Food from here is always fantastic. Fresh, hot and full of flavour. Staff are always super friendly and helpful and should you opt for home delivery it always arrives quickly. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Never used them b4 but thought we'd give them ago, I have dairy issues, so usually have a foo yung dish, it was horrible I swear the eggs weren't fresh & as I usually have mushroom foo yung their were hardly any mushrooms in it.

Hands down one of the best Chinese meals I've ever eaten! Everything was fresh and tasty, not greasy or overcooked. We also got a lot of food for the money too, highly recommended!

Pretty good Chinese to be fair Spring rolls are massive, the menu seems the same as most other Chinese takeaways, but the quality of food seems better than most. I would recommend if you fancy a Chinese takeaway

First visit and last, food was ok but not worth the money. Extremely disappointed, we checked reviews before visiting and went by them. Nearly all of the food went in the bin. Makes you think who does the reviews.

We have ordered from Lucky Star several times and each time the food has been absolutely delicious. I would go so far to say one of the best Chinese take away we have eaten. Also, they deliver which is an advantage as a lot of their competitors won’t. Paul, the delivery driver is very friendly and the food was piping hot even though he had a fare way to come. Would definitely recommend Lucky Star for quality, service and value.

The staff was very friendly and humble especially their youngest worker named crankal who guided me through my order. I opened the door to a juicy delicious Chinese food and a gift card as I was theyre 1000th customer and they hit a milestone. I am so impressed and will definitely order again soon.

FOOD POISONING! Usually wouldn’t leave a bad review however me and my partner have been incredibly ill after having a takeaway from Luck Star. Can only presume it was from one of the chicken dishes as those that didn’t eat chicken weren’t affected. 👎👎👎

Ordered scheduled delivery for 8.50, rang at 9.10 to see if they had any update on if it was on its way .. unfortunately the first guy didn’t understand too much so passed it over to a young girl who was very rude and didn’t help at all just said it was on its way didn’t apologise about it being 20 minutes late and not even left yet also hang up the phone as she didn’t want to deal with it, I would suggest getting staff trained for issues you may retain more customers, a polite phone call to say we are experiencing unexpected delayed goes a long way 👍🏻

Terrible the curry was vile no taste to it at all and it was a green yellow not the golden yellow it should be, and my good god who taught them to make fried rice, I've never seen a oriental person make fried rice with so much dark soy sauce, the rice looked like chocolate rice it was that dark, and well the sweet and sour Cantonese style or Hong Kong style as its known here well it was a very light pink syrup glup that had no flavour at all. HOWEVER they can cook chips just and the best part of the meal was the prawn crackers. I have eaten in China Town in London and Birmingham regularly, if I took that takeaway to there and asked the locals what they thought, I'd be laughed out of the area. Save your money and either find somewhere else or go to a shop and get the ingredients to make your own meal, torquay and exeter have lots of oriental shops to get stuff from. I can't believe people say this is a good place, you've obviously never eaten proper Chinese food then.

2020: Average everything but poor service. Always too busy to answer phone or speak when they do. Food ok quality. Nice at times and reasonable price though small portions. There are no good Chinese in NA but this is a better one. 2021 Update: cold over cooked food at a high price. Price in person different than phone! 1 meal was inedible and clearly reheated old meat. Disgusting. No point complaining as they don't care. Avoid.

If you want a rushed greasy chinese, that you have to drive to pick up the rest of it when they incorrectly take the order and forget parts. You can to call them politely to correct the error just to be hung up on. Then this is the bad Chinese for you. Lessons in customer service needed and stop rushing the food and it might be worth the money. Wont use again.

My wife and I are on holiday just outside of Newton Abbott, we fancied a chinese takeaway. We searched on the iternet and found the Lucky Star. Lucky us, from the phone call to order a very polite gentleman answered and was extremely helpful. To the young lad that delivered our order, social distancing was obeyed. Then the food, to give a 5 star rating is not enough, it should be a a 10 star rating because you guys deserve it. Certainly one of the best takeaways we have had in a very long time. Thank you to all your staff, hope to order again before we go home. Best regards. Sandra n Ian Keep up the good work.

If you want all of the dishes you order to taste EXACTLY the same despite being wildly different and you have a real thing for large chunks of carrot in EVERY dish. This is the place for you. If on the other hand you want tasty well cooked food go elsewhere.
