Honeymoon Chinese Take Away in Highcliffe, Christchurch
Honeymoon Chinese Take Away
I have eaten many takeaways but never as bad as this. Crispy Aromatic Duck has been verified as chicken. The crispy seaweed is just inedible along with the spare ribs (always thought meat was supposed to fall off bones) not from Honeymoon it doesn't. The special chow mein is so spicy hot yet again another inedible dish. Chow mein is not supposed to be spicy, perhaps someone should let them know. When I complained (politely I would add) all I got was a neurotic screaming man yelling at me. If you dare hope you get a better meal than I have. I do not recommend Honeymoon Chinese Take Away.
Absolutely awful service, they delivered our order with 2 dishes wrong and charged us the same, so I phoned to complain as my daughter was left with nothing she would eat and they said we could not have a refund but we could have our next meal half price, so I thought that was fair but when we rang to order the next time they point blank refused! Really out of order, would never use them again.
I cannot understand the poor reviews this takeaway has received. We don't live in the area but we do visit several times every year and if we feel like a Chinese takeaway this is our place of choice. The food is always brilliant ( no flavour enhancers, minimal salt etc ) and it is always ready on time; you can tell it has been freshly cooked too. We have eaten their food lots of times and will continue to do so. It's as good as anywhere in our view.
Have always used when we lived in Highcliffe as lived around the corner. We now live in center of Xchurch so thought we would have a take out from them for old times sake....the bill came to over £10 more than our local (China Kitchen), when questioned she said we should check the menu before ordering!
To summarise nice enough food, poor service and over priced....China kitchen is much better with realistically priced food, last time we will be taking a trip down memory lane to Homeymoon.
