Lucky Buddha in Edinburgh, City of

I do not think it is reasonable to wait almost 2 hours for a delivery mid week. The actual dishes would only have taken minutes to cook. The food was not hot either.

Really disappointed with the box of chicken / not much in it and was overcooked

Good food and reasonably priced but my last order took over 2 hours and my current one is clearly chips reheated from yesterday

called Lucky Buddha about the lateness of the food delivery. All apologies. They updated on the site that the food was delivered when it was not. Had to call again for clarification. When food eventually arrived it far too salty! Like I could not eat

Food did taste great at first however the curry sauce seemed really salty which ruined the whole meal unfortunately as the sauce was eventually poured over majority of the meal so most of the food was inedible due to this.

I phoned the takeaway to ask for allergy advice and the lady there was very helpful, even phoning me back to double check something after I placed my order through the Just Eat app. The food itself is really tasty and not as stodgy as some other takeaways I have tried. I will definitely be ordering again.

food was hot enough but the beef curry wax very salty

Food is always great but the time this time let them down ordered 9.30 gave a ETA Of 30/40 mins then changed to 10.40 didn't turn up till 11 no explanation no message to say sorry not good enough

Couldn't fault the food but I had to call the place and they had forgot to make the food so by the time it got to us it was nearly 2 hrs.

The app says order delivered, but it has not been!

Really enjoyed the special fried rice and the beef and peppers in black bean sauce was the best I’ve ever tasted nice and spicy with good quality beef the spring rolls were 8/10 if they seasoned them a bit better they would have been a 10

We’ve been obsessed recently but tonight’s just wasn’t up to standard at all, not sure if a bad night. Cold curry with chewy hard meat, soggy salt n chilli chips and the rice tasted very unpleasant tonight

Delivery took 2 hours and 40 minutes… completely wrecking me and my childrens night. This is clearly highly unacceptable, worst I’ve experienced from any delivery platform.

Excellent. My first order. BIG portions, and very tasty.

Love it. I had the mongolia lamb and it was sooo nice

Our new favourite - everything’s so tasty and hot

Unfortunately everything we ordered tasted bad, so we binned it.

Lucky Buddha has became mine and my boyfriends go to takeaway for Chinese. We always tend to order for collection on just eat and pick it up where the woman serving us is always so nice. The chicken schezwan is excellent and the salt and pepper chips are always lovely! Every order we get free mini veg spring rolls which are always amazing too. Thank you Lucky Buddha.

The food was delicious. Will definitely be ordering again!

food was excellent, only thing i would say is i received sweet and sour sauce even though i selected bbq, still throughly enjoyed the food!

despite the lateness of the delivery, which was due to address mix up on the online system; the restaurant were incredibly helpful & the food was delicious!

Gave me the runs. Terrible quality

Love the satay sauce -spicy but not too much

Great Chinese! Even got some free spring rolls :) love u lucky Buddha x

Absolutely disgusting dirty shop not clean also meals are disgusting they used all the previous night before fried rice to customers Currys are absolutely disgusting people need to visit the shop before they order food or you will get food poisoning two kids behind counter are always picking there noises without washing there hand avoid this place till they clean there dirty shop the health inspections should be paying this takeaway a visit

Food was OK but delivery took nearly 2 hours

Tasty food delivered earlier than estimated and hot.

Bang on for the price point. Flavoursome well cooked Asian food. They always throw in a little extra which is a lovely local takeout touch. My go to Asian.

Thank you lucky Buddha, great food,

Beautifully cooked chicken and rice. Impressed!

Amazing as always , thank you 🙂

The delivery took 2 hours to come, luckily the food was lovely when it came.

Been using just eat for years and this is the first review I’ve left because the food was so good. Delivered on time and delivery driver was really nice! Got the honey chilli chicken, lemon chicken, and egg fried rice - honey chilli chicken was 10/10 and the egg fried rice was the best I’ve ever had (more like a sticky rice and a lot of egg in it which I loved!). Really great and can’t wait to try more stuff from here soon

Really hit the spot. Great Chinese takeaway. Good portions. Well cooked. Lovely delivery person.

Horrific experience with Lucky Buddha today. My order didn't arrive, when I called to ask where it was the woman on the phone told me the driver insisted he had delivered it. He obviously delivered it to the wrong address, I accepted this was a simple mistake so requested a refund. Then a guy (who I assume is the delivery driver) took the phone and started screaming at me. He said it was my fault he delivered it to the wrong address because it said 'leave at door' on the delivery notes, which was a strange thing to blame on me, it was also not at my front door or any of my neighbours door's on my street (I walked around the street looking for it) . This was very upsetting and disappointing. This was one of my favourite takeaways but after being verbally abused down the phone I will not be ordering again. I feel sorry for the poor girl who originally answered the phone before this man grabbed it and started shouting at me like a child. She was actually very calm and friendly, it's a real shame she has to work with such aggressive immature men.

Food definitely makes up for long delivery times, third order from here and food is always hot despite delays to delivery. Delicious food absolutely love the “happy meal” great choices, great quality and great price.

Fantastic food, highly recommend. Delivered on time, driver very friendly.

Lovely food, was delivered early. And the delivery driver was super friendly.

The food is always great from here.

Tasty, hot great value. Second order, second time impressed

Lovely food, hot, fresh. Loved it!

Delicious food! So tasty, best sesame toast ever. Lovely surprise as well with free mini spring rolls. 100% recommend, cannot wait to order again.

Not the best Chinese but not the worst the chips was so undercooked and the chicken noodle soup I felt was bland.

Great value for money. Had the set 2 person and everything was delicious. Highly recommend.

Big quantities but poor quality sauces and items

Never fails to disappoint, best Chinese food in Edinburgh

Very good quality of food and friendly delivery. Highly recommended.

Always great service , foods always great too !

Finally found a Chinese takeaway the wife and I both love! Every dish was very tasty and in generous portions. They threw in some free spring rolls and prawn crackers too! Also, even though we ordered on a Saturday evening, the order was delivered in around 45 minutes and was piping hot. We'll definitely be ordering again, and we certainly recommend it!

Decent takeaway as always. Was Saturday so is cool

Food was excellent! Warm, tasty and great quality! Delivery took 1hr but this was the estimated time and on a Saturday evening so couldn't really complain. Will defo order again!

Amazing food and quick delivery

2 hours to be delivered. Food hot when it finally arrived but was too salty to even attempt eating it.

I wasn't impressed. Poor quality food for the money charged. I won't be back in a hurry.

The food is always great from Lucky Buddha - but the service is great, too. I made a mess of my order and hurried along to the shop itself. The mistake was all mine, but they made me welcome and were incredibly helpful. Thanks!

Ribs were so tough. Smoked shredded chicken was same flavours as salt and pepper ribs. Was nearly an hour late than estimated delivery time

Batter was all soggy on the chicken obviously been sitting in the sauce to long

Only 10 mins late and had a text to let us know what was happening which was great as knew we’d not been forgotten. Food was piping hot and delicious when it arrived. Lovely, thank you!

Bbq ribs are really good.. curry sauce is really good also.. rice is nice and fresh

Food was delivered on time and hot thoroughly enjoyed

Second time order amazing 👌best food... I will definitely order again become my favourite. Thanks, guys.

It's a shame but it was so late that we won't order from here again. The order was marked as delivered know Just Eat about 15-20 mins before it actually arrived..

I used to love this Chinese, and it's a shame to see it go so downhill, delivery times are soooo long and just not acceptable for food that isn't to usual standard. Not ordered here for a while and I don't think I will in the future so disappointed with my recent meal here and there are other places near by that I will now choose first. The restaurant was apologetic of delivery time but this has happened too many times recently

Mixed bag the chicken fried, veg fried rice and the chicken chowmein was really great. But all the chicken dishes kungpao/saltnpepper were terrible and some not authentic. But the pickup was really fast and we could pick in 15 mins.

Took over an hour to arrive on a week day. Food was ok but not brilliant so don't think I'll order again.

Tasty food as always. Good portion of special chow main. Amazing smoked flavour.

The special fried rice was not worth £8.90. Tiny bit shreds of chicken and meat no prawns no gravy no egg! No slices of beef pork or chicken on top. Really mean portion. Usually I have rated this restaurant very highly. Felt I was conned with this though.

Lucky Buddha used to be great recently the prices have increased significantly yet the standard of food has done the opposite. The egg fried rice was disgusting and tasted like it came out of one of those ready to microwave packs -all stick together, grey in colour and no sign of being egg fried. Yuk! Both main meals also tasted quite chemically and artificial. The only good thing about the meal was the mini spring rolls. Very overpriced now for low quality food!

Food was excellent. We shall certainly be ordering from them again.

First time ordering from here and our speed delivery was delicious, thoroughly enjoyed every dish plus there was so much we have extras for later.

The batter on the prawns could have been cooked more but nice

Food not hot. Bbq ribs were not cooked and no bbq sauce??? Usually OK but overpriced,late ,and not good food.

I'm lost for words. At the time of order, the estimated delivery was 30-50 minutes. The food arrived over 3 hours later. What eventually arrived would be best described as leftover scraps of food from the restaurant kitchen. Overcooked, cold spare ribs. Chips so obliterated in the fryer that no soft potato centre remained. Chicken 'Kung Po' that tasted like it had a jar of Tesco sauce poured over it. Brown prawn crackers that tasted slightly burnt. The best thing about the meal was the rice! Can't believe I paid for this horror. I will avoid in the future.

Muy mala experiencia. Dos horas esperando que nos trajeran la comida, un sábado, entendemos que tengan trabajo pero se agradecería un poco de sinceridad en el tiempo de espera, cenamos a las 23.50h.

Great tasting food and service. We ordered the set for 3 pax and the portions were very generous! Loved it!

Honestly the worst chinese iv ever eaten, barely any taste or flavours avoid at all costs if you want a decent chinese look elsewhere

Smoked shredded chicken here is delicious. Much better than Loon Wah. Customer service is important to me and they were a lot more approachable too. Switching to Loon Wah.

This is our favourite chinese takeaways so far! Tried order a variety of different food and it is always so good! Totally recommended.

Getting back to what they use to be like good food.

Decent Chinese been here a few times and never had a bad meal

I've been ordering from Lucky B for more than 5 years, this last time it was terrible, the Salt & Pepper Shredded Beef was pretty much "salt" the Fried Rice was slimy and overcook, the Spring Rolls Meat was 80% pastry and the Deep Fried Shredded Chicken with Honey Chilli was complete uneatable, the "meet" was dry and hard , i don't know if it was meet or plastic. I phoned them and they hang up the phone on me. Lucky Buddha never again.

He estado ordenando de Lucky be por más de 5 años, esta última vez fue terrible, la carne de res desmenuzada con sal y pimienta era prácticamente "sal", el arroz frito estaba viscoso y recocido, la carne de Spring Rolls era 80% de hojaldre y el pollo desmenuzado frito con chiles de miel no se podía comer por completo, el "encuentro" estaba seco y duro, no sé si era de plástico. Los llamé y me cuelgan el teléfono. Lucky Buddha nunca más.

Easily the best Chinese we've had in Edinburgh. They offer a great array of vegetarian and tofu dishes (including an excellent salt and paper tofu dish), and are very quick to deliver. We are so taken by their food (and their lovely delivery driver) that we now rarely order from anywhere else! Wonderful people, and fantastic food.

One of the best chicken fried rice's in a long time, its very hard to get someone to make it hot but theirs is hands down the best spicy chicken fried rice my partner has had in a long time hats off to the chef. Its amazing!

Lucky Buddha are great we often have their delicious soups and the meat spring rolls are really fresh. Looking forward to more tasty meals in the future thank you x

I'm gonna be honest. One of the best Chinese we had,nice service,attention to details and guess what? They've got pass certificate from environmental health! You can be honest some standards are maintained.

Me encanta ?? sin embargo, me cortan la comida después de media hora de llamadas constantes y luego vuelven a comprometerme. Les doy la suficiente costumbre y los recomendé a todos mis amigos y familiares, muy decepcionados. ¿Todavía estás pasando solo AHORA?

No reply but when I do excellent food shame happening again tonight an hour to get engaged or a hang up the phone 📱 when I actually got through. Just gonna try elsewhere. Off my xmas card list. Such a shame. Disappointed to say the least

The staff are so professional, food is beautiful and the delivery is brilliant. Would 100% recommend

It's the worst "take away" in the city. I was waiting for the food 2 hours!!! I do NOT recommend it!!!

Satay was the best I've had in years.

Generally quick delivery, arrives hot, tastes good - excellent veg spring rolls (If ordering the happy meal ask for them in a separate bag as they lose the crispness from the steam when they are put in the container with the rest of the meal)

Horrified by the service of this establishment, me and my friend ordered food and it took close to 2 hours to be delivered to us. The food itself was ok (chicken too salty) but the wait was appalling. Never ordering from here again.😡

Had ordered my "last supper" from here before moving out of the area. The delivery was quick and the food was delicious!! I'll really miss this takeaway.

We hard ordered some salt & pepper chicken - super super tasty! We thoroughly enjoyed it. Phoned the shop direct to order and they store your address so they know it when you phone - makes it really straightforward to order. Quick delivery. Two happy customers!

My pregnancy cravings were so strong for a chicken fried rice! Ordered online at 8pm with an estimated delivery time of 850pm. Food came at 910pm which wasn't ideal. Food was good though!

Excellent Chinese food love the Black Bean sauce. Understand salt & pepper spare ribs are fantastic. As good as any NYC Chinese takeout.

I ordered directly from Lucky Buddha's website for the first time. If i'm being honest I didn't find it hugely user friendly, but I did get free delivery so I would always choose that over just eat etc. Food came in twenty minutes and was great!

I ordered salt and pepper chicken and there wasn't even any chicken, just batter. The salt and pepper chips weren't nice either. As you can see in the photos the chicken is defiantly not chicken. What a waste of £10. Never going back.
