Taste of China Chinese Takeaway — Local services in Southampton

*Please see other reviews below this one. They clearly describe the owner the same as I have. I ordered from here at 1730pm this evening for delivery. The driver arrived at my NHS workplace and called me. I missed the call but called straight back within 5 seconds. I was told the driver was gone to his next order and he would be back with me within 10 minutes. After 40 minutes, I called again. The owner told me the traffic was too bad to send the driver back and stated the driver wouldn't make it. I asked if he was cancelling the order and he said ''only if you say so''. I attempted to explain that it would take me much longer now to order again and I had to complete the rest of my shift without food and why he had advised 10 minutes when he knew this wouldn't be the case? He became aggressive and started shouting down the phone. He said he never delivers to NHS staff and premises as it is too much hassle. That's his prerogative but why take my order in the first place and deliver previous orders if it was too much hassle? I then asked him how I would get my refund and he slammed the phone down. When I advised I would leave a bad review for this experience, he said he would get it removed no matter what forum it was on. Seriously? I wouldn't bother. Their attitude and aggression is completely...

For the last decade, every single Saturday, I've been in a committed relationship with Taste of China in Southampton. That’s right, while others were getting married, having kids, and climbing corporate ladders, I was living my best life strolling into Taste of China and picking up my weekly dose of happiness.

Their curry? If heaven had a flavor, it would taste like that. I’m convinced there’s some sort of sorcery involved, but I’m not asking questions. And the chow mein? Let’s just say if it were legal to marry noodles, I’d be browsing wedding venues right now.

I’ve been collecting my order with the kind of consistency that would make the Royal Mail jealous. Rain or shine, I’m there at the counter like clockwork. I’m pretty sure they could recognize me by silhouette at this point. Sometimes I wonder if I’m on their Christmas card list.

In short, if you want your taste buds to feel like they've won the lottery, head over to Taste of China. Tell them I sent you, I’m practically part of the...

I spent over the order limit, should have had a bottle of drink or you should get something free I never did , I did mention on the phone to the guy about the bottle of drink, he said yes yes yes no problem will chuck you in a bottle. My food turned up no bottle of drink I called the takeaway back up and mention I did not get giving my drink, the guy was really rude to me telling me I never asked for a bottle of drink as he would normally write down, I said to him are you calling me a liar and he tried arguing with me telling me I did not ask for the bottle of drink I know I clearly did. So not only does this Chinese false advertisement on the menu saying you should get something free even when you ask you will get called a lair when something is missing. Would not surprise me if I get a reply making out it’s an old menu next 😡 shocking as I’ve ordered from this place so many time regular customer will be going...
