This is always a restaurant we stop at on our yearly girls trip North. It never disappoints. Many of us order the same dish every year because we enjoy it and do not live nearby. I enjoyed my dinner along with everyone else. Clean tables, attentive waitress and easy to find and has plenty of parking makes it a must try read more

One of the best chinese restaurants in Nashua! Would highly recommend them. My experiences have been very good.

Last nights food of coconut shrimp and vegetable fried rice was not appetizing at all the worse part the man yelling at because of his hurt pride. Then he hung up. I'm so disappointed read more

Why we keep subjecting ourselves by going back is beyond me.... we went last night and Paul was the bartender... you would think by now at his age he would know how to manage the bar but nope! Everyone was pretty much laughing because we were all in the same boat at the bar. First off he picked and chose who to give a real menu to vs the paper take out menu, we all made him give us the real menu, secondly we needed to call him over for everything we needed from drinks to our food, and it wasn't really that busy but to be fair he had no servers running food to him but again, not that busy, it was the strangest experience and we won't be back EVER! He never even offered us second drinks, so we packed up and left, we gave him 10% tip.. People need to start tipping again on service vs just automatically giving over 20%, this is the only way to change this behavior in servers! This girl will be at Sun Shui, Zhongs, Surf and YOU YOU... bye bye chen Li 4 ever read more

If I could rate negative stars I would...after a long week of work my bf decided to treat me for dinner so I didn't have to cook. This is soooo very rare for us lately. I have a severe gluten allergy and It makes it very nerve wracking to go out to eat or trust anyone to prepare my food. With there menu advertising so many gluten free options and Chinese food not being something I cook at home as often he chose this restaurant. Even though it's a bit from home we decided it was worth the trip. The waitress seemed to take my allergy seriously from the start when my food was placed down it was announced as gluten free. I took 2 bites and the waitress came running back pulling the plate from under me to say oh boy I'm not sure...spitting it out immediately didn't matter I'm home and severely ill and I will be suffering side effects for weeks. No establishment should advertise gluten free if they are unable to take it seriously nor when we question even after they announced are you sure because the allergy is severe we are disregarded with a yes to find out it was in fact not safe for me to eat. read more

Their food is always prepared and plated well and their servers are friendly and attentive. We typically order the crab rangoon or salt and pepper calamari as an appetizer; both are delicious. Their entrees are all very good. We have never been disappointed with any of their noodle, sushi, rice or Chinese dishes. Highly recommend. read more

Ordered 3 things only got 2. Once we found out we were 20 mins away and they wouldn't refund the card for the missing item. The soup my friend got was extremely bland and barely any flavor. Not impressed. Inside was okay but busy and confusing the way it was set up, waiting for pick up orders. read more

Absolute worst service I have ever seen. Waited 25 mins for a drink twice . Asked to put football game on bartender pretended to change channel and didn't change it. Finally did put on wheel of fortune instead of football. Talked to owner he didn't care or want to hear it. Terrible . Worst service ever not even busy. Because I was a single got ignored for one party of six. Crazy. I was waiting to out in an order too. Oh well had to go elsewhere for food. My rating is zero read more

Foods great, but management seems very busy and somewhat cold. Service is spotty. However, the food is excellent, I do take out.

Best Chinese food around, Good service polite staff average pricing. I would highly recommend.

On the east coast for a visit and while up in the granite state and I figured I'd try this old "regular neighborhood" Chinese place for lunch. When I lived in the area, would stop by once in awhile and while it was "OK" it was never spectacular or even noteworthy. Usually just a place to stop for some American style Chinese food and some nondescript sushi. I guess today was no exception. The typical Chinese specials were if I remember, around $11.00 .Probably overpriced but since I don't live around here, can't really Judge. The sushi lunch specials selection was pretty paltry, so I passed on that and ordered steamed tofu and vegetables for my meal. Got a small bowl of wonton soup, which at least was hot. The fried rice was certainly not like I'm used to from the authentic places on the west coast and Nevada. The rice looked liked it was soaked in soy sauce , but was still pretty tasteless. The tofu looked like it was "raw" not steamed and the veggies were a decent amount of broccoli and snow peas with three (count 'em) slices of mushrooms. The dish was not served in a sauce, but rather with a small ramekin of a soy mixture on the side. Maybe I should have read the menu more carefully but I guess I was expecting a different style of prep and presentation. I mean it was Ok, but thats all I could say about it, just Ok. Service was decent.The female server (number 8) was friendly. Didn't bother to ask about a military discount. Will I be back? Probably not unless I'm really strapped for lunch. read more

Chen Yang Li - Steamed Tofu and veggie fried rice. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Nashua, New Hampshire

My wife and I just got back from over 12 months of touring the country and one of things we really missed was quality Chinese food. We hit up Chan Yang Li today only three hours after arriving home. Have to admit, it was pretty disappointing. We started with two Mai Tais, which was a mystery mix poured out of a plastic vinegar jug, then topped off with what we thought was liquor. The drinks just had a strange taste, possibly from fruit juice in the mix that wasn't fresh. They also tasted very weak. For dinner, we ordered a pu pu platter for two and a combination fried rice. The fried items on the platter were fresh and hot, even the egg rolls, but the beef teriyaki and the boneless ribs were both cold. When we mentioned it to the server, she basically just said sorry, some items are cooked first and cool off while the other items are being cooked. Funny, I've never encountered this at other restaurants, Chinese or otherwise. When I asked if they had heat lamps in the kitchen she said they used to have them, but they either don't work anymore or they just don't use them. This is absolutely ridiculous and no one there seems to care. The server didn't even mention it to a manager. No problems with the fried rice, it was served hot and tasted great. Given their lack of pride in what they're serving, we'll definitely be visiting the many other options in the area when we're in the mood for Chinese food read more

Sat down and couldn't order my drink for 15 minutes. Tried to order my food for half hour and the bartender took three other orders and couldn't wait on us. Horrible service from Paul . We had to to tell him what we ordered many times and it seemed like he did not know the menu. GET RID OF PAUL!!!! read more

Good Chinese food. Went on a Saturday evening; service was excellent and non-invasive. Food was served alarmingly fast! Good ambience; almost upscale compared to other similar restaurants. Good restaurant for families, dates, friends. Busy bar scene looked fun! read more

Yet another trip back home to New England from Myrtle Beach and Chinese is ALWAYS on my mind. You people here are privileged to have great Chinese food wherever you choose to get it! Not the same down South. So enjoy and celebrate it! Chen Yang Li delivers a great arrangement of typical Chinese fare in a great dining experience along with table cloths! Tonight we had a party of 10 and everything came to the table hot and delicious. Our server, Dave was definitely earning his tip! We racked up a $400 check before we was full. What a great dining experience we had. Only wish there was a bit more bourbon selection to choose from....but I'm here for the pu pu platter and fried rice so HOMERUN!!! read more

Really disappointed this time. I have been to this restaurant many times and always had good quality Chinese food and sushi. Went for lunch yesterday with a coupon - $5.00 off a $40.00 meal. The bored irritated waitress came back to say the meal was only $39 and change so I could not use the coupon. I told her I was getting chicken wings to go, so she walked over to her boss (who has never looked very happy or welcoming) and we could hear him complaining about the coupon. Too bad dude, we came in for lunch because of the coupon. Be glad you got business from it! So the food was not good at all. meal was tasteless and dry. Rice was the highlight of the meal. I'm not sure if they precook for lunch and let it sit or what, but not up to par at all. We will go to Haluwa next time read more

After reading many reviews I feel like I visited a different t place. The food was fresh and really tasty. We ordered pork fiend rice (fresh as can be chocked full of veggies and sprouts) the dish called Amazing chicken which lived up to its name so tasty and different and I asked for it to not be to Spivey which they obliged, chicken wings which were large, and the filled up to the brim Crab Rangoons. Service was rushed but hey it wasn't offensive. And overall an amazing eating and Flavor experience. read more

Well I have to say that I have been here around a dozen times and have never been disappointed. I usually get the General Tso chicken, and my wife usually gets the Two brother's shrimp. These accompanied by the excellent egg rolls are your next step the heaven! Frank and Kimy run a good place, and it is great to see a restaurant that actually puts alcohol in your glass when you order a drink!!!!!!! Highly recommended for food , service and Ambiance. The dining room is quite nicely decorated and is a unique design. read more

I'm allegories to ***shrimp*** which the chef added shrimp instead of clams (sold out) to my soup ingredients. The restaurant *never*communicated with me as the customer they changed the soup items. The restaurant refused to refund my soup $17.95. Terrible place. read more

Chen Yang Li - a platter of sushi and rolls - Sushi Bars Near Me - Nashua, New Hampshire

First off, let me start by saying my family and I only ate here because we stopped in for a quick bite after shopping at Hobby Lobby. This will be our first and last. This establishment is basically your basic average Chinese food served on fancy dinnerware to make it look expensive. I personally thought it was overpriced but hey we were already seated and hungry so why not. Then the woman server comes over and I started to have second thoughts. Her body odor was off the walls! I couldn't get myself to tell her cause that would be kinda mean right? Anywho, food was mediocre we took some boxes to go and she brings the bill. I went to the bathroom and came back to this woman harassing my husband demanding a 15% tip like who are you? We tip her close to $10 and she wasn't happy. This is the first time something like this has happen to us. He was kinda caught off guard and was like you know what if you really want a tip here's $15. What I wanted to do was give her a real tip though... go buy yourself some deodorant!!! read more

Food= always been pretty good Ambiance= always pleasant *Service = mostly good * except for today.. recently my wife was confirmed as legally blind. She asked server about lunch special and what is comes with. my wife did not understand her answer and asked again what the soups were. this server got upset raised her voice pointed to the menu and said right there can you see? My wife being the kind person she is said, well no I can't see thats why Im asking you. This server proceeded to say, Right there Right there, you see? My wife told her to give her any soup. People were watching. Management did nothing. My wife went to ladies room in tears..and will never, ever ever go back there again. My wife will get over it, this is all new to her. The server, maybe she had her own thing going on. Kindness doesn't cost anything especially if it's how you make your income. read more

we left a tip and they chased us out into the parking lot requesting more money for the tip terrible service

Thank you Mike and Joe for having me banned and having your bartender Dany hand down the orders, what's a matter Mike you afraid of American women complaining about your sucky establishment. I have been thrown out of better establishments . Nobody wants to eat food that tastes 3 days old and pay for doctored food to look like more expensive. Your service is also mediocre. read more

Good customer service the food delicious not greasy very healthy the sushi's very fresh yummmmm I like all the food

Never eaten in here, just gotten delivery. I like that you can order online directly from their website. They've never gotten my order wrong, and the food always arrives in short order, piping hot. Standard Chinese faire, though I wish they had chow fun. The ingredients are fresh and cooked correctly, unlike many other similar establishments in the area that overcook until broccoli is yellow and beef is shoe leather. Lunch specials are a good value for the amount of food received, mum and I can split one and both be full. read more

I ordered the Beef and Broccoli and I was very disappointed. It had no taste and gravy was drippings from the steak.

Chen Yang Li had been our go to place. Good food, great mai tais (if you like them on the stronger side). Over our last few visits the food is not as good. Not bad but not at their previous level. Service at the bar can be spotty and bartenders seem indifferent unless it's a regular. read more

bday dinner- party of 8 at 7:30pm on a Monday - at 9:37pm the bartender told us they were closed - we spent almost 500.00 for them to tell us to get out 7 minutes after closing time. Food was good but man, it's Monday so we know it's not a party night. it could have been done with more class. We are a family of 6 which means 6 bdays a year at 500.00 a bday.... we can find good food and a better staff in the area. read more

First time ordering gave my name number when called in, that was asked of me. Walked in to pick up in 5 to 10 as what was said. It's not ready which wasn't the problem his total asshole attitude talking to me like a drill Sargeant demanding number when I didn't have the store number off hand, yelling at me and I said my name is Angie, still yelling food not ready still , I decided to get money back he said GOOD I HAPPY, GOOD BYE...broken English. Probably would of spit in my food.Does anyone remember Seinfeld episode, no soup for you! I'm laughing now but I wasn't earlier, I could never trust front desk bad behavior not called for, what are you gonna do to my food angry bird? read more

Ordered COVID-19 chinese take-out as a recommendation by my mother-in-law. I really enjoyed all the food it was hot and fresh. The restaurant has great COVID-19 precautions when I picked up my order they have plexiglass and have your food waiting for you. Thanks guys for the great food and care. I will definitely order again. See the pics i posted :) Stay safe out there ya'll! read more

Food is decent , service is horrible. Very rude servers and owner . They don't treat their customers well

Food was not authentic sushi had a chewy flavor ask for condiments and waitress brought them at the end of the meal and was not work a 18% tip traveling the USA and this restaurant not work the price and management came and complained about a low percentage tip and he came up to our table and complained for a tip that we paid our meal and still left a reasonable tip for the service we got and the food taste would not recommend it read more

I love this place! The drinks are very good and strong and the sushi is extremely fresh, the staff is always friendly and you get seated pretty fast. I highly recommend this place, it's always super tasty! read more

ordered from there quite a few times, on a few occasions , soup was extremely salty, food was dry , a couple times ordered two wonton soups and pupu platter for two. at checkout tag stated 2 soups and platter, get home after 15 min drive and only 1 soup, called and asked what they could do for me, they asked if I could come back... really, although mgr said it will be computer credit for the next time. That's what they said last time but yet to get anything free or from previous credit There won't be another time, tired of not getting what you pay for and nothing for a wrong order. The crab rangoon has more personality than Front desk people.. the 1 star is generous read more

this is probably the best restaurant in Nashua. I'm seeing lots of complaints about customer service and I can't help but feel like we got some softies looking for an excuse to review this place negatively. "Love it here, great food! But my bartender didnt even smile." Oh poor you with your tasty dinner and beverage searching for something to be sore about. Place rocks. I grew up in Nashua and live in a major city now and I miss Chen Yang Li as an option on an almost weekly basis. read more

CYL is one of the better Asian restaurants I've visited in the Greater Nashua area. I typically go on Friday nights for either dine-in or takeout. Saturday nights can get be busy for dine-in but take-out is always ready in time. Servers are always prompt and friendly. Love the Mai-Tai's here. Not a big seafood eater but I always like the beef, chicken, and pork dishes here. Can't go wrong with any of the apps here. read more
