A very cozy spot offering a wide variety of Asian food in a warm and welcoming environment. Great selection of freshly prepared dishes with solid service. Relaxed and unhurried place for lunch or dinner read more

Great food. I've been coming here for Two years now. Food is very good with a wide variety to choose from. Fresh and filling although I don't feel exhausted and gross after. The dragon ball appetizer was suggested to me by a friend and I'm happy I ordered it! Super yum. The dragon ball is filled with kani and something crunchy topped with avocado. The sauce was very good and I just had to add some rice to this to eat more of it. The sushi is fresh and came out quickly. Authenticity meets quality. read more

Ok another fab meal, sat at bar with quick service after annoying the bartender. Overall a very good 2nd meal here. Impressed by the consistency in same delivery of taste and flavors. My 4 star b/c the bartender was so brash to insinuate we overate! How rude when I'm paying and tipping generously. read more

The restaurant has been in Westport for almost 40 years, though it moved to its cutest location about 30 years ago.'Toni's consistently been excellent. The cooking is definitely been different from most other Chinese restaurants, and deserves to be known better now. read more

What has happened to one of the OG Chinese restaurants! since Covid the food is no longer good. I've been coming here since the 1970's and now I'm forced to find another place. what happened??? I'm so disappointed read more

I remember when the little kitchen first opened in Westport. There used to be a line out the door of people waiting to try their delicious food. However, over the years, it appears that the food has lost its taste. My husband and I ordered the shrimp fried rice, which was pretty bland; the sesame chicken which wasn't that flavorful was overly cooked and lastly, the bbq spare ribs didn't have any bbq sauce and tasted awful. I miss the old way they used to do the boneless spare ribs. Ugh. Oh well. read more

It's almost impossible to get adequate Chinese food outside of the city, but this spot is Much better than any other place in the area!

TL;DR version: Really nice ambiance interior decor, unclear reservation policy, and really mediocre Chinese food. Called about making a reservation for Christmas Eve and was told they don't take reservations that night which is why it was a little off-putting when we walked in that night and were asked if we had reservations so we had to wait 20-30 minutes for a table - and there was clearly a table reserved for a large party right in the center of the dining area. But it's fine, they have a nice bar area with TVs for waiting. Onto our meal - also Dec 2023 menu photos attached: - Roti Canai (Malaysian pancake): Crispy and went well with the curry sauce but the pancake itself was way too oily. - Cold Sesame Noodles: Decent, the fried wontons included ended up being more like spinach and cheese rangoons which was interesting and a first time seeing something like this served with sesame noodles but not bad. - Steamed Pork Dumplings: Bland, the dumpling filling and also the dipping sauce. - Singapore Rice Noodles: Bland - "light curry sauce" was a little bit too light. Could've used more sauce. - Mama's Fried Rice (chinese sausage, onion, scallions & eggs): Decent, still a little bland for my tastes - a more sweet than savory fried rice because of the sweetness of chinese sausage - but serviceable. - Kung Pao Chicken: Got this because saw it mentioned so frequently and looked promising. Just ok, nicely glazed. Presentable, nice thin crispy strips but also felt like more fried breading than chicken itself. - Tangerine Beef: Served on a shao bing/chinese flatbread. Sweetness overload. I couldn't even eat this. It was sickeningly sweet. My advice is don't do what we did and get this AND kung pao chicken. Too much sweet fried meat. - Eel Cucumber $9 & Shrimp Avocado Roll $7: Not too expensive but just average quality. I kind of expected more from a place with a more upscale ambiance. I can't comment on the raw fish as I was pregnant at the time of my visit but my MIL did order the tri-color sushi combo and the color/texture of the fish also looked equally mediocre as my rolls. FYI, they are semi-gluten-free friendly. For cooked dishes, they can make SOME GF but our server was also telling us not to/we couldn't get certain things which sounded like they just didn't want to make the dish fresh for us with temari (aka it might be pre-made already) and they will give you temari packets of soy sauce if you order sushi. read more

I think Little Kitchen has great food and I will continue to go back but I just want to give you all a heads up For the last 3 or 4, that I have ordered wonton soup. They have short changed me two or 3 wontons per wonton soup. Count your before before you leave I would love to tell you how many you supposed to have but every time I ask them, they tell me a different number read more

We were next door at Fine Wines of Westport when we spotted the Little Kitchen and headed in. Wow. This was a great choice. The place was large with many seating options. The waiter was extremely nice and very established as he created many customers in a familiar way. The service was provided by that same waiter and we really enjoyed having him. The food was excellent. The Roti Cani and Szechuan Dumplings in spicy peanut sauce were both delicious. The sauce for both was spot on with flavor. We ordered general Tao's and (per recommendation) these noodles (I don't remember the name) that had a little spice and a lot of flavor! The general Tao's was cut thin and beautifully saucy. We were beyond pleased with our meal and our service. We will definitely be going back! read more

Hadn't been in years but just re-visited and found the food tasty and service solid at a reasonable price. Surely lacking in ambience but should be taken for what it is. I'll call it "New York Asian", meaning not necessarily authentic (is that the same thing as "fusion"?), but I have never gotten a bad meal there. read more

Cute place with great food, if you enjoy pan-Asian cuisine. I enjoyed the Singapore rice noodles and the laksa. Service was efficient and friendly. Prices were very reasonable. All in, it was a pleasant experience with a nice menu, good setting and service, and excellent t food. read more

My family and I cannot live without this place!! Love the food and the staff! Always delicious!

Ordered the egg rolls, spicy salmon roll, shrimp tempura roll, sesame shrimp for take out. All delicious and flavorful. Fish was very fresh. Serving size for the sesame shrimp was big enough for two meals (about 8 jumbo shrimp). Have also eaten inside and the service has always been excellent. Always clean and nice ambiance. I have been coming here for years and never been disappointed! read more

I used to really enjoy Little Kitchen but my last visit was really off. I ordered chicken pad thai with extra veggies. The chicken was a piece of charred grilled chicken placed on top of the noodles instead of stir fried into the dish. It didn't seem to go together. I wasn't given extra veggies. I would've said something but our server never came back to check on us. When we were finished she asked if we wanted our food wrapped and then just brought the check. Never asked if we wanted another drink, coffee, dessert. We weren't ready to end our evening but since our server decided to close us out prematurely we went somewhere else for drinks and dessert. Unfortunately, they lost out on a larger check and ultimately return business because I don't plan on coming back. I had brought two family members who had never been so they would've been new customers. They found the experience to be mediocre and I don't think they'll be back either. read more

I'm shocked at the bad reviews for this place. My son and I went to visit family in Westport last weekend and they took us to this restaurant. My son is 4 and had the vegetable lo-mein, which he loved and ate almost the whole portion of. I tried it and to be honest it was one of the best lo-meins I've ever tried and I live in NYC. I regretted not ordering a portion for myself! I myself got a spider roll and a rainbow roll, both of which were fresh and delicious. Their coconutini was SO GOOD too. We'll definitely be asking to go here every time we go visit from now on, it's THAT good. read more

A friend of mine who lives in Westport always raves about their food, so I decided to give her a gift certificate to the restaurant as a Christmas present. I'm out of state, so I did this on their website. It seems their third party vendor did not do the job of confirming it to me or of sending her an email with the details, so I called the restaurant and spoke to Dan who did confirm they received my payment for the gift certificate. He generously offered to send my friend an email himself, which he did, copying me. All went well as a result. You don't find many businesses that will go out of their way for you, so I wanted to give them a shout out for their great service. read more

Here's the thing, paying a higher price for Chinese food is unpopular and some say unfair, but like any food, if it's delicious and you know it, wouldnt you pay a bit more for it? I know this is CT and it seems like there is a "resort fee" on every food bill, but LK is doing classic NY Chinese food very very well. Do not sleep on Their hot and sour soup, it rivals the best of the best. Chinese dishes are better than Japanese even though fish is very fresh with nice portions, they just aren't paying attention to the rice which some argue is more important than the fish. Highlights include Sesame beef or chicken. Beef or chicken and broccoli, a lovely and cozy tofu and mushrooms in clay pot and proper wok hei in lo mein. Duck was small, pricey, and dry but loved putting it all together in mushu pancakes. Standard but delicious pan fry dumplings. Nice decor, but please figure out how to get the sticky off the tables. Attentive staff, as I drink water all meal long and a good water service program is a mark of something going right. Ha. read more

Used to be good. Dry ribs. Bland beef with broccoli. My buddy liked the chicken lo mein but I'm not sure he's all there. He'll eat anything. Anyways hoping the best for the restaurant Trump and God Bless. read more

This place is very poor. I ordered my food at 12:45pm for a 5:00pm pickup. I get there at 4:50pm and they tell me they have just started preparing my order. The smarmy guy just says we're busy. And they took a tip, what for I don't know read more

wow!! i had the sesame chicken, dynamite rolls and komodo rolls- they were phenomenal. Very tasty!

I remember going to The Little Kitchen many years ago with my mom and recently decided to return with my dad and aunt for lunch. Our waiter was very nice and patient as we took time deciding on what we wanted. Loved the dumplings and the hot and sour soup. My sesame chicken, on the other hand, was not great. The pieces were really thin and barely had any meat on them. It didn't taste all that good either. The other chicken dish was apparently good (according to my aunt)! I would return to try other dishes than the one I got! read more

Nick is an excellent Sushi chef. If you ask he will give recommendations. I highly recommend it.

I have been frequenting little kitchen since it was a take out spot on Main Street. They suffered a bit during covid and have come back stronger than ever. Ask for Tyler as your waiter. He is fabulous and very knowledgeable about the menu!!! Enjoy and don't be shy about asking for extra spice!! read more

My go-to for great quality Asian food in Westport. The decor is fabulous -- fascinating wood-carved pieces and just the right amount of red and black. Roti canai is buttery goodness. read more

I discovered this superb restaurant when I was visiting an old friend in the Westport area. And I'm so happy that I did. I ordered a big variety of dishes that would feed us for both lunch and dinner and every single item was just wonderful. And the prices were quite reasonable, particularly considering the high quality of the cuisine. Highly, highly recommended! read more

I moved to Westport 38 years ago, and for some reason, never ate at The Little Kitchen. That changed yesterday, as my husband and I were in the shopping center and decided to try it. (Are we glad we did, and sorry we never did before!) We ordered General Tso's Chicken and a Shrimp with Spinach dish. They were both delicious, the portions were huge, and we had enough left over for dinner tonight. General Tso's Chicken is one of my faves, and I've had it in many restaurants. I wanted to compare it with the others, and I really think this was the best! We will definitely be back! read more

Excellent food , the wait staff is wonderful and the bartender was amazing I think her name was Laura

Very perfect place I order pickup once a week the fried rice is amazing and joys your tast buds it's only 10 to 15 mins to make a very good dinner perfect for family's. I reccomend this restaurant if your looking for the perfect Asian restaurant. read more

We have been consistently impressed with the food here, and I crave it on a weekly basis, at least. I am vegan and they have done a great job accommodating my dietary restrictions. The food is consistent. My favorites are the mapo tofu, the garlic, string beans, and the mixed vegetables in white sauce. But the sushi rolls and tofu hot pot also blow my mind. My meat eating friends love the vegan dishes too. I don't know why this place is so underrated. It's one of the best Thai places I have ever experienced. read more

The worst Chinese restaurant in Westport. Food, at best, is less than mediocre. Kitchen staff and manager, sitting in the back, try to pretend they do not see me, as I walk in, wait, then waving my hand. The waitress is trying to do her job well. She should look for a job elsewhere. read more

Honestly I'm very disappointed! the table was super sticky, I couldn't even clean it with wipes, I had to put my napkins on the table because it was super sticky. I asked for water for my son and they brought a container pierced with a straw! Furthermore, the container was broken and it wet the entire table! The food is definitely 2 stars! expect more for the price and location! I do not recommend ! read more

We catered from The Little Kitchen for a party of 50 and it was so delicious! The team was amazing, prompt, provided utensils and the food was varied (we had vegetarian, gluten free, etc. dietary restrictions). Would recommend, we love coming here in person too. Some of our favorite items were the tofu, eggplant, rangoons. read more

The food here is reliably good. I would have given it four stars but I made the mistake of ordering sushi once, and it was pretty terrible. Probably my mistake but don't have it on the menu if you're gonna do it that badly! But is long as you stay in the Chinese side of the menu, you're good! read more

Takeout has become very disappointing. Spare ribs very spare. Wonton soup with no pork or vegetables, but lots of salt. Used to be the best. read more

The Chinese dishes we had were not challenging, e.g., wonton soup, etc., but food was tasteless, terrible. First and last time we will patronize this place. read more

CELIACS AND GLUTEN SENSITIVE- BEWARE ! Little Kitchen claims they can make their dishes gluten free; ok. Got a fried rice to go, and it was good, no problems. One week later we placed a $65 order for pickup; Ordered bali shrimp and House spicy, both gluten free. When I got them home, BOTH dishes were breaded (!) We called, they sent someone out promptly with the "correct" dishes. They arrive, and were just sauceless, tasteless sauteed shrimp and vegetables. Not cooked in gluten free soy sauce, or ANY sauce! We call, and the guy gets on the phone and rudely claims "we got what we ordered". Then, they sent the driver back AGAIN to collect all 4 incorrect dishes for a credit! Pathetic. Had to call Rainbow Thai and get two proper dishes. Moral of the story- if you have gluten issues DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE! Even if you can eat normally, look at the reviews before you waste your money and time read more

Best Chinese food in Westport! I judge every Chinese restaurant by their cold sesame noodles, my favorite, and theirs are perfect. The Szechuan beef and sesame chicken are also fantastic. read more

This was once a favorite go to for a wonderful dinner with great service. Unfortunately, tonight proved to be a terrible experience and quite possibly the last time we'll visit Little Kitchen. Although we entered later in the evening, we were told the kitchen was still open. We ordered several appetizers and our regular dinners. The server came out with 3 appetizers, one of which was completely different than our actual order and the rest was cold, greasy and plated as though it came from a bucket. Our entrees also came out at the same time, so we could just as easily have ordered from a dollar menu and gotten better food. And still, after all of this, we made excuses for what we knew was not ordinary from this restaurant. What was most shocking and disappointing, was the owner, who stood closely by, never acknowledged our unhappiness even after the waitress presented him with uneaten plates of food. He allowed frequent customers to walk out the door feeling disgusted by what came out of his kitchen and disappointed by what didn't come out of his mouth. A simple apology would have validated our feelings and helped bring about another visit. Feeling very sad after a horrible experience in Westport. read more

Sooooooo delicious!!!! Good prices and good music. My waitress was the sweetest woman named Mulan and I got my food really quickly. Definitely coming back every Saturday for lunch haha. Thank you Mulan and little kitchen! read more
