Used to be really nice but last night 31/01 Was the worst chinese I have ever had. Wrong food delivered and everything was over cooked. The delivery driver even said sorry for the wait the chef is holding everything up. We won't use again.

I was extremely disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. The prawn toast was unbelievably hard – I genuinely thought I might break a tooth trying to bite into it. The chicken was awful; it tasted like it had been boiled and lacked any flavor or texture you’d expect from a good Chinese dish. As for the curry, it was just plain disgusting – I couldn't even finish it. Overall, a very poor meal, and I won’t be coming back. Definitely not worth the money.

Sorry guys, you were really lovely & friendly but not sure I've ever had worse than this 😥 chicken chowmein was so salty & over cooked I couldn't eat much of it....

I have ordered from you 3 times the first order was lovely my husband and myself couldn’t complement your food enough the special curry was delicious and the rice was superb second time ordering we felt the curry was very sweet and not at all as nice as the previous order but it was ok so we didn’t say anything.. Tonight ordering special curry it was quite nice but we ordered some prawn toast it was disgusting inedible made from homemade bread chunks from stale bread no prawn filling on the top just sesame seeds very disappointing it wasn’t worth a pound let alone the several pounds spent on it!! There’s no prawn crackers in your shop so we ordered the prawn toast to soak up the curry which we couldn’t eat I’m sorry to say this but the meal was horrible and I won’t be ordering from here again

I made a mistake with the hotel address but between the driver shop and myself the food was delivered to the right hotel still really hot. The quality of the food was excellent, perhaps the crispy beef could have been crispyer but it was still ok. The complimentary chicken curry was superb. Super soft chicken in a tasty sauce. The portions were very generous so perhaps next time we would not order quite as much. Very pleasant delivery guy and super polite person I spoke to at the shop explaining

I’ve lived near this takeaway for years and have enjoyed it on countless occasions; a variety of vegetarian and meat dishes. I’ve always found the taste to be exciting and flavourful and always cooked well. They do a great job of bringing so many Chinese dishes to people at a good price. Personally I find they get the basics absolutely spot on: rice, chow mein, sauces and the like. Highlight is definitely the Thai Fried Rice.

I've been going here A LOT for years. It was my local since 2008. I've been away from Bristol for a year and couldn't wait to go back: it was awful. It was always expensive but worth it. Tonight it was bad for a cheap one but it was terrible and many dishes were £9. The prawns, bar one, were hard bullets and 'suspicious' tasting. The chow mein had no beansprouts. Battered prawns were tiny, hard, and swimming in grease. Noodles were so al dente they ended up al fresco. I cant believe how bad it was. My Mrs has never seen me throw a Chinese takeaway in the bin. I did tonight. I'd have just not have gone back if it was regular price, but I've written this review because it was bad and expensive too.

Had chicken chow main which was incredibly sweet, very dark brown laced with soya sauce. chilly shredded chicken incredibly sweet. Curry sauce was tasteless and hot, chow main noodles soft/mushy. What I feel conned! Rang to voice my opinion and was told “ nothing we can do” really? Never ever will I be back in there again!!! 😡 Anyone thinking of going there with this level of food don’t bother!

Old and rubbish. You know how all the ingredients in a dish of food all adopt the same colour when they have been left sitting together for a long time, and how everything tastes the same. That's what I got. Old, stale food that was stuff they couldn't get rid of in the shop. Won't waste my money again. I even brought two dishes so I had one for work the following day. It went in the bin. I was ashamed to let anyone see it. Wayne

I’m a vegetarian and unfortunately found meat in my meal. They should stipulate on their website if there is a risk of cross contamination. Awful. The phone call to the takeaway to report the above was also incredibly bizarre, I was quizzed and asked to bring back a dish so they could assess it. Being late on a Sunday evening, I refused. They offered a refund for the dish in question but the whole meal went in the bin. Come on?? Do better.

This takeaway is astonishingly awful. The food and the way the establishment is run honestly keeps me up at night. First of all, I know the staff get paid extremely poorly if they even get paid at all. The shop isn’t hygienic and needs an inspection. The curry sauce is lumpy and full of oil don’t even get me started on the sweet and sour sauce. The egg fried rice tastes stale and I can tell that it was left overs from the night before. The staff are incredibly rude especially over the phone and the manager who lives upstairs is god awful.

EDIT: Decided to give them another chance and did not regret. From 1 star to 5. Inside is really nice atmosphere, the waitresses very pleasant and took great care of us. Food was super amazing, tasty and huge portions. Since my first experience, I have been already few times at Thai Basil and order at least once a month food collection and very happy customer now. REPLY: the given review wasn't because you couldn't accommodate us, it happens. The one star rating was given for the unacceptable rudeness of the woman who called us to tell that you don't have availability anymore. -- Didn’t get to go to the restaurant. Made a reservation online and 3 hours before was called by a rude woman saying that I could have the table for 2 hours from 5 pm instead 7 pm as booked. When I said it’s too early for me, she replied so sorry and hang up on me straight away.
