   I used to eat at this Chinese shop quit frequently, the food tasted okay. I randomly started getting ill and ended up going hospital after being diagnosed with Quinsy throat on two separate occasions. As soon as i stopped eating here, the infection stopped.

   When ordering Chinese, I find that everyone seems to do it slightly differently. For me and my family, this place is our go to. They have never failed to serve up anything more than enjoyable food. I tried the Beef in black bean sauce, and I was truly shocked at the amount of meat, not stringy fat and grissle, but actual beef, that they put in and it didn't even need chewing. Also plenty of veg as well. It was lovely. The rice was fresh and jam packed in the container. Prawn crackers and curry sauce are a favourite for us and there's has never let us down. Always fresh and never had any overcooked. The staff are always polite and friendly and today they went the extra mile and threw in some extra fortune cookies for the kids, which was unexpected but much appreciated. Thanks for a lovely meal!

   Real authentic Chinese food, when served we were greeted by a gorgeous young lady who catered to our needs and she gave us a good introduction to Chinese cuisine and current affairs in the Chinese domain. The meal was stunningly prepared and felt like it been prepared by a distant family member with the love and passion of coming from a long trip to your first home cooked meal after months away. The restaurant has the most interesting selection of fish and marine life that I’ve seen in a restaurant in my 35 years of living, the fish were an array of species and this was a refreshing sight to see on my very brief wait for my food. Will be returning with my family and friends for another meal soon, I’m also planning to use them for my 10 year wedding anniversary party. Love to all the team.

   Yesterday I placed an order and was given the wrong item at Real China takeaway on Lower Road. I’m confined to a wheelchair and was made to go back to exchange for correct order. I said to the guy who took the order Sweet and Sour Prawn Balls and was given a different sweet and sour dish. I’ve given them 1 star as they replaced with prawn balls. The woman was also incredibly arrogant and obnoxious while I was calm and pleasant.

   This is a standard poor quality British Chinese takeaway. The chicken satay was disgusting with a weird rectangle of chicken material that was very stringy. The seasame prawn toast had no prawn flavour. The beef and black bean wasn't terrible but didn't taste of much. I wouldn't order from here again.

   This has to be the worst Chinese food I’ve ever had the misfortune to taste. It was rice and water, with no flavour or sauce. Even the meat was green. Absolute waste of my money

   Had a chinese from here a couple of times and can honestly say it is one of the best in the area. The food is absolutely delicious especially the chicken balls, they give great portions too. It is like they cook the food with love. If i had to be picky and find criticism it would be that it takes a bit of time getting here but that is probably because the food is cooked to perfection. Other restaraunts should take note.

   Once this would have been 4 stars, but after last night I'm bumping it down. I used to love Real China - delicious, hot food, great prices and portions. Then I noticed the portion sizes were smaller - but not a big deal, it was still enough to fill you up. And then over the last few months the quality of food has declined, sometimes with me wondering if they've been properly cooked. Then last night I ordered Monks Vegetables and boiled rice. The rice was hard and cold, clearly not cooked properly, something I've noticed that has happened the last few months when ordering. The Monks Vegetables were inedible. The sauce was thick, gloopy, slimey and tasteless. Usually it's mostly tofu and brocolli and cabbage, no no, this time it was full of those long, yellow, rectangular vegetables that taste of nothing and are just used to fill it up. I emailed asking for a refund, only for these items and not the other I ordered, and have been ignored. Considering I was within my rights to ask for many refunds recently, giving the decline in quality of the food, the least they could do is answer me. So this lack of care for their customers is why I've lowered my rating and why I won't be ordering from them again.
