Dragons Den in Southend-on-Sea - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

food was lovely and hot too but just the portion sizes were not very good and no free prawn crackers

Those dry spare ribs i had to day basically melted in my mouth 🤤

pancake roll was just oil, the chips had sugar on and the Hong Kong style... awful 0/10

Food was early which is always a bonus. Salt & chilli chicken could’ve been crispier & the shredded beef was extra extra spicy so just a heads up!

driver very polite. food lovely and hot

great food and super fast delivery

I do love the fact they turn up sooner than the estimated time frame. Food was also delicious

No free prawns crackers even though we spent a lot :-(

Good food. Hot. Polite delivery. Bonus points for arriving early.

everything had leaked in the bag which ment my daughter couldn't eat any of it as everything was covered in curry sauce and wat to much oil

Absolutely faultless, many thanks

Food was delicious and somehow red hot for ages including the chips and chips never stay hot when delivered

Food is always great quality and delivered quickly, would highly recommend

bbq sauce is so tasty ...we had bbq ribs which fell off the bone ...beef fried rice which was great tasting and the prawn balls were delicious 😋

delivered super quick, delicious food great quality and enjoyed by all the family thank you

Chicken didn't taste like it was cooked properly

preordered before they opened, and got notification through as soon as they did. food came on time and was super yummy. everything cooked nicely and tasted good, and although portions aren't massive, they arent stingy either. Good quality and pleased with the prompt delivery.

Ordered from here the first time. Such delicious food. Everything had a taste. Thought we would try again but thought the first time was a one off but no it was just as good. Well done.

Regular customer. Ordered chicken chow mein, salt and chilli ribs, pancake roll and prawn crackers. Recommended.

main meals were lovely kung-po chicken beautiful but the banana fritters were rock hard not ripe totally inedible

I loved 🥰 Delicious 🤤 will order again soon 👌

Always order from dragons den and the food this time definitely wasn't at its best. Quite disappointing

Hello. We ordered at aprox 4:23pm and it arrived 19 minutes later at 4:42pm. The food surely could not of been cooked from fresh and packed and delivered in that time. And as someone who has personally just finished Food Hygiene Level 2 qualification I'm really skeptical about the quality and how food is prepared for consumption. Chicken balls - batter was cold inside and the chicken dry. Seaweed - dry. Chicken chow mein - Lukewarm Egg Fried Rice - dry and lukewarm. Roast Pork - I've not tried it. There is no way this meal could have been prepared freshly, and cooked fresh to the correct bacteria killing temperatures in the 19 minutes it arrived after the order.

Food was disgusting, no taste or flavour chicken balls so soggy food was cold

Chicken was rubbery and chicken balls where doughy. Rice was bland, over all disappointing.

Food was cold, rice was over cooked and the chow mein was disgusting! The Sweet and sour sauce was inedible to top it off!

Repeat customer. Ordered chicken chow mein, chilli ribs, prawn toast. Recommended.

Great food, arrived earlier than expected. Friendly delivery. Will definitely use again.

always delicious and arrives hot

Chicken balls were more chicken nugget size. Chips felt like they were from the previous day.

Absolutely the best Chinese around, we have tried many and this is by far the best .

Always so fast! Beautiful food

food was mostly cold and flavour wasnt great.

Lovely as always, but a little disappointed no tub of sweet and sour sauce with my prawn balls

Great as always. Curry sauce a bit hotter than usual but that’s a good thing 👍

This is 2nd time ordering from here. Both times food arrived earlier than stated and was nice and hot.

A regular customer to this Chinese. We have the chicken chow mein, special fried rice, any of the ribs are lovely too, spring onion and ginger chicken. Always a friendly delivery driver. Recommended.

Food yummy as always. Very confused when they turned up early guess we were first in queue for food 🤣🤣

Only a little late, but happy with meal

Really quick service. Food arrived piping hot and very yummy! Special shout out to helpful, kind driver. (I wish Just Eat would give us the opportunity to add a tip if we want to. Nobody keeps cash at home any more!) Thank you

Not used this take away for a number of years due change of ownership.. My normal takeaway was closed so thought I would give this a try... Prices seem good the staff friendly The meal house special chow mien was plentiful but was in to much sesame seed oil for me ...plenty of meat though..I will return to try a different meal

As always a lovely plentiful meal.

small portions , I ordered plain chow mein as I am a vegetarian was given chicken chow mein

I ordered a plain chow mein as I am a vegetarian and was given chicken chow mein

Regular customer. Great local Chinese. We order Mushroom chow mein, Chicken chow mein, prawn toast, ribs (salt and chilli). Recommended.

The Sweet & Sour Prawn Balls were disappointing. Batter inside was soggy & the prawns were tasteless. The Chicken Balls were slightly better. It seems as if they were cooked in a hurry. Rest of food was OK.

Im so happy for the soup ive been poorly for a few weeks now i feel human again

Good tasty food quick delivery

First time trying this Chinese & it didn't disappoint. Very happy with all dishes, would order again.

Great quantity for price all mostly tasty andd quality flavour but some lacking

Great selection, good price and great tasting food served with a smile.

So happy with my order. Arrived really quickly, and the food was brilliant quality and really hot, great tasting, and overall really enjoyable. Will definitely be ordering again!

Nice warm food, great quantity and tasty! Really happy and look forward to ordering from here again! Thank you

Really tasty food & super fast delivery, would definitely recommend

Those ribs just melted off the bone absolutely delicious

Absoulety vile place to eat nothing was hot nothing tasted as it should looked disgusting

Great, tasty food. Arrived quickly and piping hot. Shout out to very kind and helpful delivery person - bless you. Will be back!

Food arrived on time, piping hot and all delicious! We all have very full happy tummies! Kind driver. Thank you.

Absolutely delicious. Cooked perfect. Prawn dumplings are banging !

Fast delivery, great food and the best prices around.

Always arrives quickly and hot. Probably my favourite Chinese in Southend. Very tasty.

Ordered a quick dinner for 2 (salt & chilli ribs, chicken chow mein, Singapore rice and duck in black bean) and every dish was spot on, piping hot and even catered to certain requests. Very reasonably priced with no compromise to flavour.

All food was extremely chewy and dry and practically inedible to eat

Won ton was awful put straight in bin, crispy seaweed was actually good. Pork was tasty in the noddles but the noddles were mainly bean sprouts and the noddles were clumpy. Smoked chicken didn’t taste smoked and curry sauce was really oily. Again went straight in the bin. It had a top layer of oil 🤢. Don’t receive any free prawn crackers. And the prawn balls were really greasy.

30 mins late (just eat would let me select 30) m. Should have ordered chips and curry sauce separately. Smaller potion of both chips and curry sauce for the £1 extra. You live and learn! Otherwise food as expected.

Absolutely delicious, fresh. Cooked perfectly and generous portions

Food arrived on time. Polite delivery lady. Food hot & tasty.

This is possibly the worst Chinese we have ever eaten! We usually use Yummy who were unfortunately not taking orders last night. The food we had delivered was swimming in grease, the ribs were full of fat, as was the meat in my chow mein. The rice had chunks of fatty meat in too. There is nothing in me that would recommend this place, it is most definitely not worth wasting your money! With such a selection of Chinese takeaways in Shoebury I am surprised this place has stayed open!

Wow absolutely beautiful food. Warm tasty this is now our go too Chinese. Thanks for a wonderful take away dragons den.

chicken wasn’t. Cooked it was all slimey my 2 year old son bit into it… am disgusted!

It was not deleivered waiting for some one to get back to me Order never received The shop owner has also called just eat

Arrived 30 mins early. Fresh and very tasty

Amazing food Will deffo be back Fresh well packed … Iots of meat !! Beautiful flavours Thanks The only only only 1 thing is no prawn crackers and I spent over 25 pounds ! Surely that should be standard ??

DISGUSTING SERVICE GAVE ME THE WRONG ORDER THEN TRIED TO CHARGE ME AND REFUSED TO DELIVER THE CORRECT ORDER AND ABUSED ME AND ENDED THE CALL. WILL NEVER ORDER FROM YOU AGAIN YOU NASTY PIECE OF WORK

It isn’t here and you have asked if we have enjoyed our our meal!! Is this a joke? The restaurant aren’t answering the phone either, extremely poor

One of the worst chineses I’ve had . The noodles and chicken where slimy and almost had a Smokey smell/ taste . The noodles where clumped into balls

This is my household’s favourite Chinese Everything arrives hot, delicious and it is well priced!

Delicious as always thank you!! Those peaking ribs just fall off the bone its amazing 🤤

It’s is great 👍 nice delicious 🤤 will order again soon

Food was ok but portion sizes were a bit small for the price and the sesame prawn toast and sweet and sour sauce had a funny taste

I ordered this after another shop let me down with a failed delivery food was tasty and hot delivery driver was very friendly will use again

Thought we would try this place as our normal choices of takeaway were closed, food was hot but greasy and not very tasty, some dishes seemed reheated,definitely will not be returning, not to our taste!!!!

I dont know how you do it but those ribs are also so juicy and fall off the bone

The salt and chilli box is tiny not worth the price I was so looking forward to it but definitely not value for money. Order was late but it was hot so that’s a plus.

Always tasty food from Dragons Den at a reasonable price, usually delivered early as we're local. We all yummed it down.

We love dragons den! Our local. Great food for reasonable prices.

Absolutely brilliant best Chinese I’ve had in a long time

Very sad. Could only taste sugar in the curry and the vegetable dish. Overwhelmingly sweet. Binned both dishes. The pancake rolls were OK. No free prawn crackers either, very unusual.

Quicker than estimated delivery time. Food hot & all there.

Ordered 2 chicken chow mein, prawn toast and seaweed. Regularly order from here. Recommended.

Severely disappointed in the portion sizes and food quality. Not a single container was full, ‘crispy’ chicken was soggy, chicken balls tasted perfumey. Won’t be ordering from here again. But, was on time, food was hot and they had taken notice of special/dietary requests.

Food was exceptional, fresh, tasty, hot and delivered super quick. One of the best Chinese’s I’ve had. Thank you!!!

Nice and hot and what I ordered was excellent

Thought I'd try here again after a previous occasion of disappointing food. Ordered chicken balls and chips. The chips were fine, the chicken was dry and chewy and the batter was soggy inside as if under cooked, flavour was bland. The sweet and sour sauce was in a smaller pot that you would usually get. Won't be trying for a third time. Lots of other places locally that are much better and less stingy.

Love the food from here and staff are lovely

Usually good food but today was not that nice. Prawn toast had a funny taste and the duck pancakes where not as good as usual. We ordered 2 noodles and both where half empty??. Ordered £45 worth of food and no free prawn cracker.

First Time ordering from here and it will be the last time , curry sauce pot only half full and the food tasted stale

Not very tasty and not authentic Chinese

Delicious, the chicken curry is the best in the whole area…. Friendly staff and drivers.

A little underwhelming. Thai curry lacked Thai basil and Coconut milk and was very watery. Ribs were not well flavoured with spices such as five spice.
