The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Mole Valley South East

Take away delivered twice recently and we can recommend this take away. Good classic Chinese food delivered hot and freshly cooked.

I've eaten a lot of Chinese food in my life. From Soho to Shanghai to Singapore. I've had the simple, the fancy, the obscure and the extraordinary. Some good, some bad and some unpronounceable. Chifan fits exactly where it should in the spectrum. It's tasty, it's reliable and the staff are lovely. I'd happily order in here anytime. Ask them what you want and they will do their best to help. Ask for wine and they'll produce a surprisingly good wine - list. In short, this is a restaurant that does exactly as it should. The owner, Jessica, should be proud of what she has achieved. The people of Dorking are lucky to have her.

Unfortunately the food,atmosphere and service has gone down hill. The restaurant was also freezing and I had to keep my coat on all night. The restaurant was almost empty apart from one other table but the service was still slow and not very professional, e.g. when we ordered another coke they just handed us a can!! The young girl who was serving didn't break a smile all evening,she definitely needed some training!

After establishing whether our fussy eater was going to choose the Tikka Masala as "it could be a bit too spicy for him", we eventually decided to opt for a set meal. The array of Northern Indian appetisers looked appealing but the choice to add prawns and sesame seeds to the naan bread was odd. The table next to us was having a heated (not too hot according to our fussy eater) conversation about how many Mothers Days there are, I can confirm having checked now, that there are 7. The second Sunday in May and the 4th Sunday after Lent appeared to be the most popular. Anyway, Dorking Wanderers won comfortably at home despite a first half Red Card. In summary, the waitress showed a competent understanding of French grammar, the place settings were in a weird position only covering 1/2 of the circumference of the table and the Pilau rice had egg in. Already looking forward to our next visit when we venture to your Sushi Restaurant in Wimbledon on the 19th April.

Great place, good atmosphere and friendly staff

I went onto the website which states currently open Tuesdays 11.02.2025and ordered a take away to pick up just after 6pm . Once the money went through it came back saying pick up after 6pm on Wednesday. Apparently it isn't open. This is a terrible service . Be careful of this. Now I have to spend time contacting them to try and get a full refund

Take away was warm when arrived, portion size was a joke for price, small containers not even full no way worth the money, will not be using again.

Ordered from Happy Diner a few times now, and always very pleased with the quality and quantity. Really good value for money! Stars of the show have been the salt and chilli ribs, the double roast pork in chilli sauce, the chow mein… everything really! Would be great if they did delivery but you can’t have it all. Recommended! 👍🏻

Just got a takeaway from here and quite frankly it's terrible every thing is bland the soup that I asked for spicy is tasteless and looks like dish water, the "special" chow mein should be called chow mean as there isn't anything in it besides a few dry old prawns and some grey meat and dry noodles, the peking dumplings are under cooked and greasy and the lettuce underneath is see thru it's that old! I have eaten here in the past and it's been quite nice but never again!

Good food good service very prompt and good value

amazing ownerd now thats customer service!!!

Unfortunately the Food was terrible Pancake rolls where full of grease I ordered an item and was sent the wrong thing , then although I never have before and they have always sent the right item when I phoned to complain, was told to order with the Chinese item on the menu , no apology or offer of correction The rice had gristle and soggy skin in it And the curry sauce had a burned flavour Only one dish was ok We have used this shop for years But won’t for a very long time , if ever again A real disappointment

They almost killed me , it clearly says no chilli yet they decided to Put chilli in the food which could’ve led to me having a huge asthma attack as I’m massively allergic to chilli. All they could offer was a sorry which is disgusting when it Could’ve been more dangerous should I not have been awake and seen the food. The severity of this is absolutely huge and I will be writing to the food standard agencies to ensure the restaurant is bought in front of the agency. as It could’ve been a lot worse. to offer an apology with no sort of compensation is absolutely shocking For the importance of the issue
