The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Argyll & Bute Central Scotland

I am continuing my trip around Helensburgh's restaurants and takeaways. I think I need my own food critique job! 😁 Have always avoided Magic Wok as it doesn't have great ķèrb appeal. However, I saw the other reviews and most seemed positive. I always judge a Chinese by it's chicken and sweetcorn soup, just to keep a consistent order. Was very nice. Chicken cashew nuts were a little salty but perfectly edible. Honey chicken was a little dry but my fault as I didn't realise it didn't come with a sauce. Rice lovely and complimentary prawn crackers. Would definitely order again.

Food is amazing highly recommend

Food was very nice and was ready quickly, only thing that let it down was the sweet and sour sauce tasted more like tomato ketchup

Absolutely delicious take away tonight. We had Chicken Tikka Balti Rogan and chicken tikka masala with rice and garlic naan. The chicken was so well cooked, proper tikka recipe. Everything was so good - highly recommended.

Just finished a fantastic meal delivered to the Anchor Tavern. Great food huge portions great value. Well done Sea Dragon.

Ribs were tender and the fried rice also highly recommend. If you can't get a table in one of the restaurants this is a great alternative.

Celebrated my 66th Birthday here with family, The staff could not have been more helpful and the food was perfect, there were 13 in our party and everyone got what they wanted and were very happy with the food and service. The place looks a wee bit dated and the stairs are a killer but it was not pretentious and the food is better than some of the other fancy expensive establishments in Helensburgh.

I went in and the people were very nice and the food came really quickly but it was quite expensive and it smelt quite bad inside

We decided to have dinner here as we had eaten here before a few years ago and it was good. However this time was not good. We asked if they had a table and they sat us by the window, the restaurant was not busy at all, there were plenty empty tables. When our food came out it looked ok but on tasting it, it was very bland, totally lacking in flavour and the chicken in my jalfrezi was possibly the worse meat I had tasted, I practically left it all. My husband said that his was just as bad. The best thing about the meal was the nan bread. If that wasn’t bad enough, one of the staff then came over and said ‘If you could leave once you finish your drinks, we need the table’ How rude! As I said the place was practically empty and we hadn’t asked to be seated there. This place has went right down hill since our last visit, it looks tatty and tired and in need of a refurb. We will not be back.

Brilliant service,and great food.

The restaurant is currently closed and doesn’t look like it will be opening anytime soon

Hi my name's Ryan Woodrow This is my go to Chinese visit at least 5 times a week sometimes more Can't fault the food or the service Just wish they were open between 2 and 5

To summarise this experience, one would say it’s not my finest hour. The order contained chicken balls which were slightly below mums cooking tbf but I’d recommend the prawn crackers if u got covid or smt cause they taste like the bag they come in. 5 Stars for the atmosphere, I didn’t collect but i’m sure it was aight. 5 stars

Top food and well priced unlike some of the rip of restaurants on Islay and I would highly recommend Oh and no service charge lol 💚💚💚

Sadly seems to have closed down. Very much miss the owner and his lovely handmade food. The best indian restaurant and takeway. Traditional classic dishes plus extra new exciting treats always on offer.
