Main Wah Restaurant

Been going to this place for years and the food is always flavorful and the service is always friendly. Its our stand-​by Chinese take out place. I only wish they delivered!

Best Chinese food in the Stratford, CT area! Food is always great and plus the owners are very friendly.

Not bad if your in a hurry and want to bring some Chinese food home. It seems like every time i go there the prices have gone up.

I’ve seen this restaurant for quite awhile… in my home town of Stratford. Last night I was on my way home from work and decided to give it a try. The place overall is quite clean. It looks to be worked by a husband and wife team. I ordered chicken noodle soup and the boneless rib combination with fried rice and also steamed dumplings.
I got home and opened up the soup and couldn’t wait to taste it. The first thing I tasted in it was… ginger. I don’t mind a slight ginger taste but it tasted pretty gingery so I didn’t care for it. I didn’t eat all the soup cause of that. Then I opened the steamed dumpings… hoping it wasn’t heavily gingered. I cut into a dumpling and it seemed like it had like a brown sauce in it. The kind they usually give you with it… which I don’t care for. Wasn’t a good taste. If they left out that sauce I think they would’ve been somewhat good. The funny thing about the boneless ribs I hate when I order them… and someone cooks the hell out of them. And I watched as they went under the broiler. They kept coming out and being re-​arranged and put back in. Must’ve happend about 5 to 6 times. I opened them with the fried rice and I was happy they were burnt but they were quite over cooked and dry. The fried rice was dry too. So… all in all… I didn’t care for my dinner. When I spoke to the guy behind the counter I was wondering how long they were there for… he said 30 years. Don’t know how they could’ve lasted this long with this kind of food… unless it was different years ago. Hopefully they change their ways…

This is some of the best Hole-​in-​the-​wall Chinese food around. The seasme chicken is great. None of the grisly bits of chicken you find in other places. Our favorite is the cream cheese wontons, a tad greasy but sooooo good. The wonton soup offers a huge wontons with a great pork filling in a nicely seasoned broth. It is one of my favorite soups to reheat the next day for lunch. This place is cheap with most entrees running from 8 – 10 bucks.

Best Chinese food in town!!! ‘nuf said.
