Good Luck Chinese Restaurant

Reviewed By william m

Yet again a lovely inexpensive early saturday evening meal. We chose the set meal for 2 and it didnt disappoint. Lovely mixed platter starter and 3 different main meals with a good portion of special fried rice. When paying the bill we recieved the offer of a free drink from "Mine Host" Connie.a lovely gesture.We shall certainly return.

Ordered a takeaway and advised would be 30 mins. Arrived to collect and ended up waiting another 15 minutes as the Lamb Tikka starter hadn't been processed. Dished up the orders, Lamb Saag, Chicken Biryiani and the Lamb Tikka. As we'd had to wait for the starter the biryiani and saag were now lukewarm, the nan bread was limp, adn even the poppadoms were starting to wilt. The Lamb Saag was by far the best dish; the chicken chunks in the biryiani were very dry and the Lamb Tikka definitely wasn't worth the wait! This is the takeaway outlet of the Jewl in The Crown and it doesn't do its main restaurant any favours by serving up tasteless, tepid, dry food. Won't be back anytime soon.

Pearl Palace

Reviewed By Martin G

Bored with the trendy, new 'Fusion' restaurants?This is how Chinese restaurants always were and should remain.Standard menu, generous portions of traditional food, served in the traditional way. Young waiters and waitresses lacking confidence but enthusiastic anyway, a Scot Head-Waitress who knows her stuff and the Chinese owner/boss who, (as we have read earlier), doesn't like pushchairs much, but knows how to produce good food at sensible prices.Fourth visit here in as many years, (I'm not local), and the quality is the same.We had Ribs & Crab-corn soup starters, Beef Chow Mein, Special Fried Rice, A Delicious mixed veg, Green Tea and a beer for £25.30.Absolute bargain.What are you waiting for?

Hong Kong Star

Reviewed By Rachael S

When you are in Dumfries and are looking for a nice place to go for a delicious Chinese lunch then the place that I'm about to review is the place for you, and that place is Hong Kong Star located at 89 Friars Vennel. I visited Hong Kong Star for my lunch today and really enjoyed my really delicious Chinese lunch which consisted of prawn cocktail to start, followed by sweet and sour chicken canton served with fried rice and ice cream for desert washed down with diet coke which I absolutely enjoyed.Other reasons why I like Hong Kong Star are that the place is clean, the welcome is warm, the place is really warm on a winters day and the staff are friendly. Overall I really enjoyed my visit and would recommend Hong Kong Star

New Oriental

Reviewed By turpintopdog

Visited his restaurant tonight, family of 6for my sons birthday. Staff were very welcoming and moved out table at my request - wanted to move further into the restaurant as I was feeling the cold (admittedly it is freezing outside!) wasn’t a bother though. 6 starters - including 4 different soups, prawn toast and chicken spring rolls - all were piping hot and lovely flavours. Main courses - Szechuan combination, szechuan prawn, Kung-po chicken, chicken rainbow sauce and a chow main with black bean sauce all served with rice. Again all dishes were piping hot and full of flavour. Mix of soft and alcoholic drinks and bill came to £100. Lovely meal and very good value. Will definitely be back. restaurant does a buffet night every Friday and Sunday - under £12 per adult....... would definitely be worth a try.

Royal India

Reviewed By Sandra M

Food distinctly average and nothing special. However, service was appalling! Staff do not appear to have any system in place to cover busy periods and claimed not to know why it was taking so long to get meals out but, given that it took about 20mins for them to take our order in the first place, we shouldn't have been too surprised. We were constantly being told that our main course "is just coming" but then people who had come in some considerable time after us were served their main course before us! In fact, another diner came over to apologise to us for getting his before us as he knew we had been sitting for a while - he also mentioned to the waiter and was told not to worry as our meal was on its way. The meal finally arrived just 3mins before we were ready to walk out and an hour and a half after entering. We will definitely not be back!!

The India Palm

Reviewed By 998trevorg

Food here isn’t great. Smallish portions (not necessarily a bad thing - most Indian restaurants serve over large portions in our experience) and not that warm. Bland flavours. Nan was thin and crispy but good. “Tea” was a joke. A Tetley teabag and UHT milk sachets. Thought some of the food was over cooked. Service was disinterested and half hearted. Wouldn’t recommend it.
