Went to their Chinese New Year evening last year and had a sumptuous banquet of the most superb…read morechinese cuisine my wife and I have ever tasted. The already festive atmosphere was heightened by the arrival of the Dragon Dancers, who put on a most entertaining and fun display. The staff are always most attentive without being "in your face" and I can only recommend visiting this restaurant to see for yourself. Oh and to top it all off, a great wine list! We have been back many times since, and ordered a few takeaways as well.

The food is fantastic and the wine list is very good too. It's not a cheap Chinese restaurant but definitely worth the money. Go easy on the wine and it's quite reasonable. But if you want to push the boat out and maybe take some firends or family for a stylish Chinese meal then this is the place to go.

We hadn't had a take-away for months due to the pandemic and closure of restaurants and take-away…read moreoutlets. At last, some were delivering except out favourite Chinese outlet. We found another one, online, and decided to give it a try. We ordered our usual dishes and wondered if The China Village would come up to our usual expectations. Delivery was good as it arrived within 5 minutes of our requested time. The delivery driver followed guidelines by leaving the bag on the doorstep, rang the bell and stepped back. Re-assuring for us in the vulnerable category. OK, down to the food. As I said we ordered the same as usual so a comparison with our usual 4 star service would be reasonable. Chicken satay, very watery sauce with very little peanut flavour but chicken tasty. Rice and noodles don't vary from place to place. Chicken balls were a real PLUS. Not balls but strips in a very light batter. Delicious. Sweet and sour sauce, once again, the same anywhere. Chicken chop suey, great with wonderful well cooked, white chicken pieces. Deep fried chilli beef, once again delicious. Szechuan chilli beef, a little disappointing. Sauce very liquid and certainly not very chilli. However, the whole meal was enjoyable. Food price was similar to our other outlet but this was increased by the delivery charge. Even though the restaurant is closer they charge whereas our other outlet does not charge for deliveries within 3 miles and over £15 order. So a slight down on that one. Free prawn crackers, a plus. Also, two fortune cookies, a nice touch. Taking everything into account I would say The China Village is about half a star lower than our usual restaurant but......I'll stick with 4 stars.

So, for anyone who hasn't eaten here and things they've had Chinese cuisine I would say very simply, you haven't eaten Chinese until you've eaten here.
