Rising Sun in Charnwood - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I skated from barrow to cone to this place the chips and rice are really nice

Ordered food for delivery after enjoying a takeaway a week ago. The person I spoke to was friendly and helpful, hence two stars. Ordered at 5:05 PM, food came to Barrow at 5:20 PM and was not nice at all, unfortunately. Obviously not freshly cooked! Inedible ... rice tasted strange, chicken was chewy and the noodles were greasy. We had to throw it away and won't be ordering from there again. Didappointing.

Great improvements to cleanliness of the takeaway, and a much better food hygiene score of 4. Very tasty food

Terrible food. Barely warm, very salty. Chips were clearly reheated from yesterday. Only saving grace was delivered 5 mins early by a very friendly driver. Would not recommend

Called before and they made every gluten free accommodation we needed. Fantastic Chinese food and gluten free when asked for it!! Lovely people and great food, thank you for that we never get a gluten free Chinese meal together

The best crunchiest chicken balls to dip my my best chicken noodle soup I have ever tasted in my life Steve p 42 glebe close Ps wooow

The absolute best crunchiest chicken balls , chicken omelette, chicken curry I have ever tasted in my 42 years on this planet

great food ! very happy ! wouldn’t hesitate to recommend 👌🏼💯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Food is always excellent and very reasonably priced. Delivery is fast and reliable.

Very aggressive and rude delivery driver. Shouted at me on the phone. I adked him 3x where he was, but he wouldn’t tell me. Had to call the restaurant. When he did arrive, he told me i was in the wrong place, as if I don’t know my own postcode!! Will not use again.

Was super early, super hot and super tasty! Will definitely be ordering again, lovely food 😊

The food was nice, needs to stop adding peas in with the omelet as it ruins the taste, they state that rice is in large containers yet they are definitely not.

great food, very quick under new management top man, lot better now 21/06/2023

Chips where cold and looked like been cooked over and over again , curry was like slush overall not good we were very disappointed

I don't know what's changed but this meal was top quality. Plenty of it.

Our food an hour late called restaurant she said she had no idea where the driver is

Fantastic service and beautiful tasting meal once again Well done all at Rising Sun 👍👍👍

Charge £2.50 for delivery and then refuse to bring it to the door. Waste of time.

Received king prawn sweat and sour Cantonese instead of CHICKEN. Shell fish allergy.

Everything was freshly cooked, piping hot, never greasy or oily, always happy to order from here!

Excellent service and delicious chicken curry

nice food as per but i paid for bbq and got sweet n sour as well as a free tub, would of been nice having curry sauce lol

Curry was watery and tasteless

Lovely food and good sized portions

Exactly on time. Very tasty. Perfect portion.

Food cold and inedible. Wouldn’t order again,

I would say the chicken balls are nice salt and pepper chips compared to competitors not so great. Also on the chicken balls there should be an option on which sauce because I had to buy another sauce as I didn’t sweet and sour ultimately wasting the other sauce .

Our food took over 2 hours to be delivered, we were not happy whatsoever and especially irritated that I had to keep phoning to find out what the delay was. The restaurant never called me to let me know there was a delay. Really unimpressed.

Can’t fault the quality & service. Top job 😊

We ordered Chicken Szechuan, Special Szechuan, House Chow Mein and King Prawn Fried Rice, all were really tasty, and big portions. We had a bit of a wait, but they were busy. Free prawn crackers.

Food is a 10/10 every time I will never order elsewhere for Chinese.

Enjoyable food and a really pleasant and professional delivery, very Happy 👍🏻

It was lukewarm very salty. Just not nice.

Really nice food no over salty and hot

Very unusual to have a poor experience with this restaurant. However, after an hour delay the food did not live up to expectations either. It was not exactly what we ordered and the cucumber with the duck starter was hard, inedible, and discarded.

Was all cold, forgot the chips on my order. Late, won’t be ordering again

It was late and almost completely cold, prawn crackers were stale from being being sealed in a warm bag too long. Both Rice and Chips tasted like they were reheated from being cooked yesterday. Really disappointed. We usually have such a good meal from here and this was in aid of my partner’s birthday. It was such a shame!

Delicious food once again and friendly delivery driver Well done all at Rising Sun 👍👍👍

Ordered crispy beef in peking sauce, but got ordinary beef instead 🙁 so didn't enjoy as usual, 1st time in 3 years the order was wrong 😑

Excellent meal again Well done all at Rising Sun 👍👍

There is a reason that the Rising Sun is labeled a Local Hero, well there are many reasons if I am honest but here are just a few. My order was delivered early, the food was perfectly hot and boy was it delicious. The Rising Sun is my "go to" for Chinese.

Nice food but couple of items were missing like sweet and sour sauce and seaweed

Always amazing, the best Chinese I won’t go anyway always so accommodating if you want to swap little parts of the dish or add extra flavouring. So so good couldnt reccomend more

Poor quality of food, delivered late. What makes it worse is only half was delivered. Still waiting for the rest 30mins later.

Excellent food, on time. The pork with green pepper and black bean sauce was delicious, and the fried king prawns were the highlight. Portion sizes were decent and the most reasonable prices in the area.

Food was OK but nothing special. Did get free prawn crackers which was nice touch. Probably wouldn't order from here again.

The noodles were burnt and made the whole dish rancid did not enjoy at all

We have always like the Rising Suns food and have been ordering g from they for a few years but, the last order came wrong and I called them to sort it out, I was told it would be another hour for this happen, meaning we had to eat our meal in two parts. Concluding this was a one off, we ordered again this evening. Big mistake! Every item, we believe, was reheated, dry and over all unpleasant. Sadly, we won’t be ordering from here again

11/10 wouldn’t go anywhere else

Didn’t get our crispy seaweed for the third time with the appetisers. Gutted.

Food was lovely, only problem is we didn’t get what we ordered! Didn’t bother telling the restaurant and just ate what we had. Happens a lot here. 😡

Beautiful food. Super timing. Hot, tasty food.

Food arrived luke warm at best in plastic containers, food tasted wierd- horrible aftertaste, so it all went in the bin. Small portions too. New ownership? After many lovely meals from here, won’t be ordering again.

I’ve left the delivery stars as that’s all that lets the experience down! Delivery on time, but by a chap that has a front door phobia! Food is gorgeous.

Good quality food delivered fast and hot and delicious

Horrible. Bad adter taste, only just warm, chow mein not a full tub, no seaweed...could go on! Will not use again

Delievery was quick however food was really plain the salt and chilli chips and chicken were so bland really wasnt worth it this time . Rice was wierd tasting this time aswell

Exceptional tasting food and delivered with excellence Well done all at Rising Sun 👍👍👍

The food is fantastic as always! No faults. Portion sizes are great and allows my partner and I to have more for lunch the next day. The rising sun is always my go to. Thanks guys!

Just had a great takeaway meal from here tonight it was very tasty and reasonably priced. We will definitely be going back

Each dish was delicious and cooked to perfection. Hot and fresh x

The seaweed was missed and the special balls were all chicken. The food was on time, hot and tasty, but we missed the prawn balls and seaweed.

Excellent food, very tasty! Super fast delivery. You have a new customer. Thankyou!

Since what appears to be a change of ownership or chef, the rising sun has gone downhill. The dishes seem to be smaller than before and the taste seems to have been lost. This is the third time I have had a Rising Sun since the change and it will be the last. Dishes were tasteless, salt and pepper chips resembled cardboard with no proper crisp or flavour and the amount of meat/fish seems to have decreased per portion. All in all, I am very dissatisfied and will be going else where in the future.

Wanted to try something new and I'm so happy I did this is my new favourite Chinese everything was perfect and good portion sizes 😍😍😍😍

Great tasting food yet again 👍👍👍👍 Well done all at Rising Sun

Food arrived cold and took nearly 2 hours in total with no communication from restaurant

Great quality, really enjoyable

Arrived a full 30 minutes early, and was promptly inhaled by the brood. It was lovely.

My fave takeaway. Busy night tonight

Never disappointing, always great food and service!

Food delivered cold, and quality/taste not to the usual standard

always great food and delivery never had a bad order from this takeaway

Very polite driver. Excellent service all round.

Crispy, tasty, hot, delivered for ASAP got it in half an hour.

The wrong order was delivered then after many calls to the restaurant the order arrived well over an hour late

The food was cold and over cooked. The prawn toast tasted off.

Amazing as always and delivered quicker than expected. We’ve never had a bad meal from this take away

This is by far one of the worst Chinese i’ve ever had. It tasted like all the food had been cooked in fish oil? everything just tasted strongly of fish, the chips had been reheated they was very dry, i asked for my house special fried rice dry and it come drenched in what i could only think to be fish oil. Will never order again from here

The wrong order received chilly chips instead of chicken

Great service and delicious food. The best Chinese in this area

Excellent food excellent delivery

Food arrived, sadly wasn't great and got order wrong

Needed to review the Rising Sun can not fault the food delicious. Also great delivery service always quick and on time. Delivery team always have a smile on their face . I always use the Rising Sun's app to order food no problems at all.

Always a 10/10 experience from rising sun! Thejr amazing customer service and delicious food is the reason they’ll be my favourite Chinese ever!

Great. Everything was just as you’d like.

Food delivered within timeframe, king prawns in sweet chilli were superb and chicken dish was succulent. Will defo use again

Food was great, service was great and early which is normal. Driver was friendly. Would definitely recommend

Best Chinese, amazing wan tuns!

We have used this takeaway for years. They are always early with deliveries. The food is fresh and hot. Similar local takeaways are overpriced and the food is not always delivered on time. The Rising Sun is the best Chinese takeaway locally.

Wasn’t just late it was late late

As always, an amazing meal! Thankyou

Really good food and really friendly service

I use this restaurant a lot and normally things are good but this time. Food took over an hour to arrive, was barely warm, liquid leaked in the bag covering the chips and had a dish missing. Called the restaurant and they bought the missing dish out but 15 mins after we’d already eaten the ‘warm’ food. Not a great experience today I’m afraid.

The best Chinese ever!!! Cannot fault them

Lovely food but every delivery is late by a minimum of 30 min and we always order 2 hours in advance if not more - poor time management - tonight 55 min later than the order arrival time

Partner and I have tried all the Chinese takeaways and this is the best out of those in Mountsorrel. Best for price for taste and quantity. We’ve never had a bad experience from them and would recommend.

Waited 2 hours, food arrived cold. Driver slung the bag over his shoulder with no thought about the food i had paid for. Never again, awful just awful.

The best Chinese meal in rasent past
