Family get together ruined by, the worst food I've ever had in my entire life. Chicken tasted off and was green, the mushrooms were old and mouldy. Chips had been refried probably 10 times over in dirty oil, noodles tasted of a cleaning product. Curry Sauce was freezing and congealed to the tub it arrived in, prawn Toast also tasted funny. We spent £58 and it all went in the bin. PLEASE DO NOT USE, SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO ELSEWHERE!!! Thank me later!

After having read mixed reviews we thought we would give Grand Ruby, Preston a try. They were very accommodating with our requests, vegan option and omitting other ingredients from our other dishes. I really wish I had listened to the negative reviews! What a waste of nearly £40. It was unappetising to look at and eat. The chips were dry and horrible, the crispy chicken was soggy and the noodle dishes had a strange taste...I wondered if they had been cooked and stood somewhere. Never again, horrendous!

Just placed an order and after the women on the phone read it back to me and I ticked it off my list the food came and was missing something. I phoned grand ruby up to be basically called a liar which I don’t appreciate. The right way to deal with this would’ve been ‘’sorry I made a mistake, you haven’t been charged for it, I will get it sent to you now but their will be a charge’’ but no she was rude! Lost a good customer as I always use this Chinese!

Probably the worse meal I’ve ever had. Not used grand ruby for a while, wish I hadn’t bothered returning. Portions were huge but everything tasted sweaty and re cooked, even the chips and noodles. Beef and mushroom dish tasted of a moist slipper. Noodles had the consistency of a tub of congealed porridge. The chips tasted like they’d been re cooked in cold cheap engine oil. Tasted like wet mouldy cardboard.. The fortune cookies were damp and soft and smelled like the 1970’s… £52 not well spent.

Disappointing and disgusting. Chips were warmed up and inedible. Hair in our main dish of lemon chicken. Prawn crackers had an old smoky oil taste.

Bought food from here for years but tonight the curry and satay were far too spicy. Couldn't eat much before it became inedible. Wonder if a change of chef or ingredients supplier! Non spicy dishes were excellent.

Had a special fried rice however, the meat was very dry and overall, it wasn't very nice. This take away is conveniently located for us but unfortunately we would rather go further afield.

This is the worst Chinese food I have ever tasted. Either boiled to death or tasteless. Even chips cold and leave a greasiness in your mouth. If you can drive past do so is horrible

Shocking customer service, put on hold whilst taking other orders not a problem but they then delivered the wrong order, chicken instead of prawn and wouldn’t except the fact the mistake was on there part. Hubby had to make the journey and demand money back as they complete refused to send the correct order that we actually order every time. They now have two less customers. we should support small Business but it’s a luxury to have a takeaway so I want what I order not a substitute.

Popped in for the first time and ordered food for three. Two mains with fried rice and a Chow Mein (that comes with noodles) for £23. Not cheap, but probably about normal these days. The food was pretty good all in all, as was the service. The main oddity is that they only take cash - no cards etc. - so be prepared!

There's not much to say about a village take away atmosphere.... You go in, order, pay and leave. The staff are friendly enough and always have a smile. It can be hard to get through on the phone so sometimes quicker to just turn up. Food has been hot and tasty each time, the salt 'n' pepper chips are so good!!

I honestly don't know how this place is open. I ordered for the first time tonight. The chips looked and tasted a week old. The ribs dry and swimming in something ( definitely not bbq sauce as asked for) . We didn't even open the rest. Returned within 5 minutes of pick up. Asked for a refund and told no. Rude staff especially the young one. I understand many people use it, they clearly don't have a pallet!!

This is the worst Chinese we have ever had. The order was nearly an hour late and when it came it was so dry. No sauce at all. And greatly overpriced. Please don't waste your time and money.

Reading the reviews I was expecting a great meal but no sadly not pork chow mein tasted like boiled cabbage absolutely disgusting. Singapore noodles was like you dropped a whole pot of curry powder in it. Worst chow meins ever!! Plus point was the pork balls and sweet and sour sauce. Needless to say I would not recommend.

They told us 20 minutes for our order to be delivered then an hour later it came with only half the order. They said they would go back collect the rest and drop it back in 30mins. When they arrived they told us they forgot the order and told us to call and re-order. Don’t waste your time ordering here.

Went on just eats and was impressed they had vegan options but was slightly confused as to the option having shellfish and egg in them. I actually went to the takeaway to clarify if the dishes that are labeled vegan are vegan. They are unfortunately not and neither are the veggie options veggie. They did inform me that if I add a note onto the order and specify I would like the vegan noodles, as their chow mein noodles where not vegan, and to also ask to make the sauce vegan. Even though I shouldn't have to as it is labelled vegan. So when I was ready to place my order that's what I did but unfortunately they didn't accommodate my order or even sent any sort of vegan option I ordered. So if you go for the vegan option and it looks like the pic, it won't be vegan and most of the veggie options contain shellfish Refused to refund too

food is always very hot and fresh + cheap prices☺️good if you are looking for authentic chinese food and not chips. staff is very kind and if overcharged just ask and they will immediately apologize & fix it. have been accidentally undercharged more times than over, would recommend☺️
