The food is disgusting, undercooked, covered in salt! Sweet and sour prawns just watery no flavour. I wouldn’t recommend this place. The customer service is also appalling I contacted them and they refuse to help. Don’t waste your money.

Food quality very very very poor. Not usually our number 1 but we gave it a try. But feel really let down. Looks and tastes old and just badly cooked. Poor food Not sure I'll be trying it again

Not ordering from here again. After over an hour, rang up to see where the order is and was told on the way. Considering my house is only 10minutes away it took another half hour. Food arrive barely warm, for a salt and pepper box it lacked seasoning and the satay chicken was just curry sauce..

Tongues through just eat took my money but flu didn’t get any food for it. This was because I cancelled they didn’t deliver and said I ordered pick up which was untrue. I am a disabled veteran and always order deliver. So paying for something and getting nothing for it I am sure is theft and will report it to local authorities as such. We only used to get it because it was only Chinese in this area for just eat. Expensive and cold

Ordered the salt & pepper chicken last week and I’m on day 4 of suffering with food poisoning and off work! I hope standards get better within the shop so no one has to deal with what I have, food wasn’t even flavourful. Shocking.

I can't comment on the chippy but the Chinese food is better then most places I've tried it's not amazing but it's good, the sesame prawn toast is the best I've tried, nice big crispy pieces. Although I've not scored this place very hight I do enjoy the food but it's just nothing special there's no wow factor but for takeaway Chinese food this is probably the best places this side of bolton.

Honestly The Best Chinese takeaway in Bolton. I ordered off Just Eat . The food was cooked to perfection. This is the only place I will order a Chinese meal from after suffering a terrible Chinese meal from another place on a Tuesday when Tongs was closed. Also the delivery driver is always polite. Thank you everyone who works here. We Appreciate your service .

Sorry to say but after numerous meals over the last many years last night the food was absolutely disgusting. It was clearly reheated from a previous occasion and will most certainly be the last ever.

Honestly ordered £35 worth of food ate few mouthfuls. Pro arrived quickly staff polite and pleasant, chips were OK, seaweed was nice Cons Tasted like oil never been changed Batter on sweet and sour balls, wonton, & spring rolls rock hard literally couldn't cut it had so much grease it was literally dripping & went through 5 layers of paper Sweet & sour sauce was watered down & bland worst I've ever tasted Ribs were dry & overcooked so disappointed. It had 4 stars from 1500 reviews how? In this economy not for leaving bad reviews but genuinely was awful

Ordered a special chow mien and spat my first mouth full out, it must of had at least 10-12 ladles of salt in it, I’ve never tasted anything like it, sea salt in your mouth whilst swimming is less saltier, avoid at all costs.

Having used this Chinese take away several times I don’t find the staff very friendly at all ? Special curry is dire far too salty and fashioned what they put in two large prawns three chicken pieces two pork and that’s it not the best special curry .

What a waste of £15.00, worse chinese ive ever had , if that what is was as there was no chinese taste flavoring!! Salt and Pepper chicken wings were not crispy, they were very rubbery and gristly, no chinese taste to them or spicy salt and pepper and not even any garlic!!!!! Might as well have been soggy bland chicken nuggets from Mcdonalds for 2 quid! I am definately gonna stick with my regular chinese but unfortunately they are not open on Mondays so have tried a few others but this is the worse. These places need to be shut down as they charge ridculous prices for such rubbish food!!!

Never fail. Before, in-between and after lock down. Ordered four times. Every meal can not fault. non greasy. Do not have a lot of take outs, but when we do, this is the one. Very tasty, not expensive and on time. wish they were open the day our friends called, unexpected, ordered else where, rubbish. Well done, keep it up.

Totally disgusting took nearly 3 hours to arrive when ordered on just eat. Called the restaurant directly to be repeatedly told the driver was on his way. Food arrived and was awful ordered egg fried rice and it contained 1 tiny peice of egg 🙄. Suffered the whole day after with crippling stomach pains, my 5 Yr old kept vomiting and my partner to. The only person not affected was my 7yr old which evidently did not eat any of the takeaway.

Our first visit here on recommendation from a few. Thought we’d give it a try never again terrible! Rubbery chicken which really didn’t taste like chicken, cold chips and salt and pepper chips which were just like normal chips ! No taste ! The sauce that the dishes were in was very bland! Never again very disappointed!!

Recommended to us by a Chinese friend. The prices were reasonable and the food very tasty. On our first visits , we collected collect the take-away. No problems at all and the staff are lovely. Our last 2 meals were ordered for delivery. Sadly late both times, although the food was still just as tasty as every. If you are going to order, allow an extra 30-minutes, it is definitely worth it for this food.

First time ordering from here, we chose to collect, order was waiting which is good. Duck came off the bone, but was very nice. Salt & pepper wings very nice and tasty. Prawn curry contained plenty king prawns and was very tasty, chicken curry the same. Rice was nice. Overall couldn't fault anything, would definitely visit again soon.

I spent £17 on an order of 4 simple items, the 'salt and pepper chicken nuggets' were so extremely soggy that the batter had turned white, they were thrown on top of greasy onions with no spice or flavouring. The 'salt and pepper chips' were also extremely soggy with no spice/ flavouring and no pepper. The satay chicken was tasteless. The food arrived 30 minutes early however it was freezing cold. The whole £17 order is now in the bin after an upsetting phone call with the rude 'manager' who refused a refund and wouldn't allow me to bring the order back into the restaurant for them to review. Absolutely disgusting.

The food was freezing cold when it arrived and totally inedible! The salt and pepper chicken and chips were soggy with no flavouring just a bed of soggy onions. The manageress was extremely rude and refused to rectify the problem when we phoned her. The entire "meal" went straight into the bin. Total waste if £17. Never again!

After placing an order, we were called back to make sure it was us... to make sure we were a genuine customer, we have been many times in this takeaway tonight we have decided to have Home delivery, the lady who we spoke several times in the past rang back. They wanted to make sure we were serious about our order. After a long time on the phone trying to convince her we were waiting for the delivery she says she will send the delivery man 1st to check the address and people living in before she could send the food over. I have never been asked so many questions before. I am sorry to say this but I will never come back to them again. Tongs has lost a customer tonight.

Food was good BUT was made very expensive with 10% service charge, food was just brought out from the kitchen. No extra service. I always leave a tip but don’t like being dictated to with service charge. It was just OK but feel like it was a rip off with the charge. Will not be going again.

Tried their sweet and sour pork Cantonese style and fried rice. Tried the spareribs too. Everything was very authentic, tasty, and delicious. Piping hot when I got the food. They even gave me a bag of complimentary prawn crackers. Their service was friendly and prompt. Will definitely be back when I’m in the area.
