Ordered a delivery for the first time from Rice and Noodles tonight. It arrived in about 20 minutes. I had the king prawn with mix vegetables and my partner had Chicken Hong Kong style. We got udon mushroom noodles and large egg fried rice as sides. They gave us free prawn crackers which was nice! The food was warm but not hot, but that’s nothing out of the ordinary when getting a takeaway. They were happy to accommodate to my intolerance to peppers and the prawns were perfectly cooked. My partner said his main was nice. The udon mushroom noodles were delicious but I will ask to omit the bean sprouts next time so there are more of the noodles as by the time it had mushrooms too there was quite a lot of veg. The large egg fried rice was a generous portion and it was lovely and soft but there was not any noticeable egg in it so I scrambled some egg at home and added it. Bit of a shame as we really love egg rice and it would have been a 5/5 review if there had been the egg we expected in it. I will ask for more egg next time and hope they can accommodate. Overall will definitely order again as despite there being took for improvement everything was nicely seasoned, fresh and not stodgy or oily. Thank you for a tasty dinner!

The most authentic Chinese takeout you'll ever have. And their portions are too generous!

I have been going to the Lon Wah for more than 40 years and have always had a great experience, but my most recent takeaway was very disappointing indeed. I went for the Spicy Shreeded Beef and it as very bland with not much sauce. Alongside I chose chicken with pineapple and again that was tasteless and devoid of any real flavour. The portion size is quite small compared to other take aways, and yet they charge quite alot for their dishes. Maybe I chose the wrong things from the menu, but I was expecting alot better.

Used to love this place before it changed hands. It is a rip off. Extortionate prices and amateurish taking orders.

Took 1 for the team & opted for this school canteen dining experience as all 4 of us choose different dishes for a Chinese takeaway & it can work out quite costly. Positive - can't fault the service, staff were quick to clear plates. Negative - poor food quality - was really looking forward to the Crispy Aromatic Duck which was pale, soggy & minced not crispy & shredded. Unfortunately, will not be returning.

Pffff… most of the food is bang average, some of it is actually just plain old gross. It’s overpriced also. My daughter went and got some grapes and they weren’t ripe, they tasted bitter. Some of the kitchen staff were hanging around near the kitchen door, they kind of had faces that suggested they were waiting to see If anyone would go for the dish that the porters had spat it. Just felt uneasy in there. Staff are actually rubbish, as I’m writing this a waiter comes over and just points at the empty plates on our table, and then stands there waiting for me to pass him empty plates. Like that’s my job? Never coming here again.

We were so disappointed tonight. Delivery was an hour, which is fine when the food arrives hot and lovely. Tonights food was only warm. I had a beef curry which the beef had a strange taste of being slightly sour which I then left. The sauce was very "creamy'. I also had a prawn cocktail which had arrived on the hot food and was strangely warmer than the food at the bottom. One prawn had big black mark on. So disappointed as we have had lovely meals in the past.

First time I’ve ordered from here as my other Chinese takeaway was close and unfortunately probably will be the last, I don’t like giving bad reviews, but I can honestly say it was the most flavourless plate of Chinese food I’ve had in a long while, Need to up your game and add some flavour
