This is a sorry excuse for a Chinese restaurant. We walked in at 6 pm and all of the tables except two were empty. Their eggrolls were frozen and nuked and their soup was watered down...disgusting!
They wanted to charge for noodles with the soup.
Don't waste your money here...seriously.

Got takeout beef chow mein. Opened up my container and it looked like somebody had just eaten the food and threw it up into the to go box. Beef was grey. Everything was greenish-grey. Drowned in a grey liquid to boot. Absolutely disgusting and immediately killed my appetite. The chow mein wasn't even chow mein- it completely lacked stir fry noodles. I can't speak on the service of the place as I didn't dine in, but the appaling appearance of the takeout food is enough for me to stay away. I immediately threw it out. YUCK!

We went to this restaurant because somebody reviewed it as the best Chinese food in Boothbay. We walked out without eating because it was the worst Chinese food we’ve ever had anywhere.

You place a order thinking it’s going to be the price on the menu online $26.95 for a pupu two and $8.75 for Lo mein and get to pick it up and it’s over $50 and they say well they don’t use the menu online anymore but don’t care to upgrade it

Service was great and friendly. Food and drink was very satisfying. The atmosphere was very friendly and local favorite type of place. Everyone seemed to know each other. Except me, not a local. They made you feel like one though. Great experience ?

Absolutely love China by the sea. I don’t usually like any other Chinese places crabragoons, China by the sea has the best.

Parking: Could be beneficial to have a bigger parking lot it’s a tight squeeze sometimes.

Very very good good. The service was not very good, but the quality of the food made up for that. Dining room was a bit small but made for a cozy experience.

We enjoyed the spring rolls, lo mein with vegetables, and vegetables in a garlic sauce (added cashews). Beautiful dining space
