Oriental Express in Manchester - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

To be honest one of the worst Chinese food orders I’ve ever had. The chicken was awful In everything but the sweet and sour chicken. Will never be ordering from these guys again

Curry sauce wasn’t nice and chicken spring rolls not as nice as they used to be

Great little place but sad to be informed they've moved premises so can't order at the moment

Food is always good quality from here!

Great food. Generous portions and quick delivery.

First time ordering and expected better given their rating, unfortunately disappointed by the quality of the food, particularly the chicken in the fried rice. I wouldn’t order from here again.

Never received order. 25 Pounds down the drain. Also when I try to call them I get told that they'll respond tomorrow. I will change the feedback if the food comes in the next 25 minutes.

Food not good chicken in the fried rice was not fresh

Top natch as per keep up the good work

Average quality, and Delivery time took so long. And the discount is not a real discount after Delivery fee + other fees.

The worse food, and the worse customer service ever !!!!

Loved the food all the food was hot and fresh defo order again

Absolutely amazing, first time using this takeaway and can say I won't be using anywhere else now, everything was cooked perfect and the portions are huge, we still have lots left over for today!

The chips and onion rings were perfect. The Duck with Cashew nuts was a full rounded meal with a lot of Duck and vegetables perfectly cooked but needs more flavour.. a little disappointed but would order another dish.

Order from here weekly and have never had a complaint, lovely food and great service

Gorgeous food, generous portions! Best salt & pepper chicken I’ve had in Manchester

I am a first time customer, Was impressed on several levels...

Food is brilliant and staff is beyond nice. Can't fault them, amazing service and food

All the chicken and duck smells and tastes like it's gone off. The "special fried rice" tastes like boiled rice with a few unflavoured meats just thrown in (no bbq pork) making the whole dish just tasteless. The previous time I ordered from here it was great but something is very wrong with this order.

food was awful. will no be ordering again. stale chips, poorly cooked chicken, uncooked shrimps in the fried rice they was hard. wish i paid by card so just eat would refund

really let down by food, hot and sour soup had a really funky taste really was awful and did not eat it, salt and pepper chick was not a great portion and the chicken went rock hard after 5 minutes.

The food just did not have any taste to it

Everything is cold. I am having to reheat everything. Not good.

very nice flavours. Hot and fresh.

The chicken was nasty, and my soup had the consistancy of wallpaper paste. I won’t be ordering from here again. 不好吃。

Wont order again. Waste if money and flavourless food

Tastes very nice and the food was hot.

Not sure if they ran out of eggs or what, but I needed a magnifying glass to find them in my foo young. Very disappointing and it's usually really good.

Horrendous 1/10. With the exception of the salt and chilli chips, everything was inedible. Pad Thai was colourless and flavourless with cheap quality meat, and the vegetable spring rolls were beyond foul - how do you make vegetables taste bad?? Will never go back. Sorry

Prawn crackers were stale. Chow mein was OK. vege spring rolls tasted awful.

The food was so cold and the prawns were not properly cooked

Probs the worst Chinese I’ve ever had, soz

As always, great food and great service. Oriental Express drivers are always so nice and kind. 10/10

FISH WAS VERY SMALL AND CHIPS ARE FROZEN NOT CHIPPY CHIPS CURRY WAS NICE N EGG RICE LOVELY TOO

Foods always early, hot and tasty food, friendly drivers, very helpful if any enquiries. Reasonably priced for portion sizes.

First time ordering, was lovely and fresh. Will be back!

Lacks flavour doesn't even taste like authentic Chinese food. Vermicelli was tasteless and only comes with chicken and shrimp. Egg fried rice has flavour but it isn't authentic at all.

First time in years I wasn’t 100% happy with the food. All ok and we ate it but just had a under taste of something else. Hopefully just a one off.

The food was inedible and we had to throw it away. It was the worst food we'd ever eaten,a waste of £25.

Tofu cooked very nicely, rice fine. The sauces though were rather bland/samey and very gloopy. The satay just tasted savoury really and like it had never been near a peanut?

The food was made very cheaply for the price they was asking and it came cold, wasnt a good experience

Good take away food, clean, and helpful staff, I would visit again and tell my friends, I buy either Duck and vegetables, or beef curry, both with rice, its very nice.

Portion size was much smaller than the last time we ordered even though we ordered large last time and extra large this time. Quite disappointed and may not order again.

The food portions for the price was terrible,,,so small...not at all value for money,food was rather bland,limited items on menu,really unhappy.i spent 40pound for about 15 pounds worth of food.

Good quality food as always, always early

Always tastes good here!! Fave Chinese in Manchester

Fab food and service as always.

Always amazing flavours, my favourite Chinese in Manchester... possibly ever

Best takeaway I’ve had really Nice driver great Service all round

Extremely enjoyable, we both enjoyed it very much.

Everything was crisp' nice phone convo' they told me they are all halal, I just hope this is the truth' cause I did ask before I ordered' cause I have to eat only halal' cheers!

Always enjoy the food here, best Chinese I've genuinely had. Nice people too

This is appalling. I’ve had my order cancelled twice and my second order hasn’t come. I’ve waiting for food for 3 hours now !!!!!

The food hasn't shown up and the restaurant closed half an hour ago, been waiting 2 hours

Food was not good and cold I’ve had a lot better never order again from here

Rarely do reviews but had to for this as absolutely everything from here was incredible. Chicken sweetcorn soup made with real chunks of chicken, battered dishes weren't too oily, chicken balls were thigh not breast so lovely and tender, sauces all full of flavour. Absolutely outstanding. New favourite takeaway restaurant. A++++

Absolutely vile food was freezing cold smelt disgusting we nearly threw up the meat looked grey must’ve been sat there for days never again will I order from here awful

Was pretty good not the best. Salt and pepper chicken was amazing but the other food was a little bit too bland!

Firstly my order was wrong , I ordered beef in black pepper and recieved beef in black bean , the chips wasn’t fresh cut potatoes but frozen chips. The food was tasteless and arrived late.

The Salt & Pepper Crispy Chicken was brilliant. I like a bit more chilli peppers normally however the taste was excellent.

Great food will be ordering again

Food is really yummy. Would order again and recommend to friends.

Was surprised when the food came in styrofoam cartons so wasn’t expecting good food. How wrong I was. The food was delicious. Only ordered 3 dishes, but we have enough to last us for at least 2 days, not that it’s gonna last that long

Always good food, delivered with a smile

Good value for money, big portion sizes, really fresh and tasty

It’s so. Nice hot and the chips are so harm and nice try it u will like it so much there are very kind and good service for Chinese restaurants

Really nice food. Delivered on time and piping hot. Would recommend :)

Spot on. Nice big meals, perfectly cooked. Very tasty, but a little pricey.

Chicken all tastes like it’s gone bad. Binned the whole order

Delicious food delivered fast and hot, would recommend!

Amazing food as always! The sweet and sour chicken is top notch, salt and pepper chicken and salt and pepper chips are amazing! Best chinese around 👍

Good portions of delicious food, well packaged and delivered on time. Could be spicier, spiced for western palette, mild.

Spot on every time!! Hot and tasty!

This is our new go to for Chinese , excellent quality food and not the most expensive around . Highly recommended

It was a bit early but it was fine, better early than late.

Excellent food and Very pleasant delivery driver

Chicken rice was great huge portion, lots of big chicken pieces and tasty wings were really nice big portions. Lots of Napkins. Highly recommended.....

Good service, and food delivery early and pipping hot will order again thanks

Excellent hot food delivered fast, polite and friendly driver, overall excellent service!!

Amazing fresh hot food, delivered early, cooked perfectly, flavours are authentic and portions are amazing!

I am chinese and love chinese food!

The food arrived 20 mins early. The Driver was polite and friendly.. The food was piping hot. The Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings were Incredible, well seasoning tasty, nice crispy and I like the fact that they were quite salty which I love. The Rice portion was Massive and definitely X-Large. Rice well cooked, soft, and lots of big pieces of chicken in it.. The chicken had been marinated to perfection. The drinks were ice cold as I like. Lots of Napkins and Cutlery... Overall Excellent .. To the person who cooked this perfect food for my palate Thank You So Much!

Yummy food really enjoyed it hot n delicious

Fast delivery. Generous portion sizes, great value for money and great flavour. I recommend the Chicken Noodle rolls

loved it chicken was very dry but everything else was great

The chilli beef was pretty much just a load of soggy batter sadly, but everything else was OK.

The food was really nice and very hot but my boiled rice was missing from the meal I ordered which was mixed vegetable curry .It stated that it came with boiled rice I contacted just eat and they refunded me for the meal but I was very happy with the food none the less

Food was alright and delivered within first estimated time given. Satisfied to order again at Oriental Express.

Great food and service as always

Thank you so much, what an amazing meal! Hot food, great portion, love the taste. I'll order the same again for sure.

Lovely choew mein and egg fried rice 🍚 🍜

Food was fresh and so nice defo order again

Outstanding : 1) The Driver was polite and friendly 2) Food Arrived Hot. 3) 20 Mins Early Bad: Unfortunately when I took the food containers out of the Bag and tried to move to the counter everything fell on the floor all the food came out and hit the ground.. So was not impressed as they should have been in plastic containers or properly sealed. So I was just left with two drinks.. Contacted Just Eat who gave me a full refund.. Sad as my friend had recommended this restaurant...

Chips and curry sauce was disappointing. Hardly any curry sauce on the chips. Chips were dry. Chicken curry was OK, but i was very surprised to see mushrooms in the curry. Peas in the curry,yes, but definitely not mushrooms. Bit disappointing overall.

Spicy vermicelli was lacking in shrimp and duck also lacking in flavour very My fave dish before lockdown

Great food, order was on time and decent portion sizes. Will be coming back for seconds.

My mum loves the vermicelli but I found the food to be okay at best

The chef specials were very good, fried rice was a little on the disappointing side but a good salt and pepper mix and good sauces. It's too good to be knock off takeaway food but not quite as good as you'd get from a restaurant.

Food came after around 30min from ordering so the time wasent bad but Jesus christ I will never in my life order from here again the food I wouldent feed it to my dog

food fresh and light not greasy would order again
