Been using this takeaway for years but have to say last few times it’s been awful. Cheap meat and all tastes the same. Spent nearly £50 last night for it to go in the bin. Will not be using again

Dropped 1 star, not sure if it's just Saturdays as busy, but a definite noticeable drop off in food quality compared to during the week. No rice or chips with your meal now and same price. Other Chinese takeaways haven't taken this approach.

I'll not visit again. It's very average food, We ordered 2 mains, chicken and beef, a bag of prawn crackers, and paid an extra £5.00 for two portions of plain boiled rice. Just over £22.00. I wish we'd just made a sandwich when we got home. I'll drive for an extra hour to go to Newton-Le-Willows before calling again.

I am absolutely livid. I've just spent over £30 on food that was inedible. Prawn toast overcooked, soggy, chewy, and tasteless.....sweet & sour sauce your usual out of a tub and should really be called sour & sour sauce....... I'm pretty sure the chicken balls were recooked - they were hard and dry, and when I say hard, I mean nearly break your teeth hard.

Can be very hit and miss, one order its amazing the next its poor and the last order really put me off, ordered prawn toast as appetizer and the smell was foul prawns were 100% off. The chips aren't great at the best of times as they're frozen but last order they were hard and seriously undercooked, I don't think I'll be going back, the prawn toast really made me feel sick the smell was horrendous, gutted as when the foods good it's really good 😔

Good Chinese restaurants, nice food, they do deliver for a small cost. If you have to go to the shop, you may have problems in parking but, it's worth the trouble. The price is also right. Recommend.

Last night we had a meal for three.. Probably the worst meal I have ever had. Lemon and Honey Chicken which the sauce just looked like cornflour and water, it was awful. And the other two meals were no better. We will not be going back.

Having used nearly all the Chinese Take outs in St Helens, I always judge against The Oriental. For me, my choice is them. I know other friends in the area differ. Delivery service is normally spot on. Maybe the end of the month (pay day) puts them under a little pressure. Price is competitive. Will keep using them. Well done to the staff.

This was the first time i used this chippy and will be my last. The worst meal ive had or should i say didnt have, as i didnt eat it. The chicken Balls were undercooked as well as mushy inside. Chips awful like warm-ups then thrown into fat again like triple fried. Hard and oily. Rice mushy not firm. Costly meal. Waste of money. The only thing i would say delivery was quick, but now we know why that was. £22.60 to still be hungry. 😠.

Food was missing from my sons order. She argued i hadn't asked for chips immediately. I tried to explain i didn't mind paying extra even though i know i ordered chips with his meal but she was too quick to rush me off the phone. I was prepared to walk back to the takeaway to buy more chips until she became so argumentative i told her do not worry about the chips. You have lost a local regular customer. Shocking service and i know do many people around the area feel the same. Zero*

My experience here was laughable. I ordered salt and pepper chips and banana fritters, when given my chips I asked where my fritters where, she replied “that man that just been in has got them, go and chase after him” .... as if, I left the shop with just my chips and still had to pay for the bloke in fronts banana fritters. Ridiculous. The lady behind the counter needs to find some manners!

Great dining experience. Never been before. 5 adults and 1 junior. Really fast service. Younuse an app to order and you can order up to 6 items at a time. Be careful not to order too much as you can be charged for wastage. Ther3s no limit to how many times you order so there's no need to over order. Starters were really fresh and hot. Mains not so hot .Definitely could have been hotter but because we were ordering for 6 maybe order less and just keep ordering. Desserts OK, apart from.the chocolate sauce which tasted really chemically. Ice cream lovely. Staff were really attentive and couldn't have been more helpful. One of our party got everything free because it was her birthday. She had to.ahow proof of it being her birthday eg driving licence. I think you can attend a week.beforw or up to a week after your actual birthday. Will definitely go again Thank you

Still the best Chinese in St Helens after years and years. The quality of the food is always up to standard, especially the salt and pepper ribs / fried rice! The food is near enough home cooked, with two members of staff a wife and a husband. I commend them both for upholding the shop together, looking after the little one and making great food consistently! Don’t look anywhere else.

We had ordered around 7:30pm, fell asleep, woke up at 10pm and we rang as we had obviously missed the delivery. They were very understanding and had fresh food to us in 20 minutes! Amazing service, unreal food. Couldn't fault them. Would recommend👏🏻
