Shanghai Chef in Swansea

The sides were great (ordered chicken balls) but the mains were pretty bad. The kung pao chicken was pretty much just chilli sauce over some very uncooked onions and peppers. The egg fried rice was cold when it arrived and tasted of just plain microwaved basmati rice you’d find in Tesco.

The food was walked away and the curry wasn’t very nice. The only thing that was nice isn’t it? Was the chips and after that I don’t think I’ll eat you again.

Food was lovely and hot. Thank You

Delivery time was chnaged at the last minute. Dishes werent as tasty as otgers we have had. Will not ordering from here again

I always order from here, tried different dishes this evening and they were absolutely stunning, food arrived piping hot, the flavours and quality were so good, you’ve never disappointed!

I’ve ordered from here a good few times and they’ve been really good on uber. This time the noodles and rice were hard and chicken balls are pink inside. Really disappointed.

Always have lovely food here wudnt go anywhere else

super fast delivery and best food quality

Your delivery driver was very rude, called me and was asked me if I was going to come down for me food or not I was confused then when I did get to the door he handed me the food and just walked off.

I want to give minus stars as they failed to deliver the takeaway. It was paid for, checked a number of times and told it was on its way. It never arrived. Have refused a refund and after phoning a number of times they refuse to speak to us. Just a big scam outfit.

Delivered to the wrong address after an hour waiting and wanted another hour to deliver again. Unacceptable.

Chips - dreadful. Curry sauce - dreadful. Chicken balls - decent. S&S sauce - decent. Wouldn’t order again.

It was a little late but well.worth it..smoked chicken was amazing. crispy beef was bang on. and the chow maen.was.perfet. highly recommended x

I placed my order with an estimated delivery time of 7:50pm, after this time had passed I reached out on the app and was advised that my order would be delivered by 8:25pm, again this time had passed. At 8:30 I called the restaurant for an update, which they advised my order was out for delivery. My order was delivered at 8:50pm an hour over the expected delivery time without an apology.

Great vibe from the guy on the desk and without a doubt the best salt and chilli king prawns in the city .

very fast delivery, well impressed. the app said i still had 53 mins left to wait. food was so tasty, I ate the lot.

not the greatest tbh. pancake roll had the distinctive taste of gone off food

Tried for the first time as a few people have recommended it and food was stunning and huge portions. Will definitely order again! Thanks.

really dissatisfied this time.usually lovely but not up to standard

Ordered tofu and got squid. Vegetarian but tinto this and tasted fishy. Not good. Never coming back.

Amazing food definitely be coming back

Stunning food, would definately order again

Great food as usual, this has been the only place I use for a chinese takeaway for about 12 months.

lovely food, and the delivery fantastic always early.

Pedí CHOCK IN PEKING SAUCE, y esto es lo que recibí. Como no hay chuletas de cerdo como rodajas de cerdo en un montón de cebollas unas cuantas cebollas de primavera n 1 o 2 zanahorias como se supone que no hay cebollas o cualquier otra cosa, solo las chuletas de cerdo en la salsa de peking. Y dijeron que la orden era correcta. Así que supongo que el cliente en sus ojos siempre se equivoca como solo quería el dinero. Y no se molestó en hacer el pedido correcto, como no será pedir desde este lugar de nuevo, ya que la actitud cuando llamé y me quejé de que se equivocaron de orden era repugnante.

Absolutely disgusted with this place as made up the wrong food stuff. And say I am wrong it's what I ordered. As pork chop in peking sauce looks nothing like what they sent and supposed to be no onions or any other veg just the pork chops n sauce. As 100% would not purchase anything from here again.

Ordered food at 7pm on uber eats. Stated the arrival time would be 8 to 820pm. Rang at 845pm to check and was told it was leaving for delivery. Still nothing at 905pm. So rang again amd was told it would be 10 minutes. Rang then again at 930 as it still wasn't here and cancelled. To which the answer was "okay bye". Don't waste your time or if you do wish to order what ithers deem terrible food. I'd order at lunch time if you want Chinese for dinner.

Took 2 and a half hours from ordering to it being delivered, then restaurant would not refund any money due to bad weather delaying order. Terrible service and will not be ordering from here again.

The food was ordered at 7.04pm. A delivery time of 8.25 - 8.45 was given (which was significant but probably due to it being valentines day). The food actually arrived cold and around 9.40.pm

Really tasty high quality food, ive never been let down from an order here, very happy

Food was nice. The order was just so late and took so long to arrive. The original delivery time was already long, and then on top it was then late. Not sure what the problem was. When the phone line started working the gentleman I spoke to was apologetic.

Good food, not much to say but thoroughly enjoyed it

always have food from this place as it's so 👍 nice

Amazing food everytime worth every penny.

Delicious! It was a rare treat in these straightened times that was worth every penny. There is a lovely wide choice of dishes, so there should be something for every taste. It is easily the best oriental food in Swansea. Well worth saving up for.

lovely food as usual, friendly delivery driver. Thankyou.

Absolutely delicious, food was fresh and the ribs were gigantic

1st time trying, nothing bad, just and not for me

Incredibly tasty food, we will definitely order from here again :)

Wow, amazing food! Good portions sizes, we had it delivered, very tasty

Nowhere near the usual quality

Next time I need to ask the restaurant to remove prawns from rice as I'm allergic - otherwise we loved it! Thank you do much :)

long wait but very tasty food 😋

all items ordered were correct , fast delivery, polite delivery man.

We were kept informed about the delay and when the food arrived it was certainly worth waiting for. Will definitely order from here again

Really enjoyed, lovely food but a little expensive.

The worst meal I've had from this place. Most of it was inedible and ended up in the bin. The onions were stale and tough. The chips were hard, and tasted as though they had been warmed up from yesterday. I'll never use this take away again. My cat wouldn't even touch the chicken in the chow mein, which was swimming in grease. A total waste of my money.

lovely tasty food, fast delivery.

Excellent!! Will definitely be ordering from here again

Very nice food and delivered on time. Would highly recommend and have ordered from Shanghai a few times and never been disappointed

Fantastic as always! Would never order from anywhere else xx

Oh it was vile. The curry was the worst we have ever had

Ordered a delivery on New Year’s Eve and never turned up It looks like they left a lot of people disappointed

delicious food and so filling we really enjoyed

Arrived nearly 4 hours after order was placed. Rang several times but the phone was disconnected.

the food was cold and chips looked cooked 3 times and cold

not received, no communication, and can't even phone, goes to voicemail. so annoyed used these many times and to have no response is disappointing.

food never arrived and it say's on the app enjoy your food???

Don’t bother ordering they will not turn up They take your money quick enough but will not answer phone either Should not be aloud to trade Please don’t waste your time

Order never arrived! Still says out for delivery even though they are closed!

Delicious food, amazing portions, and we were given free spring rolls which was a nice surprise :))

Food still hasnt arrived, over 40 phone calls to the restaurant and no answer!! Quick enough taking over £100 order but cant answer the phone. Cant comment on the food as its still not here!!

I understand it was a busy evening, had I been told the delivery time was much later I would never have ordered, I would prefer to informed if a realistic time and make a choice before placing an order… will never order from here again

Family arrived early as were given a delivery time of 19:15. Constantly trying to contact the restaurant to no avail and h food arrived at 21:10

4 hour wait on food had to go pick it up from restaurant instead

It was marked as delivered, but it never arrived. Phone number for the restaurant is turned off so I can’t call them.

Says it’s delivered but had nothing!!!

ordered food 7:28pm 31 December 2024 but never recieved my order said it was delivered but it wasn't

Don’t order from here food will not turn up and restaurant will not answer it has spoilt the night now should not be aloud they take your money and don’t turn up please please don’t order from here you will be wasting your time

Food ordered at 6;45 pm, i am writing this at 21:57, food has not arrived, have been told it has been delivered at 20:15. Substantial order lost to the wind. Restaurant has disconnected phone lines and full voice mail so unable to contact to find out

I never received my order. very disappointed.

Order hasn’t arrived and no answer from the restaurant but says delivered on the app

Never turned up after 3 hours of promises from just eat and the restaurant.

Food was hot and tasty, really enjoyed

Amazing hot food delivered before scheduled time.

Really nice food and all special request listen too

Fantastic as always! Hot and Tasty!

Called the shop kept telling me 20 minutes for over hour and half still hasn’t come

Food freezing cold, spent £25 offered me a £3.50 refund, absolutely pathetic

Delivery was early. Curry wasn’t great. The chicken was like rubber. So chewy

fabulous tasty food, highly recommend,will be using again .

always nice food from this curry house

Great food and service as usual.

2 hrs wait for cold and tasteless food

Lovely food, definitely recommend and the delivery man was super friendly and polite

Tried a delivery from these guys for the first time today. We were very impressed. The food was delicious and the prices were very reasonable. We will certainly be ordering from them again.

Best Chinese in Swansea. Their Singapore chow mien is amazing.

Food was very late, however when it arrived it all tasted lovely.

lovely Chinese .. best in town! glad you have decided to start back delivering to grovesend ! yummy !

Not the nicest food we’ve had. No taste, dry & stale

great food. everything is always fresh and well seasoned. I highly recommend it

lovely food as always and followed the instructions I left thank you. brilliant delivery time

I am absolutely appalled by the way the service was tonight with Shanghai Chef. I've always used this Chinese for numerous years however I made an order at 9pm via their website. I waited up until 10.15pm still nothing,phoned the restaurant for them to tell me he's on the way. Then at 10.30pm still no sign so I phoned them back for them to contemplate if I made the order on just eat or uber. I told them no it was on your website,for them to turn around and say " oh I'll phone the chef now" huh don't make sense. All for the phone to be put down,so obviously I called back for them to say sorry we will get it sent out now!! When it did arrive at 11.05 not forgetting they close at 10pm when the delivery driver came finally I said to him they close at 10 he said no 10.30 so why does the time online say 10pm?? Also here is a pic of one of the dishes which was obviously made quickly as it's al dentè and full of bloody onions. Not happy at all!!

No sauce on the ribs. It had spilled out of the tray, presumably during delivery, therefore I had dry ribs! Very disappointed.

Very nice will order from here again thank you

First time I have ever picked a delivery time, delivery was late by 30 minutes, had to warm up in the microwave before eating. Bit disappointing as I have always had a great service.

excellent food, highly recommend

1hr later than original time given.

the food has made me change my chinese takeaway I'll definitely be coming back. FABULOUS FOOD thanks guys we loved it

Excellent food - great service.
