Authentic Chinese - so good. We found this place in the fall and got a chance to go again today as we up here again for another trip. Wish this place was in Delaware near us. 7 of us today. All the dishes were good. The celtuce salad was available. Never had something like it before. Looks innocent but it has a spice that kicks in the back of the throat. Recommend. The beef buns were another good appetizer. If you're not sure what you want, ask for suggestions. They didn't steer us wrong. FYI, the sliced beef with peppers are not bell peppers. Very tasty. read more

Four-month-old modern looking authentic Chinese eatery in a Route 140 shopping center offering dumplings, noodles, dim sum dishes, and a slew of authentic Sichuan entrees. Spacious seating, with many booths and a long bar. Reasonable pricing, with all but a few items under $20. Easy parking. Seafood Pastry: Unique item, flaky outer shell (think phyllo dough), and a moist filling with chunks of softer seafood, with shrimp the predominant flavor. Good mouthfeel, good flavor, and something new. Fried Pork Buns: A favorite dish of mine, and theirs are unique in that there's much more meat, the meat is incredibly tender, and the filling doesn't separate from the buns. Nice thin lacy "skirt" that forms from contact with the frying surface. Good flavor, good texture (browned bao dough different from Peking ravioli), great dish. Elite. Soup Dumplings: Perfectly cooked, perfectly filled (pork and slurpable soup), and good flavor. Served with a different soy-based dipping sauce from the pork buns. Really no negative here, but nothing distinguishing from other good ones I've had. Pork with Sweet Bean Sauce: Shredded strands of stir-fried pork with a sweet bean sauce. Think hoisin sauce but not quite as sweet. Some strips of greenery provide flavor and texture contrast to this 99% meat dish. Served with four pancakes similar to mooshi for do-it-yourself wraps. Solid item as long as you like sweet. Twice Fried Pork: One of my "barometer" dishes I try at any first-time visit to a Sichuan restaurant, and Time Travel knocked it out of the park. Bacony strips on the cusp of crisp with great flexibility to match the alluring flavor. Thin-cut leeks for extra complexity and contrast, perfectly worked into the mix. Appealing heat that tingled with every bite, but wasn't trying to blow your face off. The perfect mix of flavor and heat, and of meat and vegetable. Easily elite and my favorite dish so far. Boiled Beef in Spicy Broth: Some of the most velvety, tender beef I ever had, boiled or not. The sauce it was sitting in had plenty of heat and flavor throughout, though not as spicy as it looked. Dried chilies, minced garlic and cilantro added to the equation if desired. Stunning and a dish I'll return to for sure. Veggie Dumplings: Tender green exterior and a soft and tasty interior of tofu and mushrooms. Good mouthfeel, much different from crumbly veggie dumplings. Asparagus Lettuce Salad: A cold item with a tall mound of long, thin, shaved strips they're calling asparagus, but technically it's a Chinese vegetable called celtus. Crisp and refreshing, with hints of vinegar and hot oil, and way more than a hint of garlic. Scallion Pancake: Very good batter flavor, great crispness, and light enough to not fill you up before the entrees. Even though the sauce didn't have ginger, it's darker and thicker than most, and a little tangy. Garlic Wings: Their standard wings, tossed in the same sauce they use for Garlic Eggplant. Tasty stuff, even inside. Saucing a little spicy but mostly sweet. Sizzling Fish in Spicy Oil: A gigantic bowl and an absolute bargain, with the fish large, tender, and infused with the spicy oil. Thin sauce, brothy texture, and not as oily as most. Plenty of dried chiles. Very enjoyable. Eggplant in Garlic Sauce: Bright purple vegetable, likely fried (without batter) to get them bacony crisp on the outside, while lusciously tender inside. It's loaded with little garlic bits, thick, and more sweet than garlicky, making it approachable for American palates. Spicy and Sour Potatoes: Solid rendition, with matchstick-like shreds of droopy but al dente potato, with both heat and sourness present, but less sour than most. Taro Puff Pastry: This is an absolute must at the end of the meal. Served hot, crispy, flaky and with a mildly sweet hot taro filling. I can't imagine a superior version. Service: This was another strong suit, handled by two young, affable men who doubled as kitchen staff. You've got to love having a server who not only brings you the food but who also has a hand in making it and who knows the menu firsthand, able to answer questions about ingredients and dish composition. Great guys. If you're looking for something authentic, fresh, and different, without going to Chinatown, this is an exciting new place that's worth a drive. read more

Excellent authentic Chinese cuisine. Service is superb! We came in for a late lunch. Best XLB In the area. The wrappers are chewy and thin. Hot and sour soup has such a balance flavor and it was full of great ingredients! Tofu, black woodear mushroom, bamboo shoots. Chongzhie fish filets were excellent!! Stir fry bok choy was solid! Shrimp chow mein lunch combo was great! We came back two more times in a week! The food quality and portion are wonderful! High recommended this restaurant! We also tried Taiwanese black pepper steak noodles and sweet and sour fish filet! Both are our favorites!! The pan fried pork Buns are delicious too!!! Eggplants with spicy garlic sauce was ok. The egg plants were a bit overcooked. They should not be too mushy. However some pieces were a just slight too soft. Other than that, everything was incredibly delicious! The owner was super nice to us and friendly staff!!! read more

Time Travel Cuisine is an awesome addition to Norton! Very close to Attleboro! The food is authentic, with high-quality ingredients and perfectly balanced flavors, whether you prefer mild or spicy dishes. The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming--they even remembered us when we returned! We've been back twice already and have tried the fried chicken with dried chilies, dan dan noodles, Taiwanese beef noodle soup, green beans, mapo tofu, spicy Chongqing fish, and beef with green peppers--every dish has been amazing! The restaurant also has a full bar, which is a bonus. If you're looking for delicious, authentic Chinese food with outstanding service, this is the place to go. Highly recommend! We will be back for sure! read more

The food, the Service, the drinks all made with care. This is one of the rare Chinese style restaurants that actually makes their food fresh not leftover from the night before and reheated for the next daily lunch special. read more

Authentic and always spot on every time. Clean restaurant and take out option is always fresh.

By far, this has to be in the top five best Chinese food I've ever eaten. Passing through town popped into the nearby hotel (Fairfield Inn Mansfield) This restaurant was highly recommended by Olivia upon check in. We unknowingly arrived seven minutes before closing. However They were gracious & kind - we were seated - placed our order and enjoyed a full meal and it was beyond delicious. Every bite every Morsel delicious. The customer service from Naomi and her team was just top notch and I highly recommend that you stay at the Fairfield Inn in Mansfield and you eat here next time you're in the area. read more

Looked under hot and new in our area on yelp and decided to give it a shot. The restaurant is hidden in a mini mall. It's bigger than you'd expect - bright, clean and friendly. Our waiter was incredibly helpful. We had seen something on their website that wasn't on the menu and when we asked about it he let us know it was new and hadn't been added yet but said we could still order it (highly recommend it - the lamb roujiamo). He also let us know that unlike a lot of places the Dan Dan noodles we were ordering are served cold (they were so good, my husband and I ate every last drop) . In addition to those we ordered the pan fried pork buns (totally unique and delicious) and the salt & pepper shrimp. Everything came out hot and fresh and the price was right. We definitely plan on going back and trying a bunch of different items. read more

Great food - hot fresh and old school. Will be visiting again! I got the Dan Dan noodles and it was better than i expected!

Chow fun chicken was good but need more flavors. Noodles were fresh . More vegetables too needed. Wings I ordered garlic and charged 1.00 extra ? Why Wings were reheated, dry, and maybe reheated again and then sauced ... didn't take garlic and were dry cold. 4 wings 10 bucks... no thank you Owner was nice , friendly and restaurant is newly opened and I would try again as she is working to do things right... Other reviews all are positive , so maybe I had a limited bad lunch. read more

Not sure there is a better Chinese restaurant in all of New England. I'm actually speechless at how good the food was here. Reminds me of the authentic places you can find in NY. read more

Very delicious and authentic Sichuan food. The Mapo Tofu is amazing and the glutinous rice balls are the best i've had. Instead of only being a few rice balls, if you order those you get a whole meal-sized dish! The staff was nice and the place was clean.　是好吃的極了！ read more

Just had a stunning meal at this Sichuan-ish place deep in the Boston exurbs. It might be off the beaten track for many, but Time Travel deserves to be a destination for all Boston area lovers of Chinese cuisine. Ordered a bunch of Sichuan classics and to my admittedly non-expert but somewhat experienced palate they were all slightly different from what I expected but extremely delicious. For example, dan dan noodles with less garlic and more peanut sauce- I don't know if this is "traditional" based on the versions I've had before but it was so good. Cumin lamb- less cilantro and onion but brighter cumin and more tender flavorful lamb. Also tried some of the dim sum menu and was amazed. Seriously delicious dumplings. Just outstanding cooking - perhaps putting a personal stamp on traditional recipes. A very serious, refined personal stamp. If you're at the xfinity center in Mansfield and need excellent Chinese food, this is your spot. It's also just a few minutes off 95. Please keep this place going it is awesome! read more

This is a genuine hidden gem in Norton!! I visted based on past reviews and a recommendation from a friend. My party was very quickly greeted by the staff and then sat in the dining room. The space has a front desk, a bar, some booths in the bar room, and then a large dining room. They can surely accommodate any party size or need. All the staff that we met (owner, bartender, and server) were fabulous. Our server Kait (please forgive me if this is the incorrect spelling) was so attentive and outgoing. She knew most of the menu and was able to recommend things based on what she tried. She even dimmed the lights for me! To start our dinner we ordered a Scorpion Bowl for two. It tasted delicious and lasted the meal. I just wish they put the flaming liquor in the middle-- it always tastes so good and looks so fun! For food we began with the Pan-Fried Pork Buns. They came out very quickly, and were warm and soft. Exactly what I was expecting, and they were so satisfying. For entrees we tried the General Tso and Kung Pao Chicken entrees. The General Tso chicken was perfectly crispy with the beautiful glazed sauce over it. It was so tasty! The Kung Pao chicken was very spicy and flavorful. Both dishes were large portions of protein with large portions of rice on the side. They were more than filling and left both of us with a meal or two of leftovers!! Make your way over to Norton to try Time Travel Cuisine. I did not know it was in this plaza, and the food is out of this world!! read more

We went as a party of four after making a reservation on Yelp for my son's 11th birthday. He loves dumplings. The service was amazing and they even saw the little note about his birthday. We had edamame, pork buns, dumplings, scallion pancakes, chicken fingers, a fabulous squid dish, and some fried rice. I also had a Mai Tai. Everything was great. They brought us a bean paste desert dish to try for his birthday, none of us really liked it, but it was fun to try something different! It was reminiscent of going in to Chinatown for a nice meal, without the hassle of getting there. read more

Amazing food. We went for a midday midweek meal and were fortunate to speak with the owner at length. She was gracious, friendly and helpful. The restaurant was clean with a pleasant ambiance and the staff were polite and efficient. We recently were in NYC and this meal was equivalent to the quality and tastes we had there. The eggplant was amazing and the pork buns were fabulous! They were our favorites but it doesn't take away from the other dishes. The Lo Mein and soup dumplings were tasty, scallion pancakes were crisp but not greasy. Can't wait to go back! read more

I stopped in for lunch and the place was not busy maybe 2 other tables. The service was lousy almost like I was interrupting their day. The shrimp in lobster sauce was shockingly super sweet, I left that the teriyaki was void of any flavor only the boneless pork was decent. I sat in direct line of the bar and still could not get service. I had to flag down the waiter to get my check. This place is way overrated read more

Shocked at how delicious this hidden gem is. Food was quick and outstanding. It seemed like everyone who worked there had great pride in their food and in their service. We had three dishes (peking duck, eggplant in garlic sauce and fried rice) and they were all amazing! One of the best Chinese restaurants we've had in a long time. Try it. It's totally worth it. read more

Decided to try this restaurant cause I heard good things about the Time Travel Cuisine. It didn't disappoint. The Dim Sum is top notch. The celtuce salad and crab rangoon are very good.

The first problem was that the ingredients were not listed in the dishes! I would have liked to order something different but was unsure. We ordered two appetizers and two dinners and everything came at once! If we go again the dinners will be ordered after the apps are eaten! The food was very good though as was the service. Very friendly too! The atmosphere was ok, nothing special! read more

The food was terrific and the service friendly. I would classify the food as "modern Chinese," as opposed to 1950's Chinese restaurant food, which has its place pave read more

Looking forward to good Chinese since just moved to the area . Yesterday placed the following order to go Steamed dumplings would rate as a 4.5 until I had the leftovers and bit into a piece of grizzle Boneless ribs- 2 out of 5- these are not ribs/ just tuff seasoned pork slices General Chou chicken 1 out of 5 - generic coated chicken that is probably also used for sweet & sour and sesame chicken. No taste and little sauce. I was hoping to find a place to bring visiting family. Chinese restaurants need to learn that quality is more important than a short pickup wait! read more

Amazing authentic Chinese cuisine. It was like being back at the best Chinese restaurants in San Francisco where I'd be the only white customer. Served by Eddy, who was delightful. Recommend the twice cooked pork especially. read more

I ate there in June, was great. Went back last week, was okay. Noodles were soggy and bland. Crab rangoons were okay

Delicious, authentic food!! The hot and sour soup was super tasty, singapore noodles were some of the best I've had in a LONG time, the eggplant in garlic sauce was incredible, prepared in a unique way which was outstanding, and although Chicken and Broccoli tends to be a basic item in most places, this was excellent as well. I will definitely be a repeat customer when I want delicious Chinese food. The food is of NYC China town quality (I am a former NY'er) and will definitely be back to Time Travel Cuisine!!! read more
