Lucy is a great manager taking phone calls, cash register, and helping to package. She is always kind and she remembers a lot of the regulars usual order.

I'm heartbroken. This is a sad loss for the locals and island. Ching Tao is the last of the 3 great…read moreChinese restaurants this island had. Hong Kong being the best and my friends family restaurant The Canton being a very close second. This is the second time I've eaten Ching Tao since it changed ownership and the second time I've seen a drastic change in the quality of their food. The difference is night and day. The new owner did what all stupid people do when they buy a great restaurant and trade what made it so great for more money. Such a stupid, STUPID move. He dropped the ball big time and if he doesn't change back right now, it's the beginning of the end for this once outstanding restaurant. I'm sorry. I've eaten this food since I was a kid and I'm 55 now. Trust me when I say what I say. The egg rolls are smaller and pre- cooked or pre cooked even more so when you get them now they're almost burnt and crusty. Not only that they're considerably smaller. I've ordered them on both occasions and they were exactly the same. The best egg rolls on the island by far are close to mall food quality now. I also got the General Tso's chicken. It's half breading now and falls apart on the fork before you can get it into your mouth. I was blown away at the reduction in size of the chicken, the change from chicken breast to thigh meat and doesn't taste half as good as it did. That's all I got the last two times I've eaten there so thats all I can give an opinion on but I'll guarantee everything's changed there in one way or another in the name of the all mighty dollar. I won't be going there again and it makes me genuinely sad. I'm going to miss that place.

The restaurant was close to the hotel where we were staying. (If you need a visual landmark, it shares the same lot as the Planet Fitness on Main). Here's what we ordered: - Scallion pancakes - Wings - Steamed Vegetables (snow peas, broccoli, and string beans) - Mapo Tofu - Fried Rice Good food for a great price, and the food also stays well the next day. Plus, there's a bar inside (we did not expect to see that) and they have a whole page of Polynesian Cocktails in their menu! We loved the old school charm of the spot, too. Ching Tao is awesome!

I heard about a new Chinese Take-Out spot opening in Newport, and couldn't' help but wonder what…read morespot they were taking over. Turns out, no spot at all, its in a hidden location inside the Midtown Oyster Bar, and they're doing takeout right from the Midtown Oyster hostess stand. I'm not kidding about the hidden part. There is no signage. No menus. No order window. Not one thing. You can order online, or by phone, and you need to ask the hostess for your food when you arrive. The whole operation has only been open for a week now, and there are a couple of bugs. Including the online menu not rendering correctly, the online orders not being announced to the hostess and staff, the online and telephone wait times being entirely different, and an extended wait for food. Not one of these is super surprising, its all brand new, there are bound to be bumps in the road. The good news, the food was pretty darn good. Even better, its not really anything like the Chinese take-out you might be use to. First off, everything was really fresh. Fresh produce, and handmade dishes are not exactly commonplace with this kind of menu. To see it here was a welcome delight. Especially good were the hand crimped Pork Dumplings. The steamed dough wrapper was soft and tender, the pork filling seasoned and mixed with crisp bright greens. The Szechuan Chili Sauce was so tart and delicious that I put the cap back on the remainder, and saved it in my fridge. Similarly, a new take on Egg Rolls, with Sausage and Mushroom so utterly successful. The crispy fried shell holding in a earthy, rich, umami bomb and the sauce a piquant spice. I didn't love everything, an order of the Pork Fried Rice felt a little bit like they had thrown everthing but the kitchen sink in, and forgot to add the rice. The flavors muddled together, kind of mushy and not great. Also not great, the hostess, who admittedly now has too many jobs, wasn't great with handling the new confusions, and really poor at handling other guests. If I had been treated as poorly as the group in front of me was, I wouldn't ever come back. Really fine, really well hidden surprise. B+

I will start this out with I was very excited to try this food out. The concept is a great idea…read moreand the offerings are very interesting as well. On Friday I ordered One shrimp wonton soup, sticky chicken wings, seafood lo mein, and a general thames chicken. Put the order in around 6pm said it would be ready for pick up at 7:45pm. Total of the order came to just over $65. Show up to pick up my food at 7:45pm and there are loads of people hanging out outside of the Midtown Oyster Bar, where you go to pick up the food. I go in and speak with the hostess who said all the Green Dragon orders are running about 30 min behind and to wait outside they will be calling names as soon as the food is ready. I go and wait outside, mind you it is raining out. I start talking to some of the others waiting who were telling me that they has pick up times for 7pm and it was now almost 8pm and they were still waiting for their food. This is not looking good. I stand outside waiting till around 9:10pm when I see them bring some bags up to the host area, and I decided to take it upon myself to see if it is my bag since the host was nowhere to be found. One was mine so I took it and left. No offer for compensation or anything, not even a sorry your order took so long. From the time I ordered till the time I got my food was 3 hours and 10 minutes... and an 1 hour and 25 minutes of that time was spent waiting in the cold rain. Not cool. Now on to the food. The food itself was pretty good. Not a three hour wait good, but definitely better than your average Chinese food. We loved the shirmp wonton soup. The broth was amazing and had so much flavor to it. I could have had that on its own. Our other favorite was the General Thames Chicken. The flavor was great and definitely different than any other Chinese food I've had before. I will say they could be a little more generous with the side portion of rice they provide. It was very small for two people sharing the dish (this was not the combo platter). The wings and the lo mein were good, probably a step up from your typical Chinese takeout spot. Overall I would give this place another shot in the future when hopefully they work the kinks out of the ordering system.
