Excellent quick meals

Well packed, arrive on named day, food easy to cook and tastes amazing. I’ve tried lots of the spicy meals and particularly like gong bao chicken, Dan Dan noodles, numbing fish and teriyaki chicken.

Authentic dishes and good value

I have ordered a couple of times and really like the dishes. The meals are authentic and always taste great. I amend the cooking instructions a bit to suit us and are great value.

You have to do so much work yourself

You have to do so much work yourself, and the products are not top class. The sauces are very salty and our chicken was fatty. All in all a very poor experience at a high price.

Some hits and some misses!

Edit : I have updated my review due to the amazing customer service at Wowzabox. They sent us some more meals to try and they were all really good, even the one with a lot of aubergine, which I'm not a fan of, it was still tasty. Hakka chicken satay, not like any other satay I've had, very subtle flavours, my husband said he really liked this one. The Lychee prawns were just fantastic, we both loved the fruity sweet sauce, like a more sophisticated version of sweet & sour. I will leave my original review below but I can't fault Wowzabox's customer service, they went above and beyond to keep a happy customer!

Firstly the very short dates were a big problem for us, we wanted the food for two Birthdays close together but only one was within the two days. This seems a very short window in which to cook six meals plus rice. We had to freeze some items or they would have gone past their use-by date, this was not ideal as not everything was really suitable for freezing. (Wowzabox advised that cooking the meals and then freezing them would be a better idea, quite right!) Secondly, the chicken for the Yellow braised chicken was really not good, I cut out at least 8 big pieces of cartilage/bone/gristle and a few small pieces were found in the chicken while we were eating. Skin was left on some of the chicken, crispy chicken skin is a delight, flabby soft chicken skin is not! The chicken also smelled weird during cooking which put me off a bit. Thirdly, the lamb pieces for the Mongolian lamb stir-fry were not great, the bag that contained them had a lot of blood in it, (I was advised that this was due to the marinade) the finished dish looked a bit odd and the lamb was a bit chewy too, which my husband hates, but he did still eat it. Lastly, the Red Oil noodles were really delicious, chewy but not unpleasantly so, I highly recommend these.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the flavour of our dishes, but I'm sorry to learn that some aspects did not meet your expectations.

Our meal kits are freshly prepared, which means they have a shorter shelf life. However, you can cook the meal first and freeze it for later use. Regarding the yellow braised chicken, it is traditionally prepared with skin on and bone in, which is crucial for the flavour. We understand that this can be an issue for some, and we have specifically labelled dishes with bone in on our website.

As for the lamb stir fry, we marinate the lamb, which might make it appear as if there is a lot of blood. I have passed your comment to our head chef to see if there is anything we can improve. For the red oil noodle, the key feature is the elasticity of the noodles, which makes them a bit chewier rather than soft. We understand that this might be surprising if you haven't had it before.

We have requested your order number to follow up on your feedback. Please kindly reply with the order number, and we will address your concerns promptly. Thank you again for your review!

Brilliant food not Chinese takeaway but…

Brilliant food not Chinese takeaway but classic Chinese food that’s easy to make because they’ve prepared it for you! It’s a bit different for a dinner party which I used it for with family. It also arrived on time carefully packed no problems.

Real Chinese Food Experience , more please

Wowza has become our go to instead of using Chinese Restaurants . We must have ordered at least thirty times, huge fans. The quality and authenticity is exceptional. Can't wait to see the new menu items.

Big fan of the Sichuan Numbing and Spicy Beef and Chongqing Chicken Pot but favourites are some of the veggie dishes, Emperor Cabbage Salad and Earth Umami Stir-fry.

Would love to see the range expand, some Thai or Vietnamese dishes maybe.

So happy to have found Wowzabox and…

So happy to have found Wowzabox and ordered for a second time. Even better than the first time, if that could be possible?

Beautifully packed, I ordered the food to arrive a day before I actually would cook it but it was no trouble at all. So well insulated, the video made everything very clear so that the written instructions became easy to use.

Thank you and I will be using you again!

Wow...Wow...Wowzabox!!!

Well, what can I say? From the secure and very cold packaging to the washing up, our experience was faultless. So very easy to follow the instructions and minimal pots and pans to wash! The tasty dishes were amazing, like going out to our favourite Chinese restaurant 😋 We couldn't stop saying 'wow' all the way through the meal! We will definitely be ordering again, we are having friends over for dinner soon, my only dilemma? Do I pretend I slaved all day or tell the truth!! 😉 Truth wins! I want to enjoy a fabulous meal round at our friends house, I will be taking advantage of the 'refer a friend' offer. Thank you so much everyone at Wowzabox for an incredible evening 💕

My 2nd box of 5 meals

This is my second box of 5 meals each that I've ordered. The meals are super tasty, good quality ingredients and so fast and easy to prepare. If you do not like too much chilli, order up to 2 chilli strength meals (and I still removed chilli pips before cooking) 😂. I will continue to order from them. Delicious, good food.

Fab tasty food

Fab tasty food! We absolutely loved the Mongolian Lamb and the Sweet and Sour Aubergines. Easy to make, all instructions clear and excellent value for money. Still have a couple of dishes to eat over next couple of days but so far will definitely order again.
