I am fussy about my Chinese takeaway and I was worried because it was my first time getting it from here but it was SOOOO worth it. I’m really busy atm but had to take the time to leave a review! That’s how good it was! Fast delivery, duck satay was BEAUT and the prawns in my chow mein were not undercooked like they are at nearly every other Chinese takeaway. Still hot temperature and just very tasty and fresh.

Great food, well presented, most extensive menu I've seen in a long time.

Lovely food. Estimate of delivery time , on the dot!

Never been there before (our local Chinese takeaway has gone downhill lately so we thought we'd try somewhere new) but it was lovely! Gorgeous looking shop for a takeaway, polite and relatively fast service given how snowed under they were with phone orders, and most importantly the food (house special chow mein with prawn balls for me) was BEAUTIFUL! We'll be back, definitely.

Awful service!! We booked our order in advance, earlier in the week so that we could make sure that we secured our slot. It had been booked for 7.30 and was booked by the manager/owner of the shop. Arrived for the time that was agreed to find that not only had it not been cooked (the order was still sitting there on the counter), they couldnt tell us when it would be done. No excuse for this at all, regardless if it is Christmas eve, thats exactly why we prebooked! Left with hungry children, disgusting. WIll never be buying from them again.

After moving from London I found it hard to find a good Chinese however Ho Ho is the best in Basildon Town. Great freshly cooked hot food excellent service

This place is always so busy, and last night was no exception! Waited nearly three hours for a collection order (fairly small order too) but you know what...it was so worth it! Food is always fantastic and cooked fresh! Service always with a smile and the two girls on the phones and front of house do an amazing job. Happy new year Ho Ho!

I ordered yesterday 4/4 after reading all the positive reviews.... What a mistake I made! They opened at 5pm, I placed order at 5:13pm told 45mins for delivery; not a problem at all as their card machine wasn't working and it allowed us to get cash etc here's where it goes wrong!!!! Food was delivered before 5:30pm it was not piping hot, some chips were still frozen, rice an noodles were so compact they looked like they had been checked in a microwave, crispy beef was not crispy, curry sauce smelt amazing but had a weird sweetness almost as though it was going off! You don't need to be a chef to be able to tell the difference between reheated, over cooked, lukewarm food!!!! How could our order have been prepared, cooked and delivered in less than 17minutes?! I will not be ordering from here ever again.

What an excellent take away. I drove to the facilities and received a really warm welcome. There were at least 5 others waiting (on a Tuesday evening) yet my 3 mains and one side rice arrived piping hot and within 15 minutes. Good selection of papers and tv to keep you company. I drove as the phone was busy. Was exceptionally pleased to be offered a prawn dish foc, turned out I received meat pancake rolls and prawn crackers also free and simply the most lush prawn toast I've ever had! This wasn't your ordinary prawn toast, this was restaurant quality, along with the rest of the food. Tasty tasty tasty, great work guys. Only negative comment from the Mrs was the chicken chow mein was a little on the salty side. My Kung Po was perfect (including cashews and peanuts, nice!), with just the right balance of sweet, sour and chilli.Food hygiene was rated at 5 and the whole 'shop' was a delight, modern, bright and staff so so friendly. The head chef even came out to chat with me....I didn't reveal I was a reviewer until I left 😉.Great work Ho Ho, keep it up 👍
