In all of my 60 years on planet earth. I have never enjoyed a meal as much as I did tonight at Hongxin in Swindon. The selection was extremely varied and every mouthful I had was a taste explosion in itself. My wife and I are expats living in Canada and we feel like we won the lottery visiting this fine establishment, as Chinese food in Canada is much less varied or anywhere as tasty as the food we ate tonight.Big shout out for the chefs, the staff and the spotless restaurant which we experienced tonight. If you are visiting Swindon and love Chinese food. Do your tatebuds a favour and visit Hongxin. And the price is just as good as the amazing food.

It has got very expensive for what it is, especially as it is self

Food was ok, just felt it wasn't fair to charge adult prices for my 11 year old just because he's tall.

My absolute favourite place on the planet!! The staff and atmosphere are fabulous for any occasion, but the food is just off the scale!! They do some fine egg noodles and broccoli in garlic sauce that usually takes up most room with me. But I love that you can be brave and try just a little bite of new dishes and help find a new favourite. Last time I visited, I tried the takeaway version. This is definitely the best value takeaway anywhere, as you aren't tied to having a whole tub filled with one dish. I shall definitely be doing this again.Kid-friendliness: My last family visit included my two great-grandchildren who were welcomed, although not paying guests. We were offered high chairs and bottle warming facilities for the little one. Nothing was too much trouble. Many other families had children, also.

Went there for Mother's Day. What a let down! After making a confirmed reservation, there was lots of confusion over how long we could stay and the time of our booking. Not a positive welcome. Food - little choice, most of it cold. Will NOT be going back again.

Ordered home delivery and got food poisoning soon after. Wouldn't recommend this place!
Went on a Saturday eve around 6pm. BIG MISTAKE!!!It was heaving....people pushing & shoving to get to the food before it ran out.CRAZY PLACE....If you go here go mid week its better.We paid £22 per head. It was our worst experiance of an all you can eat buffet restaurent due to the lack of dishes as the chefs could not keep up with the influx of people.No nice king prawn dishes except a watery pink liquid looking soup with green bits floating in it that looked like something the dog threw up YUK!!!The chicken was very drySesame prawn in toast were also over cookedLots of empty tins not being refilled.... very restricted on what dishes you could have...No bbq spare ribsNo Egg fried riceNo plain chow mein? These are the 3 main dishes that should be on!It seems to me that the owners just want to cram as many people in as posible so to get as much money as posible but they are unable to provide any decent food to cater for that amount of people....for £22 per head we expected better & a good choice.We found it a complete rip off & not a very nice experience.Very solum unhappy looking staff, trained to whip away your plate on your last mouthfull!!!!

Food is standard buffet food. Nothing to shout about but not bad either.Major problem was that they tried to charge for my 1 year old son when he literally had a chip. When I brought it to the attention of the person behind the counter, they was quite rude in their response.

i went with my family last night and really had a chinese experience. my grandaughter had to have her height measured to let them know should she eat as a child for £12.50 or adult £18.95. we explained that she does not eat very much but they would not listen and was told to stand to one side and think about it. i found this to be horrendous and intimidating and being treated like dirt onthe bottom of their shoe. we did go in evenually we were treated horrible and no one wanted to come near our table. the food was not very nice and at one point i put sweet and sour chicken, beef with mushrooms and beef chow mein. the sweet and sour chicken was soggy and tasted of nothing as did the beef and mushrooms and also the chow mein. i would not recommend this place to eat and will never set foot back in there. i know alot of people locally and will let everyone i speak to not to eat there. they are rude and abnoxiousParking: it is not about the parking it is about how you get treatedWheelchair accessibility: i dont really think it is wheelchair friendly

Charge a tall child adult prices even tho they barely eat, no signs on any puddings to let anyone with allergies no what they can/can’t eatRude staff that argue with you because you want tap water not bottled water that costs the earthWill not be returning
