China Kitchen in Neath Port Talbot

First try of this place tonight after a recommendation and the last time we will be too. £35 when another local Chinese is usually £24 for exactly the same order, food was bland, salt and pepper chicken was really chewy and it didn’t even come with prawn crackers after spending that either. Staff seemed nice enough but I don’t recommend the Chinese food here

Great meal with excellent service

chips are now sold in boxes so serving size is not as generous as when they were just wrapped. nice enough tho. prices are about average for a chippy. not tried the chinese menu so cant comment on that

Was spoken to very inappropriately by a staff member after querying total cost of meal. Will not be returning after being a customer for twenty years. Also the food is nowhere near as nice as it used to be.

Love it nice chips big fish nice people

Nice chips and curry sauce (although nowhere near enough of the latter). Ribs and chow mein weren't great, both in watery puddles of liquid. Happy Wok, Golden Dragon and Shun Da far nicer.

Always loved the food here but our last meal was bland rubbish special curry in bin so that was 4 months ago tried again tonight special curry that too ended up in the bin whatever happened to the chef .this place has really let itself go not going there anymore

First time ordering here and enjoyed it more than usual one we go to. Prawn dishes really lovely.We will be back!!!

Food is beautiful, expensive though

A basic order for a fried rice chips and BBQ sauce somehow become fried rice, chips and curry sauce. Very basic mistake yet when phoning up to correct issues told I'd need to go back to collect and order. Chicken curry and rice was very good though. Also no delivery available.

Had Singapore chow main no meat only a few prawns

Sometimes I phone an order through on this occasion I called in and ordered at the counter. Food was quickly prepared and served . The chicken curry was great and their chips were proper chips not thin frozen ones

We’ve been going to the china kitchen for many, many years. The food has always been very good, we’ve never had any problems. However, last night, it was awful. Completely tasteless, not much meat, but large chunks of something that looked like lumps of fat. Food was cold and we only live 3 minutes away. Poppadoms were soft and chips were hard and dry. VERY VERY disappointed. Can’t see us returning any time soon. Should have actually taken it back, instead it went in the bin

Well went here tonight thought I have a change from happy wok, sorry now as potion size small, food not that tasty , chicken was that processed stuff . Won’t be going there again not even if it was free.

Great service,great food....friendly staff...

Not impressed with the food, chicken balls were overcooked and dry, chips were dry, large chips didn't even cover a small, poppadoms were soft .. won't be back anytime soon. Staff were friendly and food was served quickly but no good if food is rubbish

Always have nice food here, been eating here over 13 years and still nice and my burger and chips were lovely and fresh.

Favourite Chinese by far, chips are lush. Everything is fresh and flavourful

Nice food. Very busy but worth the wait

Love this Chinese takeaway Staff are great Food is great Never a complaint when I order

Best chip shop and Chinese in the area easily tasty food and big portions.

Good service friendly staff and good food and reasonable price

Good food always been going here for over 30 years

Used to love this place a couple years ago however now Only one word for it… vile! Such a shame. £5-6 more expensive than our usual Chinese and definitely not worth it!! Chicken balls were literally dripping in grease, the curry was watery and the whole thing tasted dirty. It all went in the bin after a few mouthfuls and both myself and my partner feel sick (think that’s the grease) Highly disappointed, won’t be ordering again 🤢

Food is decent, portions of chips are huge. Can be on the expensive side of takeaway food

The best Chinese arround. I just wish they delivered

Been going there for over 30 yrs,best Chinese in port talbot

Best chips around ... BEST barbecue sauce Ever

Excellent food, good portions and the staff are polite.

Always good food been using this takeaway for years.

First time customer last night and last time customer. Had a beef curry and it was disgusting, the curry sauce was very watery, bland and didn't taste like curry sauce. The beef was like chewing fat!! So much better In the area.

Excellent quality and good value Chinese and English food

Always top food, been having food from Mrs Lee from the first day she opened 👍👍👍

Excellent Chinese and chipshop food at a good price . One of the few Chinese takeaways that do proper chips

I visited China Kitchen for the first time this week. I’m a vegetarian. They had no vegetable chow mein on the menu, so I had a Chinese vegetable curry. It was completely tasteless and bland. I can’t imagine that the Chef would ever eat this food in her/ his own house...It wasn’t cheap either. Will be giving this take away a wide berth in future...

Great food. Best Chinese in Port Talbot

Ordered food and was not the best we had for a Chinese takeaway. One of the dishes we ordered was a house special chow mein...there was nothing special about it, rather bland, and £2.00 for a tiny carton of curry sauce 😳 scandalous! And we were all literally still hungry an hour later after we are it! And when we went to pick up our order, me and a couple of other customers were waiting more than 10 minutes because a local decided to have a catch up chat with the woman who was serving... so here's a tip ... Catch up on your own time woman! Not during a busy serving time.

I have eaten from this establishment for years. Never had a bad meal from them so I am wary of any reviews I see claiming this. The food is excellent and while its true that its not cheap. You get what you pay for. Friendly staff and good service. Also take credit card which is handy. Would reccomend this establishment to anyone.

Lovely food everytime, shame they don't deliver.

Absolutely lovely food highly recommended

Best chinese in port talbot love the curry

Tried this place after not being for years, can not believe how much it has changed! WAY overpriced compared to other Chinese's, food was mediocre at best and the chips barely edible, soft, under cooked and soggy. Will NOT be going there again....

Didn't understand one thing we was saying gravy tastes like rat poison and chips taste uncooked

Fabulous food and huge portions

These used to be the best Chinese around but things have changed drastically. Food has gone terrible. The curry sauce doesn't taste the same, battered chicken balls are like slime and the sweet and sour sauce its different everytime I get it, its either thick or running.

Staff are a bit slow food is expensive for take away

I have a Gluten Intolerance, so making sure what I eat is not cross contaminated with other food or ingredients is a health issue. I usually express this to staff. I am fine eating Chicken Fried Rice and Chips. But I always make my Gravy at home, so that I have no issue with ingredients or cross contamination.

Chips are always Disgusting from here!!! Because they mix afternoon chips with the fresh ones 😕

Prawn crackers ,yesterday s soon you add anything to them like rubber

You will NEVER find a curry as good as these. I've been going here for over 30 years.

Gutted, drove all the way from Pontardulais for my usual favorite, got home and had the wrong order.

It's hit and miss. Some times the food is lovely, other times it's awful. Today was the awful day. Tasteless, dry and the chips looked and tasted like they had been sat in the fryer for hours.

Lovely Chinese but rather expensive 1 meal and rice was over £10

Always the best chippy/Chinese and have been for 30+ years.

The best Chinese in Port Talbot by a mile, they don't deliver so only reason for four stars.

Always service with a smile and good portions.

Lovley food, clean and you can see the kitchen , had chicken fried rice, soft noodles with chips and curry sauce, one order enough for two people, friendly staff.

This really is the best place for a Chinese in port talbot, always hot and fresh. Chip shop side isn't treat soggy chips and the customer service is even worse. Such a shame as it spoils the experience when the staff are miserable and rude. My recommendation, remind your staff about basic front of house skills and start doing home deliveries

Lovely food here, great takeaway

Good food and friendly helpful staff.

Chips are not as nice as they used to be. The staff seem generally rushed and slightly miserable. The chicken curry is still lovely.

Had a Chinese as the one we normally go to doesn't open on a Tuesday - what a bad mistake that was wish we had stayed home and had beans on toast!!!! The prices were a joke unfortunately on us, I thought being out of town it would be cheaper how wrong I was it was much more expensive. Portions are small, you don't get the usual free prawn crackers as you do from most takeaways, the curry was just processed chicken in normal chip shop curry sauce. Don't waste your money or time going to this place, stay at home and have anything else as it will be much better. Plus to top it all I have never seen such rude staff these 2 women need a lesson in customer services...

Not even close to being the best Chinese takeaway in Port Talbot

Food is always good , a great take away just off Victoria road ,a great atmosphere and the food both chinese and chip shop items are always great

Polite and friendly great food a day service

You’re always guaranteed a tasty take away from here. I often recommend China Kitchen to friends as it’s one of the best Chinese’s in Port Talbot!

Fab takeaway every other weekend, always fresh and plenty of it, quite reasonably priced and the ladies serving are lovely

Food very nice but they don't deliver

Food is always fresh and the staff are always helpfull and friendly.

I had a chipbutty and curry sauce and there was a few chips on there disgusting sort yourself out

Good food though it is the most expensive Chinese takeaway in Port Talbot.

Average food, quick friendly service.

This is, by far, the best Chinese takeaway I have ever been to. I have never had a bad meal from here.

Called here 2 weeks or so ago for a special curry on a Tuesday evening. There was nothing special about it. Portions were very small compared to other Chinese food in the area. Curry sauce was very little and very very bland. Who put chopped and shaped ham into a curry? The chips were nicely cooked, and that is the only positive thing I can say. Customer service was also poor. Had a bit of a discussion with a member of staff on social media, (not the person who served me) Her final comment was... 'so what if he had a bad meal, not the end of the world is it?' Needless to say I will never go back.

It as got to be the best Chinese takeaway in Port Talbot, it,s a bit more expensive than others, but the quality of their food is worth it. The staff are also very helpful.

This is the best Chinese take away in Port Talbot ! The chips are chip-shop style. Apart from that the food is very good !

A great Chinese takeaway very clean .The food is great the chips are lovely and you get plenty.

Any take away that serves raw chicken in its meals deserves a zero rating.

Got my order wrong charged me again for item they forgot and x 50p for paying on my card twice and blamed me shocking service to top it off got home and they forgot to put in my order useless

Bit expensive but always good food

Best ake away curry in Port Talbot. Food is absolutely delicious prompt service whether phoned orders or just calling in. Just wish they had a delivery service.

had many a take away from here, proper chips served with chineese meals and all the usual chippy foods available aswell as vegitarian

Good food and nice staff, been going to this chip shop sins I was little and food always been nice..

Our local Chinese, very clean and friendly staff. Food is the best around. We eat here very often and are always pleased.

Question ? Hungry eat food right . This is a good takeaway the only Chinese in Port Talbot that don't deliver, why because it's the best around people go to them.

La Cocina China es una de las joyas de Port Talbot. Comida de calidad con muy siempre trabajadoras, amables dueños están dispuestos a satisfacer sus necesidades de alimentación.

Fast and cheap food, with great chips !

Literalmente no vayas a ningún otro sitio para China y, aunque me gusta Franco, China Cocina tiene mejores patatas fritas durante unos 50 kilómetros.

A small local pub with loads of character close to town centre. Parking a little difficult but if you want a good pint give it a go.

The best and longest established Chinese takeaways in Port Talbot serving great typical fish shop food together with chinese dishes. Always served by friendly staff, and the food is alway hot & tasty...keep up the good work

One of the longest time established Chinese food takeaways in Port Talbot, lovely British food too, chips, sausage, pies etc. Great friendly service.

Whether its chippy tea we are fancying or chinese, we always choose China Kitchen! Nice size portions, great price and very friendly staff! 10/10

Never had a bad meal and great sized portions, always great staff. Not a fancy Chinese but never left wanting

We have used this takeaway for years and it justs get betterwe have eaten all kinds of Chinese food from there, as well as fish ,pies rissoles,etc it has always been top standard,recommended for a good takeaway.

This was a great takeout. It certainly was not gourmet but the portions were generous, it was well cooked and very tasty. There was not a single dish I did not enjoy. the crisy beef was fantastic. the scallops and shrimp cooked to perfection. The chow mien was some of the best I have had In Wales and I could go on. We ordered over thirty dishes. it was a large group. Everything arrived hot and well packaged. It really was good. I will go back there the next time in Wales for sure

Our first time ordering from here. Safe to say it is the best Chinese takeaway around the town!! Order ready extremely quickly to pick up too. Thank you.

Sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong style does it get any better than that...chips are definitely best in town probably best in County possibly best in wales

We had a great meal from here to take back to our Best Western as we do not always want to eat out with the dog. Great value good cooked food quickly.

Been eating here for years is one of the best chinese in the town. Always freshly cooked and quick service and the lady owner is fantastic, really friendly and nearly always gives my daughter a fruit shoot

Good grub been goin there for over 20 years.thats why im over weight..lovely
