We bought a takeaway at the Brixton chopsticks because we were so tired from working. We thought we would treat ourselves. Unfortunately we didn’t treat ourselves. It was awful hardly any meat and tasteless. I didn’t eat mine in the end. I just doubled up on dessert I had a tiramisu, which was delicious. I would not recommend chopsticks.

Got takeaway, absolutely disgusting. Ordered duck in black bean sauce, and god knows what it was. It had black beans in it but slightly red sauce. It was awful. Not cheap either and then they charge 50 pence for debit card charge and £1.50 for delivery! Only went to this place as they take card.

Terrible service, ordered via Uber Eats using my husbands NHS code (£10 off) and the order should’ve been delivered between 8:25-8:45pm. At 8:55pm were informed the order has been cancelled. Purposely waited to order a meal together after work and now we’re left with no dinner on Boxing Day. Not to mention I’m pregnant so extremely unhappy having no dinner on Boxing Day!

Ordered from the first time from Chopsticks via Just Eat. Initial issue as I selected 20:15 and delivery man turned up an hour early as I was leaving my house. No problem, I called restaurant, they were really accommodating at sending driver back and a fresh order came at the time requested. Food was delicious, and we'll be ordering again.

Waited 1 hour 40 mins for a delivery. When I called to find out why, they didn’t seem to care land offered no apology. Food was average. They use a lot of salt to increase flavour instead of using the ingredients. Not the sign of a good restaurant. Better and cheaper restaurants in the area

Myself and my girlfriend have been odering take away from this restaurant for a few years now. Hornchurch and Elm Park have an abundance of take aways, and we've tried about 7 Chinese restaurants locally, settling on Chopsticks a few years ago. The food just tastes fresher, cleaner, and the flavours are deeper and rich. The portion size is very good too. You do pay slightly over average I suppose but for an extra couple of pounds you get more enjoyment and less of the greasy junk food feeling. It's quality Chinese food. If you like sweet dishes then I highly recommend the Fruity Mandarin Ribs, and Garlic Chilli Chicken/Prawns. If you like more savoury dishes then the Chicken Curry, Beef and Black Bean, Chicken with Mushroom, Salt and Pepper Prawns are delicious. So too is the Duck and Hoisin Sauce. Also can't get enough of the scallops. The staff are nice too and the restaurant has a pleasant vibe if you're eating in. They also deliver till quite late which is great for shift workers (or when stumbling out of the pub!). I'd be very surprised if you found a Chinese locally that is as good. You should definitely try your favourite dish from here.

Just got home and tried to eat this food. The chicken in the sweet and sour chicken dish was definitely not chicken, and the rest of the dishes might as well been a bag of salt. Two thirds have gone in the bin. Will never eat from there again AWFUL FOOD

Used to come here often but since the man left it changed. Not been for a year so thought we would try it.... good/average food , but bad service, no smiles, no manners, just glum faces. Will be another year till we try again

Wow, what a lovely experience. Staff attentive and helpful. Came here with family and friends and ordered a shared platter, very meaty ribs, plenty of prawns on the prawn toast. The main portions were huge, ordered dim sum too which was fresh and hot. Value for money and very clean and tidy restaurant. Well worth the money. Wasn't rushed at all by the staff.

Went last Saturday evening early doors and wasn’t disappointed. Food was very nice and well presented . The place wasn’t busy as it was early but the staff were very good. They also got wind it was Johns birthday and kindly bought him out a small cake with candles . Would recommend. Prices reasonable too

Ordered a take away which came in about half an hour which was good. That’s about as far as it goes for compliments. Quarter duck must have been taken from a duckling - tiny and not even bothered to shred it. Left in a foil bag so skin was soft. Noodles - was actually hard to find any noodles in amongst the bean sprouts. Ordered the scallop in black bean. Scallops chopped into tiny pieces and when we put them together it looked like there was only 2 baby scallops in the entire dish. I won’t spoil the review by naming other restaurants but there are so many other local Chineses that beat this hands down all I can say is that I will not order from here again. Very disappointing and nearly £20 a head for a take away.

Ordered takeaway from here twice for myself and a vegetarian friend. First time we ordered veg chow mien and it came with chunks of chicken in it. Second time we ordered Mock Duck (and even got the lady on the phone to confirm it was MOCK duck, as per the menu) and TWO HOURS LATER, real duck turns up. This place has resulted in my vegetarian friend eating meat TWICE. Avoid.

We have eaten in the restaurant before and whilst it is not very fancy the food is very good and the service was good as well. This was during the week and we were the only people in the restaurant.

Estoy muy contenta de haberlo probado este restaurante pequeño. Michael, el director (o el dueño? ) no podría ser más amable o servicial. Están realmente dispuestos a adaptar el menú, es decir, opción vegetariana, etc., y la comida es deliciosa. Realmente estoy sorprendido de ver...

We ate at Chopsticks in South Kensington. The food was cooked on site and the portions were very big, I can understand the reason because they are trying to give away the food. We were unable to finish the food, we took it with us but the smell was so always we had to empty the food in the bin. The food is tasteless and disgusting. I cannot belief this is a chain considering how terrible the food is. The cost of 4 meals in a box cost over 20 pounds. It was a complete waste of money. We had to go to a proper restaurant to eat real food. If you enjoy your food don't bother going to this establishment.

New manager with vast improvements. Atmosphere is fantastic, food is equally of high standard. I would recommend visiting during the week as the manager really has time to make you feel at home, and often comes to talk to you. He makes a real effort to get to know all of his customers.

Ordered take away. Still hadn't arrived after one hour and 10 minutes. When I rang back they said they delivered to the wrong addresses and they had apparently paid for it. Said they would re-deliver, when arrived almost 2 hours later from ordering the order was wrong and the noodles were burnt. Very disappointed and will not be ordering or visiting again.

We visited Chopsticks last night to see what appeared to be new owners and staff, it took 20 minutes to order drinks, considering the place was only half full the service just got worse.One hour twenty five minutes for the starters to arrive, then another forty five minutes for the next course, then the head guy came and asked us what we had ordered for our main course as the new waiter had messed our order up, then eventually we got our main course.An old problem which the last owners never put right was the heating, the tables near the door and window are simply freezing and we sat there wearing our coats, until we insisted they moved us.During all the waiting there was a constant flow of take away and delivered meals leaving the restaurant, this was the problem and a point we made to the staff, the diners in the restaurant were being made to wait because of this.Overall the food was really nice, but we only popped in for a quick bite to eat and were left waiting for nearly three hours, just not acceptable at all.Will not be returning.

This is such a lovely find, I think a lot of people think this restaurant is just a takeaway, but there are a few tables and the service and welcoming atmosphere is second to none! The prices are really good for two of us a full set meal (crispy duck yum) and a bottle of pinot grigo and unlimited coffee only £56.00. I would really recommend this restaurant.

Normally get our Chinese take away from here. Never again spent 1 hour on phone justing ringing. Went and ordered food direct, which was not very hot, extremely disappointed as I say gone down hill, tasted just like a bad Chinese , no taste. And not the cheapest of Chinese's but tasted as bad. While waiting for my food I did hear somebody in the restraunt complaining that there food was cold.

Having tried most of the Chinese takeaways in the area, we've settled on this one for pure quality of the food, the vast & varied menu selection and speed of delivery. So having had a fair few 'takeaways', we decided to visit the Restaurant for a meal. A BIG mistake ! This is only a small place with seating for around 36 people, and was full. All the time the takeaway side was a constant stream of people coming in for, or delivery drivers taking out orders.Please don't get me wrong, but if your looking for a efficient serviced restaurant, this is not for you. If you have plenty of time and enjoy great food, then go for it.We will continue using this establishment, but for delivery only

This Chinese restaurant is almost hidden behind a row of cars parked on the pavement at night but it is just a few yards from the Mecca Bingo hall which years ago was a cinema. The entrance is dominated by the takeaway area, but it also has a reasonably large restaurant too. The menu is amazingly large containing almost every imaginable variation of Chinese food. There are also some Malaysian and Thai varieties. When I was there a few months ago we were served by a very polite and friendly Malay Chinese lady named Catherine and when I went with several friends last week there was a chatty Vietnamese lady who made us feel welcome although it was almost closing time. We had giant spring rolls with sweet chili sauce for starters and then noodle or curry dishes for the main.We also had a beer each. It came to £15 per person and the servings were large.They are definitely not stingy with the portions here and I recommend it as a good place to go after a few beers. The beers available here include Asahi from Japan, Tiger from Singapore and also some Thai beers all of which are good quality. Service is very efficient and friendly. Only improvement would be to brighten up the interior of the restaurant as it is a little gloomy in decor.
