Spent £50+. chicken wings no flavour and slimy, chow mein was mush and had no flavour chips were edible but clearly needed the oil changing fried rice was microwaved or warmed up fish tasted like a plastic bag so do not recommend to anyone hopefully we don’t get ill tonight

As we have just moved into the area we thought we would try this chinese. Not only did they forget to give us the fried rice we ordered and paid for, but the food was vile. I can honestly say it was the worst takeaway we have ever had. I would like to add to this review that the owner liaised with my husband an apologies immensely for our poor experience. He offered us a full refund. I would like to thank the owner very much 😊 and accept the apology.

We have eaten from this take away a number of times. Not the best take away in the world but ok, greasy but ok BUT tonight I had a special chow mein and first of all it seemed to have no flavour but. Half way through I could smell cigarette butts and we don't smoke so not us and I smelt the chow mein and it absolutely stank of ash tray and then all I could taste was cigarette butts! I couldn't wait to brush my teeth as my drink wasn't taking the taste away. Usually ok but very disappointed as I have been looking forward to it as don't have money to waste:(

First time of going this evening . It will be the last . Curry sauce like jelly and chips were hard and lots of little bits that could break a tooth . My partners house special lacked flavour and minimal meat . Sadly we threw it away after trying to eat what we could as travelled 10 miles to get it . Usually go to chef lin in Torrington but gave hot food a try . I don't like giving bad reviews but I believe in being honest .

Hi everyone, I’m just wondering if anybody has had a delivery from here, and if so, what is the minimum order amount? and can you pay for the food in cash, when it is delivered, or do you have to pay by are when ordering. It would be so helpful if all of this info was listed on a website, along with a chippy full menu and separate full Chinese menu, also with the minimum order amount for delivery. When was this taken over by the new owners, and what is new?

The setting is vile, parts of the counter are falling apart, your feet stick to the floor, it smells like gone off food in there. The people behind the counter are following orders from a bossy ‘manager’ that patronises them in front of customers. Behind the curtain, you can just see dirt and grime. The food is greasy and tasteless. The curry sauce is watery and the fish looks over cooked. Overall, really vile. I have serious concerns.

We have come here over the years and found the hygiene has gone downhill steeply. It is dirty, filthy and this in a fast food shop! Your shoes stick to the black carpets, the boxes in food is home delivered are stacked in a corner, all damaged insite and dirty. Need I go on more? Behind the counter there was a unit containing batter gor the fish, which has staines running down that must have been there too long, discoloured. The interior is in need of a hygienic update. Ducktape on the counter is holding things together. Never again will we go there!!!!

Couldn't tell what half the meat was and also tasted like It had been left on side for a day. Chow mein was literally noodles covered in oil. Rice was more edible until i came across what i hoped to be plastic, but was very similarly shaped to a finger nail🤮egg shell scattered throughout rice too.

The worse food iv ever had.. It took over 2 hours to be delivered. The staff was rude and wouldnt take any responsibllity for anything and the delivery guy was disgraceful the way he spoke to my elderly Nana who was annoyed at the long wait .. The food Was Stone cold where it had obviously been sat around( had a 7 year old son in tears because his chicken balls didn't come in order and his BBQ sauce was split open so he was left with plain beef rice!! After a 2 hour wait I could have took it all back but with everyone being hungry and having a newborn baby in the house we had to crack on. We have most of it left as everyine was very fed up.. £50 down the drain.We have gone from using once a month to never using again!!

Have been having my take-away meals from New Hot Food for years, but over the last few months the quality of their food has deteriorated. Last week I ordered Lemon Chicken. The chicken was old, overcooked, and hard. The batter was disgusting - it was stale, hard and bitter.That's enough! I'll be finding somewhere else for my take-aways, there's plenty of competition in Okehampton

Having just travelled from London and arriving late, we decided not to cook at our accomodation and get a take away. Okehampton not being a large town and not having a great choice of take aways, we chose to eat from Hot Food.BIG mistake! It was without doubt the worst Chinese meal we have ever had!! Cold, over cooked, greasy, bland and tasteless. There are no words really available to describe how bad it was and most of it went into the bin, as we could not face the 17 mile trip back from our accomodation to complain.It looks grubby outside, it is grubby inside and the bloke behind the counter could seriously do with a wash. Lastly its over priced by a mile for what we got.In short we should have known better. A piece of advice.. JUST DONT BOTHER!!

We've been ordering food from here for 5 years and even dinned in the upstairs restaurant occasionally, but tonight was the 3rd time our order was delayed & incorrect.

Crispy chilly chicken with egg fried rice - delicious 🤤 not hot though I’d say it’s on a sweeter and sour side which is what I was hoping for
