Used to be amazing we had 1 bad experience last time. Decided to give them another try as everyone deserves a second chance. They were very rude and hung up. They should accept they delivered poor service last time and accept it. Never mind their loss

I thought I've found an eatable Chinese takeaway. It was good at first and now it's literally going down hill. One of the counter staff is rude and the owner unable to take order properly, keep making mistakes. The food are getting worse tasteless and burnt. Not one Chinese takeaway is able to maintain their food standards. Either they keep changing chefs or they just can't cook. A proper chef style of cooking can never change especially they cook daily but chefs over here are not well trained.

We have ordered from here a for a few years now. Unfortunately they have defiantly gone down hill. Food seems to be off when we get it. Chicken is slimy, and the duck has been green on a few occasions. It’s such s shame we really used to love it but it’s no we’re near how it used to be and we always seem to have an upset tummy the next day. We will no longer be ordering from here due to concerns for the food and hygiene standard.

The best Chinese in the area! If you love king prawns then they have the biggest and the best. Very reasonable priced and the food is always on point.

Best Chinese in town. Food is full of flavour and not super greasy like other places. Spicy dishes are actually spicy and can request modification of any dish for dietary preferences. Reasonably priced and always quick delivery too.

Tough as old boots Chicken and especially the Beef. Decent size portions but tasteless , the chicken in yellow bean sauce is awful. Burnt , hard , crispy chicken and chicken with chilli and salt starters. Very sharp , rude old lady on the phone/ front counter that always seems to be ill with the sniffles and a bad cough while not wearing a mask is enough reasons to swerve this place. Famous Chef or Lucky Bamboo far superior in all aspects. Avoid at all costs !!

If you haven't tried this yet then you must.....nothing short of excellent. Not oily, not greasy.....perfectly cooked vegetables, not hard, not soft and squishy, just right. Can make dishes spicier with chopped red chilli, just ask. Food is as good on Tuesday night as it is Saturday night.

Stopped off at Just Do Eat for chips , these are the worst chips I have ever been served. Hard and dried up like had been sitting there the past few days. None of us even touched one of the them straight in the bin. Disgusting that chips are served upon this state

Favourite takeaway. Love their Chinese food and love their fish and chips. Their staff are wonderful and friendly especially Karen and Mandy.

Rapidly becoming one of our favourite take-aways. Not many in the vicinity combine Chinese with fish 'n chips. This does very successfully. Their lunchtime Chinese "specials" offer excellent choice which are very good value. Normal Chinese meals are good value with generous portion sizes. The comprehensive "chippy" menu is also tasty and well-cooked

Although food was hot whatever oil they cook it in I suspect was the reason both me and my husband was ill after eating here

Fish the die for. So carefully cooked and well presented. The batter and fish melt in your mouth.

Wouldn’t recommend. I used to always go here to get my food. Been here tonight and the chips were raw potato inside. Hard potato it was disgusting. Owner said there’s nothing wrong and it’s just the way the potato is never experienced something like that before..such a shame was amazing before it was taken over!

Used to be my go-to for a great chicken curry and chips (for 20 years or so.) Sadly, Hong Kong House is no more and under new ownership. The new place is ok, but nothing special. There are better Chinese takeaways in the area.

The food here is reasonably priced, good quality and excellent portion sizes. I have had the fish and chips and assorted sausage s plus a numbers of dishes from the Chinese menu and I have not been disappointed. The staff are friendly and I can thoroughly recommend Hong Kong House.

We have used the Hong House for over 30 years, ever since we moved to Eastwood, always had top class food, for the price by friendly staff.

Visited today, a very busy restaurant on a Thursday lunchtime. We were unfortunately attending a Wake, however, the staff were just so helpful and attentive, given that they still had their lunchtime trade to deal with. We were about 50 people, the buffet, was a delicious, and served promptly and attractively. Teas, coffees and bar drinks were delivered by the smiling waitresses. Nothing was too much trouble. Cannot praise them enough. Hope to come back on a happier occasion, even though we live 70 miles away. The place has a great vibe and a fantastic position. All praise to the staff

Absolutely appalled by the experience we had on Sat night. Booked a table for 11 people (family came down from Ipswich, a yearly catch up). It was booked a couple of months ago and confirmed on the day. Was never told there were a few sittings. Our meal came fairly quickly and all was good up to that point. As soon as our meal was finished so our bill came which we never asked for as we were still drinking. They never even asked if we wanted a dessert or further drinks. We sat for a short while but was asked to leave as they needed the table. We were fuming as it had only been just over an hour since we got there. A long way to come for an hour. Needless to say we will not be going there again. So please when booking there make sure they tell how long you have.

The waitress was an absolute star, she persevered with two pensioners. The fish and chips were a tad disappointing, though the fish was well cooked, the chips were suffering from anaemia. I would struggle to describe the mushy peas but my wife's side salad was brilliant. All in all, a little disappointing, though we would go again.

We visited for my husband‘s birthday. We were a table of five and arrived at 7 pm. On arrival. We were the only diners in the restaurant. Three other tables were occupied by the time that we left 9 pm. This was a sat night. The menu has changed fewer choices or maybe fewer fine dining choices. The signature dish seemed to be the steak either steak on the stone or cooked so we opted for steak. The menu even contains a little joke. “Don’t ask the chef to cook well or medium well “ I opted for medium rare so when it arrived, I struggled to find the pink meat. I also ordered some garlic bread for our daughters, it arrived smothered in cheese but no mention that it would have cheese both daughters don’t eat cheese . The waiting staff require additional training. A female server. Didn’t even apologise when I complained about my steak instead told me it would be a further 15 minutes for a new piece , that wouldn’t work as everyone else had been served. They would’ve been nearly finished when mine arrived. Her solution was to scrap the order all together, but I came to a restaurant to eat. That wasn’t a good solution, the senior server, or maybe the manager later came over and offered to compensate for the steaks and provided a discount, which is really good of him, the chips could’ve been triple cooked for that crispy restaurant feel they suspiciously look like they may have come out of a packet also . After we complained about the steaks, we didn’t receive any additional service. We had to request a desert menu, being gluten-free. I asked what was gluten-free on the menu. I was told nothing it’s not completely unusual but usually you’re offered either ice cream or sorbet. We had the feeling that we were no longer wanted so forfeited the deserts for our table of five, asked for the bill and left, one of our diners was in a wheelchair, no point did anyone offer to open the door so we navigate of the double doors ourselves and left disappointed . Positively the cocktails and the beers were delicious. My recommendation would be hire some staff that smile or are attentive, become a bar and do what you are good at. This used to be one of my husband’s favourite restaurants in Southend. I’m not sure will visit again though. Bad times!

It really is the best fish and chips I've had in years and well worth the trip from Bristol. I'll definately be returning
