I don't like Asian cuisine, I probably eat it once or twice a year, if that, but this Chinese Restaurant is top-notch! Fresh authentic Chinese cooking that's as close as you can get without making it yourself. The fried rice is unlike any other take Chinese food I ever had. Definitely love going here when I can.And the service is great, friendly, and accommodating. They take care of their customers.The prices are a little up there, but it's definitely worth it for the food that you do get. Great portion sizes and good food. Win-win all around.

The food isn't THAT great. Yes, it's better than most Chinese places. But it certainly isn't worth the high prices and the regularly rude and abrasive treatment from Annie. Be prepared to subserviently walk on eggshells when you order. Don't ask for any changes to a dish. Don't assume she'll accomodate YOUR requested time preference. Be prepared to agree with whatever she says and be glad she agreed to have her husband cook for you. Even then, sooner or later she'll bite your head off and leave you wondering why you went back again. Not. THAT. Good.

I've seen several people mentioned that this place the little expensive. I believe you get what you pay for. Our food was outstanding. It was made fresh. The pork fried rice was not greasy. The fantail shrimp and gold fingers were light and crispy. Not a ball of those stuck to a small piece of chicken. What's the best teriyaki we've ever eaten. It was not overcooked at all. Well we're not from this area we look forward to visiting this establishment in the future. Great job!

Delicious food, made with real meat and fresh vegetables. Leaves you full and doesn't leave you bloated. Would definitely recommend.

We learned about this made-to-order Chinese Gourmet food eatery in the Milldale section of Southington (off route 322, just up the hill from the truck stop) back in 2016 and have been ordering their food ever since. Not your typical, run-of-the-mill Chinese/Asian eatery where food is greasy and tastes like it came out of a bin or a cardboard box or is frozen and flash-fried in old oil. We never enjoyed Chinese so much! Even their Wonton soup noodles are so fresh and the broth is tasty......not your typical heavy noodle in a broth that tastes like it came out of an instant broth packet! Anna and her husband go out of their way to make sure the food is ready for pick up when you arrive. Definitely worth the trip from anywhere! And worth the wait.....when you call for your order, expect a 45-minute preparation time before your order is ready for pick-up!

Anna and her husband rely on word-of-mouth, which is how we learned about this great Chinese Gourmet restaurant/take-out eatery right off the highway on route 322 in SOUTHINGTON, just up the hill from the truck stop. The freshly-made selections are outstanding! We typically order pork fried rice, hot and sour soup, wonton soup, teriyaki beef skewers, pork spring rolls, shrimp rolls and General Tso's Chicken. Their hours are flexible from 4 pm on and they are closed on Sunday and Monday (disregard the inaccurate listing of hours controlled by fee-greedy IT advertising types!). Forget about cardboard-tasting fast-food Chinese eateries. THIS one is authentic and all food is made to order!

My favorite Chinese food! The food is excellent and fresh. Everything from mixed veggies to specialty entrees are prepared with care. I don't even live in this town anymore and I make special trips just to enjoy the delicious meals.

Its way way way over priced imo but it was good. My local Chinese spots here in new haven and west haven make much better and if the prices were alot more reasonable i would of added another star.

Im a trucker and you better believe that ive tried chinese food from all over the states. Im not exaggerating when i say this is the best chinese food ive had. You can tell the ingredients are hand selected. Meals are made to order. 3 generations of chefs and you can taste the proof. If youre at the TA, dont pass this one up. Doesnt deliver, but worth the 3 min walk.

My favorite Chinese restaurant in the area. Not your standard American Chinese, but authentic, freshly made food. My go to is Peking Pork - absolutely delicious, slightly spicy. I've been ordering for too many years to mention:)

Ordered a Sweet & sour Combo and a small white rice, it came to 17.07, that’s expensive!! The pork fried rice in the combo didn’t have veggies in it so that threw me off a bit. Then the chicken was dark meat and fatty, so fatty that every bite had fat on it. I’ve never had sweet and sour chicken like that and I will never ever go back for more. So disgusted that I threw the whole combo meal in the garbage! I hate throwing food out but it was just disgusting!!

This is by far the best and “cleanest” Chinese food in CT. No greasy mess you get from other places. We highly recommend it.Disregard the negative comments about the owner or service. She is a master at her craft. Watch Seinfield “soup n**** episode and you will understand her lol! Delicious fresh food every time. 5 stars !
