The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Stafford West Midlands

Found this takeaway last year food always fresh hot and tasty what a find. Always ready at the agreed time nothing is to much trouble staff are great.

The food hygiene rating is 2.. do I need to really say more about this?! My sister ordered the crispy pork in Mongolian sauce amongst other things such as the pork wontons & soup. Not even by midnight she was up vomiting…this is definitely food poisoning. I had the same Mongolian sauce but with crispy chicken & salt/pepper crispy prawns. Thankfully I’m okay, but the food itself was mediocre and bordering on the term gross, I couldn’t finish it. I can’t understand why there are so many good reviews, but anyway, this is my experience ordering from this place and we definitely won’t be ordering here again.

My go to place for takeaway. Food is really fresh and tasty, also quite healthy if you wanted it to be. Staff are very friendly and helpful too.

Very polite and excellent customer service. Food is beyond my imagination. Reminds me of Asian countries. Well done and keep up the good work

Fantastic place, quality food, highly recommended!

Delicious food and good options with either rice or noodles

Decent ish place. They can be a little slow to replace the popular and expensive buffet items. Buffet price is reasonable. The beer (the pints) are a bit dear.

Cons: Ambience lacking in something I couldn’t quite put my finger on. Service was slow (to take drinks and food order and then a wait for food) and we were one of only two tables, the other table only having four people. We were in the restaurant 1 hour before getting any food. An apology was given and we were told they were busy with takeaway. A good restaurant can and will balance both. Luckily we weren’t starving but I felt frustrated that I probably would have got a takeaway here more quickly. Pros: They do a lamb and hot garlic garlic sauce which I swapped for chicken without problem. Portion sizes are perfect. Value for money. Food was beautiful, all freshly cooked and served hot. We did really enjoy our meals. Waitress was lovely. Tables in the restaurant are not crammed in. Good varied menu, lots of choice. Parking on Sainsburys car park right next door for £1.10 from 6pm-8am. Fussy son devoured his chow mein and his preference for no veg etc in the chow mein was not a problem at all. Overall, I do recommend Essence because the food was truly lovely, just be prepared for a wait for service and food as it deals with the take away service. Hence a 4* rather than 5* rating.

We use sunny hill takeaway on a regular basis and normally it is nice but the recent meal we had from here was so salty which made it inedible to eat which is disappointing after waiting one hour for it to be delivered .

It’s just basic, set meals are either full of rice or noodles as it’s cheap tastes ok but nothing special at all , also take you overcoat as it’s freezing in there dusty and dated , it’s rubbish to be honest but better than nothing I suppose

Brilliant Chinese takeaway, easily the best in Stafford by some distance, and the best sweet and sour sauce I’ve ever had anywhere in the world.

Just had a very tasty takeaway from Good View. The sweet & sour chicken & chicken with pineapple & ginger were very fresh tasting & delicious. Very easy to order online & delivery was good...5 minutes ahead of time in fact. We'll definitely use again.

Kind staff, person on phone extremely nice aswell as staff on till. Brilliant takeaway

Not had a meal from here for a while. Friend told me it was really good at the moment. And it was. Special chow mein pork fried rice and SS chicken balls all very nice. Think £2.40 for prawn crackers is unnecessarily expensive especially as others give them free. All the good was good and service was quick.

Each time we have ordered from this restaurant the food has been really hot and nice, the duck rice with the sauce on is my favourite as it's beautiful, melts in the mouth and goes great with most things This is our go to chinese food place after changing from another which ended up being disgusting, Great food!
