Oriental Delight

Excellent atmosphere, friendly bar tenders, and amazing food. I like to stop in for drinks, as they have nice music, and it is not to loud which makes for good conversations.
I also order takeout quite often. My go-​to is their spicy chicken wings, crab Rangoon’s, veggie lomein, and for the sushi lovers… The dragon roll! So tasty, and good delivery times!

Hands down the best Chinese food around! The sushi is great, the quantity is absurd and DEFINITELY FILLS YOU for the money. It’s quick, delivery is fast as well. The flavor is on par and the food is always hot!

Excellent in all respects! Sushi is of high quality and Chinese food is equally good. I love the specialty cocktails and bar is even nice.

Been ordering here at least once or twice a week for years. My last review was probably 5 stars and i have no idea what happened!!! Maybe the opening of the new hibachi grill??? The food has deteriorated horribly over the last 3 months. The sushi is clearly not fresh nor prepared professionally. The chicken wings are now very low quality chicken parts which is heart breaking because they used to be the best. The noodle dishes have no flavor and its obvious they are cutting corners. I hope the owner wants to fix this, its sad to see this slow but consistent decline. What happened???

Ordered wonton soup and it only had 4 wontons. It was primarily soup, which was bland. How can a Chinese restaurant mess up something as easy and common as wonton soup! Avoid this place.

Always a pleasant experience! My wife and I probably eat there once every two weeks. Frank, the owner, is one of the nicest guys around. The staff is always friendly and prompt. I highly recommend their sushi, it is fantastic! The bar is also a great place to relax and catch a game if you aren’t looking to hang out with the college kids at the other local bars.

I really HATE giving this place 3 stars… cause I absolutely LOOOOVE their Sushi. So amazing. I come here all the time and rave about the food. My boyfriend hates Sushi but loves Chinese. I finally got him here and our service was horrible. our waitress was slow, it took forever for our scorpian bowl to get to the table (I think she actually forgot about it) then our apps took forever. and then food came out right after the apps. Needless to say there’s only about 1 server in there that I’ve had any luck with and unfortuately he can’t always be there. lol.

Quick, well priced and above all they have cold noodles in peanut sauce! One of my favorite dishes and sadly not found easily in the New England places. Over all great good and laid back. I’d highly recommend it.

The sushi lunch special is totally rad for the price. Some of the best tasting sushi I’ve had on the east coast. It’s like a drug that keeps me coming back for more, requiring at least a weekly fix.

Our sushi smelled like old fish and management had no interest in fixing our situation. It was the worst customer service I have ever received (probably because we didn’t get any).

So, the last few visits have been just «ok» and I keep going back in hopes that it will improve. When this place first opened it was exciting, the atmosphere was fun and the food was good. It has just gone downhill since then, from food, to service and atmosphere. We usually dine in the bar.
Most recently, we went in around shift change. It was difficult to tell which tables were clean and which were dirty, the most obvious having a crusty bowl of fried rice on it (employee lunch??). A young Asian man took our drink order, and brought mine by. Several minutes later, the bartender rushed in and jumped behind the bar to make my partners drink. The bar was just picking up, and shortly after placing our food order, the bar was half full. Immediately, the bartender was slammed with patrons, orders, mixing drinks for the dining room and worst of all, stocking an empty bar. The lunch shift didn’t even have the decency to clean the tables, fill the condiments, the bar mixes or supplies. It was a mess and we felt bad, trying to keep our requests to a minimum so she wouldn’t be in the weeds.
I asked the male server for sugar as he walked by (our condiments were empty). He returned with a handful, put them on our table and said «you have someone helping you». WHAT?! RUDE! Great teamwork.
I wasn’t going to write a review, but then I used the restroom and it just pushed me over the edge. It was dark, the stall doors didn’t lock, and of the 2 toilets, one was clogged. To top it off, it was filthy. Paper towels all over the floor, dust caked on the light fixtures and dingy walls. The whole thing needs an acid wash from top to bottom.
You know what they say about restaurants? Their bathrooms are a telltale sign of their kitchen cleanliness.
Of the food we ordered, the miso tasted a little «cheesy». Ew. The California roll tasted off, and the Chinese was just heavy and flavorless. It doesn’t even compare to the quality they used to serve.
We won’t be back. There are too many quality options in our area. I don’t need to be privy to workplace drama (and deal with the resulting attitude) when I’m simply there to enjoy a meal. Disappointing.

So on the recommindation of a family friend we came here for the Fish in spicy oil dish (shui Zhu yu). We were not disappointed– the dish was authentic and delicious. The restaurant combines Chinese with Japanese food in a restaurant and bar. We only tried the Chinese food and all of the dishes that we ordered were tasty and served at a reasonable speed. The owner and staff were friendly. If your in the area its worth a visit.

Excellent Sushi, though they did lag a bit on getting it to the table one time. Will be back though since it is the best place for sushi in Dover and the prices are reasonable.

The food here is great, affordable pricing, good atmosphere when dining in. It gets very busy here Friday thru Sunday so make sure you’re not too hungry when trying to get a table!
I gave 3 stars because even though dining in here is okay, their delivery driver lacks essential people skills. Recently he delivered to my work establishment and was insulting and rude to the girls I work with. He insulted the «look» of our building, and said our business would fail. He kept insulting us even after we paid him, and couldn’t take the hint to leave.
Needless to say we won’t be ordering lunch for «the office» here anymore. It’s a shame because we all love Chinese!

Crab Rangoon, which I’m super picky about, is one of my favorite things here. The beef and broccoli and sesame chicken are great too. I’ve only had delivery so I can’t speak to the actual restaurant, but I have been pleased about the timeliness.

I am reviewing the sushi, as I have not touched the chinese menu here yet. I come here often for sushi, and I have found that oriental delight is by far the best sushi bar in Dover. the fish is always fresh, and I recommend talking to the sushi guys about it as they more often than not will let you sample some. My favorite maki is the «CAA» (cuke-​avo-​asparagus) roll. the rice is always on point, and the veggies have the perfect crunch. also recommend the Alaska roll. this is my go-​to when I’m not in Portsmouth. :)

We had a so so meal over a month ago. One entrée came out way to spicey. We went back again tonight and left again disappointed. The entrees we usually get were made different and again way to spicey. I don’t mind heat but my wife couldn’t eat one. The other was greasy and tasteless. Apps and rice were great. Service was also good. I heard our waitress apologize to other tables also. Something must be up in the kitchen. New cooks? I don’t think my wife will let us go back. Hope they fix the issue as we liked going here.

This is our go to place for sushi. They have the best spice tuna roll and their red dragon roll is also fantastic. The hot and sour soup is my favorite on the seacoast, and when I’m craving great Chinese (think pork fried rice and general gaos chicken) the OD never lets us down! The owner Frank is also the nicest guy, and if you come here frequently, he will most definitely remember you and greet you every time he sees you, making it feel like you’ve been coming here for years. If you need dinner plans for tonight, go here!

We go all over the country and order sushi. Andy by far is the best Sushi Chef we have run into. The grade of fish far surpasses that of other restaurants close by and farther away (Cartelli’s and Surf Sushi).
The hot and sour soup is my favorite which I usually get instead of Miso soup.
The rolls will always hold together just like Andy’s tightly made al carte items. A great variety and always a pleasure.
Andy will put a smile on your face just as my new favorite waiter, I will call him Sing song.
Thank you Frank for having such a nice place.

Food is solid although the chinese food is not good, customer service is mediocre, and prices are solid.
I tried the shrimp hand roll, spider roll, and the chicken with broccoli dinner special. The chicken and broccoli had very little flavor and did not taste good. The shrimp hand roll was pretty good though, and the spider roll was delicious, though the rice did not hold together like it should. I definitely recommend the japanese food more than the chinese.
Customer service was erratic and strange. One of the waiters didn’t seem to enjoy his job, and appeared to avoid eye contact whenever I tried to get his attention. The waitress was much nicer, although she has a tendency to forget a request, like a drink refill or to get soy sauce.
Bill Tip: The soft drinks are bottomless, even though it doesn’t say anywhere!
