"So yesterday I went for lunch at the canalside and it has seriously went downhill. I posted a wee comment on their page without going into detail all I said was I was disappointed, as I don't believe in totally slating a business on fb. However they have now deleted my post and blocked me from their page so I am taking it upon myself to leave an honest review. 21 pounds for 2 course isn't the cheapest so I expected something at least edible. I can't fault the waiting staff as they did their job and the food was served promptly as we explained we were in a bit of a rush. I ordered the tomatoe and roast pepper soup for starter and the festive burger for main. Bearing in mind this was 21 quid.... The soup was basically as though they'd opened a tin of tomatoes and heat it up. Nothing more, nothing less. I'd have put up with that as a starter if the burger that came next was actually so bad that we were sniffing it before every bite as there was strange whiff to the meat which us panicking it was off, which we really shouldn't be having to do. We ended up leaving it . The only part which was actually good was the pigs in blankets on top. The point of my post is why can't I post an honest criticism about food which I paid good money for without getting blocked. All I said on the page that they have went down hill. Any decent business would have wanted to know what the issue was in the hope to resolve it for future potential customers. Make your own mind up but I won't be back ."

"Saturday Night prebooked online and paid deposit per person. place was empty only another 3 tables taken, not the most welcoming place initially from the staff didn't look happy. We took our seats then told that we had to order via the APP then it changed to that it would be quicker if we ordered at the bar so that everything came out at the same time. Very strange as all other places you place your order with a waiter, so we ordered at the bar for drinks and mains and was surprised that we had to pay straight away as they are not allowed to have tabs open. Service was slow i could hear the just eat machine constantly beeping and see delivery drivers come and go. When the food did it was disappointing to see the portion sizes have changed and got a lot smaller, not really worth the price. Not once did a member of staff come over to check everything was okay or try to sell more drinks what you'd expect. They looked too busy cutting paper sheets for boxes that they building for takeaway orders, they had few tables at entrance where they had it all sitting on . We ordered deserts and these where extremely disappointing,we ordered 2 meringues nothing like the pictures or what had before was tiny and bottom too hard to eat. 1 cookie jar sundae it was not served in a jam jar as advertised, it was a small glass from the bar. When the deserts where brought to the table we still had all the mains plates sitting that we had to stack up and then ask one the members of staff for them to be taken away so had space to eat deserts not the service you expect. They also automatically add £1 to your bill so every time you order anything that's £1 for a charity i don't mind if you maybe ask first but should never be expected!. Overall the service and experience was the worst dinning experience received we felt that we where an inconvenience to the staff. If they continue to treat customers this way then this place will close, i think they mostly relay on online order which is a bad model for this sort of establishment. i would advise you pick somewhere else other than here and if you try comment on their social media page they will block you thankfully they are unable to do that on here. I have also emailed my concerns before leaving this review but nobody has taken the time to respond in over a month now."

"Just had a meal at 'Yang Sing ' in Camelon in Falkirk. Although it was pretty quiet tonight(I suspect due due to Bad weather and flooding which even had ducks breaking out their umbrellas ' and wellies food was plentiful, hot and very tasty. On entry we received a really friendly greeting from the staff before being escorted to a table which was clean, comfortable and in a lovely warm place. Decor was done to a good standard and tables were clean and well covered, there was quite a few staff in the restaurant despite a night when fish could be swimming along the roads and down the drains due to the flooding, the staff on duty were friendly and very attentive. To start we ordered drinks which were delivered within a couple of minutes and then given ample time to help ourselves from the well-stocked buffet. Whilst we were enjoying our meal some of the staff took the time to talk to us, and all were very polite and helpful(Special Shoutout to our favourite Server Ankie(Sorry about spelling anyway she is very polite, helpful funny . Can 't compliment staff enough, they genuinely seemed interested in us and made sure we were enjoying our meal, cleared dirty plates quickly and anything we asked was done quickly efficiently and always with a smile.(i.e. Mrs R asked if cream jug could be refilled which was done in seconds . Been here before and always enjoyed it, we find there is a good variety of food including soups(with bread and real butter not any of that half-hearted spread pretending to be butter . Main meals catering to various pallets and of course a large selection of sweets(absolutely loved The Victoria Sponge tonight . Being 'Fat Gitts ' Me and 'Mr R ' junior couldn 't resist various visits to the sweet area and the only thing that stopped us trying every sweet on menu was realization of our gluttony. Will definitely be back."

"Phoned in advance to ask about it being dog friendly, which I was informed it is but have to be seated outside. Not a friendly entrance, when seated we were seated in a corner so it wasn’t as windy but was freezing, there was no heaters or perspex to try and keep the wind out and heat in, my grandparent is 85 and not saying places have to offer blankets but I know of places that do when you are sitting outside. There were left over cigarette ends left in an ash try on the table, the table wasn’t cleaned either. Had to order everything from inside, they don’t bother coming out unless it’s to take your food out/in. The waitress was so unfriendly when ordering food at the desk as well as having to repeat my order 3 times, it was 2 starters and 2 mains that were straight forward. The menu was so basic and simple. The mains were basically salads bar 2 burger options. The food was bland and boring, something you could make at your own home! The haggis for starters was very greasy, the chicken burger for mains didn’t have sauce in it, the bun just fell apart. The mushroom soup wasn’t something the brag about and the tuna toasty was just average. The icing on top of the cake was that they can’t fill up the dog bowls with water, as apparently they aren’t allowed to touch them? I just used water from my car as I never got shown an outside tap, felt like you had to do everything yourself bar make the food. Food was okay priced but just simple things like vinaigrette would have been nice on the salad. Wouldn’t rush back in a hurry, nicer places to try, was organically going to go to the cafe at Canada Woods but unfortunately it was closed for today."

"Service looses a star because the staff were clearly stressed and struggling with the amount of orders they had to deal with. Luckily they remained polite to our faces while we waited for our food, but it was still a bit distracting. They no longer offer sit in after COVID-19, and we really did want to sit in, too. There is perfect space and lovely decor inside that set a wonderful atmosphere for the food you're about to eat, so it would have been even better if we could have dined inside. I digress, however, as this was one of, if not the, best Chinese I have tried in the Falkirk area. Walked back home and food was still warm to eat. I had a Cantonese style Sweet and Sour chicken and it was beautiful. My partner and my father had the same main dish and throughout them eating it they continuously made comments on how wonderful it was. My partner even shared some pieces of his meal with me and I do have to agree, it was fantastic. It was really quite busy for a Tuesday night. I would love to see the dine in option become available at this restaurant again! Will be ordering from here again. Wheelchair accessibility: Stairs on entry to building, not accessible if you're in a wheelchair unfortunately! You'd have to call and order a delivery to experience the cuisine on offer here.
