New Oriental Chinese Take Away. in Leeds

I was looking forward to trying New Oriental after seeing their Just Eat ratings. Unfortunately, my experience was underwhelming. I ordered the fried soft noodles, satay chicken, and crispy fried chicken. The fried noodles were quite plain, lacking any real depth of flavour or seasoning. They were soft, as expected, but were a little uninspired. The satay chicken, which I had hoped would be rich and aromatic, was very mild – barely any hint of the usual peanut or spice notes you’d expect from a proper satay sauce. And the crispy fried chicken, was not crispy. Overall, everything was cooked well enough in terms of texture, but the flavours just didn’t come through. It all felt quite bland and forgettable. A real shame – a bit more seasoning and punch in the sauces could have made a big difference.

The chicken noodle soup was great. However the crispy chilli beef was slightly overcooked, making it too crunchy. The sauce was nice though. Had the potential to very good. So don’t want to judge them on one dish.

Rice was overcooked and in clumps, tasted funny..! Kung Po special had very little meat in it and NO Cashew nuts..! And I specifically requested "No onions" but there were masses in it which for me made it barely eatable...!! I will never order again

Fantastic quality of food and delivered very hot.

Great food, tasted good. came quick and hot. sauce was forgotten but mistakes happen.

best Chinese in LS16 and surrounding areas.

Fantastic quality and tasty food. Delivered very hot.

can never fault the food. always hot & on time...but above all very nom nom

Asked to a substitute mushrooms for beef for a vegetarian but was sent mushrooms with beef. Otherwise fine.

amazing food, absolutely gorgeous soups and very healthy portion definitely gonna order from here again 10/10

Outstanding food never fails to impress delicious 😋

Food is fine had no issues,price is reasonable , I waited in my car until my order was ready and it was brought to me.

Won’t order again, really disappointed

Really nice tasty food bang on ‼️

Advertised time 25-40. Once ordered, 40-60. Actually 1h20 and food was cold.

Really great food. Not over coloured or greasy. Hot, tasty and brilliant.

Really tasty food, good portion came piping hot

Nice food at a reasonable price, great delivery lad!!

About 15 minutes late but that was OK. The food was lovely and good value for money. Will definitely be ordering from here again. Oh, and completely random, but we got free plums too which made us smile 😃 😊

Always enjoy our food from here. Super quick and delicious 😋

The food was lovely and quick delivery

Beautiful delicious great portion size, value & price & courteous, efficient, delivery Plus lovely free prawn crackers Don't miss out Definitely highly recommend

Asked for a simple change to meal. No change made. Not even a call to confirm…

Had the same order a few months ago and was delicious. this one was soggy, spring rolls included. really disappointed

Food was fantastic and super hot on delivery.

Some of it nice and some not great. The duck spring rolls were expensive and I didn’t see any duck in them at all. Beef in black bean sauce was lovely and the salt and pepper chips but the chicken balls were terrible. So I think this take away is hit and miss.

Perfect food excellent quality

I've ordered from New Oriental lots of times. The food is always very good! 10/10 from me, thank you.

Missed them when they were on holiday, tried somewhere else and had to throw it away

Very nice food, tasty, good portion, fresh will order again

Best Chinese food in Leeds 16 and beats surrounding areas by Quality and Price. Family owned business by lovely and friendly Chinese people.

Ordered at 8.10, when ordering it said 35 to 45 mins delivery. When order put through it said 9.05 to 9.20. To be fair, they called at 9.05 to say that it would be 15 mins late, 20 mins later I rang up to be told it would be another 15 to 20 mins. When it came the meals weren't labelled so it was hard to tell what meal was what and one of the meals had quite a bit of gristle in it. Will not be buying from here again

The food was nice enough but very expensive. Pancake rolls used to be around £3.60. They are now £5.60. Chicken fried rice is £8. I understand that prices have had to go up, but a three and a half quid item going up by £2 isn't right. For chicken fried rice, pancake rolls and a salt and pepper box delivered was nearly £36. For two people. It would be ten quid cheaper at Cherry Tree.

excellent hot tasty food & fast delivery as always

late by an hour and quality no better than an average Chinese. plenty more options in the area so won't order again.

Very late. Called to learn where the food was and the person on the phone instantly said 15mins albeit the app said the driver left 15mins prior. After asking for partial refund due to food being ordered at 8:20pm and food still not here at 9:47 the person said they would call the driver back and give him (to give to me) a free bottle of coke! There is no planet where this would ever make logical sense. Shocking customer service!

Salt and pepper chips were covered in an overpowering/inedible amount of cinnamon. Rest of the meal wasnt the greatest and most of it went in the bin. £25 wasted. Wont be ordering here again

Beautiful fresh hot food & speedy delivery

Probably one of the best Chinese Take-away around. Love ordering from this place. 👍🏽👍🏽

Order late even though it said delivered on here. Joke

Lovely food delicious delivered hot and fresh thank you 👍👍

Always order from here for delivery, food comes pretty quickly, is always hot and really tasty and consistent. Best Chinese in the LS16/18 area in my opinion and I've tried loads!

I haven’t received it I want my money, all my food

Generally the food was good. One of the dishes was wrong. We ordered shredded chicken. what came looked like chicken nuggets in sauce. We didn't enjoy that one but the rest was good.

The meal was delivered on time and was lovely one of the best ive had. Well priced and i will defo be re- ordering my food from here.

Best Chinese takeaway I've ever had and lovely people running the place. My wife loves the honey chilli chicken especially, we've had quite a few things and the roast duck fried rice is excellent as well.

Ordered for the first time. The food was delicious, portion sizes were huge and I’m quite fussy with my Chinese food! Will definitely be ordering again

Fabulous as ever . Thanks guys.

Our go to place for a take away we never use anywhere else fresh hot food delivered by polte lovely peoplev

Really good, fresh, tasty. Thank you!!

These guys are amazing, great food, superb service and super fast delivery. I highly recommend.

Amazing food best Chinese I’ve had in a long time, food was a bit late but we at least got a text telling it was going to be the case rather than chasing.

Ordered a variety of dishes and all were really nice. Fresh and flavoursome!

lovely food, delivered hot, 4th order now, and no complaints, same delivery driver and he always has a smile.

Superb service, great food would recommend.

I have always had nice food from this Chinese . Never any complaints

Was happy food was early so no issues. Delivery driver friendly and food was delicious.

Great Chinese takeaway, always delicious and on time. Our go to takeaway, highly recommended

Beautiful food , fresh & hot & very enjoyable

Children working at the front counter is strange and should be at home. I believe that's illegal anyway. The food and service are decent, but the place needs improvement. It's a very old-school establishment, but everything else is fine.

Won't order Chinese food from anywhere else

Food was really good and while the order was late being delivered they did ring before it was due to let me know which I thought was impressive

Arrived hot and fresh. Lovely food as always. Thank you!

A very nice experience. Good service. Good food.

Amazing Experience, we ordered a takeout through Just Eat and was ready early, great service, nice atmosphere, and most importantly nice warm food

Lovely fresh hot food & delivered on time by polite driver

Great food, very warm and good portions.

Delivered quickly. Delicious and hot, good portion sizes.

First time ordering and last time, not overly impressed at all unfortunately

The first time we have ordered from here and it was amazing. The food was really hot and the quality of the food was brilliant. So tasty! We will be ordered again :-)

Good hot food. Water Chestnuts tasted abit woody. Driver did not come to the door.

The food was hot and lovely, the driver who delivered the food was very friendly and proffesinal

Food was tasteless and was not presentable just thrown in a box. Will not be ordering again from here.

The ok sauce dish was bland and greasy. The chicken wasn’t in a crispy batter. The starters were dry and very little meat on the spare ribs. Bit disappointed.

Everything that came was cold. The chips just looked and tasted like they had been rewarded several times then left for 20 mins to go cold again.

First time ordering from here, not sure why as they’re literally up the road but it was absolutely spot on. My partner ordered a chop suey not even knowing what it was.. but said it was delicious, his new favourite 😂 will be ordering all the time now.

Plenty of food came nice and hot , but had no flavour , paid £2 for some gravy that had zero flavour usually chinese gravy is full of flavour but not this one I won't be ordering again

1/4 duck and chicken in black bean with egg fried rice ordered both great! Will order again

Excellent food, we both really enjoyed our meals and good value as well

Great takeaway food. Use it when we have a family get-together. They all clear their plates

Black bean watery but otherwise good

Wrong item delivered, nice but not what I was expecting

Compared to last time, this was quite a letdown. My satay was more like a chop suey with a touch of chilli, but no taste of peanut whatsoever.

It's been quite some time since I last ordered from here and I wasn't disappointed. The food was fresh, tasty and top quality, just like I remember it to be. The driver was prompt and polite. All in all, it was a very pleasant experience.

As always the food was delicious and exactly what was ordered. Will definitely order from the New Oriental again.

Disappointed. Food ok but delivery is shockingly slow.

Beautiful food, cooked well with great taste, definitely my new favourite and didn’t even know it was around the corner. 10/10

Great good found out new Chinese takeaway of choice

Sauces were a bit thin but otherwise really lovely food.

Unfortunately the order was not complete - only two items out of six arrived at first. Took two further attempts to deliver full order. However, it was very nice when it had all arrived.

Our new favourite Chinese restaurant. Delicious!

If the driver left when I was told they did, my food was driving around for over 40 minutes. However, upon arrival the food was hot and tasted extremely fresh. I appreciate that it was a busy evening, but I’m not comfortable with the idea that the food is sat in the back of a car for 40 minutes. Despite this, I would order again as it was delicious. I get the impression that perhaps the app was updated incorrectly and the driver had not actually left with our food.

Great food, definitely recommend

Lovely piping hot fresh food. Very tasty. Only thing that let it down was one of the dishes wasn't quite what we ordered. Still very tasty.

Too many Chinese takeaways seem allergic to vegetables in their dishes, but this was a nice balance of meat, flavour and veg. Really enjoyed the meal

We ordered prawn toast but it was chicken not prawn and ordered sweet and sour chicken balls but got no suace so just battered chicken

Noodles were missing from order

Excellent, authentic, and delicious Chinese food!

Food was lovely would defo go back, delivery was late but they did call to say would be late which was appreciated.

The outlet rang to say that they would be 20 mins late, but on the website it is showing as delivered ! Do not be fooled!
