The best restaurants serving Chinese food in England

I first reviewed this fantastic little Chinese restaurant 8 years ago, and I’m so glad I recently went back — it’s just as good as I remembered. It’s a small, family-run place on the outskirts of Reading and still very much a hidden gem. Everything we ordered was great, but the Hong Kong-style beef brisket noodles and the Sichuan spicy chicken were real standouts — both absolutely delicious. The flavours are authentic, the portions generous, and the prices reasonable. Friendly service too. Highly recommended

We visited in January and REALLY loved it! It was random check-in for a dine-in to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it was worth it! The staffs were so accommodating and courteous. The ambience was very lovely! We enjoyed our visit!

Thought we would give this a go staff at first with polite but felt like you were gonna be rushed , ordered sweet and sour chicken and chicken chow meine , after 10 minutes it came out the sweet and sour was so small and for the price of 14 quid i expected a bit more and it was so bland , my partner did not eat as when the chowmeine came out the chicken looked enimic and it was laced in grease no sauce , we quickly left , over priced and rubbish . When my partner complained the attitude of the staff changed and they became aggressive in their tone of voice and tried to insult my partner by saying do u eat take aways .

Open late and great quality food and service. Recommend

Food was very tasty, generous portions and a reasonable price. Staff were very polite and accommodating. The atmosphere was ideal for us as we were friends wanting to talk so appreciated it not being too noisy.

This place is a joke. Please save your money and order from elsewhere.

It was good so good I would eat here again kids like it and wife loved it also

Absolutely a rip off for the same price in hornsea at the golden wok you can feed a family of four compared to this place I can't believe how little you get at this place and the food isn't spectacular either I can only say that I won't be going back there I will wait till I'm in hornsea and go to the golden wok where you get what you pay for and the food is out of this world if I could give this place a 0 rating I would absolutely ripped off here you might consider your portion size and quality of food in future

So kind and respectful, food at affordable prices , lovely atmosphere and great food.

Fabulous food, highly recommend

It was like going back 20 years. The sort of Chinese given as a child in 80’s, when I knew no different. Heavy sweet sauces, that were out of any jar bought from supermarket. Poor quality meat, chicken dish, crispy chicken, pretty certain frozen pieces of battered chicken? Certainly low quality. Ribs cheep, defrosted. Chow mein special. Noodles tasted stale. Although nice vegetables. 1/4 duck. Wasn’t so bad. More pancakes. Really not good at all. Really missing a trick as service lovely and restaurant location excellent. Look up Blu Eye Panda in Manchester, or go to Yum Cha again in Manchester for an example of high quality Chinese food. Really disappointed as now local to area .

Very disappointing. Ordered the all you can eat menu. Portions were small and not served as the dish was described on the menu. If you order a sizzling dish you expect it to be just that. No such luck I'm afraid and the excuses as to why we're feeble. The food was not served hot enough and was unappetising. Wouldn't repeat the experience. The meal had to be paid for in advance, the reason became clear as the meal progressed. Few would have wanted to pay for it.

Just had a take-away it was disgusting. Even the crackers had a horrible taste they went into the bin. My partner had Chicken curry he said it tasted very processed & it went in the bin very unusual for him to leave anything let alone throw it. I had kung po chicken that was chewy and with the rice I think was old & reheated. Such a shame we have never gone anywhere else always used this restaurant & never had a complaint. Will not use them again as £26 for two meals is not cheap & it went straight in the bin.

Every time I order from here the food is delicious. Quality ingredients, tasty food, big portions.

This company is a SCAM they accept my order on Deliveroo then change it to collection only , then they told me to make a new order they will cancel the only one I then tried to make a new order and they reject me because apparently I am to far away from them or restaurant so I had to make a new order from a new restaurant? Completely a big SCAM! They just want to take money
