The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Colchester East of England

I am very appalled with the service I received last weekend. After receiving The wrong food I phoned to let them know, to my surprise the lady was extremely unhelpful just saying that is what I had ordered, I would not have order this dish as I am vegetarian, it was full of meat and seafood which was wasted. I will not be using Hong Kong chef in the future as they obviously don’t care if their customers are happy.

A family favourite because they are so flavourful & attentive to us being vegan & a wheat allergy. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Chowmein was amazing! 10/10. Must try

Nice and juicy chicken balls, Amazing spicy chips!!! scrumptious! definitely will go back again!

The beef pink and NOT beef don’t know what it was horrible tasteless but the hot and sober soup was beautiful

We just had a Special Chow Mein and I can honestly say, it was awful, the pork was recognisable, there was another meat in it I think it was supposed to be chicken which tasted terrible, nothing like chicken, never again. The chow Mein was stodgy and tasteless 😣

It was my first time ordered Chinese from oriental house last night, first of all thank you for the great customer service from the front of house. She gave comfortable, clear and polite manner to us. Ordered an crispy chilli beef come in large potion, can’t finished for two and the chicken satay mains is authentic. reasonable price and highly recommended Chinese take away in Colchester!!!

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.

Don’t bother… You will wait hours to collect your takeaway. It’s sheer greed on their part. They clearly can’t cope with the volume of orders, but continue to take them. So even if ordering in advance you will wait at the premises up to an hour after they said it would be ready. Not just once.. every time. This business will nose dive as soon as there is some competition on Mersea

I eat here regularly but usually order it to go — they’re a little on the pricey side but well worth it. This the best Chinese restaurant for vegetarians and vegans, they offer almost all main-menu options with a veggie alternative and they’re not just replacing things with basic veg like other places. Vegan “chicken style” balls are delicious and always crispy, love the chow mein and portions are always enough to share.

1 1/2 hours from placing our order to the delivery turning up. Got a phone call after 40 minutes to say it will take longer and they have to do 3 other deliveries before coming to us. Got refunded. Wait to see if we actual get it. Driver turns up, told her you took too long, we've been refunded, take it back. Will never use this place again.

After having to call 3 times to ask where our order was the food arriving after 2hours.The beef curry we ordered didn’t turn up it was chicken curry which was watery and no taste .The chicken balls were soggy and tasteless. Sadly we have used this restaurant for many years we will never be going back.

Food appeared to be precooked and reheated as it was prepared and boxed up too quickly. Everything was far to greasy. Small portions which was okay as most of it went in the bin. Definitely would not go there again.

Not nowhere like as good as old yunlmmys. My advice to them would be sack the chef get a different one ...................

Had a delivery from here and the food really wasn't that great. Ribs full of inedible bits, ended up throwing away far more than you could actually eat. Other dishes were very watery and didn't taste that great. Spring rolls were good and other dishes were ok but shame about the rest.
