Never here before. A few days ago, I got a takeout order. Vegetable chow mein. 5 stars. Well worth the $ 13 price. Hot and Sour soup. 5 stars. Well worth the $ 3 price. Wonton soup. One star. Don't know what happened here but both my wife and I tasted it and then threw it away. The staff is pleasant and ambience is nice. I do plan on going back. I think this will be my primary Asian restaurant. You cannot order online but you can order by phone.

While the ingredients & serving size were good the flavorings & sauces that make the dish, Asian were bland & less than ordinary.

Food is always very good. Service can come off as rude. But food is always fantastic and the restaurant is always clean.

Definitely the best, most authentic Chinese restaurant in the metro Dayton area for over 30 years. Friendly service! Try the Cottage Chicken and Rock Salt Prawns.

Seriously, ignore the one-off, bad reviews of this place. China Cottage must have seriously upped their game!!The food is fresh and delicious, the service was quick, kind, and accommodating, the atmosphere is cozy and well-themed.Most of the bad reviews focused on one single bad experience, or one bad waitress. But they must've changed because I haven't experienced either, and quite the opposite!GREAT Chinese restaurant here! I'd bet that you won't be disappointed.

I usually love the rock salt prawns. I was not happy with the dish because it was changed. The shrimp is a lot smaller and less the broccoli was way less I won’t be getting this dish any longer due to this. I love the China Cottage always have.

My wife and I went for the first time tonight and we were absolutely blown away by how incredible our server was. She was busting her tail! The food was so delicious and the atmosphere is perfect.My wife got the sesame tofu, spring rolls, and a beer. I got the sesame chicken, marinated meat sticks, and hot sake. All of it was incredible. Also, the rice was probably the best I’ve had in a decade.Go here!!Vegetarian options: My wife who’s a vegetarian got the sesame tofu and spring rolls. She absolutely loved them!

We have been eating here for 34 years. Best Chinese food anywhere! It’s even better than China Town in San Francisco!!

Great service during one of the busiest days of the year for restaurants. We sat at the bar and got take out and my partner had a Chinese beer while we waited. The food is spectacular, fresh meat and vegetables. Crab Rangoon is authentic tasting, not frozen and not too sweet. Great place, will be back again for sure.

China Cottage has delicious crab rangoon and a very extensive menu. Not a long wait for take out either.
