Peking Garden Express in Stockton-on-Tees

Ordered a takeaway tonight as normally go to pakchung but we're closed,can't believe people accept this as ok food refried chips to death,burnt prawn toast put straight in bin and chow mein house special in small carton barley would feed two absolutely terrible,ordered here couple years ago really nice but sadly never go again

Food took almost 2 hours and when it arrived it was cold and inedible. This used to be one of my favourite take outs but will not be ordering again.

This is the second time we've ordered from here. Food is absolutely stunning. Never had a Chinese takeout as nice as this in my life! Girls are the counter are always so lovely too. Never go anywhere again for a Chinese!

I picked up, ordered the salt and pepper box/deal. Was very plain, chicken was very chewy, noodles tasted some what burnt. This used to be my favourite place to go but it seems like it’s went down hill. Sweet and sour tasted very watered down.

Arrived cold and almost not cooked. Looks as if its been sat in the carton for a while as some of it seemed slimy. Not very well seasoned. Shame as this was my go to takeway. Shouldnt have to get the wok out to heat/cook a takeaway!

Ordered delivery and wrong food came Twice. No apology no nothing and they got a tip!

I usually do a 2 hour round trip for my Chinese but went here for a change as couldn’t be bothered with the drive and I wasn’t disappointed portion sizes were generous and plenty of meet and the duck wraps were fab not just a load of burnt crispy duck (like most others in the area) I got a tub full to the brim of good quality duck I’ll definitely be coming back 10/10

first time visiting the shop as normally would get it delivered. the staff are fantastic the food was hot fresh and tasty couldn't ask for more. Portion sizes are spot on. Highly recommend

Come here today for the 1st time for an anniversary meal was nice very busy

Best chinese ever can't say one bad word about this place

Bit awkward to find, and there is next to no parking. You basically have to park in the side street or at the back of the takeaway, but not much space at all. That said, it is worth it. The food is amazing, and I've never had a bad meal from here. It's just so yummy! Would definitely recommend the place, the food speaks for itself. Staff were friendly and canny. It seems dead busy, but I was able to pick my order up within 20 mins. I would, however, opt for delivery as it's only £2 and would save the hassle of finding a parking space when there is only one going to pick it up.

Decent Chinese takeaway if a little expensive.

Decide to try another establishment, glad I did ordered over the telephone, for collection. Arrived and order was waiting for me. 1st Chinese takeaway that you could see the chef and staff cooking prepping. It was a nice touch!!! Food was very nice meat was tender or over cooked where upon meats became chewy. portions of good size. Looks like this establishment will be our local take away from now on:-)

Just ordered takeout for the first time. Fantastic service, amazing food, huge portions and great price

Ordered a Chinese at 7pm. It arrived at 8:15. Two of the items were salt and pepper chips and salt and pepper chicken. Both of which were plain and had one pepper in both with no seasoning. Rang to complain and lady said she would send fresh out with the new driver in 5 minutes. At 8:45, no new food had arrived and the rest of my takeaway was cold. Rang again to complain and was told that actually nothing had been sent. Was offered a fresh takeaway but would be 9:30 by the time it actually arrived. After being at work all day and having guests this wasn’t suitable. Asked the lady for a refund she said she would be able to give me one but would have to come and collect all the food back upon doing so. Despite not understanding why they would need to collect the food, I agreed to this and they came to collect. The lady who collected the dreadful takeaway was lovely about the situation and showed genuine disappointment for me which unlike the attitude of any other staff member. Whilst also on the phone previous to the restaurant direct, I could hear staff both swearing at each other and also when the lady I was speaking to was asking for advice the person she asked saying “hang up”. The most disgraceful service I’ve ever experienced in my life. Having ate here for years now and recommended to so many people I shall not be returning.

Stay away from the ribs, not the best - served in a bland watery slurry.

Have ordered from here so many times and it has always been amazing, tonight it was not. Our spring rolls were soggy when they arrived and the food was Luke warm. The flavours were also off and not as tasty as normal. Do better.

SORT OUT YOUR ONLINE BOOKING SYSTEM! On three occasions I have placed an order via your website, received a confirmation email, however the delivery does not arrive! 😡

Salt and pepper chips were clearly old and microwaved, some warm some freezing cold and dried out, they ended up straight in the bin. Rest of the food was alright but not very appetising following the salt and pepper chips.

I ordered the chicken szechuan and noodles 2 night and 2 be honest I thought the sauce was very watered down not much flavour at all really not happy with the meal, don't think I will order from here again really disappointed,

This is our go to take away, service is always good and so is the food. Recommended

Best Chinese ever. Except for Jackie Chan.

We got a delivery from peking garden express it was the worst chinese ever . Chips were old & re- heated awful . Chicken satay well no taste what so ever it went in the bin. Wont be ordering from here again

Ordered takeaway, food looked fine however other than some simple starters the mains were not nice. Roast duck dish was fatty, Hong Kong sweet and sour was tasteless and lacking meat, not much more to say other than never again, which is a shame.

The best Chinese take away in the area, good quality food and ingredients, always really good service, quick, hot food. There has been a time where we have had food missed, however the way it was dealt with was brilliant and therefore still deserves a 5 star review! There are other Chinese takeaways more expensive than here which are no where near the same quality. If you haven’t tried, you must - would never go anywhere else!

I won the share box prize. It tasted amazing, outstanding service. Would highly recommend 👌. Thankyou Peking Garden

Only Chinese i trust in this area, been eating at the restaurant for over 10 years and using the takeaway since it opened. Always hot and fresh, delivery time is always spot on. Manager is a Legend! 100% recommended 👌

The dishes all tasted the same… not very nice!!! Not very choice having other diners leftovers being scraped onto plates next to you while you’re eating. Lots of food wastage, not sure if people didn’t like it or portions given were too large, but shocking amount of food going in the bin! Eating area was not very clean, similar to the toilets! May have been better on the ground floor, however not our experience! Will not be returning!

what a meal absolutely outstanding. i won a meal for 3 competition and it was unreal. would highly recommend. not only was the food cooked to perfection but delivery on time too. great portion sizes meal for 3 probs would of fed about 6 people👌👌

If I give less I would absolutely shocking this place first the food Turned up which was freezing then I didn't recive my curry sauce when they said I asked for gravey when I didn't just shocking not happy

Really disappointed . Have eaten in the restaurant and enjoyed the food . However this had to be the worst ever chinese takeaway i have ever had . I had the king prawn Szechuan rice and chips . . Son said his meal was edible but wouldnt order again either . Top it all i now have a bad stomach

This is my absolute favourite Chinese in Stockton. So tasty and such lovely delivery drivers.

I order all the time and i have never had any problems whatsoever. Food is amazing, never have to wait to long for delivery and all the staff are lovely

Got to be one of the best take aways I've used recently. The restaurant is brilliant and so too is the take away. Go figure. Easy to find and has parking at the rear for the pickup dash. You can see the whole kitchen and prep area. A massive plus for me as I like to see where my food is coming from. The portions are very good. I eat a lot and the Singapore chow mein is enough on its own to sate my appetite. Every dish I've had has exceeded my expectations in terms of quality and taste. If you've heard good things, that's because it's true.

Nope not good please AVOID AT ALL COSTS WARNING GIVE ME THE TROTS STRAIGHT UP TROUBLE GUTS !!!! sorry never again im a very ill man now :(

Great food always worth ordering from here . Always hot well packaged

Favourite Chinese. Cater for all our dietary needs

Fave Chinese in Stockton area Honey chilli chicken is fab

AVOID!! Needs 0 star rating tbh, worst Chinese food I've ever had, tasteless and dry. Ruined the Friday night upon opening the takeaway box and trying the food. Could of done better myself!

Disgusting food! ordered spring rolls got chicken nuggets ordered chips no chips in the bag. Tasteless food wouldn't go again spent £23 for it to go in the bin.

Unfortunately gave me food poisoning.

My favourite Chinese, the food is awesome and we're always made welcome by the staff who are great

What a waste of £27 absolutely horrible, crispy shredded beef in peking sauce just tasted burned and full of oil 🤢 char Sui egg foo young again a absolutely terrible char Sui what I normally get is red in colour this was a dark grey and salt and pepper chips….rubbish frozen chips mushy with a bit of salt and pepper spice sprinkled on and a few onions shot on, I thought I’d try somewhere new my mistake will not be ordering again from here

Always mint food from here, haven't been disappointed once.

Had nicer curry's else where. Prices gone up

Probably the worst Chinese I’ve ever had in my life the curry was so thin I thought it was Water and the satay was overdone and rubbery.Spent £35 on a variety of dishes and ended up having to throw it in the bin as it was disgusting

The food is fantastic bit at the same time really expensive nearly £40 for chips and roast duck fried rice, then for just me spare ribs with hardly any meat on a curry special rice, crab claws and sesame prawn toast

Food is always decent. But! No card payment & you have to sit on decorators platforms. Must be making a fortune. Customer friendly! Not for me.

The food was very good from here. We had sweet and sour Cantonese style chicken and shredded beef, egg fried rice and small spring rolls. Food was ready on time for collection. Just ensure that you go to peking garden express not peking garden as we did! That is the restaurant and not the takeaway!

First time used and wow will definitely use again.

Frienldy staff very professional food is amazing highly recommended 👌

Bitterly disappointed, I've enjoyed their food both at the restaurant and takeaway for years. Ordered my usual tonight . Chicken chow mein , rubbery noodles too much soy possibly reheated , salt n pepper chips definitely reheated badly , tough to say the least . 😕😕

Some how managed to cook , pack and deliver my food within 10 minutes. Food was just to say warm . Terrible would not recommend.

Good value for money and excellent customer service. Plus a great choice of food including Gluten free choice of good quality food. 💞💞💞😷😎😷

Trailing rosemary Plants have arrived today. Very good quality young plant. Well packed and have been well watered, soil still moist. Garden Express said on website deliveries were taking longer, they kept me well informed. Definitely use them again.

Best takeaway in the North east

Decent chips maybe risk some mushroom curry soon Glad the huge cancerous growth on my right side of my face intreged some of the white staff in this place such a laugh. Always Cancer now removed but always see a doctor straight away. Don't delay.

Excellent food fit for a king very clean,lovely staff quick delivery ,thanx very much Godbless.

SATURDAY TREAT FOR THE FAMILY, ON BALANCE PROBABLY THE WORST CHINESE MEAL I HAVE HAD THE MISFORTUNE TO EAT,................BLAND, SAUCES THIN AND TASTELESS. WAS MINE A CURRY? IF IT WASNT WRITTEN ON THE LID I WOULD NEVER HAVE KNOW, ORDER WAS ALSO INCORRECT......£75 WASTED

The worst chinese I have eaten in a long time. Only ordered from here as our usual was closed. All dishes extremely watery and tasteless. Kung po, sichuan and sweet and sour all basically the same red coloured gloopy water. Also got our order incorrect but it wasn't worth the time getting the order fixed as 90% of it ended up in the bin anyway.

Decent Food but customer service let down. Our order was given away by mistake, so had to wait for new food to be cooked. Thought they might have thrown in free prawn crackers at least as an apology. Cash only on collection inconvenient.

Ordered my usual last night Chicken chow mein and Singapore vermicelli (I always ask for Chicken instead of pork in vermicelli which they always do) but last night they was no chillies in my vermicelli 😬but I phoned them and 15 minutes later I had a fresh vermicelli complete with chillies 😍 Can't fault them x

Best Chinese in the area brilliant takeaway and even better restaurant which has nice staff and great atmosphere.

Beautiful food won't go anywhere else now . Crispy beef is on point

Great food an excellent delivery times

Absolutely disgusting ordered beef chilli honey don't know where the beef was? Took over an hour for delivery and was cold would give no stars if I could. Never again waste of money Just to add when I rang to complain the lady said she would pass my number onto the manager to ring me, one week later still waiting. Terrible food followed by terrible customer service!

Food was faultless, arrived well within stated time given and was piping hot. Personal favourite is the shredded chicken 👌. Would highly recommend

This is a great place to order fantastic chinese food. Always delivered when required and piping hot. One of our go to takeaways.

Exceptional food by far the first real chinese ive had in years. Will be returning

Order taken wrong....rang back to get it corrected...waited 2 hours! Still wrong...WOW

Hello we ordered a chineese on Wednesday 4th November we ordered house special fried rice gravy sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice when I received my order the sweet and sour chicken was just thin pieces of chicken and a sauce that did not even resemble sweet and sour sauce I'm sorry to say but the chicken and the sauce were disgusting we use your takeaway 3-4 times a week and have never had a bad meal but tonight we've both been a work from 9 am till 9 pm and were both extremely disappointed by the standard of food I'm sorry for complaining but tonight the standard fell week.below your usual standard thankyou for taking time to read this

Usually this place is spot on but today I've waited over 1 1/4 hours phoned up to see how long it would be and was told they are just leaving the shop which I understand it's a Saturday night so was OK then 40 mins later phoned back up and was told it will be another 20 mins at least. Cancelled my order in the end as I was sick of waiting 😩

Very nice food and very cheap for Chinese food

Placed order at 4 20 for 6 o'clock delivery arrived at 7 15. Food was luke warm. Don't order takeaway very often but looking at rave reviews thought we would give it a try sorry to say this is the first time i have had to complain about poor service. It might have been nice if i hadn't had to put it in microwave to warm it up

lovely food, very quick. No issues at all.

Never had a bad experience. Food is always piping hot and on time. Best Chinese I've ever had!! I would tell everyone to come here! Staff are polite and friendly and its always busy and they still.manage to keep things delivered and collections all on time. Nothing is ever too much for them!

Just had a lemon chicken the driest toughest chicken ever also hardly any sauce total disappointment as given number from the restaurant expected better. More in bin than eaten

Part order missing so when it eventually arrived the rest of order was no longer hot. Egg Fried rice tasted greasy and overcooked. The crispy shredded duck with pancakes wasnt shredded .... it was deep fried in batter on the bone !?! The lemon chicken barely came with any lemon sauce. Disappointed and a waste of £29.50 as approximately £27 of it went in the bin. Save your money and get a chinese box meal from Asda!

Literally the best Chinese (vegetarian) I’ve ever had! And I have very high standards. I could not get over how good it was! Can’t wait to try more of the menu

The owner of this takeaway is a bully he bullys all of young girls who work in there he is aggressive he has anger issues they handle and cook food with no gloves on and masks on and no social distances in this small takeaway

Amazing place.. food is always tip top. Staff are canny to.. owner is great..

Omg 5 star all the way .got advised to try it from a friend and now it is our only chinese we will be going to

Food is good, very expensive now

Nice clean place, average food.

First time ordering was within the 2-3hr ordering time (due to covid19) starters were lovely both had the soup, prawn toast and prawn crackers. Mains sweet and sour was very dry no taste or flavours or meat. Pork honey and chilli again no spice or flavours again very dry. Very disappointed with first time order wont be using again 😣

Mixed views, had set meal for 2 , rice & prawn crackers were nice & pork chow main bit dry but tasty , crispy duck was soggy & bland , bbq ribs were just ribs no taste , would order again but not the ribs or crispy duck

First order since lock down, so appreciate you being open, was told an hour n fifteen, came in just under an hour, lovely driver, thank you everybody, we all full now n satisfied, stay safe 👍🤗

Absolutely gorgeous food thanks for prompt delivery lovely staff

over rated,4 times asked for my meat to be cooked well as this is how i like it only for the beef to be under cooked every time,just shows they dont read your requests on your order

Were told 1 hour for food, came within 25 minutes which was great however half of our order was missing, rang up was told it would immediately be sent to us only to have to ring back half an hour later as still waiting, was then told driver had already left so should be 5 mins again waited another 15mins, the rest of our food was freezing cold as we had waited 45 mins for the rest of it to come.

Just got box meal only took 15 minutes and is gorgeous and piping hot ...highly recommended

Always amazing food and service, daughter and I have just been for duck fried rice. Its simply amazing every time. Thank you we will be back very soon

Poor quality meat no taste veg like lumps of rubber friendly young lass serving. Clean and cooked in front of you. All this went in the bin

Rang for delivery to be for the last order and it come within 25 minutes of me ringing as I work nights looks like I'm having soggy chinese for tea

Phone just ringing out, time to go somewhere else.

Chicken in plum sauce is tasteless chicken covered in golden syrup, one of the worst take aways ever had

Ordered food still waiting 1st time ordering doesn't give u confidence to order again

Really quick delivery, very nice food. Thank you for a great service

Great food quick service, don't accept card payments in-store ☹️

Our go to Chinese for delivery (and eating in at their main restaurant). Good portion sizes so its great value for money, recommend the set meals as there is always enough left over for lunch the next day. The appetizers are the real selling point, smoked chicken is amazing.
