Wonderfully flavorful food that not many places in the area can create. My new go-to since my old place is just too far since moving. If I'm in the Lincoln, RI area, I go to Asia Grille. I live much closer to Joyful House now and am very happy I found it. This is as close to my old standby as I've been able to find, and it is extremely similar, so I couldn't be more delighted. Delicious food at a great price makes it so much better

Best Chinese and sushi in the area hands down. Delicious scorpion bowls too. Only complaint would be the high turnover of wait staff.

Favorite spot for quite a while now. Was afraid the food was going to taste different after they changed owners. But ordered yesterday and the food was still delicious. Please don’t change a thing!!!
