Tasty House in Vale of White Horse

What happened? Tasty House, once the ‘low end’ of Abingdon Chinese take-away really seemed to get its act together over the last year… new young chap manning the phone/counter, food wonderful. Now their door seems permanently closed. Tasty House - will you ever return?

Ordered Crispy Orange duck got Pineapple sloppy duck wasn’t nice at all little duck lots of pineapple will think twice about returning I’m sure it was because the server spoke hardly any English

Hmmmmm... What can i say. The chicken chow mein was pretty decent, although i would prefer the chicken to be fried a bit longer. However the crispy chicken in lemon sauce was disgustiing. It wasn't crispy but wet, covered in tasstless sauce, didn't taste any lemon. Went in the bin. The prawn fried rice wasnt good too but my child was so hungry he ate half of it. I will be looking for different chinese restaurant around.

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! Ordered from this place on Uber eats. Honestly was not expecting it to be this incredible if I could give 10 stars I would. It came so quick AND WAS SO REASONABLY PRICED! We got the satay beef, duck spring rolls, fried rice, and beef chowmein. We were ravished hungry. I’ve never been so satisfied in my life. LOVED IT SO MUCH. THANK YOU

Not sure why people rate this so low. I buy once a week from here. They have reasonablly good British Chinese food. I lived in China, and it seems pretty good food compared to others in Abingdon.

One of the tastiest takeaways I’ve had. Easy online ordering and confirmation, and ready in 10mins. Very good quality food.

Very bad customer service. Tried to rip me off by charging for delivery when I was there picking it up. Overpriced for what it was - a very dry meat dish. Awful. Will never go there again!

Order here regularly, always been very good - nice curry

Had a few take aways now amazing value and really tasty! I would rather order from here than the other takeaways in Wallingford . The delivery fee is a little steep, but the food always arrives piping hot and ready to s erve! Would recommend!

Just had a delivery for my son birthday. First time trying this takeway and to our surprise, its really good. My favourite is the quarter duck, and the crispy chilli beef. The mixed dim sum is really amazing! Cant find in other takeaways, highly reccomended!

We just had a food delivery for our son’s birthday. To our amazement, it’s really delicious and yummy. I love the quarter duck ! Highly recommended !

......... but no reply to my email requesting a refund for one of the dishes. If you're looking for crispy duck, try another takeaway as Tasty House appears to think a small portion of greasy duck and duck skin with about half a pineapple in a sickly sauce with no sign of a plumb is crispy duck. The rest of out order was OK, but one of our group was left hungry and a little bit nauseous.

Lovely food and you pay for exactly what you get very good food

Love watching everyone eat whilst I have to wait for my order to be resent as it came out wrong the first time! Not the first time this has happened and still waiting now

Would give 0 if possible, Terrible service, driver got lost, food was freezing, they didnt care about it, do not use this restaurant!!!!!

SCAM!! Rude staff and we Didn't receive the food we paid for!!

Great service super friendly. House special fried rice awesome

king prawn curry was best I’ve ever had! Highly recommend tasty house

We ordered from tasty house as a celebratory meal for a birthday. Can honestly say it’s the worst takeaway I’ve ever ordered. It arrived within the given timescale, in a taxi. As a diabetic I inject 20 mins before food so it’s a bonus when food arrives in time, that deserves the one star I had to give. From there on in there were no plus points. The chips were stone cold and hard as rock, clearly refried. Everything else was also cold. Dumplings that I had ordered were missing, beef and mushroom was pure garlic. And the prawn crackers, which were not free, were nothing but crumbs in a bag. In the end we didn’t eat anything and ordered from another Chinese (lucky house -highly recommend) unfortunately it meant us waiting for almost another hour, this led to me becoming quite unwell as I had already injected for the first takeaway. I’ve emailed the takeaway regarding my complaint, twice, with no response. Not even an apology. The moral of this review is don’t use Tasty House. It was also significantly more expensive than the same food we ordered at lucky house.

£19 for 1 portion of a curry and chicken fried rice and spring roll the tasty house was not inviting but that’s just my option

We have ordered a few times and the meals are hit and miss, as they don't seem to listen. But the last meal was the worst I've ever had. No more words - my order was bean curd in black bean sauce and garlic and chilli chips, which we asked to not be too spicy! Same with the chicken wings, which arrive covered in red chilli powder. The photos sum it up. We are now using a different takeaway and won't be using Tasty House again.

We have used Tasty House twice recently, perfect food on both occasions! Their beef fried noodles are absolutely delicious! Quick delivery and reasonable pricing.

Sadly can't give 0 review. Food took 2 hours (only a few hundred yards from them) they lied about traffic although we're on main abingdon town road. 2 vegan dishes ordered, took 2 bites it was beef 🤮 Called they hung up 3 times told to call customer service!!! Totally disgusting food, service and delivery... PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY DON'T ORDER HERE

After waiting nearly 2 hours for a delivery the food arrived cold and missing the cucumber and spring onion from the half duck and pancakes that I ordered, when I phoned to complain and said that I still wanted it delivered it took another hour and half for that to arrive. Only order if you are prepared to wait half the night for your food and are ok with it not being warm.

Shocking. Just shocking. Avoid avoid avoid.

I prefer their curry sauce with my chinese meal

Do NOT eat here, dont waste your money, dont even waste time thinking about this place. By far the worst chinese food I've ever had, only place I've ever seen dark brown almost black sweet and sour sauce, the chicken pieces and chicken balls had some real off cut low quality chicken, didnt taste even slightly bearable, the rice was fully solid, was even able to pick it up as a brick and nothing fall off, biting into a mouthful of rice had the same texture as a bag of peanuts, spring rolls were soggy and limp, ribs had no meat but an excess of fat and to top it off, it was 25 minutes late. Seriously there is not a score low enough, what a waste of money.

11th September 2021 everything was recooked rice was very hard dry and extremely chewy so was everything else it should be called yucky house mind there has been a few posters of missing cats it now makes me wonder what I've just eaten if I start growing whiskers I guest I will never live to tell the tail 😹 not that I'm trying to be catty all I can say is I feel so sorry for the paw customers

Ordered over 1.5 hours ago, and the restaurant won’t answer my calls

The worst experience. Don’t expect food to ever arrive if you order online. Be prepared to get your cereal out, and have breakfast for dinner, like I did.

A good chinese, kept pushing my delivery time back first it would take an hour then an hour and a half and altogether i waited 2 hours and 15 minutes. overall food was good

We ordered a Chinese from Tasty House last weekend. The food was perfect! We ordered a portion of chicken balls, some fried beef, prawn toast and rice. The food was delivered quickly and was really tasty! Highly recommend.

This place is shocking. Food is terrible and 2 hours late. NEVER GOING HERE AGAIN!

Might not look amazing from the shop front, but food was a step up from my usual Chinese, so will be visiting again :)

Average and the staff was not very friendly food was ok but far too many onions And that doesn’t add to the taste but is used to fill the boxes up I’m sure there must be a better way

Awful service food was cold, took 90 minutes to deliver never again

very Nice Meal sent to us, good value. came on time, i have used them many times and have had good service and food every time,

This evening Sat 24th April 2021 we ordered two portions of sweet and sour chicken balls which were fine. We also ordered two portions of chips which were refried, cold and totally unfit to eat. The gift of prawn crackers was a joke as the bag was just a bag of bits and crumbs. Very disappointing and will not be using again. Do not recommend

This restaurant is a scam! Don't order from them because you won't receive your food and when you try and find out what happened to you're order they just shout at you on the phone and then hang up on you!

So impressed with the quality of food here. Great flavour, fresh, and the food that should be spicy is actually spicy!! That’s rare around here!! Second time ordering, and food was exactly the same as the last time...very happy. My new regular Chinese.

Absolutely shocking. Food not delivered. 100+ calls later, they don’t even answer the phone. NYE - we ordered 5.20pm. Order says delivered ??? - not delivered ! incredibly disappointed. Seriously- don’t bother. Hoping we get our money back ....

Good food, we've never been disappointed. Big portions, always quick to deliver.

Great little takeaway, yummy food and ready for collection on time 👌😀👌

Ordered a takeaway through justeat at 6.30pm. Told it should be delivered by 7.30pm. 9.00pm still no delivery 20 phone calls and not answered. Why commit to being able to deliver and not bothering? If you want to eat I wouldn’t bother ordering from here. If I could give it minus stars I would.

My wife and I had a bit of a boozy night and had some takeaway from here the other night and thoroughly enjoyed it.

We spent 2 hours just to get a single 6 pound refund. I can't believe they missed out 1 of 5 dishes, my friend had to starve for a good 2.5 hours and I'm not standing for it. At least we got the refund back. The service was decent

Shocking, I can’t eat mushrooms as they make me ill. Put that in notes on order. Food arrived and had mushrooms. Lady disagreed as chef said it didn’t. Just wouldn’t believe me. Asked me to send her a picture. Food went in bin and will not use again. Awful service

Due to lockdown was missing my Chinese treat. Didn't know about Tasty House before today. Food arrived early. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

We have had 4 meals from here or the last 6 months and have never been disappointed. Friendly delivery drivers and wonderful fresh cooked food. Brilliant. We will be back.

Great food, one of the best in Abingdon. Good service for ordering and delivery. I'm not a frequent customer but have consistently really enjoyed my orders from here over the past couple of years.

I didn't realise that noodles are the same as chow meins. I thought noodles are just noodles. A chow mein is with noodles and bean sprouts with which meat you choose. I guess lesson learnt! Tonight I received very few dishes for the money We paid and they was very rude on the phone!!

Terrible food and got one of the dishes wrong. We would have complained but the rest of the food was so bad we didn't see the point. The Thai curry is an absolute joke.

We have ordered from Tasty House a few times and have enjoyed it every time! The food is always delivered quickly. I can really recommend the chicken satay starter! The chicken curry is also delicious.

After reading the previous reviews we was nervous about ordering from here! But... it was lushhhhh!! One of the best Chineses we have had in a long time!

Ordered a takeaway for collection, they said it would be ready in 10 minutes which is always a bad sign as it suggests it's not fresh and has just been reheated. I've always felt that if a takeaway can't do prawn crackers then you're onto an absolute loser - that was exactly the case here. Terrible prawn crackers and tasteless reheated food. Probably the worst Chinese I've ever had.It's also cash only.....Will never return.

when it first opened, I really enjoyed their food. However, since it has been taken over, after this evening's meal I will not be returning. Prawn crackers virtually tasteless, vegetable chow mein was noodles in oil with three bits of broccoli and the special fried rice is nothing specialand swimming in watery gravy

We ordered chicken balls with sweet and sour sauce plus an extra pot of curry sauce and two portions of egg fried rice. The food was delivered really quickly, it was hot and delicious. Good value for money and generous portion sizes. We will use Tasty House again.

Very poor service. Under new management and The staff have no manners at all. Disappointed with the food. This takeaway deserves minus stars

Omg rude rude woman messed order up but not her fault !!!! Screaming banshee!!!befiore lovely helpful girl and nothing ever wrong but this new lady omg AVOID !!!!also meant ti.put no delivery mans fault he was great !!!!!

Used to be excellent, however under new management and food has gone downhill. Spend £40 yesterday and meal was mostly horrible, won't use again

Always used these, but the special fried that I normally have was tasteless and hardly any meat, spent £40, money wasted wont be going back, ruined a good chinese

When I review this Chinese takeaway a year ago, I was pleasantly pleased and hope that this Chinese was going to have come one of the best in Abingdon. Well to my utter shock it has new management. Firstly I had friends round and ask them to try this really good Chinese. Well, they have ruined it for me as they have to change the contents of most of my favourite dishes, less meat in curries and more veg, some meat far too dry. Anyway, some of my friends found it nice and would have it again, so It may not be to my liking anymore give it a go for yourselves and make your own mind up.

We ordered a Tasty House last week and was impressed by the quick delivery. The food was hot and everything was tasty. The only gripe really was that some pieces of beef in the curry were really chewy! Very nice food though.

I like this one no fuss you get what you order quickly, prices are good, meat content high not just loads of onions, and as the name says it’s tasty, what more could you want, I have tried two others in Abingdon but I think this is the best, I will be back again.

We had a delivery this evening, we spent £35.00 and couldn’t eat it, the food was tasteless and cold, the chips were awful, stale and hard.

Standard menu for a Chinese takeaway, reliable and food, good flavours. Time estimate for food being ready is good, allows time for a quick pint in the Crown and Thistle across the road.

Used Tasty House again last night and was perfect! Beautiful curry sauce and the chilli chicken starter was tasty and not too spicy!

Placed order 1.5 hours+ ago of food worth over £30. NOT been delivered, NO communication, NO manners, NO professionalism, POOREST customer service. NEVER EVER again. My advice is to AVOID. AVOID AT ALL COST. Absolutely disgusting. If you have kids excited for their food - place your order with a restaurant who cares about customer satisfaction not to some money grabbing chinese restaurant.

Phoned for a home delivery as we always have a takeaway at the weekend. Thought this may be a good new takeaway as I've seen a couple of reviews. Really I wouldn't bother...

We used Tasty House for the first time and felt everything lacked flavour! The delivery was nice and quick though.

A pleasant surprise to find this little gem of a Chinese takeaway with tasty, well cooked and prepared food at a very good price. Their shredded duck with hoisin sauce is excellent! Their chicken fried rice (my standard test of how good they are) is very good! Only small down was their chips (fries) - not great.

There used to be a very good Chinese takeaway in the centre of town but they closed last year. This one is convenient for boaters right by the bridge. The best part was the hot and sour soup and the prawn crackers. The rest was dire in the extreme. We spent over £34 so they threw in the crackers and some soggy wings. The duck was tough and mostly skin with gloopy sauce. Crispy chilly chicken was also soggy, Singapore noodles were tasteless and beef in ginger and spring onions fairly awful. Banana fritters were also soggy. All in all very poor and we won't be returning in a hurry. Anyone know a half decent Chinese takeaway in Abingdon please let us know.

This is becoming one of the best Chinese takeaways in Abingdon, the staff are very friendly and the food is hot and of good quality also the delivery service was spot on.

Nice food, one item missing so called to ask for this to be delivered, no real apology as such, when missing item turned up the delivery driver tried to charge us again for this item even though I had already paid on the original order. Put off from ordering again, Shame as food is nice.
