Tang's in Medway

Lovely meal at tangs with the family , deff recommend, good size portions, food was lovely and hot and very tasty . Will be returning . A ***

We absolutely love Tangs. Have been a fair few times as a couple or as a family group for special occasions. Food is always lovely and fresh and hot. The bbq ribs are a favourite, the peppercorn king prawns are lovely too. We try to add a new dish to try each time too, you can't really go wrong.

The food is lovely and the all you can eat option is great. The drinks came out of a bottle so were a bit flat but otherwise a great establishment!

If you want to re-visit the late 70's/early 80's for some nostalgia then definitely eat here. Zero investment in the premises. Food is sub-standard at best. Service was quick though but your food temperature falls rapidly as the restaurant is freezing cold. Don't dare ask for the heating to be put on as you'll be met with a stern look & a rapid shut down response. 100% would not recommend or re-visit.

Great food. Service can take really long towards the end of the week and weekends. Not much atmosphere, no music and waitresses not very talkative.

Food disappointing. Has gone down in expectations. Forced to order mains with appetiser as kitchen closed at 9.30 on a Saturday. My drink was flat...ordered vodka and tonic.special rice wasn't special at all...no peas and a couple of shrimps. Bland. At least the staff didn't argue this time un like last visit but food lacked soul. It lacked loads. Thought I'd give it a chance but its lost its lust . Prices hiked and no crispy lamb

Great evening. Delicious food. With good service

Great friendly staff, amazing hot food, very tasty nice portions and price will be back again

Been going here for over 15 years. Have introduced over 60 different people over that time. Still our favourite Chinese restaurant.

Food was lovely, waitress was attentive

Perfectly reasonable but with prices it's not at a level where you could say 5*

Lovely meal,very good service 👌

Foods good, however its not good value night out , 1 when ordering a short , it literally comes in a short glass with very small mixer not quality brand and you are charged 80p so £5.20 for a very small G&T. 2 the time they take between each saving is very slow so appetite goes half way through meal. 2yrs on I'm now adding to this review the food is as good as anywhere, the 2 waitress are very good and work incredibly hard and recommend to couple of friends and they agreed.

Great night out with excellent food and bespoke service. The staff worked hard but were still friendly and approachable and looked after us well.

Excellent all you can eat local Chinese restaurant. Staff very nice and service always great.

We hadn't been to Tangs for years because we moved house but decided to try it again. We really enjoyed our meal. The food was delicious and the service excellent. We think that the restaurant's policy of only allowing a certain number of dishes to be ordered at a time is a very good one which ensures that no food is wasted. We ordered some extra portions of our favourite dishes and had more than enough to eat.

Great fresh food !!! Only problem is that you can only order a certain amount of dishes which really slows the service down often not reaching dessert as kitchen closes . We do visit frequently and won’t ever waste food but this is the only downfall .

We went to Tangs over bank holiday, a group of six fellas from the same family. Firstly the rule is that you can only order 7 dishes at once and have to finish those before you can order the next course. Apparently this is to cut down on food waste. This makes the whole process slow and there were long delays between courses. When it did arrive, the food was amazing. Obviously we finished everything and it was delicious. Once we got comfortable after our starters we had the feeling of being rushed. The waitress told us the kitchen closed at 9pm but it was them slowing us down. Overall great food but rushed service. Sadly we won’t be going back.

Been here so many times but the last time we went was not very nice and we was the only ones in the restaurant they actually turned people away

Small, intimate, and cozy. The food was excellent, and the service was superb. Thoroughly recommended.

Excellent value for money food was absolutely delicious ,staff very helpful .

So I love this place and it bothers me also. So, the quality of the food is fantastic, and I love the selection. However, the limit of number of plates you can order and the portions of the plate is too little on both counts. The portion sizes are perfect if you're allowed, maybe two or three plates per person. However, I always go with family, and we find we're waiting longer than we're eating. If the portion sizes were larger or as mentioned, more plates could be ordered, then this place would be a lot better. The service does seem a little cold and less personal, but the staff are nice none the less.

Fantastic service, lovely friendly and attentive staff, great selection of food, all the food was piping hot! Nothing was too much trouble. We had a table of 8 and we started off by ordering 9 different starters which we promptly demolished, we were swiftly asked if we required more in which we then ordered another 6 different starters, then cane the duck course, moist but crispy on the outside, it was simply delicious 😋 great selection, wonderful service and piping hot food brought each time. Would definitely recommend and will most certainly be back, thankyou fir the hospitality

Tangs is a very clean well run restaurant. The staff are always on hand and make sure you have everything you need. I would suggest booking as it gets very busy very quickly . The menu options are incredible with plenty to choose from. The quality of the food is fantastic and I would definitely recommend a visit. Easily one of the best all you can eat restaurants around.

Lovely dining experience with my family. The restaurant is exactly like the pictures, the tables all have a good space between them and the windows bring in a lot of natural light. The food we had here was fantastic. The all you can eat menu is very good with a restriction on how many dishes you can order each time (something like 4 dishes for 2 people, 5 for 3, 6 for 4-5 etc.). All of the dishes are small but come out at the same time. Once eaten you can order everything again if you want and it all comes out fresh and hot. Perfect! We ordered most of the appetizers and everything was delicious. Not a single dish we left. The pork dumplings were one of my favourites but there were so many it was hard to pick! The food is mainly served sharing style, so that everyone can have a try. The service was pretty good, we had to flag someone down a few times but it was quite busy so that isn't a problem. The bathroom is upstairs, which may make it harder to visit for some people. Parking can be a little tricky. There is on street parking outside but it fills up quickly. There is a carpark around a 5 minute walk away. Overall it is a lovely restaurant and I can see why everyone raves about it!

Tried the 1st time as a couple had amazing food and service. Only down side the chairs gave us rotten back ache. Gave it another try and returned with the entire family as aTable of 8 around the round table. We had amazing food and service again. But we all suffered with rotten back ache again. We would love to return as the food is amazing but the chair situation is putting us and others off.

Had one of the best nights at a restaurant for ages. Food was amazing and the service was incredible. Would highly recommend. We are even taking our friends here tomorrow as we enjoyed out time there so much. Freshly cooked and delicious.

Absolutely wonderful experience as always. As a regular customer at Tangs I do not understand what they are talking about. This is a great restaurant. Food is always lovely and freshly cooked for you and the service is out of this world. Really don't understand why anyone would have a problem here. Highly recommend Tangs for romantic or family meals.

Great food, great staff, thoroughly recommended.

What an experience, fantastic food and awesome service. We used to go years ago no idea why we stopped but so glad we returned, thank you for a special Christmas eve xx

To the owner - the food is good - but behavior makes the cut - staff are very rude to specific customers depending on their mood this is not what we expect in hospitality service.

Very bad experience with the restaurant waitress. Will not visit again

I happened to visit this place for a take away late evening. The waitress was so rude. She did not even consider to offer me a seat but rather kept pestering me to order quick and move out .. I told her, I needed time as my partner was parking the car and unfortunately I left my wallet in the car, so had to wait for few minutes.. But, I guess, that was unacceptable. She would rather see me wait out in the cold and come in only when I'm ready to order.And This was with a completely empty restaurant. She said "this is not a waiting room " ..like I was home less and went in there for warmth.. the Irony was I went there from work wearing my NHS work wear ..with all the glamour and clapping people showed us a few years back, this felt like a slap of reality. Irrespective of who we are or what we are, every customer deserves respect. PERIOD . Will never suggest this place ever ever to anyone, unless management changes their behaviour ..

Worst customer service. The waitress has been so rude when we tried to book a place. She says we couldn’t wait there for a table as it is not a waiting area. Very rude. Will never visit this place

Service was terrible. The food alright

Very bad behaviour by staff. Had asked my friend to place an order for a take away, and saw him walk out of there annoyed telling that the lady at the reception was very rude and demanded to order immediately or leave .. very unfortunate and unheard of such behaviour in the UK where most places are very friendly and welcoming. Ended up dining at World Spoon ..had a wonderful evening there

Such rude staff. I was there with my kid while waiting for my wife to park and was told I can't wait .."This isn't a waiting area" in the ladys own words. All I need was a few minutes without being pestered to make an order while waiting at the door. With an completely empty hall, she didn't have the courtesy to offer me a seat , let alone talk politely. She told me , I had 15 minutes to get the order before the guests arrived and had to hurry or move out. If you can't respect customers, then that's not good news for your business.

Extremely good freshly cooked Chinese food

Great food fleshly prepared , friendly attentive staff and standard pricing , will be back for more 👌

Lovely night again!! Delicious Food..Brilliant Service!! Can't wait to go back again!! Thank you!!!

We have been to this restaurant a few times and really enjoyed the food and Chinese waitress always lovely and helpful. Last night we had the worse experience there. Food was OK but all chinese staff sacked and now being waited on by rude ethnic waitresses that seemed to be more interested in serving men only. When it came to our choice of the evening I was refused a menu to choose my food and being so rude at the same time. Shame the old staff have gone.

Fabulous food, great atmosphere and great service. My only issue is toilet upstairs which is awkward due to my mobility.

Despite the fact that both of our kids are 100% Scottish, they LOVE Chinese food, so we order lots of Chinese takeaways (for a Scottish family, anyways!). We tried Tangs for the first time yesterday, and WE WERE HORRIFIED BY THE WAY THEY TREATED US! The woman who answered the phone kept screaming at us, just because (she says) she was busy, and then she hung up on us. We called back, thinking that it was some sort of mistake, AND SHE HUNG UP ON US AGAIN!!! We finally gave up. What kind of business are they running? Folks, dont even think about calling Tangs! They are horrible! I agree with all of the negative reviews in here.

Ridiculous place. They refused my booking as it was an adult and toddler “unfair on me” apparently. Offered to pay for 2 adults but the manager still refused.discrimination against single parents who would just like to eat out. I would give less than 1 star if i could for that type of behaviour.

Eat all you can menu good value worth visiting

Food is delicious everything cooked perfectly, service is fast and efficient, no long waits for your food. Come here regularly and would recommend to anyone

Me and my girlfriends met at Tangs for lunch last month to celebrate one of our birthdays. Then, sometime later, my husband had dinner with his football buddies there as well. We compared notes later, and discovered that we both had horrible experiences at Tangs. It was obvious to both of us that customer service was not a high priority at Tangs, as both of us (and all of our friends) were treated very badly by everyone at Tangs. Me and my husband decided that we would never go back to Tangs again. There are plenty other good restaurants around. Why should be subject ourselves to such horrible treatment by Tangs employees and then PAY FOR IT???

Great food that's hot and fresh, relaxed environment, and very friendly staff.

Amazing food and lovely customer service. Been more times than I like to admit and I always look forward to the next trip!

Good value, good food and good service

Fantastic food at an absolutely great price. Staff are welcoming and attentive. Definitely my favourite Chinese Restaurant by far. Cannot recommend enough.

Rude staff, don’t deserve anyones customs. Called to find out how their “all you can eat” works and was spoken too so rude. This is the second time now, as when we popped in to see if they had tables once I thought they was rude too but thought I’d give them a try again. Definitely won’t ever be getting my custom!

Always fresh, delicious food. waitress Is attentive and very friendly. Definitely recommend booking in advance to avoid disappointment.

I Love going to Tang's. Definitely the best 'all you can eat' buffet around, that also do take out. So many different things to pick from. We're always able to book a table on the day and get a table for 2 with no worries.

Had a lovely meal here with friends

We visited Tang's a year ago, and was treated horribly by a rude and obnoxious Eastern European waitress. We vowed never to return. But we changed our minds and gave it another chance after a year. Unfortunately, it was just as horrible as before. The same waitress who treated as like dirt was still there, and treated us just as horribly as before. I don't understand why the Tang's management doesn't care at all about customer service and why it keeps employing such a horrible server who mistreats customers. I'd echo all the negative comments from other customers about the terrible customer service at this restaurant. NO ONE SHOULD VISIT TANG'S if they care at all about being treated in a decent manner. Yes, the food is very good, but it's not worth having to be treated like absolute dirt by the waitress.

What a wonderful experience it was last night to dine out with friends at Tangs, service was 1st class,meal also was 1st class the atmosphere was great.

Always a lovely Chinese and the staff are always lovely!

Tried booking on several occasions however always met with attitude and someone rude on the phone. Called today at 4.30 for a birthday meal and asked if you have a table this afternoon, they shouted back you mean this evening. In the end told them not too worry. If this is the customer service on the phone hell, knows what it’s like in the restaurant, glad I didn’t go. Always wanted to go here, guess it’s not meant to be….

We visited for the first time last night and was very impressed..The food was great, everything cooked to order and very tasty...The staff were very friendly and we will definitely return when we have longer to try even more...delicious

Overall a lovely evening, lady who served us was very pleasant and explained how the buffett system worked, the food was plentiful and really nice

Lovely food but £4.30 for a pint of lime and soda is extortionate!!!!!

Nice, and tasty food. Well presented and reasonably priced. Nice atmosphere.

Great food, great service. Good choice and price.

Had the all you can eat menu today. Really like the smaller portion sizes of freshly cooked food. The choice of starters was vast and we were offered more once we had finished. Would recommend the squid. But honestly everything was excellent. We moved onto the duck pancakes. Again excellent. After this we just about had room for a main course. The chicken with cashew nuts in yellow bean sauce was very tasty and perfectly cooked. Service was great and I will definitely return.

Nice fresh cooked to order AYCE. Plenty on the menu to delight even the fussiest eaters! Staff are great too and make sure you're well looked after

My parents love this restaurant, so my dad booked a table to celebrate my mums birthday with the family. This was booking was made over the phone 2 weeks prior to the date of visit. Myself and my dad tried multiple times to call the...

Visited here a couple of times now and both times me and my partner have been super impressed! The food is delicious and it’s excellent value for money, only downside was that the chairs became uncomfortable after a while.

Service was warm and friendly and the food was good too, nice evening out

Had a great time, the food was very tasty and excellent value for money. Low music volume meant it was a a great place to meet friends to catch up.

Second visit to Tangs this year & as usual the food was delicious, the service was brilliant and the staff very welcoming and helpful, its a lovely atmosphere and i cant wait to come again at some point

Im fuming. We was trying to order a delivery and the person answering the telephone was so rude we didn’t place our order. We have telephoned Jade East in Strood and their telephone operator could not have been nicer or more helpful. We won’t be...

Group of 7 for a works outing, friendly welcome and friendly service, food was so good, the smoked chicken especially, cant comment on the dessert menu as we were all so stuffed with the delicious dinner we had no room 😂 will definitely return

Came for the first time last night with work friends, right from the start the staff were welcoming and helpful, explained how things worked and brought us drinks while we decided what to start with. The food was so delicious! The smoked chicken was particularly yummy, as was the prawn toast, in fact all the food was nice and hot and cooked to perfection, definitely want to come here again!

Rang to book, lady in the phone was very quick, blunt and to the point which for me I love, still made me giggle. so we went Saturday night, got seated straight away, waitress was very efficient, ordered food and drinks, food was 10 mins,...

All you can eat buffet is perfect 👌 😁

Amazing food and service was fantastic, can't wait to book again. Highly recommended 👌

Excellent will definitely be returning

Great restaurant for all. Freshly cooked all you can eat menu, spoilt for choice. Very friendly staff throughout and fast service.

Takeaway orders are 5% cheaper if paying by cash, seems strange to want cash as a business nowadays? 🤔 The food was great thanks. I agree with you allowing people to pay cash or card (their choice) I can't understand why people paying cash get the discount.

Lusy food, rude service!!! Don't bother!!!

Went for the first time tonight with some friends for a meal... food was lovely, service was great... already booked to go back. Definitely recommend!

There’s no doubt that the food is lovely, we always enjoy it. We’ve been coming to Tangs for years, usually as a family of 6-8 people. We recommended it to 2 friends earlier this month and we found the portions very small between the 4...

Lovely food, very friendly and attentive staff, highly recommended.

Ate here with my wife, daughter & son-in-law for his 40th birthday. It was all you can eat, but you order a set number of dishes at a time. We had two lots of starters, with ribs, satay chicken, prawns, dumplings and more. Then crispy...

Didn't even get a chance to book a table as was greeted with sheer rudeness! called to check if was all you can eat as stated in all these reviews to be told (and I quote) "not all you can eat, not a buffet and fully booked, OK?" And then the phone went dead. After that wouldn't recommend to anyone can't believe the manners of some people!

Tasty takeaway Asian food, reasonably priced.

Beautiful food all fresh amazing

Really, really good. Freshly cooked all you can eat restaurant with a wide choice, particularly of the starters. We had not eaten at Tangs before so had to be "coached" a bit by our friendly, patient waitress. Highly recommended for quality, quantity and value for money.

What a shower of shine...to up theirselves can't deliver to lordswood...well trust us now we don't want you.

Before attending a theatre show in Chatham Central Theatre we attended Tangs Chinese with friends to a pre-show meal. The food,Service and price was fantastic and all completed before the show time at our request and the restaurant staff couldn’t be more accommodating. After the...

Again fantastic service and food love this place

I love this place! I’ve been going here since I was a child and they never fail to impress, gorgeous food and my favourite Chinese yet!

Excellent catered for all our needs will go again

First time here, although it was full there was no delay, the food and service was absolutely excellent!! We will return and have already booked for another date.

Really good for your money and is a truly all you can eat menu 😋 👌

Outstanding and lovely service we had a big party in there food was fantastic and lots of it ... Quick service and absolutely superb 5-star outstanding would highly recommend

Excellent food and service. Thank you.

All you can eat, but not a buffet. The small plates approach (almost like tapas) is a great way the try as many of the fantastic dishes they offer. Some of our favourites were the smoked chicken, BBQ ribs and Singapore rice. Absolutely going to come back again.

Food was wonderful very tasty and hot service was very good.First time here but will be back again
