Authentic Hong Kong cuisine. Very nice lady who accommodated us without a reservation. I would recommend you book a table if you want to eat in as there is limited availability.

Traditional roasted food and Hongkong style milk tea and coffee. It's worthwhile to try it.

Roasta Preston finally reopens!This has to be the best and most authentic Chinese restaurants (cantonese cuisine to be more specific) in Preston that beats many in Manchester or even London!Highly recommend roasted pork with crispy skin, crispy chicken, deep fried oyster, fried rice with fermented vege, stir fried beans with minced pork (or simply ask the owner what popular dishes Hong Kongers would typically order). They also serve the best in town Hong Kong style milk tea with super rich tea aroma with hybrid mix which is the owner's secret recipe.Best to come in a bigger group (at least 4 persons) to share multiple dishes. Every dish is equally satisfying. Remember to call and make reservation as they are always busy.

order 3 meat rice, if you don’t have the meal of your life you are dead inside.

Was nearly sick. Food was almost inedible. The rice was lumpy and like it had just been microwaved, my friend said her noodles were watery and the beef was mostly fat. Not to my taste at all. Very few vegetarian options too, but the were very nice and friendly.

Hands down the best Roast meats Hong Kong style in the north of England, the little beauty is hidden away in Preston, Lancashire. The roast is done daily and is the best tasting duck and belly pork I’ve eaten in a long time. The belly pork is so crispy that if you have any leftover and take home, should you microwave it to reheat ( oven reheating is best) it is still crispy, doesn’t go soggy like majority of belly pork from restaurants all over the uk. The duck has authentic marinade that makes it mouth watering, they serve many HK delicacies that you can try, ranging from inards to fresh vegetables… the menu is great, the place is more like a cafe and has limited seating, they are constantly full all day everyday so advance booking is recommended. You know is good food when orientals done there, I kid you not, everyone eats there…. I travel 90 minutes by car just to sample the goods…. Definitely worth the drive even if motorways close and force you to detour to get home… amazing place, run by amazing couple… so kind and generous….. this is in my top 5 places to eat within the uk… big thumbs up

Delicious Cantonese food.Shrimp was cooked perfectly in the sweat and sour sauce. There was plenty of sweat and sour sauce to have with the good portion of rice. The green beans with garlic and pork mince had great umami taste. The pork belly was cooked great too with very nice crispiness on top. Good service from the staff as well.

Roasta Preston is located in Preston, Lancashire. It privides authentic Cantonese cuisine. We ordered Duo Meat Platter (roasted pork & soy source marinated chicken) and Fried chicken thigh with shrimp paste in homemade broth). The roasted pork is yummy and cripsy. The place is clean and the female owner has provided a good and attentive service.*The shop will be closed from mid May to mid August 2023 for summer break. Please check if they open during this period before you go there**

Delicious three roast meats! Authentic Hong Kong cuisine, with lovely staff! Cash only, there’s a car park behind the takeaway. Definitely give a visit!

We had the most amazing lunch at Roasta, by far the most DELICIOUS, authentic Chinese food we've ever had. We ordered trio of roast meats - Duck, Char Sui and Siu Yuk pork. Roasted to perfection and full of flavour. That crispy crackling on the Siu Yuk is heavenly. Even though we thought the meats would be the star of the show, the sides were just as good, if not even more delicious. Beautiful handmade noodles in flavoursome broth - simple but so moorish. Green beans stir fried with mince pork and preserved olives - I honestly would go back JUST for a plate of this! Finally, Tofu with spiced black bean sauce - mouthwatering! Very generous portion sizes, reasonably priced for the quality of the food We had to take some home because we couldn't finish it all and we can EAT I already can't wait to return and bring our friends who we know will love it too. PLUS, to top off the AMAZING food the service was so friendly and welcoming - thank you!
