Ordered Young Chow Fried rice and Beef fried rice. Very tasty, well priced. Beef was tender and enjoyable to eat. Partner enjoyed her Young Chow fried rice. Were very good when it came to checking for allergens.

This used to be one of the best Chinese takeaways in Wickford but sadly like so many other takeaways in Wickford they have gone downhill massively, they have extremely poor customer service and the food quality is way below expectations. My wife ordered a takeaway for our family this evening (£45) and part of the order was plain rice noodles with plain chicken (for our daughter) and chips in curry sauce, they managed to screw these up, we called to tell them of their error for them proceeded to tell us we were wrong, they finally admitted they were at fault and said they would deliver the correct replacements within 10-15 mins, it took over 40 minutes to them deliver the correct dishes, as you can imagine after 40 minutes of waiting the food had now gone cold and most of it ended up in the bin. I can happily say I won't be using the New Golden Jade again.

Placed an order that we was told would be ready in 40 minutes and then waited for over an hour and 20 minutes. Got home to eat and found that there were items missing and the young girl accused us of not ordering them and said it would take them a further 10 minutes for it to be ready so our other food would be luke warm. In the end only thing they got right was the refund.

Definitely gone downhill since the new management took over a few years back. Had 3 meals since and all have been disgusting. Even though we are only minutes away from the New Golden Jade, we now drive a 3 mile round trip to go to Wing Hing in Shotgate where we are never disappointed. Only downside is Wing Hing only take cash and not card.

We used Golden Jade for many years and have always been pleased with the service and food. Used it 3 times since the management changed and each time the sauce for the Beef with green pepper in black bean sauce has been watery, resembling a weak gravy, which is a shame as it is my wife's favourite dish. My favourite dish from the original Golden Jade was Vietnamese Chicken, which is sliced chicken cooked with roasted garlic, ginger and spring onion. This is not even on the menu for New Golden Jade so sadly we will be going to Wing Hing or Lon Wah's in future.

We were surprised to find the owners of the Take Away had changed. It was even more surprising to find the food had improved immensely. The options have increased and the food quality is really very good. The Hors D'oerves are highly recommended. The Chicken chow mien is to die for and easily feeds two. The sweet and sour chicken balls are well worth the money and well cooked.Well done guys, Keep up the good work.

I had not been to the Golden Jade for a while so wanted to see what the New Golden Jade was like. There was no trouble ordering the food and any queries I had were answered. The meal was prepared very swiftly and I was soon consuming the food at home. I enjoyed the flavours in the spring roll and my mushroom fried rice was good too. However I have not yet had enough of the menu to comment more fully.

The food is great quality. But on a few occasions my order has got muddled and also taken to another person, when I called the owner to say my order must have been swapped with another customer he said he will make from fresh. An hour later my original order turned up but was not a fresh one, owner lied he did not make from fresh, he got the driver to collect my order from the other persons house and swap. Fair enough, but I’m sure my order was opened as all the containers looked like they been tampered with and some of the food was cold by the time I got it. Not good customer care.

Visited here on a recommendation, and this one seriously good Chinese take away. Cleanly cooked, and full of flavour. Compared to most other Chinese takeaways, grease is non existent. Actually prefer it to Lon Wah, which is some compliment. Any poor reviews i think are possibly fake. You cant have mainly 5 star reviews and take a 1 star review seriously.

Having avoided 'Golden Jade' for years for terrible food etc, I was so very pleased to hear it had been taken over and renamed New Golden Jade. In my view this is the best takeaway I've had in a long time, from anywhere, not just Wickford. Used it 4 times now and all the dishes have been good quality, not too salty or greasy etc. I really can't fault it. I just hope more people realise they've changed ownership as they've not advertised it much.
