Tyepyedong in Exeter

Really tasty, we had the Tyepyedong Japanese curry and Tyepyedong Donburi Zel-Chow. Both really different and interesting flavours and lots of varied meat. Restaurant is fairly small and they were short on staff so it took a while, but that is fair enough as there was a notice.

Heart warming food, that heals your soul! ❤

I got fed up waiting outside to be served. I have been a regular customer for 12 years but won't be returning Such a shame as this place used to be friendly and efficient

After 18 years and a few owner changes, we have unfortunately now had two poor experiences since the latest change in ownership. The dishes are watery and less flavoursome than before - namely the infamous Wondering Dragon dish. The prawn filo rolls are also anaemic in appearance and lack flavour. Unfortunately this is a noticeable decline in quality and will now put us off visiting after all of the many years of patronage. We did raise the complaint and received a very small discount for an otherwise inedible dish which is disappointing given how I have consistently enjoyed the dish for 18 years and have not had any complaints prior to this. It is also well overdue that they remove the Covid screens between diners as they are bulky and unsightly.

We wanted to grab a quick lunch in Exeter and wanted something ’relatively’ healthy, filling and not too expensive. We’ve been here before, and the return visit was ass good as the previous ones.

Great portion sizes and really comforting meals (:

Needed a place to eat quickly and just popped it blindly Had the set menu £10.70 and we both loved it, tasty succulent beef. Will come back when in the area Arigato

Love the food,THE CHICKEN FRIED RICE WAS AMAZING.Staff where so friendly and welcoming.Very affordable definitely coming back.

Went after work with some colleagues following a recommendation. Was a really good experience large selection of dishes to try with either options of rice or noodles. Reasonably priced.Food was served promptly and piping hot. Really enjoyed it as did my colleagues, would highly recommend and would certainly visit again.

LOVED IT ❤❤ SO GOOD AND IF YOU ASK SOMETHING THEY WILL DO IT FOR PICKY EATERS LIKE ME

Wow! The best authentic Chinese in Exeter! Food was cooked perfectly, super fresh ingredients. The Udon noodles are delicious and the Chinese Curry is full of flavour. Atmosphere was happy and relaxing, thoroughly enjoyed our date night. Will be going back for more🥰🥰

Great customer service & food, really enjoyed it thanks.

Authentic food, good service and great portion sizes.

A fabulous little place to go for lunch, the food is always excellent, staff friendly and welcoming, and quick service. I will always go here whenever I can.

I've eaten here a few times over the years. Spectacularly good food, friendly efficient service, quick turn around if you need it, very reasonable prices, functional authentic atmosphere. I'll keep coming back when I'm in town.

Brilliant prices for gorgeous tasty ramen style pan Asian noodle soups and fabulous noodle dishes with an interesting menu including things you don't find offered everywhere. The prices are very reasonable indeed and the servings are generous. Plenty of choice for delicious vegetarian items. There is a lunch menu too. The decor is bright and modern minimalist with cool art. We have been to Exeter twice and made a point of returning here after our first visit. I don't think I would come to Exeter without dining here because it's great and really good value.

Magnificent food, tasty and huge portion, good value waitress we had was attentive without being intrusive. went twice during my stay.

One of the top indie restaurants in town...highly recommended. Great food, freshly cooked and served in super quick time!

Fantastic food, good sized portions served by a remarkably hyper-efficient, kind, friendly team of staff.

Best food I’ve ever had, ordered pretty late so wasn’t expecting quality but the food tasted like it was freshly cooked, extremely good quality, very satisfied, definitely will be ordering again!

Very good, tasty and big portion, highly recommended! Everything fresh and staff very polite

Lovely street food, quick service . Worth a visit, but you will feel like you are in a school canteen. Staff very efficient

After a pack day for my husband’s birthday I thought we’d give this place a try, we extended our car parking to allow enough time to find a note on the door saying they were closed for staff training! Lots of other people turning up too. Would highly recommend a notice on your website as I had checked the opening times that afternoon. Very disappointed

One of my favourites! Their dishes are affordable and really great.

Really high standard of cuisine, with a varied and extensive menu on offer. They'll even make a dish to order if you like, mixing parts of other items on the menu. A nice touch is the standard offer to take any unfinished food away, and they bring you a box to pack it up at your table so you know it's definitely your food you're taking away.

Wholesome soup noodles. Nice set lunch with green tea. Great value. The staff have always been really pleasant and attentive. We enjoy eating here.

This is THE place for stunning, authentic Asian food. I have never had a bad meal here, the portion sizes are amazing and the price is so reasonable!

Great independent asian restaurant

Good Food and Service but £2.75 for a small glass of water is really disappointing.

Have walked many times past here - always busy. Finally had the opportunity to eat here, and so glad we did Friendly service with a smile, and great quality food to boot. There is an extensive menu to suit all tastes, and the fact they serve hot sake is a godsend. If you're looking for a place that serves a filling noodle dish at a reasonable price, then look no further than Tyepyedong.

Third time going here and each time has been brilliant. They offer an extensive menu, all of it well worth the price, as well as a quick and friendly service. This time I had the beef donburi while my friends had the chicken and beef soup. Will definitely be coming back here again.

Good value busy Asian noodle bar with a variety of bowls and quick service

December 4, 2021 When I went there that day, there were many people, it was very hot, and I was very happy😁, and this udon was delicious😋😍

Friendly, cozy, fabulous food, fast service, open to customization requests and well priced too.

Have always loved eating here. Amazing food for cheap prices.

Freshly made food with authentic Asian flavours. Great service, too, will definitely plan to come here when next visiting Exeter. Yes the seats are hard (we brought cushions!) but the atmosphere is good, relaxed and we were able to park round the back mid week. A complimentary green tea was also very pleasing with the meal.

Didn't enjoy the food at this occasion

Excellent choice on menu service and food first class portion size is good. Good value for money well recommended

from the moment we entered we were greeted with open arms, friendly customer service and super speedy assistance. the menu ranged from noodles to rice and everything in between, and we have no doubt that every dish would tickle each taste bud, leaving every customer satisfied to the full extent. the toilets were OUTSTANDING, spacious and pleasantly lit. A delightful contradiction to the mood lighting that highlighted the relaxing dining experience within the establishment. A don’t miss spot when visiting Exeter!

I have been a regular at this independent restaurant for over 10 years. It is always consistently excellent. The food is quick to arrive, always hot and fresh. Full of flavour and a good portion. I normally have the spicy garlic chicken or wandering dragon. The restaurant is always busy but the turnaround of the tables is very quick so the wait is never long. Staff are always accommodating and helpful. The lunchtime deal with drink offers excellent value for money. Recommended for all

Very nice place, staff and food perfect.

Found this place by pure incident two weeks ago and I've been back already.The food is outstanding and the portions are very generous - yummy scrummy in my tummy.The staff were very courteous and efficient and it was a very relaxed atmosphere.I would definitely recommend this place.

Really cool place, super friendly staff and great food. Can’t ask for much more than that at a restaurant, defo recommend!

Always a definite go to when in Exeter! Food is always spot on and the service is 👍

Friendly, great food and fast service. Try the tempura prawn starter. Highly recommended.

Lovely food, I always opt for the shredded Crispy chilli beef... one of the best I've had. The portion sizes are very generous, I never leave feeling hungry.

My favourite place for Beef Udon.

Just went in by chance when looking for some dinner. I went for the chicken stir fry with yakisoba noddles and was pleasantly surprised. The flavour was nice and overall tasted like a proper homemade dish, however I did find the chicken a little bit chewy. I did also find the spring rolls a bit lacklustre as they were mostly carrot inside. Overall a good experience and would consider dropping back in.

Simple place with great food and staff

A very tasty selection of food at a good price. Will happily visit again

Can't comment on the food because it was never delivered. Will comment on the disgusting service from Typedong.. The man at the restaurant "Howard" when asked if they would be stopping other deliveries requests from Just East being made said "it was not their problem" if other people did not get their ordered food too. Will never pay money to this restaurant again. I had wanted to support a local restaurant rather than a larger brand.. I now have try to claw back the money for an unfulfilled service fromt the delivery company. Merry Xmas Typedong. for your rubbish pre Xmas gift. Seriously unimpressed.

my favourite restaurant ever!!! everything is so tasty and i love that staff don’t mind me asking for little things like swapping courgette for snow peas for example, especially as i get very nervous asking. i can be quite a picky eater so if i like this restaurant i bet you will too! the staff are so friendly and welcoming and service is super fast. every meal ive had is DELICIOUS. ive had both takeout and dined in! i LOVE tyepyedong🥰

Found myself in the city centre, at lunchtime on a Sunday, hungry and with a couple of hours to kill. I love most Oriental food and decide to grab some lunch here. I had **spicy garlic chicken with rice** from their set lunch menu (they even included a soft drink) for £8.90. What absolutely superb food and, despite it being a very generous portion size - I am a big guy with a large appetite - I was full. Fantastic flavours I just didn't want it to end. Lovely attentive staff completed a perfect dining experience. I hope to return soon to try the other menu items! UPDATE: A further visit two months later, just as good. In fact, absolutely excellent again. Spicy garlic chicken thoroughly recommended.

Come here lots with my family. Always super friendly service and the food is always fresh, tasty and never greasy. Great place.

Brilliant Chinese food! Can taste a tinge of MSG but still , very authentic. I love the thick sauce of the spicy chicken fried rice. Very nice staff and boss.

Amazing food, great service. Happy tummy 😋

Tried tonight for the first time and it was great. Wagga's had a big queue so googled and came up with this place. Fast and friendly service, really tasty food and a local business....love it

Very attentive service. Loved the fried yakitori noodles, but the ramen beef was a bit bland. Prices are very reasonable!

Loved the grub as per usual awsome excellent 👌

Really lovely experience. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere was very chilled out and relaxed and a great place to have a little date. Myself and my fiancé ordered Cantonese shredded beef which came with rice, typyedong seafood tempura and yakisoba noodles with bean sprouts and it was all cooked perfectly. Thank you so much. We will be back again!

Absolute Classic... Amazing Food In This Joint ... Wow

The lunch time deal is great. Good food 😊😋

Great service fast and with a smile clean tables even with being messy food. Food was fresh and amazing the prawns are definitely a must. Would definitely recommend 👌. Huge portions for the price.

Good selection, vegan options. Lunch menu good price.

Food arrived with a smile and still hot!

Curry was very sweet. Beef fried rice, okay.

Really welcoming place. I was seated quickly. All the staff were great and the food was excellent. Would highly recommend

Our treat now and again was to visit their restaurant, the fact they have appeared on Just Eat is probably a bad thing as we may want it more. What we ordered was hot and of their normal quality, both were curry and each arrived with the rice to one side in the container, just mix it all up and you won't be disappointed. Thank you. We'll always pop in if in Exeter.

We’ve been here twice recently and loved it both times! Quality and quantity of food was very good. Positive atmosphere and very friendly and welcoming staff.

Very good Ramen Soup, generous size. We really enjoyed it!

Awesome food. Came here as our first meal in Exeter. Had the Malay stir fry and some hot sake. The service was excellent. Staff were super friendly. The price was very reasonable. And was the best stir fry I’ve had in a restaurant. Would 100% come back next time I’m in the area. Food portions were a good size as well. Eat here!

Sooooo good One of THE best dishes I had, went back the next day!!!!!!!

Great value, good food considering what you are paying and fast, efficient service.

The worst chinese food we have had!!! No taste!!

Just awful greasy stir fry with noodles cut into small pieces. Crispy shredded beef was burnt to a crisp and inedible. Would not recommend!

Delicious, fresh cooked food at an extremely reasonable price (I ordered off the lunchtime menu).

The lunch menu here is great, its about 8 or 9 quid, comes with a free soft drink. I had beef donburi, which is stir fry beef and veg in a tasty sauce on rice. I'm a healthy lad and I struggled to finish, so its a good size. Plenty of beef, excellent unique taste. This is a great offering. Good range of Asian beers also. Highly recommended.

Delicious food and great service. I had the Yasai Lact Tong, lots of heat but also great flavour, and huge portion. I would highly recommend.

On my visit to this rests, I found the food to be very sweet. It was not something I’d prefer and it was just put on a plate without much care. Was quite disappointed with the food.

food is delicious but the staff really let this place down. went in on sunday for lunch and two teenage girls were working bad mouthing people and swearing the entire time. they weren’t exactly being quiet about it either, everyone in the restaurant was clearly uncomfortable. then one of the young girl’s friends came in and she was just yapping with her friend for the rest of the time we were there, leaving the poor male staff member to do all the work. not to mention he was trying to tell her what the dish was called and she was just shouting in his face “HUH. HUH”. really not pleasant at all

Always a delightful experience and great value, have been coming for years.

Atomsphere and staff very good, very friendly. Cannot fault. Food was subpar for a restaurant of this distinction. Very Poor quality for authentic cuisine. Takeaways are far superior unfortunately.

First time and it was absolutely delicious 😋

Very happy and helpful staff food is second to none (brilliant food) free green tea with your meal . Value for money . Huge dishes and very tasty too.. Please keep your prices down though..

I went to Tyepyedong when visiting Exeter because it was recommended by a friend and I was excited that the recipe specified which dishes could be made gluten free. However, I and my friend got ill from eating here from what I suspect to be (based on symptoms and what we both ate) rancid oil. The food also didn’t taste very good and was very oily.

Agree with previous review posted today. Went based on trip advisor ratings. Service was very friendly and attentive but food was really bad. Oil overused and ‘Smokey’ old flavour. Sauce tasted like it came out of a ready made packet. Costs around £12-13 a main. Really not a good meal or value for money.

Staff were very nice. The food arrived quickly, was really good value for money (considering the large portion sizes), and it was very tasty.

Been here many times Food is always great, the food is served hot. The taste is very authentic portion sizes are good. Prices are also modest in the current climate, Thoroughly recommend

In my experience and opinion it is exactly the same as in the city buffet just paying for one meal. It was nice but won't go back again

The best Thai meal by far.....it was like we were back in Thailand, very polite girl behind the counter too

Very reasonably priced Highly efficient staff Delicious food Have popped in here a few times now on break at work following what turned out to be good advice. First time was beef something with fragrant rice, 2nd time was szechuen chicken with udon noodles and 3rd visit was beef again with noodles. Each time, service was friendly and fast, food was hot, fresh and served with a smile, price each time £8.90 including a soft drink. Would give more stars if I could

Nice Asian food with sizeable menu.

Stopped by for lunch at work, really friendly service and a delicious meal. Great value for money too!

They bring in staff that they don't speak english. If you ask for SPECIAL REQUIRMENTS you won't get it! I order something sometimes and get something else.. the cheff is new and he dosen't know how to cook.. the old ones were great!

Really good food. Lovely service and good range of food choices and drink. Highly recommend

Have been told to try this place. A great example of don't judge a book by its cover. From the outside nothing to rave about however I was in a party of three and we all ordered different things and all are food was extremely tasty and full of flavour. We ordered sides that were also very nice. I would recommend you book as within 5 minutes of opening there wasn't a seat to sit on and a que of people waiting for a table.

Ordered a takeaway for pancake duck rolls and beef fried rice. The food was prepared very fast and it was absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely order more.

Lovely food and helpful staff. Service is quick and efficient. We have loved coming here for years.
