We have lived in Lincolnshire for about 14 years now and my wife and I both agree this was the best chinese meal we have had. Chinese food is our favourite so we have tried many takeaway and restaurants over the years but the food stands out as the best for us here. We will be back and hope it is just as good next time.

Not been to the Phoenix for many years but eight of us shared a birthday celebration there and could not have had a better meal with high quality food, friendly and helpful staff and the atmosphere of lovely traditional restaurant.. so much better than visiting pubs as we more regularly do. Highly recommended with meal prices in the 25 pound price range which we thought was good value for the experience. Ideal for a special occasion.

My first time at the phoenix for years and the food was very good would certainly go back and it felt nice to eat inside a restaurant rather than a takeaway at home . Staff very friendly and service good .

Review February 2020 -5 STAR We have used this restaurant on and off since the last review and can happily report that the food standard has been top quality. Recently, we have have 3 take aways in just 6 weeks and each time it has been great. On collection, or food was hot. Portion size filled the containers and the quality of the meat and vegetables was very good. They do get very busy at times and I would suggest that those times are when standard slip. Since 2018, we have managed to receive good tasty food. We think this place is absolutely the best Chinese restaurant in Lincoln. ------------------------------------- Review August 2018 - 4 STAR - So we tried this place again after a long period away and the quality of the food has returned to their, mostly, good standard. Our takeaway was hot and tasty although we ordered a plain noodle for our 9 year old and it tasted a bit too salty. That will be because of too much soy. The noodles looked quite dark too and helps to confirm that suspicion. We will return in a few months and update the review as they have in the past been a very good restaurant. Not sure they would win awards just yet but headed in the right direction. --------------------------------------- Original Review 2017 - 1 STAR - Food has gone down hill big time! Egg fried rice tastes like boiled rice with a bit of yellow in it. Noodles not fried instead, only shown the pan. Price has crept up and flavour gone down. Highly disappointed. The positives: Full range of food on the menu and willing to adjust a dish to taste e.g broad noodles or different types of vegetables. Sometimes very busy, booking advised. Telephone orders in advance for takeaway. Clean restaurant and very friendly staff. Overall: Was the best Chinese 2 years ago. Now the worst Chinese restaurant in Lincoln.

The food was excellent but getting the correct bill was a nightmare. After waiting 15 minutes for the bill to arrive we had to go to the bar to find we had been charged for a round of drinks that were not ours. It took ages to get it sorted out. The manager had bits of paper all over the bar top and didn't seem to have a clue who had had what. Spoilt what was a very good evening.

Not had much luck with takeaway recently so decided on this place and definitely glad I did now. The staff were very friendly and was received 20 mins earlier than the expected delivery time. You can tell they really care about the food they send out as everything was cooked beautifully. Thank you!
