    Vegetable fried rice and coconut shrimp
    Alicia C.

    Last nights food of coconut shrimp and vegetable fried rice was not appetizing at all the worse part the man yelling at because of his hurt pride. Then he hung up. I'm so disappointed

    What a nice surprise. It doesn't look like much from the outside but is nice inside. Food is very good. Hot and sour soup could use a tad of vinegar but all in all I give it an A. Mai tai was great

    Steamed Tofu and veggie fried rice.

    On the east coast for a visit and while up in the granite state and I figured I'd try this old "regular neighborhood" Chinese place for lunch. When I lived in the area, would stop by once in awhile and while it was "OK" it was never spectacular or even noteworthy. Usually just a place to stop for some American style Chinese food and some nondescript sushi. I guess today was no exception. The typical Chinese specials were if I remember, around $11.00 .Probably overpriced but since I don't live around here, can't really Judge. The sushi lunch specials selection was pretty paltry, so I passed on that and ordered steamed tofu and vegetables for my meal. Got a small bowl of wonton soup, which at least was hot. The fried rice was certainly not like I'm used to from the authentic places on the west coast and Nevada. The rice looked liked it was soaked in soy sauce , but was still pretty tasteless. The tofu looked like it was "raw" not steamed and the veggies were a decent amount of broccoli and snow peas with three (count 'em) slices of mushrooms. The dish was not served in a sauce, but rather with a small ramekin of a soy mixture on the side. Maybe I should have read the menu more carefully but I guess I was expecting a different style of prep and presentation. I mean it was Ok, but thats all I could say about it, just Ok. Service was decent.The female server (number 8) was friendly. Didn't bother to ask about a military discount. Will I be back? Probably not unless I'm really strapped for lunch.

    Yet another trip back home to New England from Myrtle Beach and Chinese is ALWAYS on my mind. You people here are privileged to have great Chinese food wherever you choose to get it! Not the same down South. So enjoy and celebrate it! Chen Yang Li delivers a great arrangement of typical Chinese fare in a great dining experience along with table cloths! Tonight we had a party of 10 and everything came to the table hot and delicious. Our server, Dave was definitely earning his tip! We racked up a $400 check before we was full. What a great dining experience we had. Only wish there was a bit more bourbon selection to choose from....but I'm here for the pu pu platter and fried rice so HOMERUN!!!

    Combination fried rice

    My wife and I just got back from over 12 months of touring the country and one of things we really missed was quality Chinese food. We hit up Chan Yang Li today only three hours after arriving home. Have to admit, it was pretty disappointing. We started with two Mai Tais, which was a mystery mix poured out of a plastic vinegar jug, then topped off with what we thought was liquor. The drinks just had a strange taste, possibly from fruit juice in the mix that wasn't fresh. They also tasted very weak. For dinner, we ordered a pu pu platter for two and a combination fried rice. The fried items on the platter were fresh and hot, even the egg rolls, but the beef teriyaki and the boneless ribs were both cold. When we mentioned it to the server, she basically just said sorry, some items are cooked first and cool off while the other items are being cooked. Funny, I've never encountered this at other restaurants, Chinese or otherwise. When I asked if they had heat lamps in the kitchen she said they used to have them, but they either don't work anymore or they just don't use them. This is absolutely ridiculous and no one there seems to care. The server didn't even mention it to a manager. No problems with the fried rice, it was served hot and tasted great. Given their lack of pride in what they're serving, we'll definitely be visiting the many other options in the area when we're in the mood for Chinese food

    The sushi is excellent! This is my go to place for sushi and Mai Thais. The service is quick with a friendly bartender. Environment is great and awesome for watching a game or golf. Highly recommend

    This place is such an amazing spot to have in Lowell. Parking is street parking, and you can pay at…read morethe kiosk or through the Passport app. It really depends on when you go since parking can get a little tricky. Inside, it's very cozy and has that Chinese cafe feel. It's clean, and they also have outdoor seating. My favorite are the individual window seats. I like sitting there and people-watching, though it's not exactly the busiest area for people-watching. Soup dumplings? Yes, please. The skin is slightly thicker than the ones I've had in New York, though they're still great. I never just order one thing here. They have a lot of variety with Chinese appetizers, dumplings, noodles, rice, and even mala hot pot. Do not pass up the braised pork rice bowl if you like hearty, authentic Asian dishes. I keep forgetting this place is here until the weather gets colder or I'm craving dumplings. Overall Service: Always so nice. There was one time I was on-call while dining here and got paged, and they helped box everything up for me to take home. I really appreciated that. Definitely a place I'm glad to have in the area.

    This place has the best dumplings in the area, their mala stir fry is amazing. A group of friends…read moreand I are almost regulars here. But today's experience was sub par to what we are used to. I didn't leave the establishment because I was with others who wanted to enjoy the food. The first issue was we couldn't seat where we wanted, it had to be where the waitress or manager decided we were to seat. Not one client in the restaurant. Then she brought the bill before we requested no one was waiting to be seated, then refused to split the bill when previous times with a different server was not a problem. We split the bill to only 2 because thats all she could do, me paying for 4 people she denies my tip amount and says if I don't tip a 18% , theywill charge me $80 extra for a party of 6, again we were only 4 people. I am very disappointed with my service and treatment, unfortunately I don't know the server name but she is one that speaks more English. Will I go back and be bullied into tipping what they want? Probably no.
