The order was ready quickly, as you would expect with a Chinese Takeaway. The food was very nice and just what we needed after a long day exploring. Especially the chicken balls, which were not greasy at all (like they can be). Overall, very happy.

I ordered spicy beef with pepper. After a long day with the kids I was so hungry. Even that I can't find myself to eat this. I tried and i didn't taste any beef..and who deep fry beef like this anyway?? It's so dry and tasteless and I swear they probably used just flour instead of beef. It's the worst Chinese food I've had and I don't normally write any bad review because I dont want to hurt small businesses. But this is just a rip off

I think that's it's the best Chinese takeaway in Ilfracombe. The food is cooked in front of you. It's very clean and the staff and chefs are always very pleasant. Highly recommended.

Shocking food. Fried rice that tasted boiled, microwave chop suey with spam cubes . Soggy pork balls and don’t get me started on the greasy spring roll. Absolutely the worst Chinese I have ever eaten.

This take-away accepts only cash . Very disappointed with food. My duck was served with white onion instead of spring onion. Onion and cucumber were big chunks.Pancakes were shredded with holes.I couldn’t make even one proper pancake.Pork balls were soaked in oil.Absolutely disgusting 🤢. Wouldn’t recommend this take away.I didn’t enjoy it at all.

We love our Takeaway here in Ilfracombe. We have our favourites, but the range on their menu is great. They are very popular and of course that can come with a waiting time, but we've never been disappointed and the food has never come cold. They cater for our dietary needs, plus my experience of ordering from multiple places throughout the UK has always placed here as a preferred takeaway.

How this got a 4 star rating I do not know. I was really looking forward to a Chinese meal and was extremely disappointed. This is the worst Chinese food I have ever had. Never had spam in Chinese food before and could sole your shoes with the beef. It was terrible. Spring rolls were practically empty and crab soup made with crab stick. Will never go back to this takeaway or recommend. I only put one star because it was the only way I could write the review. What waste of £31

My experience? Honestly, they already spoke badly to me about the food but I decided to try it, I only ordered the crispy beef...🤢The sauce compared to other Chinese restaurants or takeaways....horrible, normally that sauce is sweet But it was sour I had to add two pieces of sugar to remove the bitterness it had, Anyway .No more

Wasn't sure about this place from reading reviews but we are down here on holiday and my daughter wanted Chinese for her birthday tea. Had sweet and sour chicken, egg fried rice, banana fritters. Hot, plentiful and tasty. Ordered in the shop and food ready in 15mins (6pm on Tues eve). Very happy daughter.

after seeing some bad reviews we were almost put off trying this place but i’m glad we went ahead and ordered, the hot and sour soup was incredible and really spicy 👌🏻 the chicken fried rice was also incredible and the curry sauce was the icing on the cake 🤤 one of the best chinese takeaways we have ever had, i would give this place 10 stars if i could. the lady that took our order on the phone and the man i collected my food off when i got there were both really nice, happy and friendly 👍🏻👍🏻

The service here is disgraceful. Drove a 30 minute round trip to collect a large order for a family of 9. Got back and we were missing a sweet and sour chicken balls from our order. We rang back to be told that we hadn’t ordered them. When then giving them a name for the order they agreed that we had in fact ordered them and proceeded to tell us that they “didn’t know what we had done with them”. They refused to refund us by bank transfer or to deliver the missing item. The girl on the phone seemed to think it was ok as we had all eaten. She believed that when we got home and realised it was missing we should have driven back with all the food to prove the item was missing. Eventually I was given the option to collect the missing item however by this time I wasn’t prepared to do another 30 minute trip to collect them as it hadn’t been our mistake. When I showed my frustration I was told to “calm down” and that I was “ a very rude lady”. I asked to speak to a manager to be told there wasn’t one. Will not be using them again.

Chips either cooked 3 hrs before pick up or microwaved very dry. Shame we waited an hour and were really disappointed just bland chow mein sloppy. Wouldn't order again. Shame

Ordered a Chinese for 5 people whilst on holiday in watermouth rang and asked about delivery to be told yes by taxi and it would be £4 to which I agreed normally I would have fetched it but had had a drink asked for the total which came to £37 +4. When it arrived the driver charged us £47.50 when serving up the meal we had ordered chicken fried rice which was literally chicken and rice nothing else. Special fried rice wasn't much better just rice and mixed meat. I ordered chicken with black pepper and it was spicy chicken nuggets with peppers no sauce to go with my not so fried rice, the other 2 meals were OK and that's all they were OK. To any other holiday makers seeking a Chinese Avoid this place rip off.

Not the greatest quality food, overpriced and not very well prepared. Made a simple order to a disinterested and sullen worker and they managed to get 2 of the 5 dishes completely wrong.. By the time we were home and had realised the problem we were so hungry we just ate it instead of returning it. Will not be going back

The satay chicken was pretty tasty which is about the only good thing I can say about this place. The veg chow mein was pretty vegless and the crispy shredded beef was more like claggy lumps of batter?? in a sauce that had the same effect on the mouth as sticking your tongue on a 9v battery.
