When arrived rolled eyes after checking if they had the order correct then gave us food different to what we ordered. Plus had to wait even though we phoned before arriving

The best Chinese in Nottingham hands down. The food has consistently been outstanding in every way. The owner is such a sweet man and the customer service is top class.

**cash only** ensure you take cash to help Michael. One band front of house so be patient with him. Nice food. Good portions. Taking your own alcohol saves many of us a lot of restaurant cost so we can eat more or take some home.

The best little Chinese restaurant in Nottingham - it has been a favourite of mine for over 30 years

Been visiting Mayfair for about 20 years and still haven't found anywhere comparable in Nottingham when it comes to the quality of the food. Mike is a great host who is attentive to the guests needs and very friendly. Prices very reasonable and drinks can be bought from the shop next door so no £4 charges for a soft drink. Restaurant is always tidy.

I Will start with the positives. The food is very good value and with them not having a licence to serve alcohol this was actually an advantage as you can bring your own booze. This saved probably £30 at least. Most of the food we ordered was tasty and promptly served although the spare ribs were a little over cooked. I can however only give 3* as there was a beef Sezchuan dish that was disgusting. It tasted like jellied eels! Also be aware they only take cash I was unaware and got caught in heavy rain trying to find a cash machine!

Dear Michael, What a fabulous place you have got. You appreciate we come from a long way. Just remember we come because the service and food, cannot be bettered any where. That is why we travel so far. It is well worth it,even though we don't come as we would love to. Many thanks for the excellent service you and your staff give. We hope to be back again soon. Nothing compares to what you and your team achieve. Well done. Many thanks. Sue Kirton.,😊😊😊😊

What an absolute find, we decided to try this small restaurant after many people told us how good the food was. We went on a Wednesday night, the place was warm and most tables full.The guy that runs it Mike what a lovely man, helpful friendly and proud of his restaurant and so he should be.... The food is probably the best Chinese iv tasted fresh full of flavour exceptional. We ordered lots of everything to try and I will say we will be back in a hurry Michaela and Jaz

We have been coming here for well over a decade because we love the food and Michael the owner is a legend. The food is great quality takeaway standard with prices to match. It's BYOB which makes it good value if you're after a lower price meal out. Great for a quiet meal for two and likewise a perfect choice for larger groups.

Excellent food in basic but clean surroundings, brilliant value. Please note, not licensed premises so you can take your own booze, there's a shop right next door. Also, cash only at this restaurant! There's a cash machine nearby but I'm not sure if it charges or not, so best to withdraw some cash in town before heading up Mansfield Road if that's where you're coming from.

We had a spur of the moment need for some Chinese food. Found the Mayfair on trip advisor and was lucky to get a booking on a Monday night. It is a small restaurant and it was packed when we arrived, and no wonder! The food was excellent the service friendly and the value excellent. They don’t have a licence so it BYOB. But there is an excellent off-licence next door. It’s also cash only - but there is an atm next door as well. We had the crispy duck followed by Singapore noodles, sweet and sour chicken and duck in oyster sauce. All perfectly cooked and persuaded my daughter that Singapore noodles are worthwhile ordering. Please go - you will be pleased and the value was excellent

went to this little gem, mayfair Chinese restaurant, wasn't a very big restaurant and very basic, the food was absolutely fantastic, cooked from fresh and very well presented all at a reasonable price, we booked our table for 6.30, by 7pm it was full probably about a dozen tables. The waiter probably the owner was the only one taking peoples orders and to say it was full he did a fantastic job of looking after evey body and you didn't have to wait long in between your courses. They don't serve alcohol only soft drinks, you can just take your own alcoholic drinks which is fantastic. If your ever in the area give them a try you won't be disappointed, I will certainly be going again

Cash only. Bring your own alcoholic (and even soft) drinks. I've been here two or three times with colleagues. By 6pm every table is taken, with reservations or people waiting for you to leave, and a steady stream of people collecting takeaway. There's a decent selection of vegetarian options. Prices are very reasonable. Service is excellent. Toilets are clean, although they are up a steep flight of stairs. So why 3 stars? I just don't like the food, and if I were choosing a place to eat in Nottingham, it wouldn't be here. But you might just love it!

Without question, the best Chinese ever. Been going here for 25 years. Hope I live long enough to go for another 25. Normally, when we go for Chinese everyone orders something and then we eat a bit of everyone's meal. Even just a taster. At the Mayfair... Don't touch my food. It's mine. Not for sharing. Recommend... Crispy ribs followed by Kung Po chicken and egg fried rice. Never fails. And as a BYO.... It's a cheap night out. Book in advance. And expect service to be when ready... Might take 20 mins... Might take 45. Don't fret. They are cooking stuff fresh. So relax. You'll get glad you did.

It is a little while since I visited here but it has been my favourite restaurant in Nottingham for many years and is excellent in every respect. I do want to mention the list of services shown on Google Maps. There are two features that can not be properly edited. 1. The restaurant occupies two floors, ground and first. 2. Neither beer nor wine or any other alcoholic beverage is offered here, but you can bring your own bottle, beer, or wine, and the restaurant provides glasses free of charge, i.e., no corkage charge.

Always a lovely dinner and excellent service from Mike and the team at Mayfair. We visit a few times a year for birthdays and celebrations, and it's always a great night out. BYOB is pretty unusual these days and it's really appreciated, as gives our big group of friends the flexibility to bring what they like to drink. The hot & sour soup, the vegetable lettuce wraps and the salt & pepper tofu are all excellent. The ribs are always popular too. Mayfair is a Nottingham institution. Go, you won't be disappointed!

Real neat place with an equally neat atmosphere; popping decor; 80s bops in the background and warm lighting. Their all you can eat periods are great value and the food's quality ain't that bad. Drinks aren't included in there but there's fruit that might do the trick. The selection available might not be sufficient for some but it worked just well for me. Their service ain't bad as well, at times striking up conversation and speeding with quick service. Dantha's doing great with their duties and is very sociable. There's a good amount of tables; a bar; toilets binary and non-binary. In all, it's a cool place for a meal and to just stay a while.
