Spur of the moment choice; got special fried rice (excellent), beef chow mein (hot, tasty and loads of beef!!), pork balls (not an ounce of fat and big 'n tasty) and some mini spring rolls & prawn crackers... waiting time - hardly any; everything still hot by the time I got home and 3 of us were unable to finish the quantity! The staff were friendly and helpful, so a very good experience and a most tasty meal! Well done and keep up the high standard which you display, despite being a small, family-run takeaway business.

Grabbed a chow mein and curry for a lunchtime treat. Curry very odd, powdery flavour and red!! Chicken quality very poor. Will not be going back

Lived in Exeter for a while and tried various Chinese takeaways, and this is by far the best. The staff are very friendly and the food is great. Generous portions, quick cooking, always hot and tasty. Their salt & pepper squid is a highlight. They are cash only, but that is clear and signposted - Only an idiot would complain about this.

Debido al cierre reciente, no hemos tenido comida para llevar en más de 10 semanas. Anoche pedí pollo al curry frito, que estaba muy bueno. Sin embargo, el rollo de panqueques que tomé como entrante fue excepcional: grande, ligero por fuera y una gran mezcla por dentro. Definitivamente recomendaría probar uno de estos, que es casi una comida en sí mismo.

Realmente impresionado con la comida que recolectamos hoy. Encantador personal de recepción, 15 minutos realmente rápidos para recoger y excelente comida sabrosa. Pedimos a Wan's hace unos años y no fue muy bueno, es mucho mejor ahora, ¡la mejor comida china para llevar que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo!Nuestro habitual Golden Wok está cerrado en este momento debido al virus y diríamos que el de Wan es un poco más sabroso y tiene una buena relación calidad-precio. Pedimos 6 x platos principales a 28, ¡decente en todos lados! ¡Definitivamente lo recomendaría!

He estado comprando comida para llevar de Wans de vez en cuando durante más de 30 años. He probado otros pero siempre vuelvo ya que este es, sin duda, el mejor. Muy recomendable. Todo está cocinado a la perfección y el personal es encantador. Sería incluso mejor si ofrecieran la entrega, pero vale la pena salir por Wan's.

Oh, querido. ¡Evita esto como la peste! SECO, SIN SABOR, SIN TEMPORADA, Rice tenía al menos 2 días de edad. Las bolas de pollo no comestibles, masticables, las galletas de gambas eran casi invisibles, eran tan delgadas, que la llamada comida no era FRESCA. Simplemente insípido, sin sabor en absoluto. Todo era bolsas congeladas de basura barata recalentadas. El peor chino que he tenido. Desperdicio total de dinero.Apenas pagan impuestos y apuestan todo el dinero en las casas de apuestas y el casino.Mi próxima carta es a los estándares comerciales.No estoy siendo duro. ¡Estoy siendo honesto!

Llamamos y ordenamos que nuestros chinos se llevaran. No tienen una máquina de tarjetas aquí, así que asegúrese de llevar dinero en efectivo. Tuvimos que esperar un poco para nuestra comida a pesar de que estaba bastante ordenada, pero nos dieron latas de coca cola y galletas de gambas. La comida fue maravillosa como siempre.

Esta solía ser nuestra comida para llevar favorita, pero en los últimos tiempos no fue tan buena. Decidí intentarlo de nuevo y descubrí que el curry era mejor que otros platos que hemos tenido en las últimas semanas. Servido por una señorita muy amable. Volveré otra vez para probar otro plato.

Llamé y pre ordené una comida para tres personas en las WAN el sábado por la noche. Cuando llegué, el estacionamiento era una pesadilla afuera, había clientes carros por todas partes. Una vez dentro, tuve que esperar unos cinco minutos para que me sirvieran y luego esperé otros diez minutos para obtener la comida que había pedido. Era buena comida, pero no tan buena como solía ser, ¡la carne crujiente no era demasiado crujiente! De lo contrario bien.

We phoned through your order as usual, " collect in 20min". We arrived at just after 8 to collect and walked in to total chaos !!! There where already at least 15 disgruntled in the shop. They had RUN OUT OF RICE !!!!! Wwhhhhhaaaaaat. I counted 4 refunds and 3 walk out, we did persevere and got our rice from another nearby take away. I have to say thought the quality of the dishes is not there any more, it is so sad to see our favourite Chinese hit this all time low

No ha sido por un tiempo y no disfrutar mucho. Costillas y arroz frito especial bien, pero curry demasiado líquido y no estoy seguro de si han cambiado su proveedor de carne, ya que parecía diferente. Las patatas fritas pueden haber sido cocinado en el almuerzo y recooked por la noche. Fuimos en el horrible sabor bin. Qué pena.

He estado yendo a este chino durante muchos años y la comida siempre ha sido fantástico. Ayer cuando les pedí a ellos, me di cuenta de que tenía el personal de cocina y cuando llegué a casa lo que más me decepcionó fue para darse cuenta de que había cambiado las recetas. La comida era muy sosa y mucho menos carne.

Not as good as usual, service good, asking for garlic normally means that the food is cooked with the herb, last night we had raw garlic diced and thrown on top of the dishes. Very lack of any juices or sauce.

I am happy to say that, following a dip in form at the beginning of the year, Mr Wan is back ... my favourite Chinese take-away for the last thirty years is back in form. Good food, fast service, pleasant staff, reasonable prices ... everything you expect from a Chinese take-away.

I have been buying Chinese meals from this take-away since they started in the mid 80s in Chudleigh. They moved up to Exeter later. It has been my reference in the field for about 30 years ... but something has changed. I am disappointed. The food is not grossly bad or inedible ... it has just lost its character and become bland and uninspiring. I actually had to force myself to finish my chicken curry and fried rice, c'mon, this is unheard of. Prices are still good and you'll be able to eat for less than you would at Mc Donald's so ultimately it's worthwhile going in if you want to fill your wellies. But I'll not be going there by choice in the future. I hope they get back on the rails pretty quickly, otherwise they will have lost an old customer.

This Chinese take away is consistently excellent. The staff are polite and accommodating and the service is quick. You are able to see the food being cooked whilst you wait which is always a good thing. The menu is extensive and very good value. Would not go any where else for a chinese take away!

I have been having the 'meal for two' (with spare ribs) over at least the last 27 years (yes REALLY). It is consistently good with more than enough for two people. The spare ribs are sweet and succulent, the prawns are huge, the Special Fried Rice is bursting out of its packaging and amazing, the Sweet and Sour chicken balls are huge and tasty with the S&S sauce separate. I have a healthy appetite and whilst the M42 may be more expensive than some of the other Chinese takeaways equivalents nearby, I can assure you that if you buy, for example, a couple of Spring Rolls and an extra something, this M42+ will feed four people for not much over 20 quid. Without extras I ALWAYS have enough left over from the M42 for another hearty meal. Enjoy!

Our usual choice of Chinese has gone bad! ! The meal took 90 seconds to appear, which should've warned us. Horrible tasting, and obviously warmed up from the night before food. However worse was to come! When we phoned them up to complain, they said we were lying and instead of binning the food, drive back 7 miles to return it! Great service eh? Avoid at all costs!!!

This has been the best Chinese in Exeter consistently for many years. Not only is the food always great but so are the delivery times, service and prices. They always make the effort to tell you how long the delivery will be and it is always shorter. Crispy chili beef is the best.

They use fake photos online to advertise for takeaway and it looks like the dish should have had multiple different vegetables but end up with cheap leftover potato and carrot strips (I think they’re leftover because of the taste and how soft and soaking it is).

Had a lovely dinner from here last night! Portion sizes are fantastic and food was well prepared. Service on the phone was also brilliant. The one thing that was a let down was the szechuan did not taste anything like szchuan and was rather plain and the vegetable spring rolls had pretty much no vegetables inside them. Apart from that the rest of the food was absolutely beautiful and we will definitely be ordering from here again.

We've tried a few Chinese takeways in Exeter and they've all been 'OK' but no better than that, until we tried Oriental express. This place was the most recent, and as of then, is the ONLY place we'll go as everything was excellent, apart from the food which was AMAZING. You definitely won't get a better Chinese meal than what you get here.
