    Egg roll
    Kathleen S.

    This restaurant has decent Chinese food for cromwell area. I order the house lo mein , wonton soup and a dinner box that had chicken , egg-roll and rice in it. Staff was friendly. Service was fast too.

    Pork and String Beans from Lunch Special
    Jason P.

    I tried Ming Garden because it has one of the better Yelp ratings for Chinese food in the area. They have seating, but the atmosphere is not a selling point. They had a bunch of boxes stacked up in the dining area. More of a takeout place. I ordered a lunch special that had thin strips of pork and string beans and a mlld savory sauce, pork fried rice and an egg roll. My order was ready on time. Overall, the food was just OK. The string beans were overcooked and a bit mushy. The pork was just Ok. The strips were too thin to really enjoy. The egg roll did not have the presence of oil that you would expect from a freshly cooked egg roll. It was dry and the fillings didn't pop for me. The pork fried rice was a bit above average for a Chinese takeout spot. Ming Garden may be worth trying in light of its Yelp rating, but it's not a place that will be in my area takeout rotation. 3 Stars

    Honey Wings & Vegetable Fried Rice
    Caryn M.

    Apparently this is a new Chinese restaurant that's opened in the Cromwell area. I stopped in and ordered a honey wing combination with vegetable fried rice. I grew up in New York and ate honey wings all the time so I was surprised to find it's not as common in CT. Overall, the food was tasty and really fresh. I am excited to try more things on the menu. I thought I ordered a combination but this did not come with an egg roll which was unusual.

    Adorable reusable bag
    Dawn S.

    Dinner was excellent. We are on a sports trip & stopped here. We asked if we could eat in vs to go, the woman told us either was fine, but that they serve everything in to go containers. Totally fine with us, we just planned to back to our hotel and eat in the lobby. Very short wait. She brought out plates and forks for us, super nice, she did not need to do that! She brought out what was ready first and the kids started in. Everything was excellent, piping hot just cooked. She brought over free waters, they asked if we needed any extra sauces. Excellent service. If we lived closer, we would definitely be regulars here. Six people, we ordered three dinner specials and a few sides and we have leftovers. Oh and an adorable little reusable bag. Really great experience.

    This is one of those places you walk into and immediately relax…read more Sadie's Sunrise Café has that clean, airy, artsy neighborhood vibe, local artwork on the walls, a few quirky touches hanging from the ceiling, natural light pouring in, and just enough buzz to feel alive without being chaotic. It's not trying too hard, and that's exactly why it works. Feels like a spot where regulars post up, sip coffee, and take their time. No rush, no nonsense, ust good energy. And then the sandwich shows up... and flips the script. This isn't breakfast. This is a stacked, unapologetic morning statement. The Overloaded Egg Sando Griddled brioche bun, soft, buttery, just enough toast to hold things together (barely). Under that, a crispy hash brown doing the heavy lifting, adding crunch and soaking up all the goodness. Sausage brings that savory backbone, while the spinach scrambled eggs stay fluffy and rich. Then you get that creamy hit from the smashed avocado, melted smoked gouda layering in a subtle smokiness, and finally... the gochujang aioli. That aioli is the move. Sweet heat, a little funk, a little tang, cuts right through the richness and keeps every bite from getting too heavy. And let's be honest... Had to unhinge my jaw like a snake just to take the first bite. This thing is messy, stacked, and fully committed to the cause. Not first-date food. Not "eat it in the car" food. This is sit-down, take-a-minute, maybe-need-a-nap-after kind of food. The best part? The space balances it perfectly. Big, bold sandwich... calm, easygoing room. That's a combo I'll go back for every time.

    I didn't know this place was a hidden gem!…read more I ordered a bacon egg and cheese which came on a croissant, two eggs, and a side of hashbrowns I also tried their homemade triple berry jam, and I absolutely had to buy a jar! It was too good to pass up There is interesting artwork hanging from the ceiling and is definitely a dog friendly café. They have dog treats to sell and a lot of other goodies as well.

    NYPD is probably Rocky Hill's best kept secret. From the outside, the restaurant is very…read moreunassuming. You expect, like the other establishments in the plaza, to find a small cafe style restaurant. When you walk in, you are surprised with fun decor and spacious dining area. Everyone who has gone with me says the same thing "I would never expect it to look like this based on the outside." As for food, they have the Best Reuben sandwich in Rocky Hill. Fries are crispy and price on point. Every meal I've had there has been great! The only downside is table service during lunch is very slow. So make sure you have a full hour to burn if you go for lunch.

    So happy I finally caught this restaurant when they were open!…read moreI'm now making an effort to get out of the house early to catch them. Firstly, this restaurant is bigger than it looks! Secondly, the latte, cocktail & mocktail options are amazing, along with the many many options of food. I've heard that food from restaurants with large menus are mediocre...this DOES NOT apply here. My party of 2 tried breakfast & lunch options. Both were fresh & so flavorful, especially that homemade syrup I had with the French Egg Holes & Cinnamon Roll Pancakes (3). The home fries came out & were seasoned to perfection. Also, not 1 hard potato to be found. The over medium egg in my thick french toast was actually medium! And they gave me the wholes that were cut from the center of the bread. The pancakes were so fluffy & the icing delish. Tasted exactly like a cinnamon roll. We also ordered 2 different mimosas. The cranberry & the classic. Both were made crispy cold, with quality juices & came garnished. The Salted Cinnamon Mocha Latte, was velvet. It wasn't overly sweet, it wasn't watery or overly bold. I was surprised about how tall the cup was...I drank all of it. It wasn't served scorching hot, so I could sip right away. The Greek Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup was lovely. Typically, soup is watery & looks like it was the last bits, but this had chunky meat, the broth had flavor with hints of lemon. You could see the herbs. This didn't scream, I'm from a can at all. The service was also nice & the waitresses didn't mind that we couldn't make our decisions right away. She & her counterpart offered suggestions & were very kind with checking on us. At the end of the meal, we couldn't help but order some take home from the lunch menu for later. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

This visit we ordered chicken satay as an appetizer. It came out piping hot, super juicy, and flavorful! Their marinade is just sooo delicious it barely needs any extra sauce. I decided to get Pad Thai for a change because I'm usually a curry or stirfry girlie. It was an enormous portion of delicious noodles! I thought the sweet, salty, sour flavors were really well balanced. My husband had the Veggie Delight stir fry with chicken. It was a perfect simple stirfry with a delicate but flavorful sauce and tons of tender crisp vegetables. Our waitress was super sweet and it's a great casual atmosphere. They're also BYOB and they're more than happy to bring a glass for your beverage. I look forward to our next meal!

The veggie rolls were unremarkable (as most are) but the peanut sauce that came with them was quite tasty. The portion size of the pad thai noodles was enormous. The tofu was well flavoured and moist. The noodles themselves were a bit bland and needed more of a kick (something that one could accomplish with the Sriracha on the table). The eggplant dish was full of veggies, which I appreciated greatly, but was overly oily and underflavored. The rice that came with the stir fry was perfectly cooked. The ambiance was lovely, replete with "lush" vegetation and some bamboo ornaments. The restroom was also clean and well-maintained, sadly uncommon in this part of New England. Service was good. The waitress was pleasant and the food came out quite quickly. Overall, it is highly unlikely that I will return, because there are certainly better restaurants if one were to travel a bit further to Middletown. This is however a good option in the Rocky Hill area.
