We moved to Dalgety Bay, just over a month ago. We have had 4 takeaways from the Peony Inn since then and have really enjoyed every meal. We have tried ordering different items from the wide menu every time and none of them have disappointed. Dim Sum and different fried rices in particular have been excellent. No hesitation in recommending this restaurant for anyone looking for great Chinese food.

Waiting staff seemed lovely but completely out of their depth. The place needed a deep clean and was verging on being unhygienic. Food was pretty average and nothing I'd come back for. Disappointed as this is literally the only Chinese restaurant within a four village radius. We'll be driving into Edinburgh going forward. Avoid.

Eaten here lots of times before but we no longer live in Scotland, so excited to go again after two years away. Food much lower standard, thin almost empty spring rolls and ribs that are mostly bone and gristle. However, by far the worst deterioration is the standard of cleanliness; the floor looked as if someone had walked food all over it then ground it in and whilst there were five servers (two smart ladies, two young girls and a man) one, the man, had on black trousers that were so stained and filthy looked as if he’s worn them for months, dirty pockets and stains all around the front (not simply one night’s stains, ingrained dirt) it made me feel queasy every time he walked by. The place - and waiter - needs a very very deep clean, we now hate to ponder what the bits we don’t see might look like. Don’t think we will return.

Regular customer and the food here is generally very good.. however... Twice and order has been wrong..ie the latest... Chicken fried rice,2 curry sauce and prawn crackers ordered.. £19.56 taken... Got home and the rice was plain instead... When you phone to explain it seems to be there's never a sorry or apologies.. it was if you want corrected you have to pay as it's been billed wrong.. in the car back round to correct and a bill for £27.00... stated the price seemed high for what was ordered only to be told we've upped our prices. Shame... Won't be returning and now understand why the resteraunt is so empty at times.

I have often ordered a Chinese takeaway from Peony Inn in Dalgety Bay and I can't recommend it enough. I always order the egg friend rice and curry sauce and I can never fault how tasty and fresh it is! The portion size of chips is amazing that you only need to order one portion between two people because otherwise you'd be struggling to finish it all. It's the best Chinese takeaway in the local area in my opinion!

Hi I have just received my order after 2 hours. It was not warm and the prawns and spring rolls were soggy when they should have been crispy. I have eaten it but not happy. We had to heat it up in the microwave. If I had not waited this long I would have sent it back. I will not be using restaurant again I phoned them twice and asked what was happening and could hear them in the background saying don’t know don’t know. Nobody had a clue what was going on.

Peony Inn was recommended by the Dalgety Bay hotelier during our stay. We visited last night. Don’t judge a book by its cover, behind the worn facade lies a little gem! We were attentively looked after all evening by a delightful Chinese lady who ensured we had a lovely evening. The meal we had is the best Chinese food we have had in years, delicious, authentic and piping hot. We had a bottle of the very reasonably priced Pinot Grigio Rose which went very well with he wonderful flavours of the food. I cannot recommend this lovely little restaurant highly enough, if you are in the area and are looking for delicious, authentic Chinese food absolutely look no further and make your way to a warm welcome at The Peony Inn. Next time I’m up in Scotland we will definitely be back Xièxiè nǐ

Everyone enjoyed their meal. Food was excellent portion sizes were good on the whole and the children's options were good too. I do think main meal prices are very expensive - to charge over £4 for a single portion of rice is hard to fathom over and above the main dish price.

Arrived with empty tummies and left with sore ones. Starter was decent but main dishes were bland and all tasted the same, simply drowned in sauce and tasteless. When shared our concern with staff a member of management came out and just simply wasn't listening and dismissed our opinion and disappointment in the food. Lacking empathy and customer service. No reflection on the bill and moved on to continue serving others. We paid in full for a awful meal and left. Will not be returning or recommending this restaurant.

My wife and I had a meal in the restaurant one evening just for a change, rather than simply ordering a takeout for collection or delivery. We both liked the extra choice you get in terms of menu items when you order as a sit in. There are also plenty of vegetarian options. It was a Wednesday evening and the place was empty! We pretty much had the whole restaurant to ourselves. We got excellent service from the friendly staff and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals in a quiet, calming atmosphere. We ordered a bottle of house Prosecco, starters, mains, and some of the delicious desserts and it came to around £68. I have to say that the food is tastier when it is served at a table, freshly cooked with the tea light food warmer to keep things hot.

Well firstly I was in two minds to write a review however let’s just say I’m so glad I had Snacks in I’m so disappointed and it was a shame as it’s always been amazing let’s start with the food everything was cold and I mean everything the dim sum was raw the soup tasted horrid and went like jelly as it was cold the rice was white and stuck together the satay was disgusting with honey like sauce poured over it and mushrooms in it the mussels were good but with only 2 in the tray the chicken was good but cold the beef was not up to the standard I expected the noodles were congealed together food was missing the spring rolls were swimming in fat and soggy for paying over 100 pound it was a waste of money with most of it going in the bin which I never thought I’d say as I’ve always had leftovers and enjoyed the countless times I’ve been .. also our dinner was booked and paid for for 2.30 and it was hours late …

Heard good reviews for here but meal was so disappointing I will not be ordering any time soon. Called to complain but the gentleman didn't seemed bothered and stated that I should have gone to collect it myself as he would have expected moisture to get to prawns causing them to look how they did.

Wait time far too long. First time here and probably my last time here. Recommended by a friend but unfortunately my experience wasn’t that great. Walked in to place an order for takeaway. Usually any other takeaway you would get your meal within 20 minutes. Without no exaggeration, I waited just over a hour in this place for a takeaway!!!! More fool me. Twice spoke to staff to get an update on progress of order, was promised it was in kitchen and will be ready very shortly. The staff are focussed on preparing orders for their delivery staff and walk ins are very much least prioritised. The food was just average, wasn’t great but wasn’t bad either. Wasn’t that impressed overall to be honest. The overall experience was poor. Prawn crackers were nice.

After ordering some wonderful meals by phone, we decided to go and eat there. Again, impressed – service was good, food is great, and on the surface the restaurant is clean and tidy, BUT if look more closely… The first photo I’m posting is of the door that leads to the kitchen, and what you’re seeing is a build-up of dirt that has been there a very long while. My imagination does not want to go further into their kitchens – I’ve seen the state of the toilets. I pretty much stuck to the floor. My sister sent them that photo along with some of the others she’d taken in October last year. She praised their food, but politely suggested that they give the place a deep clean – she didn’t get a reply, so I said I’d go back in a couple of months to see if they’d at least taken her advice on board. I've been back now, and I'm attached a mix of photos from both of those visits. They obviously have no respect for their customers.

Dropped in to The Peony Inn as it is one of the few Chinese restaurants still offering a table service in this area. The decor is pretty tired, 1970s raised pattern washable wall paper, a lot of marks on the walls beside the tables of indistinct origin, chairs with red satin covers with large bows on the back, a tiddling illuminated fountain as you entered ..... I think you are getting the idea. The staff are friendly and the car park ample to park the car off the road. I did look at the menu on line before our visit and it seemed pretty average and prices were also average. DO NOT go by the online menu prices. Prices in the place, to sit in are a good 4 pounds per dish more than shown on line. For a quite common ordinary Chinese dish, beef with black bean sauce, chicken curry etc, they are charging 9.50 when you could get these for around 5.50 in a take away. The rice dishes are around 10.50...... yes that is what you have to pay if you want rice with your main. It is a decent portion, but still way off the scale for rice. Spring roles are 3.80 ish but you do get two. Tough luck if you only want one and nobody fancies sharing. The dishes were cooked to the 70´s requirements, high in salt, meats were very tender, vegetables were crisp, sauces were gloopy and monosodium laced and there was nothing of note. The wine list seemed to be a bargain at 3.90 for a 175ml glass. In all, the food was OK, just OK, but I think they are kidding themselves on price for what they offer, in the current surroundings. If you can remember an average weekend in the 1970´s, then just pretend it is Friday. You went out to the pub at 7pm and it is now closing time and you are hungry, so you and your pals decant to the local Chinese for some nosh. If you can hold that nostalgic image, then you might find it OK. The Peony is really a throw back to the 70s, without the glitter, tank tops, feathered hair and tartan scarves.

My wife and I live in Yorkshire so we only visit the Peony a few times a year at most when up here visiting family, but it is always something we really look forward to. Last night was no exception, the food was superb as always and the staff very friendly and helpful. We had a large table near us with a group who seemed to be unhappy with everything but then insisted on taking all their uneaten food away with them and were extremely awkward and disrespectful to the staff (it looked like they were just angling for a free meal to us!). Despite that the staff remained totally professional and our experience was not compromised in any way. We felt so sorry for the manager who had to deal with these people but she was an absolute star, as she always is. Many people do not understand that just because they are sitting in the food is cooked in order so if there are a lot of take away orders then you might not get your food instantly but trust me you are treated well, served consistently fantastic food and always pleasantly surprised when the bill comes. I have eaten Chinese food all over the UK and overseas and the Peony is up there with the very best I have eaten anywhere. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

I ordered special chow mien with small noodles and was asked if I wanted sauce which I said yes too, when it came I took a few bites and I didn’t like the taste or the appearance of some of the items on my plate, what I think was supposed to be chicken didn’t look or taste anything like chicken, it was soft and gooey, I think there was squid in it, I actually couldn’t tell what some of the things were on my plate, on whole the dish was soggy and very unappetising, I spoke to the waitress who apologised and I ordered the same as my friend (which is what I normally have and was delicious) but a few minutes after ordering the “supervisor” came over and I can only say lectured me about the difference in the 2 ways they did chow mien dishes, about how the noodles are prepared, I told her it was nothing to do with the preparing it was the soggy mass that had landed on my plate that I didn’t like either the look or taste of, my friend beforehand had said he hated it when people ate their food then complained, I said the reason people don’t complain is because of this, because of being lectured on what she said was nothing wrong with the dish, being told it’s how they do it, I was told by the waitress that the chow mien would be deducted from the bill but when bill came it was on it, I got the waitress over and she told me the “supervisor” had told her to leave it on as there was nothing wrong with the food, believe me I love chow mien and have never came across one like this, I wish now I had taken a pic just to let you all see it, I argued that it was horrible, my friend said also that it looked terrible, she asked if I wanted to speak to the “supervisor” again, I said yes but I was overheard by someone else and was offered 20% off bill, which worked out slightly more than the cost of the dish, I accepted this but couldn’t understand why they just didn’t take meal off, it would have saved them a couple of quid, I felt the “supervisor” was very arrogant as tho how dare I not like the food and question it, I probably won’t be back, the reason being the supervisors attitude, you shouldn’t go to a restaurant and be treated that way..

Great food with a wide menu to suit all tastes. We ordered takeaway so can't comment on the interior. They called back after we placed our order to let us know about a shortage and offered a substitute which I thought was good customer service. And all our food was hot and tasty.

Poor quality food. We been forced to put that to the bin. Initially they were trying to overcharge us, then we discovered that they are giving away wrong food orders to wrong customers. Food was hot but too salty!!! No choice of meals when you ask for a set.Inside look tired and vintage. Same from outside. It was our third visit and no more.

I have been getting take away food from the Peony for several years now, always been very satisfied with the quality and quantity of the food.

Have eaten in and had takeaway lots of times. Always yummy food. Takeaway is always busy so that’s a good sign. Only criticism is that door is quite tatty looking which doesn’t give a good first impression.

Great local Chinese restaurant. Pleasant decor, attentive staff, reasonable prices. Try the Tsingtao chinese beer (pronounced Ching-dow). Sit in or take away. Free parking.

Interior of restaurant is tired and needs re-decorated and re-furbished. Food is good but very expensive. Should consider opening at lunchtime on the weekend.

It’s been a number of years since I have been in the restaurant but had a good experience with the food and the service that I decided to try a take away. Ordered aromatic lamb which comes with cucumber and leek salad, pancakes and hot sin sauce.

There was 3 of us and we booked in for 1pm. Having been before we tend to accept the high standard they have always maintained.

First time we have been to the Peony Inn and it was excellent, staff very attentive albeit the place was a tad quiet, food was really good and not too pricey.

Our favourite Chinese restaurant/takeaway in the local area. We have tried pretty much all of them but always end up here.

Had an all in one from here last night it was the first and only thing I ate that day. Tasted funny, 3 hours later I was puking my guts up all night, arse on the pan with projectile diaghrea and vomiting into the bath at the same time and still not well. I used to love it here. I did notice no food safety certificate on show, I will never eat from here again and will be reporting to fife council.

We had a friend visiting on Saturday evening and we all decided to have some Chinese food - once again the young lady on the other end of the phone was very pleasant, helpful and polite... a credit to the business. The food was delivered fairly quickly and was still very hot and delicious, too!

phoenix take awaylocation-icondockyard gatesChinese

We have used the Phoenix for many years but what's changed? Our three meals tonight were well below the usual standard we have been used to. Chicken with cashew nuts and yellow bean sauce. They didn't include any cashew nuts and the meals were all very bland. Chicken Thai Green Curry. Bland and large chunks of onion almost raw. Chicken Chowmein. Hardly a sign of chicken and noodles that tasted old. Not a pleasant experience and so disappointed. Will look elsewhere from now on unless someone responds to this review with a reasonable explanation for the change in quality.
