Best KPortal Reviews
This restaurant has really gone downhill. We had been getting takeaways from here for years but noticed over the last few months the food has deteriorated with dishes being bulked out with loads of veg etc, also bland compared how it used to be. Recently started getting the wrong food given to us when we get it home, really exasperating. To top it all the discount for collecting your own order has now been removed, its a rip off. Sadly will no longer be coming here, waste of money, bad food, incorrect orders, long wait times. Enough is enough.
We went for the first time since the change of owner on Friday (2.2.24) & we really enjoyed the food, the ribs were a bit different, but apart from that we enjoyed the food just as much as we did before. We booked for 6.15 and we were out by 7.45-8, and that was us asking for a minute between starters, duck & main
We’ll definitely be going back!
Have been using this restaurant for years. Ordered a take away last night and it was horible. Food was dry and tasteless. I rang and spoke to the manager, he said. We are the new owners, thank you for your comments. That was it. Awful attitude. My advise, stay away!! .
I wish I could give 0 stars
Absolute disgusting.
Been driving from sidcup to get Chinese from here for over a year as it was thee best about
However staff have all changed and it’s complete rubbish
Chicken balls taste like fried it dirty oil, staff have no clue about the menu
Get told a hours wait then when you arrive you wait a additional 30-60 minutes
I gave them the benefit of the doubt but last 3 visits have been worst each time
Avoid this place it’s rough now unfortunately as was a great place for Chinese
We have been regular customers at Choi Pin for the last 3 years, coming from another Chinese restaurant because we felt disappointed with that one too.
On the last few visits, we felt extremely uncomfortable with the atmosphere and just how different it was in there. So we asked if the original owners, Thomas and Laura were on holiday, we got told that they had Semi-retired and may or may not be back, we were devastated! But could definitely tell something was up. The food has tasted different the last few times - no flavour, random huge chunks of vegetables to bulk it out, and scoulding hot oily satay sauce (the oil had stained the bowl and our fingers) - which we weren’t made aware of how hot it was. My friend burnt her tongue and has woken up with blisters on it from where she dipped the food in!
The staff were arguing in the kitchen which we could hear from the restaurant and then they brought the disputes out to the restaurant for the 3 tables to hear.
The service is shockingly slow and more often than not we have to ask for things rather than be offered them first, even though the front of house team had been standing around talking for the past 15 minutes or so, or on their phones!!
We went yesterday and ordered a mixed starter for two, and 2 other sides.. we then ordered mains, but couldn’t eat them all. We were then told by the waitress that “we did order quite a lot of starters” in an abrupt voice. Even though it was only us that would’ve been out of pocket really as we couldn’t eat it because it wasn’t very appetising. But we paid for it all anyway!!
The portion sizes were always so good for the price and it was lovely food, but recently (since changing management) they have been noticeably smaller and instead of the nice salt and chilli seasoning, they now use dried onions, which looked like they had come from a packet and some fancy cut carrots.
Before we left the manager popped out to the shops, 2 of his staff were then having a full on shouting match in the restaurant, mentioning his name and seen to be getting cross. When the manager came back, it felt very frosty and one of the members of staff got his bag of food and stormed out.
Being that there was only 2 of us and one other couple, we couldn’t not hear it!
Unfortunately you have lost a good batch of customers as we had been recommending this restaurant to our families too, we will now be asking if anyone knows of any different ones, which is a huge shame!! Even with the takeaway orders, we have previously ordered over £50 worth of food and thrown it away because of the standard of food.
I used to travel down from Hastings, me and my friend used to come here for dinner and have a catch up! This makes it even more of a shame!!!
Been eating here for a few years it was a good Chinese but has recently changed hands and the food is nowhere near as good,
They definitely need a new chef
My friend recommended this place to me and I’m not sure why because it’s awful.
wasn’t hot, no flavour and a waste of money because me, my wife and daughter hardly ate any of it.
Will definitely be finding another Chinese in the future. ????
It seems a husband and wife team run this place.
One of the best local Chinese, i always use them.
The service is fast and efficient.
The food is excellent and reasonably priced.
You won't be disappointed.
They remember and greet you with your name just adding that extra personal touch.
Happy and prosperous new year to you all
Changed hands recently will not return
All the best alan
