Overview
China Chef is a Chinese takeaway on Carntyne Road in Glasgow’s east end — delivery and collection rather than a destination dining room. Google puts it in the inexpensive bracket, with a middling overall score from dozens of reviews: some locals praise portions and familiar dishes such as sweet-and-sour prawns or salt-and-chilli ribs, while others complain about order mistakes and inconsistent service. The published website address routes into Just Eat-style ordering. Directory hours generally run from late afternoon into the late evening; several listings show Wednesday closed (others disagree on the day off), so ring 0141 778 1991 before you order. Carntyne station and buses along Carntyne Road are the practical ways in — no Subway nearby.

This used to be such a good takeaway, however prices have shot up and now is absolute fortune for food. And the quality has dropped off a cliff, chips are tiny French fries and prawn toast is tiny and thin. Would avoid now, such a shame.

AVOID THIS PLACE!!!!! The customer service is the worst I’ve EVER experienced. The review only let me leave 1 star minimum, otherwise it would have been 0 stars. Ordered from here tonight with my partner as our usual Chinese was closed. When the food arrived my partner’s order was right but mine was wrong so we phoned and asked for a replacement for mine. They said we couldn’t get a replacement and told us to keep the wrong meal and get a free one another time. We then asked for a refund and they said we’d have to go to the shop to get the refund ourselves even though we had got a delivery in the first place. What a disgusting way to treat your customers. Felt sorry for the girl in the shop dealing with the phone calls as her manager refused to come on the phone and let her deal with it instead. This is the worst takeaway service I’ve ever come across.
