Staying with friends on Great Bookham. We phoned to order food and were told it may be an hour which completely spoilt our plans for the evening. Nevertheless we decided to go ahead and when it was eventually ready to be fair it was fine with generous portions and free Prawn Crackers.

Absolutely ridiculous service, ordered a day in advance (order worth £135) yet 3 things missing and 2 errors in the order yet according to the person on the phone they checked. They didn’t once offer to re make or replace the incorrect or missing things, I didn’t even ask for a refund, just politely asking for it be re made.

Great food and really generous portion sizes. I can recommend the Crispy Duck, Sweet and Sour Chicken Hong Kong Style and the Lamb Breast with Ginger and Spring Onion. It is busy Friday and Saturday nights with orders taking up-to one hour, however this is a good sign of the quality of their food. I usually order Thursday nights when it takes around 20 mins to compete tour order.

This is our local Chinese takeaway and food is usually excellent. Sadly tonight has been a nightmare experience. We called at 18:20 to order and was advised to collect at 19:35. My hubby is still waiting to collect at 20:20. Totally useless service so stay away on the weekend. I would suggest to them that once they are that busy to politely decline any further orders. Being greedy in custom giving service like this will sadly lead to the failure of their business if they are not careful. We will only try again midweek in future!

Really good value for money as portion sizes are huge, 1 egg fried rice is enough for 2 people and you get 12 pork balls in one portion which is loads. Tasty food as well the only thing i have to say is that if you are vegetarian beware as i did find some small bits which resembled some kind of minced pork or chicken in the mini vegetable spring rolls.

Hard to know where to start : Salt and pepper chilli ribs had no chilli, half cooked veg (onion and sliced green peppers) and was just bits of fat attached to bone, all chopped into 2 inch pieces. Hardly 'ribs'. The chicken breast in lemon sauce was rock hard and tasted of burnt crispy batter. Straight in the bin. Deep fried beef was deep fried so much it was like eating bits of wood. The sauce with the beef was very good, just a pity the main event was only fit to feed my daughters chickens. So glad I also bought a portion of chips which went well with boiled rice. After all, its really hard to bugger up chips. At least the chickens ate well tonight. (I didn't feed them the lemon chicken : that would be wrong. Mad chicken disease anyone ?). Next time I'll go to the Fetcham Tandoori - which is what I wanted to do anyhow.

We used to go to this takeaway as it was quicker than going to Zen Garden. After a few months of great food and loyalty to this takeaway things went sour. One evening we got home to find out that they'd messed up our order and wouldn't fix it. You would have thought with our frequent visits they would have wanted to please us. Wrong. We now go to Zen Garden once again as we have noticed the food tastes much nicer there.

I paid knowing it was too much because he had such an attitide i wasnt sure wether i really had it in me to confront him. The other person in there was handed thier food and i took the menu to the counter and pointed out that the chicken was £5.70 and a chow mein with beansprouts was £3.something, he got the reciept and slammed it down on the counter in front of me and i saw he had put through a chicken chow mein, a sweet and sour chicken and plain beansprouts not noodles. Arrrggghhhh. I just said forget it and walked out hungry and £14.10 lighter rather than argue with a hostile rude a r s e of a man. Guess wether ill ever go back!

I have had take away from this Happy Diner on previous occasions as I live locally and all other Chinese restaurants are too far to reach without driving and more importantly charge an extortionate price for delivery. I'm more than happy to walk up the road 5 minutes and get decent quality food. However I haven't had a Chinese from here for a while and wanted to choose food online so we could order by phone and have it ready and waiting instead of placing the order once there. Disappointed at the complete lack of information online... NO menu'...no website...some bitty details on Facebook which would be an acceptable way to find out more but again no menu even on there!!! Nothing about taking debit/credit cards or not (don't want to walk there and find they only accept cash). I believe to survive as a local business you MUST be easily found online. Nearly gave up after doing three internet searches, luckily phone number available and placed order. Let's hope the food doesn't disappoint!!! It's 2018 please don't lose valuable custom by not providing easily accessible information!

Dined at Chifan for the first time since moving to Dorking recently and won’t go back. The food was ok and came out quite fast, however, the atmosphere is so unfriendly it made us feel uncomfortable. There were 3 staff members serving food & drink. One manager and two younger staff, the manager was clearly very stressed and was doing mostly everything themselves. The way the manager spoke to the young waiters was rude & uncomfortable for others to hear and they were clearly not enjoying being spoken to like that. Anything they attempted to do they were told they were doing it wrong or they were too slow. There was no music on in the restaurant and it was quite cold. I didn’t find the dining experience relaxing and will be going back to the new fountain garden in Dorking which is far superior next time I fancy this type of food.
