Super disappointed! This has been my go to place for many years but the last few times not so much. Food is bland portions are small for same/higher price. Their egg rolls were to die for but now they are at least a third smaller and tasteless. Convenient but gonna have to find a new place . There was so much celery in my last order it was insane!

Quaint little spot in the town of Putnam. Food is good quality Is good. Gen tsao was a bit spicier than usual this time so brought it home for left overs .

Family of four with two kids everybody had a great meal. very high-quality best Chinese food we've had in years. Went on a Friday night. It was packed and they Kept up no problem!

This is my new favorite buffet. It’s a fine and friendly little buffet. They don’t put too much food out at once as it is less crowded than the other buffet down the road. Fresh food is coming out all the time. And Sesame Balls! My favorite! Look at the size of that sesame ball!!!

Best Chinese food in southern VT. Their fried rice is authentic, you can tell they use real chicken stock. The General Tso’s chicken is full of flavor, spicy if you like it. Portions are very generous. They also went above and beyond for me when I was late to pick up my order. They didn’t need to wait for me, but they did. The extra kindness was the cherry on top.

On vacation in Brattleboro. This place has excellent food. Fast service. I recommend the beef with broccoli and the crab rangoon.

Came here on our way how from NY. The food was excellent! Happy we made the stop! Staff were friendly and welcoming! If ever in the area, I would stop again. Pineapple fried rice was awesome!!

Duck with pine nuts, rice and vegetables was one of the tastiest meals I’ve had. Service was just right. Good, unpretentious, and reasonably priced restaurant. Very open seating for groups and individuals. Dinner, two drinks and tip under $50.

The food is always delicious; however, that never makes up for the fact that you always have to wait well over an hour for your food, even though they tell you food will be ready in 45-50 minutes. I tried giving them the benefit of the doubt but it has now been 4 different times where I had to wait 90 minutes for my food. They should just be honest at time of order of how long the wait will be so that you can make an informed decision about waiting or ordering from Joy Wah.

Food was terrible, it was so greasy the bag it came in was saturated with grease. PU PU platter was filled up with chicken nuggets, fried shrimp was like a thick greasy donut. The egg roll was dripping of grease and no idea what the filling was. Sweet and sour soup no flavor what so ever. Chef special S10 the chicken really salty and no Hunan style flavor at all. We did complain and returned our food and got our money back.This place is take out only at this time.

This was our first time visiting. We had a great dinner at Joy Wah. The hostess was very welcoming. We had prompt service from our waitress. We orderd a mix of appetizers and cocktails. The food was fresh and delicious. We loved the setting being in an old house on the river. Our daughter enjoyed it too. We will be back.

We have driven past Joy Wah many times over the last decade and finally gave it a try this past weekend. Given the mixed reviews I saw on Yelp, I was hopeful but did not set my expectations very high. As others have said, the decor is a bit dated but the restaurant was clean. The river view made up for the outdated decor. I made a reservation as recommended by the website since we had a party of 6. Several tables were occupied but there seemed to be plenty of availability. We were seated immediately and our waiter asked us what beverages we wanted. He took our order and the food came out efficiently and piping hot. We ordered egg rolls and vegetable potstickers for appetizers. Both were delicious. The dumplings came with a yummy dipping sauce. I tried to choose items that were more authentic/home style or items that my family usually orders at a Chinese restaurant in NYC Chinatown. Entrees included pork fried rice (no soy sauce), scallops with pea pods with ginger/scallion, walnut prawns, bean curd with vegetables, chow mei fun (aka subgum rice noodles), and sesame chicken (for the kids). The waiter was very accommodating as I asked for “white” fried rice (no soy sauce), the mei fun which I did not see on the menu and less sodium in all the dishes. Everything was delicious. My only negative comment is that the sauce in the bean curd dish was too salty. Other than that, we were all impressed with the quality of the food and had leftovers. Our interactions with other employees were positive as well. One of the female employees let my kids keep some Christmas origami decorations they saw by the Christmas tree up front. Another lady appreciated my kids’ admiring her goldfish tank. We had a great experience and will be back soon!

I placed an order through Uber Eats that was labeled gluten free, the salt and pepper shrimp. I have an allergy and cannot eat gluten. When it arrived it was cooked in batter. I called and they said the batter is not gluten free. I asked for some remedy to the problem since I paid $19.20 for the entree and could not eat it because it was mislabeled. They had no solution. I had a terrible experience.

food was nasty all the way around. Crab rangoons were way over cooked as well as had very little to no filling. I ordered sweet and sour chicken and there was no sweet and sour sauce. the egg roll was also over cooked and the inside was cold. The batter on the chicken was overcooked as well but the chicken inside was not cooked all the way. I ordered this at 12:50 they said it would be 20 minutes. I picked up at 1:15 the food should have been fresh instead of overcooked and stale. Overall terrible experience and I do not recommend.

Been ordering for years and will continue to do so ! I always eat their food too fast to take pics ! General Tso Chicken is my favorite here

Do not get the boneless spare ribs. They burn them till they’re black and dry. I’ve ordered from here multiple times and everytime the food was charred black and all dry. Peking house is much better!

Really great Chinese food buffet. The food is constantly being filled on the buffet and every item we had was delicious. I can’t believe I didn’t go here before but I will now be a regular. The price is really fair for dinner and every time we drive by it is packed so you know it is good food.

Very nice place as a person who grew up coming here. Fairly clean. Food is usually fresh or recently cooked. Service is lovely. They ask if you’d like refills, take your plates when it seems done. Would love some cleaning and decorating done. Nice place to go.
