The 30 Best Romantic dinner in Orpington

“We have been here a few times now and honestly, it just keeps getting better and better. The staff is lovely and very accommodating. The food is absolutely delicious and probably some of the best Chinese food in the area. I have made my mission to try a new dish every time we go back just so that I can go through the whole menu. That’s how much I enjoyed it.”

“I’m the kebab dude in the Burberry shorts :) I told them I’d leave a review as my meal was phenomenal, the chicken kebab is to die for, you guys should put a big sign outside advertising it! You could go viral over a meal like that!”

“First visit and what a great first impression. Lovely food and atmosphere, service was exceptional. Visited with a friend for a lunch and both really happy with lunch menu. For starters we had mushroom crostini and bruschetta, for main veggie lasagna and chicken pasta. For desert we both chose cream brule. All was lovely and felt well looked after. Will definitely come back with family”

“An exquisite little gem with an amazing staff, delicious food and great drinks. Highly recommended!”

“Went for Christmas Day Lunch, with my wife and a friend. Food was hot, well cooked and well presented with decent quantities - no skimping! No issues whatsoever; apart from the fact that we may need to book months earlier next year! We are irregular customers, and have never had a reason to complain about anything over the years we have been using The Black Horse.”

“One of the best Chinese restaurants in Orpington. We ordered Tofu, and it was delicious, literally melting. The Pork and Chicken was really nice, it was recommended by the staff. The staff is really friendly. A reasonably priced restaurant must visit.”

“Lovely place even if you just catching up with some friends for a cup of coffee ☕ Really nice atmosphere and a freshly renovated interior!”

“Had a great time on Friday night at the Queens head. The pub was electric and the music was terrific, would very much recommend it. The staff were very friendly and efficient especially Jack the landlord and Tracey.”

“Never ordered from here before Glad we did food was delicious and delivered hot and fresh. The whole family enjoyed. Will definitely be ordering again”

“UPDATE TO BELOW REVIEW.. Just did another order, which they cancelled, when calling the guy claimed we are out of their delivery area and are too far. Which makes 0 sense. He was also blunt and emotionless. Also seemed to imply I was lying about ordering before.. shame after left such a good review lasttime. Will now seek elsewhere. ----- Orginal review below. If you're searching for the most authentic, flavour-packed Indian meal, look no further! This was, without a doubt, the most flavoursome Indian food I’ve ever had. The Lamb Tikka Phall was fiery and rich, bursting with bold spices yet beautifully balanced. The Chicken Chat Puri Starter (extra hot!) delivered a delightful kick with succulent, well-seasoned chicken wrapped in soft, warm puri—perfection! The Keema Rice was another knockout, infused with deliciously spiced minced meat and the perfect amount of heat. Every dish was cooked to absolute perfection, the sauce was thick and indulgent, the meat was tender and full of flavour, and everything arrived hot and steaming, just as it should. Timing was spot on, proving that they care about both quality and service. Of course, the papadam added that satisfying crunch to round off an unforgettable meal. A truly exceptional dining experience—I’ll definitely be ordering again! Highly recommend.”

“Food is absolutely delicious! 5 stars is not enough!”

“Excellent food, very generous portions, a number of traditional dishes beautifully presented. Catered for a lunch party of 30 people, very happy with the food quality, portions and friendly service. Would definitely use them again.”

“Great place , always friendly with us after we finished at the pub on a Friday. Welcoming and nice seated areas and meat quality is consistent. Surprised rating not near the high 4s.”

“I booked an afternoon tea in a pod for myself, my mum and my aunt today. I have to say that Fiona was absolutely AWESOME!! She attended to our every request with a smile and some great chatter. Fiona is a true asset to the Mulberry Tree at Ruxley! GIVE HER A RAISE!!! The food was outstanding too. A really lovely afternoon tea with the best scone I have ever had in my life. So thank you to Fiona for making our afternoon so special. And thanks to the kitchen for the beautiful food. I booked this afternoon tea as an early Mother’s Day treat and I am so glad we went. It was perfect and I highly recommend!”

“Excellent food. Have eaten here for the first time and it was a good experience. Staff was friendly. Great flavours. Really enjoyed the food. One suggestions: Toilets need more cleaning. Apart from this everything else was fabulous.”

“I have read lots of bad reviews for this place from years ago but I have been eating here for the last year and the foods great. Overall a 9/10, the egg fried rice is not great I must say. Great chowmein, salt and pepper dishes, sweet and sour dishes, all round a great restaurant and most of their dishes are amazing. Delivery time is a hit and miss, sometimes super fast, and other times when more busy they take longer than expected time, but food always arrives hot.”

“This is one of my favorite fast food store. I go here at least twice a week. They have great customer service and it’s burgers are very good quality. Great for value. I recommend going to this shop.”

“Have ordered from sun moon lake via deliveroo twice now and honestly this is one of the best, if not the best, Chinese takeaways I’ve ever had. Food always comes piping hot, packaged well and super quick. The chow mein is lovely, as well as the classics like sweet & sour chicken, salt & pepper chicken wings, chicken balls, spring rolls. All the fried stuff also arrives steaming hot & crispy btw which shows you how fresh everything is. 10000% recommend!”

“Delicious fish and chips, best I've had in a long long time. A huge piece to for just £9. Very friendly, highly recommend.”

“Absolutely fantastic. I had a take away yesterday - it was so good I came back again tonight and had exactly the same!!! Lovely people, great service and, most importantly, fabulous food. Without a doubt, the best Chinese food in the South East. Try it - you won't be disappointed. I've never written a review for take away before but these guys deserve having someone spreading the word. Ill be back there tomorrow!!!”

“Women that owns it was very rude and not a clue how to run it or how to cook”
