We love it here! It never changes, you always know exactly what to expect and people keep coming back.
The guy who runs it is very friendly and takes the time for a chat.
Would thoroughly recommend- great food and service.
Only been twice for takeaway (they don't do delivery) but both times absolutely loved it, the food is amazing across the board! I also noticed the front of house using sign language to communicate with a man who came to collect takeaway, which is not a common thing in hospitality so it was really nice to see they do more for all spectrum of customers.
Love this place! I've been coming here for 20 years or so, it's consistently really good food and prices. Service can be a bit slow when it's busy but it's well worth the wait! Plus you can BYO booze (without a corkage fee). Takeaway is available.
We have lived nearby for 20 years, so, I am sorry not to have discovered Mayfair much sooner. Having had poor food and service from any number of locals in that time - including ones that should do much better - Chinese food has been off our go-to list for a long time now. Hats off then to Mayfair for a great spread of good value food. Ours was take away but, seeing the food to table, we will be happy to visit. Reception was good, food on time and gratuity refused as not necessary. I will enjoy the left-overs wokked up for lunch tomorrow.
**cash only** ensure you take cash to help Michael. One band front of house so be patient with him. Nice food. Good portions. Taking your own alcohol saves many of us a lot of restaurant cost so we can eat more or take some home.
Took the family to this Chinese restaurant that my wife had been to on numerous occasions and highly recommended it. I would totally agree.....food was great, portion sizes were ample and all at an affordable price.
Been visiting Mayfair for about 20 years and still haven't found anywhere comparable in Nottingham when it comes to the quality of the food.
Mike is a great host who is attentive to the guests needs and very friendly.
Prices very reasonable and drinks can be bought from the shop next door so no £4 charges for a soft drink.
Restaurant is always tidy.
This is a no-nonsense, bring your own booze place with fabulous food, reasonable prices and lovely staff. Make sure you book, though - it's always busy for a reason!
What an absolute find, we decided to try this small restaurant after many people told us how good the food was.
We went on a Wednesday night, the place was warm and most tables full.The guy that runs it Mike what a lovely man, helpful friendly and proud of his restaurant and so he should be.... The food is probably the best Chinese iv tasted fresh full of flavour exceptional.
We ordered lots of everything to try and I will say we will be back in a hurry
Michaela and Jaz
What a lovely hidden gem. Bring your own alcohol and cash only. Excellent service , but more staff needed for a Friday night. Food was delicious and very filling
Will visit again
I love my mayfair if I have Chinese food always go here very nice.People beautifully and at the right price
Excellent food in basic but clean surroundings, brilliant value. Please note, not licensed premises so you can take your own booze, there's a shop right next door. Also, cash only at this restaurant! There's a cash machine nearby but I'm not sure if it charges or not, so best to withdraw some cash in town before heading up Mansfield Road if that's where you're coming from.
Been coming here for years, the owner greeted us by name and told food would be a little wait as he had a couple of unbooked small parties just come in. I'm fine when I know, ironically one of the groups was friends of ours who have also been coming here many years. Excellent food, atmosphere and a very fair price
Been going since i was little girl still go now wouldn't go anywhere else cheap and taste amazing
It is a little while since I visited here but it has been my favourite restaurant in Nottingham for many years and is excellent in every respect.
I do want to mention the list of services shown on Google Maps. There are two features that can not be properly edited.
1. The restaurant occupies two floors, ground and first.
2. Neither beer nor wine or any other alcoholic beverage is offered here, but you can bring your own bottle, beer, or wine, and the restaurant provides glasses free of charge, i.e., no corkage charge.
I had expected more from the food, I was hoping for better quality and taste.
We have been coming here for well over a decade because we love the food and Michael the owner is a legend. The food is great quality takeaway standard with prices to match. It's BYOB which makes it good value if you're after a lower price meal out.
Great for a quiet meal for two and likewise a perfect choice for larger groups.
