. really good quality. quick delivery definitely recommend

I thought I’d give it another but wish I hadn’t tbh , such bland food , not authentic home flavours just standard basic Chinese that you could buy and heat at home from the supermarket ! Not worth the money at all , won’t be ordering again sorry

Great food taste, quality and still hot! My luck is, earlier is always better other than the day it arrived 50 minutes early and no one else was home yet. No ones fault, I'd definitely still order again and early delivery is still welcome!

Food was amazing, delivered 20 mins faster than the delay time, clean plates all around

(DONT EAT FROM HERE) I Ordered my food and it did not come as described. when I called to complain I was spoken to like dirt and they would not send out the replacement meal or send a refund . I will never eat from here ever again and I will also tell my friends and family all about there rubbish service and cold soggy food .. (DONT EAT FROM HERE)

Food was awful . Sent me the wrong sauces on the wrong meals ! The boss spoke to me like rubbish after rang to sort out my order and they would not send refund or replace my meal .I will never eat from here again or use just eat services again as your response is as bad .

****DONT EAT HERE **** Food is diabolical Sloppy & greasy noodles lukewarm hard rice Can't eat get a order correct Food come with the wrong sauces on the wrong meals I rang to complain expecting to receive a replacement meal and was spoken to like rubbish I would never ever eat here again It's a dive !!

Everything was lovely fresh and hot

The food arrived late but was a Friday night so it’s to be expected, the door was really tasty and all of us really enjoyed our meal. Thanks :)

Very nice. Prawn balls were amazing, freshly cooked and not dry or greasy. Def order again

Lovely food a shame about half my soup ending up in the bag!

Me and my kids loved the food it was really nice

First time I've ordered from there as my usual place was shut. Won't be going back, food was ok at best.

delicious food every time 5 star

Chips and food was warm unusual too previous deliveries very disappointed

nice food never had a problem and i've ordered a few times

always order from here, always pleased with food

Excellent food excellent service

Was sssstarrrrrving so appreciated the earlier delivery, food was banging👌

As always, amazing from ordering to delivery to dinning.

Top quality food !! Always perfect. Service is amazing.

Food was good, just not better than we’ve had from others, probably a personal taste thing

Haven’t had a Chinese in a very long time and I tell you what… it was amazing! So fresh, so delicious I could have eaten it all again! Thanks guys for the smashing food

Delivery was early, but not a problem for us. Always great service from them, thank you.

Amazing service!!! My favourite

We ordered our food and it felt like it was only five minutes ago and we had the delivery driver knocking on the door but to be honest to food was amazing but the beef in the Curry was just abit to cooked but other then that one of the best Chinese curry’s that we have had and we have had a lot of Chinese curry’s

Always lovely food from here. Great food, fast delivery and lovely people. 10/10

The food was really nice so I will be ordering from there again 😋

The king prawn balls were very small and slightly over cooked compared to resent orders

arrived within 15 mins all hot and fresh

The sweet and sour sauce was actually cyclamen colour due to excessive food colourings, also tasted like salty starch. Additionally, the restaurant charged me an extra £3 after accepting my order because they think that my address was too far from the restaurant. First of all, you should have checked it before accepting my order, secondly if 11 min-drive is too far then you should reconsider the delivery charge in the first place. Cardiff is not London where you can find a takeaway at every corner.

Ordered food 7:00 got it at 7:20 food was cold and tasted awful like they just chucked it in the box and send it off, never received any prawn crackers food was just abysmal

Chicken and sweetcorn soup was terrible, VERY SWEET, ridiculously sweet. Phoned restaurant and to be fair eventually they replaced the soups, but I'm not sure what the chef is using as their soup is so much sweeter than any of the other takeaways, and I've tried alot. Everything else was lovely.

My go to for ordering. Always early & they always listen to my requests. We get chicken chow mein, chicken fried rice. Curry sauce. Sweet and sour chicken balls too. All delicious! Piping hot and so much food we have the next day too.

Food was lovely and tasteful. Shame it wasn’t that little bit hotter upon arrival

Excellent service, are a bit expensive now but isn’t everywhere

Always good food, very tasty and hot !

Thoroughly enjoyed, food hot, flavourful and delivery right on time. Prawn crackers were quite broken into pieces. Would definitely order again!

Lovely meal again. Delivered really quickly and piping hot . Thank you

Ordered and 20 mins later it was here. Was first in que :) food was hot, specifically what I asked for and delicious.

Food tasted really good and not too salty or oily

We had some Chinese Sunday and my sister woke up feeling very unwell and went to the doctors and turned out she had gotten FOOD POISONING this is disgusting this shop NEEDS to be shut down and has very very bad service

Always really nice from here. Super fast delivery too. Cheaper than most on here but the quality is just as good.

Excellent food and fast delivery. Thank you

Food was dry the roast duck chow mien was fat and chewy. No flavours in food.

Food was delicious and piping hot when it arrived. It also arrived 15 mins early which was great for us, we received a text message advising that the good was on its way

beautiful Chinese! Delicious & we haven’t tasted a Chinese this good in a while, quality is there, taste is on point, delivery was speedy & very polite😍🔥🍲

Best Chinese in Ely always orders from here lovely food, always hot and 9 times out of 10 always early with delivery

Food was so tasty and really hot. Excellent service and lovely food
