Wah May is absolute gas! Best chinese food around! One of my favorite places to eat in Fairhaven.read more

Wah May has been slinging chow mein and other old school Chinese goodies since 1961 from what looks…read morelike a former residence. Surprisingly, no bar. Unsurprisingly, plenty of combination plates. Chow Mein Sandwich: They have several choices for this regional specialty, which can also be had as a chop suey sandwich. Proteins include chicken, beef, mushroom, pork strip, and even shrimp or scallop. I went with chicken. What arrived was a humongous assemblage of thick-cut celery, tender chicken strips, and onions, with crunchy flat noodles interspersed and a thin, dark brown gravy (neither sweet nor salty) underneath. The bun was basically a garnish, so this demanded fork and knife eating. I think of it as a crunchier Chinese version of a hot turkey sandwich, with the bun the least important element but what makes it unique. As chow mein, good flavor and good texture, coming in well above average to near-elite. Shrimp and Lobster Sauce (on a combo): Five shrimp, ever so slightly overdone but serviceable, buried in a faintly sweet sauce with a more potent dark black bean base, with a few swirls of egg white. Scallions on top were more than a garnish, providing a savory counterpoint to the sweetness. Well above average. Egg Roll (on the combo): I have to admit, there are times I'm not fully certain on whether an egg roll filling is celery, cabbage, or a mix. This was NOT one of those times. The celery brigade can rejoice, as this one goes well past "celery forward" and onto "celery in your face," and I'm talking more in your face than an Elaine Benes Christmas card. Dark green, thick chunks, all with some crunch, and fully loaded. Baby shrimp and pork can also be found lurking, but this is all about the dominant celery. The wrapper brought a bit of greasiness (though within tolerance) but a strong, pleasant flavor as well. This unique egg roll bordering on subgum-in-a-shell is an absolute must-try, and I liked it to an extent, but wouldn't want it regularly. It's an acquired taste, so it's tough to score: overall, probably average, but a really fascinating average. Pork Fried Rice: A little dry in spots but dark of color with flavor to match and an acceptable amount of pork, onion, and bean sprouts. Above average. Very enjoyable meal, good food, different food, and a place I'm eager to revisit. Fairhaven is just over the bridge from New Bedford and boasts some stunning works of architecture in its town hall, Millicent Library, and Unitarian Memorial Church, all right around the corner from Wah May and not to be missed if you're into beautiful historical buildings.

-ONE PARAGRAPH REVIEW-…read more Sweet Ginger is always consistent- friendly faces, generous portions, and tasty Chinese fast food. I'm a General Gao/Tso kind of guy and I personally love the flavor and added peppers and broccoli in their General sauce. I find it perfectly spicy. I often get tofu too- and the way they fry theirs up is perfect, crispy on the outside and moist in the middle, and it's done better than other Chinese joints in the area. 4.5 stars rounded up to 5, because while I've never had bad food here, they've sometimes, a few times in fact, forgotten to include the rice or sides in my takeout order, so make sure you check yours before leaving!

Got the chicken pad Thai lunch special and it was affordable and yummy. I just wish it had a bit…read moremore chicken in it. Decent for takeout though! I've eaten in here before, but not in a while. I did enjoy the service and food when eating there though. It's a good spot for Asian and Thai especially since there are less options in the area than there used to be.

I ONLY order from Grand Wok since first ordering couple years ago and NEVER have they let me dow!…read moreThe only woman I usually see or hear on the phone is very kind and patient my orders are never wrong the food is delicious always fresh tasting and the portions are great! I just had an experience the other day that justified my love for this restaurant! I had an order that got delivered something I often order but there was something different in the color of the beef it wasn't as dark as usual. when I called the woman not only said they would deliver another order but also actually took the time to explain why the beef was different which made sense regarding the amount of soy sauce usually used etc....the new delivery came pretty fast. if you want good Chinese food don't bother with anywhere else in the area. you won't be disappointe!

The ambiance is narrow restaurant in strip mall, with tiny sushi corner and dark panels. The sushi rolls tasted kind of Chinese to me, with extra sauces and thick breading on the tempura shrimp. The General chicken (called 'Gau' around Boston, 'Tso' elsewhere) was pretty good, but not the best. Sauces were quite sweet. While it's not inexpensive, the entrees were all large enough to share. Overall, this is about the best Chinese food you're going to find in New Bedford.

Your older bartender tonight was clearly drunk and horribly rude. We came to watch a friends band…read moreplay tonight as we have many musician friends that frequent. After waiting 30 minutes at a table, we transitioned to the bar and she yelled you're gonna wait 30 more minutes here. She started to get mouthy so we went to leave and say goodbye to the band and she followed us, harassing us saying bye bye over and over again, very loudly, being extremely aggressive. Every person could hear her. We told her to have another drink as we left. We will not be coming back nor will any of our friends. Absolutely unacceptable service and treatment. We would give less than one star if we could. Update: As we know one face isn't the whole business. Steph reached out to us to rectify the issue which was so commendable. Will change the rating because of that! Better experience than expected. Thank you Steph!

Been there a few times in the past it was ok .... So recently went there about a month ago . Food…read morewas cold awful and I said maybe it was just that day . Well my favorite place was on vacation so I wanted Chinese this past Saturday. Called Ying for take out ! Was put on hold than hung up on . Ok call back put my order in . Brought it home . The chicken fingers seemed like they were out under maybe a heat lamp for hours and the ends were hard as a rock . Terriaki Steak was like chewing shoe leather cold . Spare ribs horrible . So that was the second time everything was overcooked. Only thing I can say positive was the portions are big . I will definitely stay with my regular place . Should have brought it all back . Half of it or more ended up in the trash . This is honestly maybe the 3 rd time I have written a food review. I just had to share my opinion.

When I microwaved it the next day, it tasted BETTER. What? That makes no sense. But mmm, greasy scallion pancakes and crab rangoons. And the spare ribs were also really good (they're like small chunks as opposed to big pieces).

Some traditional decor and feel. Only constructive feedback would be about the booth cushions being a bit beat up but not terrible and wouldn't ruin the experience.
