23 Best Chinese Restaurants near Avon

“Takeout review:I read that this is not your normal Chinese takeout spot so I had to check it out. They serve authentic Chinese Szechuan cuisine and has locations in West Hartford and Fairfield. I ordered the hot appetizer, Chengdu Dumplings which are steamed pork dumplings with their special garlic sauce; this was sweet, spicy, and in hot chili oil. The flavors were delicious and I should've ordered two of these to make an entree. For my entree, I had the crispy chicken in spicy garlic sauce. Since this was a takeout order,they had the sauce in a separate container so the chicken won't be soggy. Before pouring the sauce over your chicken, make sure to shake it first. The sauce was okay and not that spicy. I probably wouldn't order this again.The next time, I want to try our the Dan Dan noodles, Seven Flavors Wonton, Spicy Cumin Beef, Chong Qing chicken, and many more. The prices were definitely higher than other Chinese spots. Overall, a good Szechuan spot for your non typical Chinese dishes.“

“Great service, atmosphere, and most importantly - amazing food! Highly recommend the scallion pancake roll with twice cooked pork, it was so good and our favorite dish. Dan Dan noodles also great. I'll be back to try the bao, the soup dumplings were good but not my favorite.“

“Chef Jiang in Farmington boasts an authentic menu that deviates from the usual Americanized Chinese fare. While I appreciate their commitment to regional Chinese cuisine, my experience fell a bit short of expectations.At first when we arrived they were mopping the floors and the cleaner smell overpowered our senses.We started with an array of dumplings, excited to dive into this cornerstone of Chinese dim sum. The vegetable fried dumplings were undeniably fresh, showcasing crisp wrappers and plump fillings. However, the flavor profile leaned too heavily on the sauce we dipped them in leaving them a bit one-dimensional. The shrimp and sticky rice shumai came across similarly, with the offering a punch of fishiness that overpowered.The highlight of our meal were the dumplings in chili sauce. Each bite burst with a satisfying heat, balanced by the richness of the filling. Again, the freshness of the dumplings shone through, but the flavor could have benefited from additional complexity. The soup dumplings mirrored the above sentiment.Ultimately, while Chef Jiang offers a refreshing departure from the familiar, the execution didn't quite match the ambition. The emphasis on freshness is commendable, but I yearned for more nuanced flavors in the fillings and sauces. We ended up stopping before delving further into the menu, as the portions were generous.Would I recommend Chef Jiang? It depends on your culinary compass. If you're an adventurous diner seeking authentic Chinese flavors, it's worth a try. However, if you crave Americanized Chinese food, you might leave wanting more“

“This place was pretty good. Definitely one of the best Chinese restaurants I've ever eaten at. The atmosphere is wonderful and my waiter, Sebastian, should get a damn raise because he is so nice. I got the spicy Chang chicken or whatever and it was very tender. The only complaint I'd have was that this place is slightly pricier compared to other Chinese restaurants (my meal costed like 19 bucks or around there). Even the fortune cookies tasted good.“

“A MUST. I'm from out of state and every single time I visit I ask to go here. Consistently delicious. My go-to is general tso chicken. Never a 'weird' piece of meat, very crispy and generous portion. We've tried basically every appetizer on the menu, all 10/10. Our favorites are crab Rangoon, and the spring rolls. The cocktails are very tasty, the lemon drop especially. Some drinks are served in fun glasses like a tiki! Service is great, very friendly and attentive. Never have to wait too long but I also like that the food doesn't come out asap too. Would absolutely recommend this restaurant and will continue coming back!“

“Decided to stop in and try for the first time and the food was actually delicious and did not taste old like other Chinese take out! The lady in the front is so sweet and welcoming truly made the experience even better she even gifted my daughter a little cake! I would definitely go back.“

“Food was delicious. Soup bowl is huge - best shared with another person.I had the beef tomato and pineapple. It was fantastic.Dietary restrictions: Our friend who was with us is allergic to onions. They left them out of her meal. Her husband's meal had onions and they were very willing to take it back ane replace it so they could share. We asked for no cilantro and were happy with our meal.Parking: It's a storefront restaurant in a shopping plaza with a large parking lot.“

“We loved this place! Authentic Chinese food - Stephanie. The Chengdu dumplings and cold rabbit appetizers were fantastic! my son had the crisp pork belly, and I had the sliced smoked duck. Soooooo delicious! Can't wait to bring the hubs here.“

“We’ve had a few excellent experiences over the last two months here since we moved to town.Great clean egg rolls, steamed pork dumplings, bone on spare ribs, hot & sour soup and shrimp egg foo young.Everything is fresh and clean. Nothing is dripping oil.Parking: Plenty“

“Exceptional food. Wife used to live down the street so she'd go frequently now we live farther away but whenever in the area prioritize stopping there and getting food. Sonny the owner is one of the nicest most personable people on the planet making the visit there exponentially better. Definitely go here and eat you will love it and want to go back. Sonny don't ever stop being a great person. Thank you.Parking: Tough parking but you'll find a spot and there's side road/behind building spots.Kid-friendliness: Kids items available.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes front accessible.“

“This is the best place. I don't live that close and sometimes when craving Chinese food I have caved and tried the recommended places near me and I always regret not just driving to Burlington. Every time I have gotten food here it has been delicious, consistent and it always hits the spot. I highly recommend them.“

“The food at Cheng's Kitchen is very good and fresh. I will and have recommended this restaurant to family and friends. I have also posted a photo of my food many times on my Facebook page. The turnaround time for delivery is very quick. The restaurant is in a convenient location and a nice place to eat.“

“By far the best Chinese food in Central CT. Thank you so much for your excellent cuisine. Good food really feeds the soul! For people upset with the phone etiquette - try to understand this is a very busy restaurant with high call volumes. The outstanding meal is worth it.“

“This is our regular date night restaurant. Fantastic drinks, sushi and service. We always ask for whatever the special roll is and then order a bunch of different rolls. They have excellent martinis and Japanese sodas for the non-drinkers or kids. Highly recommended!“

“I've lived in Beijing, Hong Kong, and rural China for over 5 years in total. Now living in rural Massachusetts it is difficult to find decent Chinese. I drove out of my way to try Lemongrass and I was pleased. The place was clean, neat, and tastefully decorated. The congyoubing (scallion pancake) was quite good as was the Mongolian beef. The taro bubble tea was outstanding. I'm sure it's a challenge to get the right ingredients in a place like this but this is the best Chinese food I've found within an 1 hour radius so it's worth the trip in my view. And to add, the owner couple was extremely friendly and chatty so I had a chance to practice my Mandarin Chinese.“

“I love Mama Khang. This is my go to this side of the CT River for Vietnamese. Service is a bit slow. But I commend Mama Khang working as hard as she does at her age. For good food, it's worth the extra patience and grace to support this small business.“

“i have been going to this Chinese restaurant for it seems like forever. the married couple who own it and ran it were so very nice. but then they sold it and new people run it. but the food quality was still good and the people running are good. BUT the prices have gone up (like everything else has) and you no longer get a free item if you spend a certain amount. they no longer offer that.“

“I can not explain how grateful I am for the gratitude and quality of food that this restaurant has given me. I am so happy that I am to have found this restaurant! I have only ordered now my second time, and I live about 25 minutes away, and I’m being so serious when I say this that my food so hot that I have to let it cool off still!!! Now try to top that where your food comes perfect like this. GREAT PORTIONS TOO!! Trust this review because I’m always honest (it doesn’t really go in my favor sometimes lol) thank you guys for being amazing!!?“

“A very few and far between authentic asian restaurant here in CT. I have been to Xi'an on multiple occasions and I can truly say the food is AUTHENTIC. Not only is the food great but so is the service. The LiangPi noodles is a well know street food in Xi'an and they have successfully brought it here to my neighborhood. Upon the other dishes I have tried, my personal favorites are the cumin beef noodle, spicy sour lamb dumplings, as well as the pork sauce noodles. I highly recommend this place as this is now my go to food spot!“

“First time ordering used Door Dash. Food was delivered hot ahead of estimate time & it was really good! The veggie dumpling & crab Rangoon were outstanding, general tso's also tender tasty with just a little bit of heat. Only negative was fried wontons were too dark over fried. Will definitely order from here again.“

“We loved this place! Authentic Chinese food - Stephanie. The Chengdu dumplings and cold rabbit appetizers were fantastic! my son had the crisp pork belly, and I had the sliced smoked duck. Soooooo delicious! Can't wait to bring the hubs here.“

“I’ve been eating from this place for over a year and it’s very good Chinese food. They don’t participate with delivery services and they also don’t deliver. I’m sure they are losing a lot of business by not getting with the times. I go here often and it’s the very best tasting Chinese. I’ve tried so many and the others have all been disappointing.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ?I have been to many places, and there is always an item I find that is just okay..NOT ASIAN BISTRO in Bristol!I purposely order multiple items:1.boneless spare ribs/fried rice2. Beef Lo-mein3. Fried Wonton4. :Pork Ramen"5. Egg RollsEverything was immaculate, We'll packaged, quality was much better than expected as well as the quantity.My past favorite places were Lee Po or Lotus Garden..because of the few misses they have,I'll only be coming to Asian Bistro from here on out ??✨️“
