China Garden in Torbay

Cant recommend this place enough !! Always service with a smile , not a long wait and food always on point 🔥🙌 Highly recommend the Malaysian curry and Singapore fried rice ❤️

Ordered on a Friday, and payday, so there was a slight delay to my delivery but the food was hot and tastes so good! My favourite in the area!

Food took a long time to arrive but I think Uber eats are to blame for this. Other than that one of the best Chinese I’ve had in a long time definitely the best chicken balls in the bay and the chillie lamb dish was amazing

The best ever salt and pepper chips, nicest takeaway, very nice people and great service, we always go back to this particular Chinese :-)

food was very tasty definitely ordering again

Great food, big portions enjoyed by the whole family. Stayed hot despite the distance travelled. Would order again.

Food was really hot and lovely

Absolutely disgusting. I was served by a genuine kid, prob 10 or 11 and in fairness he was polite enough but I twice made speciations about my order, at the start and to reiterate at the end and it still came wrong. On top of that the meat (well what little there was of it) was cold so not warmed through enough and it didn’t even look like chicken. Tried to eat it but it makes me feel ill so I’ll bin it. Just try anywhere else!

Said my food has been delivered and it is not here

Sorry , i know it was New Years Eve, it was not very good

Food was absolutely DIRE. Everything tasted dry and old. Sauce was too vinegary and the crispy beef was like an old leather strap. never again

nice food , good delivery time

Driver was nice, a little late. Food was trash though had a few bites, and binned it. Bland, not sure if it was chicken. Slimey.

Singapore fried rice and chow mein EXCELLENT. Always delicious and great service

Not happy as food was never collected but you’ve still marked it as collected I rang up and said I wouldn’t be able to collect at 4:50pm because I had something important come up so I asked it to be moved on for 6pm but was still extremely busy so I would like a refund for the order that I didn’t get.

Excelleng food very tasty and delivered very early and was scorching hot

excellent food and super fast delivery

Had a takeaway from here Sunday night. Food was perfect quick delivery

Had a takeaway for 3. Excellent. Really good quality.

missing items from set menu the chicken balls were burnt

Ordered a Chinese tonight, the driver couldn't find our address. When he called the 2nd time started getting lippy with the wife. When it finally got here 25 minutes late it was stone cold & inedible. Never Again & the owners wasn't much help, well it was hot when it went out. Yes but 25 minutes late. But it was hot when we sent it out. Well Done China Garden ((( NOT )))

Portions are massive and tasty

Great food, always hot, I’m a regular so I definitely order again 🙂👍

Just ordered a cheese omelette off the menu as I'm a vegetarian. When the food was delivered I discovered the omelette had chicken in it. We phoned up to see if they could refund or offer another one. Their response was we should have order a plain omelette instead of the cheese one as they put chicken in the cheese one. Not very helpful, out of pocket and hungry. Nowhere in the menu did it state the cheese omelette had chicken in. Will not be ordering again. I have now found out it also has pork in!!

my curry unfortunately was not great. but I will try something different.

If I could give this place 0 stars I absolutely would! Their food has given me food poisoning. I tried ringing up to make a complaint and warn them! She tried saying it’s not food poisoning and shouting at me down the phone!!

Absolutely appalled by the treatment of customers and negligence of food and health safety. My mum, vegetarian of 40 years, ordered a cheese omelette obviously believing it was just cheese and egg as stated on the menu, only to discover they put chicken in it too! Then after complaining, we are given no refund, no remake and no remorse.£7.90 to go hungry and violate her dietary requirement?? Disgusting. I wouldn’t eat here if my life depended on it.

Yes, we placed an order from teignmouth and the restaurant is in Torquay but our food was originally predicted to be delivered between 6:40-7:15 and when it got to 7:30 we called the restaurant and were told it would be with us by 7:55 and they told us about problems with the drivers car breaking down, we understood and waited, when our food was finally delivered at 8:40 everything was stone cold and not enjoyable in the slightest, not happy for a £50 takeaway!

food was lovely and very friendly, happy staff. from Mrs B

Amazing always so on it and polite and cooked so well

The food was awful the beef was solid and the rise was way over cooked

Great delivery driver, very polite and friendly

First time ordering and was lovely food, thank you

great food,delivered early and friendly driver. will be ordering again thanks.lee

Absolutely disgusting. Should have read reviews before ordering

Wrong order arrived. 2 1/2 hours later from ordering I finally get the correct order.

food was soggy half of it was cold

Delicious hot food had a few orders with them and they have always been good

The salt and pepper chicken was really nice the right amount of spice for good flavour without being over baring This lead to to sweet and sour chicken balls thay was just a ball of batter with a tiny bit of chicken I ordered the BBQ sauce and that just tasted like bisto gravey not what I expected at all and to top it off thay where over done To sum it up exerlent food or worse than Tesco frozen section

wrong items delivered, driver moved so fast I couldn't tell him, restaurant wouldn't answer the phone. won't be ordering from here again

Ordered from here off uber eats and never again will we order from here. Food was over cooked waaaaay too salty (I get Chinese is salty but this was ridiculous) none of it tasted fresh and just overall rubbish. Very expensive too

food was very poor all sauce no meat and basically went straight in the bin.. would advise anyone to go elsewhere for your food.

second time ordering and the foods been great on both occasions

Some of the food was cold when arrived the other food was only just edible as it was like warm

Very good! Came a lot earlier than expected

The order was late. Plus the fried mushrooms were really soft and did not taste nice. Including the mushroom rice…not up to standard.

food arrived early and hot, was really tasty and we'll definitely order again.Thanks guys!

Really quick, piping hot and everything tasted really fresh. will definitely choose them again!

Delivered on time. All the food was piping hot and tasted delicious, no complaints whatsoever.

The food is delicious, the portions are big, and the food is fast. I highly recommend it.

The oil these items were cooked in appears to be burnt. All items were black and smelt rancid.

food was tasty and good quality. the sweet a sour sauce on the the other hand needs changing

spent 47 pounds and still have 42 pounds to go in the bin, duck dry and must have been very small as the quater I had was tiny ,the curry looked vile and tasted as it looked , if i had the time and room to pick everything I ordered apart i would but i have to go home today !avoid like the plague !!!!!!!!!!!!!

the food was tasteless and oily, items missing also from delivery, which didn't matter in the end as it all wen in the bin.

Tasted lovely and arrived early

We have been looking for a decent Chinese takeaway for ages. So decided to ignore the bad reviews and take a chance. Really glad we did. Food was hot and tasty. The flavours were delicious and rice fluffy. So glad we tried on a whim as this will now be our go to Chinese takeaway.

Over cooked wings and ribs, very dry. Hopefully a one off as previously really yummy

Delivered one hour early - so I apologise to the delivery driver for not being ready - but we're always happy to receive the food early!!! The stir fry with veg and cashews was good. Tofu and mushrooms was VERY VERY hard and almost too chewy to eat. And, let's be honest - that 'crispy seaweed' has never even sniffed the sea!!! - I think it was just fried kale smothered in sugar! Not good, not good AT ALL. I can't say I recommend this restaurant food, sorry.

Disgusting food! Poorly managed. Rude. No time management. There is much better places to get your food from. Could be waiting hours! Avoid!!

That was the worst Chinese I've ever had in my life. I ordered a chicken curry with fried rice. The chicken was slimy with no taste and the whole curry was full of chunks/quarters of onions. My son had a chicken fried rice and his chicken was over cooked and very dry. Only good thing about it was the prawn crackers. I will never go again and would not recommend this place.

ordered special curry. curry was runny. the meat was chewy China garden special rice meat chewy and covered with juice over the rice. sorry to say but I won't be coming back for seconds. worse curry I had for many a year. not worth the money

Just picked up a take away, None of the food is freshly cooked it's all reheated, rock hard and deep fried. Don't recommend was disgusting.

Ordered on Uber so don’t know if that makes a difference to what they supply. Ordered duck and mushrooms plus sweet & sour chicken balls and chips. The duck was so overcooked it tasted like beef. Came with loads of large half cooked onions plus 3 carrots although the mushrooms were nice. Chicken balls contained dry over cooked chicken. The chips were white, half cooked and cold

Food took 2.5 hours to come, rice was stuck together and sloppy, missed 2 items off my order and refused to refund me!

food was over an hour late & stone cold won't be using again

When I rang to query order the restaurant said they hadn’t received any order even though money had left my account. Then order arrived with wrong items in it .

Absolutely terrible service we ordered at 6pm and we waited to the very last time they gave us and it never came! What made it worse was the restaurant was permanently on user busy (feel like they left the phone off the hook) We had to go somewhere else and paid all that money! Shocking don’t order from them at all

At first just eat said it would arrive at 8:25pm (ordered food @ 7:25pm) just eat updated to then say delivery would be between 8:50-9:10. Food still hasn’t arrived over 2 hours from ordering food. Just eat have said it’s arrived and to enjoy my food but they can’t happen as it hasn’t arrived!

The delivery took an hour and a half to turn up and when it did it was wrong. Then took another 40 mins on top of that to be delivered correctly. Food was good just a bit too salty.

lovely food lots of meat really tasty,will deffo be ordering again!

Noodles tasted slimy, chicken balls were hard and sauce did not smell like nice, only ate the egg fried rice Will not order from there again

Food was poor, didn’t appear to be fresh at all, also waited ages for delivery, won’t ever be returning here again.

Absolutely lovely! The food was amazing and delivery so very prompt

Always the best Chinese, won’t order from anywhere else. Great tofu options and always perfect delivery.

The second time we've ordered from this restaurant recently. The food was excellent on both occasions. Distinctive flavours from all dishes we ordered. Containers filled to the brim. The orders were delivered way before the estimated delivery time, which was actually an hour or more. Definitely a plus in my opinion. We've tried many other Chinese restaurants in Torquay over the past 8 years, The China Garden is easily the best. Consistent in quality and service. Highly recommended!

Quality of food was poor. Chicken balls was dry and overcooked and not enough sweet and sour sauce. The Thai beef curry was stodgy nothing like a Thai curry. Beef chow mein was dry and unappealing. Overall for the price, we were left unsatisfied and disappointed. We won’t be returning.

Def not worth the money, wont be using them again

1st time using this Chinese takeaway but it won't be the last it was lovely and delivery was great and food still hot thanks

Best Chinese I’ve eaten in a long time.. food was piping hot and very tasty.. would highly recommend

Average food. Forgot one of our dishes but did deliver it 15 mins after the initial delivery which is good customer service

Arrived much earlier than expected and tastes delicious

It was very good good time nice food

The order turned up on time, and it was hot. The downside bbq sauce was tastless and I ordered chicken chow mien and got beef instead, the beef was horrible. Not sure if I'll order again

Never used here before but it’s the nicest Chinese I’ve had a in a long time , will be using now my new favourite

Awful food. Want my money back it was that bad!

Found us and that’s unusual, really good guy, food perfect and loads of it

Great food and delivered on time…for New Years Eve this was spot on. Thanks

Friendly delivery and very fast but it just tasted bland and very sweet. Didn’t finish or enjoy and never had a problem with taste before. Won’t order again

Food was hot and tasty apart from the chips which was a little overcooked. Delivery time was 2 hours but it was ok as it was Christmas eve .

2hours late but only get the option to leave 60 min late maximum. food tasteless , cold and inedible …. Easily worst Chinese the 10 of us have had.

Excellent food. It arrived exactly on time and was really hot too. Definitely recommended!

Food was disgusting and very salty

Some of the beef was still pink 😞

Beautiful food hot and generous portions. Would definitely order again.

Happy with my order . Thank you

Awesome service as usual, best chinese in the area.

First time using this takeaway and I am very impressed. Delivered earlier than stated, rang on arrival as requested, really good quality food. Will order again

Food was cold!!! Poor quality.

Fantastic service, food fresh and hot!

Excellent quality food. Lovely flavours. Arrived on time and was very hot. Definitely recommended.
