The Happy Chef Chinese in Lewes

Very disappointed with what we received, Called to express my concern and not acknowledge what I am complaining about. I will never order again from them

Great service food is ok I guess

Sooo tasty! there is always a lot of meat in the dish! not like others that will put lots of veggies to fill the pot. The delivery always very quick and ... oh I love the lady on the phone who will sometimes do something extra for me!

Takeaway only!!! Been ordering from here 9yrs They only do takeaway.. Prices going up and food is going down.......................................... .

Great food as always! Thanx V & Family. xx 🤠

Cracking Chinese! Better than the other place I ordered from when I moved to seaford! Going to be a new regular for sure ☺️👌🏻will try more and different meals next time aswell 💯🔥

Good takeaway, not the cheapest, but definitely good quality which is the most important thing. Service is quick and friendly with no dramas.

The worst Chinese I've ever had by far! Also the most expensive. What a pile if s**t is all I can say, disgusting!!

It's probably the greatest Chinese takeaway in East Sussex. Quick, hot, excellent food at a great price, served by friendly staff!

Always great and staff friendly

Absolutely beautiful!! The food was amazing and the customer service was 5*! Definitely ordering again.

Very friendly efficient service and the food is very good

Lovely friendly service last 8yrs.. Good delivery service 👍 The prices have gone up... Few regular dishes we used to have Have gone down hill

Polite, friendly and quick service. Really nice food except, the sauces come separate to the meat. Although the chicken for our lemon sauce was very tasty and in bite size pieces, the sauce was very thick, pale and tasted like Ambrosia custard. No issues with the rest of our choices though. All in all, a nice Chinese and one to use again.

We always order with them and great every time:)

Lovely food made quickly. Fabulous owners, chatty, pleasant and smiling all time. Amazing experience for.. basic take away.

Really tasty and speedy delivery. Salt and pepper prawns are delicious!

Happy Chef maybe, but Happy me - no.... Horrible take away, quality poor, curry sauce packet tasting, everything I ordered - not good. Very, very disappointed 😔.

First time ordering here, and I am delighted to say that me and my misses loved it. Customer service from the phone call to the delivery was amazing! Food arrived super quick, steaming hot and well packed. We will definitely be ordering again.

Throughly enjoyed my experience at The Happy Chef Chinese, ravishing food and exquisite service. My personal faves are the lovely chicken balls and chicken and sweet corn soup! Arrived piping hot and it was great to see they accept card payment now. 10/10 would recommend to a friend for sure.

Always our first choice for a take away. Lovely friendly staff and the food is always 10/10

We have been using this Chinese take away for a good while now and have always enjoyed our meals. We always have salt and pepper chicken as one of our dishes and it has always been excellent until last night! I think they forgot to put any chicken inside the batter, the chicken bits were so small and we couldn’t taste any chicken. Sadly the prices have increased and the standard of this chicken dish appears to decreased!! Its a shame as we have always enjoyed our meals from this take away in the past and always had great service and the delivery is generally always on time. I feel sad that I am writing this review but we will now rethink where we try next.

Had 3 takeaways in a week while we stayed in Seaford from here & they all were excellent. Definitely recommend this place

I stayed at Seaford for a night and went to have a Chinese takeaway since the weather was a bit chilly. They were indeed the happy chefs! Their warm, pleasant vibe was exceptional and made me happy too. The food was super great as well. It was the best Chinese food I've ever eaten at such an affordable price. I would love to try more menus when I revisit Seaford.

The lemon chicken here is fantastic, the guy who complained about it doesn’t know what he’s on about, best Chinese around

Nice food lovely people Chicken balls crispy not oily, salt and pepper ribs and pork chow mein were delicious Service was good people really nice they even threw in I'm prawn crackers will definitely see me again

The food was really good super fast delivery just can't understand why they dont take card payments.

Just ordered a beef chow mein warm and fresh . Nothing wrong with it so no stars deducted . Very clean and lovely service with a smile. Efficient and well priced nothing to complain about would order again

A regular here for many years. Food is superb.

Best in Seaford, Staff always happy and friendly. Food is always very tasty, freshly cooked to order, quick and hot. Never had a bad meal. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely food from here and very reasonably priced we always get our takeaway from here. The staff in store and delivery drivers are so polite and friendly.

Always excellent. Never had any issues. Delicious

Arrived stone cold after waiting an hour lmao

Food is always hot and very tasty

Always great service. Food delicious and piping hot. Will always recommend xx

Not only great great food, but such helpful and smiley staff! It was pouring with rain and they bought the food out to the car for us! Beautiful people, beautiful food X

Average food. Nothing special but food is fresh and hot when delivered.

Great value, prompt service, good portions of well cooked classic Chinese, great pork balls and chat SIU chow mein, never let me down, cash only!

Cheap and delicious :) great variety of dishes available for take out

Fantastic food, allways good service highly recommend,, we have a takeaway once a fortnight and the fabulous lady that delivered it is so nice

great food and very polite staff

Great place definitely coming again. 5 stars

Good Chinese takeaway at a good price. Visit this place fairly regularly and have tried a lot off the menu. Worth giving a go!

Brilliant meal and really great run family business.

Haven't had takeout from here for quite a while and will definitely be using again in future... the best one in town! Recommend the sweet & sour chicken balls and the crispy lemon chicken ... all freshly prepared ..spot on!! 😋👌

Chose here after trying all take aways in town. You can tell it's all cooked fresh, with great flavor and very good prices and portions.

We will not use anywhere else. Sweet and Sour Chicken Balls are excellent.

The best Chinese in town by far. All fresh cooked and done to perfection.

Best in the area, quick quality food

Doesn't stand out compared to other Chinese restaurants however very handy location and seems clean.

If I could give The Happy Chef a 0 star I would. Such a shame, reasonable starter with crispy aromatic duck. However, mains (crispy lemon chicken, chicken and cashew nuts, pork chow mein, Chinese leaves) were appalling. Crispy lemon chicken was basically over cooked kfc served with an orange gel. Chicken and cashew nuts was tasteless - chicken served in warm water, nuts and bland veg. Chow mein was dry, and again tasteless. Similar to the chicken and cashew nuts, the Chinese leaves were tasteless, over cooked and served in warm water. I would strongly recommend avoiding this place. We threw away the majority of the order. Not exactly cheap either!

Supurb Chinese food! I have been using them for 15 years and never had any problems! Always excellent food and service is always with a smile! Very very reasonably priced compared to other in the town too!

Live just down the road, always provides decent food in an emergency hunger situation! Closes earlier than advertised if quiet. Staff are friendly. Only reason I don't give 5 Stars is that don't accept cards!

Absolutely excellent takeaway, the food is amazing and delivery is always prompt, have never had a problem in 5 years. Great job happy chef keep up the good work.
