The best restaurants serving Chinese food in East of England

Called to order as previously had ordered and paid by card , this time was told it’s bank transfer or cash only! Very strange & dubious!

The other day me and my family had some food from here. I had chicken balls with rice sweet and sour sauce with bamboo shoots my grandad had spare ribs and noodles and my nan had BBQ pork with fried rice. We drove here to collect the food and it was nice and warm and it was delicious. I highly recommend here to go for a Chinese takeaway.

Staying in Elmswell for a few nights and went to this Chinese. Really enjoyed the food. I’m vegan and so always cause maximum levels of awkwardness everywhere I go! The staff were really accommodating - taking the time to go through all the possible dishes I could have. Throughly recommend and would go again for sure.

Food was good but slightly overpriced compared to other local Chinese takeaways. Staff were pleasant when we arrived to collect but person on the phone taking the orders was very abrupt.

This was the first time we had visited Songs, it will unfortunately be our last. Plates were cold, food was barely warm and the only thing that was fresh was the salad. The food was bland in taste and I struggled to find something that I really enjoyed. Food should not be luke warm . The serving spoons are left in the trays so the lids don’t shut. I saw a man replenishing dishes and wiping spilt food with a blue dishcloth and shaking it back into the food trays to be served, it turned my stomach. The omelette was rubbery and the beef in black bean sauce was grisly. Overall very poor.

Live locally and thought about getting a take away from here. Checked out their food hygiene rating. It got a 1 star. Must be pretty terrible so went else where

lovely food, fast delivery, the ribs are to die for, lovely service would 100% recommend to anyone around bishops stortford!!

Been going to this Chinese takeaway for years as I love the way they make a chicken and mushroom curry also have had many other food they do and everytime just brilliant well done to the owners..

Never will order from them again it disgusting a waste of £36.. the beef friend rices tasted funcky and the beef was chewy. The chips had been cooked again and the pancake roll I orderd came as mini spring rolls and beef curry was disgusting and chicken ball was dry n chewy

Really disappointing experience. Have been before and usually fine. Staff polite but clearly overstretched that evening . I was told 25 minutes over the phone but after having taken the money at the shop I was then told no one knew how long the food would be…! Problem is I can accept a delay on a hot summer Saturday but a simple dish of prawn fried rice tasted like a cobbled together collection of burnt leftover scrapings ..inedible . Sorry not coming back

Not brilliant food and service is poor. Food missing and promised it would be re delivered. Waited an hour and still a no show. Just full of bull for excuses. Helpful though as made me realise it worth driving 6 miles the other way and getting good food and service.

Thank you for a delicious take away meal this evening. Hot crispy pancake roll packed with flavour, and very enjoyable special chow mein. Also thank you for staying open late.

We have been going to sams for years and never found them so awful .. They have missed 1 dish twice from 2 of our orders now and their attitude when calling up about it , is just RUDE .. They had charged us for the dish and we spend over £40 every order !! We will NOT BE using sams NO MORE !! They need to know how to treat their customers

Corner House chinese food was a joke, his reply to my first review is an absolute lie and it had nothing to do with pick up we went in to order and waited so get your FACTS right what we complained about was the lack of food quality, who orders chilli beef and it is the colour of an orange lol an absolute joke 😃 just own it your business is going down the pan, like the food lol and you just reply 8 months after I wrote the review your customer service is 🚻

Utterly disappointed with how we was treated, food turned up up soggy tasteless and full of oil phoned back to complain was told we could have another delivery to see if any better and agin the same food turned up was then told we could have a refund and how sorry they were was told to make sure we keep the food which we did hours went past no refund the next evening we phone back to ask where the refund is and was told we was never allowed a refund £50 worth of Chinese still sitting on the kitchen side to be picked up was spoken to horrendously no apology nothing so no food and no refund discusting really wouldn’t use this place I know loads of people myself that have had same problems and will also not be returning utterly shocking the customer service is discusting and so is the food if I could score lower I would
