9 Best Chinese Restaurants in Bristol

“Ask anyone in Bristol whether in person or on various social media pages, they’ll say Sun Fat Chinese is one of the best in the area. By the looks of it, at any given day..it’s always busy, so it’s by far the most popular Chinese restaurant in the area…I won’t say the best.
Quick Note - Pretty much all the Chinese restaurants in this area all charge the same and the meals are the same..look at the menu, select food, pay and wait for it. The ones up here also give you a choice of egg roll or soup to go with your lunch order..that’s not just here, but ALL of the restaurants here in the Bristol/Plainville area.
Food - I’ve been here on a couple of times and have tried various items from the pepper steak to the chicken and broccoli to the sesame chicken. It’s all your standard Chinese food restaurant..I don’t see where it is that far ahead of all the rest. Sesame Chicken was good…but not fantastic. You get a heaping portion of it but a ton of rice as well. The egg roll is sometimes soft, other times hard enough to go through a brick wall.
Parking - It’s in the strip mall next to Subway in the MarketEdge/Price Chopper on Farmington Ave/Route 6/72.
I’m giving it 4* total for a couple reasons…first being, no..I didn’t do a phone order..I never do on anything, it’s always as a walk-in. Got there at 2:55, went to order the lunch and was told “it ends at 3.”…I know, it’s not 3pm yet..I’m not one to argue so I said it is whatever and just give me the regular portion then…so because of that and the egg roll being rock hard, I’d give it on a 1-5…3.8-4.1“

“During my vacation, I had the pleasure of enjoying some great East Coast Chinese food. The spare ribs were thick yet delicious, and my sister opted for the General Tso’s chicken, which she really liked. Personally, I preferred the ribs. We also shared some egg rolls that were delightful. Overall, it was a satisfying dining experience.“

“I think wah lung was better when they were on the corner on west end Bristol but I still think they are good anyway. I hope things work out for them going forward bc they seem really nice and have good food. no parking really and they do not have coupons anymore so that stinks but looks clean inside“

“Our favorite spot for Chinese takeout! Everything is always fresh, hot, and delicious ? This is the best General Tso's chicken around!“

“The ramen here is so good!! They never skip out on their portions, I also love the streamed dumplings and egg rolls as well. There was one time where my order was taking a while to be made and they were communicative on how long the wait was. The staff is very nice and understanding! Definitely coming back here for sure!“

“I’ve been looking for a decent Chinese delivery place in Bristol for a while and took a chance here today, and I’m glad I did! By far some of the best Chinese food Ive had in a very long time! Literally from the first bite I knew I was coming here to review. It reminds me of my family’s old favorite spot by the same name in West Hartford and brought back some nostalgia. Will be ordering from here again and again.“

“The Bristol area is fortunate to have this very inexpensive Chinese restaurant! The Lee Po family has worked ceaselessly for decades and continues serving the community through the pandemic providing a variety of dishes made with fresh ingredients. Good food and reasonable prices to feed a family !“

“We ordered lunch specials sweet and sour chicken, boneless spare ribs and wonton soup. The sweet and sour chicken was juicy and the rice is delicious requesting no veggies in it which they did ( some forget) big pieces of pork in the rice. The boneless spare ribs were thin and tender and the rice with vegetables is excellent. Wonton great broth with alot of wontons. They threw in a vegetable roll excellent and not greasy. We were very happy they delivered earlier then they said The only thing I regret is not giving the driver a bigger tip!“

“I resided a few houses up the street fro this restaurant. EVERY MEAL I WAS IN 7TH HEAVEN. 5-STAR ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS RESTAURANT! EVERY MEAL FROM THIS PLACE WAS DIVINE! Haven't been to in years but hopefully i cam move back in town and go back someday.....“
