We've been regularly using this take away for many years, since not long after they opened. After…read morethe fiasco tonight, we'll never do business with these vile liars again. Here is the timeline of events: 20:55 - confirmation email from Just Eat received 21:06 - wife called restaurant to change order from delivery to collection due to restaurant extending the delivery time without warning - was told it had already left for delivery 21:26 - called to chase - told to wait another 10 mins 21:36 - called again to chase. We were asked if we wanted the food or not. I asked if they'd cooked it yet, and where was the food - they didn't give a straight answer. They eventually just hung up. 21:46 - called AGAIN, demanded a refund. They finally admitted it hadn't even been cooked yet - proof that they'd been lying to us for nearly an hour. Refused to give a refund, told us to call Just Eat if we wanted our money back. Hung up on us a second time. Why lie to us and say it's out for delivery when it wasn't even cooked and I was happy to collect? Why keep lying saying "another 10 mins" when it wasn't cooked? No manners, no apology - just aggressive rude people who seemingly don't need our cash. We'll NEVER use this place again. They are nothing short of being vile, despicable liars.

If you live in the local area of St Mary Cray, this Take Away is located in a small parade of shops…read moreright near the Mainline station (St Mary Cray) and is accessible from plenty of local bus stops directly outside if you live within a mile or 2, I have had them deliver from the order taken over the phone and average wait time is between 30 - 45min depending how busy they are, they do have a couple of tables inside the shop if you wish to eat in too. Now onto the good bit, I usually order the same items Sesame Prawn Toast, Large Spring Rolls, Roast Duck (in sweet plum sauce) with Roast Pork Chow Mein and Egg Fried Rice), this Chinese Cuisine Take Away does have plenty more to offer to order from (see photos of current leaflet for full list and prices as of June 2015), delivery of food turns up in the usual plastic microwavable containers and is always hot and fresh! a real taste of Chinese and I would recommend this Take Away to anyone that lives in the local area.

This is absoulutely favourite restaurant at the moment…read more It is a tiny little restuarant that is very easy to miss, as the roadside signage is both understated and unlit. It holds seating for around 25 people, is wheelchair accessible, and does easilly the best Chinese food I've had in ages. For me, the highlights of the menu are: Chicken Peking style - which is a chopped battered chicken breast fillet in the lightest, crispiest batter you can imagine, drizzled with a fresh garlic, spring onion and soy dressing... Sounds a bit doughy? Not at all.. it somehow keeps fresh and crispy througout the meal. The Chinese dumplings are fabulous (always a benchmark for me - as they're so easy to get wrong) - but the smart money for me goes to have the Wonton soup instead, as the starter has 4 dumplings, whereas the soup has 3 of the same.. and the soup, and is cheaper. Instead, either the chicken sate, or the Chefs special kebabs (with a delightfully spicy chilli sauce) are absolute winners. (and very large portions too) Any noodle dish is amazing, as is all the seafood.. I've now had prawn, squid and scallops, and all are of absolute freshness, and are cooked to perfection. On the first time I went to this restaurant, which to be honest is quite sparcely decorated and lit.. I was greeted by only one other table being used. The occupants said that they'd seen my party pass by, and then come back, and 'we'd chosen a good-un' here. They then proceeded to offer us tastes of their dishes before we ordered to prove,.. (one of which was the Peking chicken) I'm a very fussy eater, and wouldn't normally dream of accepting, but I did on this occasion, as they genuinely seemed proud of the restaurant,.. The tastes guaranteed that we'd have that on our first order, and the rest is history. Such enthusiasm from clientelle just speaks volumes IMHO. Wonderful service, great food. I seriously have nothing but praise for this place. I've taken 6 of my friends here on several occasions, and everyone agreed on the quality of everything.. One friend (who, incidentally I've just been back there with) literally could not wait to go back there this evening... The restaurant proudly displays paper clippings on the walls in the dining area and the outer widows proclaiming that they recently won the accolade of the best Chinese food in Bromley. (no mean feat as Xian was also in their catagory!) - While Xian is unboutably good, it also has the dresscode and prices to match.. For me, the unassuming location and friendliness of the staff, yet equally delicious food of Lotus will win out any day. Please go and try it, the chef deserves as much business as he can handle..

Small and upscale Chinese restaurant in the Orpington high street. I picked this one mostly…read morebecause it seemed like a fun idea to eat at a restaurant beginning with an X. But it was worthwhile. The service was attentive, the restaurant very clean including the loo, and the food was of generous quantity, though not quite what I was expecting. What they called Mongolian lamb was a large hunk of rather dry lamb meat.

Went here last week, and had a totally different experience to last time. Out of the mixed…read morestarters, only the prawn toast and ribs were any good. The smoked shredded chicken is sweet instead of spicy (not what I'm used too) and the satay sauce tasted like curry (it was very smooth with no crunch - again, not what I'm used too). We shared main courses and again I could hardly eat it. There was no flavour to anything and the rice was so overcooked. The service is a bit hit or miss, and I didn't find anyone but the owner friendly. And the tables are so close together, forget having a private conversation. To be honest it baffles me that so many people eat here. Although my friend loves it, so it may just be my taste buds! The highlight of my evening? The apple fritters. Perfect and very deserving of two stars!

Good Chinese. There's nothing better. The Peking Diner in Grove Park came recommended and it did…read morenot disappoint! All the food was really good. It was exceptionally well priced and as I ordered for takeaway, it was ready in a timely manner. The restaurant itself is quite big and considering I went on St. Patricks Day, it was surprisingly busy, which I took as a good sign. Overall, very impressed and will definitely be coming back. Only down side is they don't deliver, but worth the drive!

I used to go to this place when I was very young - it's been around and good for a long time! We…read morealways went for the all you can eat buffet and it's still what they do best in my opinion. The menu is sorted into sections - starters, peking duck, main dishes - but you can order as much of each as you want and we often jump between main courses and more duck and then back to starters again! It's always busy - usually big parties - so don't go there for an intimate dinner - it's noisy! Great value, good chinese and good fun. The decor is very '80s too - always fun!

I think the fact that the restaurant was very busy even on Friday 2nd Jan, just after the Christmas rush when everyone has spent their money, says a lot about the standard of the food and service here. We took our time over the food and even though we were the last couple in the restaurant at midnight, we did not feel rushed out of the place, and were even offered a drink on the house. Very impressed both with the food and the service, highly recommended!
