    Food is great and Maya is good reason to come back Great service and attitude! Very authentic food and best Asian food in town Maya is the best!

    Hot and sour soup
    Kim S.

    The Golden Karma, 6 Willow St, Manchester NH. They have Great food. They have one amazing waitress/bartender Mia, who travels there every day from her home in Boston. She's only making $40-100/day because the restaurant is struggling. The food was really good, go support them if you can!

    Fish filet in spicy chili sauce
    Dave Y.

    So spicy! So good. This is it. The fish filet in spicy chili sauce. Spot on with the flavors. Not sure what the type of fish is in this pot, but I think I'll try it with beef next time. Beef chow fun was as good as anything I've had in SoCal. Terrific balance of flavors, not super greasy, very satisfying. Reminded me of meals from my childhood. Also ordered: string beans, eggplant with garlic sauce. All good. Altogether, really good food.

    Tried a variety of food from here and overall it was pretty good. I really liked the Sichuan beef and the hot and sour soup. The Sichuan beef had a lot of veggies which I enjoyed, I am a huge veggie fan with Chinese food. The hot and sour soup is legit, I haven't had it like this since I moved to the region. The sushi was average to me, not bad but I think I will stick to the Chinese food. I did like the boa buns, they had good flavor. The inside is nice and the staff is friendly. We got in early and had the place to ourselves. We also grabbed some takeout for later which warmed up great. We will definitely be back. Happy Hunting Yelpers!!!

    The atmosphere and vibe at the bar is great! The food is always fresh and appetizing. To go options are perfect for lunches during busy work hours! The Rainbow Poke Bowl is definitely a must. P.S. their crab Rangoon's are bomb!

    General Gao's lunch combo with fried rice and spring roll.

    I've had two very disappointing Chinese food experiences in the last couple of weeks so I was really craving decent Chinese food. This place popped up with decent reviews across applications so I thought I would give it a try for lunch on a Saturday for takeout. It was so good! I ordered the General Gao's chicken lunch combo with fried rice, spring roll, hot and sour soup. My order was ready on time, packaged perfectly. The man at the front counter was very pleasant. The food smelled great on my 22 min ride home. I opened up the container and was pleasantly surprised. It was a very generous portion for lunch, not skimpy on the chicken. The rice wasn't greasy. The Gen Gao itself was white meat chicken that was not dried out, nicely fried and nicely sauced with a few pieces of tender-crisp broccoli. The spring roll was still crispy, even after the ride home, and very fresh, zero stale oil taste and not greasy. The hot and sour soup was okay. Not my favorite but good enough. Probably just a personal preference. My lunch combo May 2023 was $10.50 so it was an amazing value! From what I saw of the interior it looked impeccably clean. I will definitely be ordering again or taking the kids for Hibachi and sushi!

    I love this place! I came here with friends out of town on two occasions and that was already amazing. The service was top tier and the food was absolutely delicious. The drinks are really good too. I just went there today and sat at the bar with a friend. This experience blew me away! Somehow sitting at the bar was even better. The bartender/everything was such a nice person, she told us her favorites and they didn't disappoint. The cocktails she made were beautifully presented as well as being a dance on the tongue. She even had us try her personal snack, which was just as amazing and satisfying as our experience with her. In conclusion this place is great and you should give it a try.

    Real crab in the Rangoon..

    Very clean and shiny.. Great food beautiful presentation.. Tastey and fresh.. will be returning to try more!

    Szechuan Fish Filet
    Ky Y.

    If you crave spicy food, this place is it! If you don't like spicy foods, they can make (almost) anything not spicy. I really enjoyed the Spicy Szechuan fish filet-really hit the spot for me! Their green beans and eggplant dishes were also very good. We will definitely be back! Next time I want to try their poke bowls and their specialty sushi rolls.

It's not authentic Japanese, it's an interpretation of Japanese by Chinese workers and Cooks. Also, Chinese service isn't great and the waiter here isn't attentive and a bit too casual for my taste. The food itself is just acceptable, and for the price not great. The atmosphere also still is pretty weak, and the restaurant is small. It's sort of almost like a hole on the wall. On the West Coast, I've eaten at over 30 authentic Japanese restaurants, and for those of you who aren't Japanese restaurant or sushi aficionados... This food is probably fine. If you know we're good, Japanese food is, don't come here and frankly you may need to drive to Boston to get it.

We came at lunchtime so asked for the lunch menu, but reading through the reviews, it seems like we should've gone with the dinner menu if we wanted sashimi. The food was as generally good, but we didn't care for the chicken fried rice. We expected fried rice with veggies and egg, but got rice that was doused in soy sauce and fried. Not the best, but we ate it because we didn't want to be charged. The sunrise roll was pretty good but the snapper on top wasn't the best cut of fish which meant there were some chewy bits and part of it tasted odd. The real stand out items were the tempura veggies, tempura chicken, beef teriyaki, and salmon cucumber roll. The plum mule was the best cocktail we tried, but the cocktails were generally good. The dessert mochi was a solid way to finish the meal. $5 per two piece order or free if you pay cash.

We ended up asking for our meals to go because we just wanted to get out of there. We even asked the bartender if the waiter was okay to which she said she believed he was on the end of a double.
