Imperial chinese restaurant and take away in Southend-on-Sea

Food was delicious, and delivered on time.

Beef was tough and the whole order was tepid and not nice at all. Total waste of money. Went into bin!

Best place for Chinese in Southend

Smooth Delivery, very satisfied

Best Chinese around! Always made fresh, so everything is piping hot, crunchy veg and not greasy at all.

Still the best chinese takeaway in the area

Would have expected sweet and sour chicken to be just chicken with vegetables not a battered fillet in sauce that’s my only feedback

Tasty and hot. Fresh, nice quality.

Amazing food as always! Lovely and fresh! We never go anywhere else for Chinese!! Best in Southend!

The food is always very good and of a high quality

perfect food with good portions.

Great quality, best we’ve had in the area so far.

Amazing Chinese food, highly recommended and always delivered on time.

Easy to order. Food came within stated timescale and was hot and delicious.

My order was on time, freshly cooked and Perfect!

Amazing food! Best Chinese in the area!

First time ordering from Imperial and was very impressed. The food was delivered hot and fresh and was really delicious.

Using them for years. Nice people and food always fresh and tasty

Piping hot and delicious ….. very impressed

Tasty Chinese food. Friendly, top notch service. I ordered the lo mein with roasted duck. Have been here twice and would go again.

I don’t know who your chefs are but they need a pay rise, that was absolutely delicious, thank you so much

I’m not one to write reviews at all. I have been coming to imperial for years now and their customer service and food quality is always excellent. The lady at the counter is so lovely and helpful. Thanks

The best service by far. This restaurant never disappointed me, delivery or pick, the best food, best service. I’m amazed.

Nice clean tasting food. We really enjoyed this order. Thanks folks.

The food was delicious and the delivery driver very friendly.

Mini spring rolls amazing! Soft inside. Food tastes amazing, chilli n salt chicken spot on. Thank you

Food great as usual. Was still hot and delivered promptly. Thank you 😊

Small portions and bland. Hardly any spice. Disappointing.

Food was cold and the portions are tiny….

Not very nice won't order again

Great food with early delivery

One of the Best Chinese take aways in Westcliff on sea ...

Absolutely amazing . Lovely quality.worth every penny

Great tasting food, the Barbecue spare ribs were amazing.

The food was really nice but the portions could have been better for the price we paid. Hopefully they will read this and change it and I will deff be a returning customer

very very poor meal and for 70 quid not worth that, food was cold and chips so so dry hard to digest, foods not all that and from reviews you would think it would of been a good meal very disappointed wont be ordering again

Best Chinese takeaway I've had since returning from Hong Kong.

Absolutely lovely meal. delivered on time and packed well with no leaks. Very amicable delivery person. Thank you.

Spare ribs over cooked, chicken chow mein very bland chicken not too fresh.

Amazing food and i love my dish so much and the kind lady allow me to take my bike inside for safety.

Chicken balls, spring rolls and curry dumplings over cooked . Such a shame, food has always been excellent .

One of the worst Chineses I've ever eaten.

A good selection of dishes on the menu. Food was presented well and very tasty.

Delicious imperial sweet and sour chicken and crispy beef so crispy and saucy. Amazing!

Ordered from The Imperial for the first time tonight. I’m in Southchurch but this was delivered from Westcliff. Don’t think I’ll now bother ordering again from any of the 4 Chinese restaurants local to me in the Southchurch Road. This was authentic, tasty, fresh, well-cooked food nearest to my recollection of the Wong Kei in Chinatown. The service was friendly and excellent too, with a lovely smiley lady delivering. I’m not going to order Chinese food now from anywhere else.

Always good food never disappointed

Friendly and punctual delivery. Thank you

The only part of the food that wasn't good was the special fried rice. It literally smelt & tasted like burnt rubber, so unfortunately i had to throw it away. The rest of the food was perfect, though. Very tasty, still hot when it arrived.

Wow! As always never disappointed with this takeaway

Super fresh food ! Really happy would order again!

Lovely food and very fast delivery on a busy night!

Food is usually cold and juice spilt in the bottom of the bag.

This is the best chinese food, so flavoursome, it never disappoints!

got from here a couple times before but this time wasn't up to the same standard the szechuan beef sauce was very watery and not spicy and the Ginger and spring onion pork was made with beef

The food from Imperial is always excellent, and the staff polite and professional, you can't beat them. The prices are a little high, but you're paying for quality. There are cheaper restaurants but you get what you pay for. I'd never go elsewhere.

Probably the best Chinese I’ve had in a while

Always fantastic food from this establishment, well done imperial

First time ordering, we found the chicken chow mien lacked any taste and we have had vastly better udon noodles from other takeaways. Unfortunately we will not rrturn

The satay fried rice was amazing and delicious and we enjoyed our meal.

We really enjoyed our takeaway the food was hot, tasty and arrived early. The delivery driver was polite and professional

Best Chinese by far! Amazing food and a lovely, kind driver :)

Delivery was quick and driver was very friendly!

Without doubt our favourite Chinese in the area. We’ve never had a bad meal from Imperial. Tried all the competitors, but they can’t be beaten!

the food was bland, despite the reviews me and girlfriend expected more but we are still grateful

First try and really pleased with our order. Food seemed good quality and tasted lovely. Would recommend the peking ribs.

Delicious and hot when arrived.

Its been a long time for various reasons and Imperial is still as fantastic as I remember ! I was in for a collection before Christmas and the care and attention over my allergies was sensational ! Food is as superb as I remember and that delivery was sooooo good ! 😊

Hot, tasty never disappoints with quality and

We have been ordering from this Chinese restaurant for many years and the food has always been lovely but this one wasn't! The prawns had not been cleaned properly and most still had part of the digestive tract left in. On top of this they were overcooked and inedible. The whole meal was not very hot either! Not good 😪

I use this chinese takeaway all the time and would highly recommend to anyone.

Best place yet! Food was what we expected

This is my regular, and I eat far too much Chinese. Good quality meat. The dishes are presented correctly. Crispy beef, HK sweet and sour, crispy duck, all the classics and trimmings are all very good. The lady is nice on the phone, and importantly my food has always been delivered on time, hot and fresh. Please put the fish floss stuff on top of the seaweed!

Always great food, my go to Chinese in westcliff

Amazing. My favourite Chinese and I haven't liked Chinese for years! But this has changed me! ❤️

Food is always spot on never had a bad meal

First time and will 100% be my go to from now on

Lovely fresh food, not greasy and arrived on time.

Always get take aways from Imperial one of the best Chinese take outs .

Great food and service will definitely be ordering in the future!

Rude staff ,and poor quality food, like something from a supermarket jar

Disappointed. Not much flavour. Pancakes rolls so small thought they were spring rolls. Mainly filled out with cheaper ingredients

The best chinese in southend, great food and always very polite service

Great food. Arrived early. Good value. Delivery driver was polite.

This was the tastiest Chinese that I have had for a long, long time. Thank you

Was informed it was going to be late so no issues with that, very nice food will be ordering again 😊

I never get my Chinese takeaway from anywhere else

You tried the rest now, try the best. Always fresh and lovely food.

Excellent food and service as usual.

Amazing food. Highly recommend

Arrived on time, hot and good quality food

Fantastic Chinese food, the best there is. 😋👍🏻

Big thumbs up to this place, food was delightful.

Only bought a takeaway twice from this shop and both times the food is perfect, can’t fault the taste, or the amount of king prawns in the curry, plenty of duck in the dishes and not overloaded with onions

Best Chinese in the southend area very friendly on the phone delivered by a friendly driver and the food was super hot and delicious tonight's meal was again superb thank you to the chefs and the team at imperial Chinese.

Absolutely delicious every time from here.

Superb Chinese food, fresh, non greasy and very tasty. Best I've had. Wish we had one in London as good.

Yet again a lovely meal. And delivered early. Highly recommend .

Our first time using this restaurant and certainly not the last. Food was outstanding and delivery was on time.

By far the best Chinese in Southend

The best Chinese takeaway I have had in a long time!
