The food was very good as well as the service. Took a chance on our travels and we were very pleased!!
Service was fast, food was piping hot and so good! If you like a really strong black pepper sauce (which I do), get the #8.
Joe Chow’s has possibly the best Beef and Broccoli I have ever eaten anywhere in Canada. Highly recommend that dish and basically anything else on the menu.
Great food at great prices. It was fresh out of the wok too, because we had to wait a good few minutes for it to cool down enough to eat.
Joe Chow's offers an impressive menu that caters to a variety of tastes. Whether you're a fan of traditional Chinese dishes or looking to try something new, their extensive selection has something for everyone. The flavors are authentic and burst with freshness. Each dish was beautifully presented, showcasing the chef's dedication to both taste and aesthetics. The service was impeccable. The staff at Joe Chow's are not only knowledgeable about the menu but also attentive and courteous. They provided excellent recommendations and ensured that every aspect of our dining experience was top-notch.
Much like other low star reviews, the food may be good but for a place so busy and so re-nowned by the town there needs to be changes. A Chinese dine in/take out should never take longer than 30 mins regardless of being busy. As a first time customer being told 25-30 minutes, paying at the 30 minute mark while freshly seated dine in customer start to order their meals, end up waiting an hour while those dine ins are already being served their plates before my order was out of the kitchen, is unbelievable. No check in while waiting assuring it is coming soon or anything. No matter how good the food may have been, sushi delight, China boat and lins will always come before joe chows and even then, I’ll cook at home. Ps. Laughed at when I tried to inquire very politely if dine in May have been prioritized over take out. (Only like 5 tables seating 4 max) Do better.
Honey glazed spareribs were very good and even though the takeaway business was going crazy because of the holiday, our table service was still fast and friendly. Portions were decent. We were able to split a platter with a little soup added on. The wontons in the soup were very tasty. Decent menu selection. Would definitely return.
Love there food not pricey at all. great staff.go there when ever I can. That if Its not crazy busy
Always fresh, hot and delicious!!
Place is always busy. Food is always

Awesome Awesome Awesome
The rice had a burnt taste . There were actually little burnt pieces in it. But everything else was good .
Great food and amazing egg rolls.
Everything tasted great. They never let me down.
Great foods.
Was here for take out. After asking for recommendation from the lady on the phone for a dish, ordered Kung Pao Shrimp and Honey Chilly Chicken with Fried rice and it was SPOT ON! Not that other stuff is not good but the Most Delicious dishes so far. Thank YOU team Joe Chows for a great Saturday night supper. It was SUPER! Keep up the great work!
The employees are so kind. The portions are great, and I love the flavours. My favourite Chinese Food restaurant in Pictou County.
Mm mmm the flavors are melting on my tongue
Good Chinese food, but not my favorite in the area. Food normally slightly overcooked and tends to be a bit on the dryer side which I tend to like
Poor service waited in a line 45 minutes to get the order
Consistently delicious! Always our go to spot for Chinese food.
Even without fancy dishes, this was an amazing dinner for the family and Id definitely recommend. The egg rolls and rice are to die for! The staff were so sweet and were lovely to talk to :)
Best Chinese food in PC. Been going here for years and it has always been excellent. The staff is fantastic, it is my first stop when I get into town.
Good service. Enjoyable lunch.

Excellent service excellent food
The lowmain seemed burnt and not variety of vegetables just peppers was disappointing
Great food and people
Great food fast service
Our take-out order took an hour. This wouldnt have been an issue if they hadnt of told us it would be ready in 30 mins. The food though, was decent. China boat in Pictou (15 min from here) is far superior to this place with stellar food and service. I recommend going to the China boat instead.
I placed an order for takeout which included Sweet n Sour Chicken and egg rolls. When I arrived home I discovered that although I got the chicken balls and egg rolls they neglected to put any sauce either on the chicken or in a separate container for me to put on at home. They also did not include any plum sauce for the egg rolls. When I called and explained the issue I was asked if I could come and get it. Since I live 23 minutes from the establishment I declined to do that. Then I was advised that they would put my name in their book and on my next visit they would give me a credit.......a credit of One whole dollar (apparently that is what they charge for the sauce). I have decided to counter their One dollar offer and will never order from their establishment again. Regardless of how busy a restaurant may be if they provide a takeout service they should strive to complete the takeout order with the same diligence they would for a eat-in order.
Friendly staff and consistantly good food!
Not serving food in the restaurant? Doesnt say anything about being a take out only online
Always great food and wonderful staff!!!
They close so often and for lengths that make it difficult, there are times they are out of food by 6:00 and a sign posting, food is definatley delicious but they need to prepare more food
Food is fresh and hot, good service
Excellent experience. Food was fresh, tasty and large portions. Great service, waitress was awesome. Only thing is the exterior was a little dated, and the interior was very clean but also a little dated. Overall a great time. We will be back.
Fast, good portions
Tasty
Was willing to stay open so I could order and drive from pictou. Staff was friendly. Over all very pleased
Theres a good reason this place is busy!
Great
Food was tasty. What more can you say?
Great meal! Great service!
Great as usual, service is fast and waitresses are very friendly, and the owners are very nice!
Excellent service delicious food...I love it
Best Chinese food east of Enfield since Mings closed. I drive an hour and fifteen minutes to eat here and it is always everything I hope for. I havent tried much of the menu, usually I get the number one and a spring roll which is delicious. If youre getting take out get your sauce on the side for the sweet and sour chicken, it keeps them crispy. Only bad things to say are that there is usually lots of people and its fairly small so it can be awkward to maneuver to get your food and pay, and that once I went there at an hour to close and they were sold out of food. Would recommend to anyone to who likes Chinese food.
Always, always great food- eat in or take out. Excellent and friendly service. Love Joe Chow s!!
Good food good service
I havent gone to Joe Chows in over 30 years. My previous experience was not good. This time I was very surprised by the great service and food, but Ive heard its not always great. I will definitely be going back.
Excellent fresh hot Chinese food
The food is amazing! The line ups are worth It!
The food is tasty and the staff is very friendly. Place is kinda retro and packed at dinner time. Prices are decent/ good selection of choices
Amazing good food
Really good Chinese food.
Great food
Good food great people reasonable prices
The best Chinese food in Pictou County with lots of different plates. Sizzling beef and sizzling chicken are to die for...delicious!
Food is absolutely delocious...the restaurant itself could use some renos, but take out is available...friendly staff!
Awesome food, and great service
On our last visit there, they ran out of food. We didnt get all of what we ordered (they substituted with other items) and there were other customers behind us who were in similar circumstances. Not a good experience. They ended up closing early as well.
Good and fresh. Too small to eat in take out only. Good alternative to Mings.
We found the food is excellent.
Awesome food at a reasonable price. Friendly waitress and atmosphere.
Food is excellent,for a small restaurant the amount of food that is taken out is incredible. The service is very good as well.If youre looking for freshly cooked, delicious food....this is the place to go.
I love it there
This is my favorite Chinese food restaurant in town.
Great food great service. Small dinning area.
One of the best places to buy Chinese food in Pictou County. The dining area is small so I suggest going with take-out.
Its ok
Really good food, fast and Freindly as well.
They have the best chinese food and pictou county and the best service . The restaurant is clean and they have the best artwork (for sale ) on their walls
Always great food, friendly staff and a good location
Be sure to try there curried dishes there really something special the decor could use an update but the food makes it worth it!
Excellent food, very quick and friendly staff
Use to be the best in town. Went down hill fast after the new owner took over. Will not spend my money there.
Yummy as usual. Best chinese on new glasgow
Great food and service
Good chow mein
great food and service
Great spot to dine.
Consistently good food and quick, friendly service.
Excellent Chinese food. Great Chef and Very friendly staff.
Best Chinese food since moving to Nova Scotia in 2014. We live in Antigonish and have tried everywhere between New Glasgow and Port Hawkesbury. EVEN BETTER THAN MINGS which was our favourite. Prices r very reasonable too. A lunch special for $6.99
We are from Amherst and decided to stop in here for supper. The food was amazing and the egg rolls are to die for!
Small spot but great for a stop. Could have more food on the plate but the Singapore noodles are a hit.
Many thought that the closing down of Mings would cut New Glasgow off of great Chinese food. Joe Chows is the best replacement possible. Probably the best Chinese food in all of Pictou County even. The staff is friendly, the prices really moderate and the food simply amazingly good. The cook knows what he/she is doing and does it with love what you can taste in every bite. Hopefully Joe Chows owners will be around for a long time and keeping up the quality as it is today.
Always a great meal. Fast and great price!
new ownership new chef fabulous food - best Chinese most authentic in New Glasgow
Good North American chinese since the new owner. If you havent given this place a chance recently, try again, big change in quality.
Very generous, inexpensive, senior discounts. Very good
