I would rather have given no stars at all. Worst Chinese takeaway ever, watery and tasteless. Will definitely not be going back and wouldn't advise anyone else to either, especially on a Wednesday night.

I absolutely loved this takeaway 20 years I’ve been going to china chef looking forward for a surprise Mother’s Day of cooking to my favourite place got home some of the orders wasn’t in the bag this has happened a couple of times so dishing up the food noticed it was oily the amount of oil was absolutely swimming in it it was disgusting 🤮 none of us ate much of it through the night we was all up being sick spook to the gp today and was told we all had the same problem which he put to food poisoning I will never be going there again 65 quid down the drain

Crispy chilli beef and Kung Po chicken were OK but Chow mein was bland and egg fried rice was stodgy. The spice came from jalapeños which I was surprised by as would usually expect that in Mexican cuisine not Chinese.

Had the ribs and they were tough and sparse, one had just a sliver of meat down one side and the barbecue sauce was fluorescent red and tasted of sweet and sour sauce. The pork was tough and the rest of the meal was so bland it just melded in together. Dad was up, very poorly in the night. Awful.

The staff were lovely. My order was simple. I know what I am eating when it comes to Chinese as I try and replicate the restaurant experience at home. The ingredients were barely cooked and I recogonised the brand from a super market. Chinese Tofu is cut into small pieces and fried, with vegetables and then a home made sauce is added. In this case is was super market tofu cut into giant chunks with what tasted just like blue dragon stir sauce. Heated in a microwave. The vegetables of which there very few tasted of supermarket frozen vegetables - that frozen to heated taste without time to absorb flavour - It was horrible to eat Im sorry to say. It was a delivery. The CHOP SUEY was nothing but bean sprouts - a huge cause for botulism and not what I had asked for - I wanted broccoli with my mushrooms. I may have got one or two mushrooms and one piece of broccoli and Im not exaggerating! As a vegetarian I asked for Singapore noodles with vegetables. These arrived as regular egg noodles, again you buy from a shop with no vegetables. This is the worst delivery I have ever had. I am sorry guys I have to tell it like it is. I threw it all away. What a waste of money. You could have earned yourself a loyal weekly customer. Put more effort in. All the best for the future as you seem like decent people!

Ordered some food last night as had meals in the past and it was ok . Well I have never in my life had a Singapore noodles with bloody big lumps of TINNED SPAM in it! it's even curved on the ends where it's come out of the tin. Food was not good some was cold and very small portions although it's gone 20% up since my last order a few months ago. Never will I use them again

Ordered a large amount of food last night (£85 worth) and it was all awful. Phoned to inform them and very dismissive and rude, no apology, offer to put right. Order was wrong Chow mein massively over cooked- microwaved - all sloppy, little flavour Beef in black bean - very tough meat and no flavour Ribs completely dry and deep fried No ginger vinegar with grilled dumplins Special Rice was bland and dry (no egg, like boiled rice with a few bits thrown in) Every thing was rubbery like it had been microwaved to within an inch of its life. Worst Chinese I have ever had - 1 Star was too Much, but couldn't leave review without it

The food from here is absolutely disgusting! The spring rolls are just deep fried batter, the “crispy” duck is soggy, the noodles and rice taste like they have been microwaved. I could go on. Very disappointed. Spent £50 on the worst chinese I’ve ever had.

Not impressed, food very mediocre. Egg fried rice was boiled rice with tiny bits of egg... Beef in black bean sauce was bland and chewy, fillet beef singapore style was awful, chips were gross. If locals think this is good food... I feel you have no idea what good takeaway Chinese food is, never again. Would score 1 star if I could.

Not very glamorous to look at. A little scruffy in terms of decor but everything looked very clean . Have heard poor reviews of this place later on in the evening but we collected ours at 7pm and it was freshly cooked to order. Theirs were the best spring rolls we have ever had and the other dishes were very good too.

The worst take away food I’ve had in a very long time. Pork balls so tough I can’t even bite through and chow mien tastes burnt. Standard rice. £15 for that. Very disappointing.

Worst Chinese I have ever had, kung po chicken was bland with no kick whatsoever, ribs were so fatty has cost £32 for 2 people who are still hungry and disappointed. Usually use bokays in addlestone and thought I would try somewhere different will never make that mistake again! If you want flavour in your food do not go here

Been a customer of China Chef since they opened. It was excellent! and myself and my parents were regular customers. In truth I still go there but not as much as I find the prices seem to have been creeping up and you don't get much change from £20 for a meal for 1. The other factor is that the quality has dropped in the last year or so. To qualify that, my son is a creature of habit and only eats vegetable Singapore noodles, so we order that every time... however it is hit and miss, sometimes they are really good and other times verging on awful (greasy, mashed broken noodles, uncooked vegetables and no flavour, being the worst experience). I gave 3 stars because of the hit and miss issue, half the time they are good, but the other half no so great. However the kitchen should take a look at the guys that take your order, they are consistently friendly, helpful, quick (they know that menu inside-out) and always welcome you with a smile and hello - can't fault the customer service.

Hospitalised with food poisoning from this place a while ago. Ever wondered why the food is cooked so quick? It's because they cook a lot of it before they open and then just warm it up. Admittedly this was a couple of years ago but after reading these reviews I though ibwould comment. We had our food on the Saturday night and by Sunday I was rushed to hospital. Put on a drip to replace vital fluids and had to take anti sickness tablets. Complained to authorities who said they may do an inspection and spoke to the China chef who basically didn't give a stuff. Having rubbish food is one thing but to hospitalise your customers is something else

Takeaway took over an hour to arrive despite being told it would arrive within the hour however main criticism is the food gave both myself and my husband extremely bad food poisoning! We were both violently ill for 48 hours and I'm 3 months pregnant which made it even harder! DEFINITLY NEVER ORDERING FROM HERE AGAIN. STAY AWAY!!!

The food is great, but if your ordering on a Friday night maybe look else where, if you order through Deliveroo, once accepted the order is delayed, we waited over 1.5hrs for our order. Not worth it. Very difficult to complain or reorder else where once the order has been accepted. Classic example of over promising and under delivering. Very disappointing.

Brought down by the terrible service at the restaurant. Sent the expensive steak back as it was as tough as old boots. Chose a burger instead and they tried to charge me for both. Breakfast was a disaster, cold food and cold snotty eggs. I took it back and noted it was all cold. They tried to charge me for that too. Disgraceful.
