40 Best Chinese Restaurants near Cheshire

“Legitimately the best lo mein and dumplings I’ve ever had. Friendly staff, food always hot. I’ve been coming here for 11 years and if I ever move away from the Cheshire area I will still make the trek for China Dragon. No other Chinese food spot in the area even comes close.“

“Hands down the owner goes out of his way to deliver to me when they really don't deliver and the food is always always excellent and he has the best wonton soup I've ever had. Ps does anyone know who the owners are is it the lady that's always up front.“

“Just had dinner at Sakana. The food and drinks are always delicious, fresh, and fast! Our waitresss was also amazing - very thoughtful, anticipating needs without needing to be asked and so kind to our kiddo- even giving some kids chopsticks to take home. Highly recommend if you haven’t been already!“

“I came here simply because I Googled Chinese food in Wallingford and looked for the best reviews. Well Diner’s Haven did not disappoint!! The best friend dumplings I have ever had and their Pad Thai was amazing. I’m coming back with my family next time!!“

“Amazing place!!

Went to this place for the first time with my friends, and were originally drawn to the interior decorating. If you look closely, the lights are in the shapes of dumpling steam boxes!! Dumplings are their specialty, and the restaurant even features a look-and-see glass box called the “Bao Lab”, where you can watch, interact with the cooks, and even record the process!!

I ordered the crab rangoons and the brisket ramen, SO DELICIOUS. We also ordered the pork and crab dumplings to share, and you get a box of 6 for $13, which is pretty reasonable! Great staff, very attentive and personable. Our servers were Patrick and Jodie, and they took very good care of us!!

The only complaint I can muster is that the soup was a little cold, but that’s only because they wanted to ensure our food all came out at once!

Great place for a first-try or if you want to try something new, with delicious food, great servers, and a fantastic atmosphere.

8/10!!“

“First time going to this restaurant.. ABSOLUTELY Amazing! Owner Chris introduced himself and was very nice. The food was ready as soon as I got there. Our orders were more than expected, fresh, delicious and so fair on prices. We will be back ❤️“

“Food is always hot and delicious...its my only go to Chinese Restaurant.“

“Best Chinese Food in Meriden“

“We got the house lo mein, pork friend rice and fried chicken wings. It was all very good! Friendly staff too.“

“Fresh, and good food. Special requests fulfilled and price is fair. Dee“

“I ordered shrimp lol main and never did anything to the manager owner but he was a miserable person I would not ever go back he said take your money and leave. He should go back where he came from.“

“This is a primarily take out. Food is good, not the best I've ever had, but good, and definitely worth the $$. I am from out of town and have twice in a month. It's not first choice if dinning out, but for take out its in my top 5.“

“SO 🏮 DELICIOUS 🍤. This is not your average Chinese food restaurant. The owners are super nice, the food is tasty and fresh, the atmosphere brings you back to 1993 (that's a compliment btw 😂). I've now devoured the orange chicken combo, the sesame chicken combo, the crab rangoon, and tried my wife's General Tao's Chicken. I am constantly impressed. Now here's the thing ... the rice HITS. Fried rice these days is usually forgettable, either super oily or just tastes old. NOT HERE. I'm a veg fried rice person, and the rice is fragrant and addictive. The prices are also VERY FAIR. Just make sure you bring cash! I love Happy Dragon. Jai Shri RAM ✊🪷🎍🐉🀄
Oh and they subbed spring rolls for our egg rolls on the combo at my request, which was super kind of them. Those were crispy and fresh too!“

“Best chinese food around!“

“Perfect choice! Ordered lunch shrimp with broccoli with curry sauce. It came with fried rice. Looked and tasted great! Loved the no MSG comments, and that soup, soda, or egg rolls were optional add-ons and not automatic. Swift friendly service, and sauces and utensils were easily available. Perfect size to eat while I waited for an order at Walmart pickup across the street.“

“I’ve been coming to this place ever since I was a kid and the food has always been something me and my family will always love to eat. The staff are the best and kindest people ever. I highly recommend this place it’s the best Chinese place in the area!“

“I have eaten here about 6 times in the last month.For a take out restaurant, the food is fresh and good. The quality was consistent in my experience. Definitely one of the better Chinese take outs I have bought from.

Parking: plenty of parking“

“Recommended by a friend, and did not disappoint!! We made the drive from Bristol and everything was fantastic! Will be coming back soon because no local spots around me are of this quality. We ordered 1/2 chicken, General Tso, Boneless Spare Rib, chicken wings, beef and broccoli, lo mien, and crab ragoon. Everything was flavorful and generous portions.“

“Great prices, generous portions, and amazing flavor!
I highly recommend the spare ribs here. My child always says that the ribs from this restaurant are the best they’ve ever had, and I completely agree. The fried rice and noodles are also excellent—everything we’ve tried has been consistently delicious.
What really made me happy was the service. The woman who takes orders remembered me, and when I made a mistake with my online order, she called to confirm the details. That personal touch truly meant a lot to me and made the experience even better.
We’ll be returning to Korea soon, and I will truly miss this place. I always recommend it to my friends whenever I can.“

“I love the food, my favorite is the lo mein! The restaurant is clean, good service, I had a wonderful experience, and a welcoming atmosphere. Everything was delusion and the staff were very friendly! I highly recommend this restaurant their service was quick. Everything exceeded my expectation! Looking forward to revisit!“

“I moved from ny and this is the best Chinese food in Hamden. The owners are so accommodating when I make special requests for my picky toddler. I’m so glad my family found them because I love my weekend Chinese food. I highly recommend them“

“So far, I’ve only had the chicken and broccoli which is very good, but I have to say the real star out of the two items I ordered was the hot and sour soup! They’re hot and Sour soup is the best I’ve had in the area hands-down however it is very spicy so if you don’t want it spicy, ask them to alter it. Update I tried the curry shrimp and it was the best curry shrimp dish of any Chinese food establishment I’ve ever been to.“

“The food soothes the pallet, and the atmosphere is great! The Home made duck sauce was the best I've had, shumai was tender, and crab ragoons were the freshest. The shrimp fried rice and pineapple fried rice are very good. I always keep a look out for who has the best orange chicken, and this place has it. Everything is well kept and clean, as well as the bathrooms. The hostess is exceptionally accommodating.“

“Haven’t been there since last year but it was my son’s birthday and he wanted to go…. I was glad to hear they were open.. we enjoyed the food and the service was good! We will definitely be returning to our spot 😋“

“I feel bad that when I order I'm sometimes not feeling well but the soup it's something about it because it always makes me feel better I've had there pork fried rice and there food is great. And the smile I get when I get my food that's customer service. The atmosphere to me it's like walking in to one of the restaurants in China town New York City where I grew up it's a great feeling like you never want to leave. Well for me this is my experience.“

“Spicy diced chicken is 🔥 🔥🔥. Won't go to another place in town again.“

“Food is amazing. But the lady who picks up the phone is rude EVERYTIME! Like if she hates her job or is annoyed all the time. Im never rude back, even if she, cause I wouldnt want my food tampered with . But she has also has hung up the phone on me several times when I simply say I would like to order. & today she was so rude that it made me so uncomfortable & she got my order wrong. Makes me not want to order from there which sucks cause the food is really good.“

“The best Golden fingers compared to others, it tastes and looks like actual chicken! Egg rolls and fried rice also always fresh and flavorful!! Staff is always friendly and orders always ready on time! Not my fav style for the crab Rangoon or the boneless spare ribs, but also not bad. I just prefer my rangoons more cream cheesy, but these were still really good. Soft center crispy outside perfectly cooked and not too greasy! Had a yummy chive? Flavor!“

“This restaurant is one of the cleanest I have ever seen. Secondly their chicken teriyaki chicken combo is soooooo delicious! They give you a great portion of chicken teriyaki served on cabbage and pork fried rice with pork eggroll. This is my go to and it tastes so good every time.“

“Excellent! Very fresh veggies and meats. Didn't sample any rices or noodles...low carb due to A1C test🤦‍♂️ Great selection and very tasty. 2nd time here this week“

“The BEST IN WATERBURY. Always Fresh rice and big portions. NEVER NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. Eating their food over 14 YEARS.“

“I recently moved to Southington and was hesitant to try this business out due to the mixed reviews. I can honestly say I'm glad I gave it a shot because the food was excellent. The rice was fresh and not hard and stuck together like other places. Vegetables were fresh and everything was ready when promised. The ease of the online ordering was very convenient. Will definitely be returning!“

“We order take out from these guys at least 2x a month and we love the food. I am very picky when it comes to Chinese food. It cannot be oily or have a strange aftertaste. We have tried many restaurants and if it is not Up to Par the first time, the number is deleted and we move on. This location is a keeper. The ingredients are fresh, the food comes hot, they make it pretty quick and the price is reasonable. You will not be disappointed.“

“Wasn't expecting much from this little hole in the wall restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised by how great the food is! The General Tso's chicken wasn't too hot, and was the perfect mixture of spicy and sweet. The crab rangoon was, quite honestly, the best I've ever had. Would definitely recommend this place.“

“This restaurant is a gem. Never in a million years would you think a strip mall restaurant in Wallingford `prepares food this fantastic. We found it via google and have been back several times- I can’t speak to everything on the menu, but all the dishes we’ve ordered were delicious- portions are generous and staff very professional. There’s a sign on the door that they’re only doing take-out so maybe call ahead if you’re looking for dine-in service.“

“First time going to China Garden. I saw reviews were mixed but I always try places myself. I asked about mixed reviews and she said they are under new owners. Overall very satisfied and the food was consistent with what to expect from Chinese take out. We got Pork egg food young, Chicken w/broccoli, Chicken wings and Crab rangoons. We liked the rangoons triangle shaped vs. other restaurants. Had no issues with our order. Place was clean from everything I saw. We would go back. I don't see a link to add photos but I would have.“

“Food is amazing never disappoints.“

“The best in Naugatuck!“

“I looked up Chinese restaurants. This was the closest to me and their prices were lower. I was very worried I was looking for trouble by going for the less expensive. Not even close. The food was excellent. The employees were very friendly. Parking is horrific. Location seems to be a scary part of town. That said, there were so many people in the restaurant as well as standing outside, who apparently live in the area. It looks to me the locals all love this place. And, for good reason. Great prices and good food.“

“I eat here at least twice a week I have tried every Chinese restaurant in Waterbury this one is one of the best there food is consistently good and same every time .Only complaint is not very friendly and I always have to ask for fortune cookies and chopsticks other than that no other complaints.“
