New Golden Chef has very competitive pricing and fast service, but was overall lacking. I ordered a very basic meal of Cantonese Sweet and Sour Chicken with Egg Fried Rice and all I could taste was salt, I also noticed their hygiene rating has recently gone down, so I doubt I'll be ordering again.

Always good food, never had anything I didn't like from here. They will try to make up a dish not on the menu if you ask.

First time using. Two out of three dishes really not good. Kung Po sauce more like bitter gravy. Special fried rice similar. Third meal was good (duck) but all very salty. Overall not a great experience. Told after we arrived to collect that it’s cash only.

Ordered food for 4. 2 of our dishes were ok. 2 were poor. King prawn Kung Po was inedible - v strange sauce. All dishes were v salty. Had a poor night’s sleep - dehydrated and headachy. Prob MSG in food too. Won’t return.

Ordered from here when staying at a local touring park. Collected the food and it was amazing. Would highly recommend. Crispy Shredded Chicken in Chilli Sauce is one of the best I've tasted. Will 100% be returning.

One of the best Chinese takeaways I’ve had in years!!! Very reasonably priced too. Only complaint is that we ordered on the phone for collection, we were told a time to collect and we ended up stood waiting for 30 mins after that time. Luckily the food was worth the long wait.

Worst Chinese EVER! Hot and sour soup was like gruel. The rest of the food was the absolute worst I have tasted. Never again.

Food was superb - quantity and quality. Had to wait a long time, probably due to the other Chinese nearby being closed. Highly recommend.

Worst chinese I have ever been to. The sweet n sour chicken Cantonese tasted like yesterday's left overs put in sauce and microwaved. Tasted off, microwaved chicken with wet stodgy batter. Nothing tasted right and ended up in the bin.

I’ve lived in Whitchurch for 8 yrs and this Chinese comes top of my list. They are always friendly and their food is always top notch. I don’t mind waiting if they are busy. Good service and food is worth waiting for.

Tried this Chinese as our usual one was extremely busy, but certainly won’t make that mistake again. Firstly our meals were nearly 25 minutes late and I was fobbed off a few times with ‘sorry we are busy’. I did finally get a small discount after speaking to 4 separate people, and that’s why they have 2 stars instead of 1. The sweet and sour was pretty much flavourless, as were the prawn crackers, which also tasted stale. The rest of the meal was purely flavoured with salt. Really not at all appetising and will just wait next time for my usual takeaway.

After having tried the competition I can safely say that Golden Chef is the better takeaway in the area. - Price is more then reasonable. - Food quality is very good. Will be coming back again.

When I come to Whitchurch i always have something from here. It has to be Chicken, chips,peas and gravy. The gravy is like a sauce. I have no idea how they make it but it's the best gravy ever! Highly recommended.

Hot and sour soup was horrid. It was impossible to eat as were the spare ribs(sitting in a hard burned sauce). The whole meal was horrible please don't believe the reviews on their site. Unless you have twenty six pounds to waste. I gave 1 star for yet I don't know why.🤬

The best Chinese in Whitchurch. My favourite being Duck in Black Pepper Sauce. The portion size is enormous and the duck is absolutely gorgeous. All the Chinese Takeaways in Whitchurch are very good, but this one never falters.

I rang to order on Sat 4th Aug. When I arrived to collect, they wouldn't accept card payments (you need to get into the 21st century, people!) so I had to rush to a cashpoint and then didn't stop to tally up what I should have been charged - ie, about £15. On return, I hurriedly paid about £26 before my food went cold. I then discovered back at home that they'd given me two of several items, so I rang to complain but of course I couldn't get through as it was constantly engaged by that time. It's not as if I rang at a busy time or was unclear with my order (one chicken Chow Mein, one Sweet & Sour chicken and one Dim Sum - not difficult, guys!) and more to the point, the Chow Mein was horribly salty.. Rest assured I won't be using this place again.

After waiting an hour and 15 minutes for just a few things (chips gravy and rice and fruity chicken and chips) we gave up waiting! Not once apologised to or spoken to! In fact all she seemed to want to do is hide in the back, the people before us had ordered on the phone been told 50 minutes and ended up waiting 1 hour and 40, she never apologied until he told her off then she got a meek 'sorry' before running back into the back, there food was sitting there about 20 minutes while she waited for chips so there food is probably cold. Will not go there ever again! Disgusting!

Used to enjoy Chicken Ceylon but evidently it is not the same dish anymore, perhaps the chef has changed but there is very little evidence of any coconut and it now tastes like any other curry dish. Disappointed.

Ordered a small chicken kebab yesterday, the chicken was delicious, fresh and plenty of salad…. Naan bread was thick and good quality , not a skinny thing …..

We have eaten here on previous occasions and have had nice food and good service in the past but not on this occasion . I booked this meal out for my wife’s birthday meal on Saturday night which all 9 of us were really looking forward to. I dropped the birthday cake and balloons for the table off earlier that day as I wanted to make the night special. We were very disappointed from start to finish! From the waitress who was rude and miserable who was attending our table she really shouldn’t be waiting on tables with an attitude like she had. We waited an age to get drinks to our table when they did eventually came out it was in dribs and drabs very slow service. Two of the drinks had to go back as they were mocktails not cocktails. When the food was brought to the tables we were handed the plates and not warned that the plates were hot my daughter and myself nearly dropped them. my wife ordered the steak well done as she always has it, it was so overcooked and dry it was barely edible, not once were we asked if the food was okay and no one came over to ask if everything was okay. But the table behind us which was a party of approx 6 who obviously knew some of the staff were attended by at least 3 staff and looked after so much it’s shame they couldn’t look after all their customers like that. Once again the food was brought out in such slow succession that when we started to eat some of the food was just warm. The final straw was when we were ordering the food I noticed that on the back of the menu it stated if you had a birthday there the person whose birthday it was received a free meal. However when I went to pay the bill I noticed that my wife’s inedible steak was on there. When I then mentioned to the waitress about what it said on the menu even though she’d served us all night saw the balloons on the table and even brought the birthday cake to the table she told me I’d have to prove it was her birthday. This just put the icing on what was an awful birthday meal. When I explained you’ve just served us the cake and why would I spend £50 on a birthday cake just to get a £30 steak free. She then smirked at me and said I can’t do it anyway I’ll have to get the restaurant manager. I would seriously reconsider eating here again. Your waiting staff seriously need some manners when serving customers. Thank you for ruining my wife’s birthday meal.
