Wollaston Chinese Takeaway in Wellingborough

I really enjoyed the carvery. Very good for the cost

Group meal in February with prebooked starters & main meals. No table service & only a small bar (limited choices) which was up a steep set of 8 steps. Restaurant area is in a modern addition & pleasant with accessible toilets. Long table set up for our group was in a raised area up three steps & with tired & dated Christmas flowers & valentines menu scrolls along the tables. The high back chairs were tired & due to the worn out padding were low & we sat on our coats! Out of our group everyone enjoyed their starters. There was a lengthy pause between all courses despite pre ordering. Main meals were not very warm & plates cold. It would have taken forever to reheat all & we didnt want to make a fuss at someones birthday. With varied meal choices about 50:50 enjoyed main meal. Lamb Shank at a pricey £24 was ok but could have been hotter and was the only meal with decent portions of vegetables. Complaints about pizzas which were completely tasteless. Not even a cheese taste. We all had a bite! The deserts were ok, the creme brulee was an odd cold cream rather than an egg custard base & hadnt been anywhere near an oven. Coffees had grains in the bottom & was quite bitter. The service was non existent with servers whilst polite was literally to deliver meals & clear plates & not in a timely fashion & without a drinks table service. Nothing refined or of quality here, & so the automatic addition of a 10% service charge was a cheek to be honest & we didnt pay it all. We were never once even asked if our meal courses were ok. If you are going to promote yourself as a "Restaurant" then provide a restaurant standard waiting service & not a "chain pub service". Dont know who chose the cutlery & plates but the cutlery handles were weird & not comfortable & We felt sorry for the staff clearing tables as the plates were ridiculously heavy but may have saved staff from going to the Gym!! Overall food was ok & mostly reasonably priced, but we definitely wouldn't bother again.

Decided to try a different Indian takeaway as they were offering 40% off on just eat. What a regret. It was an hour late and saying it had been delivered on the app so we had to call and check in. Can normally get past a late delivery if the food is nice. My rogan josh didn't resemble the colour at all, instead of a reddish colour it was more yellow, very watery. Tasted like nothing. No flavour at all. The onion bhajis were more like supermarket ones and nothing like the homemade ones you'd normally receive from a curry house. I had a cheese nan bread. Incredibly thin and couldn't see or taste any cheese within in. My husbands korma at least had flavour but wasn't nice, chicken was chewy and spicey. Not what you'd expect in a korma. His perswari nan was like Chewing gum in his words. I don't like to leave negative reviews and I like them to be fair and true but honestly would not recommend and will certainly not be returning.

Absolutely disgusting I was eating my pizza and found a bug 🤢🤢

Tried to book a table for 2 and it says fully booked until 1945. So I tried to book for 2000 and it says fully booked until 2200. Re-entered for 1830 today and it again says fully booked until 1945 BUT YOU CANNOT BOOK A TABLE AT ANY TIME.Perhaps as well it’s closing down soon!
