12 Best Chinese Restaurants near Lewiston

“Ok, first of all, I have never been unhappy when dining here. Much depends on when customers come to eat; when the food is fresh for lunch or dinner, those are the best times. The family who own the Buffet are very conscientious about presentation, cleanliness, service, etc. The family/employees become really bothered when customers take so much food from the buffet, then waste it, which can cause price hikes. I personally know the owners and they are fantastic folks who are established in Lewiston, work hard to please and have bills and taxes to pay like everybody else. There have been instances where customers have not offered constructive criticism, but who have been down right mean and judgmental toward the family of employees. Prices also tend to increase when customers are slobs, who trash their booths/tables. So, folks, as we honor those who work so hard to continue to feed us, let's consider how we come across when we are not satisfied. Let's refrain from stereotyping folks who don't look like us, who are working to provide for their families by inviting us to participate as paying customers. Not everyone will always be pleased-- and there are legitimate times where someone won't be satisfied for what every reason. Let's be kind. If the Mandarin Buffet is not good for what ever reason, politely tell someone, that's all. We don't need to make spectacles of ourselves in the restaurant just to prove how right or unsatisfied we are. Thank you!“

“Best Chinese food around.“

“Order from South Sea for the first time yesterday and we are impressed with the quality and quantity of food - excellent rice, lo mein, and boneless ribs. Will order again. Top marks!“

“This is my new favorite place. I had just gotten home from work and was about to cook myself dinner but my power went out, in fact this outage affected 1000+ Auburn residents. So since I was starving I drove around looking for a hot meal. I found this place. The service was prompt, I got veggie dumplings, fried shrimp and chicken Pad Thai. The man behind the counter was so nice, I told him why I was driving around looking for food and he was super kind. He gave me homemade dipping sauce for free, we had a good conversation. The food was very good and affordable! I'm definitely going back.“

“We tryed almost every place from Auburn to brunswick since we moved 2years ago we have finally found the place food was great tons of flavor and the portions were huge.

“Very lovely restaurant better than expected. Service was very fast and efficient. Too bad they don’t do dine in anymore but their take out quality has remained amazing. I ordered the D20, it was so much food for only $12 can’t beat that in this economy.“

“Quality food, great atmosphere! Highly recommend.“

“Visiting the area from Waterville area, was impressed with the veggies in the dishes.. perfect crispness and flavor! The ice cream selection covered everyone’s taste! The price was good too for dinner for a family of four, under $70! They were prompt to remove dishes and refill water. A local friend popped in to say hi to us after work..not ordering food and they even offered him and glass of water and allowed him to join our table which we appreciated. Seemed very family friendly!“

“Food was great and everything was delicious. Had sesame chicken, and rice noodles with vegetables and was best we had had.“

“We love it here ! The best food & even better employees 🤗“

“Definitely the best Chinese food around Auburn. I have no idea why there are any bad reviews at all. It tastes like the old Peking restaurant in North Conway years ago, and similar to chopsticks in Lewiston when they were opened. Everything was hot, it was inexpensive and like I said after trying everywhere around Lewiston Auburn this is by the far the best Chinese food!“
