Bawon is a great wee Chinese takeaway located in Ballyholme Village, it's only about 5 minutes from…read moremy brothers house so when I visit it's our Chinese takeaway of choice. Delivery is always very quick but not too quick, sometimes you get a bit suspicious of Chinese restaurants who deliver too quickly but this one takes just about the right amount of time to be prompt but not make you worry that your food has been pre cooked. Freshness is definitely a trait of this Chinese. My dish of choice is always shredded honey chili chicken and Bawon make it to perfection - funny thing is that I walked past the other day and I could smell it cooking in the kitchen and had a massive craving for it. I just about suppressed my desire for it but writing this is bringing all those feelings up again! Delivery drivers are always really courteous and importantly they seem to know their way around Bangor and in particular the Ballyholme area. You don't have to order your food over the phone, you can also walk in but expect a short wait. Overall I am a fan of Bawon - as others have mentioned Bangor is a competitive Chinese Takeaway market and Bawon definitely holds it's own.

I was excited for Bawon when I heard it was opening just 2 minutes from my house. I was even more…read moreexcited when I heard it was one of the best tasting Chinese food take-aways in Bangor. The problem is, they had that title for a year or so, then I'm not sure what happened, but it sort of slipped a bit. It still is a great Chinese, maybe not just the best in Bangor anymore. Also, if you want prawn crackers with your order, you have to ask for them as they don't put them in automatically. But hey.

Service good but they over priced the food and it was just to grease and the drinks are over priced…read moreaswell

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.

Through the power of Yelp we came across Elements, on the Antrim Road and not sure where to get a…read moredecent Chinese takeaway we turned to trusty Yelp. Elements came out on the nearby search and the rating results so it was a no brainer. After ordering over the phone we headed straight over and guess what? It was ready for us. I was impressed with the clean interior of the takeaway and I liked the way you could see in to the kitchen. Also there was a comical sign on the window saying, 'Don't stand on the sofa or knock the window' - not sure what's gone on in the past but it was pretty quiet this evening. We ordered a salted chilli chicken dish with 2 sides and it was absolute perfection. Filling and flavoursome. The price wasn't too bad either. £9.20 for all this! I was impressed.

The food is fantastic and very reasonably prices. The honey chilli chicken could be the only meal I'd ever get to eat for the rest of my life and I think I'd be pretty ok with that. There's a huge selection of offers in terms of meals for 2/3 etc which really do give your superb value for money and if theres something on the set list you'd like to change, they are always happy to do so. I love this place a little to much.

They have an extensive menu with lots of choices, including a healthy options section. So last night (before a vegan talk) I ordered stir fried pak choi with oyster sauce (Yes I know that's not vegan) and some soft noodles. Wow was it good, perfectly cooked and seasoned and more than enough to fill me up. I tried some of the salt chilli tofu as well which was pretty amazing too. The service is great and its a popular spot which I always think speaks volumes. (It was busy on a Tuesday night before payday!) My only downside is the décor which is bright and clean but a little dated. With a few very small touches I'd up this to a 5 star in no time. Oh and did I mention, its Bring your own! Definitely go try it if you haven't.
