The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Braintree East of England

This restaurant does not fail to deliver on special occasions, especially birthday. My friend received an on the house dessert, hand written card, and a rose! These small touches go a very long way and I hope this restaurant continued success. Our new fav for family occassions

Very good shakes I would recommend to anyone! Staff is very good and friendly. Best shakes in Braintree!

Foods amazing and the people who run it are very lovely! The interior is a little dated but it doesn’t matter when everything else makes up for it!

Lovely hot food, delivered with a friendly face, Dawn very helpful and helpful, answering the phone, would highly recommend, very fresh and yummy, well done

Without a doubt still the best Chinese restaurant for miles. Lovely staff, spotlessly clean and the food just fabulous. We had a set menu and every dish was fantastic. Highly recommended

Ordered one thing got over charged for a different dish then ask to rectify it got looked at like it was fault then it got sorted but no mention of the price difference bad receptionist that will run the place down

We haven’t had a takeaway for 3 years now. Fancied a Chinese tonight and we always used Masefield Road before. So decided to order from them again. It was absolutely gorgeous, delivered hot, everything was cooked perfect. Enjoyed every bit and price still very good value for money. Would highly recommend to anyone. A big thank you to all the staff and we will definitely be back again.

We nipped in for a birthday meal after hearing good things about the restaurant. We were to be honest a little underwhelmed when we walked in as it was quite cold and a little uninviting, but after sitting down we changed our minds quickly. The staff are very friendly and attentive, the service swift and on point. The food is cooked to order and amazing. Hot, fresh, tasty and generous portions. The salt & pepper squid is to die for and the crispy lamb and pancakes was great too. The crispy chilli beef is one of the best I've had and certainly packs a punch. Definitely not the last time we will visit

I have been using Taste of China since 2010, and the meals are always amazing, with good service and affordability. Thank you for always welcoming us in like family. If I could, I would be in every week. My uncle, who is hard to please, always raves about your meals. My mum always loved your prawn toast, and your crispy duck is always perfect and full to the brim, with the rice and noodles always well packed, giving us more for our money. Counting down the days to eating one of your meals again, cash permitting, due to family upheaval. Will pop a photo on if I have one here if not will pop another next time.

Use to love Ying- but seriously now- nearly £6 for palin boiled rice?!!!! - satay chicken skewers - Boiled Rice Almost £21 WTF 🤬

Arranged a Takeaway and Sure delivered on Time by Delivery By Lee very nice Chap would recommend Veery Polite and Prompt. Also good Food!

Big portions and great service from the two ladies. Really good value for money and the best quality Chinese in the area in my opinion.

New to the area so we are trying all the options. Venue was empty when we went in so took time to view the menu. Offering is vast which often is a concern for me personally. We ordered beef curry, honey chilli chicken, Chicken sweet corn soup and ribs. Over all all dishes were very bland and there was no chilli in the honey chilli chicken. Ribs had plenty of sauce but very little meats on the bones which was a shame.

shocking delivery service from empire house, used this firm before ,no problems, not waiting nearly 2 hours, excuse after excuse, on the plus side the food has always been good

I’ve never had a bad meal here - the food and portions are brilliant. Service is quick and I honestly can’t fault any part of the process
