The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Southend-on-Sea East of England

I have been having Chinese from this take away for years!! Best Chinese I have had!!! I have 6 fussy children and they all find something of the menu...your needs are well catered for, if you ask to have a change to your dish they will always accommodate. Portions are large, price is excellent and service is fantastic!! If you collect you Dave 10%, which is a great saving. Have no negatives about this takeaway...have missed them during the lockdown!

Food was delicious, and delivered on time.

food was great couldn’t fault it the staff were very friendly and welcoming our friend was 18 the day we went and was given a nice surprise by the staff we will go back and would recommend to others thank you

Great Chinese, staff super friendly, service very quick, they were busy but didn't rush us in any way. First time going I'll be going back.

Food was ok, nothing special, they did mention they were out of some of the fresh meat and you request this before coming to hold some back. The duck course was pretty dry and generally average. The mains were ok but again no better than a normal Chinese takeaway but slightly more pricey

Great Chinese food. Very clean premises. Sad thing is it closes on 16 Nov. 😢

This was our go to Chinese when we lived in Shoeburyness. After a number of bad experiences with the Seaview, we decided to try Wok King again. We were not disappointed!! Forgot how good it was! Great food, speedy delivery, hot tasty food and actually not too expensive! Would highly recommend! If they accepted card payment, it would’ve ben a perfect score!

Second time ordering from here, first time was pretty good so thought would order from here again and what a disappointment. Waited for over an hour which I wouldn’t mind if the food was decent and hot but it absolutely was not. It was cold and gross, even the prawn crackers tasted stale. Also when calling up to complain they seemed annoyed with me and made out like I’m a liar. Very rude, rubbish food and will not be ordering from there again

Ordered here a few times never had any problems and always great food until last night.... So we pre ordered our food as it was mother's day expecting to be busy with that in mind we did have an item not turn up/missing but they did send it straight away. Literally 1 minute before the driver returned with our missing item I was enjoying my meal and tucked into my last chicken ball, instantly I knew something was wrong it wasn't chicken it was a king prawn ball. I am allergic to prawns and suffer from anaphylactic allergic reaction. I immediately spat it out and rinsed my mouth I was ok thankfully but dinner was ruined and tainted. We phoned up and explained what happened they offered free food next order but there was no way this was happening. We went to the shop in person to ask why this had happened to be met with conflict and excuses. Passing the blame to a chef who wasn't even there, questioned about the prawn even though we had it in hand to show them. The owners had no remorse to what happened and offered £5 to compensate. What a joke. Until I said do you not care they gave us £20 to walk away. It's clearly obvious they are cooking chicken and prawn together with cross contamination at play. If you suffer from allergies or other dietary requirements be aware ordering food from here.

Best Chinese Takeaway in Southend City and beyond. They are retiring soon now and will be greatly missed.

Yet again, super delivery service in record time. Beautiful food as always. Thankyou

My favourite place ever so sad they are shutting mud March get down before they close. Food is amazing

wWell, cant believe im writing this but sadly HO'S is ,after 3 more attempts , going from bad to worse . Food came out bland and cold , everyone in our group did not eat half what they were given all saying it wasnt nice . Two of our group ate none at all and opted to go back out and get a kebab instead it was that bad. Sadly thats our last try at HO'S . I believe they are closing down anyway so.....

As usual, amazing curry! Always amazing service, big portions and good delivery times especially as I know they are a very popular Chinese. Thankyou for an amazing meal 🙂

Usually this place is quite good, however ordered special fried rice today and this made me projectile vomit twice. I am not sure what changed. I called to ask for a refund for just the fried rice, however the person I spoke to kept on asking if I checked my order. Thankfully it was only me and not my kids that vomited. I doubt it was made fresh, as the order came just after 10 minutes of ordering. I would not be ordering again from Fortune garden
