Golden Express Ipswich in Ipswich

We used to go here all the time now under new management the food is awful nothing like it was before will be looking for a new Chinese

Under new management, chow mein very dry, no sauce and no flavour. Have to keep adding salt just to make it edible. Prawn crackers are stale too. And king prawn balls seems smaller. This is a shame as we had been looking forward to this all day.

Used to be our favourite but unfortunately the last 3 orders have just got worse each time. Portions are way smaller, pretty sure the food had been microwaved, extremely stodgy and tasted weird. Such a shame as they are super friendly and it used to be delicious and decent portion sizes. Very disappointed

Birthday takeaway treat tonight! So disappointed. The food was tasteless and slightly burnt, and I had random pieces of meat in my egg fried rice. The only decent thing we had delivered tonight was the chips!! This had been our go-to Chinese for years. Now they are under new management, and we are on the hunt for another chinese takeaway in the area Previous review added 4 months prior to update: 4 stars We always have our Chinese from Golden Express. However, our only issue is that delivery is always at least an hour!

Nice new owners and new staff Nice food worth the money

Stood in shop alone for 5 minutes with no acknowledgement from staff even though I'd been seen. Poor

Just had a takeaway delivery from Golden Express absolutely lovely meal,could not fault anything. Very tasty with great portions. Staff very polite,delivery driver very prompt and friendly. Would definitely recommend. Well done.

Ordered from here as our usual place was closed,although a lot of the reviews we read prior to ordering were really good we found the food was disappointing ,the pricing of the food was far cheaper then our usual place which was a positive but that price reflected the food. Food was on time and hot and definitely with some more attention could be a good Chinese. 5/10

Best takeaway I have had, very friendly people Good service and no quibble if there is an order issue, which is rare. All round I recommend giving them a try.

Best Chinese takeaway in Ipswich. You cannot get any better!

Would have been 5stars as the food is good and cheap and been using them for 10+ years had them 3x in last month however tonight I place £75 order which was accepted over 2hours! Later I heard nothing I call and be told its now cooking. I question this and say to cancel I now have to wait for the refund. I even said how much longer would we wait and he said they can't do it tonight. So made a whole family with multiple kidds here wait 2hours to be told your not getting food disgusting am shocked.

Definitely worth ordering . Was recommended by a friend who lives near by and wasn’t disappointed at all. Meal was a1 from starter the duck to the main will be back soon thankyou

Superb re visit for a catch up with a friend. Lasagne & garlic bread a chuffing must, utterly amazing …. Service and quality 100% a MUST visit

Best Chinese in Ipswich! Never had a bad meal !

Lovely food and staff are also friendly and helpful. Very reasonably priced too! I love a curry, but cany have it too hot, and they always make me a locely tasty mild one, would definitely recommend.

Best Chinese in Ipswich, friendly , efficient staff and fantastic food!!! 😋😋

Very poor service. Food delivered cold and looked like not enough warmed in microwave. Won't be coming again.

Our first time from this place, it's not too far from us. It took a while to arrive and when it did the driver was apologetic about a mess in the bag and arranged a replacement. We enjoyed the food. It was tasty, crunchy, spicy, and aromatic. We will buy our next Chinese from here.

Staff are really friendly and enjoyed the food x

Best Chinese, I've ever had, definitely will go back, all staff were masks,including chef's. Kitchen is spotlessly clean. Outstanding service. Food is mouthwatering, yummy.

There’s a reason these guys aren’t on Justeat or ubereats etc. They don’t need the business clearly. 100% the best Chinese Chinese food you will find in Ipswich. Always amazing. Thank you

This place is the best Chinese in Ipswich. Ordered from them a couple times . Food alway hot and tasty .

Fast delivery and food was still piping hot. Definitely come back again

Food tasted lovely. Chicken balls and chicken curry were great. The best Chinese takeaway.

This place is amazing 👏 such nice food and the people who deliver are wonderful

Would have given it a 0 if I could,I have used this Chinese for years and today ordered the same from here and my husband has got severe FOOD POISONING!!he has been so ill and throwing up so much he had the chicken curry!!AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE!!Makes me so angry and also paid £6 to get FOOD POISONING ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING

From the outside you don't expect much but the food is second to none and the portions are huge! Cannot recommend this place highly enough!

Had a brilliant Meal, was just the right temp by the time I got hone, there portions were massive. Way to big for me, to be fair there was enough for two adults

Lovely food, generous portions and great value. Will be back for sure!

We've had several takeaways from here and the food has been consistently good. We've tried a lot of.chinese takeaways in Ipswich over the years but we really can't fault this one. The staff are always friendly and polite, the portions are generous and what I like best is it's not too greasy. Thanks guys ...

Best Chinese is ipswich good is so good and easy on your pocket at good prices

Best Chinese food I've ever had. We come from London and tried them there, then moved to ipswich and tried all the different ones here. Golden express is way out in front. Can't recommend enough. We have been using them for years now and wouldn't go any where else. Try once and guarantee you won't be disappointed. Only trouble is when we keep recommending to people we now have to wait longer to get our food

Excellent food as always. We have never been disappointed and never order from anywhere else. Quick service. Guaranteed satisfaction. :)

Great takeaway. We've been using golden express for a while, only once have been slightly late. The next time I placed an order, they knew who I was and apologised again for the previous order being late. Exellent customer service and food to match.

Best Chinese takeaway in Ipswich. Simple

Perfecto mondo! Brilliant chinese food. Great customer service. Love it. The best chinese this side of the uk

Best Chinese food I've had. The staff are lovely and friendly and the food really is delicious and great value for money. Cant fault it 😊

Cant fault this chinese,have it delivered,always prompt,food still hot when it arrives.Staff alwzys polite.

Our regular chinese was closed and now we're pretty sure we won't be going back. The man on the phone and the woman who delivered were incredibly polite and very friendly. The food was reasonably priced and very good. Will definitely continue to use.

Absaloutly amazing, great service, incredible food, always my first choice take out chinese !!!

I love this place, great food, really friendly on the phone and to your door, polite and well spoken, and the food is incredible

Good tasty chinese take away.. Highly recommended.. James(owner) is a cool guy as well.

They'll do.... Daisy is well fit

I've been ordering from here for years. I love their food, it's so delicious with great prices...best Chinese in Ipswich in my opinion. Staff are very polite and friendly 😊

Fantastic chow me in and the spare ribs just fell of the bones. Great Food .

Absolutely love Chinese food from here xx

We popped by here late Sunday evening having read a few reviews and we enjoyed our food. Good value too which seems to be something harder and harder to find these days! 3 big people and a small one ate for £21.

Great Chinese used lots and never had any issues

Was a loyal china city customer until i came here, service is spot on, food is great for the price and the satay sauce is the best i have had! Cheers

Everything we ordered was amazing. Think this is my new local Chinese shop. Ordered in store and meal was ready really quickly. Delicious.

Excellent food... go there regularly... for sweet and sour chicken balls... and house special chow mein

The food has always been first class whenever I have used Golden Express. A "Must try are the Sweet and Sour chicken balls, the sauce is brilliant.

Really nice food very friendly service the best in Ipswich

Waited for over a hour an half for food to be delivered just go somewhere else next 🤬🤬

I liked the food but staff could of been friendlier

Chinese is one of my favourite dinners to have out and I have to say after 2 mouthfuls I couldn't eat the food on my plate. The rice was bone dry and had no flavour and the meat was so chewy and no flavour. Out of the whole meal the only thing I enjoyed was the chocolate cake. Waste of money.

I'm always very pleased with both the service and food here. It's so good, I drive past four other Chinese takeaways to get my order.

best Chinese in Ipswich fantastic food great portions. sweet and sour chicken balls are great. lovely curry sauce friendly service

I work there but there food is banging always spot on

Had lots meals from here as we live close by and food is excellent And we have had many many dishes and always the same just excellent

Excellent food every time lovely staff also

Best Chinese in Ipswich. Fast delivery and very reasonable prices. Very very tasty food and always hot, not lukewarm like some takeaway deliveries.

Try the house special curry, amazing flavours. If you ask for it spicy hot you get it, they don't just lob in some chillies which is what most of them do. BBQ spare ribs make a lovely side.

Lovely Chinese food is served here.

Food was cold, staff were rude, generally not wanting to go back.

My favorite in town, have nothing negative to say it's always hit and delicious, and the owner is lovely and polite
