Oriental Chef in Waltham Forest

The staff our lovely and food is pretty yummy. Would recommend.

I used to work in nails salon which is opposite to you, we all love your foods. I didn't work here anymore and really miss the taste. Best chinese take away in chingford mount.

Terrible food, no flavour and not properly cooked. Rude staff. Pretty sure delivery driver was on something! They also have the nerve to write rude responses to negative reviews on just eat, rather than be professional and accept the feedback (surely they know their food is terrible!) they insult their customers! Don't waste your time or your money. You'd get better chinese food from your local Indian takeaway.

We have been waiting to experience dining in an Indian restaurant in Britain since we arrived 2 weeks ago. This restaurant was exactly what we were looking for...The dishes were so, so good, layers of exquisite taste and exceptional service from Ali. Thankyou for a taste sensation.

I ordered a takeaway New Year's Eve. The food came quickly and the order was okay. However, just a word of advice to the woman who took my order over the telephone: A friendlier manner would go along way. Your gruff attitude was a turnoff. I nearly rang back to cancel my order. It's a shame, since you were recommended by family living in Chingford and this was my first experience with your restaurant.

I’ve settled on this place as the best Chinese takeout in the area. Fast service no matter how busy there are and good food.

The food was terrible, I found to express my feelings and I was told was to wait for the boss to call you back. I had waited over an hour then I had to call again I need to be told I will be refunded two items of a £37 order, so my dinner was ribs, rice and seaweed. Completely ruined, my Meal My reply to your rude and unprofessional response! You came to my house and gave my wife the money then took off! You should have delt with me as I’m the one who made the complaint! 2) how can you make me wait 1 hour and not even call me back? Then when I CALL YOU BACK! you offer me replacement dish 1 hour later! I’m greedy you say! You’re not professional enough and need to be educated with your customer care! I still have your food waiting on my work top. You’re more than welcome to come and collect it now! I will be waiting! Come and taste for yourself the poor Quality!

The food is perfect and tasty! They have the best noodles, thin and cooked to perfection. Not soggy like the other places. The portion sizes are crazy big and prices are low. Definitely the best Chinese restaurant in the area. Will not order from anywhere else

Chinese takeaway. Nice food, quick service. Friendly staff. Parking can be a bit awkward.

It was ok. Average . The food was cold. It wasn’t that bad but i would come back again. The service was not bad.

Pleasantly surprised by the food quality, even the ribs have little fat on. Best chinese cuisine in this area Thank you

Ordered a takeaway and it was absolutely vial had a spring roll and did not taste of anything at all more of a off taste the ribs tasted off to soup was disgusting will never order from here again food is just disgusting

I went in to order some food... I found the person who took my order a bit rude, I ended up ordering less than I intended to only because I had gone all that way, and the weather was bad... that guy really needs to be mindful of the way he speaks to people. I asked a simple question, and he was rash and made me feel bad with his response, not good customer service... I was trying different Chinese restaurant around my area to establish a regualy place... my experience was off-putting, so I no longer care how the food tastes.

Not fit to eat. Chicken smelt gone off and had a foul smell. I had to bin it straight away. Rice tasted off as well. Pancake roll was soaked in oil and couldn't eat. Whole meal went straight in bin.

Lovely food and great customer service thank you 😊

如果想念家鄉味，很推薦這家的中國菜 份量多，如果有加點白飯建議兩人一起點一份即可，然後食物新鮮也好吃，而且使用的米是台灣米不是泰國長米，味道也很適宜，想家時候的好選擇。

Food is really good quality very tasty good portion and good price.

Told them no veg completely ignored it , food was very low quality honestly had to dash half

Standard is poor, lamb taste like beef very chewie. Ordered shredded duck noodles and mostly fat and skin has no taste whats so ever. Waste of £30. Absolute rip off and this place need to have a look at themselves and say to themselves can I cook Chinese dishes the answer is NO! Talk about ruin my evening. Thanks! By the way they say they can cook Thai dishes....they can't!

I love their food. The best gyozas I ever ate in my life. So delicious, juicy and full of fillings. I always order a beef in a black bean sauce and it’s just amazing. The lady at the front she’s always taking care of me and also very polite!

Ordered thru website and menu is not labelled correctly. Really poor. Ordered item which was labelled with a fish and spicy sign turns out had pork to. Then when I can to complain lady argues and says I should of said no pork. I didn't dream it had pork if it is incorrectly labelled or not labelled at all. Lady was argumentative and could of easily put the matter right Also Ordered some other items poor quality and bland. Really poor Avoid

Tasty and fresh food with lovely extras. Generous portions and even got FORTUNE COOKIES! Entertaining delivery driver. We'll definitely be ordering again, thanks

Food Hygiene Rating Zero 🤮 Ok well done from going from Zero rating to 3 ⭐

The food is amazing very tasty and it come to us nice and hot would recommend this takeaway and the services was quick

Quick delivery on Boxing Day, very nice Chinese food (though I'd prefer medium noodles to the very thin noodles they provide) and free prawn crackers. Would order again form here.

Good was lovely. Highly recommended.

Always lovely tasty food, arrives quickly and a great, friendly service. Definitely would recommend.

Always a pleasure ordering from these guys, they never get the order wrong and the food is always as good as it taste !

Don't know if they changed their chef . Ordered special fried rice and received boiled rice with a few peas and shrimps . Nothing special about my rice. Beef noodles, lacked beef. Food bland and tastless. No! I don't have covid, the food was just bad.

I ordered from this restaurant for the first time and the food is amazing no grease at all was very delicious

Absolutely disgusting and that’s fair putrid really avoid I can’t believe how bad it is so vile better to lick my wok

Hands down one of the best Chinese takeaways I've had. The House Special Pork is excellent, probably the best dish on the menu. Very fast delivery, piping hot and reasonable prices. Great portion sizes too.

I have discovered them very recently and I continue coming back whenever I am fancy of something Chinese. They have great customer service: I call and they know my address and what I placed an order on last time, it makes me feel welcome. I ordered tonight crispy rolls instead of spring rolls to try and in the bag, I could find a small portion of spring rolls free of charge just in case. Thank you, it appeared that my son was looking for spring rolls anyway. I can always count on help with card payment, the portions are huge and amazingly good. We will stay regular customers for you.

Consistently provides enjoyable dishes, never under whelming

I ordered from them this evening and they are saying they have delivered the order but haven't. They have said they tried ringing me but I didn't have any missed calls. I rang the restaurant at 8:30pm to ask where the food was (over an hour after ordering) and was told the driver was on their way but received no call from the driver. I received an email from Just Eat saying they were outside at 8:58 and I went downstairs straight away and they were not there. I rang the restaurant and was shouted at by the staff and the driver. At first they said that they were outside ringing me and then changed their story to say they couldn't find the building. This is untrue as we ordered from elsewhere this evening and they delivered fine. I also saw 4 or 5 delivery drivers come in to the building when I went downstairs. There is also a person on reception who said no one else came in to ask for our address. The staff and driver didn't let me speak and continued to shout over me, eventually I was so upset at the rudeness, I had to put the phone down. This is appalling, I urge people not to go here when they can be so unbelievably rude to paying customers.

They have a very good cuisine with so many different flavours Great food... all the best for them

DISGUSTING is all I can say. Please read the reviews and take notice. I never complain but this needs to be shared. Food was LATE, and even then they had missed TWO items, which took another 40mins. Taste was appalling. Ordered Special Fried Rice which was far from special. It was like boil in the bag rice, NOT FRIED and had very few bits in it and there was absolutely NO TASTE! The Thai Green Chicken Curry made me puke after two mouthfuls, it was like urine and was definitely NOT Chicken. Lastly the 'Crispy' Spring Roll was so far from crispy it resembled a wet fish dripping in oil, again TASTELESS! I will NEVER EVER be buying from here again! EVER!

We have been ordered our food from this place for many years..And as loyal customers we been given the loyalty card. Today we order the food and we try to show them the loyalty card and the new owner just ignored it.saying it's the old owners loyalty card which the new owner been stamping it so many times we've ordered...So the loyalty card been ignored and the food we ordered was not all.. You just lost your loyal customer...bad attitude towards customers...

I order the beef ho fun, in fact, it's flat noodle, not ho fan, there's a difference between them, Cinese should know.

It was great , I ordered over the phone and ready in 20 mins delivery . Food was hot , will recommend to everyone . Thanks

Horrible food, salty, greasy and over priced! This used to be the best Chinese for miles but then it was taken over and the new management have changed the chef, menu and hygiene standards. I will never visit this place again.

Terrible food really very greasy and salty I actually threw it away I found it inedible.............. even the dig didn’t like the ribs ha

Very good food. Did a gluten free option for me - very tasty

Ordered from Oriental Chef Chingford for my daughters birthday party. Ordered for 15 people and the food came on time and piping hot. Everything was perfect and will definitely reccomend them.

bad cooking skills,I ordered prawns which they where undercooked,why I checked them because did happen to me bfr,so I went home and need it to cook them more,so always check all meats done properly this undercooked meats can happen anywhere even turkish kebabs which undercooked meats are health problems.As well they don't put the right info on the menu about prawns,so they give you breaded prawns which they are rubbish .

This use to be 5 star however now new management have come in they have changed the menu, increased the prices and decreased the portion sizes. The noddles were so salty they were inedible and the food overall was poor. Used to visit regularly but will not be going back.

Rice overcooked. The fish cakes is total nonsense...

Very reasonable food on the go?

the best Chinese food in East London

First time ordering from this takeaway and the food was very nice, was hot when delivered, and we didn't wait long for it to be delivered.

Excellent Chinese I would definitely recommend them 👍🏻

Very fast and good quality chinese

One of the best of its kind in this area

Really bad, the food arrived cold, the driver messed up payment and the manager was very rude when speaking to her, one star is being generous mate

Ordered for home delivery, recieved and was charged for 2 extra meals. I returned meals myself for refund and was verbally abused. Very rude!! Am I supposed to pay for and keep food I never ordered? According te Oriental Chefs management YES!!

Good selection of dishes Good standard of food

This Chinese is delicious. I travel 6 miles to get my takeaway from here because I am yet to find a better one. Every dish is lovely, the prices are reasonable and the portion sizes are generous. I absolutely love this takeaway!

Great food been the best for years!

Woeful. Ordered for delivery the delivery driver turned up without any change at all and saying if I gave him the £20 he would return. Ordered the vegetable pad Thai with no onions and the vegetarian option. The dish turned up with shrimp in it and onions. One star is being generous for this rubbish. Please avoid at all costs. I don't usually write reviews but this was so bad I had to. Terrible experience.

Served nice fresh food. Best Chinese food around. Quick and very friendly service. Would recommend and use again.

The food is brilliant. None like other. Must try to believe

Great chinese. Shame it's not ideal for dining in
