We have been using this takeaway for 30 years. Myself and my family loved it here, the quality used to be brilliant.Tonight was our last visit. It has gone downhill badly. The chips were reheated and chewy, the curry was watery and my vegetable dish was tasteless. I never thought I would leave a bad review of the Kwai Chin as it used to be fantastic. Simon, if you are reading this, please improve or you will have no customers left. What a waste of £19!

I have been travelling 17 miles every week for over 20 years to the kwai chin. The food is always excellent and have yet to find a curry as good as here. Here's to many more curries ! Keep doing what ur doing !

The staff were really nice it was my first time in there and I felt welcome but unfortunately the dishes tasted similar and bland, almost like they weren't using any fancy sauces for all the dishes like other places do. The duck pieces were very small and soggy unlike what I've had in other places. The price is cheaper but it's not worth it

There are several Chinese takeaways in Newtown and this one is busy and popular but fast and delicious. I usually go to the one closer to my house, and one day my prefered one was closed so I came to Kwai Chin and the woman jokingly said to me 'you usually go to 'rival restaurant', and you're only here because it's closed, correct? I had to admit it was true, but when i got home and ate the food, it was just as good, if not better than the competitor.There is plenty of business for both restaurants, but will order from them again as my usual one has started to mess up orders more often than I am happy with. Best part was that they were very fast to process the order, and that's what we want. FAST and GOOD!!

I would like to say been coming here for years and never once been disappointed with any of the food given it has always been quick tasty and a good portion..Simon front of house has never once been rude as others suggest but very happy and always welcoming...you can’t please everyone as some always have some issue with something but instead of having a chat with management they would rather have a whinge on here...keep doing what you are doing Simon and the rest of staff and you will always have my custom...

The food itself is ok but I can’t say it’s wonderful. Every time I have ordered food from this takeaway there is one man who is so rude... it’s like he’d rather you didn’t order with them at all... I would pick other takeaways over this one any day.

Normally we go to the Canton Wok but as it was closed we went here instead. Chicken chow mein was dry, burned in some places and consisted of just noodles and chicken, no beansprouts or other veg. Chicken and mushrooms tasted like sick and the egg fried rice had 4 small bits of egg in it. The only edible thing was the portion of chips. All for £20. Never again, I still feel sick now and its been 3 hours since I tried to eat it.

I had been here once before recommended by our housemate, but as the menu was a little smaller than I’m used to I didn’t know what to order and just had sweet and sour chicken balls last time. They were nice but you can’t go wrong with them really.

I've been coming to Kwai Chin for the past 14 years and never had anything but fabulous food and super customer service. The BBQ spared ribs rock, the prawn crackers and just right and the meal deal for 2 feeds at least 4 (great for a breakfast fry up!) Bottom line, Kwai Chin rocks. Highly recommended : )

Best Chinese in town. The duck in plum sauce is to die for, try it, trust me you'll love it. The chicken kung po is also delicious. Admittadly Simon isn't the kind of guy to smile as he serves you, but that's just him.

Absolutely disgusted with the customer service! I've never been so insulted, talked down to, humiliated and dismissed. Do not go here if you have any allergies, vegetarian or vegans even if they promise that they can cater for you. I became extremely sick after being served food which they promised would be suitable for my dietary requirements. Went back and explained what had happen, including evidence of food and I was told that he wouldn't do anything. He had some sort of book he puts names in who make complaints and refuses to serve them after that. I was outraged! He refused to take blame or apologise. I will never ever eat their food again. Please do not put yourself in danger or allow yourself to be treated in this way.

We regularly use Kwai Chin takeaway as most of the meals we get there are great quality. Because it is popular there are often longer waiting times but it is usually worth waiting for. The curries are the best in the area and we are happy with the quality. The Kwai Chin has a hygiene rating of 5. We have used other takeaway's in the area but none come close in terms of flavour.

I'm afraid after 25 years of using the Kwai Chin, I shan't be using it again! Some of the worst customer service I've had to experience.After we complained that they'd messed up an order, they proceeded to put the blame on us! He even wanted my name so he could put it in his 'little black book' of difficult customers! Must of had a fair few complaints to have a book!Avoid.
