Red Cap

Was really impressed by the food from Red Cap. Service was friendly and they customised the spice of a dish which was good. Food cooked quickly and it was all lovely. Seems a lot more tasty than other Chinese food I've had, and they advertise no MSG which is good. I would usually eat a whole fried rice and main dish from a Takeaway, but struggled to finish this and had nearly a full tub of food left afterwards. Definitely recommended, and this will be my new go to Chinese Takeaway!

Shocking. Firstly the waiting area resembled a child's nursery. Toy car,oven,toy tool bench,3 adult bikes and a big box of Lego. Loads of white flies hovering above the counter and around the lights. Cobwebs dangling from the ceiling. I had a combination curry. I don't think they remembered to put any spice in the the curry. It was just a tasteless sauce. The chips were old,rock hard and not very warm. Absolutely horrible experience. The place has always been a dump but the food is normally very nice. Sorry, not on this occasion!

So lovely. I’ve just moved to the UK from Hong Kong (but was a foreigner there) and had been craving fried noodles all week, the vegetable chow mien (in photo) was exactly what I wanted! Nice to see a variety of vegetables mixed in too and portion sizes are satisfying and not excessive. The egg fried rice was tasty too. The green pepper and chicken in black bean sauce tastes great initially but was too sweet, hard to eat lot. The
vegetables in oyster sauce had a nice subtle flavour and was filling. They also kindly surprised us with some free spring rolls and prawn crackers! And to make it even better we paid just £20 for the chow mien, black bean sauce chicken, oyster sauce vegetables, plain rice and egg fried rice.

We got the food in person so can’t comment on delivery.

Ordered salt and pepper king prawn starter, chicken satay main and both were absolutely delicious. I'm only in Nottingham for work for a day or 2 but I hope I'll be back. Lovely food and friendly service.

One of the best around for takeout in my opinion. Generous portions, tasty food, and a very reasonable price.

Someone rated this place badly in a review below, complaining about kids toys being everywhere. Yes there’s kids toys everywhere, and sometimes the child is playing in the front of the shop too. I assume this is a family run business doing their best to bring up a child while running a take away. Good for them too! What a stupid thing to complain about.

What matters is the food and the service - and I can’t fault either.

Very disappointed. Ordered our food @6.20pm to be told delivery up to 1 hour & 10 minuits. We waited 1 hour & 50 minutes. Had to call to find out how long it would be to be told driver is on his way. When we finally did receive it, it was cold. Food would have been lovely if it was not cold.

The food was hot and tasty . The fried rice was very nice with the chilli oil .Good portion . The soup was hot . Friendly staff. Definitely recommended .

I've always been happy with my food, the service and delivery over the years. Though that has changed the past few orders, it seems the portions have gotten smaller and less sauce with the curry. Compared to how the portions uses to be with loads of sauce.
But tonight after a two hour and fifteen minutes waited when I was told seventy minutes, phoned a couple of times to find out, told the driver would be with me in the next ten minutes, which they weren't. Sadly, with tonight's, Red Cap has lost a loyal customer of ten plus years.
