17 Best Chinese Restaurants near Pound Ridge

“This place is the best!! The chicken was very crispy and the sauce was tasty. You could easily tell that the sushi was fresh. I requested the drunken noodles to be extra spicy and they were the perfect amount of spice. I highly recommend Asia Hamachi!“

“Open Rice Poke Bowl is one of my favorite spots in Stamford! The food is always fresh, delicious, and consistently good. I love that the menu offers a variety of options, so there’s truly something for everyone.

Favorites from there are the Thai Curry Noodle Soup, Hibachi, Mongolian beef, pineapple pork fried rice, szechuan dumplings, sushi is very fresh as well! Highly recommend!“

“Seems like a small mom and pop. Really surprised with how good the food was!

I got the sesame chicken lunch special. Really great pork roll, and the sesame chicken was super good.

I do generally like a sweet sesame chicken which is why it was so good!
Definitely worth the money would come anytime!!“

“Have not been here or ordered a LONG time but got take out delivered Saturday. Very happy with 90% of my order. Hot & Sour soup plus Genreal TSO chicken was excellent. Spring rolls & LoMein were great too. Did not care for the Crab ragoon - made in a different way. All arrived quick & hot. I will order again.“

“Always top notch. Alex is awesome, will make your dish to your liking, always fresh. Best around“

“Best chinese food in town, their portations and food quality are all above the notch I usually see. They also don't skimp out anything and make sure to give you all the sauces you can possibly want, even sometimes putting in a small container of sweet and sour sauce. The delivery guy is also very nice and funny.

Thank you for all the good food!“

“Wow actually normal size egg rolls fully filled not big and hollow like other spots
Plus the color of vegis in the fried rice looks and taste fresh boneless ribs perfect I’m from the Bronx and I’ve tried all other Chinese food from Greenwich to Fairfield and this place is the best spot and very nice price is worth it for a great meal“

“Surprisingly good considering the mixed reviews. We've had an excellent lunch special, dinner and take out. Going back tonight - too hot to cook. Reminds me of NYC Szechuan in the 70's, when the food had unique flavor and each dish was different.“

“I like their food. But the more I go there, the more I realize they really need a face-lift. It just doesn't look clean. They shouldn't store their stuff on the front tables either. But, I do like the way their food tastes. Take down those menus up front that look so old. Do some freshening up...please. I want to continue to like it.“

“Nice local spot offering traditional Chinese menu. We ordered Pork Fried Dumplings, and these were flavorful and crisp, as were the Egg Rolls. Our entrees were the Hunan Special, a spicy dish of jumbo shrimp, crab meat, chicken, pork, black mushrooms, and vegetables, and the Happy Family with similar ingredients minus the spicy kick. Both were prepared well and fresh. We opted to dine in, and the tables were clean and well lit.“

“I visited this location for the first time to try out their food. I ordered a small vegetable fried rice and it was quite tasty. The gentleman who prepared the food and took my payment was very nice and appreciative of my business. I will definitely be back to try some other dishes.“

“Eat in or take out the food is always great! Order food to pick up and it is always ready! Friend workers, doesn’t get any better than that 👍“

“Absolutely loved this sushi place! The fish was incredibly fresh, and every bite melted in my mouth. The presentation was beautiful and the portions were generous. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations. The ambiance was cozy and clean—perfect for a casual dinner or a special night out. I highly recommend trying their signature rolls and sashimi. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Tzen is a true hidden gem that delivers an exceptional dining experience once you look past the initial price tag. I avoided visiting because the sales tax is higher at this location, but the build quality of the food and the freshness of the ingredients make up for the added expense. This is a joy lifter of a restaurant where the culinary performance clearly lives up to its claims of being a high-end establishment.
During my visit, I ordered the Mapo tofu as a vegan option, which served as a perfect test for the quality of the vegetables used in the kitchen. The produce was remarkably fresh and well-prepared, showcasing a level of detail often missing from standard fare. While the Szechuan seasoning was not quite as numbing as I desired, this profile is somewhat expected for this region and did not detract from the overall high-quality experience. The flavors were faithful to authentic techniques while remaining accessible, proving that the kitchen team is extremely knowledgeable.
Bottom Line: Tzen offers a sophisticated and flavorful menu that justifies the premium cost through sheer quality. If you are looking for an elevated, authentic vegan meal with fresh, premium ingredients, this is an excellent choice; however, if you are strictly budget-conscious or seeking the intense, numbing heat found in traditional Szechuan provinces, you may find the seasoning and price point a bit deficient for your specific needs. I highly recommend giving this hidden gem a try.“
