What User doesn't like about Oriental Express:

Despite some positive reviews about the food, many customers were left disappointed by the poor service and wait times at this Chinese restaurant in Salford. Complaints ranged from late deliveries to missing items and hair in the food. Some noticed a decline in food quality, with dishes tasting lacklustre and missing key ingredients. While some customers enjoyed their meals and praised the taste of the food, overall, the consensus was that the restaurant failed to meet expectations due to subpar service, long wait times, and inconsistency in food preparation. Many vowed to look for alternatives in the future.
