To tell the truth, we were all very disappointed! If you remember when this was the Beijing, the food was freshly cooked, and plenty of it! Not so anymore!!! Everything was bland, tasteless, and not at all good on the eye! We ordered 4/5 initial starters, and asked for enough for 4 people. Whereas the old Beijing would bring out individual dishes, ours was all served up on one dinner plate!! The garlic mushrooms was a tiny little portion on the side of the plate, sprinkled with a few onions, and a couple of chillies! Not a steaming bowl of mushrooms swimming in chilli/garlic, as they used to be! I did ask the question.....to be told they don't do that anymore! But it's in the menu!!! Weird! The capital ribs....2 inch long bones!!! Someone forgot the meat! Salt and pepper squid,....3 or 4 pieces or what can only be described as 'old calamari'. Ugh! Spicy prawns,...straight out of a freezer bag, and dropped in a cauldron of fat! Let's not forget, all this on one normal sized dinner plate. We laughed!!!! The other 3 ordered a main meal,...not me though. I'd seen enough! One had a chow mein. (Boiled noodles) more like spaghetti. Covered in tomato sauce stuff! Ugh! One had prawn thai curry. Boiled prawns swimming in some coloured water! Shall I go on.....! What i should of mentioned right from the start, was as soon as we got our ,'starters', (so we were now committed to staying,...), we were told the kitchen would shut in 30 mins. Chop chop, hurry up!! Anyhoo....all said and done, cost us over £100, for the experience. Not going again. So save your money, and get a 'take in'. Yuk,... and double...
Read moreWe’ve eaten at Wing Tai many times since it changed from Beijing, always had very good service and lovely food. However, we visited on Friday the 30th of November 2018 for my sons 18th along with family and friends who had never been before. As soon as we arrived we found the staff to be abrupt. The restaurant was busy with only two members of waiting staff so maybe that’s why? The food was nice and everyone was having a good time until our friend pulled a black hair at least six inches long out of his duck pancake! We pointed it out to the waiter in a very polite and discreet way, he took the duck away but didn’t even apologise. I asked to speak to the manager who implied it was one of our hairs..... all ladies in our party were blonde so definitely wasn’t. He then refused to serve us anymore food and gave us the bill. £159 for 8 starters and our drinks. More than happy to pay for the drinks we had but not the meal after the disgusting level of service we received. Tried to reason with him but didn’t want to cause a scene or embarrass my son on his birthday so paid. No apology or concern shown about the hair by manager of this restaurant. We will not...
Read moreOrdered through just eat for 6pm, was amazed by the real low price for a set menu for one person as was sweet n sour balls, chix chop suey and egg rice for under a tenner! food arrived exactly 6pm, portions were massive! But the pork balls all were the driest , darkest cuts of meat, luckily i could drown then in sauce but still like chewing leather. The chop suey was better, the chicken was nice but it just didn't have much flavour tasted like watered down sweet n sour. The rice was hard, it was also very dry, when I decided I could not possibly eat anymore I had to rinse my mouth out multiple times to get out all the dry sticky mess between my gums and mouth walls. I am giving 2 stars because delivery driver was on time, the order was correct, the price was good and the portions are very generous just let down by the quality of my order. I hope this was a one off, as my parents tell me this is the only...
