"Do not go here if you want to avoid days of suffering from food poisoning. The food also doesn't taste good. They over spice to cover up days old food. The food is not fresh. If you buy from here, your food will be ready in 2 minutes because they microwave everything from food made days ago. STAY AWAY"

"Ordered the crispy chicken chow mein (tasteless, no flavour at all), satay chicken skewers (sauce was mostly oil, didn’t taste like peanuts at all, chicken was dry and chewy), special curry (nothing special about it, didn’t taste like curry, more floury than curry. Chicken was dry. Pork was chewy and tasteless. Had to add own seasonings to make it palatable), prawn toast and spring rolls were average. Overall an extremely disappointing experience from a usually great place, gone very downhill."

"I have visited Easto three times now and each time I have had a fantastic meal. The food is tasty and the portions are very generous. Just when you think you have finished a course, another delicious dish is brought out. I highly recommend this restaurant."

"I ordered just after 5pm when they opened so had high hopes of hot fresh food. Bitterly disappointed. Yak!!!! The sauces were cold and the food was barley warm and had zero flavour. No flavour!!!!! ALL the food I ordered tasted like it had been in the freezer for years and heated up as the order comes in. I just want this food out my body. I don’t even want to drive past this place as the memory of what I ate might come back. Horrible. Horrible food. Ugh To end on a positive, (because I’m nice) the portions were a decent size, (not that it mattered, no one like the food)."

"After I had passed the siam cottage for many years a day, but set on our way with another near-by-paurier, I decided one day to review their reviews online. there were a couple who had lived in Thailand for many years, but now live. in perth. they said they often make the 4 hours round trip to eat here, as there are “the most authentic Thai aromes they have tasted with Thai” (or words to this effect). with a selection of Thai Chinese dresses it offers for the whole family. I was always a chicken panang or pad thai type, with my partner more in lemon chicken or similar Chinese dishes. in the course of the years we have worked quite a lot on our wise, although the takeaway menu, various dishes that we otherwise do not have. since every court we have tried was excellent, it is encouraged to take a leap of faith try something new every time. our personal favorite is just now the chicken cashew thai style...a taste sensation! The chicken panang is on the same with everything I tasted in Thailand. the service is always excellent, delivery fast we have a smile a chat at the door hit when it comes. price is also very reasonable in consideration of the portion size, for restaurant quality eat directly to their door, it will not be much better than siam cottage. when collecting an order a night from the restaurant, I noticed that the dishes were delivered to tables, looked out raised, very well presented huge portions. the personal was also very attentively friendly. although in the decor in restaurant, we do not tend to visit restaurants for their facility anyway. we visit eating that customer service is confident that a visit would exceed our expectations. we have not sampled many starters/deserts from the Takeaway menu, so can not comment so much on them. we got starters as soon as they were beautiful, but with the portion size they get on their net pages....3 net, a part rice a part bohnenprout nudeln is a fixed for a family of 4 (two adult, two children). we look forward to our next taste feeling. keep them good work."

"I've been here a few times. Food is always good. It isn't super-cheap, but it's certainly not extortionate either and portions are generous. Good for a nice meal out, and a bit different from Oxford's usual eateries. It's an interesting building too, which makes for an interesting ambiance. However, this particular meal was slightly hampered in that respect by a large (very noisy) table next to us on their Christmas do. I'm sure it was a one-off, but the restaurant might want to think about how to accommodate parties like that in future, without detracting from other people's experience. I'd still go back though."

"As for the food, I've been ordering the black buzzing chicken with fried rice for the past 2-3 years, and it’s always delicious! The portion sizes are generous, so I usually can’t finish it in one sitting, which gives me leftovers for later. The vegetarian spring rolls are decent, but I prefer the unrolled version. I also enjoy their crispy aromatic duck from time to time. They often run promotions on Deliveroo, like offering free Aperol cocktail sets (which was a thing back in 2021) along with complimentary beer, desserts, soft drinks, and more. I’ll be happy to update my review to a 5/5 once the hygiene inspection is completed!"

"Very disappointing experience. I love PF Chang in the US so I was excited to find it in London and see my favourite dishes on the menu. That was as close as it got to the real thing! Lettuce wraps were too smoky. Chicken dumplings were tasty. Mongolian beef chewy and seasoning was all wrong with a lot of raw spring onions thrown in and that was it. Orange chicken was very soft and sauce gluey. Both main courses felt like they’d been sitting on the side for too long before being served. We were not offered a second drink despite our glasses being empty from after our starters. When I ordered my first drink, I had asked the waitress that I was interested in 3 cocktails and asked her opinion which she gave and it was delicious. A savvy waitress would have come back to see if we wanted to try the others! She also didn’t offer desserts or coffee so we had desserts elsewhere. It wasn’t a bad experience, just disappointing. Will not be returning."

"Ichiban Fusion is a staple restaurant for us. The menu is simple and straightforward, food is excellent and prices are decent. Staff are always friendly, and we’ve only once ever had an issue with an order (one plate of food being forgotten about). Having dined...there a lot, one issue isn’t a big deal, and it was sorted very quickly. Personal favs are chicken tempura and chicken yakisoba but the menu is varied and caters for a wide range of palettes and choices. Vegetarian dishes are available, and both alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks are available. And excellent place to eat, all in. The tables are long communal types, but generous with space and access, and baby seats are provided also should you require, so nice and child friendly too. Prices are reasonable, a meal for three with drinks will typically be in the category for the group. Portion sizes are good and food is delivered quickly. It’s a struggle to get Japanese food that’s even close to the real thing having worked in Japan, I like the cuisine. Ichiban Fusion is as close as I’ve came to Japanese food in Scotland. And excellent place to eat."

"It's been a long time since my last visit to this restaurant. The first time I went, I was a bit hesitant about the cash-only policy and while the food was good, I felt that something was lacking. However, I ordered takeout from there two weeks ago and the food was fantastic! The portion size was generous and the prices were very reasonable. I will definitely be ordering from them again."

"The Skylark is situated in a great location for a meal before a night out in Croydon. However, the atmosphere is not exactly upscale; I would even say it is family-friendly. Parking can be a bit tricky to find, so walking or taking the bus is a good option for locals. The food options often include a free beer, which is a nice touch. Many people rave about the fish and chips, but I haven't tried it yet as it seems quite heavy. I am, however, a big fan of the decent BBQ hot dog."

"We ordered the hot pot for three people and received a large pot of soup filled with meat, seafood, vegetables, and rice. It was incredible! None of us had ever tried hot pot before, and it was our first time experiencing Chinese cuisine as a family. We ended up loving it. I'm already thinking about celebrating my birthday with my family at this restaurant in December."

"This place was recommended by one of the owners of the hotel we were staying at and we are glad we took his advice. The menu was varied and interesting including Chinese, Japanese and Thai cuisine. I chose a Japanese beer that I had never had before and a green chicken Thai curry. The drink was acceptable but the meal was exceptional. It was the best Thai green curry I have had since visiting Thailand. My wife had a glass of the house white wine that was ok and ate beef with spring onions and ginger and again the food was delicious. To follow I had a variety of ice creams including one matcha green tea ice cream which again I had never tried before but would certainly have again. My wife had jasmine tea. The waiter was attentive and efficient and although he had a little problem with language we all managed to make ourselves understood. Food was well presented, hot and full of flavour. The whole meal came to just £39.20 which we felt was very reasonable considering the excellent, tasty food we had eaten. If you’re looking for lovely food and good service this is the place to visit."

"We visited Lu Ban on the first day of Eat Out to Help Out and had the set tasting menu which was only £10 as part of the scheme. Social distancing was adhered to, there were plenty of sanitising stations, not too busy. Anyway...the food! It was fantastic, 9 courses including the prawn crackers to start. Every course was tasty and beautifully presented, really special. Thanks to Lu Ban for making such an effort to support the scheme."

"I was really blessed to visit her again in this trip because this was one of my favorite places when I was in cambridge uni. Not only large fresh seafood and Szechuan/Sichuan cuisine, they also offer £22 ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT hotpot with a lot of meat and vegetables! they can cook up to 2 soup bases from hot spicy let me share some of my favorites that I recommend to them, not miss: bark meat: awesome quality, not chewing, but tender juicy -fish fillet: omg super good delicious, ideal for any suppen recording -fish tofu: already one of my favorite foods, and it is great here - kelp: crispy fresh, love this! MUST-TRY: -chilli crab -steamed scallop both are so fresh that they can tell about their texture. some parts of the crumb are pre-reduced, so it is easier to remove the shell. the main part in the middle is my favorite. it is super easy to remove, with just chiffre and super delicious. scallops are really nice and easy to eat. they are perfectly cooked and seasoned, whether they love spicy or not. they have the opportunity to cook them fresh with hotpot, but I especially recommend ordering them cooked because their spice is super nice. Finally, there are many Asian drinks to order. I have aloe vera and pflaumenteee, the extremely sensitive are!"

"Good Chinese Restaurant Where Chinese People Eat. I feel for these guys that they have a really good chef and nice friendly staff and a lot of lovely authentic Chinese food on the menu but a lot of people have given negative feedback for reasons that I couldn't find. Not too pretty from the outside but a great authentic Chinese experience on the inside. Ordered the Hot Pot with noodles or rice (see photos) for £15 per head for 2 people. You choose as much meat and fish and veg as you want from the list on the menu. It was like a Chinese Fondue, amazing and filling. Here's the problem for English speakers the Chinese food that everyone around you is eating looks amazing but the menus are difficult to read with a lot in Chinese and pictures for the more standard dishes with English subtext. The cook seems really good because the local Chinese people were eating gorgeous food served in exotic pots but the problem is getting to know what those dishes are. Ordering a sweet and sour from here does the place a dis service. If you want a Chinese experience then go for the Hot Pot. But don't put the ingredients all in at once because even the meat is cooked in 2 or 3 minutes so take your time like having a fondue."

"Delicious food with a smile. Great place, been there several times already with our family and each time left happy, our son loves those boiled beef and carrot dumplings, potstickers are brilliant, especially dipped in mixed soy and crushed chili sauces, tried couple of soups and the spicy beef soup is a little to hot for me, red roast ribs noodle soup is awesome though, of the special dishes Ma Po Tofu and minced pork served with rice does me the best, oh and those char-sui or beef and carrot buns are definitely worth trying when you are waiting for the main, remember to try it with the soy sauce, char-sui is a tad on a sweet side but for my taste goes awesome with the soy sauce and...read more"
