The food is great with tremendous portions. low prices as well. Service is quick and friendly.

I stopped in for lunch on Labor Day and it was very good. The service was swift and very polite. Ambiance in the dining room was what you would expect from a Chinese restaurant right down to the plates. I ordered the Crab Rangoon which was perfectly cooked with a crispy outer shell and delicious gooey crab sauce in the middle with a bowl of sweet and sour sauce, so good. My entree was chicken chow mein W/ white rice. It came out hot and was very delicious. read more

True Score- 2.8/5 Stars After a tough week, and moving back to Hamilton, we decided to order some Asian style cuisine. Asian Lantern is a small, yet awesome restaurant. Unfortunately, for me, the food just wasn't as good as the building. (Forgot to take pics so sorry for the bad one attached) I ordered the General Tso's combo with white rice, and my fiancè ordered the Orange chicken combo, but subbed the rice for lo mein noodles. Both orders of chicken suffered the same- just not enough flavor. The chicken itself is cooked VERY well, and is meaty and tender. The breading is also firm and hardly with any bristle. The problem is, the sauce just wasn't flavorful on each dish. The flavor was too faint for us. The lo mein noodles were also very bland, and pretty dry. The combos with the lo mein substitute and a can of dr pepper ran me about 21 dollars on takeout, so no tax. I'm all for supporting a local business, but the food just did not justify the price. Although, I don't think the pricing is absurd or anything. Service was great. The guy working the register was very sociable and my food was packaged very, very neatly. Facilities are the best part. Ample seating, and LOOKED clean. I got takeout, so I am not certain. Also, the sign says you can BYOB, so thats dope. I think coming here on a weeknight with some buddies to sit and hang would be ideal. Overall, pretty average. Wasn't blown away, but I would definitely give it another shot. I would describe the food as serviceable, and it really has potential to be a great little restaurant. Support small businesses, people!

Went here for lunch. Great prices and wonderful service nice atmosphere too. The Szechuan chicken was good. Egg roll was delicious and the fried rice was tasty the hit and sour soup needed to be a bit more spicy to my liking. Don't be fooled by the area. The inside was nice. No liquor but you can bring wine and beer in according to a sign they posted. read more

Food is consistently good, particularly for its price point. It's a smaller restaurant but it's everything I want out of a Chinese place. Service is great and food is in and out quick for takeout. read more

This location has been under different management off and on for years but has always looked almost exactly the same. I like the building. Probably part of that is nostalgia. The service is really the best you could ask for. It's a quiet spot that's a little dark and intimate. I love that they offer so many vegetarian and vegan options. Hamilton doesn't have a ton of that stuff available. But the food fell a little flat for me. It took me three trips to figure out what was weird and that was it. It's not spicy hot at all. I understand not everyone wants spicy and they're probably trying to appeal to the population of the area. I don't like too much spice, either, but it felt odd. I had the sesame tofu and two other noodle dishes over my visits here but nothing has hit me right yet. I'll continue to try things, though. I have a frequent buyer card, I'll user it. read more

Very good food. Nice atmosphere. Had the combo plates and took food home. Fair prices. They are waiting on a liquor license but you can bring your own. Good service too. read more

You've got to give them a try. I had a hard time finding a current menu online but a call to the restaurant and they texted one to me. We tried a Combo Pad Thai and Chicken Lo Mein. The Pad Thai was a perfect "medium" heat and had that great sweet/savory/peanut taste you crave with Pad Thai. The Lo Mein has tender noodles and a delicious sauce that is one of the best I've had. Like I said you gotta give them a try - great food at reasonable prices! read more

It's been a very long time since I've been here. It was fabulous! Entrees we're very good (cashew chicken and combo fried rice) but the egg rolls and crab Rangoon were out of this world. Great service and very quick. This will be my go-to in Hamilton for Chinese, I want to try the whole menu. read more

What a delightful little place! I am so glad my daughter was craving Chinese food and this place was right down the road from us. The inside was so pleasant and inviting....and peaceful. The hostess/server was so friendly and welcoming. The music was perfect. And the food tasted like it was made with love. We left feeling full and happy and peaceful. I can't wait to go back! You can't order take out from this place....you HAVE to go inside and enjoy your food in this setting! read more

The wife and I went last night for dinner after having carry out lunch earlier in the week. First time since new ownership and the meal was every bit as good as before the change. The most amazing thing was the 2 servers whom I assume were the owners children. FANTASTIC SERVICE! I was so impressed that I left 50% tip. read more

I have never written a review before but I hate to waste money! This restaurant was the worst Chinese food I have ever had. We ordered take out for my daughter's birthday. Not only did we wait 40 minutes for our food, but (once home) found out one lid was not on our food so it spilled everywhere, they forgot our egg rolls and the crab rangoons were burnt. Oh yeah, it gets worse. The fifty dollars worth of food that we ordered was so poorly cooked that we threw it away. I have never had an experience like that when getting take out somewhere. So incredibly disappointing! I am not one to bash on a restaurant but this food was inedible. We will never go there again. read more
