China Sea Restaurant

Ok I’ve driven by this place on Blue Hill numerous times… Thank God i never stop to eat in there.
A city health inspector on Friday shut China Sea, 1202 Blue Hill Ave. for a variety of health issues, some of which could have put patrons at risk of a foodborne illness, after a disgusted customer posted a Facebook video of a rat scurrying through its waiting area.
According to the inspector’s report, the violations included a «hand sink observed being blocked by strung up fish and mop bucket» — but at least that sink was working, unlike another sink intended for cooks that wasn’t, and which was covered over with a large can.
Also found: «Cooked egg rolls observed being stored in card board that was previously used to store raw chicken;» cooked meats left sitting at room temperature on counters, raw shrimp thawing at room temperature, and «dried fish observed being hung from a long light bulb in the main kitchen area.»
A cooler was just generally disgusting, including having «evidence of a live cockroach;» there were what appeared to be rat droppings on the kitchen floor and «what appears to be a raw sewage line in the basement storage area is open and appears to be draining into a bucket.»
The should just close that place down.

I order from here all the time and it’s always good. I love the way they prepare the particular plate that i get which is the shrimp fried rice with chicken wings and spare ribs, excellent layout. I dock it one star because sometimes they are a little slow with delivery and also because they seem to be a little too expensive. Besides that this is my number 1 option when ordering Chinese.

The worst place ever, placed the order at 6:31pm and its 8:18pm and no food. Never ordering from here.

I used to go to this place as a kid when I lived in Dorchester and the food was great then. I now live in Miami, but when ever I go back to Boston to visit I always make sure that China Sea and Simcos are two of my stops before leaving the city. I normally get the same thing which is the pork fried rice with spare ribs and chicken fingers. The Chinese food restaurants in Miami doesn’t come close. It is by far the best Chinese restaurant that I have ever been to. I have a friend in Miami who thinks that Chinese food is all the same but she has never been to China Sea.

Honestly the best Chinese food place in Dorchester. I’ve looked high and low around town and this place can’t be beat. Ribs are out of this world and the portions are huge for the price. I’ve been coming here for 11 years and I always will!

I won’t eat Chinese from any where else! Best ribs around along with beef teriyaki! I love there egg foo yong! They cook to order, hot and ready! Big portions! THE ONLY THING THAT SUCKS — Cash ONLY!

This is one of our local Chinese food joints and it’s easily our favorite.
We always get the same thing (staples: Pork fried rice, Chicken Wings/​Fingers, Crab Rangoons, Spare Ribs) and it’s always solid.
Their food does the trick every time — highly recommend this place!
CASH Only
