The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Sefton North West

I visited this restaurant in early December with my friend, were were after a relaxing few hours and a great restaurant experience not had chinese for a while. When we entered the restaurant we noticed how cold the temperature was, it was only 6pm so we thought maybe but hadn't been open long. We ordered a beer each from the waitress and then very soon after was asked 3 times if we were Ready to order , a bit pressured we thought. Also the wine list had disappeared from the table and had to ask twice for it. We ordered our banquet and awaited our soup, this was tasteless, iv never had to add salt to chicken & Sweetcorn soup! Our red wine arrived and it was freezing cold! I mentioned this to the waitress and she said "well it's not been in the fridge". Our combination course of ribs, spring rolls and seaweed was really nice but the mains were not, tough pork balls and chewy chicken. Untill we asked for a break the meal was very rushed. We didn't enjoy the experience and won't be returning.

Been coming the Silver Star for years, best Chinese by far. Food is lovely and the staff are always very nice. Cant beat the quality & taste

Thought we were going to have a superb takeaway judging from previous reviews. We paid top dollar (£59- which we were pre warned about when ordering) for two mains with egg fried rice. We were sorely disappointed and felt thoroughly ripped off. The mains were average and the fried rice was gloopy. Never again. Save your money.

Got takeaway, normally everything is OK but the salt & pepper chicken was cold and they sent fried rice instead of chips with one of the meals, by the time I'd have got through on the phone to ask for chips the rest of the food would have gone cold, disappointing 😞

I love their Singapore noodles and also the salt and pepper 🌶 selection. Large portions at a fare price! Prawn toasties plump and delicious. Salt and pepper ribs and wings well recommended. Best Chinese takeaway in Southport.

As already mentioned by others, this in my opinion is the best Chinese take away in Southport. We love our chinese food and struggle to find decent food thats not packed with MSG and gloopy sauces, but Woks Cooking is great every time. Bargain is the dinner boxes, feeds two people. Chowmein is great, as is the Wonton soup, Wartap chicken, crispy duck pancakes, salt and pepper ribs, and many other things we've tried here.

Told delivery would be an hour which was fine, rang an hour and 10 minutes later to be told it wasn’t ready and would be another half an hour, rang back again a total of 2 hours later to be told it was on its way, asked how long and another 10 minutes, cancelled order., they said sorry they were busy!!! Just tell people you can’t deliver!

Fresh fast food service cleansed well food cooked perfectly xx

Last week I ordered fish, chips and mushy peas! My meal was freshly cooked and piping hot when I got home. The fish was large and cooked to perfection! And the chips...... just the way I like them! I enjoyed having banter with the staff whilst I was waiting for my food. The behind the counter staff were really lovely! The portions are very large, by the way! I got half a portion of chips and had to leave some because I was full up. Lisa x

It been a lest 4 week now iv been going past it and every time it not been open 😒 as it saying on ther Website it opened at 16.30 to 23.00 as this place been shut down do we know

Food is always hot and delicious.

The hoisin sauce was missing from our duck, the soups were bland and the chicken and ginger dish was overpowering. To be fair to them we didn’t call them to rectify the issue as they had already told us their driver was finishing early so we knew there was nothing they could do anyway. Just disappointing

Although the food and atmosphere is fairly good just a few points dropped for the following Set menu Please study as When you buy a set menu and they say prawn crackers with your soup you will.pay EXTRA for those The main course sauces can be very blank and watery The fried rice is NOT egg fried rice or even fried rice its strange A bottle of normal magners cider is £7.50 and all drinks are over priced expensive When they ask you would you like your tea and coffee now after finishing your meal these are also chargeable around £4 each! I feel It should be asked would you like to buy a tea or coffee now and possibly shown the menu with drinks prices Wendy is good at running the restaurant but can.be very snappy and loud with staff "kitchen NOW" we don't need to hear We spent over £200 which is actually my weekly wage so should have been a treat but the small additions sneaked in which came to nearly £40.00 left us feeling cold and ripped off We won't be returning or recommending

It used to be excellent value for money,now I cannot say the same. Very overpriced and completely average food. Some of the food was like warm at best and lots of it extremely tasteless. Flat rola cola. Extremely disappointed. Will not go back as much better food for cheaper in other restaurants.

Always visit Rainbow when in Southport. Good food, good potions and fair price. Probably do have off days but we've never experienced it. Remember it's a take away not a restaurant.
