    The food was just gorgeous at Trongs today. Authentic and rich in flavour across the board. Service was friendly by the team and the owner. Staff were attentive and brought water to the table automatically. It is a shame they do not do larger sizes in soft drinks. Also I had asked for items such as a straw for the drink or cutlery and this was forgotten. The toilets although compact did the job. I would still however recommend and visit again given the minor flaws noted today. Free parking after 18:00 using the car park opposite the location.

    Just came back from Trongs and what an experience it was. Absolutley gorgeous food along with very friendly and attentive owners. The food was delicious and by far the nicest Chinese I've been to, will definitely be returning!

    Excellent food, with even better service. Tip: Don't use the menu, ask them to 'feed you' and they'll bring out a variety of different dishes. One of the best places to eat in Ipswich - highly recommended.

    Yesterday was my second visit to Trong's. Though I turned up rather spontaneously and didn't have a dinner reservation, I was given a time that a table would be ready. Upon returning, a table was swiftly granted served with water immediately. I rarely visit the same restaurant twice. The setting and the staff are so welcoming, it made me want to return. I tried the Vietnamese Spring Rolls (fried) and the taste was far beyond my expectations. I truly recommend these: The spring roll melts in the mouth on bite and taste oozes from every bite thereafter. They were so good I tried to ask for the secret from the man I believe to be the manager/owner. He revealed the story of the delicacy... it was his mother's recipe, it was a satisfying to hear such an honest answer with so much history. During my stay in Ipswich and visiting multiple restaurants - Trong's provide the best quantity and quality for the price you are paying. The family nature of the staff truly makes this a comforting experience serving comfort food whilst I am far from home.

    This is one of the best places I’ve ever had chance to try Asian food. The owner is amazingly courteous, the food is astonishing, you can go just with the appetizers and leave super satisfied and full. Shredded duck with pancakes is an absolute masterpiece. Almost every dish is decorated with roses made of vegetables. I will be coming back whenever I’m around.

    Really cosy, much loved restaurant. I was being treated, and the food was tasty enough We had the Veggie set menu which gives you chance to try different food. Service was great. Not as manic as Mister Wings, and chopsticks here are a given (although you can ask for cutlery). All in all a lovely treat.

    Simply fantastic, have been several times and it’s the best Chinese food I’ve ever had, excellent menu, with an added bonus that the food does not leave you feeling sickly after - wonderful! Service is second to none, so attentive and always topping up your water. You truly feel like a valued customer. The only Chinese we would eat at in Ipswich. Thank you Trongs!

    Went for my boyfriend's birthday and it was everything and more! We went for set menu G at £32.50pp. After the appetisers and Mongolian lamb wraps, we were already quite full and so barely touched the mains, but they were more than happy to pack them up for us! We both then had the ice cream to finish on a lighter note. The quality of the food was outstanding, I would highly recommend anything that comes with the black bean sauce, but the thing that shocked us the most was how reasonably priced it all was! Will definitely be going back!

    Early Friday evening this restaurant was buzzing. Soo pleased we booked. Attentive but not intrusive service. Excellent food. Wish we lived locally. Only one very small niggle as it was very busy the noise increased to a very high level was pleased to be seat on the edge of the main eating area.

    Fantastic Chinese food. We have visited so many times and it’s superb every single time! Our favourite dishes are the fried salt and pepper squid and kung pao prawns, but everything is amazing!

    Excellent quality of produce and taste . Very attentive by all staff. Comfortable space and room on the table for table of four . Had takeaways in the past but it is my first time back eating out there and it was first class

    We had the most amazing meal served by Foo and his staff whom we had known for many years , in particular seeing Foo again was great and catching up. We celebrated Paul’s birthday yesterday evening 3.5.2022 with superb food it can’t be praised enough ! with the overwhelming generosity of my brother and sister in law. We have made arrangements between the four of us to visit during June to celebrate George and Libby’s wedding anniversary. Can’t wait to take in your wonderful cuisine 👏🏻👏🏻🎉👏🏻👏🏻Marion Brown

    Have had take away from here before which has always been amazing! Last night we went for dinner to celebrate an engagement & 10yr anniversary, there was 13 of us in total. Absolutely incredible! Family run business- you can tell they take pride and joy in looking after their customers and making sure you have a pleasant experience. Cannot fault anything. We had the chefs choice which included gorgeous starters, mains and dessert. I am allergic to shellfish so couldnt have the spring rolls, Lucy brought me some vegetable spring rolls out instead so I didnt feel I was missing out. They are constantly filling your glass up, which was another lovely touch... dont think I poured myself a glass of wine at all. Even with a full restaurant you always feel your a priority. Honestly amazing and already planning a return... well done Trongs!! Also what's nice about the takeaway service is if they are busy (which they usually are!!! So make sure you book early) they won't take any more orders as they pride themselves on good food and don't want to risk it being of poor standard because they are busy.... says a lot to me!! 100% you've got to dine in and experience this gorgeous restaurant!!

    My daughter and two granddaughters were visiting and I decided to give Trongs a try. The restaurant is quite small. The wait staff are totally unobtrusive. Everything is done quietly and efficiently. Now to the food. We thought it was fabulous. There are a number of set meals starting at around £29 per head. We had several starters, and main dishes plus dessert. Well worth a visit. My girls are still talking about it.

    Absolutely fantastic! A bit skeptical ordering here because my family used to ordering Chinese takeaway in other Chinese restaurant, but yesterday they let me do the task of ordering food as we have guests coming in, upon reading good reviews from this restaurant, I thought I would give it go, I'm asian and I'm fussy about asian food. I called, the lady in the other end was really nice. Picked up the food, and was greeted with a nice welcoming vibe, restaurant was lovely and packed! Went home, had dinner and everybody agreed that it was way better than what we usually had in other Chinese takeaway. I don't usually leave comments but I thought, this is my way of thanking Trongs for giving me the closest best asian food I could get near me. Everything was simply divine, food wise, price wise and service wise. Planning to celebrate our special occasion in this restaurant. Will definitely our Chinese takeaway from now on. Highly recommended!!

    This has been one of my favourite restaurants for years. The quality is exceptional and it is consistently excellent. This latest visit was no exception. The staff are welcoming and engaging. The food is always quick to arrive, no matter what you choose from their extensive menu. I can highly recommend.

    Well unfortunately on this occasion we both was very seriously sick after visit on a Monday night 26 September, we was up all night being sick and feeling seriously bad, I have never had a bad experience here ever, I do not know why on this occasion, I have been for over 30 years to this fantastic restaurant, never had any issues, we had pork beef and chicken , was super sweet and all tasted similar, schezwan beef is normally quite spicy, but not like it normally is this time , a real shame for me to have to report this, the owner was his usual fantastic self super lovely self, cau I think he’s name ,I never remember names much. I hope this is just a one off experience

    for the past 26 years i have been frequenting Trongs, it never gets boring. Fu and the team are most welcoming no matter how busy they are, as was last night 31/3/22. I took some clients there and to their amazement, i requested that we leave the dishes and selection up to Fu, He didn't disappoint! AMAZING FOOD, 4 courses. Mixed Starter selection, Crispy duck, array of mains about 8 of them and then finished with fresh deserts and coffees. The taste buds were bouncing off the walls, nothing is too much trouble. It just seems to get better and better. As for the comment on another review about cost. If you want cheap Chinese go get a takeaway! This is a class restaurant with class owners and class food, worth every penny and i travel 32 miles each way to eat here. Keep up the great service Fu and family. See you all soon
