After sampling many of the local Chinese take always over the years and my last go to going downhill dramatically, I have now become a regular customer of the ka Ming. I have had several meals every month for over 2 years now and never had a bad one yet. All our orders are always correct and everything is delivered piping hot and in good time. My family now travel over from Paignton because it’s so much better than their local ones. It’s constantly busy which I think is proof that others are also enjoying their food as much as I am, but despite how busy they get, the service is always polite and friendly. I particularly enjoy their pork and pineapple and the pork curry. The pork is always so delicious. Everything I’ve tried has been really lovely with great portion sizes. I’m very surprised that they have any negative reviews on here but I guess it’s all down to personal taste. I would say, if you’re unsure, at least try it the once, which is what I did 2 years ago and I’m so glad I did :-)

The vegetable spring rolls were the flattest I have ever had, the actual contents of the "rolls" were almost negligible, literally must have been just a few grams of squidge. Really just awful. Chips were ok.

Disappointing! Ordered chicken and mushroom chow mien. Well I managed to find two halves of mushroom! The dish was dry and unexciting. Won’t be ordering that again and unlikely to return for a while.

It seems like on here people only pick on the bad bits and never mention the best bits of Ka-Ming, not everyone/everywhere get things perfect all the time. This is honestly the best Chinese meal I have ever had!! I phoned up and placed my order they said it could be ready for collection in 5-10 minutes, I picked it up in 10 minutes and I got home and the food was still hot! The staff are so polite and have great customer service skills. 100% recommend, no matter of the other reviews on here. Thank you Ka-ming!

When Ka Ming was actually owned by Ka Ming himself, this was our go to Chinese. Over the years it’s had a few changes in ownership and honestly has just gotten worse and worse. Tonight we had to choose somewhere else as our usual was closed. We thought we’d give Ka Ming another shot and see how they were doing. Big regret. The noodles in the chow mein were soggy and overcooked, the sauces in the dishes were thin and all of them tasted the same - of pineapple. I love that fruit but honestly everything at the Chinese shouldn’t taste of it! Even the chicken balls batter was overcooked. It was just all round very average, I wouldn’t bother nor recommend spending your hard earnt money at Ka Ming, need to up your game!

I'm writing this because I feel this place deserves a much better rating on here, and are getting quite a hard time from some. The first two reviews I've read are basically saying that they are NORMALLY really good but they've decided to publish a review based on the one negative experience, which is typical of these review sites, i.e. ten good experiences, no review ... one bad, straight to TripAdvisor, guns blazing! Then there's the "everything was horrible" review which I never trust - probably just the competition playing dirty - listing off every item on the order as bland, mushy, cold, you name it. Well, we started using Ka-Ming after some mediocre results from our other regulars in Newton, and I can honestly say that every single experience has been wonderful. Delicious food, e.g. the lemon chicken is actually drowning in sauce rather than you getting a small tub to pour over, and the driver (always friendly) has always arrived much earlier than the estimated time. Yes, that includes last night, which was at peak time. Always friendly on the phone - unlike another place I reviewed who basically answered the phone with "We're not taking anymore orders tonight" and that was that - and I can only reiterate that the food is always hot, fresh-tasting, succulent (especially the duck) and tasty. Last night was the ONLY time (out of about 6-7 purchases) that they forgot something (the rice) which wasn't worth ringing up for, seeing we always get a free bag of prawn crackers and so it's not like we lost out too much. Frustrating, though. They nearly had a full house! I never understand how hard it is to count some boxes. But hey, I've never known a takeaway in my life that hasn't made this mistake at least once, be it a dip or an entire meal. The ONLY real negative, if I were to advise them on where to improve, is the starter menu. It really needs expanding, guys! Four of the seven overall options are soup, and it's just a real shame given how great the rest of the menu (and overall service) is. What about chicken satay skewers, which the girlfriend loves and misses? Prawn balls? Mixed hor d'oeuvres? Scallops? Spring rolls? But that's the only negative. I'm really impressed otherwise. They'll be hearing from me a lot more times, I imagine!

Having used Kaming many times over the years, the last 2 times have been disgusting. We had our normal chicken chow mien, beef curry egg fried rice. Prawn crackers and veggie spring rolls. Chicken in the chow mien was awful! Hard to cut and definitely not edible, the chips where disgusting they was so crispy and hardly any potato in them. Deffo gone down hill over the past few months, and will NOT be visiting again !!

Este tiene que ser uno de los peores jamás comprada junto con jardín chino china. Me dieron mi comida entregado hoy 15 de julio de 2017 y no fue realmente lo que llamaría caliente. De todos modos al ser un pollo, pero era de 85% de verduras y frutos secos no tenía sabor, fueron para un plato picante pero he tenido más caliente comidas tesco barato. Tenía 3 bocado y lo tiró lejos fue asqueroso nunca ir allí de nuevo.

Normalmente el fin de llevar, pero ahora cierra los lunes, así que probé este. Las comidas eran muy sabrosas, algunas muy diferentes de los platos habituales, y no salada, lo que a veces puede ser un problema con platos chinos. Sólo podemos hablar ya que encontrar y la comida que he tenido hasta ahora ha sido muy bueno; un gran volver si nuestro favorito para llevar no está disponible. Quizás un poco caro comparado con otros (tienen ponen sus precios), pero no pedir de nuevo aquí.

I have reviewed here before and gave it 5 stars. For food quality I stand by 5 stars but after being a loyal customer since they opened 10+ years ago, I have reached the end of my tether with regard to home delivery. Three consecutive times my order for delivery has been wrong. Each time it has been the wrong main meaks arrive. It then takes a very complicated phone call and another wait (30 mins to get the right meal) to enjoy their food. It is difficult to get to Ka Ming as we live out if the town but surely delivery of a simple order for two, should not be difficult. One or even two times is just about OK, but three is dreadful. Looking at other places now.

I have used the Ka Ming on several occasions and have never been disappointed. The wide range of delicious food makes it difficult to choose but it will always be well prepared, piping hot, large quantities, enough for everyone to have a taste of something different and always served with a smile. The staff have a knack of remembering you from past visits and always make you feel welcome, often give you a bag of prawn crackers free and if they say 15 minutes, they mean it. The food is there when you are. All in all, one of the best take aways in Newton Abbot

Used KaMing for first time, and really found it excellent. We called in our order and collected. Was ready on time. Lovely chow mein, didn't rate the spare ribs much - BBQ sauce wasn't very tasty. Curry and rice were good and the prawn crackers were best we've tasted. Will use again, but will warm up when we get home as didn't stay hot. We are only 15 mins away but could have been hotter. They do deliveries, but charge £5. Friendly service and not too bad value for good food.

The chicken balls were burnt, the dipping sauce was very vinegary, the special fried rice was not fresh and looked and smelt dodgy, and the duck gave my mother in law bad guts, terrible!

With each bite we felt a small part of our souls disintegrating. there was no sign of those exciting fortune cookies that some chinese restaurants include, although im sure if there was it would have read something like 'you sure you wanna eat that?'. overall, we were the fools. it was utterly terrib

We used to love the occasional treat from here and very much enjoyed it but unfortunately the last curry we had was a special curry and it smelt like burnt plastic when we opened it. Then I put it in my mouth and literally gagged I believe it could have been gone off prawn or beef . When I called to warn them it maybe dodgy the staff offered us £5 off next order but due to this I am to worried to try it again minus this unfortunate time it had been great in the past just sorry this put me off.
