Starter's where lovely , duck was the best unfortunately the mains had mostly onion in very little meat in all the dishes we ordered. Quite a long wait 3 hours in total for a table of 4 .

The food was nice, however I would never go back to this Chinese restaurant ever again. The service was appalling. The starters came out after a little wait, and then we waited nearly an hour for the main dishes to arrive. They came out in dribs and drabs without the rice or noodles! Who wants main dishes without the rice or noodles. We then had to wait over 30 minutes for the rice and by this time the main dishes were freezing. When you complain to the manager, she argues back with you and is rude about the whole situation. We did not get an apology at all. We wanted to order more food as the portion sizes are small but we couldn't as they were about to close by the time everything came out! We were there over 2 hours. I would not even give 1 star but you have to. Avoid this place!!

Terrible experience.Table booked for 9 was only set up for 8 when we arrived.Told us to order duck before starters because there was a wait, the duck was chopped up not shredded, they only gave us 6 pancakes which were gone in seconds and we had to request more. It took 15 minutes to get more pancakes and they brought another 6. For a table of 9.The starters came about 20 minutes later but they didn't all arrive and the portions were tiny.We had been sat for an hour and 10 minutes before we were able to order mains and drinks refills which took another half an hour to arrive and there were still starters that hadnt came out.The staff were nice but they seemed clueless and confused. They had no idea what we had ordered and what they had already brought out.We ordered crispy wontons which came out flat with no filling. We were told that is how they come. Basically just deep fried pancakes and sauce. I've never eaten Chinese food where the wontons weren't parcels stuffed with either meat or veg. And even if they were supposed to come like that, by the time we got them we had been without any food on the table to about 10 minutes and it would be at least another 10 minutes after they were gone that any other dishes came out, and there wasn't even enough for 1 per person.When the meal was finally over we were given a discount for our troubles of £11 off a bill in excess of £250. We refused and after a long discussion with the staff got a bigger discount.This was the worst service I've ever had in a restaurant and the food was mediocre at best.Do not go here.

Lovely Chinese restaurant in Gloucester. They got a variety of oriental dishes to offer. They have £19.90 all you can order menu as well as Ala carte menu. So, make sure you ask for the Ala carte menu if they don't offer you a one. We tried mixed meat fried rice, chicken vermicelli noodles, Szechuan style chicken & spring rolls. All items were delicious, served hot. The rice dish could have been bit bigger. The restaurant is cozy, tidy & pleasant. I would like to recommend this Chinese restaurant to anyone. Thanks

Horrible experience with their takeaway service.Was not aware thar they are running that *and* a buffet service, which explains two hour plus cook times on dishes.The food was not bad, but not as good as some other local eateries, but it was luke warm on arrival, and, to add insult to injury, I cut my mouth on bones in the shredded duck. I am not contacting them about it - given the attitude I got on the phone, I'll no doubt be told I'm wrong.Despite arguing half an hour before they were just delivering it

Went for my boyfriends birthday on a Wednesday night so was quite quiet however the food was fantastic and the staff were quick and available whenever we needed them. It’s a lovely place and the food is fantastic for the money. I’ve been coming here for years with my family and recently it really needs some recognition. An all you can eat FRESH Chinese food restaurant, you really can’t go wrong.

This place was once one of the nicest Chinese restaurants in Gloucester. Sadly those days have long gone, the food was edible, but bland and very, very salty. The service was ridiculously slow, we had to wait nearly 45 minutes for any food to arrive (the restaurant was a quarter full so it wasn't because it was busy). Our table was generally left messy (in a table service all you can eat you'd expect it to be cleared as you go along). Very disappointing. Prior to my most recent trip I've been twice in the last 3 years in the hope that it might have been a blip, but sadly this will be my last visit. It's clear Blossoms is definitely not what it once was, what a shame

Never again ! Ordered on 26/10/21. The quality of the food was not good. Very bland, no taste at all. The Satay Chicken was literally just a portion of chicken in a watery liquid. Couldnt taste any trace of peanut. As for the soup, had to throw away as the liquid tasted like dish water. Not good at all. Wont be ordering from here again. Only ordered as my regular Chinese was closed.
