Had the worst sweet and sour vegetable I've ever had. Rice tasted reheated multiple times too. Would not recommend! Couldn't eat any of it.

For what it was, it took over an hour to arrive. Wrong item sent and it took a few mins for the restaurant to grumpily accept there was an issue. Took ANOTHER hour for the original item to be delivered. And it was only chicken satay on skewers. Crispy seaweed was average at best. Sweet and sour chicken was ok.

I ordered crispy chilli shredded chicken and I was so disappointed by what I received. First of all it was not crispy in the slightest, instead it was soggy in some sauce which was did not taste of anything. The rice was okay but it wasn’t good friend rice. Really let down this time.

I’ve ordered here before and it was decent food, but the waits are always long. Tonight was ridiculous, we waited two hours for it to come and phoned for updates twice. The first time the woman on the phone was relatively nice, told us it was on its way and just to wait a few minutes longer. So we did - another twenty minutes before calling again and this time she was very rude, told us we would get the food when we get it and then abruptly hung up. I’m in my 20s so usually I’m fine to wait a while and I understand service staff have it difficult (I work in hospitality) but I’m really not sure if this was worth the wait and the rudeness.

Ordered here as there was a deal on Uber eats, giving £10 off, so I thought what the hell. But sadly it wasn't even worth that.. The food arrived over 2 hrs after we ordered it, which I could take as it was a Saturday night and with the deal, but I can honestly this was the worst food I have ever eaten. The spring rolls were soggy and cold, the special noodles were dry and tasteless, the fried rice was hard and tasteless as well. With that there was a huge amount of salt, I was up all night drinking water. There are some very good Chinese in Edinburgh(Taste good, Rendezvous) , so Rice is a very close bottom.

Chicken noodle soup was absolutely awful. Really peppery and noodles like mush - horrible. The rest was nice but, even though they do lemon, orange and plum chicken, they didn't specify the lemon was made with sweet and sour sauce with a slice of lemon, not lemon sauce! I'd ordered a tub of sweet and sour sauce, which became surplus because of the lemon chicken! They stuck to the arranged time - I'd pre-ordered before opening hours - but driver didn't wear a mask nor seem to care about distance. I typed this after giving a 3 star rating but, having read it back I'm dropping it to 2. 1 for the main course quality and 1 for time keeping. There were 3 issues, soup, misleading menu and mask. I now only get a takeaway once a year around my birthday and this put me off even more.

fast delivery but once again food was greasy, chips were either half cooked or soggy. containers damaged, driver didnt respect the 'contact free' delivery. instead he humphed when I asked him to place my food on the floor and step back with the money for the order on the windowsill. takeaway didnt even take notice of my delivery note on Just Eat. honestly if it wasnt due to the time of the night I would ordered from my regular Chinese takeaway me and my relatives have ordered from for YEARS! The New Pot, definitely still the best! and by far the fastest when it comes to delivery

We ordered half a crispy duck and spare ribs to share but when it came the pancakes were missing from the order so obviously we couldn’t start our meal. I called and explained and they said they would be with us shortly (We live just along the street) Half an hour later they arrived but the rest of the meal was stone cold. When I called to tell them the lady on the phone simply told me tough, the boss never refunds you or gives you money off. She went to speak to him after I kept on at her and all I could hear was him shouting. I asked to speak to him and was told no and she hung up. Just eat can’t help as we paid cash, so just think before using this payment method. I’ve had ‘not the greatest’ food from them before but persevered as it’s very local. However I won’t be using them again, shocking and disgusting service

We never usually order from here but our favourite Chinese is closed now. I ordered a chow mein but it was basically a box of noodles. There was hardly anything in it. No sauce either, very dry. Chips soggy too. Free prawn crackers. Delivery took nearly an hour but they did say that. Not the best Chinese takeaway. Won't be ordering from here again.

I visited this takeaway as part of my SAS military training. For those interested our training schedule is as follows: Firstly, we are aggresively woken up at 2am by a midget wielding a stick of bamboo, we are then forced to run barefooted across a large room full of miscellaneous Lego pieces whilst being chased by a junkie persistently asking for spare change, then we drink a litre of whisky with milk and finally run 20 miles backwards ending at So Rice takeaway where we must successfully order a meal for two. This is where most people break. Only a handful of hardened war heroes have managed to successfully order food from So Rice,which is all the more impressive because So Rice doesn't even have an oven. Or rice. Not nice. Not So Rice.

Pedí comida para entregar y después de 2 horas de espera simplemente cancelé porque ni siquiera la madre de Norman Bates esperó en la ventana tanto como yo lo hice esa noche. Si desea abrir una tienda de entrega, hay dos cosas que necesita antes de comenzar; un conductor de reparto y una tienda, ninguno de los cuales sospecho que tiene So Rice. Lo único que Rice tiene que hacer es la autenticidad, porque en las raras ocasiones que logré comunicarme por teléfono, la conexión era tan mala que sentí que realmente estaba llamando a China. Quizás es por eso que mi comida no fue entregada después de todo. De cualquier manera, evite este lugar como el coronavirus.

We live near so rice so it’s handy for a quick dinner but the past few times it’s been crap. We usually always get the same thing, last time we got the spicy chicken noodles there was a pool of grease at the bottom of the dish. Our salt and chilli chips were just warm and soggy and hardly any flavour. The Singapore noodles don’t taste like any other Singapore noodles I’ve had and there was a big dollop of paste on top of them which has a sour taste. Sticking to So Good from now on

Ordered a meal with my friend. Satay chicken sticks to start with - the sauce was cold and congealed and a fluroescant yellow colour. It tasted nothing like any other satay sauce I have ordered, maybe because it was so bland. The jelly like sauce also contained chopped up cucumber and pineapple. A first for me in a satay sauce. We then had crispy shredded beef which was chewy and also a bit congealed. The salt and pepper chips were soggy and lacked any crispiness and were cold. The rice was standard and prawn crackers were overly greasy and oily tasting. My digestive system also took a battering after this meal. There are much better Chinese take aways in the local area than this one

The food was absolutely inedible, swimming in grease and oil, wasted so much by throwing it in the bin. They delivered it in 20 minutes which is strange in itself but now we know why they were not busy on a Friday evening! The chips were soggy as if everything had been put into the microwave, will definitely not return to So Rice and encourage everyone to steer clear and go elsewhere!

The reason that I am leaving 1 star for each is because of the fact that 0 stars cannot awarded. I ordered food yesterday at 7:30pm and almost an hour and 20 minutes had passed and my food had still not arrived. I then receive a phone call saying that the delivery driver had tried the door several time and there was no answer but he was downstairs waiting. I go downstairs, wait a couple of minutes to find nobody is there, i return upstairs and decide to call them back as this is getting ridiculous. Once I got through and they answered, I explained the situation and the guy on the end of the phone just kept on repeating “the delivery driver has tried several time and nobody answered” to everything I said, not trying to resolve the issue at all then after ‘speaking to his manager’ it was apparent that my phone had already been delivered and I was lying. I simply wanted to know when my food would arrive as I’ve paid £15 for it to find out that the driver was all over the place doing deliveries and we would get ours stone cold when he was done? I cancelled my order after waiting an hour and a half but I cannot even get my money back until I have finished contacted just eat as I ordered through them

Our food was due to arrive at 20.50, at 21.05 we called for an update. Just so we could have an idea (noisy dog we wanted to distract!) and we were assured that it had already left so it shouldn’t be long and twice they apologised because they had been busy and there was a traffic jam. At 21.30 we called again... to be told that the driver had gone in a different direction. When we expressed concerns that our food would be cold, we were told that the driver had left 10 minutes ago with our food and this time they were 100% sure. When the food did arrive- it was mostly cold, very dry and really one of the poorest takeaways we’ve had in a long time. So much for having a treat- it was a complete waste of money!

Delivery took 1 hour 45 mins and food was cold by the time it arrived at 23.45. We could not eat anything except the 1 portion of fried rice. The BBQ sauce on special fried rice/mushrooms/tub was so salty we could not eat it at all The Banana Fritters looked like they were microwaved as the batter was still White, not golden brown like it was fried We still have the whole lot in the tubs if you want it all back Complete waste of £26.50 Ordered from here a few times but will never order again, not sure if it new folk in kitchen but the whole meal was a disaster

They offer delivery but it takes 90 minutes. When you bring this up with them, they say Just Eat estimates 90 minutes. Most people don't order food 90 minutes ahead of time. If you complain, they tell you to pick it up yourself (I guess they assume everyone owns a car or is do not have additional needs that rely on delivery). Don't waste your time. The staff are rude, and the wait times are ridiculous.
