Wouldn’t deliver to us even tho we are less than 3 miles away even tho your web site says you do so you lost out on a customer who wanted to order for 5 people for delivery with a order well over £200 …. UPDATE YOUR WEB SITE

Wow,never thought we would be writing this,we have supported Ho Ho since it opened and I can honestly say last night we had the worst take-away ever.Rice was over fried,barbecue ribs sauce had a horrid taste,pancake rolls tasted of disinfectant and the Chicken balls were stodgy.We all had bad stomach aches afterwards and that was with throwing mot of it away.Come on guys we have been very loyal to you even recommending you to family and friends.Literally £50 down the drain.

Came here tonight for mine and my partners dinner. I'll get the bad out of the way first, while the shop is nice, their fish tank that's put on the wall is very very dirty, could do with a nice clean. There was a small blonde hair in my boyfriends rice, (we both have dark hair), and the roast chicken was very dry. For the highest rated Chinese in Basildon, I expected a little bit better Not for the goods. The rice, aside from the hair, was very nice, they didn't mess up any of my order and removed the prawns like I requested, the lady who took my order was kind and understanding, the wait wasn't long, and its cheaper then other Chineses in the area

Visited the ho ho Chinese takeaway 6th October . After ordering the food . Went home and the food was very disappointing. Chicken balls were soft not crispy the duck was dry and very hard . The sweet and sour sauce was very red and tasted different. The pork dish was very dry and meat very tough . I found out it has been taken over recently but is very disappointing. Won’t be going back . Which is a shame as I’ve been going there for about 10 years

We have used the Ho Ho for years, and have never had a bad dish. Fast forward to today. The food was truly awful 😖. Soggy chicken balls, dried out chips which had clearly been reheated several times, and a chow mein completely devoid of sauce. We don't often order Chinese takeaway because of the expense and consider it a real treat 😋. We were so disappointed, we threw most of it in the bin. Won't be in a hurry to order from them in the future.

Best Chinese we have ever had!! Not bad price for food either. The food is always hot and never lets you down. I do know some people do complain about the waiting time, but that is due to how busy they are and I’m happy to wait as I know my food will be piping hot and every single time we have ordered it is amazing. I rather wait a hour+ depending on what day of the week it is (as I know weekends are very busy, but still worth the wait!!) then 45 mins from other takeaways that you can not eat and tastes nasty and cold food. Couldn’t recommend more

Amazing food, is a little different from other Chinese takeaways, but I personally think HoHo’s has far much more taste. The bbq sauce is amazing and no other Chinese place I’ve eaten can beat HoHo’s. The prawn toast is different to others but amazing and will not order prawn toast from anywhere else. Brilliant customer service. Owners are also lovely people. Our food has always been piping hot still aswell when we get home and dish up. They do get extremely busy but to me this is due to how good their food is. I rather wait for decent food rather then get it quickly and throw it in the bin, if ever I’ve had a problem staff and owner are always happy to try and correct this where many many takeaways around Basildon tell you that you are wrong. Amazing thank you

I read the HoHos terrible reviews but foolishly decided to ignore them ( rather than driving a few more minutes for a better place ) and I paid the price . They even fu*ked up a simple dish like chicken balls and chips . It was actually inedible. Avoid . ( even tho the owners were so nice )

First time we ordered from here won't be doing so again.Ordered Kung po chicken ,chicken chow mein and sweet and sour chicken balls . Kung po chicken wasn't as we know it, firstly it came with cashew nuts in it which we don't like, plus other bits in there we didn't know what they were so they went out with the cashews.It didn't taste like Kung Po it was more like crispy coated chicken and a weird taste nothing spicy about it not nice. Chow mein ok but really dry had a tang to it and chicken balls I never knew they could get so much batter round a bit of chicken not good. Would not use again or recommend .

Delivery | Dinner | £20–30 I’ve always been a very loyal customer and loved and bought my Chinese from the Ho Ho Basildon because it’s always been such amazing food but recently it’s gone down hill then this evening it was not right at all it had such a weird taste as if something was on the turn can’t really describe the taste we couldn’t eat it and put it in the bin, SO disappointed such a shame the food isn't nearly as great as it use to be, time to try somewhere else me thinks.

Still hot temperature and just very tasty and fresh.

Never been there before (our local Chinese takeaway has gone downhill lately so we thought we'd try somewhere new) but it was lovely! Gorgeous looking shop for a takeaway, polite and relatively fast service given how snowed under they were with phone orders, and most importantly the food (house special chow mein with prawn balls for me) was BEAUTIFUL! We'll be back, definitely.

Awful service!! We booked our order in advance, earlier in the week so that we could make sure that we secured our slot. It had been booked for 7.30 and was booked by the manager/owner of the shop. Arrived for the time that was agreed to find that not only had it not been cooked (the order was still sitting there on the counter), they couldnt tell us when it would be done. No excuse for this at all, regardless if it is Christmas eve, thats exactly why we prebooked! Left with hungry children, disgusting. WIll never be buying from them again.

Always order from Hoho as my husband loves their Beef Curry but sad to say this was our last order Chow Mein was obviously cooked in dirty oil as had a foul taste, Beef Curry was chewy and quite awful, Salt and Chilli squid took some chewing and was flavourless, Salt and Chilli chips were soggy so this is where we part ways. No more Hoho’s in this house.

Really disappointed been using Ho Ho for years, but over the last six months orders wrong, things missing, you call they say get discount on next order but when you reorder they have not logged the discount against my number. Tonight is the last time I’ll use this takeaway, items missing again, curry sauce, bbq sauce like water, chow mien dry as if it’s been reheated several times. Chips must of been reheated several times as absolutely dry. Absolutely a waste of money.

It's a ok place for a takeaway, but sadly quality of food has gone down hill since Hon sold the place. They use cheap pre packed food now so if you have a allergy or don't like certain things they can not remove it from the food like they use too. Another great takeaway that's took a dive for the worst under new ownership. Seriously try Wok & Roll laindon near toomey petrol station???

I ordered yesterday 4/4 after reading all the positive reviews.... What a mistake I made! They opened at 5pm, I placed order at 5:13pm told 45mins for delivery; not a problem at all as their card machine wasn't working and it allowed us to get cash etc here's where it goes wrong!!!! Food was delivered before 5:30pm it was not piping hot, some chips were still frozen, rice an noodles were so compact they looked like they had been checked in a microwave, crispy beef was not crispy, curry sauce smelt amazing but had a weird sweetness almost as though it was going off! You don't need to be a chef to be able to tell the difference between reheated, over cooked, lukewarm food!!!! How could our order have been prepared, cooked and delivered in less than 17minutes?! I will not be ordering from here ever again.

Ordered three dishes. Got prawn crackers as a freebie. Very nice. Thanks. Two of four things that didn't go straight into the bin. Chicken chow mien is hard to screw up. Fine in this instance. Three stars out of five. Almost tasteless because too little salt. Two other dishes went straight in the bin. Spicy stir fried beef. Full of sugar like a beef churro with too much salt. Can you imagine? Couldn't eat it. Two orders of Hot and sour soup. Also went into the bin, not the sink. Too thick. I could eat the soup with a fork. Surely something wrong there. Also way too salty and dessert-sweet. Awful. My first time at Ho-Ho. Never going there again. Quite surprised at the overwhelmingly positive ratings.
