Food was very tasty and came out quickly. It was a tad oily, however it is sometimes used to enhance flavours. Would definitely recommend and will be returning.
I’ve eaten at Magic Chef Chinese Restaurant in Egham six times now, as I run a business nearby and it’s become our go-to spot for both client lunches and my own quick work meals. Each visit, whether eating in as a group or grabbing something alone, has been consistently excellent—Magic Chef is one of those rare places where the food really stands out every single time. The quality of the food here is simply outstanding. Every dish I’ve tried has been delicious, always cooked perfectly and packed with authentic flavour. You can tell a lot of care goes into the cooking: the special fried rice is a standout, and dishes like Szechuan noodles show real attention to traditional Chinese recipes. There are some unique menu options you don’t find just anywhere, and it’s always exciting to discover something new—but what’s most impressive is that in all my visits, we have never had a bad meal. Service at Magic Chef is also great. The staff are genuinely friendly and welcoming, which has made it easy to host business guests and also means you feel comfortable coming by yourself. Orders come out promptly, and if you’re a regular you can sense an extra level of attention. While pricing can be on the higher side, it feels completely justified given the consistently high quality of the food and the overall dining experience. Perhaps the best thing about Magic Chef is the authenticity and skill in the kitchen: every meal tastes top-quality, fresh, and true to its roots, making it my favourite Chinese restaurant in the area by a long way. It’s a real gem for anyone working or dining in Egham, highly recommended for both business meals and casual visits alike
The food is okay, but if you are going to get a online delivery from this restaurant, i do not recommend it. They do not have a tracking driver option. Even though i pinpoint my location, the staff really likes to call you a lot just to know where to deliver. I was having work during then, so i can't pick up all the calls (there were 5 calls in total), and I got scolded at and mentioned that I could just pick up all the calls to tell them the location. If you are absolutely free to pick up a call an hour before, then that's fine. But if you only pick up one call when they arrive, really not recommended since they are pretty rude about it too.
Wonderful restaurant I really do not understand the negative reviews, my boyfriend and I ordered an array of different dishes and none of them were cold, oily or tasted as if they came out the freezer! The staff were very kind, they did not take long handing out our food and even gave us a plate of food free of charge which was wonderful, would come back here again!
Best Chinese restaurant in the area, by a long way.
Magic Wok is such a fantastic place to eat out in, parking available nearby in Egham High Street (free). Food was great (although slightly expensive but not as much as overpriced) and in great portions, also pretty authentic. Atmosphere was lovely and staff were friendly. Recommend.
Fantastic Chinese Restaurant in Egham. First of all, their Ice Lemon Tea is the closest thing to Swiss Migros Iced Tea (if you know, you know!) The shrimp fried rice was fine but needed some additional seasoning for my own taste. Chilli sauce and soy. The Duck was superb. I saw a table across from us having “hot pot” and looked truly delicious. No reservation needed. Staff were very friendly and fast.
Ordered crispy shredded beef in chili sauce and sweet and sour prawn balls. The crispy shredded beef was very crispy, however, this can be explained by the fact that it had virtually no sauce. The prawn balls themselves were ok but the sweet and sour sauce that came separately was unlike any sweet and sour sauce I've had - it had a brown colour instead of the usual red, wasn't sweet, and tasted and smelled strongly of vinegar. Very off-putting. Although this particular order is the second worst Chinese meal I have ever ordered, the reasons why I am not giving it 1 star is because they usually give a decent sized complementary bag of prawn crackers, previous orders haven't been as bad (they were average at most), and the food isn't as bad as 1423 China kitchen which is the worst Chinese food I have tasted. Edit: forgot to mention that the food is very overpriced for what it is.
