Cinta — Restaurant in Huntingdonshire

We tried to get a table but it was fully booked so we thought that was a good sign. So we opted to get a takeaway, was told it will be ready in 20mins so we gave it another 10mins and drove there 30mins after the order was placed. When we got there we were told another 20min wait so we walked back to the car and waited, after 20 minutes we went in and we were made to wait another 10 minutes, so a total of 1 hour for the food. By this time we were starving and we were expecting authentic Asian food, judging from the staff and the reviews. What a let down, the only thing they got right was the crispy seaweed, and the prawn crackers, (you can't go wrong with these because anyone can make it) other things we ordered, prawn sambal, mussels in black bean sauce, chicken stir fry, seafood starters, had no distinct flavour and you couldn't tell the difference between all of them because it tasted all the same, even MSG couldn't save it. The only reason the restaurant was packed was because there were no other restaurants in town. You would at least expect they would do a better job if they want people to come back. From an Asian perspective, it is as bland as plain...

Of all the Asian food establishments I have eaten at throughout Europe and the USA (and I have eaten at hundreds of them), this one is the absolute BEST. The decor, cleanliness, service, quality of food, presentation, and taste was Over the Top. The Smoked Tea Chicken and Deep Fried Prawns with Lemon Sauce were Excellent. The portion sizes could have been more, but Hands down, the dining experience is Second to None. My party and I will definitely be returning. I will recommend them to everyone I know looking for a quality dining experience from start to finish. Thank you, Cinta. Wishing you blessings and continued success. People...Do yourselves a...

Update! One year later… AVOID!!!!!! The food here is now really bad. Both lamb and beef dishes were bland and had a really weird soft texture, it was like soft lumps of something, not even sure what it was. Maybe the meat was soaked in corn starch or baking soda for years??? The Teriyaki beef fillet was a joke, it looked and tasted nothing like Teriyaki. The crispy tofu was extremely dry, almost like crunchy biscuit texture.

The ‘chef’ obviously had no clue what he is doing, or at least doesn't care for nice quality food served with pride.

I have the feeling this restaurant has a new ownership and they must be shameless to serve this...
