Avoid this place at ALL COSTS Cheap ingredients rice is months old and dry and they are usually closed when they say they are open. It’s very expensive for basic cheap food and dirty shop and staff are living in the kitchen Avoid this place and go down the road much better and better ingredients £19 for chicken fried rice and chips and sauce is a tad much cans are expensive too

The person was eating their meal while I came in. I'd expected them to empty their mouth of food before taking my order, but NO. I'd ordered sweet and sour prawn balls. I promise you the sauce was GLOWING orange! And I ordered Hot n Sour Soup. It was WHITE,Insipid, and gross. I took it all back at 22.10pm. Sadly they close at 22.00pm so they were out of there! I seriously doubt if anyone in that "restaurant " has ever BEEN to China! Gross experience. Honestly, take your pennies elsewhere. Truly abhorrent experience!

This was awful. Living within a minutes walk of the takeaway I expected my meal to be hot when I arrived home. Nope, tepid to cold. Egg fried rice was browny, white and flavourless. The roast duck was nice though a very small portion size as was the dribble of cold plum sauce it sat in. Tried it once, not again.

Called for delivery, they said they couldn't deliver as I didn't have a house number (other places have had no issue with this and found us easily). I ended up ordering it for pickup being told it will take 10 minutes, I arrived 15 minutes later and still had to sit and wait. The food was fatty, greasy and bland. One of the things I ordered was bang bang chicken, I received what appeared to be boiled chicken drowned in some kind sauce? The chicken chowmein was also drowned in sauce and had minimal noodles. The duck fried rice was disgusting, the duck mostly consisted of fat, they also somehow managed to mess up the rice (there was also some bone). Absolutely disgusting excuse of a chinese. Christmas Eve ruined!

The worst Chinese I have ever eaten. Very disappointed. No flavour in the food whatsoever, chips were worst than you could cook at home. I would not recommend this place.

A great little traditional takeaway at the top of Causeway Head which is reasonably priced and the food of good quantity. Orders by phone and delivery is available too.

Absolutely great experience. Very friendly staff, great food and excellent price. Can't remember the last time I enjoyed a take away as much as this and portion sizes are out of this world!

No flavour, greasy, really awful. I knew I was in for a bog standard chinese, but wow, this was the worst thing I've eaten in years!

This place serves food that is so bland, and so greasy. I was also sick an hour after eating. The worst ever!

SOOO disappointing. I bought a bunch of food there for my family on a visit down to Penzance last weekend and I have never had more bland and oily Chinese ever in England. Got multiple different style of noodles and all tasted like oil? They all tasted the same!!? Tried to smother in sweet and sour but not even that bought out ANY kind of flavour. Even the sweet chilli beef tasted watered and bland. Chinese is always our go to, and we indulge in the different flavour often so we know a good take away when we eat one, this place definitely should do better

Very watery bland Chinese. Got the szechuan prawns and it was very very wet and didn't have any szechuan peppers. Tried some other dishes from my friends too and they were universally bland with rubbery meat Staff were very friendly

Not a bad takeaway by any means but the food won't blow your mind but equally shouldn't disappoint. Decent standard for after the pub I'd say.

This is the best Chinese takeout in south Cornwall, they make their own satay sauce from scratch not from a jar. Quite well priced, And quality is always very consistent.

Lovely food, moderate price. Car parking is very close by. It's a pay and display car park tho. Modern Chinese is about 1min walk.

I ordered a veggie spring roll which contained a lot of mixed meat. Very disappointed as a vegan to have first wasted meat and secondly to have almost eaten it.. and I was quite upset I didn't get my spring roll.

Live in Birmingham and visited here on holiday. Shredded chicken was very different to ours up in the Midlands but lovely. Definitely worth a go

Food always ready very quickly. I don't have the most varied of choices and stick to the same things most times. But I can say the dishes I have are always very well cooked and tasty. The roast Duck Fried rice is always one of the dishes I go for and it is fantastic everytime!

Singularly the most revolting Chinese we have ever had! The beef in the beef in black bean sauce had a very rubbery texture and quite revolting! The spring rolls were huge but contained only bean sprouts and were without taste. The sauces where unreal in colour, synthetic, and unappetising. The batter on chicken balls was very thick. There was more fat on the spare ribs than meat. Needless we did not enjoy our meal.....most of it went into the waste bin. A waste of money!

Well the story begins and ends with : 'they ran out of fish' - you couldn't make it up.... and looking at the other reviews on here - and especially the photographs of the food - we done very well to miss this trash.

Where to start?! Terrible quality food , Hash browns were rock hard and cheap rubbish, sausages tasted like 2% pork, 10 potatoes on a large breakfast. Eggs tasted off 🤢 Waste of £16.20. My misses waffle was cold the guy said it was weird to order what she ordered. That put us off him straight away and both guys seemed miserable and definitely not welcoming. No wonder the place was empty. Sticky tables guys, when you're not busy that's the time to have a good clean up. Would never eat here again if they paid me.

The Devonport is know for its amazing food (and beautiful backdrop), and goodness it did not disappoint. We were there for Mother’s Day, there was 6 of us. I had the mussels with gorgeous thick cut chips. My brother and mum had the Skate special, which was a huge portion of fish with caper butter and chips. It was outstanding! My step mum had the Haddock and chips and she said it was the best ‘fish and chips - fish’ she’s ever had! She is not easily pleased. My husband had the paella and he was so impressed, the fish was so fresh and juicy. Fish is their show stopper, so I’d always try and order some kind of fish/seafood. But overall, amazing food and fantastic hospitality. Social shout-out to the Manager who was very knowledgable of the wine and port that The Devonport had available. Will be coming back more and more - I feel very lucky to live locally. Thanks guys!

I have to admit that I am not the person that comments on anything and everything, nor do I ever right a review of my experience. If I am unsatisfied with the experience, I just won't return again. But ... I have been seeing the Development of this establishment for that past 20 years and treated myself quite often to a night or two in any of the corner or best suites ( highly recommend those ) and enjoyed the ambiance and service this hotel had to offer. Our experience: Arrival to the hotel : We planned to have drinks prior to our meal. Found the bar area as busy as usual. With no free seats in sight, I ask the Brasserie manager if we could order drinks in the main lounge, whereas we been told that there normally is service but he has no clue what they doing today. Not answer I was hoping for. The entrance to the main lounge also been blocked off for some reason. Luckily the wait at bar was sufficient enough to pass the time for a table to become vacant. In previous visits, a relaxed table service was offered but not this time for some reason . Guess it’s an informal 5 star service.. , had to ask for bar menus as neither been on the bar or tables to see what’s on offer. ( also no usual complimentary nuts that used to be offered ) Restaurant We arrived early to our Booking at the samphire and were delighted to be able to be seated, unfortunately without any menus. It took about 10-15 min of us staring holes into the warm air, when I lost my patients and had to get up from the table to ask for menus at the entrance of the Restaurant. Yet again it took quite a while for us to order drinks and food as it seemed to be a chaotic service with everyone doing everything and no restaurant Manager nor head waiter in sight ( please note.. all evening ) . The lack of attention to detail was incredible .. table settings with knives to left and forks to right on every table .. just wow - giggle Food and drinks order done. ( ordered a glass of white wine with my mains, which never arrived ).. Drinks arrived what seamed ages. Overheard table next to us complaining about the slow service too, which been given a small apology but no solution to increase the speed of service ( yet again a lack of management ) Noticed the young waiter being unfamiliar on how to correctly present a bottle of wine and opening it, which I thought should be a training standard for a 5 star establishment. not only did he seem untrained, he also dried his hands in a used napkin left on the table next to him where diners just left. The pork belly starter , was below luke warm which was shame as its been rather tasty. I guess if a portion of this size is sitting on a kitchen pass for mere 3 min, it naturally will loose its core temperature, suggestion.. Next time use a cloche! I wanted to point this out to the service but yet again no manager or headwaiter to be seen and the waiters seem too busy to be bothered. Once they did ask if everything is alright, but by that time we finished what we had on the plate ( which is not a lot if you are hungry ) Unfortunately the main course of the hen and the monk fish not been any better and yet again being luke warm. Dessert of the frangipane tart and pineapple been ok, but yet again no attention to detail, as the dessert been bought out without cutlery being replenished prior. Ordered coffee to be served in the lounge, which arrived with no sugar or spoon and had to be asked for separately. When I paid my bill, I mentioned that the wine I ordered with my main course never arrived. No apology was offered.. A "informal fine Dining " experience. 95% informal - 5 % fine Dining. :-( Over the past 20 years I always chose the Headland hotel for its perfection, attention to detail and impeccable service, this time it's not delivered to its promise which is a shame cause that's what I will remember.. Coming from a 4 to a 5 star .. I expected more ( go back to 4 stars !!! You been better then
