Possibly the most fresh Chinese Iâve ever eaten. We are visiting Devon staying down the road from the Chinese and trip advised local food places.We called and made the order on the phone, picked it up about 20 mins later. Ordered quite a-bit and it came to £29. The food was spot on, One small moan, husband asked for prawn crackers, was told to pay £1.80 but another customer came in and was told it was free. Not sure it was the cost of the order but weâre used to free crackers over £12 in London lol! All in all I would recommend eating here. Food was lovely!

Long story short but messed up booking tables for party of 10Not responsive to requests to shuffle or join tables. Pretty arrogant and argumentative. My party of 9 walked out this evening and we went to Dragon Pearl and had a great meal. £330 which would have been spent there if they just joined 2 tables together. Will not return ever as treated so badly.

Upon a recommendation we tried to book on a busy Saturday night before heading to Lucky 7. Despite being told on the phone that they were fully booked we took a chance at around 7pm to pop in and ask if they could fit us in. To our delight they "found" a table for two. Excellent food, ambiance and lovely team. A BYO so cheap meal out to boot.

We are not just an ordinary Nepalese or Indian restaurant. Founded in 2004 as a take-away in Market Street, Torquay, we were the very first Nepalese Cuisine Speacialist in the whole of Torbay or Devon. We have grown from a single small takeaway to a big l

Hidden gem tucked away on a side street with an unusual view. Bhajis are delicious and the accompanying yellow sauce is fresh and light and addictive. Curries are packed full of flavour and I highly recommend the goat. Service efficient. No.1 restaurant in Paignton for me.Thank you LokiLaaLaa for the review. Glad you enjoyed the goat meat which is one of our speciality curry here and we do get lots of compliments for our bhajis as well. I will pass this review to all our staff as well and hope to see you soon in near future.

My friend wanted to try Nepalese food so we went to the Nepalese Gurkha. We went on a Sunday night. The staff were really friendly. We ordered popadoms which were good. I ordered the Himalaya combination which was really tasty. The naan bread was good. The portions are big so we took some food home. Will be going back. Great family restaurant.

Visited this Thai restaurant for dinner before theatre. Had checked all reviews for the handful of Thai restaurants in Paignton and chose this one based on the many good reviews. We were extremely impressed. It certainly equalled the best Thai meals we've had anywhere in the UK. Very happy and will be back.

First night in Torquay for family holiday, decided on Thai takeout, did a quick search and came across this little gem, maybe seats 12, open plan kitchen, friendly staff and food to die for. If your in the area and fancy a Thai do not pass this place up!

We regularly have take away from here and have also eaten in recently. The food is of an excellent standard. Freshly prepared and delicious. There are some more unusual dishes, as well as old favourites. It is very good for vegetarian and vegan options, great when you have a mixed group with different dietary requirements.
