This is genuinely the best Chinese takeaway available in Leicester so I’m confused by the low rating. We’ve been going for several years and absolutely love it. This is truly elevated Chinese food, not your average dishes - I highly recommend
Overpriced, though I like spicy food, the takeaway chicken dish was hotter than an Indian Vindaloo ! I was disappointed that the chicken was boned. The menu looked good but too expensive, I was restricted in choice as they don,t accept cards. Their sitting clientele appear to be young Chinese, possibly students. If so they must be very wealthy students. I won,t return. Sadly their predecessors of 25 years ago were great and there used to be a good " chippy " next door. Highfield Street has gone downhill.
Absolutely avoid. Lacks flavour, seasoning and any taste at all. Sauce is flavourless. Missing items. Rushed order, no love or heart in the food. Clearly not put any effort whatsoever into making it. Seen similar reviews elsewhere and think the place has gone downhill.
Food is amazing and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend the thick soup (bone broth) all you can eat hot pot for £22! (£18 on wed and Thurs). The picture below was the best dish.
Literally such a dull customer service, The order was placed, and then they canceled the delivery. The money was never refunded, calls were never answered. After 17 phone calls finally someone answers it. The response about the order was literally unexpected, " MY CALL WAS SLAMMED" I tried to reach them again, one of the employee picks it up and leaves me hanging on the call, after my wait for 12 minutes, I disconnected the call. For third time someone answers saying they have no idea about the order. I asked them if they could deliver it without the refund, the response was unfortunate. Stunned with response and the way you guys handle the business, I had to put an effort to leave this review..... RED LANTERN get your business etiquettes right...….
Reconsider if you are looking for Chinese food in Leicester. Their food are straight from Chinese supermarket freezers to your dining table. Please do expect some extra chewy frozen meat in your hotpot and DIARRHEA.
Amazing, authentic and delicious, mostly northern Chinese food. Hotpot also available as an option which is fun for groups and makes for a fun, interactive and healthy meal. Hosts and servers are all very welcoming and friendly, will do a lot to be accommodating.
Very nice experience, especially clean toilet. Although the location is a bit hard to find but really accurate on the map. The flavor of hotpot is traditional Northern taste. Good choice if you want have a try with traditional Chinese flavor. Love the lamb barbecue and seasonal vegetables. Price is also reasonable for hotpot. I would come back again very soon. 5 star recommended.
(AVOID) I place an order via Deliveroo. I received the wrong order. When I called the restaurant, a Chinese lady picked up and said she will get someone to give me a call back? Someone called me back after 40 min, he simply said contact Deliveroo and ask for a refund. He did not offer to re-deliver the food or anything. My night ruined, finally managed to get through to Deliveroo and got my refund. AVOID this his takeaway! They don’t care about the customer and will get your order wrong!
