Orchids Takeaway

Best Chinese in this part of the Southside for sure. Nice to have vegetarian options which don't skip the important protein element (hooray for tofu!) Delivery is always quick although we're so close we generally go and collect. Portions crazy generous and normally do us two meals.

Worst place didn’t even deliver my order made me wait over 1 hour.

Ordered delivery. Food came quickly and was piping hot. But wonton soup had no flavour and my beef with ginger and spring onion was so sweet it was like a dessert. It's like they used sugar instead of salt or something. Inedible

Was good a couple of years back. Now pretty rank.Their mains all taste the same. Their ribs are just lumps of fatty gristle, not actual ribs. When I called them about that they said, yeah sorry, that's what the chef does.New management trying to get it sorted maybe, but half of what we ordered went in the bin.Used to be good. Currently awful. Here's hoping they get it sorted.Photo is of the 'ribs'...

Ordered our food to take away the Scottish woman at the counter seemed to struggle with the 3 items I ordered. We got the food up the road and it turns out they had given us the wrong sauce. I took it back and highlighted the problem where they proceeded to take the sauce to replace it. I emphasised that if they were just replacing the sauce then I'd like a refund because it would be cold by the time I get it back up the road. At this point my request seemed absurd and I was the one made to feel at fault.I returned home with the supposedly replaced correct order this time.It wasn't a replacement... it had very obviously been re-fried. Chips dry and too crispy and chicken tough and overcooked. Slight burnt taste.I don't really want to go down there for a third time. I'll just cut my losses and avoid next time.

Ordered a prawn curry and fried rice curry sauce was absolutely disgusting curry sauce was sweet used to be nice definitely won't be returning

The Orchid was the first Chinese I ever went to with my partner. It used to be lovely, the food was perfect, the delivery time on point.The key words here: 'Used to be.Said partner and I got food from here tonight

One star is the lowest I can give in this review the people in the kitchen apparently have no idea of what they are ment to be cooking think they probably don't speak English selling food under false pretenses got some brown sauce with some uncooky vegetables in it would recommend you use other carryout third attempt must be stupid..

Lucky to be getting 1 star. My order was over 2 and a half hours late, everytime I phoned for a update I was told 10minutes while the person was getting more annoyed he eventually hung up on me without saying sorry and the driver put my food at the door chapped and ran off, the food was freezing

Never had a bad meal from here, the Salt & Chilli chicken with honey sauce is particularly good. I always collect, never any issues.
