Oriental restaurant in Nottingham

“Spare ribs. The hallmark of a top tier Chinese takeaway is the quality of the spare ribs and these guys seem to roast them fresh each night. They are truly bloody exquisitely tender and juicy. They have been consistently perfect for the past 3 years that we've been ordering from them. Vast majority of Chinese takeaways batch cook then and reheat them and the result is dry and tough. Everything is delicious here and portions/price is fantastic value. Bless these guys.”

“Absolutely superb. Warm, welcoming staff and fabulous food. Only sad it's no longer catering for sit down meals, but the takeaway meals really are recommended. We go frequently. You won't be disappointed.”

“We ate here on New Year’s Eve without a booking, and they still managed to squeeze us in — which was much appreciated. Definitely an under-appreciated little spot. Although we were tucked into a corner, the food and service were almost perfect. I may have gone a bit overboard with the number of small plates, but dish after dish impressed us both. The prawn tempura were lovely and crunchy, with beautifully tender prawns inside. The pork bao was incredible, with subtle hints of wasabi. For me though, the pork ribs were the star of the dinner — sweet, sticky, and falling straight off the bone. An absolute must-order. Special mention also to the sweetcorn ribs, which were excellent. Will definitely be returning!”

“Lovely little cafe at the back of the oriental mart. Food is delicious and served very quickly. Bubble tea is also very tasty. Service is friendly and efficient. It seems to be set up more for takeaway but there are a few comfy stools facing the window for people wanting to eat in.”

“I recently ordered from this store online and was very happy with my experience. The customer service was exceptional, and the selection of products was fantastic. My order arrived quickly and was well-packaged. I’m very pleased with my experience and will definitely be returning to shop again. Thank you!”

“I took my sister for a birthday meal as she said she liked sushi. My sister was blown away by the sushi we shared and her main. The first bite was packed with delicious flavours and textures that I know sushi to be. I went for something other than the Red Thai Curry (my usual order when I visit as it is also absolutely amazing), the Malaysian Chicken Curry. The spices were phenomenal and the chicken was deliciously tender. You could easily pay for cheaper sushi elsewhere, but i guarantee you are missing out on a wonderful experience at Pan Asia. There're still so many options I want to try on the menu so I guess I have no choice but to return.”

“Very professional service Reasonable prices There’s a restaurant on the top which is one of the cleanest and the most delicious food I have ever had(from shawarma to grills to pastries) Try it as you won’t regret it”

“I have been coming to this store for over five years and I love it. They have an amazing selection of goods for a relatively small store and I can always find what I want. The staff are always really friendly and helpful when asked (but not pushy), so the reviews saying they experienced poor service do not ring true to me. Perhaps those reviewers were rude or noisy? I recommend visiting and forming your own opinion.”

“Only started coming late 2023 and it's been my frequent go to spot for a takeaway! The food is delicious. Genuinely the best takeaway I have ever had. Always friendly service, very polite and they're quick with the food as well! And best of all, they're greener than most! If you're looking for something different I'd 100% recommend Chao Choa.”

“Love this place. Restaurant quality food delivered to your door is what you get here. Look at the attention to detail they put into their packaging, you know the food inside is going to have the same detail added to it.”

“Absolutely delicious food, big portions, and efficient, helpful service. I didn't finish my main, so I took it home and am in the middle of enjoying my leftovers for lunch the next day! They were very helpful in handling my allergy, too.”

“I've known this family run buainess since the early 80's, best by far”

“I recently visited New China City as part of a Chinese takeaway tour I’m doing and this one is up there with the best. The special chow mein was great quality, well seasoned with soy and had lots of chicken and king prawns in it whilst the crispy beef was in a sweet and spicy sauce.”

“The best of the best. Been eating from here for way over 10 years. Amazing”

“You don’t get fresh muscles (in satay sauce) like this from anywhere locally. The beef and mushroom curry was beautiful. The meat wasn’t chewy at all, like most Chinese take aways. The delivery time was less than 30 mins! Delivery driver always so polite!”

“Always great food and arrives hot! Customer service is on point, had one issue and they was happy to negotiate… highly recommend”

“Decided to try again as we hadnt been for some time and we weren't disappointed the food was delicious Probably ate too much but with the banquet menu you get great choice”

“Absolutely incredible service! Came in on Saturday and staff member Tom was amazing. He made sure everything was taken care of and gave us good recommendations for our first visit. Highly recommend to anyone in the area!”

“Oh my goodness, that was absolutely delicious! And such big portions. Crispy Salt & Pepper King Prawns for me, Curry Vegetable Mix for my hubby, a large egg fried rice between us and enough leftover to feed another two people. £12 and some odd pence was well worth it! Thank you for a very filling and tasty 'Fish Friday' dinner.”

“Wings done correctly! Been a long time fan of the business since its Leicester days, and truly proud to see it elevated to a commercial setting. The flavours are as sumptuous as ever. The saucy wings remain just as crispy. The design, atmosphere and staff are all welcoming. Put that all together and you have a fantastic experience. Not to mention a wider variety of food choices compared to its first iteration. This is the product of someone who's really put their passion for food into a business designed to put a smile on people's faces. Absolutely amazing!”

“The Chinese style food is always nice from here. I had never in all my years ordered an English dish from a Chinese establishment, the other day i got a sirloin steak which came with peas, gravy, onion rings and chips. Absolutely delicious and constantly craving it again!”

“This is the only Chinese takeaway I will eat from. I love their lunchbox 3 in 1 / 4 in 1 deals. Great value for money and so tasty. Their curry sauce is second to none! Would defiantly recommend!!”

“Run by a lovely woman. Perfect sized portion, delicious and safe. The food leans on the more traditional side rather than the British Chinese takeaway that most people imagine. The only possible downside was the packaging but that was more my fault than theirs. The place has a lovely vibe inside too with lots of space to sit and wait for food.”

“Best Chinese takeaway we've ever had. Really great vegetarian selection with lots of fresh vegetables and meat meals were lovely too. Will return.”

“First tried their food and surprisingly the food taste authentic, reasonable price and the portion is massive too! I definitely will go back again!”

“Fantastic food. Reasonable prices. Unbelievably fast delivery. Highly recommended. 10/10. Thank you. Dean. Harewood Avenue.”

“I love my Chinese and this is the best by far. I have ordered from here every week and it's always superb”

“Taste counts, and here I enjoyed my meal with plenty to go around, arrived hot and in good sized containers too. Dont judge the outside folks as this is just like a book, step in and try, enjoy !”
