Oversea Chinese Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
Best Asian food in town. I never have any issues with this place. Super friendly and always has smiles when I walk in.
Food is really good! The combos are my personal favorite, meat, rice & an egg roll. It's a smaller, family business with excellent service who always ensures you have what you need. It's a smaller place, more of a take out restaurant than a sit & eat, but it is an option.
Very quick service. Very good typical Chinese cuisine. We always have way more leftovers than we can eat! Great selection of food as well.
Very good, love the amount and flavor. Their crab Rangoon's are very good. I have run it to some chewy chicken but that might have Ben to deal with the drive home and the wait to eat.
Awesome people! Great Generals chicken and great lo mein. The twice cooked pork is another favorite.
This is by far my favorite Chinese restaurant ever. Family friendly. Were always treated with a smile. I love it. We can go in and they know exactly what we want and get it out in a quick time and its always amazing. My only problem is that they don't deliver outside of town.
These days it seems that most Chinese restaurants are buffets, but not Overseas. It is mainly a take out place, but there is limited seating inside. The food is terrific and the portion sizes are very reasonable compared to the cost. Two people can eat here with an appetizer for under $20.00. My personal favorite on the menu is their Hunan Beef Combination plate that comes with the entree, pork fried rice, and an eggroll. They take cash and checks only, so don't bother trying to pay with a debit/credit card here.
