Poa San in Glasgow City

Attitude stinks, wont be back! Terrible customer service - better in the area who know what customer service is!!

Janet is suck a lovely lady king prawn is beautiful ! Superb wee restaurant

Delicious, authentic Chinese food with good serving sizes.

Order chicken noddle soup plus chicken curry fride rice . There where more ouion in than chick and tasteless

really rude manager and staff: missed a delivery by 10 mins and they phoned to give me abuse, even tho i was apologising and then barred me? really confusing and no way to run a take away.

Portion sizes are an absolute joke, ordered chicken fried rice and was absolutely shocked at the lack of chicken, actually phoned and complained but guy couldn't care less even when I told him I will never waste my cash in their place again!!!

Banging wee Chinese place been going since I was a kid n that was a long time a go. Yep mo worries with these guys 💯

Manager is very rude guy. The food isn’t stored properly within legal temperatures. Chips are left lying for days at room temp. This is UK we have food hygiene laws here. Unclean very dated interior. Food is bland and tasted like reheated from maybe day or two before. Do yourself a favour spend the money cooking at home.

No restaurant anymore sadly but great food also Famous Restaurant where Ian Blink Mcdonald was ambushed by Police for a 6 million Bank Job .

Food always arrives piping hot on time and fresh 😋

been coming here for a number of years, and it never fails to deliver , great ,oriental grub which is very reasonably priced. Sad it no longer has the option to dine in, now takeaway only. You need to try the 🐔 chicken baws n sweet n sour sauce, well worth the six and a 🦒 giraffe quid.

Take away it's my new place to go,value for money and hot by the time I get home.

Unfortunately no longer a restaurant. Excellent curry. Really friendly and engaging counter staff. Didn't have to wait long for food to be prepared.

Poor presentation, taste rather blunt and no prawn crackers with my order. The service was nice though and decent prices. Ordered egg fried rice with sweet n sour king prawn Cantonese style - average at best

Orderd a chicken curry and chips and noodles and sauce was far to thick was all lumpy was not happy went in bin also was a lot nipper than normal always beaut out here aswell am pregnant so couldn’t eat it that hot as incase put me into Labour and about ten times av had it never this hot or sauce this thick

Ordered sweet n sour chicken Cantonese style, got 5 small pieces of dry chicken and 2 pieces of pineapple in a small tub of sauce, absolutely horrible. Never again.

King prawn satay on the skewer is absolutely beautiful everything was fresh and tasty I definitely recommend

Usually Half decent...Been sitn waiting OVER A HOUR AND A HALF FOR A PLACE THAT IS 20MIS AWAY...SHOULDA WALKED.

Really lovely food never disappointed

Not used this restaurant in a long while have to say the curry and sweet and sour chicken was really nice will be back using it again .

Always great food been using for years

Ordered at 9.42 and dinner was here at 9.57.piping hot nice delivery driver friendly a ordered a chicken curry told the guy a was expecting and like my sauce not to nippy he done the chicken. The way I asked for normal chicken curry as a don't like breast anywhere atal and it was packed of chicken onion a and sauce was beautiful panckake rolls wow huge and best av tried am a fussy person and this is defo 10/10 rice beaut to all fresh and very tasty be back soon thanks for serving lovely food

Hard to find a nice curry these days just happened to find this place whilst passing ordered chicken breast curry slightly hotter as I like a kick and it’s beautiful spicy , chicken is tender I’ll be returning all the way from Cumbernauld

Food is reasonably good- ordered spring rolls, cantonese style sweet and sour pork, and chicken and blackbean stir fry. Food portions are generous and flavourful, menu options is very extensive.

Fantastic food, not expensive, brilliant.

Went here when out with my kids & the food was beautiful . I had to Google as I can't wait to order again . Delicious & my new go to

Best curry I've had in years from a carry out chinese it's not a restaurant anymore just carry out or delivery just started using this place I wont go anywhere else now. 5 stars from me

Been going to poa San for years but over last year half food has been going downhill just isn't getting any better . I stopped ordering for few months hoping it would get better ordered food tonight chips reheat brick hard discolored food just awful and I was hungry ready for some food usually a will eat most things when am that hungry couldn't eat definitely staying clear of this place now gave it to many chances hoping it would change

I have been a customer of this takeaway for years and have never had an issue with it. Best chicken curry in Glasgow without a doubt. Delivery is always fast.

Anytime I have ordered from here the food has always been good. Shredded bbq pork chow maine lovely as not everywhere does it properly either give you char Sui pork or it's just in big slices. If I can't decide what to get I get the appetizer 4 bbq ribs(sauce is delish) 4 chicken balls and a big Spring/pancake roll only £6

Honestly can say been trying to get a nice Char sui pork in the East End of Glasgow for ages. Thanks ro The Poa San I've finally found a five star 🌟 takeaway, fantastic meal 😋

Use to love this place but went down hill , full of cheap chicken and more onions than chicken, won’t be bk and only a matter of time till this place is shut not even a restaurant now

Usually love this place. Ordered last nt and curry was rotten and so was the ribs I don't think this is he usual chef as nothing like it normally Is

Food very nice and also friendly staff prices are also reasonable

I got chicken noddle soup, it was very tasty and staff were very friendly.

Excellent food will buy again.

I would’ve gave no rating if I could’ve shocking telephone manner NEDS R US the new name should be at first thought she was having a laugh only to be spoken to like a wee boy back at school will never order from here again and would recommend everyone not to either unless you can talk her lingo

We live in Australia now, but visited the Poa San over 40yrs ago. We went 2-3 nights every week we loved it that much. Their food was always delicious and staff knew us well back then. Planning to visit Glasgow (home) again as soon as Covid permits. First stop will be Poa San. 🤣 Thankyou for the good memories.

Curry dish hardly had any curry sauce

No Restaurant .now just a take away and deliveries. Sad to see the Restaurant closing.

This restaurant refuses to deliver to NHS staff because their delivery drivers apparently think they'll catch covid.

Not happy with this place at all! Cheap and nasty rubbish including the rice! Always use other local chinese takeaways where possible. They are miles better! Poa San has also been reported to council for noise complaints from extractor fans irritating local residents all day and night which have been ignored!

Place is a joke food defrosted with hot water, one driver is a total thug and an accident waiting too happen

I will never buy another meal from this restaurant ever again. Thee most bland tasteless curry we have ever had.

Food was delicious many years ago, hope it is still the same.

I loved the Poa San when I was there

Poa San is a favourite place of mine for a choice of dishes eating out or sitting in been around for a while tell a lot about a place

1 of the better Chinese takeaway restaurants in the East end of Glasgow.

I went in here for a chicken curry 🍛, it was delicious 😋. This used to be a restaurant, only does takeaway now , is still highly recommended

Initially came here for a sit in meal and disappointed to see it is now gone and doing takeaway only. Food wasn’t as good and unlikely to be back

Never disappoints. Food is always excellent

Not even a restaurant any more just a takeaway. Quality has gone downhill and I don't go anymore and I only stay 2 minutes away.

Not the same place as it ues 2 be chicking rubber

I just ordered Fried rice curry sauce and portion of chips,,, what came was reheated rice,, brick hard and reheated chips ,, absolutely vile,, wouldn't serve this to a dog!!! Trying to upload a picture of this ! 3 bits,, nearly threw up!! Avoid 😤

Ordered fried rice curry sauce and chips. I got delivered Vile REHEATED food, chips were vile,, rice was hard! 3 bites, I nearly threw up!! AVOID ! Disgusting

Definitely one of the the best Chinese takeaways in the east end. Great tasting curry, prepared quickly with high quality ingredients and sold at a fair price. 5*.

The restaraunt has now gone and it is solely a rake away venue. It is much better for this i think. Well thought out. Grub is great!

I absolutely love this take away have been using it for years now and won't go anywhere else.

Sad to see the old restaurant go. It really was never the same after the woman who ran it for years left.

Good old school Chinese restaurant. If you want fancy modern decor forget it. Good food at reasonable prices. Good service. Would visit again.

Lovely food and great service would definitely go back

Absolutely beautiful every time we come for a family meal

Food amazing can't beat hot and spicy

Always good food. Curry extra hot has a kick to it. Staff fantastic.

Ordered a delivery at 450pm before shop opened and delivery took over an hour and food was freezing cold, rang up to complain and was passed on to a rude scottish women who had no interest,they could do with remembering customers keep you them in a job, will not be ordering again.

It was horrible experience with the worsrt chinese food. If you have prescription for low salt food, this will be hell.

Sit in or take away food is 'lovely and good prices staff friendly as well

Great place the staff are great the food is reasonably priced and delicious

This is a small and friendly restaurant with a menu covering all the traditional meals you’d expect to see. The sit in area initially looks a little dated but to me this is all part of the charm. Friendly staff and good food at good prices are the real selling points. The take away side is run very efficiently. Never been disappointed!

Amazing chicken curry I've ever tasted

Highly recommend this Chinese restaurant very friendly atmosphere

The best resteraunt I have ever visited in the east end, the chicken balls were to die for, I would thoroughly recommend

Best chinky in the East end for a carry out, even better for a sit in meal 👍👌🍜🍻🍾🍸☕

Not great for sitting in and is a middle of the road take away

Best Chinese restaurant in the eastend

Fantastic curry sauce. Me and my girlfriend love this chinese!

Not worth £11 meal deal .. beef satay to watery onions were fresh thats it.

We don't live in this area but visited the Poa San with friends for the first time in many years and glad that we did so. The menu is a bit limited but varied enough to tickle your taste buds. The interior is a bit drab and has a kind on 70's feel to it but I really liked it and it seems to look the same as it was all those years ago when last visited it. Drab it may have looked but the place is clean. Food was good and the service likewise. Can I reasonably ask for more than that?

I ordered my food, chicken chowmain, on Monday night. The food is not bad but whoever on the phone was not very nice. And the next day which was yesterday i have food poisoning. Vomiting and diarrhoea all day. I won't be eating your food again.

Had chicken chowmain on Monday night. Food was ok. Whoever on the phone was not very nice. If you're too busy to be nice to customers, i suggest u close it down. I work in a restaurant too so it's not that hard to give decent customer's service. To make it worse I have food poison from your food yesterday. Vomiting and diarrhoea. Never never eat here again

The best Chinese in Glasgow, it's been here since I was wee, this was a sat night treat with my auntie 30 years ago, and it still tastes the same, lovely, their prawn toast is to die for, would not go to any where else for my curry

Nice Chinese restaurant and takeaway usually quite quick with delivery and reasonable prices

Food so bland chicken burnt order a chicken satey and got 4 bits of chicken and tray full of onions never go back again must have new owners as that not the standerd of food they would put out gd luck to new owners

Not as good as when previous owner had it food standered very low

Nice Chinese food in a small room tables bit close together and slightly over expensive and set menu choice not the best.

Very nice meals and great service.

Ok firstly I have to say this restaurant is unimpressive on first sight. Decor is quite drab and tacky looking. But the service is good staff are very polite. All dishes ordered were delicious though, and very reasonably priced. The sliced breast of chicken curry was one of the best I have tasted anywhere! I highly recommended this wee gem of a restaurant to all either to sit in or to order home delivery you won't regret it.

He estado aquí muchas veces durante el año y vine a mitad de semana para una comida, como de costumbre el lugar estaba vacío pero el servicio fue un poco lento, los menús estaban pegajosos y se sentían sucios y sacaron el plato equivocado así que tuve que esperar un poco más , inusual para el lugar, pero apenas era promedio

Food not as it used to be me and my family in for dinner not so good poor quality on poor service been orering out of hear for years now will never go back

Amazing food for low money. I would recommend it to everyone over and over.

Great value 3 course for under 12 pound decor a bit dated but cozy and staff very nice service great

The curry's taste beautiful and the meat is nice and soft

I come to the Pao San often with my Father or my Best mate on a Sunday after the snooker, whether we sit in or take away the food is always brilliant. The service is always quick and efficient.

Good food made quickly at reasonable prices. I've only used the takeaway but restaurant looks cosy and clean.

Been here a few times in the past couple of years this visit was definitely the Best chicken curry fried rice Scrumptious my husband had sweet n sour loved ot will return service good well done

Visitamos esta noche como una familia de cinco. Servicio Fantástico como siempre. Familiares han sido regulares durante años. A un precio razonable y comida de alta calidad. Se lo recomendaría a todo el mundo. La comida es deliciosa y el tamaño de las porciones son perfectas. El personal es siempre amable y servicial cuando sea necesario. considerablemente Se considera un cierto miembro del personal (michelle) un amigo y es adorado por el bebé de la familia, como ella interactúa con él cada vez que nos visita y así como todos los demás. Su ayuda y la interacción siempre es de agradecer ya que hace que nuestra visita que poco mejor. Gracias a todo el personal por hacer que nuestra visita sea lo más agradable posible!

Used to be a good wee eaterie but they've clearly started cutting costs, the chicken in the curry is almost indelible , cheap, rubbery and very nasty

Visited last week and had the £11.95 menu which I think is on every night. The food was delicious. We had a mixed starter to share which included all the Chinese restaurants staples, chicken balls, ribs and spring rolls. It was all piping hot and cooked to perfection. For main course I had the salt and pepper chicken and my partner had the satay. Again piping hot and very tasty. The restaurant was very quiet the night we were in (Tuesday) but they were doing a roaring trade in takeaways. The Poa San is a Glasgow institution, I don't think the decors been changed from 1967 and it used to have a reputation of a gangster hangout but it adds to the appeal! The staff are friendly and for change out of £30 for 2, you haven't much to complain about.

Great wee place great food when munchied👌

Brilliant takeaway restaurant staff super nice. Even when u call for delivery the staff r so helpful
