Lon Wah Restaurant in Basildon

I don't live anywhere near this establishment but I am seriously considering the journey to collect the food. Every time I have been fortunate enough to eat from here I have had a wonderful meal. It's quality is surpassed by none and I would heartily recommend anyone to change where you order from and try here. All too often from other establishments the food is bland and each dish is hardly discernable from each other. Order from here if you want to experience Chinese cuisine that is packed with flavour, variety and above all quality. You can tell that care is taken to ensure that your meals are consistently good with every order.

I have just spent nearly £50 in this Chinese takeaway and I totally regret it the food is so below average it is a joke if anything they should be shut down curry sauce taste disgusting chicken balls are hard Salt-N-Pepa chicken wings I'm not even worth eating Please do not get food from here

Just ordered our last takeaway from Lon WahThe quality of the food. We received was well below standard and almost inedibleThe meat was tough and chewy, chicken wings greasy and slimyThe vast majority of the food went straight in the bin. We have never done this beforeWe. Have used this restaurant/ takeaway for yearsStandards have been slipping for a while, tonight was the final strawWould definitely not recommend

Ordered for the 1st time yesterday...never again!! Pork was like chewing fat! And the sweet and sour chicken was tough and chewy.. unfortunately most ended up in the bin. Absolute waste of money and will never order from here again

Not good this week. Sweet and sour chicken balls, batter was stodgy, not crisp as usual. Chips seemed like they were yesterdays, reheated. Mushroom curry was set like jelly and I had to mix it before putting on my food. Chow mein was luke warm. Chicken satay skewers half the size of usual orders. All seemed as though it had been quickly reheated and definitely not cooked fresh. Arrived not more than 15 minutes after ordering, not a good sign, and was more expensive than a couple of weeks ago. Definitely not impressed. Will think twice before ordering from you again.

Lovely food and fast, friendly service. I don't go anywhere else for my Chinese food anymore. Highly recommend.

Superb authentic Chinese cuisine and attentive service. It truly is a fine dining experience. Owners are personable and friendly.

We met with friends at this place for lunch. my friend recommended this restaurant. Well, we were not disappointed. The staff welcomed us with a smile and we felt very good. The food was just great. We had a great time and we will definitely return to this restaurant. Warmly recommended.

Amazing food and great service. Broad menu cooked fresh. You could tatse the quality of the food. Cooked to order so if you're picky they're happy to amend for you. Recently refurbished inside and looking great. Would recommend eating in because the staff are fantastic and it's a nice evening, especially if you have a small group. Parking is available behind the restaurant but I'm not sure on who can use etc. Some park outside on the pavement however there is a pay and display at Co-Op / behind Dominos and The Ladygate Center which is just a minutes walk away.

After checking the reviews I used this restaurant's takeaway service. As the prices were quite high and the reviews were good I assumed the food would be of decent quality. The food was terrible. The chow mein was swimming. The chicken didn't taste like normal chicken and was weird. The only item that was ok was the crispy duck. Definitely wouldn't go back.
