    After the sad demise of my old curry house on High Street in Bangor several years ago, it's too…read morehard to even type the name, I set about looking for a new Chinese to fulfill the duty of being my ritual Sunday evening hangover remedy and having tried easily 7 different ones, I decided The Phoenix was it. The food in the Phoenix is about as good as you are going to get in Bangor and pretty competitive in their pricing with a chicken curry with fried rice/ soft noodlesd (free prawn crackers) being delivered for £6.10, and their delivery drivers are nice guys and I have never had to phone up and ask where a delivery is...! Pretty extraordinary if you ask me. Their curry is the only reason I go here if I am being honest and it is best thing on their menu...! Although I have it on very good authority the chow mein and black bean sauce and kung-po chicken are also worthy competitors. Their portions are also huge and their rice and noddles don't come in the usual silver tin packages that most Chinese restaurants use but the same bigger plastic cartons that the mains come in. I usually go for a delivery but over Christmas was here with a large party and they put is in a back room that was great and gave us some privacy, and meant other diners in main restaurant didn't have to listen to us! The owner is a lovely woman always smiling and happy to help and she even delivers sometime late in the evening! Phoenix also do a buffet during the day now but also offer a deal on their normal lunch menu that's £5.95 for a starter, main and dessert being served 6 days a week. This one better not shut down now...!

    This is by far the best Chinese in County Down…read more They have crispy lamb served in lettuce leaf a starter, beaten only by moo-choo pork, garlic salted chilli cod (or monkfish) and their special curry and seafood hotpot are the best mains around Sally and Stella are great hosts and nothing is too much trouble

    China China restaurant which is located at the bottom of Crosby Street near Bangor's sea front, is…read moreBangor's first and only Oriental Buffet restaurant where you get to eat as much as you like all for a set price. The friendly and polite staff offer relaxed and welcoming dining for all the family. The Chinese buffet offers many different oriental dishes including soup, starters, main courses and desserts too. There are enough vegetarian and European options for those who aren't really into the usual chinese food. This place is nice enough but does slightly have the feel of a school canteen, but I guess you can't realistically expect more from an all you can eat chinese restaurant. You will eat your fill and you can also get some nice Tsingtao beers, which is always a bonus.

    Ah, China China. So good they named it twice. I'm not going to lie, it's not completely out of this…read moreworld, but I'm definitely slightly partial to a good old all you can eat Chinese buffet. Nasty, I know. Here's my guide to getting the most out of your China China experience: 1) Do not fill your plate the first time you go up. This is for two reasons - firstly because you may not finish it and b) if you eat a little bit, then you feel you've got your money's worth if you go up the second time. Believe you me, it's all psychological. 2) Choose a good time of day. 10pm at night is *not*, under any circumstances, a good time to call in. A late lunch / early dinner is often a good call, and since the price depends upon the time you leave the restaurant, you may be able to save yourself at least a couple of pounds. From 12-5pm, the 'lunch' price is only £5.99, whereas if you leave between 7 and 11pm, you're going to be paying £9.99, except on Friday and Saturday when it's £10.99. Between 5:01pm and 7pm (I have no idea what happens if you try to pay at 5pm on the dot, so I wouldn't try that one if I were you), is known as the Happy Hour, despite the fact it's actually two hours, and you'll be paying £7.99. 3) Beware, you pay extra for your drink! The above prices are food only. Tap water is always a good call. 4) Do try new things, although it goes without saying that it's really only a good idea to take a little bit at a time. Honestly, don't pile your plate full of some random dish you may hate...I've been there. 5) If you have room for dessert, go for it. If not, jelly is a wise (if that's at all applicable in the world of China China) decision. It just kinda slides down. 6) If you don't fancy stuffing yourself hopelessly, you can opt for the takeaway option of filling your box for only £3.99 (the must close though!). Think that's everything covered...try to enjoy your meal if you can.

    On a day when there's absolutely no chance of cooking there's nothing better than having an…read moreexcellent Chinese takeaway near by to sooth the blues. This evening Lill's successfully eased a particularly vicious hangover. Lilli's is located at the bottom of Grey's Hill in Bangor, a short walk from the town centre and the local hotspots and a short drive from the surrounding area. There's fantastic parking across the road if you are driving for a sit in meal or are just picking up. This evening we decided that facing the world might be a little too much to handle so we ordered our food over the phone and decided to collect. On collection I got to pop inside to see the decor and although it was authentic it looked dated. This building has been a Chinese for as long as I can remember but under a variety of different names. The food was just ok, not bad but not amazing. There were 6 of us eating and no one was blown away with their meal. I ordered salted chili chicken and my first impression was that it was on the smaller side, especially in comparison to our usual takeaway in Belfast. The overall quality of the meals wasn't fantastic. I would love to make a return visit to check what the food is like when you sit in. On the plus side the food was ready quickly and perhaps it suffered because of that! 3 Stars - A-OK!

    I have ordered from Lilli's several times now and to be perfectly honest it's been a mixed…read moreexperience. The positives are that you can order a kids meal and the portion is large enough for me to be satisfied. On the native front they often forget items, for instance last night they neglected to give us prawn crackers. We usually order online, so that process is remotely is straightforward. Although you should expect to wait around 40 minutes. In Bangor you are spoilt for choice when it comes to Asian takeaways, they vary i quality but if you're looking for decent food and a simple ordering process Lilli's is a good bet.
