Paddyfields Restaurant

August 2018 At that time I was so hungry, confused what to eat. Found a chinese food restaurant, without thinking long, entered the resto. big portion with autentic szechuan taste, worth to try in Oxford. Close with Said Business School, Oxford Uni. - No parking area for a car. You must park in somewhere.

Enjoyed a lovely meal with a few friends last night. The service was excellent, staff were friendly and helpful. With the exception on one unidentified dish the food was fantastic. As a real bonus my friends bet me 50 that i wouldn't eat the entire unidentified dish of onion and hot salty snot. I'm pleased to report that I'm now 50 richer. The table has a spinning center, thought that was a nice touch.

Absolutely the Best Chinese restaurant we have ever eaten at. Their covid preparations are excellent, possibly the best in the city. Attentive staff, huge menu and comfortable atmosphere. We're sad we only found this restaurant on our last night in Oxford.

You wouldn’t notice it from the outside but it’s a secret gem! Good atmosphere - the quiet music and decorations. Most importantly food served hot, generous portions and very delicious. My personal favourite - crispy lamb hot and spicy vermicelli soup (on the photo) Other recommendations - sizzling beef, mapo tofu, milk tea and hot pot. If you like Chinese food, spicy food or just want to try something different - visit this place

Safest place to eat in Oxford! I was amazed with COVID safety measures!! Ultra fast temperature check at the entrance and each table is separated by safety screen. All staff wearing masks and gloves and steam stabilized cutlery!! Amazing food as well!!

This place is wonderful! Some really delicious and hard-to-find traditional Chinese dishes. The staff is fantastic and friendly, very courteous. They clearly put a huge amount of work into making the place Covid safe. I will definitely be back! Thanks Paddyfields!!

I love the food there though there's so much choice it takes a long time to go over the menu. Beef satay, chicken wings, spare ribs and aubergine were all excellent. Lots of Chinese clients were there too which is a good sign.

It might be easy to miss Paddyfields as it looks a bit inconspicuous on the outside and is not as widely lauded as some of the other Chinese restaurants in Oxford but if you are looking for an economical yet filling meal that will leave you thinking about it for days this restaurant is a must -try! Their menu can be a bit disorienting as there are so many options but the staff are very helpful and will give you recommendations and answer any questions. If you are going as a group it’s a good idea if everyone orders what they find appealing and you then share as then everyone will get a chance to try out more menu items. We went as a group of four and ordered a shredded crispy duck, pork belly hot pot, a beef in oyster sauce sizzle, black bean beef noodles, mixed meat dumplings, glutinous rice and a spicy sour soup. There was literally not a single dish that we disliked from the ones we ordered, everything was astonishingly delicious, it was prepared super quickly and the staff served it with a lot of care and attention to detail. The price in the end was 24 per person but considering we definitely ordered more than we could eat, I’d say you can get an amazing meal here for about 20 a head. Again I would like to emphasise that the staff was really kind and quick with the service and even patiently waited for us to finish our meal even as they were starting to close the restaurant. Overall brilliant food and excellent service for a very reasonable price, 5 from me
