We missed “home cooked food”and was hunting for one close to home and we found Tang’s after few attempts. When they served me and I looked at the texture of the rice and I know this is the right one!
1. Their ginger chicken with rice and vegetable soup for lunch are super good and almost 100% close to our home cooked food.
Highly recommended!
Excellent service and tasty food. We opted for the buffet (£26.95 each, minimum of 2 people). We went for 7 starters, and then 5 mains; this was a good amount, although I assume they adjust portions depending on how many you pick, but you can order more after if you've still got some room! The duck starter in particular was very good and a generous portion too (see photo). Everything was fresh and had great flavour. Sometimes when having Chinese food you can come away spending the rest of the evening needing lots of water (because of the high salt and/or msg) but this wasn't one of those times, so a big plus there as far as I'm concerned. If you opt for the buffet, order tap water (or anything else without bubbles!) to drink so you can make the most of trying out lots of the different food options. There's plenty of bars nearby to go after for a drink once some of that food has gone down!
Had the buffet option in the evening. It’s great because you can try a lot of different things. Also a whole veggie menu. We had 7 starters and 4 mains between the 2 of us. Good size potions and left a good amount of full.
We had a reunion here last night and had a thoroughly enjoyable time, the food was epic, the service was just right, by that I mean no was hovering around like a pack of wolves trying to take your plate away before you had finished, the staff just let us take our time. As for the atmosphere, we became friends when we were 4/5, when we started school, we're in our 60's now, to be honest we could have been on the moon and the atmosphere would have been brilliant. But the staff were kind courteous and jolly which made the evening even more special and enjoyable. Will definitely be recommending to friends, family and returning again.
Had an absolutely wonderful dinner today! The food was scrumptious! So much flavour. The staff were incredibly friendly and couldn’t have asked for better service. Amazing meal!
Came here this afternoon for our work Christmas lunch (table of 20), was my first time and can honestly say best Chinese food I have had in a long time! So much flavour, fresh and not at all greasy or heavy like most. Staff were super friendly and welcoming, quick service and asking if we need more drinks clearing all plates and glasses consistently. 10/10 would highly recommend! £19.95 for the lunch menu. Starters top tier and mains very impressed, thank you Tangs!
Came with my sister today for lunch after our afternoon tea was cancelled. We loved it! My sister is a vegetarian and they had a vegetarian menu with lots of options. Once the food arrived everything was hot, fresh and and my sister was so impressed with the vegetarian dishes. The portions were huge, bigger than expected ansdtherefore we over ordered!
What makes this place great is the staff. The Manager/owner was so welcoming, helpful, funny and friendly and the waitress was attentive and very helpful. Tang's also is quietier where it's a litttle further up from the shops which was lovely when we wanted a nice lunch and not crowded by others nearby.
There was nothing negative about this place for me and my sister is thrilled she found a Chinese that caters so well with veggie options.
The toilets are upstairs however. This wasn't an issue for us but might be for others.
Best buffet I've had in about 10 years.
Tangs has supposedly been part of Southampton for twenty years or more by this point. They have a buffet style menu, lazy Susan tables and they were fairly busy on a Saturday evening. The decor is looking a little dated but the food did not disappoint. I had the prawn chow mein and salt and pepper squid which were both delicious and fresh.
The food was absolutely incredible (ate most of my boyfriend's then had to order my own - szechuan duck and sweet and sour chicken), and the service was so so lovely. Can't recommend highly enough. I genuinely look forward to the next time I can come back!!
Great food and service, good value too. Lovely little place
Tangs was an emphatic experience, mr tang himself was extremely pleasant and so were his staff members. Left with a very full and happy belly. I will be back.
Really nice dinner buffet! You can order unlimited starters and one main each. Really good for the price per person and the food is fab! 💖
Wow. Haven’t seen Tang and the team for over 14 years and he didn’t disappoint. Amazing food, cheap prices and top service! We went for the buffet……huge selection of dishes and very tasty! Thank you Tang….we’ll be back soon!
We tried tang’s last night for the first time, the all you can eat buffet is made to order (which I prefer) and costs only £18.95 which is great value. All you can eat starters and a long list of main courses, service was great also.
Good food, good location, nice place and friendly staff. Not overly busy. Cleanliness is good. Thumbs up here.
Fantastic restaurant! Owner is so friendly and staff always make you feel like the most important table in the room! Food is excellent and very reasonably priced for the buffet menu!
Beautiful food, reasonably priced as well. My husband and I loved our 1st anniversary dinner here ❤️
Been going here for years and it has a really good atmosphere. Service is brilliant and I recommend it for a good family run restaurant
