The best restaurants serving Asian food in Oxford South East

The waiter was lovely and friendly, the courses were served quickly and to say the food was delicious is an understatement. I lived in China and ever since coming back to England, I haven't been able to find any food that compares to what I had over there, but this has changed that. If you're looking for an authentic Chinese food experience at a restraunt with a diverse menu, welcoming atmosphere and all with affordable prices, this is it.

Located in Oxford's Ozone Leisure Park, Oxy Oriental is an all-you-can-eat buffet that offers a broad spread of Asian cuisines, including Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Malaysian, and Indian dishes. It's a popular spot for casual dining, especially for those craving variety under one roof. The restaurant boasts a generous selection of dishes—from dumplings, teriyaki chicken, and sushi to crispy duck and sweet treats—catering to both adventurous eaters and those after more familiar flavours. In the evenings, the live teppanyaki station and sushi bar add a touch of theatre and freshness to the experience. However, food quality can be hit-or-miss. While many enjoy the range and fast turnover (especially at busier times), others have commented that some items feel overly greasy, bland, or of lower quality. The atmosphere is functional rather than fancy—often likened to a canteen or warehouse setting, with dim lighting and basic furnishings. Where Oxy Oriental shines is in its value for money. With lunch priced under £7 and dinner (offering more variety) around £15, it’s an appealing choice for families, groups, or anyone looking for a hearty, budget-friendly meal. That said, whether it’s “worth it” depends on how much you value quantity over quality. Verdict: If you’re after a no-frills, buffet-style Asian meal with plenty of choice and aren’t too fussed about fine dining, Oxy Oriental hits the mark. Just temper your expectations when it comes to quality and ambience.

Absolutamente impresionante comida como de costumbre. Un poco amargo con respecto a la máquina de tarjetas. Me faltaban £ 5 (culpa mía) pero hicieron que fuera tan difícil usar su máquina de tarjetas. En el futuro, deje que la gente use su máquina de tarjetas

I dined hear last night. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by a young lady with a fantastic attitude and a smile to match. I ordered the Thai green curry and a beer. I was warned that the curry would be spicy—one of the spiciest dishes on the menu. And it certainly was! But it was also absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant as a must-visit when in Oxford. — G.B.

Kimchi, steamed fish, aubergine pot, stir fry cabbage, kimchi pancake, soy bean paste tofu stew Absolutely fantastic! No frills, great food. Best kimchi I’ve ever had. Silky steamed fish. Kimchi pancake was a crowd favourite. Cabbage was surprisingly flavourful. Aubergine was authentically (weirdly similar to) Chinese Tofu stew was lacking, the tofu was not soft (per previous experience) but the broth was warm and comforting Had quite a few Chinese dishes on the menu My friend devoured his bbq pork
