This place was nothing but joy. He offered me free dessert and Kept checking in to make sure there was a smile on my face and I was enjoying my food. Every bite of food was made with the most wonderful craft and consideration. My plate was so big and my belly was so full. I feel so happy after never having such a wonderful food experience that I've never had before. I hugged him goodbye, and almost wanted to ask him for his number. Thank you Joyful house ! read more

I literally joined Yelp! so I could leave this review. Went there over the weekend with my kids. The owner of this place should go to anger management classes. The way he was treating the poor waitress was the most abhorrent things I have had to witness. The owner was screaming and I mean screaming at the waitress and dropping f bombs to her left and right, the owner would go into the kitchen all you would hear was screaming and banging in the kitchen. He also had the absolute gall to scream at an ELDERLY employee saying that she didn't know anything! Also, when the phone would ring for pick up orders he would scream into the phone for the people "to stop calling!!!!" This man should be investigated for abuse because this was absolutely horrible to watch. Obviously he doesn't need the business he's bringing if he has the nerve to tell people to stop calling. And if people think maybe he was having a bad day...no...I've heard from countless people that this is how he behaves to the point that some Doordashers have stopped going there for this reason, he also screams at them too. I will say that although the waitress was being humiliated, berated and belittled she still had a smile on her face each time she came to us, she was wonderful and extremely kind and whoever she is I hope she gets a wonderful job so she doesn't have to take this from this animal who calls himself an owner! read more

Ordered takeout for lunch, I got the shrimp udon noodles with a small order of pork fried rice and a wonton soup. They only do takeout, but I wish that they had dine in to have drinks after work with friends. First time, and I loved the quality of the food! I will be trying out their Sushi soon! read more

This has always been my favorite place to eat Chinese food. The new owners are doing a fantastic job. We are so happy that Joyful House is reopened for people to sit and eat. read more

I typically do Chinese food here and it's alright, today I ordered veggie pad Thai and it was the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted. The noodles were completely mush.. the vegetables were not fresh and also mushy. Flavor was disgusting, I could not eat it. It was bad enough that I drove back to requested if I could maybe swap the pad Thai for lo mein.. they were kind enough to agree which I was thankful for, however I was bummed because I was really craving pad Thai and wasn't looking to drive far. It's also a bummer they never opened up their dining room post pandemic. read more

The food is good and staff is nice. My husband got me hooked on their food, so I like everything about them.

Joyful House USED to be good. Not sure what happened. All the "cooked" food is over cooked and almost inedible. Pictured is a fried shrimp from a PuPu. It's going to be a LOOOOOOOONG time before we go back. read more

Joyful House - This is supposed to be a fried shrimp from a PuPu. Its about the size of a half dollar. - Chinese Near Me - Plainfield, Connecticut

They look like they have a nice dining area but have been takeout only since the first time I went. I've gotten lunch from there a several times. They have a pretty big menu. The sushi was good. I've liked most of what I've tried and it's all been nice and fresh. They are on the more expensive side for Chinese takeout but overall good food read more

I ordered the sesame chicken with fried rice & egg roll. The chicken seemed to be great quality & it tasted delicious. The rice was decent, not the best but not the worst I've had. Egg roll was alright, but egg rolls aren't my favorite in the first place! Definitely order again read more

The only restaurant near Moosup (where I work) that have decent sushi and rolls. One of the best things is that they have super quick service and is perfect for a 30 minute lunch sushi craving. I always ordered to go the times I been there. read more

This is my go to local sushi place. I have eaten at other Japanese restaurants that are not consistent on their service and food. This place has never let me down. I had their sushi boat on my 28th birthday and it brings back such fond memories. They have the best drinks too. I had a pina colada right before COVID happened and I am cannot wait to go back. read more

Kind of your good, average Chinese restaurant. Friendly service. Not much to say. They roll up the sidewalks after nine in this area and it was the only restaurant open. Thankful for that. read more

Great food And lots of it Decent prices Call in for take out is quick Ample parking ample seating read more

Best in the Plainfield area. Our go to. Good sushi too. Better for takeout if there isn't too many people in the dining room, but also relaxing since it's not a loud environment. Strong drinks. Good portions. read more

This wasn't the worst Chinese in the world. But definitely not the best.... Their ginger dressing was soo salty I couldn't eat it. Their sushi is thick roll with mushy rice. I also could not eat the dumplings because they were not your typical dumplings. They were very breaded. The sesame chicken was pretty sweet and the fried rice was not good. I won't be ordering from here again. read more

Oh my God. amazing. they have amazing sushi. not even that. but the food is so so fresh. amazingly fresh. and the food is actually not greasy like at all. it's almost healthy. as healthy as you can get for Chinese anyway. they also have a sushi bar and have Japanese and Chinese beers available ! read more

Absolutely the best my husband and I always order the beef and broccoli meal which is wonderful and a side of crab rangoon ....the best...my favorite place for Chinese read more

I have gotten take out Chinese food from here on a couple occasions and it was ok. The other day my boyfriend and I decided to dine in for sushi. We ordered five rolls, my go to for any new to me sushi place is the rainbow roll, and spicy tuna mostly because every sushi place has these options. We also ordered the Alaskan, Dynamite and Philly. The rainbow roll and the dynamite were pretty but had no flavor. In fact none of the rolls had much flavor except the spicy tuna which had a minimal spice. We ordered hot tea for the table and it kinda tasted like dishwater. Most of the plates had chips in them like dings/nicks. Even the crunchy things they bring you at the beginning had an off flavor and the dipping sauce was watery and tasted like apple sauce. It was unanimous we will not be returning here. Nothing was inedible, but nothing was good either. read more

Used to love this place. Most sushi is good unless it has (FAKE) Spicy Tuna in it. The spicy tuna is just tempura crunches with red sauce dropped on it. Zero fish. It makes me angry. Inside is nice. Lately the beef has been gross and burnt on 2 different orders. One time the beef smelled like ammonia. Ughh I like the Singapore Mei Fun. Before we never had to police what we got. We may stop going all together. Maybe they keep changing chefs? Please get it together, we used to love going here. They refunded the bad food the first time. The second I was too frustrated to bother. read more

By far my favorite Chinese and sushi in town The staff is so friendly both when you dine in and get take out. Affordable prices and really great food! read more

Great Chinese food, wonton soup is delicious and the sushi is excellent! Service is consistently very good!. I Regularly visit and take out. Thanks Simon for all of your hard work to provide an excellent restaurant option in Plainfield read more

Let me start off by saying this is the only local Chinese food restaurant so they automatically get points for that. The food is good, the restaurant is clean and the service is quick, the only off-putting aspect is that the hostess has about as much personality as a wet dish rag. It's very awkward as a customer to be friendly to restaurant staff, only to have that friendliness met with uncomfortable silence or flat, emotionless responses. This doesn't hinder me from frequent visits to Joyful House, but I can understand why someone who places importance on friendly service would be slightly disappointed. Other than that, it's one of my favorite local spots! read more

this establishment keeps the tips. they are not given to the server. other than that..the food is great. sushi is very fresh. btw..i made sure the girl got her cash. read more

Great food and portions. The Volcano roll was spectacular! Sake was nice and hot and atmosphere was quiet.

So good! The staff is always so kind, prices are affordable and portion sizes are good!! Always my go to place!

Placed an order and went to pick it up it wasn't ready and then come to find out they didn't pay the water bill and the water got shut off

Spicy tuna rolls were ok. Everything seems kinda bland. California rolls very good. Wasabi seemed weak or just plain off. I enjoy my eyes watering and got none of that. Lucky I had my own at home Gen Tao chicken was super sweet and portion was skimpy compared to Hong Kong Buffet. Lots of filler veggies that went in the trash. But kids liked it so yay! Egg rolls and fried rice were weird looking/tasting to us as well. Not bad... But wouldn't order them again. So Japanese side I'd give 4. Chinese side 3 read more

This is a nice place. Nice decor. Really nice looking bar. We stopped in for lunch and ordered the general tso and roast pork egg foo young lunch special. It came with fried rice and soup or egg roll. Everything was really good. The fried rice is a star. Not too greasy or overcooked at all. The crabrangoon is very good too. We are definitely returning very soon to try out the Japanese side of the menu. read more

I have gotten food twice from Joyful House with mixed results. The first time i ate in and had a bento box lunch which was amazing and some steamed dumplings which were surprisingly good. The next time i got regular Chinese combo plate take out and while it was alright it was nothing special. The dumplings were just okay the second time. I think the jury is still out on the Chinese but the Japanese food was great. read more

Very good atmosphere, and the sashimi was prepared extremely well, leaving only the tender and most flavorful parts of the fish. Probably the best I've had in this area. read more

Delicious food and a great staff. So good. We had sushi, chicken fingers, roast pork fried rice, beef teryaki, shrimp lo mein, hot and sour soup and bbq ribs. Under $50 to feed a family of four. read more

Didnt put any rice under my sashimi when I ordered takeout probably because I ordered a large rice but for a separate order f+ck them dont order here fuck this place and no fried crispy noodles with the soup I ordered read more

I love this place...the crab rangoon is the best I have ever had...I usually get to go's and have never found any fault with anything

The crab rangoon was wonderful. Egg rolls over done and not great. The other meals were just okay.

I go here often service is fast and friendly and for a small restaurant in the middle of nowhere they have some of the best sushi I have ever had! Every time I have been everything was fresh and there miso soup is out of this world! The portions are larger then most (with the sushi anyway) I would highly recommend it. read more
