Village Gourmet Chinese Restaurant

Where is the curry sauce? There was only a millimeter of sauce at the bottom 🙂🙂🙂🥲 Also why is there 5 million carrots in the stir fry? 3 different cuts of carrots too, like why?? Who even likes carrots that much? Personally I don’t carrot all 😭 Spring rolls are bomb though! Come on guys step it up it’s like every 2 entrees out of 3 have something unusual about them.

I love the food here. It's fresh and excellent quality Chinese food, it's so far above the rest. The service is very good, and the restaurant is clean. Village Gourmet has a very busy take out business. My go to is the pan fried pork dumplings and the Thai Curry Chicken and Shrimp. I've been coming here for at least 15 years, and the food quality and preparation is always consistent. I'm a huge fan!

I've been eating here for over 25 years and it has always been consistent--until now. I don't believe in writing a bad review just to bash a place, but in the hope that they will fix what is wrong. The last few times I've been here the food was awful. Especially the fried items--the eggroll was inedible and had been cooked in month-old grease. Please fix whatever problems you guys are having as this used to be the best Chinese restaurant in Norwalk and friends would come from Westchester to eat here with me. The spare ribs are mostly fat and the General Tso's chicken had a burnt taste. I'm not sure if Eric is still there or not, but the quality has gone way down. Guys, please fix this as I want to come back--you had the market cornered--what happened?

So I have to start by saying that this has been our favorite Chinese food place in Connecticut, every time my family comes from overseas the first meal they always ask for is from this restaurant. And while they stay here we order every other day. So we have tried many things on the menu and everything is highly tasty! I mean, it keeps you wanting more, even when you have leftovers it tastes delicious the following day. The sesame chicken is soooo good, crispy, sweet and very well done. The shrimp is amazing too, the one with mango is highly recommended as it has fresh cut mango. We truly love the place for sitting and take out. If you eat at the restaurant, expect high quality service, they just keep you happy from beginning to end. Definitely love this place.

I have always enjoyed Village Gourmet and their beef with sauteed string beans was amazing...until now. We ordered on Christmas Eve. First it was an hour and 15 minute wait to pick up, and when I arrived, my order wasn't ready for another 20 minutes. I watch others come and go with their orders, not mine. Then when we got home, lo mein, beef with string beans, sesame chicken, moo shoo pork, all tasteless. Leftovers never survive in my house, this time I had to throw them away after 3 days because no one would eat them. Cross this place off my list for sure! Quality and taste have gone WAY DOWN! and SO EXPENSIVE!
