The best restaurants serving Chinese food in East Hertfordshire East of England

Asked for water and receive bottled water at £3.95 a bottle! Food was bland. Won’t be going back. When ordering the lunch menu check what is included as they don’t tell you if something is not included in the 3 courses and will charge you extra.

Absolutely fantastic place, food is outstanding

Unwelcoming and unfriendly staff, especially the older lady at front of house. Made my family, and I feel like a burden. Poor approach to customers. Table adjacent to us also shared the same view. It's a shame as the food is nice however customer service is poor, hence why we would not return.

I agree with the review below the food is nice but poxy little portions I couldn’t believe how small the plates of food that come up but 4 chicken balls between 2 people what a joke also the prices on the menu outside the door are not the same as the menu inside we spent £80 and not a free prawn cracker in sight

Sadly, after trying a few of my favorite dishes, the food is not as good. They call the rice dishes "fried" but they aren't. It just looks and tastes liked boiled, lukewarm rice.

Gourmet Oriental used to be my favorite Chinese Restaurant as they offered a buffet all you can eat menu for years. The price of that would go up over time but that’s fine, what restaurant hasn’t done that? However, they have now stopped the buffet model and have switched to a standard menu. It’s such a shame but I appreciate that business have to adapt. Thank you Gourmet Oriental for all the memories. If they were to adopt the buffet menu again I would definitely go back.

Ordered takeaway online and paid. Then received an email saying that they were too busy to take new orders. Upon calling them they said they are closed. Still not received refund. Do not take peoples money for a service you cannot provide. Not to mention false advertising stating that they were open but actually not. Severely disappointing service which resulted in my family not getting food that evening.

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

I ordered £36 worth of food order was wrong they admitted getting order one so I only got half the food When I called they said they would deliver correct food 45 minutes later buy this time food already received would be stone cold I said do complete order again and collect wrong order and they said no I’m not happy curry had a funny taste chicken ball very dry hole lot went in the bin Don’t waste your money There are plenty of Chinese restaurants about Check out the reviews If you make a complaint just know there very unsympathetic And unhelpful Even when it’s there fault

Vegan options are incredible. Can’t recommend enough. Chicken satay skewers and the chicken chow mein are incredible!! So incredible to have vegan chow mein. Have vegan crispy duck

Wish we’d read the reviews before ordering! Disgusting!!!! Unfortunately Peking Palace was closed today being a Sunday and Golden city had been leaflet dropping our area recently clearly they need business because the locals obviously avoid this place. Lemon chicken tough dry and disgusting crab meat and sweetcorn soup disgusting no other words Chicken and sweetcorn soup, Runny with massive chunks of chicken totally disgusting Sweet-and-sour pork balls look like they’ve been cooked three times before they were cooked for us hard in edible Chicken chow mein, tasteless and also disgusting Prawn crackers well done something you can eat The worst Chinese I’ve ever eaten I kept trying to press no stars, but it wouldn’t allow me
