    Absolutely fresh & delicious!! I can't eat anyone else's fried rice after having theirs....so good.
    It's a bit of a ride for food, but I find myself planning my errands around being in the neighborhood. Each time I've gone, I've tried something new. With the house fried rice, of course.
    I ALWAYS hesitate to order my absolute favorite dish, shrimp in lobster sauce....and they did NOT disappoint!!

    This was our first time coming here and it was very good!  Service started out a bit slow, felt like we were invisible, but eventually the waiter spotted us and came right over and was very attentive from that point on.  the food came out very quickly, it was nice and hot and everything was very tasty.  We started with a Wonton Soup & a Hot & Sour Soup, both were very flavorful and hot!  We then had Crab Rangoons (very good) and Egg Rolls (also, very good).  For the entree's I went with Shrimp Lo Mein and my husband had the Shrimp with Szechuan Sauce.  The Lo Mein was very good, though the shrimp were VERY small, and my husband really enjoyed the Szechuan shrimp, he just wished it had been served with white rice because it was very watery without and the juices just ran all over the empty looking plate that he scooped it into.

    I really, really, really love this place! A good amount of vegetarian options and friendly staff. The decor rules, too! I always have a blast here and they are very family friendly. Also, check out the owner - it's not a stretch to say that he's very much responsible for the revitalization of Pawtucket and Central Falls.

    Personal favorites: scallion pancakes and Buddha's Delight. I wish they would bring back the steamed vegetarian dumplings!!!

    This is my 2nd time visiting this place and the food is good BUT the Service is 10x better! I have honestly never received such good customer service like this before!

    And the scorpion bowls are STRONG! But well balanced/mixed . Will definitely be coming back

    Went to China Inn on a Groupon coupon. Was shocked to see 18% added to the bill as a "service charge". I assumed it was the gratuity but my waiter told me that he gets 8% and the house gets 10%. When we finally found the Restaurant we walked in it was totally empty. It was early on a Saturday. There was an odor Like a musty odor. Now onto the food. I must say they give you a lot but after reading all the reviews I expected a wonderful meal. The food was bland. I ordered Nam chow  it was really bland. Our waiter was very attentive. I would not make a special trip to go back.
