I always used to love the food here, but the last 2 times I've been disappointed with my meals. Kung Pau Chicken tasted like fish...ugh...I was really looking forward to my meal, but it tasted so bad I ended up throwing it away. First time I have ever thrown away Chinese food.

YEARS AGO , THEIR FOOD WAS ACTUALLY GOOD, COOKED AND PROTON WAS WORTH THE PRICE. OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS, 9 OUT OF 10 ORDERS I WOULD GET WERE ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. I ORDER GENERAL TSO ALMOST EVERY TIME. I TRY RO CONVINCE MYSELF THAT THIS TIME IT'LL BE A LOT BETTER THAN LAST TIME AND THIS TIME IT'LL TASTE BETTER AND THE CHICKEN WILL ACTUALLY BE COOKED AND WON'T SEEM LIKE LABORATED CHICKEN. AND ONCE AGAIN THE MINUTE I GET MY ORDER IT IS THE SAME DISAPPOINTMENT LIKE EVERY OTHER TIME AND I AM JUST HAD ENOUGH OF IT. THE FACT THAT WHEN I GO TO EAT MY FOOD I HAVE TO ACTUALLY SECOND GUESS IF IT'S REAL CHICKEN OR IF IT'S MYSTERY MEAT REALLY CONCERNS ME. THE CHICKEN IS ALWAYS SO STRINGY LIKE SPAGHETTI STRINGY, AND IT'S BARELY EVER COOKED. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I'VE HAD TO RECOOK IT MYSELF BECAUSE IT WAS COMPLETELY RAW AND THE COATING WAS DOUGHY. NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT THE PORTION SIZES THAT THEY'VE BEEN GIVING PEOPLE LATELY IS ABSOLUTELY INSULTING. I RECEIVED MY FRIED RICE WHICH THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY WAS A FULL PORTION RICE. IT WAS AT LEAST A HALF A CUP OF RICE NOT EVEN A FULL CUP OF FRIED RICE. THE FACT THAT THEY WERE VOTED MOST FAVORITE CHINESE FOOD A FEW YEARS AGO MAYBE AT THAT TIME WAS ABSOLUTELY TRUE. BUT LATELY THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO FIT THEIR REPUTATION ANYMORE.I HAVE BEEM CONTEMPLATING ON WEITHER TO CALL THE MAINE STATE HEALTH INSPECTOR AND THE FDA BOARD.. I CANT EVEN BEGIN TO EXPLAIN HOW SICKENING IT IS TOO GET CHICKEN THAT DOESNT EVEN TASTE OR LOOK LIKE DARK MEAT CHICKEN. AND TONIGHT WAS THE LAST STRAW. GOT GENERAL TSO AND IT WAS SO SPICY, AND SO GREASY THAT I COULDN'T EVEN EAT MY MEAL. SMH I ATE A BITE AND GOT A MOUTH FULL OF PEPPER FLAKES. AND WHEN I CALL TO COMPLAIN EVERYTIME THEY SCREW UP ,THEY TREAT YOU LIKE YOURE LYING ABOUT THE BAD FOOD PR PORTIONS AND THAT YOU DONT DESERVE TO BE HEARD OR COMPENSATED. TIME TO SHUT HER DOWN! CHINA VILLA HAS LOST ITS LOYAL CUSTOMERS!!!!!

Had take out was unbelievably delicious only thing was my order had beef teriyaki in two different dinners but wasn’t given. Simple mistake but for an order of over $100 they should have made sure it was all there also no fortune cookies were provided. The food that we did get was outstanding though. Will return but check before I leave that everything i paid for is there.

Been wanting to try this place for a while and am kicking myself now that I haven't tried them sooner! Went on a Friday night for take out and they were absolutely slammed, which I knew was a good sign! The general tsos chicken is probably the best general tsos iv had in Maine, perfect breading and the sauce is amazing. Chicken wings were fried to perfection and everything in the pu pu platter was awesome. Will definitely be making this place a regular stop!
Got exactly what we wanted and crab rangoons were great! Our go to take out is place in Westbrook.

Decent prices and the portions are large. Not the best Chinese food I have ever had but it's good. Lots of options. I don't think the inside is open anymore, I always get take out. They also do delivery in Westbrook and surrounding areas.

2nd worst Chinese food I've had. Ordered General Tso's Chicken dinner meal. The chicken was basically undercooked donut holes with a tiny bit of chicken in the middle. Hot & sour soup was burnt and fried rice was black with soy sauce. I could go on, but like the food, I can't finish it.

There aren't many Chinese restaurants to choose from around here, so I figured I'd try this out. I don't know how so many people give this place such good reviews. I had other errands to run, so I decided to eat there - the woman taking orders was visibly annoyed that I wanted to eat at the restaurant. I ordered chicken and broccoli and got the egg roll lunch special. The food was super greasy and the chicken and broccoli was drenched in brown sauce and still didn't have much taste. The pork fried rice had clearly been sitting out for a while and tasted old. I didn't bother eating even half of my food because it wasn't worth it! Definitely won't be back.
Their service was great the food was delicious and made incredibly
