Dreadful place for vegetarians- avoid it! They only have vegetables in obscure sauce for vegetarians. We waited 75 minutes for our main, 45 for starters. Slow and disinterested staff. They obviously focus on the takeaways and not on those eating in. Had to ask for cutlery and napkins despite the huge wait for our food to come. The staff were more interested in cleaning up a neighbouring table than taking our order- we had to ask if we could order. The Restaurant was not busy so it's not due to that. The food is beyond bland and was lukewarm. Egg fried rice - couldn't see any egg and it was bright yellow like a pilau rice but no flavour all. Noodles were disgusting. The only authentic taste was the coca cola. I will never waste my money here again.

Food was OK for the price. I thought it cost more than it should have. We sat in for the meal. The kitchen was very slow. The takeaway downstairs didn't seem overly busy so I don't know why we had to wait nearly 40 minutes for the Food to come out that seemed like it had been left sitting for a short time as it wasn't what you would call hot of the pan and the noodles were dry and again just warm. But for 2 adults and 2 kids. £60. I won't be returning. Maybe I'm just fussy. I don't mind paying for good food. If left satisfied I wouldn't of wrote this.

Even after all these years, it’s still hard to beat The Riverside Chinese Restaurant Omagh. Their dishes never disappoint & the quality of produces are always of such high quality & standards. Just so amazing how Peter & All His Staff are able to keep such high standards, year on year. Thanks so much Peter keep doing what you are all doing, & have been for so many years.

Just brought home a sweet and sour chicken Cantonese with fried rice. Totally inedible! Whatever was in the balls, it was like rubber, the batter was half raw and it tasted awful. I've never had anything as bad in my life. Only I live too far out of town I would have taken the whole thing back. Now sitting here with no dinner, not what you want after a hard day'swork. Not the first time I've had a bad meal from here, but it certainly is the last. Too many other good Chinese takeaway in Omagh to waste money on this. Avoid at all costs.

On route to Omagh, I searched sat nav for restaurants. Selecting here I was not disappointed. Parking at the front of the building is restricted however a huge open car park at the back. Surprised that on a Monday evening it was open the owner mentioned that they are open 7 days a week. Order was taken and food arrived very quickly and as requested. Have to say it was tasty and hot. Would call again if in the area.

The banquet dinner for two was overcooked and tastless. The platter of starters were and deep fried greasy and rock hard. The soup was OK but we had to wait quite a while for it to arrive. The schezhuan vegetables were gloomy with no taste of schezhuan! Save your money and don't go.

I visit when in the area. Never had bad food here. If busy yes there can be serving hiccups. Boss man is typical Chinese and not cheeky as some say. It is just his way. My fav starter is prawn cocktail. Cold and refreshing and good portion Love it. For mains I usually have sizzling Cantonese prawns or beef. Really nice sauce and the fried rice is light and non greasy. After an Irish coffee goes down well. Staff are generally helpful and place is clean. Prices are a lot lower than elsewhere for good food. I fully recommend it and I eat all over Northern Ireland. Try it.

Back again 2, months later. If I'm in the area I go out of my way to eat here. Monday night meal, so very quiet. Had prawn cocktail starter. Was even better than before. Lots of prawns and salad and nice and chilled. For mains I got sizzling king prawns in Cantonese style and fried rice Absolutely beautiful again. Plenty of prawns and veg and lovely light rice. I finished off with an Irish coffee. It was great. Because it was quiet I had a personal waitress who made the coffee and was super attentive. I had two small ciders to wash down At £31.00 it was fair for all. And I will be back and recommended to it wholeheartedly.

Horrible experience. Extremely rude staff. Found hair in food, reported it to the owner because table service was practically non-existent. Owner became aggressive and refused to do anything. Shouting at female customer in front of other customers is a bad look. Absolutely disgusted at the poor and intimidating behaviour. I have never been spoken to like this before.

Back again for a flying visit to Omagh and had a look in at the other Chinese sit on but was not impressed with their menu and prices. So back here to my favourite. Let me explain my experience of Chinese owners is off efficiency and speed. People here think it is rude or arrogant but it is just their way and no harm or offence made. Now I thought I would get something different this time but again I stuck to my favourite starter and main. I ordered a small cider and it came quickly, but the second order of same never came. So I decided against it anyway. My prawn cocktail starter came in a bowl full of ingredients. The lettuce is wet and leaves moisture in bowl. But the prawns, lemon, cucumber, tomato in a Marie rose sauce are so good and I drank the liquid which was nice. This time again I ordered a sizzling dish but with sea food this time. It had king prawns, mussels and I think squid and something else I could not name. Carrot, onion, peppers in a beautiful Cantonese sauce sizzling on hot skillet. The fried rice is light and delicate and seems to have a nice yellow colouring and is non greasy. Delicious. A coffee with cream was my final dish. Food is tasty and plentiful. At £23.50 it was an extreme bargain. I overlooked a few small problems, like no napkins forgetting second drink, etc. But for value, flavour and selection I gave it five.

The stairs are a challenge for me with bad knees. The Chinese owners are abrupt and can be taken as cheeky but that is their trait. They made a fuss of getting phone contact details with my two friends. The two staff upstairs, one a young local girl and the other a painted older lady were terrible. First off I said I wanted my bill separate. They maid such a fuss and told us they do not do that. Then they came back and asked us to count our bill separate. I ordered first as I knew that I wanted prawn cocktail and a sizzling beef Cantonese style. The older lady had not a clue and I told her what veg I wanted in the sauce. Which came missing some. My friends were undecided what to order and as I was advising them the older lady kept butting in and giving inaccurate advice. Eventually I said just cook and bring mine first. Forty minutes later no food and we complained two times. They blamed the separate bill as the reason saying it was put down as two different tables. I asked how that would slow cooking. The young girl came with another jumbled non sensical excuse. Then the painted lady came bumping into the chair with obviously bad eye sight and said it was all her fault. My prawn cocktail came only and was large and fine but the other starters were ten minutes later after more complaints. The bbq ribs were large without garnish despite the lady saying they are only small. Chicken noodle soup was extra watery. My sizzling beef was not as sizzling as usual and lacked mushroom which I asked for but it was tasty. Ten minutes later my friends chicken Mary land and duck curry arrived. They both seemed good.The portion sizes were good. When we went to pay the bills were separate after all the fuss and quite reasonable. Pity about the staff but we will go back soon.

First time in Ireland, came across this Restaurant and ordered a takeaway. I ordered a Singapore noodles, wonton soup, boiled rice and beef and black bean sauce. Wonton soup was refreshing, you can taste the prawns with a bouncy/crunch in every bite. Singapore noodles were very tasty, plenty of spice with nice flavour. The beef was lovely and soft cooked perfectly with enough chilli, fragrant black bean aroma. The boiled rice was also cooked perfectly, individual grains of rice just enough stickiness and pleasant rice aroma. Highly recommended this restaurant, it is definitely not your average chinese takeaway, price of meal is reflected in the quality. Would happily return for another meal.

Tender and delicious.Nice spicy peppery kick of sauce. Yellow rice good. Milky coffee at £1.60,if I can attract waitress as it is getting busy.A full pot arrived. So full up and sweating now,but enjoyable experience overall. Excellent staff. Overall bill with glass of wine £21.90. Good for 3 courses.

All during the Covid LockDown we’ve been using the Riverside Take Away , and it’s been superb . They took appropriate precautions and the service on the phone and at the pick up point was always fast, friendly and efficient. The food we found was delicious and will rival anything to be had in London’s ChinaTown. Ok ... it wouldn’t be the same as you get in the Jumbo Kingdom Floating Restaurant in Hong Kong .... but it’s adapted to the local palate ( ie chips with everything ) and local wallet . It’s our “ GO TO “ for Chinese Take Away . Well done Riverside .

Loved the takeaway of this place so fancied a meal so went down for a sit in. Got inside and was greeted with a takeaway menu. Fair enough I thought and ordered away. Food was a bit meh and the chicken was comically rubbery. Went downstairs after the meal to be greeted with a bill £10 over what the menu said. Shoulda only been £25ish. Only after did I enjoy a third of a meal and was ready to leave did the restaurant want to alert me that the prices on the 'current' menu were not the actual prices and we'd been charged restaurant prices. Ended up walking away, leaving £25 cash on the table and a very shouty owner screaming 'I know who you are!!!'

Had the most unpleasant experience in this restaurant. Went to get some food with my girlfriend, brother and his wife we were given great service by the waitress at first who we ordered our food and drinks with. Midway during the wait for our food. A man who seemed to be the owner started shouting and giving off at the very waitress who served us our drinks in front of us and other customers, who didn't look too pleased about it. The girl started crying and he still kept questioning her. It probably lasted about 5 minutes. We could not stand his shouts anymore so decided to leave telling him we will not be eating in a place where workers are treated like that. He said 'ok , you can go , but pay for your drinks ' and followed us to the till to make sure we paid. Where we had no intention in not paid. Finally I also found out that the workers are on 5.50 ph cash in hand and the wee girl definitely did not deserve taking all this for that money. Will defeniatley not be going back! It seems like a workers camp not a restaurant.

I don't usually leave 1 star reviews , but when you cant even cook chips properly you should maybe rethink about your occupation ,,, your salted chilli chicken was hard to eat overcooked and dry , The cheese and chicken rolls has onions in them to ,before i ordered them i asked and was told no onions was put in them , Be careful ordering from here if you have an allergy because the staff does'nt know what is in the dishes , If you want a good takeaway try ruby palace ,pity they were closed today ffs :)

My first impressions of the Riverside Chinese restaurant in Omagh weren't great as it was untidy and disorganised downstairs and had no Chinese character or decor in the upstairs dining area. It was bland and featureless like it's food.After sampling a flat, weak and tasteless Chinese beer I ordered a chicken kung po, and was presented with what looked like slices of chicken cut from a formed roll smothered in large chunks of onion and something like a sweet and sour sauce. I was told that it was definitely a chicken kung po but sometimes they have to make changes to cater for the local tastes and requirements. This was almost harder to swallow than the meal itself! It was taken back to the kitchen and returned with a few slices of chili pepper and hopefully nothing else I didn't know about. By this time I had lost my apatite and there wasn't even an offer to make amends when it came to paying the bill. Never again.

No one likes being conned when you order a meal and something completely different arrives and you're told that at times "we have to change things to accommodate the local requirements". There is a lack of Chinese character and decor which could be overlooked if the food was of a good standard, but when I ordered chicken kung po and was presented with sliced chicken which looked to be cut from a formed roll, smothered with large chunks of onion and something like sweet and sour sauce, then they have to be taking the piss! They did offer to rectify this by taking the dish back to the kitchen and returned it with a few slices of chili on top, and hopefully nothing I didn't know about, but by that time I had lost my apatite. There was no offer to reduce the bill or try to make amends, and I can safely say that I will never be back under the present ownership.

At 9pm on a lacklustre, calm Saturday night I decided it would be worth while for my 7 children(all gamers) and I to reward our selves with a wee ole Chinese so I decided to call Riverside hoping for some Pizza. What I got was nothing of the sort I tell you now. I called and ordered a ham, pineapple and pepperoni pizza and was promptly but surely met with "NAW U CAN F3CKIN NOT" to every request then and hence after, when asked for a diner that would provide me and my family with some decent service and fortnite burgers they simply hung up and that was that!!!

First and will be a once only takeaway. Ordered black bean sauce, watery and no black beans. Noodles bland and fried rice-yellow? no egg. Disappointed

Last night I was deeply disappointed with the customer service & rudeness we received from this restaurant! I placed a takeaway order, ordering the same dish I always ask for. And as we live more than a 10 minute drive away collecting in person was our only option. So you can imagine after spending almost 30mins round trip to collect my food how disappointed I was to discover they had gave me completely the wrong food. I rang the restaurant and explained, I said nothing to the fact I could hear the girl saying in the back ground these people ordered something but now they’ve changed their minds and want us to make up a different dish But after a lot of discussion the girl said oh yes we’ll make up your order again & deliver it too you but don’t open the food you have as we need it back. So we waited, then after 15mins (about 35mins from we collected the food) she rang back and said we decided we have no time & we can’t deliver the food to you now! We then rang back and spoke to the owner but we might just have saved our breath as he was rude & obviously thinks nothing of his customers!! Needless to say after wasting £20 as the food went in the bin, we will never order food from there again, take my advice and if you do check all the items before you leave the restaurant!!

I've tried them all and Riverside is simply the best chinese in the town. The staff are friendly and the food is plentiful and tasty. Delivery can be a little slow but I guess thats down to its popularity which proves it must be good.

The noodles were super noodles, we could see the packets from where we were sitting in the kitchen. Chicken was definitely from cans. Went to the bathroom and feces was smeared over the mirror. Although on a positive note authentic Chinese vibes (foreign staff).
