Chow Asian Kitchen

Should of used my brain, all other foood outlets here were busy except chow, ignored by server, while completely empty, zero customer service, asked his name which differs from his name badge, reason for this is he doesn’t have a name badge !! Strange place

The food is terrible, completely tasteless. The lady doesn't understand English.

There's no other way to put it, the katsu curry here is rubbish. The curry sauce is really just salt water coloured to look like a gravy. The staff incapable of understanding what to do with the feedback, but such is the problem with these service station outlets.

Queued up for 20 minutes to be told it’s cash-only due to the machine going down. There was no way to pay as I haven’t handled cash in years. Not to mention the risk of using it during times of COVID-19. So they just wasted my time.They could have offered me some food for free but nope they would rather just annoy their customers.They were also having issues with the card machine a few months prior but hadn’t got it fixed.I would give this place 1 star but the staff seemed nice. The food is also enjoyable (if you are lucky to have cash on you)

Went in with a good size order (11 mains plus 4 sides). The staff although stretched were polite and courteous. Order was accurate and hot, what more can you ask for...

Tasty food and much better than your usual service station selection. Only downside is the price which is admittedly a little steep. If the meals were £1-2 cheaper then this would get the coveted 5 star rating but until then this is still a good option for food if you're stopping over here. Check it out!

My favourite food is Udon, but I never had one so bad like today, no udon taste, not hot enough and then ordered some prawn katsu as a side and it came with someburned breadcrumbs, whatever they use for cooking or fry needs to be cleaned more often.

Typical exeter food cheap nasty ingredients and over priced.Large katsu curry with noodles. £9.Not as nice as it used to be.Instead of chicken breast they now use chicken thigh. Katsu curry- instead of being really tasty and nice now just tastes of salty chicken stock. Pathetic. So frustrated with Exeter everything is so overpriced.Still, it was nice enough to eat and my cat liked the chicken.

Today I had the displeasure of dealing with Brendan at Chow. I love Chow and was excited to come since it was at this super busy services. Everywhere was packed and chow was empty - bit weird I thought. I tried to order with Brendan a simple Katsu curry and so begins the interaction with the single most brain dead man I’ve ever met. No rice, really?? ok I’ll have noodles, confusion kicks in for him and he shuffles about for a bit lost and dazed. He managed to cut my chicken into strips without losing any fingers thank god and then I ask for crackers - he says no crackers today as they deposit out of a machine into a tray behind him - I say I’d like to buy those ones, he takes the tray to the kitchen and continues to walk around all confused- comes back - I don’t know where we keep the bags - ok none of them either - I looked down to at least grab a bottle of water and that ain’t there so no point asking. I paid and just left bewildered, the whole interaction start to finish was painful. Who employed this clown.I love chow, the foods lovely but this interaction was beyond a joke. Guy must have been off his head to struggle with such simplicity, it was shocking.

I have been here around June time as I was on my way to England from Wales. The lady was very nice and very helpful and the food was very affordable. I liked how big the portions were and the variety of toppings for the noodles. Anyone could find something that they like without a problem.My only complaint is that it is a bit out of the way and hard to find. I would love this restaurant to be somewhere more accessible as it is genuinely a really nice place.
