Amazing chinese takeaway. Friendly staff. Delicious food. Great prices. A must try!
The gf and I decided to try this chinese takeaway after reading the good reviews and boy were we not disappointed. Generous portion sizes, savoury food, and enough to feed more than 2 despite us ordering the special set meal for two.
Food: Sesame Prawn on toast - Something even I as a Chinese never knew existed. The toast was slightly hard, but the prawn paste was generous.
Prawn crackers - Generous portion, enough for two meals, super crunchy and lightly fried, making it a really mouthwatering appetizer.
Chicken Chop Suey - Chop suey seems to be a dish unique to the UK/Europe. We don't have it in Singapore, but it was a good dish, filling, stuffed to the brim with ingredients, and savoury. Chicken was done well, not too dry and stringy.
Beef with Mushrooms - Amazing, tender beef, stir fried and slathered in strong savoury sauce with lots of mushrooms. A must try.
Egg fried rice (large) - Rice was done just right, not sticky, not dry. Ample fried eggs and fried rice was evenly fried.
Price: GBP 14.5/2pax
Service: We called in to order and pick up. Payment is at the restaurant. I believe they cook the rest after you pay, as I had to wait 20 mins after the time I was told I could pick the food up at.
Location: Strategically located along high street, easy access to the restaurant.
Would I recommend? Yes. Great place to have a meal with friends and family. Great takeaway....
Read moreWe ordered food from ‘the place’ tonight with a delivery time of 8.30. When we first ordered it said roughly an hours wait. Once we paid it jumped to 2 hours. We understood it must be busy and accepted that. 8.30 came and still no food. I waited until 9.00 and phoned them numerous of times but the phone was unplugged. We then got an update via just eat and said it has been delayed until 9.30! This is now getting to the point where it’s getting beyond a joke. 10pm arrives and they cancel our order! What a waste of 3 and a half hours! I will never be ordering food here and hope people read this.I wish I could give them lower then 1 star! AVOID!...
Read moreWe decided to try The Place rather than one of the other all you can eat Chinese restaurants in lincoln and were so happy we did. The food was amazing, some of the best Chinese food we've ever had (and we've been to China!!) the service was fast, and the staff were super friendly and helpful, it appeared to be a family run restaurant which is even nicer. Seriously couldn't recommend this place enough,...
