If you want chippy, go elsewhere tbh, also the Chinese is very poor. Special chow mein just dumped with a load of soy sauce, absolutely swimming in it.

Ordered a special chow mein, it was almost all noodles with a very very little else. Chow mein had a weird dirty flavour. Nothing special about it. Rib portion was laughable and they were dry as a bone no pun intended. My wife's fish and chips were awful also. One to AVOID!!!!

I have just received a delivery that I placed this evening and 1 of the dishes have come wrong, ordered special chow main and received special fried rice. called back to advise one of the dishes have been sent out wrong only to be told do not eat the special fried rice we will send out the special chow main but it will be min of 30min wait along with an additional 90p charge and that there's nothing else that they can do. I let them know that I order from there at least twice a month and now because of an inconvenience caused by sending out an incorrect dish you want me to wait 30mins and also charge me an extra 90p to which she said yes. I advised that this would be the last time that I would order from them to which they did not care. I then advise them to pick up the special fried rice and refund my money for the dish. I am currently waiting for the dish to be collected. This has cost them £4.50 to collect a dish and my repeat custom when they could have just said were really sorry we will send out the correct dish. To add insult to injury the chicken in the chicken curry was slimy and cold which was not eaten and the fried rice was clumped together like boiled rice. Very disappointed with the customer service as this was a regular place that we ordered from. It will be zenz in old Harlow from now on.

I have been using this takeaway for a few years now, only because it's local! The people taking your money aren't friendly, they just take your money and then look behind for the next customer. If you go there on a busy day check your order, my orders have been, on many occasions, wrong, and the orders weren't that big. My main complaint is consistency with the taste of the food. From the changing taste of the soups (which is normally ok) but never the same from week to week, to...if you can believe it! The taste of the curry sauce. If you order boiled rice make sure it's not to eat alone, as on many occasions mine wasn't very moist, sometimes it's dry and sometimes a little hard. Their chips! Order a large potion if you want a sensible amount of proper size chips. If you order regular chips about half the potion will be small, off cuts and hard bits. They have only once given me free prawn crackers (unlike others I've tried who are happy to do this) for placing a large order, but this one off was on top of the potion I had already ordered and paid for! I didn't need two potions! Their prices are a bit above other Chinese takeaways I've tried in Harlow, but then, I believe they've raised them three times this year. Finally... Don't bother complaining to the boss about anything! I wanted to complain a couple of times but he won't come out from the kitchen! He just waves and I believe is saying "I'm too busy to talk"! I wouldn't recommend this takeaway to my friends, but I will still frequent it, because I can get to it without using my car.

Looks like a very nice Chinese takeaway which also doubles as a fish and chip shop. We enjoyed two fish and chips meals and a pie and chips. Nice portion of chips, lovely fish, pie etc. It's an easy 4 stars, will revisit but can't comment on the Chinese side of the business but no reason to be concerned. Good control measures, cash only. Outside could be an issue for the young.

First off all I have had two different experiences with the food shop in Harlow, one being the Chinese and another being a take away battered sausage and chips with a curry sauce.Firstly the Chinese, we rung up on our way to collect and I clearly stated my order and the girl who took it read it back and all was correct.My partner went in to collect and we noticed one of our dishes was missing which wasn’t good, we did check to see if we had been charged and we hadn’t and didn’t want to wait for the dish to be cooked as the other food would have gone cold. So we weren’t to impressed! When we got back the food was not up to scratch! Would not return! Secondly I decided to give the place another go as I thought it could have been a one off, this time I went to order a small battered sausage (only one size) as I got bluntly told the same with the chips where I was again bluntly told only a small or a large,and a curry sauce! I was charged £5.70! This is a crazy price! The chips and curry sauce were fine but the battered sausage was dry! It would have been nice if the staff were friendly as they weren’t in this case! NOT RETURNING!!!!!

This is the worst Chinese food I have come across in my entire life. The Beef Udon was just pieces of beef and boiled udon noodles sitting in this horrible sweet sauce, noway was this wok fried. Same for the prawns Udon. No garlic, no soy sauce, nothing! Totally bland and Both only half filled. I had to throw everything in a colander, wash all that horrible sauce off, and wok fry it with onions, garlic, ginger, white pepper, dark soy sauce, fish sauce, rice wine, sesame oil and someChilli paste. Salt and pepper ribs was absolutely bland! Battered soggy ribs with bits of spring onions. Had to remake that as well with garlic, ginger, soy sauce, 5 spice, chillies.

Pretty good but pricey. That is understandable given the prime location and they staff are always pretty fast and friendly. I'd suggest lowering the chip prices, just the chip prices. Everyone knows the price for a kilo of taters so everyone can see the markup. £2.60 for a bag of chips just makes you look greedy. That mean spiritedness makes me say I'll just go home and make my own dinner 9 times out of 10.

I ordered a rather simple meal which included pancakes rolls. When I got home after collecting my food I was sorely disappointed to find my pancake rolls were absolutely gigantic mounds of battered, soggy mess. I have never had a pancake roll which has been dipped in batter (like you’d get on a fish super) and then fried until it resembles a brick. I tried to bite into it but it was rock hard, which I hurt my tooth so I had to crack it open. Inside wasn’t much better.....the actual pancake was raw and soggy and the filling was a watery, tasteless mush.All in all, the rest of the food was ok but I definitely don’t recommend anyone to get the sorry excuse for “Pancake Rolls”; a greasy, heavy, tasteless and STRANGE food option. I almost felt like it was a joke/mistake that it was battered because surely nobody likes these?!

we ordered a Chinese from here for family and the order came to £55, we had our own duck and pancakes which we cooked at home and asked if they could sell us the spring onion and cucumber accompaniment. When we went to pick up our order they said that they could not sell us this without the duck even though they said they would on the telephone - very disappointed - not good customer service - will not be returning!!!

take away chinese food very nice and can get very busy, but avoid the chips, the worst I’ve ever tasted.

Worst Chinese I’ve ever had. Had absolutely no taste, delivered after an hour and a half and order was wrong. Wouldn’t recommend!
