China Joy

General Tso’s chicken was sooooo amazing taste. Cantonese seafood fried noodle was great too. Taste wise, it was five stars. I am sure I will be back especially for general tso’s chicken. Their sauce was amazing.

Good Chinese food. The food quality is about what you would expect for a Chinese restaurant in the US. I recommend the cashew chicken. They added plenty of cashews! Also, ask for extra spice, not just spicy.

A genuine Chinese restaurant. Not that all Chinese restaurants aren't genuine, but there are two menus. You can order "Americanized," but there is a separate Chinese menu, and the specials of the day are sublime. Never once been served other than delicious food, and it was served and eaten with joy. Diners who are disappointed seem to be those who are best off with an all-fried buffet and pupu platter place. I emphasize, too, that prices are very reasonable. A fancier dish with lobster or genuinely fresh crab, should, and does, cost more. But the "regular" fare is absolutely low to medium in price.

This place was like finding a goldmine.

We reached bar harbor a lil late in the evening and found everything closed, except this and a Mexican restaurant nearby. It was a lil cold and we wanted to eat something hot and spicy. We thought of checking out this place. And we are so glad, we did :-)

We ordered chicken ginger n garlic fried rice, chicken dumplings, pan fried and Chicken fried rice . Everything turned out to be exceptional. The chicken was tender, and the rice was well fried in hot sauces. It all blended so well.

My son loved the dumplings, they were so juicy and yummy( my mouth is watering as I type this!!!).The waitress was also very friendly to us.

I think this is a hidden gem on the bar harbor street. We recommend this place and will definitely visit it again someday!!

Took me right at closing with zero issues. Portions were great and food tasted super flavorful. Friendly young lady took my order and listened to my hiking tales lol. Recommend.

Amazing food. I kept going to this place everyday during my stay in Bar Harbor

I had a wonderful time here. I have seen China Joy for the last couple years of visiting Bar Harbor and I always wanted to stop in. I am glad now that I did. I can say I walked away from this place happy and very satisfied. I loved the atmosphere, food, drinks, and the service. All very good. Definitely a worthwhile stop in my own personal opinion. I will.be returning again.

In town from PA and took a chance on China Joy and was beyond pleased with the quality and taste of the food.

We were in Bar Harbor during the off season (late April, specifically) and had dinner at China Joy one night. It was one of the best meals we had on our week-long trip. The dumplings were the best we've ever had anywhere - ever. The hot and sour soup was delicious, as was the Szechuen Chicken, fried rice, and Lo Mein. Fresh food, wonderful service, friendly staff - I can't recommend this restaurant enough. Seriously good Chinese food!

I surprised that I had walked by this place in the past but had never gone until just recently. The food was great, and the portions were large. We had to take two boxes of food back and my wife and i only ordered two dishes. The staff was also very friendly. The prices were average to other asian restaurants.

We called to order takeout not realizing it was one minute before closing time. Not only did they not complain, but made everything and even made something we ordered that was no longer on the menu (we had an old one from online). The food was better than expected with good seafood.

As a Chinese, I didn't realize the best lobster on the island is from this Chinese restaurant. The lobster they offer is hard shell lobster, which is quite different to the soft-shell from other places and the meat is tighter and chewier. I also like the way they cook lobsters, that brings more flavor than steaming them.

Fast clean place friendly. Makes sure several times they have your order right. In expensive. Food is fresh and of great quality and quantity. I have zero complaints. Thank you guys for your fantastic food and service. I will be back to have it again.

Listen up, you ain’t getting anything cheap in Bar Harbor, including Chinese food, but after you get over the prices, the food is A-mazing! Look around, it’s the only chinese place within 20 miles. You pay over $50 for whale watching and $200 for a motel room around here, so count yourself lucky paying $13 for a pretty authentic Chinese dish. The American Chinese food has excellent flavor, and if you want real Chinese food, ask for the Chinese menu.

Stopped by for lunch today and was not disappointed! I got the spicy curry calamari; my wife got the spicy chicken lo mein and we split an order of the spicy garlic broccoli with pork fried rice!!! Nothing bad to say about the food, came out hot and fast.... absolutely amazing!!!!!

I can say confidently that this is the best Chinese food in the area (Hancock County.) The food, including the classic Chinese American favorites, are cooked to perfection: not soggy or overdone. The wonton soup is made so that you can add your wontons separately- not sitting in a big pot getting mushy all day. The crab rangoon is crispy with plenty of crab. Fresh vegetable rolls are addictive; meats are delectable, and the house fried rice and lo mein are filled with fresh goodies. All for the same or less than your typical Chinese place. Lobster, too! Familiar, friendly service and cozy atmosphere complete this treasure.

Eat here at least once a week, shrimp lo mein is great and so is their chicken Pad Thai (gluten free).

Great general tsos, salt and pepper chicken and scallion pancakes. Our server Queenie was always great and attentive. 10/10 would recommend

Lots of choices for anyone, vegan, seafood, meat! The Wok fried Lobster is great! And great Wonton soup priced too low for the amount and quality!

20 mins from time I finished order to when I got the food. Good quality and very yummy.
