The Orient in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

very nice food , great choice on the menu , particularly recommend the beef curry and the sweet and sour chicken balls . friendly staff good service

We have tried the food from this place twice as a change to our usual local chinese, both times the food was ok but nothing special. The menu doesn’t have much of a selection and the whole place could do with a revamp! We went back a third time in case we had just simply picked a bad day the other times and boy we were in for a shock!! This ocassion in particular we ordered and decided to sit and wait for a change, big mistake! We discovered that the waiting area was completely infested with ants like I’ve never seen before. On bringing this to the counter staffs attention they were not bothered by it at all. We collected our food once it was handed to us and immediately put it in the bin further up the street, if the waiting area was like that god knows what lurks in the kitchen!! I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE

Omg stay away the food didn't even look like a chinease take away ,looked terrible,smelt bad,and after just one mouthful put the whole lot in the bin.as I was waiting for it to be cooked I saw the chef scoop the noodles out with his HAND and throw it in the wok, should have said somthing at the time but seeing the other reviews and that they are 2 star rating told me they dont care .didn't see a food hygenie rating displayed and the shop had a look online. looked old dirty and tiles were off the wall NEVER EVER AGAIN how are they still open?

Mejor comida china muy recomendable la carne curry es increíble sin duda vale la pena probarlo si estás en la zona

Si me apetece una comida para llevar china curry es el único para mí y especial de arroz es el mejor. Puedes llamar a tu orden celebró así que no tienes que esperar

If you are just after a quick takeaway then this is fine- but it's quite average. The portion sizes are good and it was ready for collection after we had phoned ahead. It's just a bit different in flavours to what you would expect.

good potions nice food all the right in grins but not cooked like the chinse do prices are fair and doubles as a taxi place staff are friendly helpful

Good service but disappointing food. It may have been an off evening - the staff certainly knew the food and and understood about MSG and so on ..... maybe deserves another try! Since moving to Cornwall we miss good Chinese food!!
