While Yummy Chinese Takeaway holds a strong reputation, a few customers have noted areas for improvement. Some have mentioned the food can be occasionally watery, particularly in certain dishes, which may detract from the overall experience. A handful of diners feel that the flavor can be inconsistent, suggesting that improvements could be made to enhance the seasoning of specific plates. Additionally, a few patrons have had mix-ups with their orders, but the attentive staff usually resolve such issues promptly.

The owners need to change the name from "Yummy" to "Delicious" - best Chinese takeaway I've EVER had! I usually order the chicken chow mein, egg fried rice and chicken balls and everything is perfect. Not greasy at all and the chow mein noodles are... More finely done [best description I can say] which I feel is SO much better! Absolutely the best

Our go-to Chinese takeaway. Food is always fresh and tasty. The service is always friendly and on schedule. Prices are also very good for the quality, especially compared to other similar restaurants in and around Newark-Balderton. Love the menu variety and veggie options, especially the mock duck. But can't beat the old, faithful, egg fried rice and chicken chow mein. Highly recommend.

I was pleasantly surprised not only at the vegetarian options that are available as a vegetarian usually takeouts the options are really limited but here there was loads of option 🤩. Also the quality of the food was outstanding, we all really enjoyed our meals, I had a mock chicken satay which tasted amazing 😋. The service was lovely greeted with a smile and really helpful, when I was unsure what Cantonese chicken was like the young lady was very helpful. Overall very satisfied will come again! Ty!

The best Chinese in Newark. The food is always hot, it is never ever greasy. They always deliver at the time they say they are going to. Yes, sometimes you have wait an hour or two hours, but waiting for good food is very worth it! The staff are always friendly and polite. Wouldn't go anywhere else.
