The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Lincoln East Midlands

We keep returning to this Chinese takeaway because the food is consistently of excellent quality. It's never greasy or overly salty, which sets it apart from others we've tried. Despite having closer options, its worth the trip for collection.

After 'The New Sunflower' fell off, This Takeaway became a new Favourite of ours. Consistently Great Food & Service 💯🎯

Travelled from London, hungry, cold, wet. The mood immediately changed upon tasting the food. Absolutely beautiful 😍. The Crab meat and sweetcorn soup Was tasty.Beef in black bean sauce with rice and prawn chow mein bursting with flavour; piping hot. Not forgetting the chicken wings 😋 10/10. Customer service is also lovely. Highly recommend.

Best Chinese takeaway in Lincoln. We first ordered at the beginning of lockdown when everything else was closed. So pleased we did! The quality is amazing! Ordered from here about five times now and its always delicious! It's slightly more expensive than other takeaways, but for us totally worth it! Salt and pepper squid is amazing, as is the sweet and sour chicken... as are the ribs.. and the curry... I could go on! The quality of the meat is great. Will only order from here from now on.

Large portions, piping hot and very tasty

A group of us went this Saturday and I was a bit apprehensive after looking at the reviews. I need not have worried though as the Service and Food were Excellent. We were booked for 6.30pm so didn't wait as long as others I guess. Would definitely recommend The Phoenix 🙏

Just had such a good takeaway this evening that I wanted to review the restaurant straight away. Really good quality food at a very reasonable price. The salt and pepper chicken is especially tasty and the prawn toast which was so fresh and had lots of whole prawns on top. Will definitely be ordering again!

We have been using New Sunflower for probably 30 years and have always had great food. Of late, we have always had the same mains (66 Sweet and Sour Chicken Hong Kong Style and 83 Mixed Meat Hot with King Do Sauce) delicious and recommended! I don't understand the 1 star ratings

Massive chunks of carrots, onions and celery and i mean the size of a golf ball or bigger subbing meat for veg - very clever to bulk (big allergy and not stated on menu for this dish like others) compared to tiny slither strips of meat, the chow mein is dry and doesnt come with beansprouts or sauce, more veg than anything else, mongolian lamb full of bones yet again should state this on menu as may include bones. had half onion in curry, again full of carrot, onion and celery. salt and chilli chips is not what other takeaways are selling - plain chips with tiny slithers of chillis, no taste of the proper salt and pepper chips with the seasoning, onions peppers, spring onions that are out there at all, chow mein needs to have the sauce i cant emphasise enough as its just plain noodles with no taste

I’m not normally one to leave reviews, but this was GORGEOUS! We were going to go to a usual chain restaurant but thought we’d try somewhere authentic and independent, and I’m so glad we did- I had Chinese while my husband had Japanese, and our toddler had both (firstly, very accommodating for letting us do that). The Chinese was just unreal- I’ve tried many across the county and it was the best I’ve had. The duck in plum sauce was amazing and the egg fried rice was a highlight actually, such a staple has left me thinking about it several days later🥲 all the staff were so kind and friendly to a pair of very anxious diners and a grumpy/sleepy toddler (even bringing him a special little complimentary dish without us having to ask) and I’m very glad I’ll be studying in Lincoln and able to regularly support them. It’s such a big space too! I had no idea, a real hidden gem and I’ll be encouraging everyone I know to give it a try.

Sadly bad communication between management and staff . As we felt it was ridiculous, two children , three adults being turned away told to book . When they don’t take bookings ? Told we should have called to book . This is a rude response from nandos as you discourage bookings . To add they let in four people after us. Which of course made the situation worse . But the management sadly didn’t rectify the situation. Poor decisions made .

Will possibly change my review as I heard amazing things about the food and the service and was desperate to try this place. However I went on Sunday the 22nd of December and it was 5.30pm and was closed despite saying it was open online. I can't really judge on anything but that was poor service in my mind

Very unfortunate experience tonight, Having ordered on line at 3pm for delivery at 6.30-6.45pm and after 3 calls to Lucky, food arrived at 7.55pm. To add insult the wrong order arrived someone else will be disappointed too!!! Clearly not worth ordering early. What a disaster!!

Ambiente íntimo, entrega rápida de bebidas, la comida era todo agradable y cálido. Hacen descuento de tarjeta de luz azul, así que eso fue agradable. Solo un buen servicio hoy un poco rápido con la toma de placas, pero nos sentimos atendidos por el equipo

Lovely ambience.. attentive staff and the food was absolutely beautiful. Portions were perfect. Would highly recommend a visit if you’re in Lincoln.
