We had a nice evening and all enjoyed the food, we did all believe the food was value for money. Plenty of choice and with the set price you have plenty of options to try. I do think it needs a refurbishment. I haven’t been in years and nothing much has changed but everything looks a little tired and in need of a clean. Staff were pleasant enough but minimal interaction which isn’t always a bad thing when you’re catching up with people/groups, but it would have been nice for a little more ‘service’ or to be checked on at least once.

This place is fantastic. The food is delicious and the staff very attentive. We had to book in advance as it does get very busy. We stayed at the campsite next door, and booked as a treat for my son’s 11th birthday. We were not disappointed at all. Infact, this is probably the best Chinese we have ever had. Will definitely return if we come back here. Thank you for your hospitality. Keep up the great work and hopefully we’ll see you again :)

Always worth a visit if you fancy a Chinese meal. It's a set menu for £24 and you can choose anything from the extensive menu all well cooked and tasty. You will end up stalled 😁😁 drinks menu is reasonable and serving staff are very good. Surroundings very plush and set by the side of a lake.

Very very busy, but it's the best of its kind in the area, so we know why. Took around 30 to 40 mins to get our take away ready despite the busy-ness in the restaurant. Their noodles and King prawn fried rice are super delicious.

Takeaway was absolutely awful. Chips? More like bricks! So dry and awful we left them. Chicken - so chewy and tough that most of it was inedible. Duck - passable. Value for money? Not at all. Would we go again? Not in a million years. All the disabled parking was taken up by non disabled vehicles (no blue badges)

Having been many times over the past 15 years we are so looking forward to our date night Well to say disappointing would be an understatement It used to be traditional chinese with service to match But to be honest we felt like we were in the local cafe No interaction with the service staff We felt like they wanted us in and out as quick as possible And the food was not up to what it used to be This was our favourite restaurant but now think we will give it a miss

Fantastic is not enough to describe the experience at this restaurant. An ideal Chinese food experience, service was quick and efficient and the food was excellent. The crispy duck was tender and juicy and the portion was significant and filling. Both beef dishes were amazing, the meat was tender and would melt in your mouth. The noodles were also mouthfuls of lovely bursts of flavour and the texture of soft noodles and cooked veggies was 🤌🤌 the only thing that didn’t blow us away was the rice, it was a bit starchy. All in all, 100% recommend.

It is such a shame it is so difficult to book a table, only one number to ring only answered during service hours and is always busy with takeaway orders! I can never get in touch to book a table so i go to another worse restaurant that has online booking. A lot of people missing out but if they are full each night they probably don't need to care.

I never left a Chinese restaurant so disappointed and I can say hungry because I didn't order, where you supposed to pay a fixed price/person and order what ever you want. On starters was somehow ok our friends know what to order and we end to eat something from starters few of them very salty. (I'm still drinking water after half day now when I write this.) Well the issue start when we order second time wich we didn't order anything because everything is happening so fast and they rushing you so we pass the second order, we was still passion because we eat salty starters(remember?) , well we finally supposed to order: my wife order for me sweet potato and another 2 dishes for her, our friends orders for them and finally was my turn THEY SAID THAT THE TABLE is full is only maxim 5 dishes and I couldn't order only next time so I ended up with my sweet potato, yes I could try different thins from what was in front of me but I didn't order, at the end the funny part I was asked if I want to order anything more but my sweet potato was half eat and cold I should wait again wich everyone was full and suppose to leave, yes never felt so bad on my own money like this restaurant, I will never come back, thank you but a definitely no!

Visited on Friday 12th April for the first sitting as you definitely have to book. Was seated as we arrived and the staff are very friendly and very attentive. Had a lovely table for 2 by the window, with a lovely view of the boat moorings at Billing Aquadrome. So this is an all you can eat buffet, which cost £26 per person on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the rest of the week is £24 and children is £16 each. Good choice of drinks which are reasonably priced. We opted for Spring rolls, deep fried salt and pepper spare ribs and sesame prawn toast (that hungry forgot photos), which were delicious and highly recommended. Prawn crackers are on the tables along with a sweet chilli dipping sauce. You can order as many starters as you wish. Then you then order middle dishes, which include crispy duck, and other dishes, but we decided to wait and order main dishes which have a wide range of choices from Chicken, pork, beef and seafood. We opted for Chicken chow mein, fried egg rice, sweet and sour pork, crispy chilli beef. Absolutely delicious and again you can order further mains, but we were full as the wife is not a big meat eater but there are non meat dishes to order. What i will say is this isnt the place for children as they wont get value for money. We sat close to a large table of people along with 3 children aged 7-9. We noticed they didnt eat much of the dishes and had to order chips which are priced at £2.50 each further to the bill so, over £50 for these 3 children alone!! Highly recommended and we will be back very shortly. Parking okay and lots of space inside with a nice atmosphere. Food is delicious and very tasty. Best Chinese i have had for a long time.

This place has gone rapidly downhill, and it’s obvious that they must be struggling. We booked a table for 4 people for 12:30, and we were met by: ‘ We close at 2pm can you place your order now ‘ however, our friends had not arrived, but did within 5 mins. of us. So, we rushed into the menu, and perhaps chose the wrong dishes. The mixed starter for 4 was infact very good, but the mains left a lot to be desired.Consequently, we skipped the sweat course and just had coffee.Their loss is theirs not ours for rushing us through. The whole place could do with a total refresh, from top to bottom. Carpets dirty, toilets dirty plenty of dust and cobwebs around the place. NOT what it was like 3-4 years ago. Come on Orie

Didn’t find the place or staff very welcoming, the staff weren’t friendly, the service was slow in between servings and then felt quite pressured at times to eat as they wanted to clear everything away before we’d finished. Toilets weren’t the nicest and the kitchen looked unhygienic. Disappointing

Amazing food every time we have been. Have only been as part of a large party but there is always plenty of food brought out over 3 courses - starters, duck pancakes and mains. All of the food is hot and well cooked. Allergies are checked at the start so you can find out what you can and can't have. It has always been busy when there so don't think it is always easy to call to book but definitely worth visiting!

A favourite with my old college girls - the food is delicious and bountiful, always seems fully occupied hence good atmosphere and perfect for our get- togethers. However, have to agree with several reviews - tired and dated and could definitely do with some renovations and smartening up. Given that the restaurant always appears busy, maybe its time to reinvest something to ensure the future?

We had the sharer platters to start as we booked for 17 people, duck pancakes next course and then picked different things for the mains and all shared.

We have eaten here a few times now and the food has always been spot on, good starter platter, then a massive selection of meals that are ordered to your table and more can be ordered throughout. All they ask is don't order loads and leave it all, just order then if you want more of anything or different food order. If you like this type of food then this place is a must. It's a good idea to call first to make sure you can get a table

The small portions a re to prevent food waste, but you can order a lot of food so don't worry if you think you can eat more, you can order more. Service is quick and there is always someone around to grab their attention to order. The price for what it is is very decent.

Hadn't been to The Oriental Paradise for a number of years, and thought we'd try it again. The positives....great, friendly and attentive staff. Prompt service & great to see the restaurant full! The not so positives...the food albeit plentiful, some of the crispy duck was dry and difficult to swallow. Some of the mains (king prawns in black bean sauce) was overly salty. Left feeling a little disappointed and it may be a few more years until we return.

15 of us just spent a wonderful Thursday evening in the restaurant. The service was speedy & impeccable and the food tasted authentic & delicious. We ordered a variety of dishes including fresh lobsters, scallops, sea bass, prawns, chicken & vegetarian dishes. Portion sizes were very generous and the staff were very happy to personalise to our tastes - extra chilli & garlic & they made very tasty vegetarian dishes for the fussy vegetarian in our group! We finished the meal with crispy banana fritters and Irish coffees! An amazing feast enjoyed by all. Thank you team Oriental Garden for a lovely evening.

This is a great takeaway. There isn’t delivery and it is cash only. There is an ATM nearby at the Tesco Express. We always get our Chinese from here even though we moved further away! Great, hot food and good portions. This time we had Beef with Green Pepper and Black Bean sauce (gluten free, just be sure to ask for no soy sauce and gluten free), Hot and Spicy Chicken Chow Mein and Hot and Spicy King Prawn Chow Mein.
