The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Cherwell South East

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.

Best Chinese in banbury always come here ever since I moved here

We had a very disappointing meal on Saturday night. It took over an hour to get our food and the delivery charge was £7.00 which really pushed up the cost of our meal. I appreciate it was a Saturday and would have been very busy, but it was early evening. As soon as we received our order and took the lids off the foil trays our hearts sank. The food looked overcooked, beige and greasy. We don’t have a Chinese takeaway very often, it’s usually a real treat, so we were looking forward to this, sadly we were all disappointed. The king prawn balls had obviously been cooked twice and were overcooked in burnt thick batter with very little prawn. The crispy seaweed tasted very strange and too much sugar on it. It tasted to both of us like their oil needed changing. I love tofu, but the black bean sauce was too overpowering and thick. The sir fry mixed vegetables in Szechaun sauce tasted just like overcooked vegetables in gravy. Even the prawn crackers were not nice, too thick and not fresh tasting. My husband said his crispy chilli beef was nice, but the egg fried rice was overcooked and beige. It just wasn’t a nice meal. I called them up because I didn’t want to leave disparaging feedback without speaking to them first, but to be honest I couldn’t get a word in edgeways. The manager just constantly talked at me, so much so I said I was going to have to put the phone down. They did offer us free king prawn balls on our next visit, but we decided that we won’t be using them again.

Use to be lovely food, quality really gone down, seems like ingredients have been changed to cheaper and the amout of meat in dishes not nice. Use to be pork pieces, not pork mince in the sweet and sour pork balls, won't use again

Best kung po chicken ever. Love that it is not a modern stark decor. Food, service and price, all very good!

I got the all you can eat buffet, £26 and very worth it! Came here on March 22 2025, very satisfied with the results as the sashimi was fresh and I know for a fact that the sushi wasn’t refrigerated and it was made freshly as the rice wasn’t hard and the fruit was freshly cut. They also charge waste fee which is good as it teaches you not to waste food and not to order too much. I will definitely come back when I get the chance. I recommend the spider maki, mango tempura sushi and the half raw half seared tempura sushi.

Absolute rip off, portions were tiny, meat was over cooked and food was cold when delivered. Never again, worst Chinese I’ve had in Bicester.

Would be 5* as it’s mostly really good - with the sole exception of the lemon sauce which must have artificial sweeteners in it - it tastes so chemically that I couldn’t eat it. Thought it might be a one-off problem but the 2nd time it was even worse. Just won’t be able to have my favourite dish here any more.

I’ve never had a problem with this takeaway in about 20 visits over the years. Premises are basic, food is tasty. I’ve always phoned the order though then collected 20 mins later, never had to wait for long.
