We had a lovely take away from this restaurant last night, this is the 3rd time we've used them and the food has been consistently good. It's also so nice that they have their own delivery driver, so you don't have to faff around on an annoying 3rd party app to get your food (normally cold!).- our food was delivered hot and on time, by an extremely well mannered driver. The prices are also very good- well done Li's Sizzling House, keep up serving us all lovely food with great service.

It's 1st rime I've ordered food from Li's and got Singapore noodles,chicken satay and chicken balls! The Singapore noodles were some of the best I've had with the biggest prawns I've ever had I this dish,the satay was nice as well but the chicken balls were inedible!! Honestly they were disgusting I'll put up pic! Who ever cooked should not of served them! I didn't eat one! But the rest was ok! And it was an hour n half from phoning through order till I received delivery! The woman who delivered was so apologetic!

I decided to order from here on a whim and didn't call ahead with my order which was a mistake as they were absolutely swamped so there was a long wait (totally on me, not a criticism at all). They were out of the squid dish I wanted, so I panicked and ordered the smoked chicken dish above it on the menu. And oh my days that was the best panic decision I ever made. It was absolutely divine. I had eaten half of it straight out of the container before I even got round to dishing up anything else. And as we all know, the true test is how did the food taste cold the next day. It passed this test with flying colours

Ordered delivery, very nice lady on phone. She was friendly and polite. Food arrived 30 mins after expected delivery time, but there had been traffic problems in the area. Really tasty food. Only issue we had, but didn't report as wasn't worth it, was our ribs tasted 'off'. Smoked chicken was a little sweet but lovely flavour, noodles were tasty and the sweet/sour chicken balls were crisp and not greasy. Rarely if ever have I had non greasy chicken balls from a Chinese restaurant, Li's are the best. Would recommend.

We were looking forward to our Chinese food. What a disappointment. The food was poor quality, tasteless, rice over cooked, chicken hard other dishes were of a poor standard. There was minimal sauce. We had the food delivered as it made no difference to timing. Also they only take cash.

Sometimes the chicken is very dry, I wonder where the sauce went. Not spicy enough and I don't understand why they cut the noodles!!! They are mini short noodles that I can't pick up with my fork!!! Noodles are long, not short.

We've ordered from here many times before as there are so few choices of takeaway around Peacehaven to Rottingdean. I was so disappointed with the roast duck. It was barely edible and all skin and bones. Picture attached. All the dishes are too salty, with too much black beans and soya sauce, with the bulk of a dish comprising fillers like onion, peppers, carrots and too little of the actual main protein ordered. To keep customers they will have to do so much better

Had a takeaway from li’s on Friday 13th November. The food arrived within an hour and was nice and hot . We had a mixture of pancake rolls , Kung po prawns, beef in black been sauce , chilli squid and rice . The squid was nice and crispy not at all rubbery like I’ve had from other Chinese takeaways which is a good sign . This is the first time we have use this takeaway and on first experience we will us again and recommend.

I bought a meal for three and although it was a decent combo for value, the food was standard. What annoyed me is that the lady said she only accepted cash despite having the label for multiple card payments right on her counter. Her excuse was thats she "didn't have a card machine". That's inconvenient and looks dodgy during the best of times (how is the cash accounted for) but with the rise of contactless payments these days I do think refusing card payments is one way to stick a middle finger up at current events.

Now only a takeaway this place is going down hill again. No facilities to take a card. Poor food and not being able to sit in and eat has put Li's on the slippery downhill slope that it once rose like a phoenix and conquered. Not sure if it's changed hands and I did notice new faces so perhaps it has I wouldn't go here again. Spent £33 on various bits and can't recommend anything. Such a shame.

Waited an hour and a half for some rice nd prawns which eventually arrived cold!! To add to the poor service, there was no sweet/sour sauce which was supposed to be included. Also I was charged for delivery even though I live well within the 3mile radius as per the menu which I picked up from them earlier today. Dreadful service of cold, mediocre food and I will not be using Li’s Sizzling House again. Sizzling it definitely 8s NOT!!! I wouldn’t give it one star.

Have been visiting Li’s Sizzling House for a number of years. Tonight was the first time I refused to eat a dish. Duck in plum sauce, the duck was green and purple in colour around the edges. Suggests to me it was old and had been lingering. Sorry Li’s , I shall not be returning. The food used to be fresh and a real Chinese experience. The crispy Lemon chicken tonight was dry and thin, not crispy. Chicken in other dishes was pumped and slimy. Disappointing to see the quality has gone down hill using cheaper ingredients and not fresh.

I popped into 'Lis Sizzling House' recently for an evening meal. I was seated by a rude and grumpy woman who didn't seem to want me there. The menu isn't that extensive, but that's not always a bad thing if it means quality above quantity. I ordered Roast Duck Cantonese Style, Egg Fried Rice, Beef Curry, and King Prawn Noodles. The potions were very generous and the food was tasty, but certainly not exceptional. The prices were very reasonable too. When I wanted to pay, I had trouble attracting the waitress as she was busy training new members of staff on how to work the till. So service and surly staff aside, I would recommend the restaurant to others, if your not looking for anything to special.

On arrival at this restaurant last night we requested food without MSG as my husband has a bad reaction when eating this ... we were told to take a seat and we ordered. We then had some wine and water ... about 30 minutes later the waitress informed us that there was MSG in the meat we had ordered, so we chose some fish dishes and were later informed that all these had MSG as well. OK we would opt for vegetarian options such as seaweed, spring rolls, noodles etc. We were then informed that these dishes also contained MSG. At this point we decided to leave without eating and asked for the bill. We had 2 glasses of wine and a bottle of water ... none of these drinks had been consumed but when were charged£13 for the pleasure of not drinking them !!!! It was not the fact that the restaurant uses MSG but that the waitress knew nothing and we were led to believe all would be fine when it wasn’t ... by the time we had spent an hour here it was too late to eat anywhere else. We will not be going here again.

Para ser honesto, hemos evitado este restaurante por mucho tiempo. Pero recientemente, después de la recomendación, hemos estado allí un par de veces y adivinen qué es mucho mejor de lo que solía ser. Los platos son geniales, muy sabroso y un montón de comida. Lo mejor de todo, es un gran valor. Yo realmente no estoy seguro de cómo pueden hacer todo esto por los precios que cobran. Pruebe los platos de gambas, langostinos deliciosos montones de. Otra ventaja es el vino, no tengáis miedo de la casa roja o blanca. Ambos son muy aceptables a precios muy razonables. Así que si estás en la zona y lujoso agradable comida china, no dan Li en Rottingdean (incluso si no parece demasiado lleno cuando vas).

As someone who has far more Chinese takeaways than I care to admit, when the cravings set in I now exclusively go here. The food is by far the best available locally. It just doesn't leave you feeling a bit naff afterwards as most take always do. They have always been happy to alter orders for me too (no bean sprouts with noodles, different meats etc). For some reason the restaurant is always quite quiet but food wise it can't be beaten.

This is the first time we have ordered from here and we were not disappointed! The delivery can only be described as amazing, I received a text after ordering and then another to allow me to track the delivery driver. We received our order in 15 minutes. The portion sizes were considerably larger than other Chinese takeaways in the area and the food was fantastic. We ordered a selection from menu, including crispy duck, some starters and a selection of mains. This will certainly be our new regular Chinese take away.

I was very upset to realise that I didn't get the full order that I'd paid for. When I rung they were very rude and only offered me 10% off my next delivery or the missing dish. Reluctantly I opted for my missing dish eventhough I didn't feel like eating anymore. This was at 10:30 tonight but I'm still waiting for it and the time is now12:15. I won't be ordering from them again and would advise others to check their delivery carefully before parting with any money!

Only living around the corner , we frequently use this takeaway as food always prepared in a timely fashion and hot when picked up - I'm surprised at previous poor reviews as it's very popular locally and the staff are charming , even giving us a free bottle of wine when they missed an item off our order - it's not 5 star gourmet dining but they do produce good quality tasty Chinese food and have a varied menu - at very reasonable prices - it's hot, not greasy , tastes as it should - nothing to complain about !

Had parents visiting for a weekend and the food was so good we ordered two nights in a row! A great recommendation from a friend, Chinese takeaway can often be dodgy, too sweet, too stodgy, peculiarly unfilling (!) but on each occasion ordering from Li's we actually had food left over and couldn't eat any more as we were stuffed. The meal for 3 is more like a meal for 4, it's great to see good portions, quality food and no nasty after-effects the next day. I'd recommend Li's Sizzling House takeaway to anyone in the area - from other reviews it seems that it may be best not to complain about anything (!), but in all fairness I can't really see why anyone would have cause to complain.

Whow wee.I have never experienced such rudeness in a restaurant.We have been before and it was ok and we have a lot of take aways from here which we have never had a problem.So I booked a table for 5, we arrived no one else in the restaurant. The women working in the restaurant was on the phone. So waited, waited and waited not once did she recognize us. My Dad has a walking stick and struggles to stand a long time. So I headed over to the table set out for us. To which the women suddenly decided to communicate with us, by shouting. 'You just wait, just wait!' So I gently tried to explain that we had booked, (she was still on the phone) She again just shouted 'I told you just wait'. So we left. As we left I told her she has lost our custom due to her rudeness. She really lots her rag then, red in the face shouting. So in conclusion if you want to treated badly go there.

I'm at a loss to understand the negative comments regarding this restaurant. My husband and I ate there on Saturday and had a lovely meal. We ate from the "lunchtime special" menu, and at less than £7 per person (less drinks), it was excellent value for money - and as much as we could eat.As a family, we use Li's regularly, both as a take-away and dine-in and have never been disappointed. We have always found Abbi, the proprietress, welcoming and friendly and as the food is cooked to order you are guaranteed that is fresh.

We was waiting over an hour for the starters to come and another 40 mins for the main course to come but they weren't busy, only 1 table with us. Price expensive, Staffs very very rude , poor English and very poor services. We ordered crispy duck and tastes funny, very dry. Spring rolls not crispy, foods over cook.

I left it 10 more mins and called again as my order had not arrived, at this point I was not happy but that did not seem to matter!I final received my 1 and a half hours after placing it, surprise surprise it was cold! I called to complain they said sorry and that they were busy! Which I find disgusting because it isn't cheap! If I had been advised that it would take this long I would not have ordered. As they did not care I asked that they come and collect their food and give me my money back which they agreed with no apology, they just do not care! They then called back 5 mins later to say that they are happy for us to keep the food and that we would revive a credit for the amount paid, by this time I had placed an order with another restaurant, too little too late! When I asked what time the driver would return to refund our money they said they did not know and would not advise what time they would call to refund!I will never order from this restaurant again and would never recommend to any friends!!!

Came across this place as they sent a menu through my door. Thought i'd try out a takeaway.. bad bad decision. Lady on phone said it'll be 45-1hr, fair enough. But then turned up TWO hours later, stone cold. I called up to complain just to be greeted with shouting saying it was delivered steaming hot and i was apparently wrong. Horrible service. Do not recommend.

Ordered takeway. Menu was varied so good amount of items to pick from. They took our order very carefully checking it twice. Spare ribs were succulent and tasty not dry. Chicken satay was best I have ever had. All food tasted fresh and was not greasy. Rice was light and fluffy not compacted and dry like a lot of takeaway rice. Really enjoyed the food and it was delivered in very good time. Very happy with everything and will use again.

Ordered a take away tonight for my husband and I. One of the dishes I asked for was duck in yellow bean with cashews. I made a point of asking if they could do this as it is not on the menu, the lady on the phone assured me they could. However, after eating our starters and opening my main I realised I had been sent chicken. I do not eat chicken in Chinese dishes as I find it to be of a horrible spongy texture so I rung Li's as soon as I realised, the lady's (and I use the term 'lady' loosely) was terrible, she shouted and laughed at me, accused me of lying and said she was not going to do anything about it as I ordered chicken...

We have had some nice food here in the past but when we ordered a take a way and they delivered the wrong dish, we asked for the correct dish to be sent out - we were shocked with the ressponce, we got called a liar and were told we ordered the dish that we received was what we had ordered - the lady on the phone would not let us speak and even questionned the time we called to complain stating we should have noticed earlier. This was unfair as it was our main meal that was messed up - and we did not notice until we had got through our starter. This experience has put us off ever using this place again, and for the cost of the food - it's really not worth the effort when you have many other great places to eat in the area with just as good quality of food.

Despite living in Telscombe Cliffs we choose to get our takeaways from here. Yes the food is a little more expensive than other places, but you get what you pay for and the food is very tasty.

This is a pleasant place that tries very hard to get things right. The food is good although a little pricy compared to the other places in the village. In particular their wine is expensive. Always seems a pity that restaurants want to charge so much for wine that they pay between £4 and £7 for from the local cash and carry.

We saw this restaurant while looking around Rottingdean and decided to pop in later in the day to check it out.This turned out to be a very good decision,what a great place.The food was good,the service was excellent,and the price what we expected.A 10%service charge is levied automatically,but you find it's optional when you come to pay the bill,it was the only thing I didn't like about List,everything else was superb ( And yes we did pay the 10%! )

We went to Li' Sizzling House again last night with a couple of friends. The owner (whose name I think is Abigail) and her staff are very accommodating and the service is both relaxed and friendly. We have now been there a few times over the past 6 months and are always made to feel very welcome and that our custom is valued.The menu is varied and very tasty and the special set menu offers something for everyone at a very reasonable price. This restuarant is building up an excellent reputation with the local residents and is normally fairly busy. I would definitely recommend giving this restaurant a try but would suggest booking as it is becoming popular.

Eat takeaway from here more than I probably should :) always good value for money. Very speedy and friendly service and consistently tasty food! Decent menu with lots of choice and the restaurant is always fairly busy too so that's a good sign :)

This was one of the best Chinese food I have had for a very long time, not to much sugar and salt 👏 just lovely food. The staff was attentive and price good for the quality of food.
