Can’t understand the really bad reviews, just collected my order and good was as good as I’ve had from any other Chinese takeaways in Preston.

1 STAR is being far too kind. Tonight I have ordered the most in edible food from The Ruby in Preston. How can food that feels and looks like it has been refried several times be sold to customers. I wouldn't even let my dog eat it. Lesson learnt to always check food ratings before ordering food. Never again will I order from here. The chicken wings where rock hard and you couldn't bite into them because of the thick dry layer of batter. The best was to describe this food is something you would pick out of KFCs bin.

My food was almost 3 hours late order duck and pancakes no spring onion and no pan cakes food was very flat and bland and they also gor the orders wrong I can say it was the worst Chinese I've had and the almost hour wait was very disappointing

Quite possibly one of the worst Chinese meals I have ever had the displeasure of tasting. overpriced tasteless, greasy and dry. On entering the premises I should have realised it was going to be bad, after slipping on the greasy floor your greeted by a dirty curtain that looks like it’s been up a lifetime covering the kitchen, so you can’t see in

Food, amazing. Delivery, absolutely horrendous. Only two lads working in the shop and one delivery driver, so they just can't get the orders out. If you want to eat here, collection only is a must.

***WARNING*** ⚠ DO NOT PLACE ORDERS WITH THIS RESTAURANT.... placed a large order online food hub, payment was taken but food never arrived, phoned Ruby when the order was 2.5 hours late but ust kept saying 'it's on the way' eventually after 3 hours I phoned to cancel but of course they was having none of this and claimed I could not cancel the order. Obviously it never arrived and they never answered the phone to me again. contacted both Ruby and food hub the day after but neither seem interested and only offered a petty £4 voucher towards the costs of over £100. Absolutely disgusting.

Avoid this place at all costs! Ordered food at 7pm by 9:30 no food arrived. We contacted restaurant after just eat said it had been delivered. We were answered by a very rude man, absolutely no customer service whatsoever. Explaing it was still cooking considering we phoned an hour prior and he said the same thing, still cooking. Clearly had not checked our order number for a real update. We told him to cancel the order and asked for refund he then started screaming down the phone to say he doesn't do refunds and to context justeat. Luckily justeat issued our refund. But after reading upon the place sounds like this is a recurring problem with this takeaway place not even worthy of 1 star.

Placed the order and had to make two calls to the outlet and each time it was on its way!! The guy on the phone was abusive with me and the service was shocking. I got a knock on the door 4 HOURS later. Waste of time just don't bother.

I ordered through big foodies, when it arrived, the complete order was wrong . Not only wrong but what did arrive was foul. I contacted big foodies, who advised me to contact the outlet direct and was met with arrogant staff who stated they sent out the correct food. Let me tell all. I will not use big foodie again nor will I use the RUBY CHINESE TAKEAWAY PRESTON either. .... I expect better from anywhere.

Our usual chinese take away was shut so decided to try Ruby's again after a few years away. We remembered it being fairly decent. Well we won't be going there again. Everything was grey, didn't look appetising and the chicken in my sweet and sour Chicken was as tough as old boots. And to top it off it was fecking expensive for what it was. Won't be going back again

Third visit in person. Can't fault the food, noodles salt and pepper chicken and chips, waited no more than 10 minutes whilst sat in the car. Very hot and tasty.

Absolutely fuming, we spent £32 on a takeaway last night, food tasted ok, but my husband a few hours b later woke up in absolute agony, hes been throwing up most of night with awful griping pains, obviously food poisoning.. I will be contacting them later and if we don't get our money back i will bw calling the health authority.

Orders my foot with the just eat app. Driver deliverd the wrong order. Tried to call the shop but no one answered so I was left with a completely different order . Paid £24 got a £5 meal. If the shop won't take calls, how can they put right what went wrong..won't be going back.

I placed the order at 6:10pm with the food due to arrive at 7:30. This time came and went with no update. After contacting just eat we heard the food was now due at 8:15. The food didn't turn up until after 8:30. Tried to call the restaurant multiple times but went straight to a full voicemail, I suspect they turned their phone off due to everyone trying to complain about late orders. When food finally did arrive it was only okay. Will not be ordering from here again

Absaloutly disgrace of a takeaway, ordered food at 5.45pm ready for "7.25" still waiting at 8.15pm, called the takeaway said driver was out, bearing in mind that the takeaway is les than 2 miles away, called again and the guy puts the phone down on me. Only used it as tasty Chinese wasn't taking orders, will never be using again.

Food was very good. The only reason I've marked it down is that when you see the restaurant on Just Eat, you expect that they are able to deliver to my area... however an hour after ordering I received a call saying that they cant deliver to me. Understandable to some extent as I live in Kirkham, but If they cant deliver to somewhere, it shouldn't be in the list. But yes, otherwise the food was excellent and were it nearer, I'd order from here more often. Recommended if you live closer.

Absilute rubbish!! Ordered via just eat. Waited two hours before delivery. This was on a "quiet weekday" not weekend!! Food was freezing and burned! One star is being generous!!

Risked going here due to previous reviews but that was a mistake. Was very ill a few hours after eating here, wouldn't recommend.

APPALLING!!!! The entire meal was over cooked, ( several times) stodgy, and completely inedible! The rice we ordered did not arrive and when I called to complain I was told to return the food - 10 miles - and it was clearly just not to my taste! £30:00 straight in the bin!! AVOID! ( unless you don't like good food and you have money to burn of course)! The lovely people who delivered it were very nice.

Took nearly 3 hours to arrive after being told several times it was on its way. We didn't receive free prawn crackers after being told they would give us freebies we just got some chop sticks!! Food was cold and tasted awful what a waste of money! Wouldn't use again.

Yo, best proper Chinese place in Preston. If you eat at a buffet you've made a huge mistake. If you're staying at the Holiday Inn, you're literally 2 minutes away. They'll have food fresh off the wok ready to smash before the hotel bartender has finished filling the pint you ordered.

For a cafe offering meals I find it bizarre that routinely no food is readily available, always the case that there's some coming. It appears they rely on bringing the food centrally to them in which case this is a poor management of resources to not order quickly enough to keep a supply forthcoming. Which in a hospital a regular supply of people is a given, it seems this is a shock to them. Just not got a clue at all any of them.

Driver can’t be bothered to knock just gave a call and left without delivering pizza called the shop and manager was asking me to either come to collect or 50 percentage refund but loose my delivery charge. Never again from this place order food at 12 30 pm on Sunday 17th November 2024 can’t remember the name of manager but she was really rude and unhelpful
