We have had a few takeaways from here recently and all have been consistently good. Food is piping hot and very tasty

Seen a lot of negative reviews but always like to give a place a chance. Ordered salt and pepper chicken, they gave us prawn and there was no flavour to it at all. The chicken fried rice was horrible and stodgy and the curry sauce was more like a fruit sauce. My chow mein was ok but an overall bad experience. Ashame as we love chinese food, but probably the worst chinese we have tried.

Myself and my husband ordered a takeaway a couple of weeks ago and were horrified with the food quality and taste. I ordered the Chicken Chow Mein and my husband had the Roast Pork Chinese Style. As we share the chinese (have half each), we were horrified that it tasted so salty as if someone had emptied a container full of salt into it and the fried rice was dry. The chicken in the chow mein was dried out and had a strange taste to it and the four pieces of very small pork squares was very hard, chewy and dry and the dish consisted mostly of grey beanshoots, a lot of watery substance and no taste. We decided to call The Golden Ball to complain and was told to bring the food back. Worse than the food was the rudeness of the owner of the shop who said that half the food was missing (yes it was spat into the bin several times during eating) and she didn't want to give us our money back. I insisted that the food was not fit for consumption and as there were members of the public waiting for their orders, she decided to refund our money. She practically slammed the money into our hands and said 'next time you won't get your money back'. My reply was 'don't worry, we won't be coming here again'. No apology from the owner, just rudeness. We have had a takeaway from here a couple of times, each time the food has been greasy or dry and seems to always have a strange taste, especially the chicken. We definately won't be ordering from The Golden Bowl again and being local, I have told my friends about the above issues and it seems they all agree that it's not the best Chinese Takeaway and advised on another local takeaway they all go to. We've also noticed that they seem to always add on an extra 10p on the price even though we have an up to date menu.

On holiday,.ordered 3 meals. Ordered 2 x no138 off their menu, which is roast duck and roast pork fried rice in BBQ sauce. And 1 x chicken and pork rice. Got back ro caravan to find had 2 portion of bean sprouts with duck and pork. No fried rice. No bbq sauce. Chicken and rice was with fried rice as ordered. Too late to return as after long day traveling everyone just wanted to eat. The meat was ALL horrible. Pork was like chewing leather shoe soles and the 2 small pieces of 'duck' I could find were pure fat and tasteless. Wife's chicken and pork was the exact same. BBQ Sauce wasn't present that we could tell on any of the 3 meals. Just loads of oil. Look at my reviews, think worst I've ever left was 3 stars. Incorrect 2 out of 3 meals and Awful food for all 3. We binned majority of all 3 and ate our movie munchies for dinner instead.

Ordered a big meal for the family as a treat at the end of our holiday. Simply the worst take away I have ever had of any kind. Not just the worst Chinese, but the worst food I have ever spent money on. Chicken satay were tough and dry, the sauce was a dull beige. Singapore rice noodles tasted like someone had deconstructed a shredded wheat and marinated it down the back of a deep fat fryer. Prawn toasts appeared to be more like chicken toast. Spring rolls were frozen supermarket standard. Chicken balls were greasy and just tasted of oil. Spare ribs were dry, lemon chicken was full of pineapple. Not much chicken in the chicken Chinese style. Egg and special fried rice were okay, I didn’t try the curry but those that did ate it. Everything was bland and oddly discoloured. Will never go back on future holidays.

We are on holiday and fancied treating our family. We looked at the menu online and chose our dishes. My husband went to order and pay to discover that although the website had prices listed, they had put all the prices up and the meal cost £11 more than it was advertised as. I'm sure it is against the law to advertise one price and charge another. However, the food was generally good. Flavours were nice. The prawn ball batter was a bit soggy and the meat was dry in the mixed roast chicken and pork and the chicken skewers though. I wouldn't say the meal was good enough to charge £63.

Normally we make a trip here on the way back from blue anchor. Ordered fish and chips, what a waste of hard-earned money. The fish wasn't even fresh it was the frozen battered fish that you would buy in a box from any supermarket. My young son and I have been up since the early hours with sickness and diarrhoea. Will not be returning to this place ever again 😡

If you ask for salt and pepper chips, you get chips with onion and carrot ( not salt and pepper) even though you have asked for no onion in the rest of your order. Owners didn't really care about that. Even though it was only £3.80 out of a £60 order. They refused a refund saying I should have known. The food there has always been good but they seem to lack on customer service if you aren't satisfied with your order. Would reccomend unless you have food allergies .

Ordered off the menu on the website, ignore the prices as they are nothing like what you get charged. Food is average at best, had Salt & Pepper chicken and Capitol Ribs, couldn't really tell the difference in flavour, bland just about covers it. Friend had a noodle dish which was nice but overall thoroughly underwhelming and felt slightly ripped off. Will not be returning!!

Absolutely fantastic! We regularly order a set of meals as a family from The Golden Bowl. My favorite, Chicken Kung Po, ordered tonight was great: A good amount of chicken but also LOTS of fresh vegetables in a really tasty, slightly spicy, sauce. Customer service is basic, but who cares - it is very efficient and they are spending my money on good ingredients and kitchen staff, which is what counts!

Food was tasty enough and was ready very quickly (within 10 minutes). Does make you wonder how made to order everything is when it's that quick though? The issue we had was we got no rice even though we read our order out/confirmed it 3 times so when we phoned and questioned this the lady on the phone said we didn't say rice when we ordered and even after we said we read the order out, including rice, 3 times she just said well 'when I read out your order I didn't say rice' There was no apology for the misunderstanding which was a shame. Who has a Chinese without rice?! Anyway food was tasty enough but customer service wasn't great.

We have just bought a static caravan nearby and last week we had a takeaway from the Golden Bowl which we really enjoyed. So when we returned to our van this week we thought we would have another but this time it was not good at all. Had we been served last nights meal last week we would not have returned and we won’t again. Must have had a different chef but whatever made the difference it has most certainly put us off. Will not be returning and cannot recommend it.

We phoned in our order - for 4 people, so there was quite a list ! The girl repeated it to make sure she had got it right, and we were told it would be ready in half an hour. We went along in half an hour and there was a BIG box all ready, with all our food in it, with 2 bags of free Prawn Crackers. The food was GORGEOUS, very hot and loads of it - not that we'd ordered a lot, but the portions were BIG ! A great start to our holiday - THANK YOU - WELL DONE.

Firstly, this place does not accept cards 🤯 Secondly I waited almost half hour for 1x chicken chow mein. While waiting I had to laugh as almost every customer who came in had placed orders over the phone and it was wrong. I asked what's taking so long, the response was that they are busy, which was a shock to me as there were about 3 people waiting and maybe 6 came in while I was waiting... Didn't seem too busy to me!

Golden Bowl used to be a nice takeaway. Many years ago. Not any more. Tonight we had won ton which should have been little parcels of filo with minced meat filling. They actually served us folded up pieces of deep fried filo pastry. When I rang and complained, I was told the minced chicken was in the pastry so you can’t tell it’s there. The chicken satay was so dry it must have been reheated countless times. The chow mein had no flavour whatsoever and the owner said this was because they had to cater for the older population of Watchet!!! The prawn toast were what you buy in a supermarket. Having moved away and sampled really nice, fantastic quality takeaway food, I decided that I would complain when I was served terrible food. Golden Bowl, your food is terrible. Have some respect for your customers!

Food was mediocre and was telephone ordered from menu on website, but nowhere did anyone say "cash only" causing a complete "pain in the backside" trying to get cash to settle up on arrival at the take away.

We ordered a Chinese for 2 of us last night. It was a £30 order so not massive. We ring at 6.30 and we’re told 40 minutes which wasn’t a issue. We got there for 7.15, food was not ready and there was 17 others waiting! One of which had said she had been sat there over a hour! We were repeatedly told 10 minuteS. It was only when I asked for my money back our food appeared. We left there at 7.50!! I wish I could say it was worth the wait but it was tasteless and the Chinese chicken was so hard you couldn’t even eat it! Never known a Chinese like it. Definitely won’t ever go back.

It was a Sunday and with not many restaurants open in the area and with local Pubs not serving Food on a Sunday we were stymied. So in an act of desperation we decided to order from The Golden Bowl. Before doing this I asked myself what am I doing and looked for my Scores on the Doors Restaurant hygiene App which stated that The Golden Bowl had a Food Hygiene Rating of 4. It was also good value which seems an odd way for me to condone my decision to go ahead and quality trumps price any day. They also don’t take credit cards so cash only. In a growing cashless society this might not be the smartest move in times ahead. We collected the Food and start to dish it out. The e-numbers were there in plain view in all dishes (e-numbers are Additives for colours, preservatives, antioxidants, sweeteners, emulsifiers, stabilisers, thickeners and other types of additives). Plus my gut instinct told me to re-seal the lids and put in the food bin for disposal. But we didn’t. The Crispy Shredded Chilli Beef was tasteless and I dreaded thinking what was in it. The Singapore Rice had bits of meat in it which looked inedible. Just looking at it put me off eating it. There was more but you get the gist. It really was a poor choice. However I ate enough to wake up at 5.00pm with a mild fever and feeling nauseous. As stated earlier I should have trusted my gut instinct.

Got my order wrong and the food was shocking, crispy chilli beef had literally zero beef inside and not a chilli in site just onions carrots, a sweet sauce, with what was best described as a chewy finger nail bit of not so crispy beef!... Duck had clearly been microwaved and was chewy.. Satay sauce was even poor tasting, absolute waste of just just under £40. Very disappointed, would certainly not recommend. P.S I could complain more but I'm sure I've said enough.

So after ordering my food and driving home I discovered that my order was even after I checked the order back with the person on the counter. so I drove back to the shop after talking to the manager on the phone (don't now why I bothered he couldn't care less) so changed the food drove home (didn't think to check it) and guess what it's wrong again!!!once maybe twice is just taking the mick.So rang back to speak to them couldn't care less and wanted me to drive back again didn't even speak to the manager cos clearly he didn't care. The food is in the bin as it was cold after all the messing around and it didn't look great anyway to be honest, this used to a good take away clearly gone to the dogs.I will not be returning nor will I recommend purely based on the shocking lack of care & customer service as I didn't eat the food.

Visited today for the first time, will never order food from here again! Food was freezing cold after waiting over 40 minutes for a takeaway collection. When we got back we found hair in the food which couldnt be eaten due to this so it was a waste of money. Ordered barbeque ribs and there was no bbq on them they was freezing cold! Salt and chilli chips had no taste to them and food was way over priced for what you got will sadly not be returning again.

Food here was more expensive than Chinese takeaways in central London and about 10% the quality. Even the rice tasted bad, no idea what they cook it in to give it such a bad taste. Curry sauce wasn’t home made like most Chinese places, just a jarred sauce thrown on top of tough beef which didn’t carry any of the flavour.Don’t bother if you’re used to having a good quality Chinese!

Went here out of desperation at the last minute because we'd planned really badly for the day in question. Both me and my wife are quite particular about our Chinese and the reception area here did not exactly fill me with confidence but shut my mouth, this was really very pleasant, not perfect, the kung po chicken was a bit dayglow for my liking but really very nice.

Went in and ordered (Friday teatime) and it wasn't long to wait for our food. Lovely chatty young man at the counter. We had sweet and sour pork balls and mushroom chow mein. The pork balls were to die for, gorgeous taste and quality meat. The chow mein was lovely but was a wee bit dry (we're used to it coming with a bit of juicy stuff at the bottom). The prawn crackers we had with it were out of this world. NB We are those sort of people who are quite hard to please

This Chinese was absolutely awful,firstly they got our order totally wrong four out of the five dishes we ordered were incorrect.We immediately phoned them and went through the order they appoligised half heartedly and said if we brought the food back they would sort it out but it was quite far away and we had guests,for dinner We were all extremely hungry and its a far distance to go back so we ate the correct dishes and then on our way out we popped back into the Chinese with the remaining incorrect dishes to a very rude and unhelpful reception there was no offer of our money back OR our correct dishes.The food we did actually taste was watery and taste less and we will NEVER use this disgusting Chinese again

Our local Chinese takeaway, nice staff, reasonable prices and tasty food. Not our favourite Chinese takeaway but still very good.

This takeaway has been in Watchet for decades. The food is OK; nothing special but adequate and average. It's a little over priced but as there are few alternatives, you'll have little choice. For some reason, this takeaway has never made deliveries and I think they're missing a great business opportunity to be honest.

Tried to call to order for a solid hour. Drove down to order instead to find that they are closed despite their website and Google saying that are open today!!! Ended up going to Alcombe tandoori!! Fully recommend them!
