Peking Phoenix in Eastleigh

Very nice chinese food on first try here. Well presented food was piping hot will definetly hav again .

The first time we had the sweet and sour chicken balls, they were fluffy and light with moist chicken. Unfortunately the next two times they were dry and hard, so we’ll be looking for another Chinese takeaway. Shame as most of the other food we’ve tried has been pretty good.

Not sure what’s happened to the food quality lately. We have previously used Peking phoenix as our go to delivery, even though it’s a bit further out and charges for delivery. Unfortunately, the last two times we have used them, the see er and sour chicken balls have been inedible. The balls are tiny, dry and hard. Even trying to put a fork through them has been challenging. they are more like over cooked oven bake chicken nuggets. A real shame as previously the food has been exceptional. Sadly will not be using again.

Growing up trying there food when i was a child remembering every part of the meal was a total explosion of food heaven, went tonight after 35 years, same name, same owners passed down, was a inplosion , lack of spice, lack of meats and veg in it, it was enemic, want to thank u for trowing away the best food memorys ive ever had.

Have been going for years and never had a bad meal. Service is amazing so is food.

Very nice local Chinese with reasonable service and food. Duck very tasty but not Soho quality. Its did have table clothes

5 of us went for the buffet option for £27.95 each. Sounds a bit steep but it's worth every penny. The buffet is cooked freshly to order and there are plenty of choices. All food delivered was hot and tasty and we all agreed that it was most probably one of the best Chinese food experiences in a very very long time. We will be back and highly recommend this restaurant.

Hi everyone, On the day 8/3/24 I made an order around 10pm my son went to pick up at 10:30pm. I ordered 2 servings of king prawn rice 1 sweet and sour chicken 1 ribs and 1 crispy seewed 36£ aprox. The rice came without king prawn each ration had 3 shrimps what seems to me a scam, the chicken was a small tray is no longer a large tray like that of rice. I called and as they had closed they did not give me solution, I just had to call the next day. Why should I call? Why didn’t the manager call me back with any offer? It is not the first time that I buy there in this restaurant it was my favorite restaurant of Chinese food, I seem to have played with my time and money, took advantage of the closing time to send me anything. This makes you lose a regular customer. Sorry!

Disappointed, waste of money. Tasted like it was cooked yesterday and heated back up. Chow mein was rubbery and hard, had better microwave meals to be completely honest. Won’t order again unfortunately

Lost a regular customer over not be able to deliver because value was £2 under minium (usually spend much more than minium required for delivery)

We ordered this evening for the first (and definitely not the last) time. We consider ourselves “foodies” (despite this being a takeaway review) and can say everything was cooked to perfection, very tasty and clearly very fresh. Not only that, the delivery was surprisingly quick and everything arrived piping hot. Highly recommended.

Visiting friends we had a takeaway in the evening and it was one of the worst we've ever had. Noodles very salty and greasy, chicken balls very dry, bean curd in black sauce very salty, crispy seaweed was coated on so much salt. All the food we received was unacceptable to eat salty greasy and expensive it went in the bin. Won't be having food from here again.

We had a takeaway from here and it was the best Chinese takeaway we have had ever!!!

Went for evening meal had the buffet the food was really good enjoyable evening. Thank you

Ordered here for the first time. I will not be using these again. My order was nearly two hours over due. They also missed food off my order that cost over £80 for a family celebration. Phoned several times to be told driver on his way. When he eventually arrived, I got no apology at all. If you can not handle the demand then don’t take orders. Considering this was an order placed mid week and not a weekend, I would have expected better service.

Not been here for years... Food was absolutely spot on, great menu and friendly service would definitely recommend if you are looking for a good Chinese

Awful. Phoned for a meal delivery for a family party and was told it would be 1.5 hours. This was just about acceptable. After 2 hours and no food or update we called back to be told it was in the car with the driver. Another half hour went by and we called back. This time we were told it hadn’t left the restaurant. This meant the food would be cold in any case if they even got round to delivering. Given the assurance of a delivery time and false information when requested I wouldn’t trust this restaurant. Have previously had a nice meal in the restaurant but cannot trust them for delivery.

Peng Chinese, order and regular order from here, also delivery time is quick and offer free prawn crackers and free delivery which is really amazing in general, food arrive hot all the time , amazing and just what you need , I'm drunk writing this but get this if you are craving Chinese , is amazing.

Only had a delivered takeaway but it was the best takeaway ever. Absolutely superb, thank you

We had a delivery from the Peking Phoenix and definitely the best Chinese meal we have ever had. Arrived on time and was delicious. Will be using them again in the future.

We had a lovely meal here, called ahead to check if there was space for 2 which they fitted us in. Staff were nice and friendly. Food was delicious, we had the Peking celebration from the a la carte menu each course was excellent no long waits, food seemed to arrive just in time. Would definitely visit again...

Our usual go-to Chinese was closed so we rang for delivery. Large rice and noodles for 4 were great but main courses were pretty small in comparison. But the flavour of the chicken in yellow bean sauce with cashews was next level lovely meal, but portion police was a bit strict.

The best chicken and mushroom soup in England. And their black bean sauce dishes are so flavoursome. And always friendly and welcoming.

We were staying in the nearby Travellodge for a funeral. We were late arriving and looking for somewhere to eat and I googled this restaurant. We had a take away. Pleasant, helpful staff to us 4 old aunties. Gave us everything we needed to eat at our hotel (it was late and didn’t want to eat in). The food was piping hot and delicious. Would recommend

First and last time I order a Chinese from here, I was told it’d be the usual delivery time like most takeaways. In which I was obviously happy with! (45mins) .. after an hour I phoned for an update and was told it has just left and it should be with us anytime now, and they apologised as they were really busy. A further 30 minutes went by and I rang again questioning where my order was and I got told the same thing.. ( the order left 35 minutes ago) .. sorry we are really busy. 15 minutes after that food turned up completely cold. At this point I accepted defeat and had a cold meal. I’m sure I will not be the only unhappy customer tonight!

Diverse menu Superb service And experience

Opposite a park with a lovely old bandstand you will find this great eatery. It is only open evenings and there is free parking across the road after 6.00 pm. The food was very good and usual we ordered far to many dishes in order to get a wide range of tastes. We were not disappointed but vey full. So Pin and her team we’re very efficient and cheerful without being pushy. Highly recommend a visit.

Had a takeaway food wasnt the best luke warm and was like it was overcooked or yesterdays food heated up had alot better takeaways used this one due to staying at friends house dissapointed

Took my Dad out for Fathers Day. It was so lovely and the food was amazing especially the spicy chicken wings! Lovely service and friendly staff - we both agreed we couldn’t fault it and will definitely be back.

Nice food Quick service Has a bar

Great buffet deal and lovely food

Very nice chinese resturant . Wide choice on menu. Food very good and staff very polite a traditional Chinese resturant which has been operating in Eastleigh for least 30 years.

Service was really quick, ordered in store and our wait seemed very short to get the food, nice surprise. Food was all present and correct. Prawn crackers were great, light not greasy and good flavour. Mixed starters were nice, spring rolls looked slightly dark but we're very light, ribs typical Chinese style, prawn toast was the best, large slice full of flavour. Satay sauce was great. Mains were OK, nicely cooked. Chow mein was a large portion, with large prawns. Kung Po was radioactive red, I prefer it lighter and more spicy. Will likely return for dine in and will use again for takeaway as the best Chinese we've found in the area.

We found this Chinese restaurant by chance, at what a find it was. We had a thoroughly delightful meal on a Saturday evening. Good food and very friendly service. Will definitely use it again when in the area!

There can be only one " best Chinese in Eastleigh" this is it by a bloody mile.

Been going here for few years staff excellent the food is always hot and price are good the little Chinese lady is always very helpful nothing never to much for her

The food was delicious and the service was excellent

What an amazing find, food was freshly made and delicious, staff were really friendly and welcoming! All in all we had a fantastic meal and rolled out the door happy

Very warm and friendly. Really good food at a very good price.

Great food, very tasty. Service was very good, friendly and caring. Overall it was an excellent place to eat with a warming atmosphere.

We have been coming her for years and love it. The service is great and the food delicious. We always get a very warm welcome and come here as a couple, with our older children and with friends - would recommend highly!

If you want a proper old school Chinese with great food and great service look no further. Decor could do with a touch up but otherwise it was brilliant. Could not fault the food at all.

Superb Chinese, all freshly made to order. Fabulous menu with too many delicious foods to try. My sister is a regular visitor and it was just the two of us on this occasion. We had the ribs, dumplings, chicken chow mein, squid and sizzling prawns…….so delicious!

I have been using these guys for many many I have never had a bad meal or bad service

Buffet service was good, pleasant staff.

Booked a table for ten, great food, great service and great value.

Food not fresh .tast days old

Excellent food and clean restaurant. The food was very well presented. Must try and salt & pepper squid and chicken curry, best in town by miles.

We ordered for a take a way it was done with time to spare happy with the stand of food use to go here over 10 year ago so nice and gave us a beers on the house such a nice thing to do should be 6 stars

Fab food and great service. Would definitely recommend!🤩

Quality of food is first class and the restaurant has a really nice atmosphere.

Have used them for take away Excellent food and prompt delivery

Of all the reviews I have done as a local guide this has to be the worst. I attended today having read the Google reviews and what a complete waste of time. On arrival from the hotel, we asked if they could provide a table for four and whether they had any lagers on draught. The response was the most rudest response I have ever experienced in a restaurant. Not sure if this gentleman was the owner or the waiter but his response was ‘you asked for a table sit down then I’ll answer your question about the lagers’ - he stood there in a threatening pose and more or less was saying sit down or get lost. I responded by asking the same question again and said that he was being rude, to which he shrugged his shoulders, threw the four menus into the pile and walked away. Do not waste your time going here, the place did not look great at all and then the disgusting attitude wow

Nice place for groups. They seemed a bit flustered, and not too sure on what was available. The food eventually arrived and was very nice. Decor a bit grim.

Best Chinese in the whole area. Great food each time and good portion sizes.

Went with two other people. The restaurant wasn't very busy because it was midweek. The staff were really pleasant and attentive, and offered advice on what to have. When the food came three of the dishes looked the same, with a strange red sauce covering them. The sweet and sour chicken in a red sauce didn't taste like any sweet & sour I've ever had. The crispy chilli beef (also in a red sauce) wasn't crisp but it was very chewy. The rice and prawn crackers were ok. Not the best we've ever had and the price was on the high side as well. I think it might be a while before we try it again.

I went to this restaurant on my 13th birthday, and I am now 43. I was a regular user until circumstances prevented a return for a few years. My family and I started to return after the Pandemic and the quality had not changed. We now go every month as we cannot decide on any other restaurants and do feel like risking another when we know how good this is. this month we've had an issue with a family member who has been unable to leave the house. We were hoping to wait it out, but we couldn't resist and have now started having takeaways from here...even though there are closer options available. The food and staff are just too good. I intended to have my 60th birthday here!!!

I have not been to this restaurant in 16year when live in Eastleigh, but I must say it is still just as good now as it was then. The staff are really friendly and food is excellent.

Really quick and friendly service. We'll be going back soon!

This restaurant is a gem, authentic flavours and a wide choice of food. I hugely enjoyed my time there! Truly recommended!

This made my top 3 worst dining experiences. Decor seemed nice enough, your typical Chinese restaurant catering for English people. Ambiance was also nice. My partner and I were greeted at the door and shown to a table, again, standard fare. We had a quick browse through the menu and ordered wonton soup, "minced pork szechuan", "confusion of the cabbage", deep-fried squid and plain rice. The food arrived fairly quickly, not surprising considering Chinese chefs often use a powerful flame which cooks the food in the wok rather quickly. Sadly, the food with which we were met resembled something quite vile. The "minced pork szechuan" tasted like ketchup and sweet chilli sauce mixed together, plus additional sugar. The cabbage was coated in sugar-vinegar, but the quantity of sugar was enough to slay 3 diabetics. Deep-fried squid was poorly (probably not even) seasoned and had the texture and taste of deep-fried shoe. I've had bad meals before, and usually I just power through, pay, and never return, but this was different. After about 10 minutes of forcing it down I began to feel nauseous and sweaty. Eventually admitting defeat, I called over presumably the owner (she went around table to table asking how everything is) and tried to tepidly critique the food as I don't like confrontations. She proceeded to not even acknowledge what I was saying, responding with "yeah you can take it home, eat tomorrow, no problem". This forced me to be straight with her and mention how terrible and inedible the food is, but she continued her charade and pottered off. I mentioned my nausea to a waiter, he simply pointed and said "toilet that way" as if this is a common occurrence. At this point the nausea and sweating was bad, and I was going over in my head how we should only pay for the beer, wonton soup, rice and prawn crackers (this was all we actually ate, bar a few mouthfuls of the aforementioned), but due to my cowardice and impending sickness we paid the full amount and slunk out, defeated. One thing I'd also like to mention, throughout the meal/ordeal the wait staff were stood there in opposite sides of the room, continually staring at us. Unnerving. Avoid like the plague (or like bad Chinese food).

Best buffet ribs fantastic, duck excellent 👍 worth the money

Just had a lovely meal full up hope to see u soon

Capital rib sauce tastes great but don't get it on your skin lol

Lovely food, went waiting staff, value for money

Peking Pheonix has been a favourite of ours for years now. The staff are alway positive and friendly, the service is quick and efficient. The menu has many choices and the food is always hot, tasty and extremely filling! Pricing is on par with most places and worth every penny, they evn do take away with local delivery, which is also quick and always arrives hot.

Lovely food great atmosphere nice staff

Best Chinese in Eastleigh by a mile.

Friendly staff, great service and delicious food.

Constantly engaged on the phone. Shame! I’ll go elsewhere.

Been here before and hope to come back again. Friendly staff, good service, great food. The duck went down well with our group.

Really disappointed in the quality of food and size portions to what Ive usually had from this place. Food was cold and sizing was much smaller than before. This used to be my number one Chinese and now unfortunately I don't think I'll ever order again. Gutted as a Chinese takeaway is a once in a blue moon treat!!

Great restaurant, excellent food.

Normally the food and service from here is exemplary. However, tonight two main dishes were missing from the delivery and took over half an hour from informing them that they were missing to turn up. As a result the rest of the food was cold! Also they phoned back to check what was missing and questioned my partner in a way which made her feel as though they thought we were lying! The quality of the food is not as good as normal, not just because some of it was cold!

Fantastic service, great choice of dishes and the food was delicious. We went on a recommendation and would recommend to others.

The atmosphere was amazing and the staff welcoming, I would recommend the duck it was great and definitely worth the price, the crispy chilli beef and the smoked chicken.

Good food. The buffet portions are huge. They have a policy dont order what you cant eat..went as a group and ordered something different from the menu for each person and all dishes were tasty. Good night out.

Love this place. Always good food and friendly staff

Visited this restaurant for about the 8th time. The service is always friendly and efficient, the food is always very tasty and well presented. Will definitely be going again........and again.

Visited this restuarant while on a visit to Eastleigh to see my dad & his partner. It was a really good experience & a very good meal. The people who run it are super friendly & efficient and we all enjoyed our meal and had a fab evening in a lovely setting.

My husband’s dish of crispy beef was ‘spot on’ I ordered scallops.... not as they appeared on the menu, in a batter that was so salty I couldn’t eat it, the salt had seeped into the sauce making that inedible, removed the batter to find what likened to crab sticks, reconstructed something, certainly not scallops! So a meal my husband thoroughly enjoyed & One I couldn’t eat

The worst Chinese meal I have ever had. Ordered the sweet and sour Hong Kong style and it was terrible. Hardly any sauce, had a chicken and pineapple rice, which had 2 pieces of chicken, 4 bits of pineapple and half a dozen peas. Definitely will not be using again and do not recommend

What an amazing meal yes took longer than expected for delivery but It is New Years Eve... First time ordering here and will definitely be coming back here....brilliant meal...

Menu is fab .set menu or pick ur own dishes good prices great tasty food

Very warm and friendly establishment with great food, Covid compliant, definitely recommend the dry ribs.

I’ve been dining here for over 20 years and never had a complaint , I’ve tried several other Chinese restaurants but always go back to this one , always look after you and made to feel at home ,, great atmosphere

Food was nice and arrived on time. I will recommend them.

Delivered on time and hot. Quality ingredients and delicious

We've been coming here regularly for about five years now and the quality of the food and welcome from the family is always absolutely amazing. We are big fans of Chinese cuisine (having travelled to China several times) so our expectations are always very high,...

Food and service 5* so welcoming and safe... Always a delight to eat in at this restaurant

Recently had a take away from here, and having tried a few Chinese restaurants in Eastleigh and Bishopstoke, this is the best by some way. They accept a early order over the phone (keep the kids happy). Food wasn't greasy and overly sweet compared to...

My Godson's favorite restaurant! Just celebrated his 18th here and they looked after us extremely well. Several separate tables allowed us to be together whilst apart for the current restrictions. Good food and plenty of it! Thanks for making it a special day.

Food average. Some tasty dishes, but overall average. Menu on website does not correspond to seat in menu. Staff friendly and hospitable. Social distancing well organised and reassuring.

A very good experience. Easy to park nearby, staff very courteous and friendly, a good menu, sensible pricing, good service, nice ambiance, all good! Highly recommended!

Ate in today with the all you can eat buffet menu. Really impressed, food was lovely and piping hot. Staff were extremely friendly and made the whole experience very enjoyable. Tables nicely spaced out for social distancing and staff wearing masks too. Highly recommend!

Our first restaurant after lockdown. We were a bit apprehensive but everything went well. There are less tables, the waiters wear masks and they make you wash your hand with alcoholic solution.

This is the best,for a sit down,have been using the place for years,its always good they seem to remember you and normally get same seats

This is, by a mile, the best Chinese takeaway in Eastleigh. The soup is always lovely, the pork dumplings with vinegar dip are also excellent. Sweet and sour king prawn is a great main course. Cannot be faulted. I would say, if you are collecting...

Food good, young staff a bit reserved.

Both specials currys were very watery and no flavour ! Also messed order up by missing a rice and when I rang up they couldn't care less attitude. Very disappointed and won't use them again
