50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Shelton

“Some of the best staff I’ve seen in awhile and food is great! Me and my son go and sit at sushi bar and he love it.“

“First time ordering here but we were all tired & no one wanted to cook & this was nearby. I was scared to order after reading some of these reviews. But we were all pleasantly surprised. Yes it’s standard Chinese fare but it was good. There was a lot of meat in every dish we ordered (Lo Mein, chicken chow Mein, pork fried rice, sweet & sour chicken) and it was perfectly cooked. I didn’t care for the fried wontons but everyone else liked them. Wonton soup had plenty of wontons and was yummy. Loved the sweet & sour chicken - very lightly fried so it wasn’t heavy & dull. We all voted we would go here again.“

“I’ve been a regular customer since the restaurant was in its original location on CT 111. The food is great and unlike most other Chinese restaurants the portions haven’t decreased, price although higher than before but not significantly. If you order online you can use a credit card if you wait until you get your order in person you will need cash. I travel 45 minutes to get my Chinese food from them because they are that good!“

“Very friendly, welcoming before you’re even through the door, smells amazing as you walk in. English is not the first language so you know it’s good. Reasonable pricing for such delicious food. Big menu selection as well. I’d highly recommend coming here.

Parking: Huge parking lot

Kid-friendliness: Not very many seats but I’d bring my kids if I had any

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes no problem getting in the building“

“Living in Shelton for many years but first time here-very good Chinese food for a reasonable price-we had spring rolls wonton soup shrimp with lobster sauce and the triple seafood-all good. We did takeout. Will return.“

“This is the best Chinese spot in CT. It’s authentic and wallet friendly. They also have gluten free options which is rare anywhere. We eat here all the time and never get tired, especially with all the available options. Highly recommend this spot.“

“Food was excellent and very healthy. I had the chicken and broccoli combination platter. It was some of the best I ever had. Chicken was nice and tender and very crispy. Broccoli and carrots were very delicious. Definitely will be going back. House of Chao is my new favorite Chinese restaurant. Would recommend to anyone who is passing through the Westville New Haven area and looking for good quality Chinese food ??“

“Amazing food. Drove all the way from Bristol. Well worth the 50 min drive. I loved the fried rice. The chicken my wife ordered was also amazing. Highly suggest trying this place if you haven’t. 5 stars :)“

“Tried this place for the first time last night. All of the food was delicious. The staff is very friendly. Prices are reasonable.“

“This restaurant has a very nostalgic vibe to it. Minimal decoration and it’s basically come in, eat, and leave. The menu is rather extensive and authentic. The egg roll and general Tsao chicken were amazing, very fresh, tenders and flavorful. The grill was great. The boneless ribs were disappointing and cold. They didn’t serve tea but I think you could buy it. The prices were reasonable. We order a lunch plate and it was $12.00 for a soup, egg roll, entree and choice of rice.the vegetable fried rice was just okay. The wonton broth was very good but the wonton dough was too thick. I do strongly recommend this place.“

“Best dim sum restaurant that I have EVER been to, and I constantly travel the US! I ordered 6 items, enough to feed a family of 4 and the bill was under $50. ALL of their home made sauces and dumplings were the best I've ever had. Don't miss their dan dan noodles, garlic cucumber, or hot and sour soup.“

“Will hi to all my husband used to work in front of this restaurant and he loves ❤️ this place my husband name Pete Loco ? as a friend so he knows who we are when we order on the phone and say Loco ? his food is the best in newhaven and his chicken wings are the bomb ty. Loco for being a good ? cooker God bless“

“Im gonna be dead honest with yall, this is the best Chinese food on the planet. I don’t even care who’s cooking Chinese food in actual China. It’s not better than this place. This is one of those hidden gem places you bring a friend to. The crab rangoons are made with some kind of thin flaky crispy coating. It’s genuinely S tier. I feel like the cooks here actually take pride in their work and aren’t just doing it for money. It’s so damned good omg. The lady is hella rude sometimes but she could literally slap me in the face and I would still come here.“

“Although you can place your order via Google Maps, we chose to just go there & order. They're so fast (under 10 minutes) this is a viable option. There is a single table there but I'd say this place is takeout only. It's tiny inside but it's plenty big enough to order/pickup.“

“Great food, friendly staff, pleasant atmosphere. Been here a number of times now and it's consistently great roast pork fried rice! Some places don't put enough vegetable or egg in, this restaurant hits the sweet spot in my opinion. I often take an extra order of it home. There's also a fountain and lots of plants in the eating area, gives a nice ambience.“

“I didn't want to write a review because I don't want anyone else to know about this place, but It was too good not to. Rangoon actually has crab in it! Scallions in fried rice, sauces were light and much different from what I'm used to which is refreshing. They were quite busy tonight so the food took a bit longer than anticipated, but totally worth it. I'll be back!! Shh don't tell anyone!“

“We have gone to several Chinese restaurants in the area and Golden Dragon tops all of the restaurants. The food was delicious and the staff were wonderful with beautiful spirits. The young lady at the counter greeted us with a beautiful smile, she noticed that I was amazed and loved all of the plants that she gave me a piece of one of the plants so I can plant it. This is going to be our FAVORITE CHINESE spot.“

“So glad I found this Chinese place. Wish they did deliver if they did it would be 5 stars. The food is absolutely delicious, they make it quick, they are friendly, and the prices are great. They give you big portions to and don't skimp out on the sauce. ??“

“Recommended from a friend. And the best hidden secret in Fairfield“

“Guys I’m telling you they hit the nail on the head with this one. I don’t know about you but i often get the same thing from chinese restaurants: boneless spare ribs. Now I have gone to many a chinese restaurants, I am no amateur. I was worried how these would come out because I ordered them 40 min or so before closing. I even grabbed extra soy sauce anticipating them to be dry and juiceless… I could not have been more wrong. The succulent smell of the sweet sauce paired with fried rice made my nose (and tummy) very happy. Not to mention the staff was very polite and friendly. I did not stay, but the interior was quite elegant. It’s not like it was gourmet either. I mean i payed typical tackout price, for a typical takeout combo platter, and they just got it so good. I recommend for sure.“

“Absolutely the best Beef LoMein - literally brought me back to Asia. Spot on!“

“I have tried afew places in Seymour. Picked up takeout tonight. General Tsao Chicken and shrimp, fried dumplings, fried rice and an egg roll. Everything was amazing and fresh. Vegetables in the dish fresh. Food was amazing and not bland. Way better than the other places I have tried in Seymour. Don't believe the negative reviews. This will be my new go to for Chinese food without a doubt.“

“Food is very good. Best in the area but they really need to remove all that messy storage from where the waiting area is. Seeing that mess is a turn off. If the front of the store looks like that what does the back look like? Other than that the food is great!“

“I read reviews about this place make me sceptical! Today I went with my husband and 3 little kids 7, 4 and 2! It's incredible! The restaurant is big! The food is yummy and delicious! The person in charge Jay is friendly and knowledgeable! Their ambience is cozy and the hotpot is not dangerous for little ones because is concealed inside not with an external pot that can spill! I've been so many hotpots in Asia this is my first time seeing such automatic hotpot lift up and drain out the soup! The pork bone soup is good not too salty! The shui mai is huge although is pricey for 4 pieces are $8! The buffet for hotpot for one is $29.99 that's worth it! The fish balls and xiao long bao are good! The steamed pork ribs are good! Those who gave negative reviews are inaccurate! I've little ones with me and I'll definitely will bring my kids there to eat again when we want to eat Chinese food! We love hotpot and dim sum! Jay told me this is first dim sum restaurant in Connecticut! We are glad we went there today! It was a wonderful experience and the staffs are so friendly and the food were made on time although we have to wait 18 mins for the xiao long bao to make the 2nd time! If you have many with you advise to order 2 right at away to avoid waiting! There are 2 giant vip rooms they are see through glass if you have big families or Friends this an awesome place to come and enjoy your meal. It'll really nice when kids are bigger that I don't need to watch them running around but is highly recommended place after I had been there myself!“

“One of our favorite Asian restaurants. We have been going for years, and the food is consistently delicious, and the prices are great. Thai big bowl soup, sauteed spinach and garlic sauce, chicken and vegetables in white sauce are among our favorite dishes here.“

“I lived a mile away from this place for 20 years. This was our go-to Chinese take-out restaurant. I was down south for eight years and now, I’m in Branford. We have not gotten any decent Chinese food in Branford, so I decided to pick up a quart of pork-fried rice last night as a little test. I was delighted to see that the same family owned the restaurant. They were still so pleasant and the quality had not diminished in the slightest. Anyway, the rice was fantastic and still the best I’ve ever had. Check them out. I can’t wait to order other dishes from them.“

“It’s the most wonderful thing I ever tasted, the best Chinese Food spot in CT. When I tasted their Crab Rangoon, it awakened my eyes and gave me the drive and motivation to do stuff again. I was going through though times and Oriental’s food really help me pulled out of that. I like to say thank you for saving me Oriental“

“I used to go here growing up. It was my favorite Chinese take out. Decided to stop by and grab lunch yesterday (3/23/23) and it was just as good as I remember it! I ordered the bbq spareribs and pork fried rice along with a wonton soup and they were all DELICIOUS! Can’t wait to order from there again!

Parking: Plenty of parking“

“Best Chinese food around and I’ve tried them all! They use white meat chicken and it’s always cooked perfectly. Big portions and reasonable prices.“

“I love this place! They offer first-cleass meals, they have a nice menu, The cook in that restaurant is well trained, I like a lot tasting all their food. The dishes are always fresh and tasty, the service towards the visitors is agreeable. I frequently visit this place and I not even once was unsatisfied. Highly recommended.“

“Just had it delivered with Uber Eats soooooo good“

“Our waiter Phillipe was fantastic!!! Food was great we will be back.“

“Ordered a bunch of food the spring rolls and egg rolls were excellent fantastic fried dumplings really good lo mein orange chicken smells delicious but haven't gotten there yet delivery driver was courteous kind with a smile on his face the only downside is the lady who answers the phone doesn't speak very good English.other than that excellent place to go better Chinese food here than anywhere else in Bridgeport that delivers.....“

“We have been coming here for years since their daughter was a little girl. She used to sit at a table and do her homework while her hard working parents worked. The food is great, they are very efficient and we highly recommend this take-out place.“

“The best in the area, very good food it is always fresh and high-quality. This is the only place I will order Chinese food from. My only complaint is that they offer delivery but they don’t like to deliver lol They will try to make you pick up and tell you there is a long delivery time.“

“Lin's Kitchen has been, without a doubt, the most authentic Chinese restaurant I've come across during my many years in Connecticut. Whether it's for birthdays, anniversaries, or special holidays, this is always my top choice. The dishes here are truly authentic, far beyond the level of typical takeout places. I genuinely love the food here, and it's the reason I confidently recommend it to friends.“

“Main Wah is one of many Chinese Food options in the local Stratford area. Main Wah stands out for the freshness and prices compared to others in the area to be honest it is my ONLY go to Chinese spot in Stratford because all the others are sub par, and often leave me feeling ill.

Main Wah has a wonderful selection of Asian favorites as well as an elaborate, affordable and delicious lunch menu. Main Wah is open 7 days a week for your convenience, and offers a variety of spice levels for EVERY dish.“

“Ming Feng offers great food. Some dishes are better than others and specific to the person.

My Asian wife and I love the Moo Goo Gia Pan. The Ribs with bone, chicken on a stick, hot and sour soup, fried wontons, spring rolls, chicken wings, French fries for the kids and much more are very consistent and IMO 4.5⭐️

In our opinion Meng Feng is the best we've had in the area. I personally have been going to Meng Feng since 1986 and now the 4th owner. A few times a week is a must.“

“I love ordering from here the food is delicious , very well prepared always !!My only problem is Delivery driver has to stop asking for tip it’s really rude the way he asks for it and it’s very unprofessional .! he needs to learn that maybe someone spent their last on the food and don’t have it to tip at that moment!.“

“This is hands down the best fast food Chinese restaurant in Bridgeport. My family and I have been loyal customers for almost 20 years. Their boneless chicken, broccoli with brown sauce, and tostones are unbeatable, and the portions you get for the price are unmatched. The staff also speaks Spanish, which is a plus. I highly recommend this spot!

The only downside is that they accept cash only, and the surrounding area can feel a bit sketchy, especially in the evenings/nights. There are often people hanging around outside the entrance, sometimes drinking, smoking, or asking for money. I suggest picking up your food before 8:00 P.M. and, for safety, recommend that women go with someone or have someone else pick up the food for them, especially at night.“

“My fiancé and I loyally order from here when we are craving Chinese food or sushi. Not only does the food always hit the spot, but their service is amazing. When I informed the woman working at the front of my gluten sensitivity, she took time to run through every ingredient and its contents and triple checked there would be no contamination (who knew imitation crab had gluten?). They took my sensitivity very seriously and I’m extremely grateful for that, as this service is rare.

Dietary restrictions: Very gluten-intolerant friendly“

“Delicious and excellent quality“

“I arrived in Milford. Connecticut around 7:45 pm from New Jersey. I checked in to my hotel then arrived at Dumpling House around 8:30 and ordered Scallion Pancakes, Stir-fried Bok Choy and Mushrooms, and Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes. They all worked well with each other; The scrambled egg dish was surprisingly wonderful: perfectly-cooked scrambled eggs sauteed with fresh tomatoes till the maters release their juices. there was enough bok choy and eggs with tomatoes left over that I just mixed them with a free bowl of steamed brown rice that came with the bok choy dish, and it'll be my breakfast tomorrow“

“I've gotten food here a few times, it is my go to for chienses food. I literally tell everybody about it. I'm obsessed with the egg fried rice and I am consistently craving it. Add an egg roll and its perfect. Literally such a nice sweet place with great food.“

“Food was good, hot, and ready quickly.
Their customer service over the phone is offputting. I was hung up on without getting a pickup confirmation time, order total, or confirming my name. I called back to confirm all of this and was hung up on a second time.“

“Egg foo young, shrimp fried rice, and shrimp egg roll. All was fresh and DELISH! Although, Cutting Corners like every other Place. Skinny jean shrimp egg roll ? and minimal shrimp in both shrimp roll and fried rice... Not COOL! Recoop your Covid loss in other ways....NOT SMART..MAY LOSE REGULAR BUSINESS Playing this Game... PPL Pay for what they EXPECT TO RECEIVE or We take our Business Elsewhere...?“

“Dining at this restaurant today is very comfortable! The environment is decorated with style, which makes people feel happy. The waitstaff are efficient and can respond to needs in time. There were no troubles throughout the process, and I want to come back next time!“

“I live in the area and have tried all the Chinese places in town. This has been the best by far and my go to place. The food is consistently good, the service is fast, and the owners are nice. Other Chinese places keep raising prices and decreasing portion sizes but this place has always maintained quality and portion with good price. Busy place. Recommend.“

“The food was prepared well. To go packaging was very reliable. Extensive menu choices. Quick quality service. Good size portions. Quality ingredients. We will recommend this restaurant to friends and family.

Parking: I had no problem finding a parking space.“
