Waste of time complaining about food at lido chef radstock had chicken chop suey just chicken and bean sprouts. This is Not chop suey it’s chicken and bean sprouts. The chef or rather cook needs training a complete Rip off pancake roll soggy probably microwaved. Was going to say he should check out Chinese cooking but it’s American (by a chinaman) Still the worst English Chinese takeaway ever had. Will Definitely Not Be Going Again

I like your food, but the fact you don’t double check orders before they go out really let’s you down. On more than one occasion food has been forgotten and I chose lido because they had more variety for me to eat, with my intolerances and you forgot my prawns in my rice! I was so looking forward to it, please double check your orders!

Food arrived on time. No free prawn crackers even though spending £65. Then noticed one dish missing. Phoned and they said they would deliver it. No problem. Sat down to eat and the food was barely warm. Even the family member who ate before anyone else said hers was cold. Phone up got refund for missing dish. Won’t order from again. Worst takeaway ever had

I know it's predominantly a Chinese takeaway but I have their fish & chips (with lots & lots of salt & vinegar!) they are loads cheaper than other locals chippies and MUCH MUCH nicer in my opinion. Staff are friendly too :)

So having ordered food for myself and family most Weekends for years for delivery I always paid what was asked around £20-£25 each order. No complaints about food usually pretty good occasionally a bad meal although on the whole pretty good. Tonight was only myself and my 8 year old son so had a much smaller order. Called and advised minimum order £10.00. Asked delivery price advised £2.50 The total of my food plus £2.50 delivery came to £12.90. The total I was advised was £13.40. After double checking myself I called up and was advised there was 50p delivery processing fee!!!!!! So they advise delivery £2.50 and add a additional 50p processing fee that in all the years ordering from here I’d never been advised of! Only the fact that I usually place a larger weekly order i had missed this So over the years lido chef has probably conned me out of a load of delivery charge 50p extras I was never told about Absolutely disgraceful how they can add a undisclosed amounts to orders Rang and spoke to owner he gave a explanation 50p goes to delivery driver but still unacceptable that on average ordering once a week over the year I’ve paid £27ish in extra fees and I’ve been using this chinese for years. Honesty is the best policy in my opinion A good customer lost out of principle and unsatisfactory resolution from management

We ordered crispy chilli beef, sweet and sour chicken and duck fried rice. The chicken had barely any sauce on it. I’d maybe call it a light drizzling and there were maybe five pieces of chicken on the portion. The crispy chilli beef was simply deep fried fat with very little chilli and, again, very little sauce. The only good thing was perhaps the duck fried rice. The duck had very little fat on it and was cooked well without being to dry

Rather greasy fish and chips. I would say judging by the crisp and dry nature of the chips they were left over from lunchtime or possibly the night before. Considering I went to Lido Chef at tea time you would hope for something better. Not great.

Not good tonight, chips looked liked they’d been reheated 3 times and were barely warm, all were tiny, longest about 1.5 inches. Prawn crackers were soft. Just put it down to a bad night, isn’t usually this bad but definitely gone downhill in recent years.

Not like it use to be unfortunately. We usually get chips, chicken chow mien, sweet and sour chicken, curry, noodles, pancake roll, rice etc. We have found this now is very greasy and they have changed the batter and its more like a bread type than the normal light fry. If I am honest I have only used here recently due to delivery.

We've been using Lido Chef for all our Chinese takeaways for years. Their food is consistently of a high standard and their delivery service is a godsend after a hard day at work. Friendly staff on the phone and upon delivery. Highly recommended.

I have been going to lido chef for a year now. Today I went in asked them for 2 large chips and curry sauce . Asked the girl behind the counter could I please get then split into 4. As was for kids they wouldn't enjoying sharing. So just asked her to split my chips. How she handle the situation and said they don't do it. Felt really belittled in front of the customers. If the girl wanted me to pay for 2 extra bits of chip paper to split chips I wouldn't have even minded. Would never go back there again or send my kids.

Called 4 times in two weeks and only answered the phone once food is great delivery is great but only when were actually able to get someone to answer. Being one of the only local Chinese that take card payments over the phone you must be missing out on so much business. Why is it so hard to get a answer to place an order for delivery? The last 3 times we have ended up going somewhere else purely because of lack of communication from your phone service

The foods decent, and well priced. Bit i'd say the last 4 out of 5 times they've not included things in the order or given us the wrong order entirely. Its a shame as the food is good. Just a pain when one of you in a family has got missed out and ir happens time after time.

Seems like lido chef has gone down hill over the past year or so? Very rarely order from here as there seems to be better Chinese takeaways that are just as close to home. Delivery has always been on time.

In 40+ years of eating Chinese takeaway, this was the worst. The quarter duck was 1/8th of a duck. The chow mein beef was VERY dry and VERY tough, the black bean sauce was far too thin, the egg fried
