The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Chinese food

Awful Ordering through an open window which you need to duck under, cash only, signs everywhere to watch for sharp glass. Food over cooked tasteless, Chicken fried rice dark brown, over cooked, hardly any chicken, it had just opened food presented in 10mins no way this was cooked fresh. Chips looked and tasted like they had been cooked more than once, curry sauce hot but no flavour and for three simple dishes expensive. Will not be back ever.

Great place to eat, food fresh and very tasty, only down side was a cold draft coming through the place

Amazing chicken balls and egg fried rice. Stevo and Susan loved the food One downside is the children answering the phone but they do a good job and the food distracts me from the downsides

Waited 40 min to get my order wrong 🤔was a walk. Ithey kept telling pp on phone half hour that's a joke and curry taste of. Burnt not impressed

Used Jade Garden many times in the past and enjoyed the meals. Ordered our usual meal last week and it was very disappointing. The ribs were chewy and the main meal was rather tasteless. Sorry but I will be looking elsewhere in future.

Poor. Late delivery. Cold food. But helpful food awful. Called and unhelpful service. Wouldn’t recommend at all. Taking on too many deliveries

We always got our takeaway from the New Mandarin when they were in Shenley and always thought they were the best, then they had the fire and closed , we tried several other takeaways and then found the New Mandarin were at the Countryman Pub in New Bradwell and went there, the first time back well before Xmas was fine, but we went yesterday (for a takeaway) 10/2/2024 we had half a duck the portion looking much smaller than it used to be, but as it happened it was supposed to feed 2 but when i saw the green on some of the pieces of duck i did not want to eat it, my partner who has no sense of taste or smell picked out the green bits and ate his half of the portion, luckily he has not been ill but i have lots of digestive problems and i think i would have had a reaction. I am posting a phot to show the green bits picked out. As it was Chinese New Year there were a lot of Chinese dining there i bet they didn't have green meet, also since Covid the prices of a lot of things have nearly doubled whilst the portions are smaller.

Having used Riverside regularly for over 40 years under different ownerships I was left disgusted this evening when I went to collect our pre-ordered takeaway, I waited at the hatch with my bank card in full view, the young lady behind the counter served everyone around me then totally ignored my self before walking back into the kitchen. I held my card up to her to indicate that I was waiting to be served but was still ignored. The final straw was when another customer came in and she immediately went to serve them and carried on ignoring me. I told her quite clearly to forget our order, she tried to apologise and make out that she hadn't realised that I was waiting but that was a feeble excuse having stood at the hatch for 10 minutes with my bank card in full view of her. The sad thing is that the food from Riverside is usually of an excellent quality and there is plenty of it - but if they wish to retain custom then their standard of customer service needs to greatly improve, locals talk to locals and Riverside would do well to remember that.

Fantastic meals,hidden jem,hard to find,up above a carpet shop,went Xmas eve with family was excellent, have been a few times since and just as good,I right my review after having a takeaway,which was just as good.

Had a Singapore curry it was delicious 😋 lovely egggried rice and chips thanks mayflower

Main courses 10-£13 really good value and friendly staff kids menu £6 tasty pub food highly recommend We will be regulars now

My husband just got 2 salt and pepper boxes and chips and gravy. And a curry sauce for £30! The salt and pepper boxes are a joke! £11 for a small box of soggy chips with 3/4 equally soggy bits of battered chicken. Absolute rip off!! Won't be going again.

This was terrible food! Sweet and sour pork was thick batter,tough and dry pork,the sweet and sour sauce was awful, nothing like it should be ! Shocking! The Beef fried rice was disgusting couldnt eat it as it smelled and tasted BURNT!! Absolutely disgusting! Went to the bin!! Chow mein wasnt great either! Lets say the foxes will have a great meal on our way through the counrty roads as we didn't. Awfull will never ever go back and I would advise anyone else to stay far clear of this awfull food.

Got an order last night and the chicken balls were still pink in the middle

Really lovely place. I made an unfortunate accident and ordered from the wrong place which was in a different part of Colchester, but the staff were really kind and just put my order through again and cancelled the other one. Delicious food and just all round great service.
