Eastern Meadow - Newcastle upon Tyne

This Chinese restaurant uses fresh ingredients and their house special fried rice is exceptional. Great job, keep it up!

We used to frequent this Chinese restaurant for many years, but not anymore. The food was not as hot as it used to be, and there was a strange sour smell coming from the ribs. I called to express my dissatisfaction and was told it took me 40 minutes to complain and return the meal. With the heavy traffic making it difficult to return, I can only say that they have lost a loyal customer.

I have been a customer of this Chinese restaurant for many years, but my last visit was very disappointing. Both dishes were drenched in oil and the extra portions of onions were filled with carrots. The curry was overly salty as well. We wasted more than 30 pounds, which was a real letdown.

As a professed lover of chinese food, I had to give Eastern Meadow a go as a student desperate for my takeaway fix. Unfortunately, it just didnt live up to expectations. Pros: Delivered to my door Reasonably Fast (within 40 mins of ordering on friday night) Slightly (only just) cheaper than alternatives Cons: Hard Salt Pepper Chicken Food wasn't warm (had definitely been sat for a while) Just didnt have that MSG deliciousness that i was after My loyalty unforunately lies with Acorn Rd Chinese forever now.

I’d heard great things from people at work that this was the best chinese takeaway in Newcastle so I went out of my way and did 30 mile round journey to give it a try. Not sure if I just picked the wrong dishes or caught them on a bad night but the salt and pepper chicken was dry and bland, my girlfriend got the crispy chilli beef in Cantonese sauce which was a bit better but nothing really special. Honestly I can’t see what all the fuss is about
