I didn’t wanted to leave this review. Why spent minimum £15 on card payments & Anything below that cash only. I run a business my self and card company don’t charge that much unless you are hiding from HMRC. Who carries cash now a days.

Massive portions at very affordable prices. The food was hot, the Lady on the phone took the time to ensure there was no pork in my dishes on special request, she was very patient with me. Food is delicious and did not make me feel extremely thirsty like other restaurants, it wasn’t overly salted and I ate a lot and don’t feel bloated. FANTASTIC RESTAURANT THIS PLACE IS A GEM.

I had the most awful experience yesterday after ordering 2 lots of special fried rice and ribs. The food I received was burnt, stale (from I suspect the Friday 26th when they were supposed to be open) and cold. I called the shop and told them and the woman was so rude to me and refused to refund me. She denied everything not knowing I’d already tested it for bacteria ( have worked in the food industry for years) it came up positive. She then sent a new batch of the Same food again! And stoped answering my calls. Unfortunately I will have to report this because this is absolutely disgusting and both batched had a significant amount of bacteria indicating that my suspicions were correct. Risking your restaurant to “batch cook” as you said is just disgusting when you’re not using fresh food.

Took an hour for the food to arrive but otherwise it was surprisingly excellent. Just as good as a sit in restaurant. The chow mien and crispy duck were really good, and the beef in black bean sauce was really really good. I genuinely did not expect it

Unfortunately the food wasn't really edible. It also presumably caused stomach upset after consumption. It would be desirable if the owner would subject the products from his restaurant to quality control (especially the rice and the meat).

Do not use people. I was given food poisoning the other night from this place I had sweet-and-sour prawn balls and a mix cho mane. It was very oily obviously made me very ill and the portion of meat in the mix Chow mein was very poor. Most of it was just vegetables and noodles. Very poor takeaway very poor rating.

While the Takeaway delivery service was amazingly quick, I suspect the reason is that most of the locals know not to order from them. Sesame Prawn Toast: All the prawns were replaced with oil. No sign of prawn at all! Vegetarian Spring Rolls: All the Bamboo shoots were replaced with oil. We could count the vegetables in the mini spring rolls on one hand! We didn't order the complementary prawn crackers... very oily. The mains were OK ish. There is a theme going on here, I think their chef has not caught up with the 80's let alone the 2020's. We were hoping for a healthy Chinese meal, we didn't get it. Sorry folks but this one can close as far as we are concerned, they may have some wonderful dishes hidden on the memory but we didn't find them. We won't be back.

We ordered a takeaway, I made an error with the order so I called back, I got a lot of huffing down the phone but the order was changed. The guy who delivered it, was friendly enough, when it got to my boyfriend eating the chicken, it was tough and fried (not roasted), my meal was fine, but the rice was rubbery and clumped together. We rang to complain but no apology and told “that’s fine, and that’s what it is”. I would not recommend!

From the outside, this looks like a slightly scruffy British Chinese takeaway. But in fact our experience showed that appearances can be deceptive. If the general impression of scruffiness put you off going there, you would miss some pretty good food. We went there looking for some favourites such as sesame prawn toast (surprisingly its roots are in authentic dim sum - make sure it's cut into triangles, not fingers), "seaweed" (really spring greens); and crispy aromatic duck with hoi sin sauce! The food was ready within ten minutes, and there was only one small problem: the duck had not been shredded, so we had to do that work in a hotel room with a plastic spoon and fork :-) Otherwise, the food was excellent.

Failed to let me know that there is pork in my food and it was not mentioned anywhere in the menu. When even asked about if there's meat in the food was not told about the pork. When I complained about the food, I got asked why I cant eat pork instead of an apology and was faced with an angry manager. The quality of food has drastically dropped and god knows what they're putting in your food. Never coming back to this place again.

Myself and my housemate ordered the chow mein with different meats,prawns and veg. It was horrible, visually it did not look like chow mein, nothing was mixed together, the noodles had no flavour and were watery. This chow mein was offensive to my Asian heritage. Now I am sad. If you don’t want to be food sad, do not order from here! It took an hour and a half to arrive. Not worth the wait or the money!! Imma actually stop being lazy and just make my own next time haha

Our usual, and closest Chinese Takeaway was (for some reason) closed, so we thought we'd try this one! REALLY good food and at a very reasonable price, and with delivery UNDER the 30 minutes they quoted. Chicken balls were actually fresh chicken, very tasty and weren't oily - with delicious sweet and sour sauce. Singapore chow mein was tasty and full of vegetables. The chicken curry was EXCELLENT! The sesame toasts were tasty and not oily either. Including a bag of prawn crackers, £21.50! Will definitely use Oriental Express again - Thank you.

Out of the 8 or so dishes we had, only a couple were decent and the rest were really not tasty at all. The pork balls were incredibly dry/tough, the honey pork was ridiculously bland and the house special chow me in was flavourless. A real shame.

There are reasons why the chinese students go there 1. It's CHEAP! 2. It's conveniently next to the university 3. It means they don't have to cook/clean themselves! The food is not great , our sesame toast was soggy, rubbery and luke warm, the prawn in black bean sauce was watery, the chicken in sweet and sour sauce just tasted of sauce, and the rice was soggy and over cooked (and a strange greyish colour) There are much better Chinese takeaways in Guildford

This review addresses takeaway food and service only, this is not a dine-in restaurant.We ordered our food by phone for delivery, it included; duck in plum sauce, fried beansprouts, egg fried rice, sea spiced prawns, pakchoi in garlic sauce, fried rice with garlic. The food was delivered after a 20-25 minute wait, not bad for a busy early Saturday evening. The food quality was poor. Both of the rice dishes were just a solid mass of inedible rice, you sliced it rather than spooned out loose grains of rice. The duck came with a orange, not plum sauce, the duck was spoiled by having the skin left on, which may have been ok if the skin was crispy, but it was horrible. The sea spiced prawns were tasty, but not sea spiced as I know it. The pakchoi was over cooked in a nasty tasting garlic sauce, and the beansprouts were exactly that, a tub of plain beansprouts. All-in-all a disappointing meal for almost £30, value for money was poor as was the food quality. Based on this experience, we will not use this place again.

After reading the reviews I'm disappointed. We had crispy duck which was far more greasy than I've had previously & in my opinion of poor quality. Plum sauce was lumpy and had separated - it was thick in places & clear in others. Although there were lots of shredded spring onions and cucumber they were definitely not fresh & had dried out a bit. The pancakes were OK. I would say the price is slightly above average. Not recommended as there are far better Chinese take aways in the area at a comparable price.

Can't go wrong with this place, especially with free delivery!

After searching online for a local Chinese takeaway, tonight it was for the first time when me and my husband ordered from Oriental Express. We placed the order via telephone and within less than 25 minutes later, the food arrived, hence they get 5* for the speedy delivery.Here is what we have chosen from their menu and our rating is as follows: Barbecued spare ribs in sauce (3*), Sesame Prawn on Toast (4*), Chicken Pad Thai (1*), Crispy Seaweed with grated scallop (5*), Calamari rings (2.5*), Sweet & sour squid (2*) and Fried rice with prawn (4*). Since the dish that I was interested in the most was the Pad Thai and because it was so disappointing, I will not order from this take away again.

Unfortunately due to living out in the sticks (Albury) so many takeaways refused to deliver to us. I phoned oriental express & the man on the phone was very polite, professional & accommodating. He was understanding that although we lived in Guildford we were still quite a long distance from the restaurant. I was given an additional £3.50 charge but I insisted on giving the driver a bigger tip as a thank you. My husband & I are quite fussy about our food & tastes e.t.c & I can guarantee you will not be disappointed! The food was absolutely delicious! It was also still piping hot on delivery which we were very impressed with due to traveling time! We were given a delivery time of 45-1hr & the food was here well before the estimated time! We ordered starter for 2 & a 4 main meals all of which were perfect. We enjoyed out takaway very much & we will definitely be coming back! We also intend to come for a meal in the restaurant itself.

Ordered using Hungry House and it had 4.5 stars so we were really looking forward to the food. It arrived and we were massively disappointed, the mixed starters were soggy, deep fried pastry bits no filling was evident in anything. The Kung Po prawns were all soggy batter, only mildly spicy and with mushy peas??!! The chilli chicken was terrible with over cooked veg and to be honest I could have cooked a better stir fry myself. The egg fried rice was brown and tasted over seasoned with soy and something else. The Singapore noodles were ok but lacked any other ingredients other than vermicelli, the Chinese pork was overly sweet and lacked any real flavour.Massively disappointed, and now on the hunt for Guildford ultimate takeaway Chinese.

It is always a good sign when all the Chinese people in your university accommodation choose to go to Oriental Express to get their take away. It has always been very quick when I have popped in and have a good choice of food. I would recommend it to anyone.

Worst Chinese I have ever had … special fried rice was stodgy and no flavour, black bean with chicken … I have no idea what the meat was but it was slimey. Prawn toast burnt and no flavour… expensive and disgusting!

The food here is bland, greasy and absolutely disgusting. I have been to this takeaway on and off for the last 20 years, and whilst it’s never been good, yesterday’s meal was put straight in the bin. This is the last time I will ever go to this take away,

The service is abysmal, none of the waiters smile and many of them give dirty looks, they barely speak english, no enthusiasm whatsoever, also the atmosphere is dead and all the moody waiters and waitresses make you just want to eat and leave! the food really isn't much better especially for what they charge! You can get better from Your local takeaway with better service! So save your money and avoid this place! I know I will in future!
