Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Food was very tasty as always, only problem with the food was chips tasted as if they were reheated but this wasn’t a massive issue. Was told we have to wait 50 minutes for delivery but only waited 35! Price and quality of food was...very goodMore

We ordered spring rolls they were awful like something from the frozen section in Asda! Mini spring rolls with no flavour and no filling! My lemon chicken had no sauce?! It was dry fried chicken no flavour or sauce!! I did read the reviews before...I ordered and thought surely it can’t be that bad if I order simply those things 😬 however it wasn’t good!More

Never got to try the food! Waited an hour for a delivery and was then informed that they couldn’t deliver. So very disappointing and embarrassing as we had ordered a meal to thank our in laws for having us!

Ruined the last night of a lovely week away. Why be on JUST EAT if you cancel the order and say you have no drivers to deliver- we are 2 miles down the road?!?!

My son was visiting for a few days and as we had fed and watered him, he kindly decided to treat us to a takeaway via JustEat last Saturday. The only Chinese place available was this one and in typical style my son went overboard...with his ordering. We waited expectantly and we eagerly unpacked our order (45 minutes late). We were so disappointed, everything tasted as if it had been cooked days before and simply had sauces added. The Chicken Satay kebabs tasted not of satay but chinese curry and were tough as old boots. The BBQ Spare ribs didn't taste of any BBQ sauce I have ever tasted and again were so tough as to be virtually uneatable. All the meat with the exception of the Chicken Balls and Duck fely old stale and tough. I wanted to complain but my Son said not to, so I am leaving this review instead. Very, very unsatisfactory.More

Wasn't the best as it lacked flavour so wouldn't recommend the salt and spiced chicken and spring rolls tasted weird. Delivery turned up before expected which is good.

After a long day visiting Lundy Island we fancied some Chinese food before heading back to our Woolacombe base for the week. We found the Paramount near to the Quay and enjoyed lovely food, with prompt and friendly service at a very reasonable price. Would...definitely revisit if back in the area.More

Decided to pop in on a whim on the way home one night. Brilliant takeaway food, it was piping hot and really tasty, and great value for money too. Will definitely return.

We had intended to eat at Tintin over the road, not realising that they only do takeaway. Fortunately we were directed to the restaurant at Paramount. Very unassuming from the outside, and not especially inviting but we ventured in. The food was excellent with prompt,...friendly and helpful service. They were also busily taking takeaway orders. Latecomers were turned away because the small restaurant was fully booked. Recommend a visit.More

Possibly one of the best Chinese meals I've had the pleasure to taste. If I'm down in this part of the country again I'll be back.
