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.

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.

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!

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.Vegetarian options: There is a vegetarian menu and the options are great. My sister said it's the best food she's had out for a vegetarian.

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!

Two course £13.50 lunch. Spring roll starter very small. Soup so so. Mains decent. Poor tired decor. Carpet revolting. 10% service charge but not mentioned on menu but added anyway. Was poor value without this including 2 flat soft drinks. No doubt from a bottle. Poor value full stop. Avoid. We certainly will in future.

We recently popped to Southampton for the day and decided to head for Tangs. We weren't disappointed. The staff made us feel very welcome and were happy to stop and chat. We decided to go for the excellent value lunch menu which was 2 courses for £13.50. We had the mushroom soup and salt and pepper chicken wings to start. The soup was was watery but tasty. The chicken wings were delicious I was told. For mains we had tofu szechuan and sweet and sour chicken with rice. The mains are served on a large plate so there was plenty of food. There was a good selection of drinks on offer including Stella on draught. All in all a lovely lunchtime meal.

Best restaurant there is in Southampton. Amazing service, welcoming, kind staff and delicious food. 10/10 restaurant.

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’ve eaten here a few times now. The food is always good and the portions generous. Drinks are a sensible price. The owner and staff are very friendly. The buffet is excellent value for money, especially compared to the “all you can eat” places locally

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!!

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!
