KaHo in Newark and Sherwood

There was a time when we would always get our Chinese take out from KaHo but I’m afraid for the price there are better places to get food from. Their Singapore noodles are lovely but ribs are not the best. They are a little more expensive than others in the area sadly

Nice clean place and polite staff One of our chicken dishes didn’t taste like chicken however, the other dishes were good, but expensive. Overall ok but probably wouldn’t go again

The staff are so friendly and helpful. Wonderful service! We've had food from Kaho multiple times now and it is was lovely, fresh and authentic. Would highly recommend.

We have just had our takeaway from KAHO and are so disappointed 😞 we have up until today been really happy with our meal and although more expensive been happy with the quality. Sadly not tonight. Our meal was dry we had salt and pepper ribs (always enjoyed in the past) but at £11+ were not good tonight, We had duck which we had to leave and a special udon noodle dish which was not up to standard - sad !!

Have used the KaHo since it opened. The food is consistently good and the service likewise. The parking is rather tight but plenty of on road parking available.

A very good take away, good quality food and the place has ample parking to front area. It can get busy on a Saturday so it is worth while phoning ahead with your order

Why are all takeaways expensive in this area?? Special curry £8.90 , when other area are around 6-7 quid with rice

We tried this place whilst at the family’s and it was outstanding. One of the best Chinese food we’ve ever tasted. We’ll never use another now. Restaurant standards in takeout food. Absolutely amazing.

Such a disappointment. I spent £65 on what was to have been a celebration birthday meal for two. I used to rate the Ka Ho, but I was very unimpressed and much of what I bought ended up being thrown away. You can’t fault their portion sizes, but the quality of cooking was appalling. Everything is covered in one gloopy sauce or another, heavily sweetened, even where the menu suggests no sauce. It’s difficult for takeaway to be otherwise, but everything was a mush, not a single crisp vegetable, just one texture throughout. ‘Plain’ noodles were covered in soy sauce or other. What a waste of beef filet to be so over cooked. ‘Peking style’ pork cutlets had nothing in common with the spicy food one might find in Beijing. I’m afraid that, despite its smart appearance, the Ka Ho has become just another tired ‘Cantonese style’ takeaway.

Had a takeaway treat for my birthday. Simply delicious! (Can't say more than that but site minimum characters is 100!)

A great choice for a Chinese meal. Their COVID policy is very secure and their food is lovely! I had the crispy shredded beef which was very tasty. I would return.

I chose this place because of the positive reviews but I have mixed feelings about the food. My daughter chose sweet and sour prawns Hong Kong style which she said was lovely. I chose king prawn chow mien which was very greasy and lacking in flavour. The prawns were enormous and meaty but had some sort of floury covering on them which I didn’t like at all. So, a disappointment for me and a thumbs up from my daughter.

So happy Ka Ho is open again during coronavius outbreak. Best Chinese in the area by far. Great food and very friendly staff.

Ordered takeaway when visiting family and impressed by the place - very stylish and comfortable. Nice touch to be able to get a drink whilst waiting and munch on the prawn crackers too.Food was great too - varied in terms of dishes ordered and everyone enjoyed their food from here.Down side was no prawn crackers added as courtesy order addition....Will come back again when visiting no doubt.....would recommend using here to others - even better if you can turn up and order so you can relax with a beer and sit in one of the comfy sofas to watch their tv whilst they cook your takeaway too!

Love the food, 20ml round trip and worth it, always fresh and tasty, when I’ve had guests they’ve always been impressed, recommended

A wonderful find on my trip to Newark antique fair. All food freshly cooked and you can have a quick drink and prawn cracker while waiting for your meal. I had their mixed sharing starter which was amazing, streets apart from your normal Chinese takeaway!

We ate here recently and whilst it might be ok compared to other local take aways, honestly it’s just not good when you’ve eaten from good Chinese restaurants.The Cantonese duck was dry as an old boot cooked in just soy sauce, which I couldn’t believe.The aromatic duck was so dry we had one pancake and left the rest.Fortune prawns were extremely gluey and glupy with a sharp vinegary taste.It’s just not quality food. Ok if you’re starving and you don’t really care you just want quick food, but even then it’s very pricey.We won’t be having again. Just took a couple pics of the duck as we’ve thrown the other meals... the rest isn’t any more appetising to look at or eat.

I but food from this very good take away for 6 years now, almost always no.43. But tonight was a challenge! The chillies factor went up 300%! Not so enjoyable.

Average food for an above average price. Wouldn’t bother going again as can get same standard cheaper and delivered to my door.

We have had a takeaway from KaHo on a number of occasions and I have to agree with others the food was delicious although compared to other very good local Chinese takeaways the portion size was smaller. Also compared to other local takeaways the price is considerably higher which means you're getting less food for the extra price you pay.The service was good and quick with free prawn crackers to eat whilst you wait for your food. Which is a positive if you order in the building but if you ring ahead and collect then you don't have time to eat them and it seems no matter how much you spend you don't get free prawn crackers to take away and eat like you do at other places.The food was good but the negitives on price and portion size compared to other local takeaways out way the positives.

Very much enjoyed our takeaway. Cantonese style food. Fairly predictable choices, but takeaway has its limitations. Impressed by the quantities - the boxes packed full with the main ingredient very much in abundance, whatever the choice. Quality evident in the ‘specials’. Chose four dishes and rice for two of us - far too much. I wish there was an option for smaller portions.

The welcome is brilliant and the atmosphere for a take away is one of the best. The food is not good. It is expected that most of the dishes are pre-prepared in someway but this must be taken to the limit as there is no hint of freshly cooked food. I hate to say it but most of the supermarkets can do better for flavor and authenticity. We won't be going back... I actually can cook better food myself and this underlines that it is worth taking the time. It is such a shame.

This is a fantastic takeaway, never knew they was there. Best Chinese in Newark, hands down. Well worth the effort, and they got a proper bar.

First time here and the food was amazing. We normally go to bamboo garden in southwell but this was 20 times better exceeding expectations

Great Chinese takeaway food. Shame it's only takeaway but would recommend it. Also importantly well packaged to get it home.

Busy decorating and no time to cook, turn to Ka Ho! Our meal tonight was just simply outstanding from ordering at 5 to collection at 5.30. No Chinese in Newark can touch this place. Highly recommended

Second time to KaHo. Fantastic food modern spotless reception. With out doubt the best Cantonese food ive had were staying in Baldertone for work . Wonder if they like sea air and would move to sunny Scarborough. Go and see for yourself. What a Gem

I regularly have takeaways from Kaho and I am never disappointed. It is certainly the best Chinese takeaway in the area. Food is always ready to collect on time and is always hot and tasty. I tried a king prawn dish last time (wish I could remember the name) and it was delicious! Can’t wait to return again. Thank you!

Friendly service from phone call to collection.Smart reception with excellent staff.Often busy because the food is fresh and delicious but consistent.I don’t know of any other take away locally that competes to such a high standard.Always a treat.Thank you Happy Chinese New Year.

After many years visiting once or twice a month, the food is superb, fresh, quick and always tasty.

Having lived in Newark for nearly 20 years and not found a decent Chinese/Cantonese takeaway we were recommended KaHo by a friend. It did not disappoint. Restaurant quality takeaway. Such a shame they aren’t actually a restaurant to be able to get everything fresh from the kitchen rather than after the 15 minute car drive but still totally worth it. If you even think it’s a bit expensive, it really isn’t for the quality.

The best Chinese take away I've ever tasted. We use them regularly now. Everything tastes fresh and cooked to order. It's worth the extra price.

Never really been one for Chinese food as I never could find anything to float my boat.

Really pleased with the tofu (bean curd) satay dish we ordered as well as the rest of the take away. Be warned though there is a lot of sauce with their dishes.

Best takeaway in the area. Delicious food. I wish they did deliveries. It's beat to ring order through in advance as they are always very busy

1st time we ordered from this place as we didn't know they did gluten free and oh wow we really have been missing out! We can only use one word and that's amazing to describe our take away and we will be going back on a regular basis :-)))

Having only moved to the area 2 days prior we were not yet ready for cooking! A friend recommended KaHo to us and I have to agree that this is one of the best Chinese takeaway restaurants I have been to. The inside looks like...

Buena comida y excelente servicio, hemos probado unos cuantos platos diferentes y todo el mundo era genial. No vayas a ningún otro sitio para mi llevar

Sólo tenía la primera sin gluten llevar como mi esposa sufre de intolerancia al gluten y he de decir que una fantástica cena degustación 👍 hank que

When family visit and want Chinese food, we always go to KaHo. Great menu and good value . The quality has always been excellent.

KaHo are great for gluten-free Chinese food. I was sure I'd never be able to have fried rice again (and yes, you can make your own but sometimes you don't want to cook), but they've got a dedicated GF menu and really know their stuff--for example, once my dad was ordering for everyone, specified that the prawn crackers had to be gluten-free, and was told they are naturally. Knowledge like that is really important to me as a Coeliac, because it proves they know what they're talking about and they're not just spouting hot air.Because the food is so fresh and delicious, it's probably the 'healthiest' Chinese I've had. Although it's still not a diet food.

This is possibly the poshest Chinese around! Lovely decor inside, with leather sofas, lots of magazines to read whilst waiting and complimentary prawn crackers to nibble on!!The staff are friendly and the menu extensive. In this case posh doesn't mean expensive though!

This is a first for me, a review of a Chinese take-away place but then this is a take-away with a difference!As neither of us had been well, decided to forego the effort and strain of cooking and go for a take-away. As it had been years since we had eaten Chinese, thought that we should have a look at what Newark had to offer in this genre and were surprised to discover one that seemed to be a cut above the rest - KaHo! Found their website easily on the Internet and after having made our choices, phoned up to order. The first surprise was the excellent English of the guy that took the call and as it turned out, he was obviously a British born Chinese lad. Thirty seconds minutes later drove down London Road and pulled into the large parking area of KaHo and it's set back facade. Looked nice but even better when you got inside! A large black glossy counter worthy of a top class hotel and low tables with big, soft easy chairs in a spacious reception/waiting area. About four couples sat around waiting for their orders and having drinks while they did so! Bowls of complimentary rice crackers for you to dip into as you did so. Our order was ready as we had phoned ahead but it seemed that to wait was no ordeal. What did we have? Well the menu is quite extensive with a specials menu as well. Also a set menu selection and a vegetarian one to choose from. Lots to choose from - chicken, lamb, prawns, beef etc in a variety of ways as well as fillet steak, crab and more! Spoiled for choice. We chose the sweet and sour monkfish, broccoli in garlic sauce, chicken in ginger and spring onion and also lamb in black pepper sauce. What did we think of it all? Well the star was the broccoli. Brilliant taste with a good crunch and vibrant green. The lamb was tender and not a bit tough as we feared it might be. The chicken was OK but the monkfish was a bit of a disappointment, being a bit soggy and bland with the sweet and sour sauce too sweet and containing some huge chunks of pineapple.On the whole, as takeaways go it was good and a cut above the norm, but not to be compared with a good Chinese restaurant. Probably the best Chinese takeaway we have ever eaten though. Not cheap as you could see from our bill, £29 with no rice or noodles(always do this at home), but I can see us eating from there again.

One of the tastiest Chinese take aways in newark. Slightly more expensive but worth it for the quality

If uou want the very best chineese in the whole of nottinghamshire then uou must visit this take away restraunt.It has class of its own friendly and a very well looked after waiting area. Be warned this place is very popular.

The staff at this takeaway are amazing. You can sit and have a drink whilst waiting for your food to be freshly prepared and cooked. The atmosphere is very good and who wouldn't want to sit on comfy leather sofas with an ice cold beer whilst nibbling on some freshly cooked complimentary prawn crackers. I can't tell you what my favourite dish is as there are so many but all I will say is that this is by far the best Chinese takeaway in Nottinghamshire. You have to keep going back to appreciate the fabulous flavours and awesome food. My sister can't eat food with containing MSG's so when she comes up to Balderton this is the first place that she goes. The quality of food is to such a high standard there is only one other place in town that is maybe as good as this and that is the New King Wah. Love it!!!!

Absolutely LOVE this take away; the food is always good, no matter what we've ordered, fast service and the staff are always lovely. It's our cheat night go-to

Very friendly with great efficient service. Food is very good. Suggest orders placed in advance over the phone as it gets very busy over the weekend.

Since being diagnosed as "ceoliac" I've been revisiting restaurants/ takeaways to find where I can easily eat and at KaHo there is a separate menu for "gluten free" choices. I am trying to go through the menu, but I have my favourites. Great food, every time!

Excellent, very trad Chinese style take out, nicely done.Easy fixed menu for 2, 4 etc.Always clean, always friendly always quick.I think you can get Chinese in Newark cheaper, but I'm not so sure you can get as nice.

The wait time is very lengthy. We waited almost an hour for our take out. If I were using regularly I would definitely phone through my order.Nearly everything was delicious though, especially the sweet and sour shrimp and duck and ginger with one exception. The BBQ ribs were disgusting! The worst I have ever had anywhere. Just dry bits of meat hanging off piles of bony gristle, most unappetisingI would definitely eat here again but just not the ribs...

Spotless clean, friendly happy staff. Lots of free prawn crackersAlcohol and soft drinks whilst you waitFreshly cooked and great tasting food. Been several times

This is my favourite Chinese take away. A great choice and great tasting food. It is also a great experience going to order and collect in a relaxing atmosphere.

If you want a fabulous take away meal don't bother to look about or use silly apps. Just go here. It's fab Great staffFood is brilliant Celiac menu. At last a Chinese that can make really good gluten free food. WOWThis is the best place

Friends and I decided to have a takeaway from a local Chinese with a great reputation. In the first instance the food was freshly prepared requiring a 30 - 40 minute wait during which time you are invited to buy a drink at a slightly inflated price. There were bowls of prawn crackers available for those waiting though this doesn't help with enjoying your meal when you get to serve it up. The food was okay, tasteless in some respects (especially the prawn dishes), but my biggest bug bear was the temperature of the food...it was largely tepid despite being freshly prepared. The other local chinese takeaway is not as aesthetic but serves hotter, tastier dishes.

Went on a busy Saturday night after Notts County show. Lovely welcome by the staff. Fantastic range of food. Sat an enjoyed a drink and the free prawn crackers on a lovley comfy sofa with fabulous magazines whilst our meal was cooked to order.When we got it home - WOW! One of the best Chinese takeaways we have ever had. So much meat. Fantastic tastes.It may not be the cheapest, but my goodness the quality is superb. Like everything in life you get what you pay for!!

Made a large order for 9 people, everything was there and cooked perfectly. They took on special orders without hesitation and were very welcoming. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

Extremley modern and swish, fernominal food by far the best in miles. Enjoy a drink, and prawn crackers on the house whilst you wait for your outstanding Chinese.

After attempting to find a Chinese takeaway in the North Kesteven area of Lincoln that is remotely edible a friend suggested this Chinese takeaway in Balderton, Newark (not to far away).So happy this was suggested to me.My wife and I have tried lots of different things on the menu and everything has been to perfection.Well worth the commute, any Chinese food lover really needs to give it a try.Awesome.

Superb food, price, welcome, service....exemplary, cannot fault it!Wish Eddie would open a restaurant in Newark.

Visited again today to find that the food and service is still top notch. I have never had better Chinese food, having eaten it all over the UK. The King Prawn dishes are stunning. I recommend KaHo unreservedly. Their prices are higher than most takeaways, but the difference is money well spent. Due to its popularity, I suggest that you order by phone, as there can be a delay in the delivery of your order.

The food is always amazing and never have I been disappointed and the staff while your waiting are very friendly and make you feel welcome

Eddie and his family & staff always deliver superb food and customer service at this very upmarket Chinese takeaway. The food is always utterly delicious!

Had two meals from here whilst on short break excellent food and service. Good idea with having a bar whilst waiting for food

To give you some idea how good the food is from KaHo, we live in a village with a chinese takeaway, but drive a round trip of 22 miles to Newark to get the best chinese food that we have ever tasted. Every dish is superb, I strongly recommend that you try it. KaHo is a little bit more expensive that other takeaways, but the food is really worth the extra cost.

I've heard many great reviews, however until you try it for yourself you will never realise how good this place is. The whole experience from waiting in the lounge whilst you wait for your food and the food is amazing. Great value and not that much more expensive from alternatives. Would never go elsewhere for a Chinese again!

Never had a bad meal from here. The food is totally delicious and well worth going to pick up.We have introduced several friends to Ka-Ho and we would never go elsewhere.

Quite simply one of the very best Chinese takeaways I have ever found. All standard dishes available plus some eye catching Vietnamese offerings that are quite authentic (says someone who is Vietnamese)

Really its like night and day to compare this to old school american style chinese take out. KaHo is more like our US fine-dining chinese restaurants, with lovely cuts of meat and fish [instead of scary mystery meat] and creative and flavorful varieties i've not seen before in america. Eddie, the owner, is great and accommodating. Place is full of fun locals...have a drink while you wait and make some new friends:)All-Star dishes: salt and pepper mixed seafood with singapore noodles, ginger and spring onion beef, duck pancakes, and monkfish with black bean sauce

Have had a couple of take always from here recently. Both really good. Wouldn't normally review a take away, but this is worth it.

We ordered a Chinese meal from here on Valentine's day. The wait for the food was over two hours, despite being told that it was only a 45 minute wait. We were starving when we finally got our meal at 9.30, only to discover that they had sent the wrong one! So we had to return and swop it for the correct one. A little more honesty about the length of the wait would have been appreciated.However, the food was very good when we finally got it. There were bean curd dishes on the menu, something that is very rare in my experience. There was also a few lamb dishes, again white unusual from a Chinese takeaway. We would go there again, but not on Valentine's night!!

What an amazing experience from picking up the phone to collection. This is HOW a take away should be run. Treated like royalty upon entering, seated and able to read quality magazines or watch tv on plasma screens, drinks are given along with the tastiest prawn crackers and other nibbles. Once the food is ready it is served in quality containers and made from the freshest ingredients with no congealed mess to be found - NO MSG - YOU MUST GET A TAKE AWAY FROM HERE - you will not regret it- I now live 15 miles away however it is a must!! Travel is worth it! Shame they don't expand in other areas but i imagine diluting it will ruin it.ENJOY!!! :-) I know you will!

Best takeaway ever; decor, comfortable seating, tv, very clean, complimentary prawn crackers, licensed. Oh, the food is delicious! Equally good is the service. We visit infrequently as we live 90 miles away, but the owner always recognises us and treats us as if we in just yesterday. We only buy from Ka Ho when visiting Newark.

The best Chinese take- away in Newark. I have ordered from here about six times, always delighted with the result! They go the extra mile with service and taste - the premises are very inviting and modern, you will not be disappointed.
