August Moon - Fareham

The best chinese locally. After moving to the area I decided to try all of the local chinese takeaways. This one is by far the best!

I was staying nearby and a friend ‘treated’ us all to a take away. I ordered my usual chop suey (house special and BBQ spare ribs. Friends had their usual crispy beef and chicken balls. We shared fried rice and crackers. Sadly this was one of the WORST Chinese meals I have had in a long time. Everything was full of MSG, very little in the way of veggies in my chop suey, (although it is listed as a beansprout dish of which there were plenty… the ribs were either boiled or just very undercooked and some gloopy horrid mess of a pale, MSG laden sauce thrown on. It was literally disgusting! I should have gone with the curry option that was offered to me! I see no one has reviewed this place since 2021. Surprized it is still going!

Think the portion size is large at the expense of quality. We had the mixed starters which were indifferent. Special fried rice was horrible. Chicken chow mein tasteless and grey. Beef Szechuan was the only dish we enjoyed. Chow mein and rice went in the bin. Waste of money

Augustus Moon is by far, the best Chinese restaurant on the South Coast of England, if not the best Chinese restaurant in the U.K

Easy to park outside this take away where your order is ready in no more then 20 minutes. Phone in advance to avoid the queue and collect on entry. Good selection on menu and all piping hot. First choice for Chinese.
