Awful, dry and tasteless Lemon chicken was rubbery and very bitter Ribs were very dry and inedible Chips hard and cold Rice very dry and tasteless All in all a waste of money as most of it went in the bin

Probably the worst and most bland Chinese takeaway I've ever had. God knows what the satay chicken was. Crispy shredded was soggy. It was a complete waste of money

Worse Chinese takeaway we have ever had. We thought we would try Choys at Bovey Tracey for a change to our usual Chinese takeaway and we wish we hadn't. We had prawn toast which was fine, we then had lemon chicken which was really tough and very bitter and we also had their oriental rice which was a lot of plain rice at the bottom of the container with very fatty duck, tough chicken and tough pork with a very small amount of bbq sauce on it. Well we ate the duck after scrapping the thick fat off of it..the chicken and pork was so tough we couldn't eat it and the rice was so dry due to lack of sauce..so we did not eat that either. The whole meal except for the prawn toast was a total disaster ...it was so bad we threw all of it away. We would never recommend this takeaway to anyone and we will never return. We would have taken it back but it was not worth the fuel to return it.

I'd give this place a zero if I could, they don't cook things fresh, hence no batter prawns but they have other prawn dishes and two times I've ordered things they got the order wrong ruining the night.

Not only is it super tasty and consistently reliable .... the staff are the best ever.

I ordered this Chinese as its in our local town. The rice was dry and lacking flavour. The bbq and sweet and sour sauce were runny and watery. In addition, we ordered chicken balls and had prawn balls given to us instead but didn’t realise this until we got home. This is the third time we have had bad food from here and won’t be trying it again. What a disappointment and waste of money.

Good quality food, but a cash-only policy during a pandemic (let alone during normal times) is unforgivable. Also, their only web presence is a Facebook page, and a pretty basic one at that, and it's not clear which version of the menu is the latest.

Dire service tonight. No following of covid rules. Allowing 6 people in at a time and loads crowded around the door and in the road. More than 30 minutes late on food that was preorded before they even opened. Barely an apology. Half the food was cooked and waiting for 10 minutes before the last item even started cooking. Food still tasted excellent but the service, timing and complete lack of compliance with covid government guidelines will make us think twice.

Choys is amazing its always been amazing. Really popular, good quality, fresh and hot.But if you go inn to order they ignore you and answer the phone sometimes two or three times which means when they finally finish on the phone they then take your order meaning you are two or three tickets behind so you wait in the shop for thirty to forty minutes while the phone orders get theirs first! So big tip phone your order in or go to chudleigh!

Can highly recommend. The food is always excellent, I drive to Choys rather than use my local takeaway. Choys is extremely popular and sometimes this involves waiting. I would rather wait for good quality than compromise with other takeaways. Always friendly and you are made to feel welcome. There is a pub next door so instead of whingeing if there is a delay pop in and have a half. Make it a positive.

Spent an adyllic week in Widdecombe with two very special ladies. By Thursday, thought we would try the local Chinese. Trying to find the menu was a mine field but we persevered and got it off Facebook. Have not written a review in a long while BUT had to for this was a real trip down memory lane for eating Chinese for me. So nice with proper pieces of meat, I had the special chow mein and just thoroughly enjoyed it. One of the best in a long while. The rest was just as delicious especially the king prawn balls with sweet and sour sauce. The list was large, and we ate like Kings for two days and even have food for a third between the three of us. Whenever in Bovey Tracey, if you want a couple of days off or even three of not cooking, and like Chinese you cannot go wrong in ordering from these people.

The only thing I would say is that the duck in plum sauce was a bit watery for us, would have liked it to be a bit thicker/ stickier. However, everything else was beautiful and our food was ready to collect on time! :)

Great quality Chinese takeaway. My parents always order from here when I'm down visiting, food has always been high quality. Reason for 4* review is the very recent (August 2024) increase in prices by up to £2 PER DISH! I've attached screenshots of the new menu. I appreciate this is a coastal town so expect to pay a little more, but almost £10 per dish is a little excessive. Have your competitors increased by the same margins? If not I feel you may end up losing some business.

Checking times. Tonight. OCT 2023 Closed for refurbishment. I have to say it's the only Local Chinese Restaurant to sit in. The other two are Take Aways. I took a Take Away home. A Beef Curry (sauce a little hot)(not your normal curry sauce, in house made.) and Plain Boiled Rice. Also Fried Noodle (thin type) and Beef (not chow mein) (there are a bits of green pepper, mushrooms, in it) also asked for Bean Sprouts with added onion, (perfect) Fried Rice and Sweet and Sour Sauce. (It had in it onions, cucumber, carrots and chucks of pineapple. Got to be made in house and fresh).

We were staying at Buckfast Abbey and as they weren't serving dinner we went for a takeaway. We ordered deep fried squid, special chow mein and satay king prawns. We asked for no MSG and the chef pointed out that the BBQ sauce in the Chow Mein had a little, which we were happy with. All the dishes were piping hot and really tasty with loads of meat and veg. A superb Chinese takeway in a place you wouldn't naturally expect one to be. Minus one star for only taking cash, no excuse not to take cards.
