So pleased to find this place, above all competition in my local town, would happily drive the 15 minutes to pick up from here. Prices better than most, very generous portions and great views while you wait, also nice to see an open wok kitchen in action... How it should be with Chinese food! I have traveled in East Asia and the food here for a takeaway has a more authentic feel and style. Only disappointment was finding out they don't do HO FUN anymore, even though the picture was still on the menu, one of my favourite noodle dishes and usually only available in restaurants. If they had still done this it would've been my new favourite takeaway. However it's still right up there compared to many others around here. Will be back to try some other dishes!

This is one of the best Chinese takeaways around in my opinion. I regularly used to get some food and eat it over looking the harbour. I can really recommend their Salt & Pepper Chilli Chicken 👌🏼, also their curries are good.

Excellent Chinese take-away - especially if you are staying on the seafront. The people in there are friendly and welcoming. The food is really good quality, flavoursome and generous, with reasonable prices.

Excellent food, just fancied this whilst we were ready to go back home from our holiday, read reviews that this was one of the best take aways in paignton- wasn't wrong. Added the menu as it was difficult to order on the phone having no idea as to what they did- for anyone else in the same position. Make note, prices might have changed since I uploaded these

A super Chinese take away positioned right on the harbour. An open kitchen so you can watch the staff cook the food. Prices are very good and food is delicious. We asked for forks and spoons and ate our food overlooking the harbour. A few "timed" parking spaces opposite but I think free after 6pm. Staff are friendly and helpful.
