Peking Gourmet in Southampton

Was really greasy & chicken was fatty. Cold when arrived. Over priced- £31 for rice, chips & sweet & sour chicken. Didn't even eat, went in the bin. Food used to be nice from here

Unfortunate got food poison, don't take cc, what atmosphere. Needless to say not going back.

The best Chinese takeaway I’ve had, consistently fantastic

This is a takeaway. Cash only but worth it. They have an open kitchen which is always good to see. Ordered from here a couple of times and not disappointed. Food is piping hot and delicious. Really good chow mien and spring rolls. Highly recommend

The best chinese around without doubt

One of the best Chinese in Southampton

Wouldn't eat from any other place 10 outa 10 👌

Always great food. Cooked in front of you. To take away. Still great 👍 and great tasting.

Been going for years, usually very good, but I’m now put off, as their FSA food safety rating, inspected in January 2024 has gone down from 5 stars to only 3….

Fave Chinese in woolston! Bit annoying it’s cash only, however worth it, 10/10

Not sure if the chefs have changed but not up to usual standards. Have used Peking Gourmet for many years as it’s been so good but the shredded beef was so overcooked it was like string and the rest was just lacking real taste.

The chips where cold took 1 hour and 30 mins for delivery and very poor quality of food will not be ordering from here again shame really cause it’s local to everywhere near woolston if your gonna do good do it at its best please

We had a takeaway from here (chicken balls, black bean and starters) and it was delicious. Fast preparation and easy collection. Would use again.

Waited nearly two hours for soggy rice, sweet curry sauce and smallest portion of chips ever. Sweet and sour was OK. Sorry guys never again .

Very good! Fresh, delicious and good price

Always great hot food. Staff and drivers happy and helpful. Recommend the chicken curry.

The BEST Chinese I’ve had, won’t go anywhere else now. Constantly recommending this place to others. Yes the prices have increased slightly but per person is still cheaper than most Chinese take always. Great value and even better food.

Food is excellent every time service is great Many thanks

Allways amazing friendly staff but Allways busy I suppose is a good thing x

The food is super good lovely polite staff very very fast service. And again super tasty food.

Best Chinese Takeaway around Southampton, food always tastes fresh and is piping hot.

Fast delivery and pick up. always very tasty.

Best Chinese in the area, hands down, open kitchen which always a plus! Cash only.

Best Chinese ever 👌 staff are friendly and you can watch them cook your food. I've been using them for over 5 years now and wouldn't go anywhere else!

Best to phone and collect order as could be up to 45 minute waiting time for delivery

Good Chinese, food cooked in front of you

The best takeaway in Woolston, period. These are some really hardworking bunch of guys who prepare fresh food right there in front of you. We always ask them to make our order spicy and are never disappointed. We love the prawn starters, their vegetable fried rice and curry sauces it’s the perfect dinner on a cold evening. Service is quick too. Haven’t had a more than 10-15 min wait time and prices are quiet reasonable for the quantity provided. All in all will be ordering from them a lot more in the future!

Food fresh and tasty always speedy and ready when they say it will be (for collection)

Great taste, great value for money.

Top quality food. Always delicious!

Takeaway always fresh and tasty. Reasonably priced. Friendly.

Food is always really great, cooked in front of you. Fast service, best takeaway in Southampton

Excellent quality decent delivery service love this place best Chinese takeaway in Southampton

Best Chinese takeaway in Southampton!!! no question!

Lovely food and open kitchen. Never had a bad meal from here. Highly recommended.

Very friendly staff served quickly and all cooked in front of me but was a little disappointed with food batter on bannana fritters were soggy I like mine crispy but was given lots of chicken balls though.

I have been looking for a Chinese as good as this in Southampton for years. This is definitely the best in Southampton. I've ordered many times and it's always fresh tasting and I've never had any complaints, please keep it up! 😆

Excellent food never had a bad meal from here highly recommend

It used to be the best Chinese but prices are now high and the portions are becoming ridiculously small very very disappointed on my last visit

Truly a gem of a place - the fact that you can see how they prepare your food from the counter makes you feel at ease about the quality of their cooking. Portion sizes are massive and the food is gorgeous especially the Singapore Fried Rice 👍🏼 everything is deliciously prepared. We were short of a quid as they only accept cash payments, bring enough cash with you. Despite that they let us go - we will definitely be back to try their other dishes, and the return the £1.

I love this place. Everyone is so friendly and greet us like old friends. I love to go in and just watch them cook while waiting for our food. I love water chestnuts and thay happily add them to my noodles. We also have delivery sometimes and it always delivers hot and on time 😀

Waited nearly 2 hours for delivery and was then charged extra for delivery. I was told this was because we live over 3 miles away even though its actually 2.9 miles. Food was pretty average

Terrible! we had high hopes for this Chinese as we had all read the great reviews, but sadly our experience wasn’t good at all, we ordered at 6.10pm it was a big order for 11 people , so a good earner, was told it would be about an hour and 10 minutes, which we were more than happy with, when it got to 7.40pm we gave them a ring to see if it was on its way, but no! It hadn’t even been started and there were now 20 in front of us! We had 5 children within the group so we couldn’t wait the extra hour they said it would be, so we cancelled, rung another local Chinese ( Aladdins den) who had our big order ready in 15 minutes which we then collected , so sadly I won’t be trying them again, it would of been helpful if they had rung to tell us of the delay, then we could have rearranged much earlier

Food was OK but service and wait times at the shop are just appalling. We were told that we would get our order in 30 minutes, then to expect a further 10 - 15 minutes but the total was 55. Asking for updates is pointless as you will be met with a terse “We busy!” response. Oh, and they only take cash. I don’t recommend them.

The only Chinese restaurant we use, we love the food and have never had anything other than excellent no wrong orders and always within 45 minutes delivery easily the best in Southampton

Every dish was delicious, fast service and good quality food.

Great Chinese. Happy to tweak menu items for fussy eaters and always super quick to get the food ready.

My new favourite. Wasn't greasy at all will order again

Really lovely food and wasn't greasy at all this is my new fav place

Wow, found on Google search and really pleased with everything. Definitely using again.

Really good quality takeaway. Salt and pepper ribs are exceptional. The staff are nice and you can watch the food be prepared infront of you. Only shame is that they don't do crispy noodles!

For a take away... brilliant, the food was lovely, it was recommended to me, and I'm glad they did. If you want a Chinese takeaway this is your place. Also cash only, please be ware no cards, though cash machine near by. I rate my take aways on quality, taste, and if its over greasy. Which this ticks all the boxes.

Nice meal and you can watch them make it as well

One of the best Chinese takeaways in Woolston...

Absolute worst Chinese takeaway ever !! Charges for food then don't deliver all the dishes ordered. The high price if the food is mind blowing and size of the dishes (5 in total) are what I would say are on the small size !! I'd recommend looking somewhere else

Beef dish very tough not tender not very hot on delivery

Came here a second time for take aways. Food is good for the price and staff are always friendly and cheerful.

A good range of takeaway foods at a reasonable price, cash only however so be aware of this

Always on time, if not, then it's early! Lovely food! Great prices!! delivery driver is always happy. Highly recommended

Clean place, food cooked in front of you while you watch. Free parking right out side the shop door, great for customers with health restrictions or wheel chair dependant. 11 October 2020 menu had a 50 pence price increase. 13.02.21. Ordered take away costing £28.70 which included vegetable pancake rolls, at home found the pancake rolls had no vegetables inside them, so remember not to order then and waste £2.20 🤔🙄 Update review 11.06.21. 👀☹️ Yet again another price raise on all items in the menu, some items up by 30 pence. If your viewing the blue menu at home add 30 pence to each item you are ordering just to cover the unknown cost 😉 🤔👍 If collecting your order, pick up the new RED menu with the new prices. If ordering by phone for delivery ask them to put a copy of their new menu in your bag.

Hey I've been there for the last two evenings what does that tell you it's a no brainer tops.

Been here dozens of times . Couldn’t believe how far down the list of takeaway restaurants in Southampton it was . This is not an exaggeration this is the best Chinese takeaway in England . (And I’ve had a few). Accurate and quick delivery too and if you go in and collect you will see they cook every dish freshly in front of you . Do not miss

The food is always fresh and hot. Always delivered quick and is by far the tastiest Chinese food ive had in Southampton

Easily the best Chinese this side of the water. Nothing comes close

1st time ordering takeaway delivery from peking gourmet, food was delicious, tasted freshly cooked. Recommend highly! Ensure you order an hour before hand as I imagine they get very busy! But worth waiting for .

Tasty meals, the portion sizes are good, clean premises and fa a friendly service. It is advisable to order plenty in advance as they get pretty busy especially on a Saturday night. we have been using this restaurant for years and have never been disappointed.

First time been here very clean & you can see the food being cooked which is good would recommend the special fried rice & beef in black bean sauce its was lovely

Great open plan layout. Nice to see staff making the dishes. Friendly staff. Great food!

Ordered from here for many years! Never an issue and the foods amazing!

A super Chinese takeaway situated in Victoria Road Woolston. Whenever we fancy a Chinese takeaway we always go to this place in Woolston Southampton and have never yet been disappointed with anything that we've ordered. They have a super selection of dishes to order and there is always plenty of it, and they also provide a really good delivery service.

Extremely tasty food the best in the area.

First time trying it the other day. Will be back for more as the food was lovely and you can see them cooking it. Fast service and friendly staff

Second Best chinese in southampton, by far. Fusion noodle bar makes all other Chinese restaurant/ takeaways look really bad.

Been ordering for about 4 years ,had no problems, food 5 * BUT TONIGHT had no rice with my curry witch I have every time , ring up and told have to pay extra and have to wait 15 to 20 minutes, no point, really disappointed as had really good service before .

95% of the time this is the best chinese takeaway going.... enjoy....

Always use best Chinese around for collection or delivery great food

Its the best Chinese in Southampton.

I always order now from peking Gourmet as I Like the layout of the shop ( open)so you can see them cooking your food and it puts my mind at rest that it’s clean etc and also it’s tasty tasty food too!! Only thing is if you order from home be expected to wait at least an hour for delivery 🚚 as it’s very POPULAR!!! That’s also a big yea yea .. so put your order in a bit earlier and you won’t be disappointed folks x

After reading the reviews on here I decided to go to the Peking gourmet as I'm only here for one night. Was expecting something good but it wasn't. Chicken balls over cooked and bland flavour, most of it went in the bin. Do not recommend this place.

Best Chinese in the area good food good service love it very cleanx

One visit was enough. My meal tasted of Soy Sauce and nothing else.. Far too much salt.

Nice to see your food being cooked in front of you. Clean premises and attentive staff.

Great food. Great timing. Ordered for 12 people the day before and arrived all on time and every meal was perfect. Will definitely be ordering again! Great service

Loved it, authentic food cooked right in front of you. Good size portions. Would highly recommend

Great food never had a problem throughly delicious can't recommend them enough.

great food always go there on Sunday

Always great food cooked in front of you can't recommend them enough

My favourite chinese great food

Out of all the local Chinese takeaways in Woolston (and we have tried them all!), they are the freshest, quickest and most delicious of the lot. They have an open kitchen and are really friendly. Would highly recommend.

We always buy from this Chinese. Always good value and excellent food.

Eaten here for 4 years. Cheated on them with a different Chinese last week. Never again, food didn't even come close to this place. Best Kung Po Chicken I have ever eaten. Will now never go anywhere else!

Definitely recommend ordering from here; you are able to see your food being prepared in front of you. They also adapt the dishes as to your own taste, our family favourite is the Singapore fried rice, sweetcorn chicken soup and their chowmein. The guys who take your order are really helpful and kind, who really know to respect you.

This place is a joke wouldn’t order from here again was told an hour wait for food waiting a hour and half the honed store and got told it left half an hour later still not arrived. When food did arrive driver was so rude.

This place was recommended so we tried it. Was certainly not disappointed. Lovely food.

Everything is cooked fresh not a

Nice food. You can see it been cooked as they have an open kitchen. Delivery service too!

Very nice food. Quick service. Average on friendliness. Pricey though.

I always enjoy the food that I takeaway from the Peking Gourmet.

Very nice Chinese food and super quick service.

Nice food! Always on time, always as good as the last!
