Mwah Dim Sum Bar in Hastings

No expectations of the seafront restaurant, but were blown away. The quality and range of dishes is wide for most people's tastes, with nice portion slzes and presented well. We chose from the mwah bowls, soups and special fried rice. Would definitely return, a real gem of a place.

food was made quick and fresh. delivery was fast, piping hot when it got here

didn't receive the order at all

Brilliant service great food good price & funky decor

First time in, gotta say the service was excellent! Not badly priced and the food was lovely! And big thanks to Phoebe for a fantastic service and really cool to chat with, you're awesome!

There was too much salt in the mwah pot, completely inedible. The sticky ribs rice was not fully cooked. Kinda shocked at how bad it was today

Really really tasty food, good portions and really quick order to table Would definitely recommend

Food was so good. Noodles, chicken, duck and dumplings cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. Fast friendly service and family friendly

Great place to dine with friends or family, nice seaview and amazing food.

Freshly cooked food, not great value compared with chinese takeaways, chow mein £2 more per portion and not as much meat. If you like food without any added flavourings its probably for you but I prefer a bit more seasoning etc.

food was amazing, unfortunately the driver got lost. I know the drivers are nothing to do with the restaurant and the delay on delivery did not effect the quality of the food. 10/10 would absolutely recommend to anyone else!

They never delivered my food aaaahhhhh

Best chinese in town! Great portions, food is so nice and also alot healthier than your average chinese. Staff taking your order are also always so kind and friendly. Will always come here!

There was no broth, just dry noodles and chicken. one piece of broccoli.

Really tasty food. Friendly service. Good value

Delicious food as always, lovely delivery driver. All round 5*

Whenever we come down to Hastings, this is a must eat. Hands down the best flavoured Chinese we have ever had. Lovely staff. Hot tasty food :) not too bad price £40 for two people. Can’t recommend enough

Really love this place generally but had a terrible experience tonight. Ordered food. Order accepted, food due in an hour, hour ends, driver apparently in restaurant awaiting delivery then as it approaches closing time they cancelled the order without explanation or apologies. No contact from restaurant just a note telling me this in delivery site beyond when food was due. No answer when I called to ask why. Really poor service

Would absolutely not recommend . Ordered via Uber eats and order cancelled 3 minutes before delivery was due. No food, no apology or explanation. Appalling! Avoid like the plague!

mwah pot is so overpriced. 2 dumplings and some chicken Noodles for 14 pounds. shocking.

Very nice food and the place is nicely designed

Served diet coke which is expired on 2022

TLDR, good vegetarian/vegan options, particularly the vegetables and sticky rice. Super good value for money. I will 100% return, maybe even today. The food was fantastic, particularly the taro sticky rice, which amazed me. The dumplings were also delicious. I was a bit disappointed by the salt and pepper tofu, as it was too dry for me, however the veg was tastier than it had a right to be. The staff were super friendly, and although I didn't sit in, I love the look of the place. Came out to £30 for 2 hungry people with leftovers for breakfast.

Didn’t send prawn crackers and sent the wrong noodles I ordered tofu and I got sent chicken overall poor experience I wouldn’t consider eating here again

Very bland chow mein and ribs Wer inbarrasingly small.very bad food for the money

Food was ok, not much flavour in the noodles and buns but the prawn dumplings were tasty. Wasn’t worth the money

Never disappointed with a Mwah x

Order delivery time was changed 3 times was ordered at was ordered at 18.40 and didn't come till 20.20 roughly and the food wasn't amazing quality which was a shame as never had food from this place before and was excited to try it as heard really good things 😞

The restaurant had to wait for a driver to be assigned food was meant to arrive at 7.30 it eventually came at 9.30

Gave us pork instead of chicken for one dish but still delicious

The food was so bland never again

Really poor service. Didn’t include dipping sauce which is essential for dim sum!

Great place to eat, take out or eat in. Clean, fresh food. Great cider too. Cool bathtub chair.

food was incredibly tasty the dim sum was delicious, would highly recommend, Quality service Excellent food, fast delivery.

Love the atmosphere here - menu printed on the tables so no fighting over the menus, nice led lighting and great food.

This is just as good as take out. But amazing in restaurant to. A real family run business. Something to support.

Lovely staff but food is nothing special. Oily and salty and a little overpriced for pretty small portions.

This place is a very poor example of Chinese Asian food. Sweet and sour was red sugar sauce thrown over dry chicken nugget pieces. Sticky rice came unwrapped and tasted stale and old. The only good thing was the two white boys service who were friendly and polite. Surprised that reggae music was playing in a Chinese restaurant but liked the decor lights and logo of the business. Food was just about eatable but soon felt buyers remorse afterwards for standard fish n chips. Asians would be embarrassed about the taste of this food Not authentic at all x

Was excited to go here for a change from fish n chips. Salt and pepper chicken was dry rubbery didn't taste salty at all. Got a sweet and sour dip to go with it which was horrible, taste of sugar and looked like something you shouldn't eat. However my partner enjoyed his noodles. Maybe I ordered the wrong dish.

Went for the first time to try it. Two stars because some dishes were ok. The pork chow main was not the best. The bad thing was that my son found a bug crawling in his rice and the staff came back from the kitchen and said "it couldn't have been from the kitchen", well it was inside the rice, it s not like I placed a bug in there. We left disappointed and will never return.

Fresh, hot and on time as usual! 5⭐️

Our food was awful the £8.95 soup had 2 prawns and 2 tiny pieces of duck in bland water

Loved the service we had at this restaurant and will definitely return when we come back to Hastings thank you.

Amazing authentic food, the staff were so friendly and allow us to bring in our well behaved dog. Food was so tasty and fresh, lovely atmosphere

Good Food in recent times and good service once ordered. Price of food and drinks reasonable. Take Out available.

Our order was well worth the wait. Really delicious food, fresh and authentic tasting. No hint of any artificial elements accustomed to many oriental take away meals

Unfortunately food was tasteless reality disappoint I use to eat at restaurants and it was always tasty but this time was not good

Very lovely food and lovely welcoming staff. Thank you. Will definitely be back when back this side.

Mwah is a eatery with basic tables and chairs, a bit dirty and grubby inside. You can also sit outside weather permitting. I’ve eaten here twice now but doubt we’d return after today. It is obvious that very cheap ingredients are being used despite food not being particularly cheap. Whilst I did enjoy the dumplings and the steamed rice the sweet and sour chicken balls were slightly pink inside. The chicken was clearly processed poor quality and not real chicken meat. It clearly had lots of additives and chopped shaped chicken inside. We had to ask for a Highchair to be wiped down as it was filthy. There was no cutlery or napkins and we had to ask for some. We were given 3 napkins and 4 forks but no spoons or knives. Service was order and pay at the till, it wasn’t great. Meal was ok and extremely hot but quality of the food was really disappointing. Poor quality food is not for us. We won’t be back.

I didn’t get the chips I ordered

Nice place simple enough menu, the food was of a fairly good standard. If you are looking for a casual lunch by the seaside it's actually a good choice.

Really bad value for money. 7 prawn balls for £7 ish quid is like £1 each! Noodle soup, very very expensive for what you get. There are much better value places around the area. I won’t use this place again

Just amazing food, as it always is! I wish I could pick a favourite out of all the dim sum but I can’t because they’re all so tasty.

Great restaurant, excellent portions for the price and friendly service. Made an off menu item for us (thank you!). Really wish we could get delivery in Bexhill.

The delivery driver couldn’t find my address - despite it being clear in address info - so I had to go out in the rain to find him. When he gave me my food he’d spilt the soup out all over the bag ruining the whole order. I tried calling restaurant to deal with this but no answer. Presume you’ve shut. I’m expecting a full refund please

Awful delivery exp. Took almost 2 hours when it should have been 20-35 mins had to eat something else as was so hungry so paid for food I now don't need as no way to cancel the order shocking service just eat

The best Chinese experience in hastings. The sweet chilli tofu is to die for!

everything was really tasty, hot and easily the best takeaway i've had in a while!

I really wanted to like this place but the food was dreadful. Vegetable spring rolls didn’t have a vegetable in them and sweet and sour prawns were tasteless and doughy. So disappointing

Food was ok nothing to write home about. We were surprised at how small the portions of noodles were. Came away still hungry having had starters and a main meal each.

Best take away we’ve had in a long time

Hot, tasty exactly what I wanted..... will defo order again

Very disappointed with low standard of fried noodles that were mushy and the duck was old and hard - will steer clear in future

usually come here and love the food. placed an order tonight after eating nothing all day and they didn’t deliver the order (through deliveroo) as they ‘gave me a notification but i did not respond’ which is a lie considering i’ve been on my phone all evening and did not receive anything.

Quick little dim sum place, great fast service, great food

Waited 40 minutes and no food was ready

Had to wait an hour and a half for my food. Only plus was that it was still warm when it got here.

The food was absolutely sub standard mostly tasteless and the manager is rude. A really shame as used to be amazing.

Absolutely amazing! First time I've eaten on after getting takeaway and adore it! Great restaurant, amazing food! I love it°

Siu mai and dumplings were amazing! But the chicken balls were undercooked. The chicken was still pink in the middle. We just cooked them again as can’t be bothered to call and wait for replacement.

Lovely tasty food .Good value staff friendly

Great food and great service. Thanks for looking after our big crew and all our chaotic orders!

Not sure if it was the end of the day and cjef was tired, but one of the worst tasting foos I have ever eaten. The sweet and saur chicken was sugar syrup with red colour. Noodles were over boiled, less salted, and some of them didn't even touch the wok. Never again.

Second time we have been, great food very fresh and hot and filling. Will definitely be back soon. Nice little place and friendly staff

Very nice food, friendly staff. Reasonable prices, all cooked freshly

Really really dirty!! Food was barely edible I will NEVER EVER return to this place. I think they should be embarrassed with the hygiene and quality of the food... let's see how I feel tomorrow 🤢🤢🤢

When we went the food was bad quality and the restaurant was not nice to be in, won't be going back unfortunately! Hope somebody opens up a high quality Chinese in Hastings soon...

Had a whole bunch of the dumplings and buns as a mix match dinner at home for myself. Most of the food was okay but was shocked at how little meat was put inside the buns. Buns are the size of a tennis ball and yet only about a level teaspoon of meat inside which was very disappointing.

Food was amazing and prices were very reasonable. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent food, cooked traditionally. Good place, basic, no frill or fuss small eatery, no table service, but what a lovely find, with hearty food.

Try to look past the garish paint job and the rather odd, un-Asian name, because the food here is really good. There's a range of steamed, grilled and fried dim sum, as well as fried rice, noodles, buns and more standard Chinese dishes. In particular, the fried elements like the sweet chili chicken were on point. It would be nice if the worn furniture and uncomfortable benches could be replaced with modern, clean standard tables and chairs, though... it would improve the vibe no end.

Nice service and a tasty, fresh vegan selection for a good price!

Excellent food. Great customer service. The chef got one of our dishes wrong but was very quick to fix it and gave a complimentary beer for the mistake. Very tasty and fresh food. Highly recommend.

Amazing food piping hot amazing portion sizes would 100% recommend and order again.

We were overall pleased with this experience, the restaurant had a warm vibe, with a welcoming staff and environment. The staff were lovely although the decor was a little plain. As soon as we came in, we were seated, then our food came quickly. One of us ordered a Mwah Bowl, which was delicious, as were the steamed prawn dumplings. I highly recommend them! The pork bun was delicious, and seemed to be made with a lot of love. Also, someone working there, who seemed to be the manager, couldn’t have been more kind and attentive. Would definitely come here again! And we highly recommend it for a quick dinner! :)

Great for takeaways eat in basic and quirky

Amazing little place. Freshly cooked and tasty food. Highly recommended and as for Charlotte, such a star. She simply couldn't have done enough. Thank you

The food was quite good. But I have to say that the restaurant was not exactly clean - specially the toilet.

Amazing gyozas. Good vegan options ☺️

Good taste and freshly made. The portion is a bit small or at least the rectangle dish makes it look small but still okish on fulfilment. Vibe is nice to hangout without loud music.

Not as good as usual. Not sure what went wrong in the kitchen.

I’ve been here before but I went again recently and I was sadly let down massively. The Sui Mai was genuinely inedible, they smelled like perfume and tasted like dog food. The steamed prawn dumplings were stale and hard. As a student it’s very hard to see £18 go to waste on food that i didn’t even eat or enjoy. Would appreciate some form of compensation.

Lovely place lovely staff and lovely food !

We received a phone call to say that our food would be a little late. This is excellent customer service because our expectations were managed. Food arrived hot delivered by cheerful driver. Good sized portions and great food.

Great service, delicious food, my only regret was had no cash to tip delivery driver as I moved in today and couldn't find anything. Definitely order again from them!

Love this place, it always has such fresh tasty food at great prices plus lots of options for veggies and vegans too. The food is always so clean tasting, not covered in sugary, sticky sauces like so many Chinese restaurants, the noodle soups and prawn dumplings are divine! They deliver too and are usually super fast, can highly recommend this top spot, great value all round.

Food was lovely, early and nice and hot, would recommend and will be ordering again 😋 thank you

Gem of a restaurant. I used the app for service, which was really easy to use, but you could just order from the counter as well. Service was friendly and the food was fresh, vibrant and tasty. Very reasonable prices for the quality of the food. Couldn't ask for much more really.

I was there a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed the food & the chilled out atmosphere of this little restaurant, the middle aged man (I think the owner), very cheerful with the customers and kind to his staff really impressed me. I went back today, I had exactly the same experience, I love this place. The food is good, in good portions, well presented and fair priced. I made this my pit stop when I go to Hastings, today I was in Battle, jumped on the bus, had dinner there and back to Battle for the bonfire night...that is how special Mwah is to me!

Loved this we had an excellent meal
