Tai-Sing Takeaway in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

We’ve gone to this Chinese and given it so many chances but it’s been so disappointing throughout, food is tasteless and super dry which is such a shame was looking forward to it. Won’t be returning again.

Overall the food was really nice however GUTTED as requested the vegetable rice be made without egg which they said was absolutely fine but when delivered it had loads of egg in so we had to throw away two tubs of rice as we can’t eat eggs so wouldn’t order from here again. Shame because the rest of it was amazing.

Salt and pepper chips To be honest it didn’t smell great and was not much to look at. However the curry sauce was on point saved the day

Close convenient and good service

I should of been suspicious when takeaway was empty and my order came in 5 minutes this was extremely poor quality we couldn’t even eat it , the yeung chow rice was stodgy and had big strips of cheap ham in it and chewy chunks of pork no flavour atall , the beef chow mein was the worst we have eaten tasteless with chewy poor quality beef the type you buy pre cooked from budget shops and the noodles were a tidy as had been over cooked or re heated , the crispy beef should be re named soggy beef from here it was tasteless chewy stodgy beef obviously not freshly fried , the coating had too much cornflour so was like stodgy cake instead of a thin batter , chips were undercooked and anemic and the curry sauce was oily and tasteless I always give an honest review and support local businesses however in this case I cannot it was tasteless poor quality and slapped together the prices do not reflect the low grade quality I would not recommend or use again worst Chinese we have ever purchased really disappointed

lovely food,loads of it ! too much to eat lol...checked out all the Chinese's and glad we picked this one.special fried rice was beautiful as well as the salt and pepper chicken ..very tasty

First time using. We were unsure as reviews weren't great, however we phoned and the lady who answered was so helpful taking our order and helped my daughter find a chicken dish with no nuts; even asking other colleagues for advice. Food was ready on time and was super. Definitely would recommend.

Really bad!! Chose to try this as went to The Orient before…..this is really one of the worst Chinese I’ve had in Newquay. So disappointed as was so looking forward to a Chinese. Beef curry was watery and the rice they use standard American Long Grain rice nothing like normal Chinese rice. Won’t honestly be using this place again. Honestly don’t bother literally try any other Chinese as got to be better than this!!

Excellent food had delivered would highly recommend

Would recommend this place, the food is lovely and hot

After trying all the newquay chinese takeaways we have found this to be the best one. Good value, very tasty and normally very quick (collection, not sure about deliverys) Crispy beef is probably the best I've had :)

My partner and I visited this takeaway, and tbh we were a little bit disappointed by the food. We ordered chicken fried rice, which was dry and flavourless. plain chow mein was again, bland and some chips. They were ok. The people who served and cooked were pleasant, and the food was cooked quickly. Didn't like the fact you can't see the food being cooked either as I could hear someone coughing. We won't be going back there for food anytime soon. But if things were to improve, I'd think about going back.

By far the best Chinese takeaway in newquay

Awesome food. Awesome service. Good communication. Delivered to trevornick camp site.

All the dishes were delicious, we loved the sweet and sour pork a lot. Definitely our go to Chinese take away if we will come Newquay again. Highly recommended

Lovely food!! The Sweet and sour chicken and the honey, barbecue ribs were amazing! Fast delivery, great service. Will definitely be ordering again 😁💜

Fantastic Food! We couldn’t get through on the telephone so drove there to place an order. If you spend over a certain amount you can get an extra main dish for £1 👌 The food was very good and we’d highly recommend.

Very nice and good friendly staff well worth visiting

We have just had the most amazing meal thanks to Tai Sing It won’t be long before we order again Thank you Tai Sing

Don't order from here. Was told 1 hour delivery,still waiting 2 hours later !! Just don't bother !! And stone cold chips !!

Great service and food delicious

For the dishes I like, crispy chilli beef, crispy chilli chicken, Singapore noodles I really enjoy them from hear, the exterior appearance put me off initially, but I’ve used them half a dozen times now and it has been consistently good, is a fair price as well, especially if you have a larger appetite or are ordering for 2 or more as they have a deal of .. spend over £18 get another main for just a £1 (obviously has t and c, but most normal dishes are included) give it go… hopefully the dishes you like are good there to!

Food was good but got order wrong and prices for delivery were ridiculous, was really looking forward to salt & pepper chips but got chicken instead!!!!’

Great food. Highly recommend the duck !!!

Lovely Carmen took our order as per and the food was delicious thank you!

My family has gone here since I was little, love this place

Rang ahead to order a pick up- very good telephone ordering, ready on time and excellent value! Dishes were hot and tasty- Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Newquay :))

Tried to call for over a hour and kept going straight to voicemail.

28-29 quid on 3 meals. King prawn curry with mushrooms. Chicken chow mein and a beef cha sui. 2 x egg fried rice, 8 spring rolls and some prawn crackers. Delivered miles away so thank you for that. Food was of awesome quality. Loved all of it. Great job. Would use again.

Fancied a Chinese while away on holiday and ordered from here. All food arrived piping hot and all tasted very good. Can’t fault anything to be fair. Delivered in under half an hour as well. Would use again. Thanks

Our go to Chinese takeaway. Having tried the others in Newquay, Tai Sing comes out on top. Excellent food, good prices and the service is great. Sometimes hard to get through on the phone to place an order.

My local chinese takeout for many years, all good stuff!

Tues night when most Chinese restaurants in Newquay are closed, Easter hols and Champions League game on, I called and though obviously busy, we got great service and food They cooked me a dish that wasn’t on the menu, gave us an extra main for £1 and delivered within the hour. All good dishes and arrived hot, very happy. Will use again.

This used to be my usual venue for a Chinese, I have always enjoyed the meals, But, now that telephone ordering is preferred, the line is always busy and the wait can be quite lengthy . I always used to go into the shop to order but now this isn't an option (you have to stand outside) I've not bothered and will go elsewhere where you are welcomed inside. With all COVID restrictions virtually at an end and every shop getting back to normal it's about time Tai Sing reverted to their original system and actually allowed customers inside. By all means ask customers to wear a mask. Unfortunately I won't return until this is the case.

After arriving 20 minutes late the food was cold and tasteless. Couldn't be more disappointed, what a total waste of money I wouldn't give it to my dog.

The food was OK, its a pain that you have to ring it through because the phone is always engaged. The price and value for money is great though especially if you take up their offer of 'spend £15 and get a maibdish for £1'

I couldn't remember why i hadn't been here in a while then I got my food, whatever your doing with the chicken, stop it, it tastes false. Dunno if your boiling it then freezing it, it's just tastes so wrong

Great service, great food well priced, over generous portions!!

Decent food, but far too many onions

Brilliant service whenever we order from Tai Sing. Highly recommended. Food is tasty and staff are friendly.

Ordered a takeaway on our last night in Newquay and we weren’t left disappointed! Wait time was about an hour and a half I think, but they were very busy and the delivery driver was very apologetic about it. Food was top notch. Couldn’t fault it at all, all came nice and hot and was very tasty. Recommended, definitely!

Fantastic Chinese takeaway, food super fresh and tasty, service friendly, fast and efficient. A great delivery driver too. Yum

This is the second time ordered a delivery, service ok and delivery guy great! Unfortunately the food is a polar opposite. Both times now meat in sweet and sour balls was so overcooked couldn't chew it, chips are inedible and noodles cold. Sorry but had two chances and won't be giving another...

The food is reasonably priced, and they have friendly delivery drivers however the food is not as good as many of the other Chinese takeaways. Orient is one of the best in Newquay so would avoid Tai Sing as The Orient is two doors up.

Good food very tasty. Small sections though not many starters.

Awful delivery service do not order asked to drop at front door and call and leave never did this instead called repeatedly and then had a go cus I didn’t answer the phone Then drove off with food when I asked for refund was told they will drop off later

Don’t bother trying to order, never ever answer their phone. Says user busy. We live local and this always happens.

I have ordered from this Chinese once before and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food when I collected it. I placed an order at 8 pm tonight after finishing work and was told there would be an hour wait ( no problem for me as I had time to sort things at home out ). The lady taking my phone call for the order of exceptional customer service and it’s complete asset to the business, not only did she stay positive when we tried numerous times to find my very new address, she built very good rapport and we had a great conversation whilst trying to locate my postcode and even when she struggled to hear me because of my broken phone she carried on and was extremely polite. We are looking forward to our meal this evening as we know it is going to be good quality. Would recommend this to anyone. The star rating I have gave is 5* for food ( and I’m fussy with Chinese food ), but I would give 6* if I could for the amazing customer service. Happy new year to you all.

Good selection and spend over £15 and you get to choose another dish for £1

Food was piping hot, cooked fresh. Delicious dishes. I was given the wrong fritter for desert I called them to ask for a replacement and I kid you not the replacement was outside my house less than 10 mins after I called them, again it was piping hot and delicious. Very impressed with how they resolved this issue. New favourite Chinese in Newquay!!

Love this takeaway been here everytime we come to Newquay its got really nice curry never had a bad meal from here and if anyone says the delivery takes time 15 minutes from ordering it to the door

Really love tai sing probably one of the best restaurants in Cornwall. It’s meals are amazing. If you never tried this before then your missing out on something excellent,

Just brought my takeaway home this evening and the bag was literally sopping wet, it was as if they had dowsed my whole order with water! Every chip was raw and hard, and yet sopping with grease and condensation? So disappointed!!

Great takeaway chop souy was epic

Absolutely delicious piping hot and quicker than they said, highly recommended will definitely be ordering again friendly delivery driver as well

Great little Chinese, l'm in the trade, and sure it's not going to be as good at the busiest type of the year, but generally very good, sometimes people don't think about things like that before writing reviews..

Great customer service and quick delivery and so much food. Lovely

Been going there for 12 years great takeaway best Chinese in Newquay period!

Great food at a decent price, delivery available, lovely staff. One of my favourite places in Newquay!

Very authentic and delivered to our holiday location...A cold wet night in Crantock really improved by takeaway and delivered in great time,tasty and warm

No complaints, served quickly. Food was good value

Great food fast delivery and lovely staff

Would avoid this Chinese! Food was tasteless, chewy and most of what we ordered uneadible! Ended up feeding it to seagulls and going elsewhere to get food! AWFUL!! (Would give it 0 stars ... but that’s not an option!)

Used Tai Sing tonight after many recommendations and was not disappointed at all. Sweet and sour was crispy and full of flavour. Crispy Chilli beef was melt in the mouth and not at all chewy. Great sauce too. Staff were helpful and very friendly and the service was very quick and good fresh and hot. I will certainly pass on my praises.

I'll grant its not as nice as in the nineties but still the best most consistent take away in newquay.

Love the food good prices,good service+a dish for a £1.00 if you spend a certain amount.

I've never had a bad meal from here, and the staff are all always polite. My only complaint is that they are often very had to get hold of to place an order. If you trying calling anywhere near a conventional meal time, the phone is often engaged for ages, then occasionally it will ring, only to not be answered, and instantly goes back to being engaged the next time you ring.

Liked the food from here and not too expensive

My go to for Chinese in Newquay. Always get great customer service, the food is absolutely delicious and they have a great variety to choose from. Pick up or delivery is available.

First time order and was really fast good service and food was really nice not much for the chips but it was really good quantity’s

Lovely food and fast service i use here for a take away

Lovely food, friendly staff, and competitive prices, a real treat for the taste buds.

Takeaway on first night of hols. Very polite service on phone, excellent quality food and very quick delivery. Delivery driver was extremely pleasant and friendly. Would recommend to anyone.

Love it! Good food and it's fresh.

We find the tai sing is the best Chinese in town! After moving to wadebridge we still go to the tai sing when we fancy a Chinese because no where else around is nearly as good. Definitely worth the drive. Chicken balls, spring rolls, special fried rice and crispy beef are always spot on and consistently good.

My last review was mediocre.. Not had a takeaway since then. Happy to say this is the tai sing i remember. The special fried rice is the best from any Chinese in town by far. Crispy beef spot on. Nice to see friendly staff. Keep it up

Fast, friendly,excellent tasty authentic hot food what more can you ask?

The worst food I have unpleasur to eat , please don’t try , I don't know but that place can manager how to do bad veggie spring rolls , and the rest of the food is the worst ever.

Had the special A menu. The fried rice was adequate, but all else was dry or oily, or swimming in watery mass produced sweet and sour sauce ....having had real Chinese in China, Hong Kong, Malaysia these dishes were typical of business presenting something without actually being trained in the cuisine.....too much emphasis on battered fried without any thought to taste.....polite staff, and price was ok, just a pity we could not eat it...never again. These people need some cookery lessons

We have been getting take aways, from there, for many years. unfortunately, it has not been as good for the last year. I don't know if the chef has changed but the sauces are watery and tasteless.

A great little Chinese Takeaway that is quick and delivers great food. Each dish has exceeded my expectations and I often have a banter with the great staff.

Came to Newquay on holiday and decided we fancied Chinese lets just say we had Chinese twice that week lol it really is absolutely beautiful and the best priced chinese i have ever orderd from ... thankyou we will 100% be visiting you again

This is the best chinese I have ever had, throughout Cornwall and Devon. Have used Tai Sing for over 20 years now. Everything cooked to perfection and tastes delicious every time. You get big portion sizes and great value for money. So affordable. Staff are also lovely, happy, very polite. My favourite food in Newquay

30 Plus years I have loved eating from this Chinese .And we ate one of the best from there yesterday. Their sweet and sour sauce is perfect and I have never tasted one as nice from anywhere in the world.

Very friendly staff fast service and amazing food especially the salt and pepper chicken pieces. Highly recommended to anyone who wants a great take away Chinese.

Aweful takeaway ever !! Food was ready in 5 mins. No taste whatsoever and no seasoning !! The food was plain and tasteless !! Nxt morning me and my friends had bad tummy !! Plz people dont waste your money !!

Best Chinese in Newquay. Fast, fresh, good portion size at great value.

Awful Chinese. Food was ready in 5 mins. In most other Chinese restaurants our order takes at least 15. Used this chinese as our normal one closed. Greasy and no flavour. One dish was completely different to what we ordered. Asked for crispy chicken... got sweet n sour!!! Will not use again. Terrible

Been using this place for nearly 30 years and would always recommend it. And when you spend £15 you get an extra dish for £1

Shocking all spring rolls was cold and flat as a pancake. Tiny amount of veg in them! And all chow main meals was like water and tasteless Chips was also cold Will never get from these again!!!! Donte waste your money

Small, clean, take away only. Usual menu. Quick ser ice. Parking available outside. Average prices. Good standard of food. Never had a bad meal.

Tried the food here again, it's been a while and now I remember why. It's so bad. The food is just wrong. I used to love it when I was a kid here but not anymore. I would definitely go elsewhere.

i would highly not recommend this restaurant, the meal i have just received was absolutely appauling.

We ordered a sizeable meal for delivery and were told that it would be an hour and a half, which we said that we were fine with. I phoned up after 2 hours chasing it up and were assured it was literally on our doorstep...2 hours 20 mins, still nothing!! I phoned again and spoke to a lovely girl only to hear the 'manager' in the background tell her and tell me to 'f*^k off' and that he wasn't willing to speak to me and then he hung up the phone! I'm not only disgusted in how he spoke to me, but even worse how he spoke to his staff member!!!

Our favourite takeaway in Newquay fast friendly service even with awkward customers looking keen us. The food is always fresh hot and very tasty.

Very hit and miss had good and bad meals from here. All depends on what you order. Keep coming back though. Had a great chicken curry one time and the next it was terrible. Amazed at how quick your order takes. I,m sure its pre cooked and re heated.

Vine aquí la última noche y pedimos carne, chip chow principal salsa curry y.

Excellent little gem of a takeaway Chinese. Very busy but top quality food.

We ordered chicken curry, chicken chow mein and chips. The curry was a luminous green colour and the chow mein, unrecognisable as chow mein, was foul tasting and all dinged in the microwave, completely inedible but at least the seagulls got a good feed.

I hate to give bad reviews but the 2 x dishes my wife and I had from this Chinese takeaway was tasteless and it was supposed to be a spicy chicken dish with additional seasoning. To be honest I think they rushed it and forgot to season it and unfortunately most of it ended up in the bin. Hopefully this is a one off, but I wouldn't go there again if I'm in the area!!
