Xing Ying - Calderdale

I have been a loyal customer of Xin Ying (not Xing Ying) for years now and I can confidently say that I have never been disappointed with their takeout food. The staff is always friendly, the food is consistently hot, and the portions are generous and delicious. While I usually opt to pick up my order rather than have it delivered, I can attest to the fact that on one occasion when I did have it delivered, it arrived on time. Additionally, Xin Ying cooks the best salt and pepper king prawns I have ever had from a Chinese takeaway. The prawns are large, perfectly cooked in a light batter, and served with sautéed onions, green peppers, and fresh chillies. Absolutely fantastic.

I have ordered from this restaurant multiple times and have typically picked up the food, which has always been delicious with generous portions. However, tonight we decided to order delivery through Just Eat. Although the predicted delivery time was 6.15, the restaurant changed it to 6.25 and the food did not arrive until 6.50. The chow mein, which usually has plenty of meat, was mostly noodles with very little meat. The sweet and sour chicken in batter came in small pieces in a plastic tub with the sauce already added, resulting in a soggy and chewy mess rather than the usual crispy batter. It seems that the restaurant may be treating Just Eat delivery customers differently or has experienced a decline in quality.

I tried this restaurant for the first time on a Saturday night and I have no regrets. The portion sizes were generous, everything tasted amazing. The ribs had lots of meat on them and the curry was thick and delicious. I will definitely be coming back.

We tried this takeaway a couple of weeks ago, fast delivery service, good value and the best Chinese food we have eaten. Everything tasted delicious. This is going to be our go-to takeaway from now on. Excellent!!

We thought we would try this Chinese due to ok reviews on just eat a we usually go to Jade Garden. All I would say is to all of the people rating this place 3/4/5 you need to go to Jade Garden and your opinion would be drastically changed. The food arrived cold, missing one of the main dishes. When calling the takeaway, they didn’t have a clue what was going on; Eventually when the missing main arrived the meal was bland/cold/dry/missing main ingredients i.e. the beef in black bean had 80% noodles and 20% beef.... who puts noodles in black beans? The duck was nice but that’s about it. I would highly recommend the people disappointed or even thinking this is a good Chinese to try Jade Garden at Haley Hill, Halifax as Xing Ying was disappointing in comparison. Do not believe the good reviews.
