Food is OK little over priced for what it was meal felt rushed as we were told had to vacate the table by certain time, service was good but was different with other member of staff one was friendly and one was not so friendly. Little cramped inside and lighting was too dim. Overall its a OK place if you like Chinese Aromatic Duck is nice!!

We hadn’t been out for a full Chinese meal in years and this was pretty good. Soft shell crab starter was a new thing for us to try and it was a success. Yuk sung chicken however was a big disappointment and almost all veg . The best main was prawns in a Korean sauce, the others all quite acceptable. It was a good evening, not too noisy and price wise good value.

Taking the recommendation from one of my neighbours, I booked a table for my family. I had to wait two weeks to get the space for four people on Friday evening. There was no question of food and its quality. However, the food price and service charges made me realise why they have regular customers. It is a worth trying restaurant in Oadby but bear in mind it may not be a regular place to visit for many people.

Ordered takeaway to celebrate my wife’s 80th birthday. Unfortunately they were so busy we had to book takeaway 2 days prior to birthday ! Guess that speaks for itself 😀 My 80th birthday was celebrated in similar style four months ago. Both meals were ready on time for collection and were absolutely delicious. Portions were generous ( had enough to use next day ) In these Covid times it was the only way to celebrate with a meal. Alan and team are very friendly and helpful , and have no hesitation in recommending Yum Sing 😀😀

This is honestly THE BEST Cantonese food I've ever had, and defo on my top 3 most favourite foods I've EVER tasted. I would highly recommend Yum Sing. I had sweet 'n' sour chicken with egg fried rice, the coated chicken was delicious and had an amazing texture, as well the scrumptious sauce which was perfectly not too sweet. The egg fried rice was AMAZING and complementary to all the tastes from the chicken. Consistently good, even for take-away!!! All round⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!!

Some of the best service in a restaurant as it was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. This restaurant is on the smaller side so really adds to that personal service feel and there was a great atmosphere for a mid week evening out. We will definitely be back.

If you want a top class meal with excellent customer service then a visit to this small restaurant is a must. We opted for the 4 course set menu @£35pp, The food was fantastic, we couldn’t eat it all so the manager asked if we wanted to box it up and take it away. The home made deserts were excellent. This is not the cheapest restaurant in the area, but the place is spotless, the foods excellent and all of the staff are so friendly, we will definitely be returning.

Brilliant place! Came here as a group of 7, with 2 vegetarians. They allowed us to order the set menu but they adapted it and brought out specific vegetarian dishes separate from the meat ones but kept the same price! Lots of food for the price, and they let us take the leftovers in a bag as there was so much lovely food but we couldn't finish it all! Excellent, friendly staff and lovely warm atmosphere. I'd say it's the best of its genre in Leicester, and I'd absolutely recommend it to everyone!

It seems Chinese food is a little out of fashion these days.. with the rise of so many other cuisines to choose from. If you want good Chinese food in Leicester....look no further, that's if you can get a table, it's very busy... I asked for a takeaway at first, but they only do one maybe two takeaways a night.. as they want focus on the restaurant. (How refreshing to hear) We managed to get a table for two at short notice and we were on a time limit as the table had been booked for later. The place isn't massive but it was full and lively... staff are warm & friendly. Sesame Toast & Spare Ribs for starters followed by King Prawn (Ming Style) and Chicken (Szechuan style) I have to say every course was cooked to perfection and ingredients are all quality. I doubt you could find better anywhere in Leicestershire. I highly recommend this place. Anyone who has read other reviews I written will know I don't always give 5 stars... only if it's deserved.

Overpriced restaurant with very old décor. The duck is very good and the chilli sauce is delicious but I find the staff very rude, the service is awful. They only do 2 sittings for dinner, 6:30pm (way too early) and 9pm (a bit too late) and so you're always rushed and reminded that the table is only for 2 hours. The main dishes are nothing to rave about and it's very inconsistent. Definitely a much better idea to get a Chinese takeaway (it'll save you money and disappointment)!

We went here as a group of 4 on a Friday night. We booked a bit late and were able to get a table at 9.15pm. Despite the late booking we didn’t feel rushed at all and were encouraged to take our time as the kitchen won’t be closed until all guests confirm they do not wish to order anything. As someone who was only in Leicester for the weekend I thought this was a nice touch, as in London this would never happen.In terms of decor, it’s a bit dated but that’s not to say it’s bad. I guess it reminded me of why I used to see when I went out for a Chinese back in the 90’s.The staff in general were very friendly, and attentive. Our waitress was happy to discuss the flavours we liked and make recommendations accordingly. There was one waitress who was s but moody but having interacted with 4 different staff members, I’m putting the one moody one down to her maybe having an off day, as the others were great.The food was good. I would not say I was amazed but it was a good standard overall.It was a tad pricey but I think this is considered upper end in Leicester so with that in mind it wasn’t too bad I guess.Overall, I would definitely recommend.

We visited on a busy saturday evening, place still needs abit of brightening up, still dark inside. Service was not so great, we all visited for the first time so we were unsure what to order. The lady who took our order recommended a few dishes when we had asked, but some of the things she said we could not understand. Starters we ordered the yuk sing with chicken and lettuce this had no flavour and full of celery pieces!! The garlic prawns were good. We received our mains thereafter but it wasn’t what we had ordered. Mains we had the lamb, which was full of flavour very tasty, we also ordered sweet & sour chicken which we thought lacked flavour. The vegetarian noodles were okay. It seems the other tables next to us were not happy with the service too, staff are not friendly and welcoming. Another waiter she would not even smile. The bill arrived and we realised there was a service charge which is always discretionary we don’t have to pay, but the man at the counter did not mention anything. For the service we received we didn’t want to pay the service charge. It is pricey for what you pay. You would expect better quality in food. We won’t be returning anytime soon am afraid.

We had vegan yuk sung and chili potatoes to start, which were both delicious, then an aubergine and a mushroom xo main with chlli rice. All cooked well with great flavour and fresh. Would highly recommended this place, can't believe it's been there 30yrs and I've only just found out about it!!

This place is vastly over rated and lives on its previous good reputation. I have not been for a while and revisited recently. I have to say the food is at best average. The service is not the best, the waitress seemed like she wanted us to get the hell out so she could go home and even though we clearly hadn’t finished eating seemed to want to clear our table. The prices are extortionate, best described as a rip off. In my opinion, there are far far better Chinese restaurants on high street in town where the quality of food is better, the service is good and the prices are better.

We got in expecting good things and first off the drinks order came wrong which we excepted but then when our main course came they got the rice dish incorrect which we then had to wait for while they made the correct rice and our main dishes where getting cold, it took another member of staff to notice we was still waiting and after all this when the bill came we had a charge on there under others which when we questioned was told it was a service charge , how can then charge a service charge when the service was poor and also put it on there with out even telling us !!!!! To me I think It’s optional to leave a tip but to just put it on like that is awful and to put it on as others is wrong . I will NOT be going back and I will make sure others are aware of this as well

We booked a table at 18:00 as we were at the theatre at 19:45 and wanted to eat beforehand. The lady that greeted us on arrival couldn’t grasp that we had booked and another lady pointed to some seats for us to sit at. Eventually the order was taken. The starters (mixed hors-d’oeuvres) turned up and were very dry as they had no sauce with them. We then waited a while and the first half of our mains arrived and were like warm. We started to eat these as we didn’t want them to get any colder. When a waitress came by we asked about the missing dishes and she didn’t seem to care. We were about to leave and just pay for what we had received when our final dish arrived. Our evening was spoiled by this. My advice is to avoid this restaurant if you want good service.

A Culinary Delight: Exceptional Dining Experience I recently had the pleasure of dining at Chef and Spice for a family function, and I must say, it was an experience to remember. From the moment we stepped in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the stage for what turned out to be a culinary journey beyond expectation. The food at Chef and Spice was nothing short of exceptional. Each dish was crafted with care and attention to detail, resulting in flavors that danced on the palate. The starters, in particular, were a highlight of the evening. The chicken starter, in all its glory, stood out with its perfect seasoning and tantalising texture. Every bite was a revelation, leaving me eager for more. Moving on to the main course, the curries were simply divine. The tender meat, bathed in rich, flavorful sauces, was a testament to the chef's expertise. Each curry boasted a unique blend of spices that elevated the dish to new heights. And let's not forget about the side dishes and accompaniments, which complemented the mains perfectly, adding depth and variety to the meal. But beyond the exquisite food, what truly set Chef and Spice apart was the impeccable service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every need was met, making us feel welcome and valued throughout the evening. Their attentiveness and professionalism added an extra layer of enjoyment to an already memorable dining experience. In conclusion, my visit to Chef and Spice was nothing short of a culinary delight. From the mouthwatering starters to the sumptuous main courses, every aspect of the meal was executed with precision and flair. If you're looking for an exceptional dining experience that tantalises the taste buds and leaves you craving more, look no further than Chef and Spice cannot recommend it highly enough. Please note: The dishes were cooked specially for our function.

We had a takeaway from this company at the Driffield show on 13/08/22. The people were friendly & we had an excellent tasty meal, Tempura vegetables, Vegetable spring rolls, sweet & sour chicken, chicken in black bean sauce with noodles. It is a pity that you are not nearer as we would have another meal from you, but hope to visit when in the area. Would certainly recommend

The food here is very good and has a good homely taste and is fuss free. It always has a consistent taste, never too mild or spicy. For this reason I went over to place an order for food I’d be taking away with me 2 days later for a trip to Wales with my wife. I explained what I wanted and then reminded them of a previous order I’d made of lentil curry with rice- which again was for a trip away from home. I had told them on this occasion to make sure they wrap the foil container with cling film to prevent spillage on the journey. On the day, they had not done as I had kindly asked and lo and behold the lentil curry had spilt out although we had tried our best to prevent this by placing it securely in a bag. Today when I reminded the staff of this the owner came rushing to the front really confrontational and with a lack of customer service or respect exclaiming that they don’t have any foil or cling film (hard to believe considering it’s a local takeaway) that’s like saying a garage doesn’t have a spanner! Anyway the owner denied having any foil or cling film in the premises and it’s not their responsibility to ensure food doesn’t get spilled. It may not be a responsibility but is definitely part of providing good customer service to repeat local customers who give you their custom regularly. The young lads are friendly but the owner is a grumpy guy, standard chef behaviour!
