Garlok Garden in Southend-on-Sea

Definitely lived up to it's name Wang-Kei! Food was awful. Slimy, salty -prawns were dirty! Sauces were watered down. Worst Chinese we have ever had. What a waste of £50. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!

My son ordered food from here for the first time..I asked him to check that the chicken balls were cooked properly, as you can never be too sure..to find they were PINK inside! Absolutely disgusting!! How are they allowed to trade...ABSOLUTELY AVOID!! I called to complain & was told to go through just eat...no apology or help whatsoever!!! I wouldn't even give 1 star but its the lowest the ratings go...maybe a call to trading standards is needed!!

Worst meal I have ever had,and when I called to complain the manager refused to talk to me.3 meals went straight in the bin.

Really friendly people and the food was piping hot and lovely, cheers guys

Horrible horrible service. Didn’t even bother to order food after that. Worst experience from any takeout.

Food was really bad. Worst Chinese meal I've ever had. Won't be returning. Food straight in the bin.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!! Actually the worst Chinese I’ve ever had in my life paid £40 for my food which I had about 3 bites and threw it away the rice wasn’t even cooked the beef and chicken chow neon didn’t even taste right and was so greasy this Chinese shop be shut down not sure how it’s still in business absolutely disgusting!!!!!

Literally, the best place to order Chinese from amazing service polite staff amazing service, polite staff, quick delivery I will show you a photo but I’ve eaten it all

After a wondertime time at Sausage and cidar festival at priory park - popped in here for a late snack. Was charged £5.40 for 2 pancake rolls ( starter) when questioned why so much more expensive than states on menu - was advised that prices had risen....and we would be getting two. Sorry this did not justify the extra two pound from what was written on menu!

DO NOT EAT HERE! Absolutely terrible food, wish I had known! We saw the kitchen on collection and this should have been the first warning, honestly not sure if the dirty service was worse or the cooking of the meat, terrible smell, had to throw away. Waste of money

Wow! How have I just discovered this place? Just ordered for the first time from Uber Eats and it was so tasty! Best Chinese take away I've had in years! Lots of delicious dim sum to choose from and the mushroom fried noodles (I had Ho Fun) were insanely good! Cannot wait to order from you again!

Amazing food, well worth the price, quick delivery and hot food. Very recommended 👌👍

The food was really disgusting and I couldn’t eat all of it and made me feel sick and the price was overboard with some of the stuff we ordered

Couldn't get the address right and, having asked "does it come with rice?" and been told "yes", the rice didn't arrive. Phoned shop to be told "you didn't order it". Don't bother

The food its delicious. When ordering some food every order is correct. Delivery time is fast and no damaged food. The problem for me is only to call them is hard as they dont asnwer the phone always. Sometimes i just give up calling and order something else but for the rest its my best place to order.

Absolutely disgusting, they have changed the name now but still same people. Grim

Best hot and sour soup in Southend Note : this was a review for Garlok Garden, which is now closed. The new Chinese takeaway on the same site still serves a hot and sour soup, which isn't quite as good, but still delicious! Prices have increased significantly, but this is not surprising due to the economy, and how cheap Garlok Garden was.

My phone order was taken, read back and checked, with a delivery time of 30 minutes. Well within that 30 my order was delivered. It was fresh hot and generous portions, all reasonably priced. My compliments all round! set of meals

Really disappointed with service and quality of food. Inedible

Fantastic Chinese. Not available on sites such as just eat, you have to call them, but it's worth it for the quality of the food, and the value, excellent portion sizes, and one of the only local places to do wonderful dim sum. Southend's hidden gem!!

Worst Chinese I've ever had, just didn't taste good, complete waste of money & in the bin really disappointed.

For month we had takeaways delivered from Garlok Garden. Singapore rice noodles are out of this world. Excellent Stephan Basch

Not very good at all. Wouldn't recommend 🤢

Did not like food under cooked meat. Salty and sauce was Vinegary

Good value for money and very tasty

The best Chinese takeaway in Southend . Great food .

Best chinese food ever had as starter steamed prawn & pork siu mai and as main crispy aromatic duck served with cucumber, spring onions & pancakes. After that first time i order once a week there and every thing is nice tasty and really fresh. I highly recommend it for chinese kitchen lovers.

Great Chinese, was a bit dubious about using this place after Eatwell. But had Chinese twice from here it was lovely and hot and tasty.

An hour and a half to get delivered, stone cold and not tasty, not returning!

Worst Chinese food I have ever tasted, 90% of it has gone in the bin.

Just been here last week, great food, best taste in locally.

Amazing food and very handy. Best ever.

So far had two take away from here and pleased with both, fab location for me. I will be back for more.
