The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Bicester Town Cherwell South East

Pleasantly surprised by this place having seen the mixed reviews.. We were welcomed warmly and shown to a little tucked away table (the way the restaurant is divided makes it feel more intimate and separate from the bar). Ordered food which was delicious and cocktails which were also surprisingly good. Highlight was our server - an older gentleman with a delightful manner and great sense of humour. Will definitely be back.

Good food and pleasant counter staff.

Absolutely delicious food! I got the egg fried rice and sweet chili crispy chicken. I wish I couldve taken pictures but I ate it all so quickly as it tasted super yummy! Well flavored, seasoned and perfect portion size. The staff was super friendly and warm <3 Highly recommend coming here for a Chinese Takeaway :D !

We decided to visit Shan Shui during a shopping trip to Bicester Village to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Instead of our usual grab-and-go from Pret, we thought we’d enjoy a nice sit-down meal given the occasion. Since the restaurant has been around for years and we’re big fans of Chinese cuisine, we thought it would be a great choice. Unfortunately, we were very wrong. We ordered a few starters and some dim sum, and the food was absolutely terrible. My wife actually had to spit out the chicken dim sum because it was so bad, something we’ve never had to do at any Chinese restaurant before. The taste was awful, and it left us questioning how Bicester Village could allow such a poor-quality restaurant to occupy such a prime location, especially in a shopping centre with limited dining options. We ended up returning the food and leaving without ordering anything else, as we didn’t want to let the bad experience ruin my wife’s birthday further. We didn’t even complain because it was meant to be a special day, but I wouldn’t recommend anyone waste their time or money here. We’ll stick to Pret or Itsu next time, and I strongly advise everyone to do the same.

February 2023. Had the Prawn Chow Mein and Pancake Rolls. The Chow Mein tasted fine but the Pancake Rolls tasted and smelt a little different from the times I've had before. After 2 hours, I was sick and fell ill to it. Unfortunate as I normally buy from here but because of this, I don't think I will again. :( Updating as I'm seeing you were hit with a low hygeine score recently. This food poisoning took me 2 weeks to recover from. You should have taken my review as a warning sign because this was the worst food poisoning I had to deal with.

Very good value for money and the staff always happy to help, the food is excellent, thank you good very good staff xx. Xxx

Food taste great! All you can eat menu has great number of choices! Recommend this place if you want to taste asian food.
