Mayflower Chinese - Bristol, City of

We couldn't find our reservation, so we were seated upstairs in a less desirable area. The air conditioning was on, making it drafty. However, the shared starter was delicious. Unfortunately, one of our meals was incorrect and took a long time to be corrected. By the time the dish was fixed, the rest of our party had almost finished their meals and the rice was cold. The dish itself was also not very warm. Despite being told it was safe to eat, it is common knowledge that dishes should be properly reheated. When we asked the waitress to remove the service charge, she seemed indignant. Luckily, the management intervened and removed the service charge as well as the price of the incorrect dish. This experience overshadowed what was supposed to be a nice birthday surprise. The name Lee may be meaningful in China, but not at the Mayflower. Overall, it was a terrible experience.

We called on for a takeaway. The food was very tasty. The staff were friendly and the service quick. We had the Chicken Curry and I can highly recommend rhe Satay Chicken. Chips were lovely and crispy. The restaurant seemed busy when we arrived and the food looked delicious. I would go here again when I return to Bristol.

On April 12th, we visited this restaurant before attending a show in Bristol. It was an amazing discovery - the crispy chilli beef was the best I've ever had, and the service from the staff was excellent. All of the dishes, including the Duck and Singapore noodles, were delicious. Despite its unassuming exterior, this hidden gem impressed us with its rotating tables. We will definitely be returning!

As always excellent service and the best Chinese food in Bristol. Worth every penny. I do not understand some of the bad reviews this is my forth time here and the staff are so friendly and can’t do enough for you. Highly recommend.

Take away. Food was cold. All of it very oily and crispiness had gone. Very disappointing. Avoid.
