We were really looking forward to enjoying a quiet night in with delivery from Phoenix Court Chinese Restaurant in Hope Island, but unfortunately, the experience was quite disappointing.
Was the food good? Sadly, we didn’t get to properly enjoy it. The food itself may have been tasty, but it arrived in a mess. The delivery bags were leaking heavily, two of the boxes were completely soaked through and destroyed and the food had spilled out inside the white plastic bags. It was unappetising, messy and not what we expected for the price and reputation of this restaurant.
Was it a pickup or delivery? This was a delivery, not a pickup and it’s clear that the packaging was not suited for transport. A more secure and leak-proof method would have made a big difference.
Room for improvement? Definitely. We would really appreciate better care in packaging, especially for sauces and liquid-heavy dishes. It’s a simple fix that could greatly improve the customer experience.
Location: Phoenix Court is located at Hope Island Central, 340 Hope Island Rd and is usually known for its traditional Chinese cuisine but unfortunately due to our experience, we cannot recommend. We did do a big order but any order should be looked after carefully and not come as the mess that it did due to how food was packaged.
First impressions matter and this one sadly missed the mark.

Dined here because of its high rating and reviews but undoubtedly they write their own as there can be no other explanation. I have dined all over Asia and this is the worst by far. And heaven forbid you say anything to the manager/owner when asked if everything was ok, because then you are treated disgusting and like you are just trying to get something free or a discount, which wasn't the case. Surely I will get an unpleasant response..... Instead of improving. Update - the owner has no problem lieing and making up stories... I paid full price and we didn't eat most of the food. He put the leftovers in containers that I was going to feed to my dogs, but after complaining we didn't even get that, even though we paid for it. Bring on anything you want to because I have...
