Customer Reviews
Kim Lai has a rating of 4.3 out of 5 based on over 476 reviews on Google
This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in New Hampshire, no question. As someone who’s savored Chinese cuisine across New England, I was blown away by the exceptional appetizer platter we ordered. Every bite was tender, fresh, and bursting with vibrant flavors, showcasing the kitchen’s incredible skill. We sipped Mai Tais at the bar, each one perfectly balanced and refreshing, adding to the relaxed, cozy atmosphere that made unwinding so easy. I was so impressed I bought a really cool restaurant shirt as a keepsake! The service was outstanding—warm, attentive, and spot-on with recommendations. Beautifully presented platter and an unforgettable experience. Can’t wait to return!
We may have found our new go-to Chinese restaurant. Kim Lai exceeded our expectations - the food quality is excellent, & service is friendly. After reading through reviews, I wasn't expecting much, but we left happy and full. The dining room is simple and has a bunch of booths with comfy seating. We ordered a selection of appetizers, drinks, and main entrees - all came out hot, and the portions were huge. The fat egg rolls and saucy pork lo mein were the standouts. We'll be back anytime we are craving Chinese food.
Small place with varied offerings.Good price point and portions.Beef teriyaki was good and tender.Boneless ribs were really charred and red sauce had strange taste
Decent food but not very accommodating for gluten free. Wasn’t very busy but server was not very attentive. She didn’t understand the menu and was difficult to understand so another staff member helped explain the options. Food portions were generous for lunch items we ordered. Prices were reasonable! Bathrooms are clean and my fortune came true…I was hungry after 1hour 😆 not exactly what you want when going out for lunch.
Very yummy. Second time here. Crab rangoons are delicious. Chicken wings were huge. House rice was moist and plentiful. The Shrimp with lobster sauce was a lil salty but yummy tender shrimp and the bone in ribs had a great flavor but a weee over cooked. Definitely going back. The service was awesome.
Best soup ever. Honestly this is probably the best American Chinese food I’ve ever had in my whole entire life. Lunch specials are delicious and everything is fresh and hot and you get tons of food and value for your money, plus the restaurant is super clean and the staff are friendly. Just try it. there’s a reason why this restaurant is always packed.
Kim Lai is a gem! The food is consistently fresh and flavorful, and you can tell they use high-quality ingredients. The butter chicken and the curry was so good. The staff is friendly and attentive, making every visit a pleasure. Definitely a must-try.
