Despite ringing ahead for collection we still had to wait a further 20 minutes with very curt service. Salted chilli chicken was tasteless & tough. Ordered ham & cheese spring rolls, were given the vegetable ones. Won't be back.

I used to argue with my other half that this place was great loved the food. I have suddenly changed my mind after the meal tonight. The rice was clumpy, very little sauce and the prawn crackers didn't taste anything like prawn cracker they tasted more like sweaty 10 year flip flop. The fried rice with gravy was bad when my son wouldn't even eat it point blank refused. Very disappointed and very overpriced I won't be back!

Have been 3 times in the last few months. First 2 were really nice but today on our 3rd visit it was awful. We chose chicken chow mein and sliced chicken,chips,onions,peas and gravy. The only item that was warm were the chips. The chicken was really tough. Money wasted. Would never entertain it again. It's a shame that some places cannot keep up their standard. With how things are today, the cost of living and suchlike It's annoying when you feel that your hard earned cash is wasted. This was a celebration dinner for a 70th birthday and we were so disappointed. Ah well lesson learned.

Food is lovely but customer service extremely poor. I placed an order via website but payment didn’t seem to have gone through due to technical glitch (I tried twice) so phoned to check. I am deaf so used a relay service. Payment had actually gone through twice. The staff member who took my call was extremely rude and told me they were very busy and needed phone line back, presumably because the relay takes time. Needless to say will not be ordering from Gaze again. Very disheartening.

This place used to be ok, but has gone downhill very badly recently. We had a meal here a few weeks ago which was average at best, but last night it was just rubbish. The sauces were gloopy and what meat there was in our food was practically inedible. After trying to cut through some burnt stuff I finally called the waitress who said she’d “tell the chef” so that was that sorted!! We WON’T be back.

I really like the food from here but am becoming increasingly annoyed at the continuous errors in my orders. Ordered salt and chilli king prawn and got sweet and sour king prawn. A couple of weeks before, I ordered a thai satay beef and got a beef curry even though the order or the bag clearly said satay. It is not worth complaining as they just want it dropped down to them. It is a long enough wait and they are not apologetic at all. Final straw is being told that the free starter offer was off and no explanation given. Will have to give up and move to another chinese

I visited Gaze with family after we decided last minute to upgrade our Saturday evening takeaway. On arrival, we were quickly greeted by a friendly lady and taken to our seats. There was only one more party in the fairly small yet spacious restaurant. The menu was typical of a Chinese. Service was fast and the food was tasty. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating throughout. All in all, a homely, tasty and fuss free experience. If you want a simple and well priced night out or can't be bothered waiting for delivery or cleaning up the dishes then sitting in at Gaze could be your perfect choice!

Ordered dinner last night from this restaurant was told it would be ready in 15 minutes as I've been before I gave them 25 as they are always slow. Still had to wait another 10 minutes. When I got home discovered they'd forgotten the sweet and source sauce but it wasn't worth going back. My chicken fried rice was disgusting all I could taste was onion of which there was huge amounts. I was very disappointed as this was my mother's day treat. My youngest daughter had a pizza from Giuseppe's I wish we had all chosen that as it was delicious.

Placed an order on the app tonight. 6 main meals with sides of rice and 2 sides. Collected my order to take to a family dinner and when I opened it, I had got dry noodles instead of special chow mein and gravy rice instead plain rice. This would not be a problem until I rang. They argued that this was my fault and said they would replace it when I brought the dry noodles and gravy rice back. So not only were we inconvenienced because someone had to go to the shop to rectify their mistake, our meal was freezing by the time it was sorted. And by the way.... I would be unsure of how fresh the food is given they are sending a delivery driver to collect the rice and noodles that were mistakenly given to us (the person we sent to collect left while we were phoning to let them know). What are they going to do with it now that it's been sitting in our house for an hour? Customer service is SHOCKING!

Gaze is an Asian Cuisine sit in or takeaway restaurant.We visit usually once or twice a month to sit in.The service is always excellent and there is one of the servers who just makes your night as her approach to dealing with people is simply fantastic! All servers are attentive and will cater to your needs.Gaze offers a 3 course menu deal in addition to the standard menu, all of which is excellent value for money.We usually order the same things each visit and share.Our usual main meal is the pan pan chicken, with rice and then we get a gravy chip. Possibly the best gravy chip I have had and certainly one of the best Chinese restaurants I have been in! I have no negative points to highlight about this restaurant! It is brilliant!Robert.

My family ordered selected things from the menu and I, being a vegetarian, ordered a vegetable satay, when I was delivered it was dished out over the rice and chips without checking and the vegetable satay had chicken in it so we called up and they kindly offered a free replacement so another 15 min wait to get it and it came with just the sauce after telling the operator that we had already put the wrong order out with the chips and rice. So I have a plate of vegetables and sauce for £7....excellent

Do not buy the squid. Was very very rubbery. I would amuse my trainer soles tasted better after running a marathon. Very low standard. It looks like they are buying already made food and reheating it. Chicken salt and Chilly pieces were so uniform hence were never made fresh on premises. I threw it away.

I was really looking forward to going to Gaze (had never been before) Read their menu and realised they did my favourite dish- Chicken Yaki Udon! Well it was more like chicken yaki do not....Absolutely nothing like the proper dish which I have had in Ginger Tree. My mum had ordered chicken chow Mein and when our plates were brought out it was nearly impossible to know which dish was which. Obviously udon noodles are thicker but both plates where piled high with greasy,salty but tasteless slop. How on earth a cook can make onions tasteless is beyond me!!!! Never been so disappointed in a restaurant in all my life. After a few mouthfuls we were both done, wouldn't even bother asking for a replacement meal... God knows what we would have been given. Food was horrible but on a small upside our waiter was very friendly and efficient. Would not recommend Gaze to my worst enemy.

Visited on Saturday 27th September. We used to frequent here before it was reinvented and renamed. This place is starting to show the ravages of time in both decor and furnishings. There was not much of a crowd in when we arrived and I use the number of diners as a rule of thumb to decide on whether or not a restaurant sells good food. It`s not always the case but a good guide none the less so we decided not to leave and try to apply "benefit of the doubt" logic. All I can say is is that the food was not bad. It is also no where near as good as the fare provided by the previous establishment (Was it Castle Palace or Peking Gardens - or both?)Service was slow, NO DRAFT BEER in a place that does curries and the small bottles provided were expensive at £3.20 a pop. I also noticed that food hygiene rating has slipped to 3 star. All in all, not a great experience so will not be returning here.

We had a look at their menu online and picked what we wanted. I then called at restaurant to place our order and the menu was not the same as the website. I suggested they might want to update their website and the reply was that the paper menu was their new menu! Not a great start as one of these was a gluten free option.Had to wait far too long for our order and it's awkward as the people dining sit and stare at the takeaway customers and vice versa. Food was below average and about the same price as everywhere else for similar dishes. I also noticed while waiting that it's only 3 stars for food hygiene too. As I said, won't be back.

I've been a few times now to order carry out food and I've always come away happy. The food is tasty and plenty of it. I find I'm using it more and more as my favourite place to get food when I don't feel like cooking. I've yet to try a sit down meal there but it always looks nice.

Totally unedible honey chilli chicken no sauce at all chicken covered in jelly ! Felt ill, my husband ordered chicken sate with no peppers ---- no chicken or sauce either! It's a franchise that I'll not be back to.

For being a very well decorated restaurant I was impressed with the large portions on offer. The service was lightening fast and the prices for food and drink were very reasonable. One of my favourite chinese joints.

We'd a takeaway over the bank holiday weekend and we were very impressed. Service was quick and friendly. And they've a good system of taking orders using a computer, that you can see, so there's no confusion. I had the honey chilli chicken and was very impressed with the chunky pieces of chicken whereas previously I'd only ever tasted shredded chicken version. Chicken fried rice was lovely as was hubby's chicken curry. I would highly recommend this place.

Gaze in Newtownards is an excellent restaurant. I've really enjoyed going there to sit in. However, twice I ordered takeaway food and twice the order was wrong. To their credit, they do send out vouchers when the order is wrong but my advice is check your order carefully before you leave the restaurant.

I am a regular customer at Gaze both takeaway and sitting in for a meal. Tonight I went and was horrified by the service I received. Firstly my son asked for a coke and he was brought Fanta orange, we let this go as my son said it was fine and not to change it.We ordered from the 2 course menu and my 9 year old son ordered the kids chicken fried rice with curry (he always has this and clears his plate) I noticed when I was having my starter my son was pushing the food around his plate and only eating small mouthfuls....NOT usual!!When I asked him what was wrong he said the curry was not the same as normal, I tasted a bit and had to spit it back out onot the plate, it tasted of sour milk and obviously something was off. I was horrified that my son had forced himself to eat some of this disgusting mess!I called over a very pleasant young waiter who advised that the chef on a Monday had changed and although the manager was not there he apologised on behalf of the company. I advised we would pay for our starters and not wait for the main as my son had now began feeling queasy. Then a waitress came over and stated that there was nothing wrong with the meal and that perhaps my son didn't like the sauce! I told her he always gets this sauce, she said "the sauce never changed, your son just does not like it and is feeling unwell" I told her I'd tasted the meal before it went back and that it was disgusting. She still refused to take my explanation and was extremely rude. We ended up paying for the full price for the full price for our drinks and starters which I didn't mind however the women's attitude was appalling, she was implying that we were lying. If you want a good Chinese try The Ruby, Newtownards.

Recently tried this Chinese/Malaysian fusion restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised as I always felt the original Peking garden restaurant would be hard to beat- I was wrong - good service in pleasant surroundings at a very reasonable price- eg 2 starters of satay kebabs and b b q ribs ( good portions too ) were followed by honey chilli chicken and Malaysian curry both with rice and 1 side dish of garlic buttered chips ( which were superb) finished of with 1 portion of deep fried ice cream and I won't forget the 2 bottles of Chilean house white ! All for £60.50 I will be back sooner rather than later!

We had a vey poor opinion of this place when we visited it a year ago. However, ten of us did return, just in case it had been "a bad hair day" last time. I am pleased to say that I have changed my opinion about it. The staff were very attentive and friendly, the food was served promptly and account was taken of individual tastes. We opted for the special 3-course special menu, which has a fairly good range of starters and mains, but somewhat sparse on the sweets (only 2 options - fried ice cream or a tempting hot chocolate pudding). Why not give it a try, I can now recommend it.

This is an amazing carry out in Ards each and every collection or delivery. Fresh ingredients, generous portions, good quality meat and vegetables well prepared and cooked. As a family we’ve no hesitation recommending that you give them a try. ** Slimmers ** - they’ve a fantastic Special Combination Boiled Rice. Chunks of chicken, beef, prawns & ham - this meal means I enjoy a takeaway with friends and family without feeling like I’m missing out.

I travelled quite a distance to Happy Valley in Comber as we are away down the Ards Peninsula. I was in just over a week ago and we got a portion of prawn crackers given to us while we waited on our meal which was a nice gesture. Tonight we did not get any. The place was really cold. I could not even feel my legs. The mirrors on the wall had liquid marks running down them. I was really disappointed. 😞

The Kambridge chinese restaurantlocation-icon12 New Street,Chinese

estado viniendo aquí y durante los años ... la comida nunca cambia, siempre la misma.muy sabroso, caliente y abundante ... tres campos £9,99 . .. .. .. .. Eso es difícil de superar. Traiga su propia bebida o comprarlo allí ... no hay otro más chinos que pasa cerca, y hemos comimos en la mayoría de ellos y muy decepcionados por la terrible que dsih fuera. el personal es amable, servicial y merecen una mención.
