This is the first time I've been to this restaurant in a long time, like over 10 years. I went with my girlfriend and another couple. We split about six plates for various common chinese foods. The food was very good and the waitress was very attentive. I was extremely surprised how few people where there on a Friday night. I'd recommend this place to anyone. read more

Pretty Good Chinese. There are a number of Chinese Restaurants in Manchester area that are just horrible. Cheng Yang Li is not one of them. I've had several good meals here. I'll be back for sure. read more

Lettuce wraps are excellent, the General Tsao is tasty and the decor is decent.

The food may be decent, but the cashier is rude. She made me feel like an a**hole for asking what kinds of vegetables are in the chicken with garlic sauce dish. She said "I don't see the food, I just ring it up". Seriously, what a biatch. From the looks of her, she does a lot more than just "ringing up" the food. My total was $11.94. I gave her $20 cash, and when she went to give me the change ($8.06), she asked me if I needed the penny or do I just want the nickel. What the hell?? Just give me my change!!!!!!!! I said "whatever is easiest for you". She gave me all of the change. I found that whole thing very strange. Who does that???? read more

Not too bad. When it comes to Chinese food (and CA) I have had some pretty good Chinese food and this doesn't beat any in CA. The spicy dishes weren't to spicy and the flavor just wasn't there as much as it should have been. The atmoshere isn't bad and the service was just alright. Maybe I have higher standards when it comes to Chinese food since we have a few great places in CA . The food wasn't horrible at all, just lacked something I usually expect in Chinese food. Overall, the atmosphere was nice (though no booths), the service was a bit below and the food wasn't fabulous but not horrible so I would grade it a B- . I'd try it again and hope for better results. read more

Had a really good lunch here today. We ordered some fried noodle thing that was HUGE and the 3 style chicken, which was...three different chicken dishes, on one big plate. It was all very good. We also asked for fried dumplings and were given steamed, but...not a particularly huge disaster. I'd be back, if it was near anything I care about. read more

Came here for the first time with some co-workers during lunchtime on a friday. It was a very nice room, and they quickly seated us. We came in for our usual friday Sushi fest, which we try different restaurants every week. Since this is what we came in for, we asked if there were any sushi specials for lunch.. Nope... Ok, no big deal. The waitress seemed to want to rush our order, there were 5 of us. So i tried the sushi (Spicy tuna roll) and some pork lo mein. It came with Soup which was ok... The lo mein was ok, not totally impressed, have had better at Dive Chinese take out places.. The sushi was very spicy, not complaining, and very fresh.. Not sure if i'd go back.. Seems like overkill and over priced for what they offer... read more

When you have a great place to eat in your town sometimes you forget and go looking in near by towns. Well that is how it is with CYL with us. We went last night and Kim was a beautiful and friendly as ever. The Mai Tais were perfect and the food is GREAT!Tried a new beef dish and Kim siad it might be hot. It was but very authentic. You cannot go wrong!! read more

I took my wife here and we were dissapointed. Their Chinese food is so americanized. Everything tasted sweettttttttttttt. Man I just might get diabetes after walking out. Friedrice was hard and overcooked. How can you overcook a freakin Friedrice. Go to boston to eat your chinese food folks. One other decent chinese place is North Garden in N.H. but still not as good as Chinese food in BoSTON. read more

This was a wonderful experience. The food was incredibly fresh and the service was friendly and kind. The restaurant itself is no less than beautiful. They offer a wide selection of gluten free options. I highly recommend. read more

I dig me some Chen Yang Li- really the only sushi that I'll 'trust' here in NH. Quick and tasty. The appetizers are great too!

Decent and delicious food in a nice setting. The service was great. We loved the chicken and broccoli and the spring rolls.

My husband and I have been ordering from Cheng Yang Li since we moved to the area a couple years ago. Their food is always good, and available about 15 minutes after calling in. We always get their pork fried rice, general gsao (not sure how you spell it), peeking ravioli and schezaun (again with spelling) dumplings. All excellent. We always get free crap Rangoon too (SOoo good) for spending more than $30. The place is a tad pricey but we keep going back because it is delicious. read more

Walked in, sat at the bar & waited for 10 minutes but nobody came around to ask if we wanted to order, needed a drink, or bring us menus. There was another fellow there too, looks like he submitted a take out order. Hostesses looked at my wife, didn't offer assistance, so we left. Place didn't appear busy so not sure where everyone was hiding. read more

Great Seafood Hot and Sour Soup. Nice, hot Pupu platter. A good meal.

Got takeout from this location and was highly disappointed. Everything in the pupu platter was extremely bland and lacking in flavor. The beef fried rice was disgusting.. soggy and not crispy whatsoever and no bean sprouts in it. Just blah overall. The location on Amherst St is much better. Should have stuck with Xing Wang in Merrimack or Chen's Garden in Manch. read more

Good food. What i had was by no means amazing, but it was solid, good quality food. I got take out, but when I went in, it was a nice atmosphere. I would come here again. read more

Best gourmet Chinese food around. Plenty of food or the moneyThe staff is very attentive and friendly. The Mai Tai's are a must try! Even if you don't like Mai Tai's. They will make any selection into a vegetarian or even a gluten free meal! There is a good wine selection too. read more

This place is pretty good. I LOVE their Black Bean Chicken dish and it is what I usually order. Can't get enough of this! Have had the Mango chicken as well, which is also good. I like the pickled items that they give as a bit of a snack before you get your food, it is good if you are into that. Their scallion pancakes are good, although I'm not overly fond of the sauce that they provide to dip it into. read more

I had hear a lot of good things about this place from friends who frequent it. The reputation was not lived up to during my first visit there. The PuPu platter for two was very weak; only two of everything when other establishments give generous amounts to please healthy appetites. The crab rangoon was cold internally, the chicken fingers were dry. The area were we were seated was devoid of ambiance. Only a well mixed Scorpion bowl saved the entire meal. Granted, it was a Monday night and slow, but I will not be going back any time soon. There are other places closer that are much better. I expected more. read more

Ordered take out sushi, wonton soup and Lo Mein. Tuna in the tuna roll was brown and definitely not fresh, salmon did not look fresh and had a dry oily appearance. The rice on the rolls was dry and fell off the rolls when attempting to pick up with chop sticks. Needless to say; wouldn't feed it to the cat. Lo Mein didn't have any flavor and had to doctor it up a bit. Won't be ordering from them again and will stick with Chen Garden. read more

Food is always consistent. Everything is delicious. They have the best wonton soup. Prices are in line with every other restaurant. The amount of food you get is insane! I always get enough food for at least two meals! I prefer the Bedford restaurant. I went to Nashua years ago and wasn't impressed and have never been back. I have never tried the Bow location. read more

Just lunch there today . It was wonderful and it is really a great place for lunch .. They even deliver so I will use that service. Food is simply wonderful and my favorite Chinese rest ever! read more

We used to go here but the last few times going there the food wasn't very good and the last time we went we got sick from whatever they were cooking that night. Save your money, go somewhere else !!! read more

I went a few times recently once for dine in and once for takeout. On my dine in experience with my family I would rate the food as fair-good and the service was poor. The wait staff can at times be arrogant and unfriendly. For my more recent takeout visit the cashier was friendly and thanked me by name which was unexpected and nice. However, one of the items I ordered fried rice was very poor quality and tasted terrible. The vegetables were so overcooked and dried out that it seemed like they had been reheated several times. None of the ingredients seemed fresh. Sadly, I have noticed the quality of the food there seems to be declining from what they used to to serve a few years back. There is no doubt that if my next experience is not better we will not be returning. read more

Chicken Fingers were dry and boneless spareribs had no taste. Got the food for takeout, might have been reason for tasteless food. Also lady who runs it not happy to get extra hot mustard if you ask for it. Ate inside once and was actually good . Ribs and chicken fingers forget about it . read more

The Chen Yang Li in Nashua is by far my favorite place for Chinese food and sushi. I thought this restaurant was affiliated with the Nashua location and so I was hesitant to review it poorly and possibly hurt the Nashua restaurant. I've since learned that they are unaffiliated so now I feel better about posting this. The food was cold, dry and the portions were small. Our take out order took twice as long as we were told. The hostess was rude and snooty. I never give up on a place after one visit. Hopefully someday I'll be reviewing a better experience. read more

Best Chinese food out there. The batter is always paper thin and the food is ALWAYS fresh. Every dish is better than the next. Absolutely love this place. read more

Love this place! Such good food! The tangerine chicken is incredible, and the staff is always friendly! Will definitely be going back again and again!! read more

This place serves the WORST Chinese food that I have ever eaten. We ordered fried wantons, vegetable lo mein, and chicken with garlic sauce (extra, extra, extra spicy). The wantons tasted like a chewy piece of gristle, the vegetable lo mein had aboslutely no flavor, and all we could taste in the garlic chicken was the over-powering flavor of disgusting "5-spice", which is a combination of cinamon,clove, anise, ginger and nutmeg. The service was fine, but when we complained about the food we were only offered a replacement dish. After having 3 terrible dishes, we did not have any reason to think any other dishes would be better. We will not go back to this establishment. read more

The food is not as good as it use to be. We do not eat here anymore. Last Christmas eve we purchased food for takeout and we drove there from Laconia snd the food was terrible. Since then we do not go back. The women that I ordered the food from was rude on the phone, not friendly at all. read more

I've been here for several events, both business and personal and I really like the place. The food is good and the service is friendly and attentive. Heartily recommended read more

Delicious gluten free appetizers, dishes & even dessert! Lovely service & atmosphere too!

Great food ambiance and service. Fun place to savor good Asian dishes.

This place is...fine, I guess. There is nothing to hate here, but nothing to love either. I am pretty new to the area and have gone several times, hoping that this place could be my "go-to" Chinese food spot. While I suppose, up until now, it is, I am not in any way impressed with it. The service is fine -- not good, but not horrible. The appetizers have always been good. I've had egg rolls, coconut shrimp, crab rangoon, all of which were quite tasty. The main meals, however, have been far from exceptional. I have gone and ordered the General Tso's chicken twice because that is my favorite Chinese dish, but it was good neither time. Again, it fits the same formula -- not horrible, but still not good. I only wish I knew a good Chinese place to go to in the area. I feel stuck going here, even though I don't really like it. read more

This is by far the best Chinese food in the state. The service is absolutely amazing. The wait staff and the owner Kim are wonderful and a delight to spend time with while eating there. Last night, I had the Singapore Chicken dish (new to the menu), and it is now my new favorite. It was amazing. Their Mai Tai's are amazing too. My husband and I are self proclaimed foodies and we are in love with this place. We will never again go to another Chinese Food Restaurant in the state. read more

I have been a customer for 5 yrs as well as for business functions the past year the service has been TERRIBLE. STAFF IS RUDE and the order has been wrong on every attempt. they charge 3.00 just for coming across the street and if you have an office order with different cards they charge the fee on each card.. they take advantage of people and JUST HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. our business and personally will never be customers again after today's treatment.we use to love and think this was the best place around and would tell everyone..what a true disappointment this place has become! read more

What a mistake stopping in here to eat!!!! Got the Salmon ginger and veggies with brown rice. Rice DRY & hard. Salmon over cooked, veggies hard. Ginger sauce lacking ginger. Well ate half the meal and had a cocktail then went to the restroom. I come back to the table and find my napkin in my food. I remove the napkin and find a receipt in the food. I ask the waiter what is this?????? He apologizes and said he will make me another dish. I said OK and I will take it to go. Well I get home and open the container and find the LEFTOVERS in a to go tray. WHAT THE HELL, I was HAD. NEVER WILL RETURN TO CHEN YANG LI. And the décor is all over the place.....1980's art deco!....sucks. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!! read more

Great gluten-free options. Woohoo!!!! We always get take out when we visit my dad. The lunch specials are extremely generous in portion---they are equal in size to what we get as dinner specials in our hometown (at half the price when you factor in the extras they come with). We always have leftovers for the next day. The gluten-free option is a HUGE treat for me. We love the general gau's chicken and the miso soup. Even the white rice is always tender and not dried out. The service is always fast (10 minutes!) and the food is always HOT. Nice that the soup is still steaming when we arrive home. They even package it well. One day we got an order for 10, and everything was still hot, with no errors. LOVE IT! read more

Very delicious food. An outstanding selection of gluten free options. Wait staff very knowledgeable about ingredients in prepared foods.
