Ying’s Thai Takeaway

Read about this place on social media and thought I'd give it a try as it seemed to have good reviews and I thoroughly enjoy Thai food.I telephoned my order for collection and found the service to be fine with my food being ready on time.Unfortunately, my positive experiences of Ying's ends there.Both my wife and myself found the food to be overly priced, greasy and fairly tasteless while completely lacking the delicate aromas and flavours of genuine Thai cuisine.Sadly, I can only assume the word Thai is used in their name as perhaps the chef wears a tie whilst cooking.By all means give it a try, you never know. Hopefully, your experience might be better than mine... I doubt it could be much worse.

Finally! After years of searching...we have found a really really good Thai takeaway! Great quality meat, everything was really tasty and well made. Will 100% order again and recommend to everyone! Lush!

Fantastic Thai food. Had the salt and chilli squid, then the beef red curry with Jasmine rice and Thai prawn crackers. Everything was amazingly spiced and very tasty. Up there with the best Thai food I have had. We will be back.

beautiful flavours i got the thai box i loved the satay chicken and sauces delicious :) also it came very quickly

Best takeaway in Sunderland and probably the best Thai takeaway in the country, there's a reason you often need to pre order. Reliable and consistent service.The duck & panang curries are amazing, as is the belly pork.

Just tryed this for the first time.. Omg what beautiful food we will definitely be back, so fresh and tasty

Ordered from them a few weeks back.It took 2hours 30minutes to get my order, was still warm though, and the food was good.I don’t understand booking for “wok” time, I’ve never ordered from a take away restaurant that you can’t pick up in about 20/30 minutes but at yings I’ve been quoted 2/3 hours for collection and that’s if I can order at all.There seems to be some poor management with cooking, or not enough staff.My wife is from Thailand and we really enjoy Thai food, if Yings could sort out there delivery/collection/wok time, we would order every week. I understand everything is cooked fresh, but I’ve lived in Thailand and Thai food can be cooked up quite quickly.This review ment to try and help Yings gain more customers by reading my review and making changes, but who knows if that will happen?

Last weekend was the first time we've used this place and chose it based on other reviews. All our tastes vary so I'll be as objective as possible. My wife doesn't like spicy food so opted for vegetable spring rolls followed by stir fry satay mixed seafood egg fried rice both of which she enjoyed very much. I went for spiced belly pork to start which was good and followed that with mixed seafood special with coconut rice and found it disappointing. It was not spicy at all and the sauce it was in far too watery.

Absolutely delicious food. Delivery was early which was great and food was piping hot, portions are really good size however definitely on the pricey side. The honey chilli chicken is amazing, chips are delicious and home made, massaman was really tasty however for the price i expected chunks of meat rather than slices and the slices were slightly dry, i think chunks would be a lot more moist. Overall very good takeaway and will definitely be ordering again for a one off treat.
