Tang's - Southend-on-Sea

Came here on a saturday evening to try tangs buffet.The inside is actually really nice,reminds me of a all inclusive restaurant you get on holidays abroad.I thought the dishes i had was ok but not sure about the chicken dishes.The chicken curry was nice but the lemon chicken was stringy and my wifes dish she said her chicken was very dry. The service was ok but they take your plates and glasses away before you have even finished with them.One girl took my mother in laws apple juice away even tho it was a 3rd full and spilt it all on the floor.Desserts was nice tho

On way back from London thought we would pop in and give it a go. Money taken off you as you go in before you’ve even seen what’s on offer, loud open plan restaurant. Lots of posh looking serving trays full of food. Burnt dry food, tough chewy chicken. Watery souplike satay sauce. Chicken wings burnt to a crisp dry no meat awful. Duck and pork dish was not refreshed for the whole time we stayed dry and looking in edible. Noodles were okay. One or two beef or chicken in sauce dishes were okay. Majority of food had been hanging around too long and wasn’t enticing. Drinks expensive. To cap it all we both had rather unstable tummy’s the next morning. In summary give it a miss unless you’re desperate. We won’t be going back

Staff friendly quick to clear tables. For topped up regular, 80% of food was edible but for £14.99 each then £7. For drinks we found it slightly pricey. Tables a bit small our coats were dragging on the floor so not amused.

Arrived for lunch at 12:30pm was taken to out table, when we went to get food there was only 1 spring roll 3 spare ribs very little pork for pancakes, we took a little to start and decided to make a second trip hoping more food would be out, after eating the little we had there was no extra food out so decided to go to main section but yet again not a lot of food out half empty pots with cold and dried up meat, deserts were limited and cake dry, and let’s just say both very ill that night and next day and this was the only meal eaten that day. I’ll never go there again

We all enjoyed the good selection of food and came away full but with headaches. It was so noisy being Saturday... a day I would avoid again. All food clearly marked so you know what your eating. There was sushi dimsum and fresh fruit along with all the favourites. Pork was tough shame as flavour lovely. I would go again but not at the weekends.
