This was terrible food! Sweet and sour pork was thick batter,tough and dry pork,the sweet and sour sauce was awful, nothing like it should be ! Shocking! The Beef fried rice was disgusting couldnt eat it as it smelled and tasted BURNT!! Absolutely disgusting! Went to the bin!! Chow mein wasnt great either! Lets say the foxes will have a great meal on our way through the counrty roads as we didn't. Awfull will never ever go back and I would advise anyone else to stay far clear of this awfull food.

They do a chicken chow mein and special fried rice we prefer to all others tried around here. It's a takeaway, atmosphere is not a significant rating aspect.

Our usual Chinees takeaway was closed, we used to come here about 25 years ago but for some reason this place fell out of favour. I was very pleased with the .ears we had, dishes were about £0.40 cheaper. The quality was good, better than the one up the road but not quite up to our usual one. Would I come here again, yes if our usual.one is closed or we fancied a change. Parking can be an issue but a well deserved 4/5

I’ll never eat here again, spent £40 and had to throw most of the food away, I ordered duck in plum sauce, there was more fat than duck!!! And the plum sauce was a dirty brown colour with no flavour! I ordered sweet and sour chicken Cantonese style, it was more like fried batter Cantonese style…..no chicken!!! Avoid this place 100%!!!

Very poor quality food. Prawn toast was small and bone dry, Singapore noodles were bland, egg fried rice was gelatinous and tasteless, curry sauce tasted of flour and the spare ribs, mostly dry, are coated in what I can only assume is Bisto and handfuls of salt. Used to be a regular customer here until about three years ago, thought I'd give it another try, won't be making that mistake again

Just finished what I could stomach of this inedible " food". Read some reviews and cannot believe anyone in thier right mind could say it was an enjoyable meal. The sauce was indiscernible to the sweet and sour it was supposed to be, everything was too salty, the ribs where tougher than leather and, after one spoonful, the rice went in the bin. You couldn't pay me to eat this again.

Seemed luke we ordered a lot an yet when it arrived there was enough for 3 people at most I would adviase ordering from somewhere else if you want more than enough food for more than 3. Very disappointed. Shame as it was good here before lockdown.

Never one to complain but feel like this was needed. RUDE owner and not even my dog would eat the food!!! Sweet and sour chicken tasted like it was days old. Chips hurt my teeth they were so hard! I rang up to explain that the food wasnt even edible only for the owner to shout at me down the phone saying i need to handle my complaints better! I had to check my order twice and go back and fourth to the car as they left 3 of my items out as well! I will NEVER return. Disgusting Wouldnt even give it a one star but wont let me post a 0!

Chicken in hot sauce .NOT, now way was that chicken, it was rubbery and slimy, a handful of onions and watery sauce, 1/4 inch of oil, half a carton, dismal disgusting. Had pork Chinese style, definitely not what I’ve had before. The pork was tough, and the only other ingredient was bean sprouts, sauce was just flavoured water, surely there’s more to Chinese style than that!!!!!!. What has happened, I’ve noticed that the quality has gone down in the last 6 months, will be going elsewhere. You really need to buy real chicken, needs investigating, you can’t sell that as chicken .

Never eat a chinese when we go away as every time we’ve tried one it never compares to our beloved chinese takeaway at home. Thought we’d give it a try and it was amazing! Fast, averagely priced, freshly cooked to order, warm and tasted so good that we’re planning on ordering a very big order in December for over 20 people for our Christmas works do!!

I’ve had around 3 meals from here over the last decade but never thought it was anything special. Anyway, decided to give it another go to see if there was any change as my usual takeaway was closed. No change and definitely not worth the money. I did check the reviews before I ordered and a word that has cropped up a few times is bland. This I found is a good description of my meal. On a positive note my wife thought her meal was o.k.

The service is really good, nice staff. Food came nice and hot I had an amazing chicken curry, I was a bit worried on what to expect because of the other reviews stating bland but it was full of flavour, egg fried rice alot on the oily side which was a bit gutted about but overall a lovely meal. My partner ordered a beef chow mein and the noodles were top notch, but the beef was a bit tough, could have done with being a bit more on the tender side nevertheless we both ate it all... Standard chinese. Would buy again as other ones we like don't offer deliery so this business definitely has its perks!! Generous portions.4* from me 🙂 thank you

First time back here since 2015. Food was very slow in being prepared, it appears that the takeaway home delivery operation takes priority over those who are given scant attention by walking in. The food itself has gone down in quality. My pork chow Mein was 90% bean sprouts with about 4 small pieces of pork, no noodles and the sauce was very salty but flavourless. Another meal ordered as ribs... they were clearly reheated and not freshly cooked, or ‘roasted’ as claimed. They were only offered with standard sauces which would have been just poured over. Deeply disappointed and I will not be returning.

Pleasant enough staff, but food has nothing to recommend it. Generically cooked and almost unrecognisable dishes. "Worst ever Chinese" verdict from 9 yo, and most other dishes could also not be finished. Lemon Chicken looked like SS Chicken, but came with a different gel sauce. Seems like a basic thing to get right. Last resort only! I think I agree with my son's verdict despite my more advanced years.

Having seen these reviews we decided to try some items from the takeaway menu. It all looked fairly average so we took a punt and ordered enough for four people. Although the food was edible the rice, in particular, was not as stated. The noodles were rather burnt while the sweet-and-sour sauce appeared to be a tomato soup. Also they are cash only.

Something has changed with this place - I only return to Carmarthen every few years. Last time I had food here around 2 years ago it was great - tonight it was bloody inedible. I had to send the Cantonese sweet & sour chicken back as we thought it was crispy chicken it was so tough and hard. Duck curry - once my favourite here - disgusting. Zero stars if I could

Best Chinese in Carmarthenshire, very tasty, hot & quality food!! They are a family-run business with the standard being extremely high. All staff are very polite, helpful and friendly. The service is both effective and efficient, the atmosphere extremely cosy. The effort and hard work of staff does not go unnoticed or unappreciated in any way, shape or form. I am a regular customer here @ Kwong Yick of Water Street, Carmarthen and I regularly recommend to friends & family. I am very impressed of the patience, attitude, commitment and speed of service. I am awarding Kwong Yick a 10/10 and a 5* and I don't award this marking easily. Thank you in readingPaul Jenkins

Lived locally for many years, never tried China Kitchen before. First visit tonight- didn’t phone in advance, just drove down. Was very busy as Friday night, but not too long a wait , about 10 minutes. And very nice it was . Beef in ginger with spring onions. Large very fresh pieces of vegetables, plenty of big chunks tender beef. And not greasy liquid either. Prawn crackers didn’t have that odd chemical taste you sometimes get, they were lovely. Chicken balls in batter - light batter, no grease. One of the best Chinese I’ve had I think. Will definitely return.

The best Chinese food we've had for a long time. Good vegetarian choices alongside the meat and fish dishes all well cooked and delicious. Good size portions too meaning a main dish with rice is good for dinner and lunch the next day. We'll definitely be back.
