Peking Chef in Plymouth

We did a big order tonight Tues 10th dec 8 of us the food was overcooked, the chicken was overcooked and really dry, the rice was also. The chips were dry and cold. All was cold

Waited over 2 hours sent them away this is not the first time when it does arrive on time normally good

Food took nearly two hours to come. Was cold and and flavorless, apart from the task of burnt food. Ordered with justeat, they marked it as delivered at the time it said it was suppose to be delivered, and it had not been delivered. I called the restaurant and told them it hadn't been delivered, they said it was on the way and turned up 30 minutes later. So it clearly was still in the kitchen. Sauce was all over the food l, where the tub had leaked in the bag. All items of food were cold. Beef was like chewing a wellie and chicken was like charcoal. Don't waste your money or time 👍

When it arrived it was cold i paid £35 and i am very disappointed

On this occasion we were disappointed with the quality. The chicken was tough as were the vegetables and chips, whilst the sweet and sour sauce was watery. I suspect that the main ingredients had been reheated rather than freshly cooked.

Arrived late. I called twice. Kept being told it was on its way. When it finally arrived it was cold. The prawn crackers were not only cold but were also stale.

Food was bland and tasteless,Cold&greasy,Threw it in the bin

rice was cold and the rest was just luke warm

Food was late and cold worst Chinese I have ever tasted beef was like chewing an elastic band !!! Sloshy vegetables !! Greasy over cooked egg fried rice will never order again .

Polite delivery driver. Excellent food.

It was an hour late and our chips are stone cold. When I called up they were grumpy and cut me off talking not happy

The best Chinese in Plymouth. Been ordering monthly for 15 years, would recommend.

expected delivery time was 18.50 to 19.10. arrived at 19.56 was Luke warm had to be microwaved and was tasteless. total disappointment. will not be ordering again.

Perfect !! Best place we’ve found in the city !!

Hasn’t turned up! Spoke to someone over 15 minutes ago and who said they were on their way and still nothing!?

I’ve been feeling sick since eating this food this evening! Even been sick cause of it, horrible and tasteless, do not buy from here!

Food tasteless and ordered s+s prawn balls got chicken balls. Ordered beef with cashew nuts got about 9 cashew nuts and more veg than beef. Paid almost £30 and was awful also took over 2 hours to arrive. It arrived cold and the driver said only 1 driver for all areas. What a waste of money which I did not have to waste. Absolutely disappointed.

the food wasn't as hot as it normally is but it was good, unfortunately it was over an hour late and I had to phone due to the app saying it was delivered, this isn't the first time it's been late arriving, this is my only criticism

Excellent food, ready right on time

Sweet and sour chicken balls and chips were burned yet cold on delivery, was also 20 mins late

absolutely amazing huge portions lots of meat

Always delicious, hot and tasty x

The driver was however very rude,heavily pointing out how I didn't answer the one phone call he mad and how I was rude for ignoring him,I have two autistic toddler and a single mum I come in the rain and no shoes to your car,he was very disregarding and won't be ordering with the driver again

After 75 minutes of waiting for our food we called the takeaway for an update to be told it was on the way so we accepted it and continued to wait. Another 30 minutes we waited and phoned back to be told it is in the kitchen and was nearly ready. After I asked why I was lied to the first time i was just told sorry. After 2 and a half hours after the order was placed my order was delivered cold. I wish I had seen these reviews before ordering as they are clearly all accurate. The food was also very bad. Please don't waste your money here.

Never had any issues with this restaurant. Food always hot and tasty and never any items missing

After a year I decided to give them another try. I really wish I hadn't as it was no different than 12 months ago. Portions are big but food is terrible and the bin had most of it. Kung po chicken was without doubt the worse I've ever had infact it was like boiled chicken and veg and tasteless and I've had plenty from many Chinese restaurants. Never using them again that's for sure

Really enjoyed our meal thankyou, was really tasty and fresh xx

piping hot food. foot qty and quality. recommended

Honestly, the worst Chinese I've ever tasted. So bland but with a very strange after taste. I ordered rice, noodles, chow mein, s&p chicken and s&s chicken and all of it was terrible. It went onto the bin.

I called the restaurant 10 minutes after the latest delivery time and was told the driver was on his way. I called again 15 minutes later and was told the same thing. When I said that they had told me that 15 minutes earlier they said they would phone the driver. A further 15 minutes later I called again and tried to cancel the order but was told I had to phone Just Eat to cancel. At that point the order arrived but the food was almost cold. We accepted the order as no alternative.

Arrived late, I had to call the restaurant. They sent the wrong item..dunno what I have - it's spicy but I'm hungry and don't want to wait to eat any more

Terrible, I rang so many times and they kept saying driver was on the way and he’s a couple minutes away and it arrived so so late and not very warm at all

Ordered directly from website tonight for 6:40pm delivery . Driver turned up over 1 hour early but my children weren’t home so asked him to come back at correct time. Phoned them to ask them not reheat food and please cook fresh. Driver returned an hour later, food cold and congealed, so obviously just sat in the car for an hour!!! Not impressed!

Absolutely amazing will order from this place again ☺️😊

Please sort your chips out they are disgusting like reheated old chips this is the second time the chips have been like this only fit for the bin

Waited about 2 hours for delivery. Food was all but cold. Chips cold and hard. Most of meal went into the bin. Very, Very displeased with the whole experience. First and last time that we use Peking Chef.

Standard chinese. Chicken balls are good, chow mein was different but nice, chips were not good. All in all it was alright

Always great food from here, been using this place for a number of years now, only recently via the just eats app.

Food tasteless, food over cooked and most went in the bin as it was rank. Worst Chinese meal I've had and probs the worst delivered food I've had

Excellent food. Bit different from the usual chinese! Delivery times could be faster but the food makes up for that !

Had a chicken curry with egg fried rice, prawn crackers The crackers were hard, the curry tasteless and watery the rice very salty and greasy Will NEVER go there again

Food was inedible ended up spending money to chuck it in the bin beef and broccoli was undercooked and super watery the seaweed was soggy and the noodles were super greasy

Great food, a bit late- but tasted great and still hot!

Only ordered from here because China Valley was closed today. The food was very greasy, the prawn toast and the pork balls had grease oozing out, the bbq sauce tasted watered down, the house special fried rice was nothing like any of the other ones we’ve had from any of the other Chinese takeaways. just basically really poor quality all round. Not worth the money we paid.

Great quality and great quantity! Came way earlier than expected and great communication, would recommend, thank you! :)

Food is always hot, fresh and tasty! The crispy chilli beef is excellent

I had to call the after delivery time as the app said 'enjoy your food' despite having no notifications before hand. when i called, the restaurant said the driver could not find us and asked for my phone number, I gave it and said what is the point in giving my phone number in the app if they dont use it? The food then arrived as I was stood on my doorstep waiting, the driver was so dismissive, barely acknowledged me and no apology for being late and not suprisingly it was cold, not enjoyable

Delivered 45 minutes later than the longest estimated time. all dishes was cold on arrival, all had to be microwaved to heat up. phoned up to complain and was offered £10 off next order, no thanks

I ordered a Kung po chicken and received something else which was horrible. My food was cold. Not happy

not sure what has happened to this place it has seriously gone down hill. My food arrived late and wasn't even warm to the point where I had to microwave it.My curry sauce was clumpy. The sweet and sour chicken was a nice flavour however the chow mein was bland. I use to order from this Chinese quite often but haven't done so in a while as our delivery before was over 2 hours late, whilst our kids sat there waiting to eat. I thought I would give it the benefit of doubt, what a mistake made.

wrong items in delivery, won't be using again

beef extremely chewy but was tasty ,not too hot though

Flavourless unfortunately, even stuff marked as 'Spicy' had no taste

Late and cold, most went straight in the bin. First time we’d tried this fast food place in a long time. Not worth the money for late and cold food.

I’ve not received my order yet !!!!!!

Had to call Peking Chef twice, they were very busy I was told was told it would be 20-30 minute's late then we had to call again and was told that it has just been picked up but it is on its way but 40 minutes later it had arrived cold so we had to reheat by this time it was nearly 10pm not a suitable time for eating and enjoy what we had bought to which was put through at 6.30pm.

2hrs late! Cold food will never use this restaurant again!!

Terrible experience this evening, ordered at 18:00, was advised of a 19:20 delivery, phoned up to be told the driver was 10 minutes away, 19:40 rolls by and still no food, when the driver turned up he explained the food wasn’t cooked when he come to pick up the food, and when he delivered it it was freezing cold, food was delivered at 20:20 well over 2 hours after we placed the order! Waiting for a full refund!!!!!

Rice was burnt and seaweed had no seasoning at all. Not great

The chips where soggy and cold and the rest off the food wasn’t pipping hot

Nice chicken ball and Singapore fired rice

Quality of food was awful, not much flavour and overpriced, it was also cold. Not happy at all. I won’t buy again, sorry. 👎🏼 very disappointed.

Two hours for a takeaway, not surprisingly it arrived stone cold and inedible. Phoned Peking Chef nobody answered, so phoned delivery driver to tell him to let Peking Chef know and that I’ll visit takeaway tomorrow with takeaway and insist on a refund. I’ve used Peking Chef many times to collect but never delivery, and it’s not something I will ever repeat, absolutely disgusted with both quality of food and customer service.

Normally lovely appalling today and was cold

Food took 2 hours then got delivered cold and inedible. Called the restaurant to be told the food isn’t cold and if it’s an issue to bring the food back. With a child in bed this wasn’t a possibility after a 2 hour wait - the member of staff then retorted with the driver won’t be coming back so what would you exactly like us to do? What with inedible, stone cold food! Certainly will not be returning and I believe the staff need a little bit of public service training.

Tasted nice, chips seemed poor quality and arrived it all arrived cold so used the air fryer.

First time ordering from Peking Chef. Delicious food, fast delivery so all nice and hot. As an added bonus I forgot to order prawn crackers so I rang the restaurant to ask if they could be added - but they were included anyway! This is our new go-to for Chinese food. Highly recommended

good as always, highly recommended.

Spare ribs were very very salty and there wasn’t a lot of sauce. Crispy seaweed had no flavour. However did arrive quickly which is a plus! I don’t usually leave bad reviews but this wasn’t very nice.

After waiting one hour 40 minutes it's was very very cold when arriving

Everything was lovely except the chips - it was like they'd been fried a dozen times, in fact - they were so dry and like cardboard, I had to chuck them out for the birds in the morning!! so at ;east they didnt go to waste!

Beautiful food as usual, nice and hot, great service. Thankyou!

Timings said 35-50 minutes, I ordered for an hour. Order was delayed and after 90mknites I called the restaurant. They said it hadn't even been prepared and it would still be 30 minutes 2 hours I cancelled the order.

VERY LATE, AND COLD Food arrived over an hour and 20 minutes late after having to ring the restaurant twice. When food did arrive it was cold and needed reheating. No apology from the restaurant either. Completely unacceptable and disappointing. I was a repeat customer but will not be ordering again.

Love this place always- my go to for Chinese :)

Love love love and the staff are so friendly

I love the delivery guy he’s so sweet and caring, and it warms my heart 🫶🏼

The food was way more than expected for a set meal for 2, and I even got a bag of prawn crackers on the house. I don't have to cook a meal tomorrow with all that extra left over food. Well done.

The chicken balls didn’t really taste right - very sinewy . Only plus you do get a lot for your money but quality is poor

Salt and chili chips had no flavor

Excellent as always. Highly recommended

Food was delivered politely and on time and was very nice.

Normally I would give this establishment a 5 star rating, today however very disappointed

The food was poor quality burnt noodles

Ordered from this takeaway last night, not impressed. Beef was very tough in beef and mushrooms, special fried rice far too much sauce on top and as for the prawn crackers, very stale, almost chewy in texture. Chips dry. Sorry don't normally comment but paid a lot of money for poor food.

Excellent food and speedy delivery service. Thankyou

Food was cold with very little prawns and a funny smell. Went in the bin.

Lovely food, arrived really hot, cannot fault this place! Thanks guys 😀

Asked for curry to be spicy it was bland never Oder again don’t waste ur money

Fantastic !! They never disappoint !!

Yes, it was a bit late this time, but not life-changingly bad. The driver was more than apologetic too. Certainly won't let it put us off though, as food has always been ace, plenty of it and good value.

Worst Chinese I’ve ever tasted ordered food at 19:00 should have been here between 20:00-20:25 . 20:45 still not here then an update should have been here 20:50 . 21:00 still not arrived called the restaurant the owner very rude I asked where our food was she said it’s on it way. I asked how long will it be she said not sure . I said it was a joke she said I will add some cans of coke so clearly lied and our order wasn’t out for delivery . Then finally order arrived 21:40. Will never order from this place again , food arrived cold soggy and 2 incorrect dishes.

All foods were very tasteless, very limited sauce. Chips were rock solid. Plus side very friendly staff and we got 2 free cans of coke

Food was ok. Was very hot but tasted greasy and the sauce was a bit watery.

Lovely food. Have ordered from them for a number of years now and have always enjoyed everything ordered.

Food was terrible, looked like it was reheated from the day before and tasted that way aswell. Ate about a third and put it in the bin, will not be ordering from here again

Our usual place was closed so ended up here as this is our local Chinese and we hadn’t tried it in years. It was so bad. Wish we had checked previous reviews. The prawn crackers were stale, the chips were over cooked and I don’t know how to describe the chicken wings! Don’t bother ordering from here and spend your money elsewhere or even better, make yourself a sandwich.

Delivery was super fast but the quality was bad no veg or with anything so it all looked bland & extra greasy

As always lovely food and still hot not like most places. Well done keep it up.
