Taste Of China in Broxbourne

Disappointed, chicken balls were tough couldn’t eat them.

Unusually the chicken was very chewy

They just did not taste of barbecue ribs will not reorder them

The best flavours of any restaurant in the area along with generous portions.

Great delivery, and mostly very good food, sadly the ribs ( both the BBQ and the honey), were very poor, cut into small chunks, no taste and full of gristle.

Perfect thank you whilst five mins late never a problem - always recommend 👍🏻

The chicken balls were really overcooked - horrible and ended up in the bin. The rest of the order was fine

Food arrived piping hot and was so delicious!

The food wasn’t great. The duck in orange sauce did not taste right at all. Couldn’t eat it

Delivery was slightly earlier than estimated food was good quality.

Ordered from here before and food was very good.This occasion was not the same experience at all. Very very greasy, it didn't taste fresh, Malaysian noodles were very bland, the chicken was chewy, certainly not worth the £40 we spent. Wont be back.

Not as good this week, food wasn’t very hot, ribs a bit fatty and seaweed a bit chewy

First and last time I order for delivery, never in over 20 years have I had a bad meal from taste of china and I know if I’d have collected it would have been perfect but waiting over an hour for delivery when I know it would have been ready affected the meal

Really wanted to love this but all three dishes were less than satisfactory. Stuffed aubergine was swimming in a 2mm layer of oil - almost inedible, I drained it with kitchen paper. Chicken balls tough and dry inside and over-fried so far too crunchy with a burnt flavour. The batter was thin and hard all through. Singapore noodles lacked detectable curry seasoning. It was a complete miss for me I’m afraid.

The duck was very dry and not enjoyable

awful delivery. app was saying delivered at 19.30 and to enjoy. Food arrived 20.15. Ordered just after 6pm.

Have ordered from Taste of China many times and always had a nice meal however today’s takeaway was something else. Not sure if something has changed business wise but today was probably one of the best Chinese takeaways I’ve had. The prawn toasts were chunky and delicious, the seaweed was fresh and crispy and everything else hot and tasty!

The website says that you are open on Mondays sign outside and says" open, "but you were not so a friend had come to see me and I said we will go to the taste of China.

Crispy duck not as good as it used to be.

Food was great but spent £140.00 and not even a free bag of prawn crackers, shame.

Been here a few times now. It's very nice food and atmosphere

Lovely restaurant with welcoming staff. Food was served pretty quickly

Chow mein with hardly any chicken or other vegetables. Prawn toast were tasty and spring rolls

The food was delicious and hot - really pleased!

delicious food as usual, best food in the town, complments to chefs!

Since it changed hands its awful. The chow mein came burnt I asked them to bring another one and take the burt one back. 3/4 of an hour later they delivered a new one by which time the rest of the food was cold The second one was not burnt but it tasted burnt they must have used the same wok. Will never eat that rubbish again. This is my opinion I can't speak for other costomers. They need a new chefThey sometimes send the wrong order. Truly awful. Bad service. Not the taste of china it used to be. I've given it 1 star but even that is too much. Wes good a few years ago but that was as I said before excellent before New people took over.. Bad quality yuk. Very expensive and forget the courtesy of prawn crackers. Not happening. Rude staff.

We have been eating here for over 30 years and never disappointed. It’s by far the best Chinese restaurant locally. Always delicious food.

driver was nice. polite. Great service

Not the best, not the worst. S&P chicken no taste at all, so bland same goes for the S&P chips. Regular chips tasted like they had been cooked yesterday. Beef very chewy in black bean but sauce tasted okay. Very hit and miss last few times we’ve ordered from here. Spent £65 and not even a free bag of prawn crackers. Overall didn’t hit the spot.

Speedy delivery.excellent quality as always

Over an hour to deliver on a Tuesday Night, food extremely bland all the proteins tasted Frozen. Disappointing

Very very nice. Ordered 16.50 arrived 17.25. Special Fried Rice, Chicken Chow mein and S&S Prawn balls. Food was hot and portions big, lots of sauce and the taste was of China, it was excellent and not greasy as some can be. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

On time and a great service, food hot and fresh!

Having eaten at the restaurant for so many years, I thought I’d try a takeaway. Unfortunately the food was very dry and portion size was small. Shame.

Never had a bad meal here. Can't get enough of the place. Tonight we have the Gourmet Set Meal. It was fabulous. Food is always delicious, service is excellent. Not to be missed

Disgusting food. Tasteless and flavourless.

The chicken balls where not fresh

was so so. pretty bland. and didn't receive the drink i order

My husband and I just had a delivery from this restaurant. The food was bland, the sweet and sour chicken was chewy. We will not use this restaurant again 😒

Great food and speedy delivery!

first and last order...food arrived cold, you'd think on a 'busy' night it would at least be fresh but was like eating plastic. couldn't even get chips right...crispy chill beef was clumped in one piece, more like crispy chilli wood...crab claws were decent.

My husband was poorly all night and in to the next day . And took a few days for him to feel well again

We have ordered before and it’s always hit and miss. This time marks the last time. The duck was dry and burnt as were the chicken balls, crispy chilli beef and sesame prawn toast. It’s quite obvious, the oil was in need of changing as I could taste the burnt oil taste. Very disappointed. Upset bellies the next day

Taste of China has been in Hoddesdon for many years. I finally visited. Menu is good and varied. Food tasty, hot and well presented. Extra little touches like fresh finger bowls of lemon water with each course really made it feel special. The music was Chinese music so it created an authentic ambience. Staff were polite, attentive and provided great service. We enjoyed it so much we're definitely going back.

The woman in the restaurant is so rude I was very uncomfortable. The man took my order and she spoke to him almost shouting. I couldn’t understand but could tell she was angry that he was serving me 1st before other customers just rude ! Food was ok rushed won’t be going back

Excellent quality,early delivery.would definitely recommend

Very tasty. Food arrived hot. Great quality. Worth the money.

Been there quite alot and normally nice tbh. Got a delivery and I will be throwing it away. Absolutely terrible and waist of money. Did try to tell them before review but they didn't seem interested or concerned in the slightest. Very disappointing will not use or recommend again

Food was overcooked and generally nothing like the quality it used to be

Called at estimated delivery time as we received ‘enjoy your food’ notice but no food had been delivered. Restaurant said it was a few minutes away with the driver. Waited 20mins and nothing had arrived. Called again and was told it was still on route. Waited a further 15 mins and called again to be told it had just left the restaurant with the driver. So the initial call the food hadn’t even been cooked! Food delivered a whole hour after eta. Food was cold and ruined.

Food didn’t turn up. When chased, it finally arrived an hour late with no apology given. Because of this, we wouldn’t order again.

I have never had such a bland Chinese in all my time , especially the noodles was so dry and no taste I had to put my own soya sauce , the rice tasted old not fluffy but hard , the wongton soup the dumplings tasted so processed, had also the imperial starter, the ribs was hardly no meat90 percent bone and after all that spending over 30 pounds for one person , they didn’t even include a small bag of rice cracker , they wanted another 3 pounds , Never again !

It was New Year’s Eve so understandable going to be late

Decent place for Chinese food came out fairly fast and yh solid choice for dining in with a large group

Quality food at a reasonable price

Food was not as expected. Ordered chicken satay, came with no satay sauce at all - just dry chicken! Not very happy with the food today - won't order again

We love taste of china however tonight we felt there was room for improvement. Unsure if the kitchen staff have changed or if it was due to ordering via just eat as we usually order and collect direct. Peas in the curry were undercooked, pork chow mein lacked flavor, the noodles were stuck together and the Thai curry didn’t seem to be seasoned. We had duck, always enjoy that however only enough spring onions for one wrap and the Chinese curry, although tasted different, was enjoyable. The delive

I am so disappointed with our dinner tonight. It’s not very often we get a take away, we view it is a treat as it is so expensive. Our dinner tonight was not good. The curries were too oily to even eat, the broccoli was massively overcooked, the beef was just disgusting. I don’t often complain and I very rarely do reviews but I was so disappointed with this, I haven’t even left my table and I am writing this. What I would say is the delivery was bang on time and the delivery lady was lovely. I w

As I said 2 years ago their noodles were burnt. 2 weeks ago I went there with my family and we sent them back. We had nearly finished our meal by the time the sunburnt noodles came. Today I’ve ordered takeaway and made a point of asking for them not to sent burnt noodles but again they did. I will never eat their food again

Must say that the food here is some of the best Chinese I’ve eaten in UK. Very tasty and full of flavour. Would definitely recommend.

I'm allergic to mushrooms and they were present in my dish. Having previously phoned the restaurant they confirmed no mushrooms. Inedible for me sadly

Half crispy duck was more like a quarter with virtually no cucumber and onion

Fantastic Chinese food. A bit on the expensive side, however you get what you pay for in quality and quantity of ingredients . Best Chinese for miles around ! Will go back again and again. Staff friendly and helpful.

Food was cold and Didnt taste fresh

Use the restaurant all the time to eat in and its fantastic. However tonights order was awful, delivery window kept getting later and food was STONE cold on arrival making it pretty much inedible.

Awesome 🤩 we all enjoyed the food 🍲

Food is delicious, shame about the late delivery

Very disappointed, food delivered 30 mins late. Food lukewarm, had to me microwaved .

Really good food and fast, friendly service. Good atmosphere.

The curry sauce was watery and some of the prawns over cooked. No sauce with spring rolls! Not restaurant quality and expensive for what it was.

Chicken balls were more like chicken bites, prawn toast all bread no prawn, still trying to chew the salt and pepper chicken and crispy chilli beef, chow mein was more like vermicelli.

Food was on par with other local Chinese restaurants. Surprised a bag of prawn crackers wasn’t throw in when order was £40!

Very nice only thing is that they forgot to add a drink to my order

The chicken balls where rock hard, not good enough for the cost of the food.

Food was hot. Lot if it. Tasted great

Pretty good Chinese! Would have appreciated it being slightly warmer but overall super tasty!!

Cold, tasteless food! Won’t order ever again, complete waste of money. Also 50 minutes late.

Starter mix was missing bits. The only thing that was there was ribs and chicken

Trying to find a new Chinese after our trusty favourite Ocean Palace closed, so gave this one a try. Food arrived early which was a nice surprise but needed to heat the food up as was cold and got chicken curry instead of beef, fortunately we like chicken but wasn’t what we ordered. Not sure we’d order from there anytime soon.

Great food but I wish they'd publish main ingredients so people can avoid foods they're allergic/intolerant to or simply don't like

First time ordering from Tase of China. Food was hot, not greasy. I enjoyed it and will be ordering from here again.

Food was delicious but really disappointed in the prawn toasts were just 4 small pices ( always are 6) on a piece of baguette for 7£ ... Sorry but they should call if they run out of them ... Don't make a alternative in baguette... Plus one of the curry dishes was not closed properly and some sauce spilled out

Sadly the recipe was different for my chicken with cashew nuts and now includes mushrooms that I'm allergic to. I've ordered this a lot and it used to be perfect. Such a shame

Very tasty and very hot. Delicious.

Food was delicious. The meat was good quality and the veg was cooked perfectly. This was the best Chinese meal I’ve had for years!

The best thing about the order was the efficient on time delivery. The food was warm, but lacked flavour. We ordered chicken chow mein, beef chow mein and chicken stir fry with ginger and spring onions. The noodles lacked flavour - we added salt. The chicken in the chicken with ginger and spring onions was overcooked, no real flavour of ginger. A miss all round. Will not order again.

Good amount of food. Arrived quite warm and on time. Teriyaki chicken was really good and spring rolls nice and crunchy

After our local Chinese disappointed on two consecutive occasions we were looking for an alternative. Friends recommended the Taste of China and tried for the first time going for the Gourmet Set Dinner. Staff happily changed the lamb dish for a chicken and we all throughly enjoyed. Would have given 5 stars but for the decor. Needs updating.

Everything was really delicious

We ordered a takeaway for collection Saturday 5th November. The bill came to £160 for 8 people which we thought was more expensive than usual. We collected and took home to eat, the chicken dishes were awful with fatty chicken which was tough and chewy, the shredded duck had green all over it so we threw away have pictures but can't post) The beef dish had hair in it so couldn't eat that either. Absolutely disgusting! They are not using good quality food but they are still charging you the prices for better quality they use to use. We are never eating from here again!! Many year's ago the food here was great..such a shame.

Great food, brilliant quality and I highly recommend the kung po stir fry beef

Just moved to the area.and taste of china was recommended by a friend. Absolutely fantastic Chinese takeaway.portions were good,food was delicious,not oily or cold due to delivery. Highly recommended this restaurant.6 star quality

quality food and delivery was much faster then it said so all round brilliant

Superb food, piping hot and very tasty

Absolutely brilliant as always. Malaysian rice is a must 😁

The lemon chicken was very dry and bland ,the chips were quite hard and the chicken curry was tasteless and watery quite disappointed not been like that before

Lovely restaurant with excellent food.

One of the best. Takeaways we’ve had in a long time, throughly recommended

Bit disappointed with the food today. Wasn't very hot. Not usual for this takeaway.

Nice that was early & good quality
