I have used Peril River for many a years, I ordered a chicken curry with fried rice and a portion of onion rings, the curry sauce was like water and I am still looking for the chicken, and for the onion rings seem to be all batter. this is the worse meal That I have had in years, I will not be going back, time to find another supplier of fine foods.

A takeaway that doesn't taste of Chinese food but the taste of salt and grease. Poor option choices for vegetarians. Don't even do tofu. The vegetable noodle dishes are just plain soy drenched noodles. Not authentic to Chinese food where multiple vegetables and plant based foods encorporated.

Counter staff nice but "chef" produces awful food. Chicken very hard and possibly cooked the day before ! Sweet and sour sauce like water ! Rice okay. "Cooked" within 5 minutes. NEVER AGAIN !!!!

Recently phoned for a delivery, the girl said they were busy it could be up to 45 minutes. That was fine, the delivery guy arrived well over an hour when he arrived he was asked why had it taken so long his reply was he had 11 deliveries in his car. We then discovered our meals were luke warm at best, so we called the takeaway back and asked to speak to the manager, he came on and said “what do you want me to do you can send it back and he can re heat it up “. DEFINITELY WILL NOT GO BACK THERE.

This has to be the best Chinese take-away in Erskine. The portions are great and always extremely tasty. Well worth a visit.

Staff are so helpful and welcoming. The food is always delicious and Stephen never fails to impress! They recently added a new ice cream parlour which is perfect for the kids in this weather. The milkshakes are amazing and they have an endless amount of sprinkles! The place is very family friendly and they offer a wide range of food for vegans and vegetarians. The salt and chilli pizza crunchy is extremely popular and for good reason. It’s not greasy in the slightest and is a massive treat. The food is great value for money also. Absolutely 13/10 definitely would recommend 😁😁😁

Home of the salt and chilli crunchy pizza, Pearl river is by far my favourite place to go for a takeaway. I always receive quick and friendly service and I am never disappointed with my meals. I can be quite a picky eater but the curries etc are always cooked to perfection here. Would highly recommend

Ordered a Chinese for the family last night and was pleased with the quick delivery but was absolutely delighted with the beautiful meals. You also get large portions which is always a good value for money. Will definitely be using them again.

La comida era supuestamente la carne y arroz con una salsa. Había carne, principalmente arroz poco valioso y agua marrón para una salsa.

Como estamos en vacaciones en familia visitando decidimos tratarlo y el orden desde el río de las perlas. Lo que obtuvimos fue un desastre repugnante. Pato en salsa de ciruela era un desastre repugnante y cuando me quejé me hecho absolutamente nada! La pechuga de pollo chow mein era un poco duro insípido de pollo sentado en algunos fideos

My daughter ordered a chinese takeaway from here and got a glob of hair entwined and cooked in her chicken fried rice. This would have been her first mouthful.

There isn't much selection living in Erskine/surrounding areas for take aways.However I would say that Pearl River is the best by far. Have even used just eat to try others but have never had a bad experience from here.Chicken chow mien is lovely, so is the chicken fried rice and chips are always golden and crispy.I, myself can't complain.

Ordered take out on a Saturday night, was told 45 mins for delivery. Ended up nearer 90 minutes. Food was warm but not hot when it arrived. It tasted ok, but to be honest there are better takeaways in the area. Was my first visit. Will give them another go, benefit of the doubt and all that.

Ordered chicken curry, prawn toast and prawn crackers for collection. It cost £9.85 but could easily have fed 2/3 people. Prawn crackers were crunchy and Mao dish and side were delicious. Chicken was not breast but I prefer it to be the brown meat of a chicken in a curry

I tried this a few times a number of years ago and food wasn't that good (so went to Bishopton for Chineese food). Late last year I thought that I would try the RiverPearl again and the food food was rather good good to my suprise.I've had two meal lately and they are very poor - I can make better myself (no joke). I got two Chow Mein (no MSG) and they were appalling. Just dry tasteless chicken breast placed ontop of some boiled noodles(with a couple of onions/bean sprouts) and ladle-full of thick "gravy" on top (gravy on Chow Mein !!). Tasted disgusting, looked disgusting - would the chef!! that created this eat it or has he tasted it before packing (doubt not...)I heard their crap" chef left and Steven done the cooking which was really good. Unfortunately Steven has since moved back to his own restaurant and the food is bad. Its back to Bishop ton for me (or further afield) to try and get something decent.

Used this Chinese on a few occasions to see if it's changed the chef or up its game. I've been disappointed everytime. If you are getting a Chinese in erskine this is your last resort

Sat in for a meal a few times and found it to be quite nice but last 2 take always have not been very good at all. Hot and sour soup was tasteless with hardly any meat in it. Sweet n sour chicken Hong kong style just doesn't taste quite right! Something missing from it but can't quite put my finger on it. Doubt we will return! Quite expensive too.

Food is okay. Rice is okay but not steaming hot as I had hoped. The staff were pleasant enough. The service is prompt. But overall the experience is not great but I have had worse. I'd probably give it another try at some point.

Got a takeaway the other night. Chicken fried rice that was congealed and smelled dreadful. I had 1 fork full and threw the lot in the bin. The advertised award winning chef must have been off that night. Spent almost 25 pounds on a variety of dishes and it was all disgusting. I'll never return. Why do these places think that such poor food is acceptable??

Went here on a cold Friday night and place was very quiet. Ordered 2 soups, 2 mains and a chicken fried rice. Soup was very tasty and I was looking forward to my main but was disappointed to find the chicken fried rice was too salty and the chicken in my sweet n sour chicken was so chewy that I ended up eating hardly anything! Very expensive for what we got too! Will not be back!

I used to stay near this place and it was alright , not spectacular but it was fairly cheap and had good portion sizes , The food is never going to get a michelin star but I enjoyed it and would order from here againI cant agree with the other review in my experience but maybe the place had a off night

Best Chinese ive had hands down. I love when I visit family nearby and no its not just for the food thats a bonus..The salt and pepper chips are amazing. Only issue i have now is the price . It seems to have shot up and its not inflation.

I have eaten here a lot of times and the food has always been very good so I thought I would try a special fried rice and that's when I realised that was end off a good thing as there very little of any ingredients manly just rice so be aware how quick things can change

It's ok to eat at this location for a reasonable price. My partner likes to eat here (he can eat everything 😅), but my expectations about food and taste are too high, so I can't enjoy the taste of the food at maximum here. I can eat here only if I'm really hungry 😁 like noodles, rice, beef, and salad (fruits). (The rest of the food contains some specific Chinese sos / spices that makes all the food taste the same. Unfortunately, I dont like that flavour). If you're like my partner, you will enjoy here. If you are like me you don't! 😁
