Just an FYI: sesame chicken does not have peanuts in it, if yours does, you should label it on your website. sending my partner into Anaphylactic shock at 8pm and rushing her to the hospital was not ideal. Will never order again, negligence at its finest.
Just ordered delivery of egg rolls , chicken balls rice and chow mien . Worst chinese we have ever had. We even asked if the egg rolls were the bean sprouts and she said yes but it was all cabbage. Sorry but it was bad !
This was not it. Ordered the: General Tso Chicken Chicken Balls Teriyaki Beef Chicken Chow Mein The only good thing was the Chicken Balls. Everything else was a let down. Service was good people were nice. But that cant make up for the taste of the food. Do not recommend
very disappointed! ordered BBQ Ribs & received BBQ Pork Fried Rice. ordered crispy chicken spring rolls: none of the 5 pieces had ANY chicken. When I called the manager, he said they are made by hand so the amount of chicken varies. When I said NONE of the 5 had ANY, he said ''that is so rare, you are very lucky, go buy a lottery ticket!''. No offer of any credit back to my credit card only that I should have brought the fried rice back. the one star is for the Vancouver Chicken Wings - they were delicious: Crispy, medium spicy & a good size! The Pad Thai looked nothing like the photo on the web site. It has reddish sauce & very little chicken & vegetables - it was just ok
I had chicken w black bean sauce chow mein delivered and a spring roll. The noodles were oily, the chicken tasteless, and the vegetables were in large chunks, not nicely presented. Overall a big disappointment. The spring roll was nice. This was my first and last order it's just too expensive to take another chance. If this had been purchased at a grocery store I would take it back for a refund. I don't have that option with this vendor.
Was here the other day, and I got to say that I was pretty excited to checkout the food here. Even tho some of the other reviews suggest otherwise. After me and my family ordering multiple items on the menu. Exited to try them all. The only thing that was tasty was the house noddles which is literally noddles with a soy sauce base. I’m really dissatisfied and disappointed that we spent close to a hundred for mostly in edible “fake and artificial food” this is not like a restaurant tho it’s a family owned location. This tastes like fast food that you would find at a gas station… hope things change and you focus on making the food not only more tasty but more presentable too. The sweet and sour chicken is sooo doughy I’ll be surprised if there’s even chicken in there. The bean and beef tastes really expired. Took a while for the food to be made too (over half and hour) - out of many many plates. I’d say that 95% of the food was thrown away form the indelibleness of the food. We were hungry so we had to eat that 5%. The Singapore noodles are dry, pretty low quality place. Things need to change
Best Chinese restaurant in Oakville. VERY highly recommend their dry fried chicken. I've been to many Chinese restaurants and this dish is unique to Red Chillie alone. They batter and deep fry the chicken right when you order, so it's as fresh as it can possibly be. Consider trying it "Thai-style" if you want something spicier. Whenever I have out-of-town friends visiting I always make sure to treat them to this and they all love it. I think also worth mentioning is they have a "secret" menu consisting of many internationally inspired foods like chicken chicharrones and other Peruvian dishes including Inca Kola.
Amazing Chinese take-out! Drove from Mississauga for pickup based off of a recommendation and was not sorry at all for doing the drive! Quality of the food was incredible. Great portion sizes. Flavor was awesome. And their sauces were not your traditional bottled stuff you get everywhere! Sweet and sour sauce was freshly made, no packets of plum sauce for egg rolls, they gave freshly made sauce that was delicious. Ordered shrimp in lobster sauce, beef with mushrooms (amazing!), egg rolls, spring rolls, orange zest chicken (amazing!), Cantonese soft noodles and veggie fried rice. Will 100% order from here again!
Vegetarian options: Converted some dishes to vegan Food
Definitely the best Chinese food in Oakville. Excellent flavors and plenty of food. Our go to place.
Food was good, my favorite is the creamy corn soup! Sad it s only carry out
Best take out/delivery Chinese food in Oakville.
I ordered fried rice and crisp chicken. The rice was good but the chicken had nothing to do with I ordered. It tasted like a chicken that was made earlier it wasn t crisp at all and also had some type of sauce that I hated. I just lost my appetite that night besides throwing my money out
Red Chillie never dissapoints! If it is your first Red Chillie experience... I highly recommend the Orange Beef, Sesame Chicken, and Dry Fried Green Bean. I hear the Calgary Beef is incredible as well, but I have yet to try that. Enjoy!!!
My daughter loves the Calgary style beef, she normally order by the phone but the customer service over the phone was not nice , the person sounds like no patience.
We ve been ordering here for over 14 years. The portions of meat in the rice are much better than the other Chinese restaurants in the neighbourhood.
They make good food and the prices are reasonable.
Ordered from here 3 times - twice through Skip The Dishes. The first two orders were amazing. Unfortunately the 3rd was not, and I doubt I will order from here again. Food arrived barely warm and extremely greasy. I suspect nothing had been freshly prepared either - the time duration between placing the order and arrival of the order was 1/2 an hour and Red Chillie is a 15 minute drive from where I live. Deeply disappointed.
Consistently great tasting meals!
The food are all delicious and fresh. The hot chili oil is on-point! The place is mice and quaint and clean and the staff are friendly.
I ordered over the phone and the person took my order I think his name was justin, took my order wonderfully he was great to help with my order and made my life easier.The food was great to I personally loved the chicken balls.
This is a take out location only. Order ahead or just show up. They also deliver. The food is great tasting, hot and freshly cooked. The portions are large and this reflects the price. The staff is friendly and helpful. The kitchen is in full view, clean, organized and fully staffed. Menu prices are based on paying with a credit card. Pay with cash and get a discount. See you there.
I dont normally write reviews but i just placed an ordered from here and i have to say that was delicious!!
Always awesome. Calamari to die for
Ordered from them using skipthedishes and the food was not etable. Noodles were burnt. Rice though we mentioned vegan was full of shrimp. Hot and sour soup was tangy at best. All in all not worth the money they are charging for food thats below par..
Love the house special fried rice. It is a little hard to see in the mall, they are at the North end by the TD Bank. Ignore the 1 stars, just love the food Have really fallen for the Pad Thai as well.
Great restaurant...
Excellent as usual.
Always delivered hot, plenty of food and generous portions. Never a bad order. Always good
Terrible food. Not recommend.
Been ordering from Red Chili for some time now. Have noticed a big decline in the quality of food. It became one of the worst Chinese restaurants in Oakville. That combined with a rude staff and horrible service over the phone. Very disappointed and glad there are many other better alternatives now.
Beautiful during the summer. The grounds keepers do a great job.
My Favourite Chinese takeaway in Oakville! We ve never had a bad dish, food is always hot when we get it home (12 min drive) and there s always leftovers!
Worst Chinese food ever!! Honest review!
Great ribs and soups
My new go-to Chinese takeout restaurant. The crispy beef in orange peel sauce is amazing!
My go-to Chinese food spot in Oakville. Try the pork fried rice.
Awesome delicious food always delivered promptly and piping hot.
Do they offer vegan dishes?
The best in Oakville by far! Another great family dinner last night! Hot, delicious and timely! The Calgary Ginger Beef is a show stopper! Enjoying takeout here for over 20 years and we have never been disappointed!
This is a good option for takeout Chinese food in Oakville. Portion sizes are good for the price and dishes are tasty. The only downside for me is I find the stir-fry a little on the oily side.
Great food, fast service. Good portion sizes. Try their Peruvian Chifa menu. One of the only places that does the Peru Chifa plates.
Not tasty. Won t come again.
The best Chinese restaurant in Oakville. My family and I have been enjoying this authentic take out for over 20 years.
First time having their food. The place is takeout only. Everything we ordered was delicious. Portions are good size and well priced. I will definitely be ordering from them again!!!
Best chinese food in Oakville for sure!
Have been ordering takeout from Red Chilli for 17 years now. Always delicious food and hot when you get it. My favourites are the crispy pork chunks in honey garlic sauce, shanghai noodles, and dry vancouver calamari, but there are many other great things on the menu.
Ordered based on all the rave reviews, and was not impressed by the taste of the food. The portions are good however the taste is not to our liking. The vegetable hot & sour soup tasted more of vinegar. Steamed dumpling looked like frozen or reheated ones. Overall, disappointed with the food.
We have seen Red Chillie recommended and so we tried it last night. It exceeded our expectations. We loved everything we had. Thank you so much for a delicious meal!
The best Chinese takeout in Oakville. They have catered us for 15+ years for many occasions and quick takeout for weekends. Always accommodated our request for Extra spicy for our favorites . Dry Vancouver Calamari, Fish in Black bean sauce and chicken fried rice has been amazing!
I just have one thing to say about this place CASH OR CREDIT CARD I NEVER GET THE CORRECT CHANGE I REALLY DONT WANT TO SAY I DIDNT GET THE CORRECT MONEY!!!
Use to order all the time from here quality of food not the same. Dont know why
Oh man, Red Chillie is the best gosh-darned Chinese spot in Oakville. They never let me down. The chillie oil is always spot on and now you can buy it by the jar (hot tip: do that!)
Tasty and good price-value balance. Good order site and very fast service.
A little expensive, but food was delicious.
Excellent food. The best in Oakville
Always good food and wide menu
Best Chinese food anywhere in the GTA. Good portion sizes, good quality ingredients & great pricing!
Tried first time. Worst Chinese food ever. There was no salt in shanghai veg noodle and tofu in bean sauce was burnt. Won t recommend to anyone.
Best Chinese in Oakville
Ordered takeout they said ready in 45 mins. My son went to pick it up, it was an hour late and they charged him full price. Never again.
Never had a bad experience. Wait time can be long but I find that with most of the good chains. Food is good. Try the spicy peanut chicken its great
Terrible and slow service
Consistently great food, large portions. Thai basil beef and dry Vancouver calamari are favorites.
Mediocre.
Best Chinese food in Oakville.
best in oakville! my family has been ordering from here for what seems like a decade - always consistent and tasty!
Very delicious food. The New Calgary Beef is amazing!
We recently moved to the neighbourhood so i wanted to try a Chinese food restaurant that was closer to home but unfortunately it was hugely disappointing. We tried 4-5 different dishes and they were all not very good. I usually LOVE leftovers the next day but instead, I threw them out. I found the dishes to be bland and mushy or really tough, especially the chicken dishes. The lemon chicken was the worst Ive ever had. Sorry, I tried. I read the reviews (some were horrible btw) and some were good so I gave it a shot but it didnt work out.
I ordered the corn soup, chicken with ginger sauce, chicken chop suey, and braised tofu with vegetables. I was thinking it was a bit overpriced looking at the menu but when the food arrived, the portions were huge! Food was so fresh, not too greasy, and massive chunks of chicken and tofu. Some of the best Chinese I ve had in the west GTA for sure.
#1 Chinese cuisine in Halton!!!!! Thank you red chillie
Maybe the worst Chinese food in SWO. It used to be ok but is beyound bad now... absolutely tasteless. All dishes.
Red Chillie: what a busy place for take-out! We have ordered a few times now and it is has always been a pleasant experience! Wen and his team are the best!
Awesome!
Most take out-only restaurants use the same vegetable ingredients in all their dishes - carrots, onions, celery - making them almost indistinguishable, if not for the sauce. Red Chillie was a sit-down restaurant at the original location, so the food is always high quality! The food is delicious!
I like lemon chicken
I ordered food for delivery directly from the restaurant as opposed to the fees from SKD. The food was hot, fresh, and at my doorstep un under 20 minutes. Easy to order, great portions for my hungry family.
Customer service was exceptionally friendly. We ordered there and the young boy named Jacob, behind the counter really made my day. He was so so nice and when I was uncultured and had no clue what to order. He was quick to help me out and give me his personal recommendations. This man deserves the highest pay possible and not to mention a promotion. DRY FRIED CHICKEN IS THE BOMB THO. Definitely coming back because of how good the food was and the great service!!
Tasty and fast chinese takeout spot. Ordered spring rolls, house fried rice, general tso chicken, lemon chicken. Only thing to remember if you dont order a dinner and want fortune cookies you need to ask for separately.
Excellent place, try the Peruvian menu.
On Valentines day, I called in my regular order which was within my purchase history, chicken teriyaki, substitute the broccoli for green peppers. Usually 15 minutes to prepare. When I arrived, the 2 boys at the front couldnt find the order and had looked over the pick up orders three times and went in the back to check in with the ladies 3 times. No invoice/slip any where. The manager came back and then said 2 minutes. They asked for my order since they never had the print out and I verbally gave and reminded them to substitute green peppers for broccoli. Within 8 minutes it was put together. When I went home to eat, it had broccoli. I brought it back and the manager was rude did nothing to fix the issue. She refunded the purchase. I was extremely disappointed with my experience and I would not recommend going their.
Good food but very over priced. Very poor service, currently waiting for driver to return with my drinks, been waiting 15 minutes despite getting in contact with restaurant a minute later and being told they are on their way....
If you are not sure what to order, get the sesame chicken with the house special rice. Both are amazing and together even better. As an infrequent customer, they are honest and serve a great product.
Always seem to be closed...
Good food, variety. You should know what to order otherwise youll have surprises. We used to order beef fried rice and chicken fried rice 2 boxes are enough for four people
Absolute garbage. Had family over for supper and ordered $120. They gave me two wrong meals and no fortune cookies??? I can definitely say that I did not enjoy any of the dishes. If youre looking for Chinese food in Oakville, go to Oak Gardens.
Didn t like the food much and it is expensive. Only plus side is quantity is good.
Great taste, good portions. Well be back
The best Canadian Chinese-style food option in town, but it doesnt come anywhere close to the Chinese restaurants in Mississauga and eastward. I suspect with the changing demographics of the Town, its only a matter of time before a more authentic Chinese restaurant opens up in Oakville. Regardless, a nice option with good value and selection. The Honey Garlic Tofu is a nice dish. Note: They often charge an extra $1 on their stated menu items.
Try the Vancouver RIBS
The food is tasty, but the quality of the meat, is gross. Stick to the carbs and vegetables, because I have no idea what part of the cow their beef is from.
Spanish menu for Peruvian chifa is the best feature of this take out restaurant. We love their food and regularly buy from them. My kids love their chaufa aka fried rice.
This is a place I go often, food is good and potion is enough for 2 or 3.
Love the Latin menu here !!!
The food was good but it would be better if they also included specials for one person and not only for families and small villages.
Great customer service! One of our items was wrong when it was delivered. They delivered the correct item right away and didn t charge us. The young woman on the phone was also very pleasant and helpful.
Im a long time customer of red chillies but the service I received today was appalling. I have been ordering sheshuan noodles for years and they have always arrived with thick fat noodles. Today my order showed up with a shanghai noodle. I called to let the manager know about the mistake. He told me I need to ask for the fat noodle which had never been an issue before. I explained that I would like to have the error corrected or my money back. He told me he would only do so if I returned the food that my family had already dug into (to serve to other guests?!) We have already waited over an hour for the food to arrive and werent about to wait another hour for someone to come pick up the noodles while the rest of the food gets cold. When I told the manager that hes lost a long time customer and I will not order from them again he said thats fine and hung up. I hope he thinks this review is fine as well.
We tried the crispy beef that R liked. It was delish along with the other dishes we ordered. I am so stuffed now!...and there are leftovers...
One of the worst $60.00 dollars I ever spent. The Calgary Crispy Ginger Beef was the only thing that kept me coming back in the first place but not anymore. I wont buy from here ever again, their quality went down.
Always good food
Not much to look at but great Chinese food
Been ordering from here for over 6 years. Hands down the best peanut tofu Ive ever had. Quality has never failed!
The worst chinese food I have ever eatin. Lack of flavour and was $ 60.00. Yuck
Enjoy your food and super fast!!
Easily the best Chinese Food in Oakville
Frustrating beyond belief! Whoever the girl is that answers the phone needs to be replaced. One of the most incompetent people Ive ever talked to. I was told itd be 40 mins for delivery, it came barely warm an hour and a half later. Upon opening, they messed up my order. The food was sub par at best, really nothing special. Perhaps it wouldve been better hot, or at least warm. I would recommend this place to anyone. Will NEVER order here again.
Not bad
Love the food, wish that staff showed up before they were to open at 12pm, not at 12:05pm and then had to wait for them to set up
Good quality Chinese food. Seems to be less oil used and more flavour. Never had a bad experience here. Go to Chinese in oakville..
The woman that answers the phone to take order is very rude.
There are no tables to eat at, so the atmosphere isnt important, only the quality of the food you get either delivered or pick up to go. Its fantastic food and I highly recommend the crispy shrimp, but if youre picking it up keep in mind that they wait until youre there to quickly fry up the breaded shrimp so that its as fresh as possible.
They used to serve good food, but not anymore, our last order went 100% to waste. Beef taste like anything but beef, also very chewy, and instead of strips it came in wide big pieces , couldnt swallow this thing even when Im starving. Fried shrimps also very bad, rubber shrimps. Not to mention that everything was greasy even the thin noodles.. Im never going back and not recommending at all. For this amount of money, I would have better food somewhere else.
Good food. Stick to the most popular items in the menu and pick-up.
Delicious food and fast service. They take cash or credit card only though.
Went there few times over the last months. Always great tasting dishes. We always stick with the classics though.
Good place to go when youre in the mood for Chinese food in the Glen Abbey area. We have been going to Red Chillie for a long time and it has always been good and sometimes great. It really depends on what you order (which is true of many restaurants with large menus). Nothing is bad by any means, but some dishes are much better than others. Experiment with what you like and when in doubt be sure to ask the folks at Red Chillie for their recommendations.
Food is fantastic! Ive never had a bad experience there and the delivery is unbelievably fast. Its actually faster than getting pizza delivered. One of our favorites is the crispy beef with orange peel sauce.
DRY FRIED CHICKEN IS WHERE ITS AT!
We Just order For the first time as we Just moved into the neibourhood, IT WAS A BAD BAD EXPERIENCE, so we order three diferente disheds along with some Spring Roll, egg rolls, we specifically requested napkins, plates, extra hot sauce, and none of the mention was sent to us, we didnt even get napkins, or fortune cookies, when we called, they said they dont have napkins! And the rest of the items would be deliver to us by the time we got some of the items because not everything was sent to us food was cold! And food was NOT all that good, extremely greasy!! do not order u WILL BE DISSAPOINTED!! NO NAPKINS, What I am I suppose to lick my fingers!! Any suggestions on better Chineese Cuisne in the area???
Best chinese food ever
Be careful with your bill. They added $4 out of nowhere calculating individual soups instead of the price for 4 . Then they put 3 in the bag. This is not the first time. Last time the girl said she did not know how to enter the right price in the system. This time they got more creative. This is the absolute last time for me.
Best Chinese Ive had. Everything is fantastic except their seafood is fair.
