New Slow Boat in Castle Point

Burnt and overcooked very dry absolutely rubbish will not be ordering again we binned it

Delivery wait was over an hour

I get it’s Mother’s Day and busy, but the food wasn’t particularly warm when it arrived.

I have been a customer for the past twenty seven years and never had any complaints throughly recomend the slow boat and I have sampled the other Chinese takeaways on the island and this one has always been the best fantastic value for money and food tastes excellent

chicken was undercooked alil and the crispy beef was abit over cooked I know it's ment to be crispy but it was very hard

leave review come up before food delivered, rook 1hr40mins for delivery and the distance is 1.2m. food was hot but not good. never again

Delicious food at a good price and a fast delivery.

Perfect every time, taste’s better than any where else I’ve ever used!

Never a let down, tasty, my Canvey favourite 😊👍

always lovely fresh hot food. can't fault them x

Was very love food tasted very delicious and highly recommended it but it was light by 20 mins was was a bit disappointing

The food was alright, a bit bland in flavour tho and it turned up a little cold as well which is a disappointment. I usually use this place as my regular for ordering Chinese as it always comes full of flavour and piping hot.

Delicious food at a great price as always. Delivered early by a very friendly driver.

Great food, very tasty but the sweet and sour sauce was very watery but the rest was great

Great food and service as always

Always very good from slow boat! One of the best on the island

Great quality tasty food at a good price.

we pre orderd our food , but it arrived cold and congilled, a waste of £37, ad as usually its nice

First time we have used Slow Boat. Will definitely use again. Really enjoyed it. Thank you

Nice as always but delivered not so hot, not normal

First time ordered from here , food was amazing! Quick and friendly delivery! Would definitely recommend it ! Throughly enjoyed it !

Ordered as a special treat for birthday. chicken balls were nice, crispy beef was nice but the rest was really watery and didn’t have much flavour at all. Was really disappointed. It was also really expensive compared to our usual Chinese ( which was shut for holiday) which is why we tried this one. Unfortunately won’t be trying again

Terrible ordered a take away was told would be 40 mins delivery it 2 and half hrs when asked for refund wouldn't give one. Always use slow boat not now.

The most wonderful food. We thoroughly enjoyed it

The egg fried rice and curry sauce was flavourless.No complaints with the rest of the order.Not the best Chinese on the island

Need to hire more drives or stop accepting orders when too busy. Ordered food at 7.47 and at 10.07 I’m still waiting. Only ordered chips, chow mein & rice.

Always friendly and helpful food is great

A big order which was delivered on time food was fresh and hot Thankyou

Great food, great price and a fast delivery.

Collection is s always best as delivery can be quite long

Fantastic tasty food 😋😋😋 thank you slow boat 😘

Brilliant service & lovely food

Quality tasty food at a descent price and always delivery early.

Great tasty food at and good price and always delivered early.

Probably the best local Chinese in the area, but the quality has taken a dive.Curry sauce was like gravy texture.prices have also risen yet the quantity remains small.The shredded chicken chow mien came in the same size tray as the egg fried rice.

Ask for no shrimp in rice but it was put in. So won't order from here ever again

Always good hot food, good quality ingredients.

Really lovely food, good portions & always enjoy - would definitely recommend this Chinese

Great food, reasonably price and always delivered hot and early.

food was cold had to warm up in microwave

Always really hot, great tasting food.

Delicious food, well worth the money

Another great meal from Slow boat! My new favourite Chinese takeaway

Has to be one of the best Chinese meals I’ve had Would definitely order from Slow boat again

Sauces are very watery and have little to no flavor and the chicken balls were more like chicken strips.

Asked for a dish to be altered and done without any quibble. Good service

The curry was very watery like a kind of watered down gravy.was very disappointed this time.Previous order was perfect but I guess a returning customer is not important.will not use again.

Arrived in good time.Food packaging was great.Portions were great and the food was fresh, hot in temperature and definitely tasty.I would definitely recommend.

Always order from here. Decent food

High cost of lamb, only enough for four wraps should be six. Prawn balls undercooked, very doughy. Sweet and sour sauce was as thin as water and tasteless. Rice was nice.

Nice hot, tasty food. Good size portions, did me two big dinners.

Delicious and piping hot.. First time we used and would recommend

The food was good and delivery was ok

All good, tofu was lovely, egg fried rice lovely and delivered early.

Perfect as always now faster delivery it’s so much better

Food was hot when delivered and as always good quality

Always lovely and now faster delivery it’s amazing

Best Chinese on the island. Food always hot and tastes great. Highly recommend

Absolutely beautiful but so so long waiting

Ordered at 6-50pm. Arrived 9-40 Not fast food

I haven’t ordered from here in a while because last time it wasn’t aa nice as usual, I think they just had an off night, however I’m really glad to say that they seem to be back on form and I really enjoyed my dinner. I’ll definitely come back to them again soon.

Ordered at 18:10pm and finally received at 20:20pm. Tried many times to contact the restaurant to find out what was happening but no answer. The food was barely warm and flavourless, what a waste of £40 and apparently this is the best Chinese on the island, hate to think what the rest are like!

Food was good and cooked well.

Excellent food, hot and delivered early. Easy to order via Just Eat. Reasonable prices.

Delivered hot, really impressed with the meal sizes and taste

Wow - food was absolutely amazing! Fresh tasting, delicious and exactly as expected! Would highly recommend takeout from this restaurant to anyone.

Delivery was on time... Great.. we was starving .. unfortunately food was inedible. Chicken was rubber like, the BBQ sauce was orange in colour and had oil floating, separating the sauce. Husband took two mouthfuls and binned it. Spring rolls were undercooked and bit into them unable to break through from the sogginess

Food was slightly cold and not the best quality

Lovely, freshly cooked, tasty food.

Always perfect fresh and so happy

This has got to be the best Chinese I have had in a long time. Compliments to the chef

Absolutely gorgeous food, enjoyed vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, lovely delivery team, thanks New Slow Boat for another great dinner

Food hot and tasty. Only gripe is delivery expectations. Estimate said 45 minutes. Ordered then it said 60-90 minutes. Came in around 70 minutes.

Perfect as always easy the best on the island

awful service with delivery drivers… food wasn’t delivered… as they said called me many times and knocked at the door… full house at home waiting for it and no any missed calls… and still arguing… disappointed…

So I live 8mins away after 1.5hrs was told it was 10mins away, 15mins later still nothing was kept on hold for 5mins while they tried to contact the driver shocking tbh food was OK but not worth the wait

Good Chinese, bit pricey compared to others on the island but they do really nice ribs.

Excellent hot food delivered ahead of schedule delivery times are always earlier than stated

Delivery driver was very rude to us that she had to come back. she closed the gate then let the dog out when we came back in. The dog went to a main road

I use this Chinese shop regular just got something to eat from there are worst Chinese I've ever had the chips was cooked about three times the chicken balls was also cooked about 3 times the rice and Men was dry as anything I saw you could taste was cooking oil advised to do not use it

Ordering the food on here was easy and quick but after waiting 1hr 20min over the 45 minute waiting time was not great I phoned the restaurant which wasn't great as the manager wasnt about to even talk to and thwre was a new lady on the phone and admitted she hadn't used a just eat machine befor. The delivery driver was lovely and and couldn't say a bad word about her she apologised soo much. I am hoping this was a 1 off as the food wasn't that bad apart from the pancake rolls that didn't taste nice at all and I hope they change them in the future x

Usually good but not so this time. They obviously took on more orders than they could handle, the delivery took over 2 hours and unfortunately it wasn’t worth the wait. My wife ended up doing herself some toast as she was hungry and her order was not up to any kind of good standard. Sorry for the bad review but I’m just being honest.

Ordered at 6.30, turns up after 9pm. Plenty more Chinese tack aways on the island

Food was cold, portions very small and not very nice very disappointing considering it was expensive

Have ordered from here multiple times and has always been very nice, but the recent order that we just received was not nice at all and both me and my partner have thrown up after eating.

Coke missing from order but food always nice

Food was fresh, tasty and delivered hot.

Food was great and fast delivery.

Love this Chinese. Lovely food and always early x

Excellent quick service food hot

Ordered a chow mein, curry and kung po pork. They were the smallest portions I've ever seen. Only took me 10 mins to eat the lot, and it didn't even touch the sides. You couldn't feed two people on it. What a waste of 18 quid!

All the food tasted like it had sat there for and long time and been re heated.

Food was tasty but 5 mini pancakes are not actually pancakes they are spring rolls. We thought they were the thin pancakes that you’d eat with duck.

Was alright just a bit big standard wouldn’t order from here again

My order was ready to pick up at allocated time and the Meal was great as usual. This place is one of my favourites on Canvey Island. Thanks for the great meal and efficient pick up.

I have been using this Chinese takeaway for years and never disappointed.

Could have been a lot hotter.

Had to wait over 2 hours for bland food and one of the worst curry sauce's I've ever had. It's 2 starts because the satay chicken wasn't the worst, the rest, not so much.

Good food received very hot although did have to wait 1hr 15 mins from point of ordering but it was a Friday night.

Excellent food, highly recommended
