I decided to try this place for the first time and it might be my new favorite Chinese food place! We ordered online and it was ready right when we went to pick it up and the food was really good. I ordered General Tsao's chicken, the chicken and vegetables combo platter, and the dumpling soup. Everything was delicious and I especially loved the egg roll that came with the combo platter. The prices are comparable to other Chinese food places as well. I will definitely end up ordering here again! read more

China Sea - Dumpling soup - Chinese Near Me - Marlborough, Connecticut

See all

Service is great but food quality is very poor. Ordered a sesame chicken and general tsos and the chicken was not edible. It appears to be the lab grown chicken (not real). It was stringy and chewy. We ended up throwing it away. Flavor was there but if you are ok with chewy chicken that's could be lab grown go for it! read more

We really enjoy the wonton soup! The wontons are really delicious. The shrimp are large, meaty and flavorful in all the shrimp dishes.

Love this spot! The Lo Mein here is delicious and not greasy at all. Food is prepared fast and the place is very clean. Highly recommend!

Really good Chinese food! our go to for Chinese food. Management has changed over the years, but consistently has been really good. Large portions, well prepared and the orders have always been accurate. read more

I've been going here since I was a kid!! The service is always quick and I have never had a problem with the food!!! It's probably the most affordable chinese place I have gone to and the quality is the best in the area in my opinion. Usually, this is a "to go" restaurant, but on occasion, I have seen people eat there. I will always be back!! read more

Average Chinese cuisine. Nothing special on the menu. Service was prompt for takeout. It is primarily a takeout restaurant with a couple of dining tables. read more

Our food was delicious. Their pork fried rice is delicious. The crab ragoons were not my favorite but the rest of the food made up for it. General tso, sesame chicken & boneless spare ribs were Yum read more

Best egg rolls in state. Hands down. Clean and always ready when i arrive. Will be trying other things on menu soon

New favorite Chinese spot! I live down in Hebron I used to frequent a different Chinese restaurant but this one is my new favorite worth the extra 10 min for me! General tsos, eggs rolls, boneless spare ribs, chicken and broccoli all so yummy! read more

Good food, friendly service. No inside seating and usually busy so order ahead. Very clean and food always consistently good

Location is very convenient. Get right off the highway. It's right there on your way home. Food is always good and lo mein not greasy highly recommend. read more

Great food and very reasonable. After much holiday cooking since Thanksgiving it was time for a break. Christmas Day meal order for 6 with apps ready in less than 30 minutes. Our go to for Chinese food and now our family's new Christmas Day tradition! read more

Delicious and affordable- I regret not getting their garlic chicken combination more often!

We really enjoy the food at China Sea. Service is great and we always take out. Parking is convenient.

Our favorite local place. The fried dumplings are great here. The restaurant is very clean and everything is fresh and made to order. Reasonable prices and consistent quality. read more

The cleanest Chinese restaurant I've ever been in, they take allot of pride in the presentation of their environment. I've been to a few others nearby and walked out before I ordered. Staff is always friendly, food is always amazing. read more

Some of the best boneless spare ribs I've had from a Chinese food restaurant, really good fried rice too!

Yikes, we came in here for take out today. Our usual spot is in Colchester, but we live in East Hampton. We have driven past China Sea several times but haven't been in until today. We played it safe and ordered egg rolls, general tso chicken, sweet & sour chicken, teriyaki beef sticks, and boneless spare ribs. Atmosphere: A - The space is modern & clean with plenty of parking. Food: Failed :( The General's chicken was sauted chicken instead of fried & the sauce was super watery. The sweet & sour chicken was just ok but it's hard to mess up fried balls of chicken. The spare ribs smelled like bologna and the pieces were shredded small pieces of meat with a bizarre texture. The teriyaki beef was inedible - looked like rubber on a stick and had a foul smell. We wanted to love this spot because it is so close to home, but "me thinks not". read more

They used to be great. I sincerely don't know what happened. Taste quality of food is off the last few months. Additionally they aren't getting orders correct anymore. I've had to go back the last two times I ordered to pick up an item they forgot to include with order. While there tonight 4 customers returned for items not in their bag. They still got my order wrong tonight and rice is way undercooked. read more

The new location is nice but there is limited seating space with there only being a few tables. The food is good but is a bit pricey compared to other Chinese restaurants. read more

Very average but I'm glad to have a sushi place so close to my house! My husband and I have been here a few times. I always get sushi and miso soup and he always gets Chinese. The portions are very large which I like since it keeps well and we can have it for more than one meal. The prices are right and the fish is fresh. Our almost 2 year old daughter loves the miso soup so it's a win win all around. I just wish there was more variety and special rolls in their Japanese department read more

I don't get the bad reviews. The take out here is better than most others in the area, and the Wonton soup beats a lot of restaurants. I've always been treated very well by the woman who works there, and I've been going here for almost a decade and a half. I recommend the chicken and broccoli, the Wonton Soup, chicken fried rice (way better than pork fried rice) and the steamed dumplings. My mom swears by the orange chicken and lemon chicken, and my brother is a fan of the ribs. read more

This is the worst Chinese place I've ever eaten at! My friends and I ordered by phone pick up. I ordered General Tsao's tofu. They said they won't fry tofu. So, after arguing, I said, "Fine, just make it not fried". I instructed them to make it mild, not spicy. Then, they call back, tell me I don't want General Tao's tofu, and they're making me some other tofu dish. Whatever, I'm hungry, it's not animal, good enough. We get there, and find out they failed to inform us there was a minimum So, my friend ordered vegetable egg rolls. "You don't want vegetable egg rolls! How about regular!". After all this, I got the food home, and it tasted like sad. It was the culinary embodiment of the emotion "sad". If sadness had a flavor, this is it! read more

An unassuming Chinese takeout, sandwiched between Subway and Dunkin Donuts. I'm glad it's there- a welcome third option. heh. Anyway they waved me in from the cold and told me to get a lunch special. I said okay, but give me plain rice instead of pork-fried, and a few minutes later I had a hearty plate of veggies and noodles. It was pretty good too- nice and saucy, with a solid flavor. I liked it. A good lunch for 4 bucks you know. read more

There aren't many lunch choices for the town of Marlborough and China Sea is definitely one of my go to places when I forget my lunch at home. Fast and attentive service and the food is always good. They have just opened up a new restaurant space offering sushi so I can't wait to actually go and dine in rather than get take out. I plan to report back once I've done so! read more

My family and friends have been going here for years and we all love it!!! They give you huge portions for a very reasonable cost, and a lot of the time they throw in a free drink. My college roommate loved their General Tso's chicken so every time i would go back to school i would pick up some on my way back. They also give you way more dumplings than most other places do for the same price. read more

China Sea never disappoints, the food is always fresh and the restaurant is really nice to eat at. The owners and staff are very nice and polite. We travel from a town over to come here because we don't have a Chinese place that comes even close to the quality and taste of China Sea! read more

Not many other options nearby so this will have to do. I like their crab rangoon and their boneless so are ribs are decent as well. Unfortunately he chicken and broccoli dish is lacking flavor and they are skimp on veggies in every dish. I expect better and I know they can do it. I'll review again IG things change in the future. read more

Wow!! Delicious Chinese food I'm from Southington and this blows anything we have out of the water. Veggies taste incredibly fresh good prices and the owners are very very nice people!! No complaints read more

Wow. We loved this place! We pulled in late night on our way home. We noticed it getting off the highway, were hungry and figured why not try. Not to mention, the owner was more than happy to accommodate us despite closing within about 15-20 minutes. We dined it. Really nice ambience, very modern and best of all - clean. I ordered a salmon/avocado hand roll - very well made and a very generous portion of salmon and avocado. I also ordered the chef's tekka don, absolutely delicious, very similar to a poke bowl, again a more than generous portion. My husband ordered the seafood delight, very good and another generous portion. Overall, excellent service, very nice owners, very good food, nice restaurant. We will be returning and ordering takeout too! read more

When you order by phone, this little boy takes your order. He is good, but is very annoying and that's why we won't be back anytime soon. He also takes your money and can be very combative with the customers. My husband came home a few weeks ago and literally had enough of this 10 year old kids attitude. His mother (or adult) just listens to him. There are many places to go and well, we certainly don't need to give our money and be annoyed. Also, Uggg doesn't look to clean. food resting near or on the floor grossed me out.umm heath dept?? where are you? read more

Very clean restaurant with very good food. Enjoyed the wonton soup and chicken. Walked in and ordered and I was back out the door quickly.

Typical Chinese take-out with one difference.....the beef teriyaki. Whatever they do to it, It tastes absolutely fabulous. They must know they make something special because it's pretty expensive.. $4 for two sticks. The major downside to this place is the little boy they have working behind the counter. He's got a serious attitude and very little patience. You'll be ordering and he'll say "that it?" after everything you say. It's very annoying. I'll let you know when that's it!. They also always have the front door open and I'm sure all sorts of bugs make their way in, especially at night. If they got rid of the kid, it would be all the better, too. read more

Owners have a seriously nasty attitude, trying to make one feel lucky that they're wiling to sell you mediocre Chinese take-out. This place only stays in business because it's the only one in town. I suggest heading up Route 2 to Glastonbury where you'll have better choices and nicer staff. read more

Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. I've tried them on occasion during busy and slow times. I was told 20 mins on a busy night and ended up waiting another 15 mins. The quality of the food varies. The sauces will vary from thin to almost gummy. There has been inconsistency among the dishes. The decor is nice with some seating offered but hot in there during the summer. read more

They screwed up my order (gave me the wrong meal) and refused to refund my money. Just clueless. Won't be back

This is a fine takeout ... nothing special but I keep going back for the garlic pork. Joan loves the shrimp in lobster sauce. The small boy is friendly and helpful ... some reviews are not. read more

We try Chinese food wherever we go and nothing seems to stack up to China Sea. It is unassuming as others have written, but the food is excellent! read more
