Pagoda Cantonese Restaurant

We dined in on a Saturday night. The place was full but the service was eager and spot on. Drinks came quickly and then the food was brought out without too much wait between courses. We had duck stuffed with prawn meat and the sweet and sour king prawns. The food was fresh and tasty and the sharing starter in particular was lovely. Not a word of complaint, even the folks on the next table enjoyed their food too although the lady was asked about 6 times if she wanted to order a drink 😂. We don’t know their names but they made our night extra special too.

After finishing work at 8pm myself and a couple of friends decided to go out for some food due to it been one of our birthdays we got here and sat down for 20:30-20:45 latest from when we sat down we were nothing but rushed for drinks rushed for starters then got told we had 45 minutes to finish absolutely everything as they were closing. This wouldn't be an issue but every member of staff had a terrible attitude the drinks were flat the mains arrived half way through having our starter and the food was no better than any I've had from a Chinese takeaway on a Saturday night which also may I add i don't think I'd of been charged £89 for. After finishing and complaining to staff they were nothing but rude and couldn't get us out of the place quick enough and we're even cheeky enough to try get us to contact less pay on our card twice even though we had told them the payment had gone through and proved this on a mobile banking app. Put it this way I'd rather sign my self up to eating my own foot than step back in this place ever again shocking service shocking food and way overpriced.

Well my wife and I went for a meal here with the inlaws, where do I start the food was raw undercooked and very bland, the staff watched eat every fork full which I /we found very uncomfortable, the best bit is they TRIED to sneak a 10% service charge on our bill which we didn’t pay as the food is expensive enough. If you want a good Chinese meal give this place a wide birth

Didn't feel welcome from the whole experience. The male middle age waiter was very abrupt told us what to order and wasn't friendly, they actually lost out on more of a order as he walked off. The food was standard what I expect from any Chinese takeaway but I did think the salt n pepper ribs were very good. Solid 3 stars poor service average food. Won't go back in a rush. 2+ the real rating but not a option good rep but pretty poor.
