Review Crystal Island Chinese Restaurant - Denver

C Chavez
Ordered the garlic shrimp and sweet and sour combo with wontons and egg rolls. Loved it all. Says that the garlic shrimp is hot and spicy but I did not find it spicy at all. I think the cream in the wontons could have been melted a bit more or at least warmer, but they were still pretty good. Price differs from in store menu/ online to end receipt but either way the portion for price was very reasonable. Not fast dining but not slow, nice and quiet, not too busy for a Tuesday lunch. We grabbed boba and enjoyed both coffee and mango flavors

We were in the area and had a hankering for Chinese food. In our search, this restaurant had 4.5 stars, so why not? When we went inside, there was only 1 other person dining. My first thought was, "If people really like this place so much, why is no-one here?" When we sat down, the table was very sticky, to the point I didn't want to even touch the table! The bench seats are in bad shape, the carpet is very old, and the inside could just use some tlc. It took a while for someone to greet us after sitting down due to taking phone orders. So when she finally came by, she explained that most people just order for take-out or delivery. She also apologized for the sticky table and knows that has been a problem. At this point, not impressed. We had ordered our food and it didn't take a long time to be brought to us. The plates looked delicious. And they were delicious! The Hunan Combination was fantastic. Great sauce, expertly cooked. The orange chicken was superb. Perfectly crispy, the meat inside was super moist. Just absolutely mind blowing how great everything tasted. I joked with the owner when I was paying my bill, saying I had am 80% discount coupon. She told me sure, if you want to help do the dishes. She was a wonderful woman. Kind, funny and pleasant. I would easily come back here again. I recommend you try it too. You are missing out on the experience if all you do is take-out.

!BEST CHINESE IN NORTH SUBURBS! The most tender tasty chicken I think I might have ever had in take out Chinese. You can tell they dont skimp on product quality! They are a small mom and pop shop, support small business! 😄

I've gotten takeout a few times here. The wontons are top notch, along with the beef and chicken dishes. I've gotten noodles (lo mein & Chow fun) and those vary in how good they are. Not bad but they can be inconsistent. I'd still recommend giving the noodles a shot regardless.

They never miss! I crave the salt pepper shrimp and it always hits the spot . The woman who takes my order knows who I am before I can order which lets me know they care about their customers. Do not hesitate ! if you stumbled on this, don’t waste another second . You won’t regret it , the quality and the portions , just makes sense. Already thinking about my next visit

The vegetables are always fresh, the food is always piping hot and it's a friendly little place, too. I've tried several of the entrees by now and I've found them all satisfying. They do a lot of takeout business, and they have a lot of regulars. Makes sense to me; we'll be back a lot. In many ways it's standard fare, but it's well made and reliable. Very good place.

This is my go to Chinese delivery. I've been ordering from them for years. Everything on their menu is delicious! Some of my favorites are chicken lo mein, lemon chicken, panang curry and the egg rolls.

nice staff and delicious food. They have the BEST egg rolls around here and they are good sized too. Probably won’t be ordering dinner from them again. Prices are way too high at almost 20 dollars a plate for one meal.

Okay I was waiting for my nephew's cake to be picked up at Cake Occasion a few doors down and decided to stop here to get something to eat. I was nervous at first but the lady at the front was super nice and patient. Meanwhile once I got my food, I was shocked, the orange chicken was amazing and had actual orange slices in it (which I thought was delicious and aesthetically done well!). Also, the drinks were a really decent size for what you pay. I went here also a year ago and am still craving the orange chicken. I'll have to make the trip again! Great place.

I usually get delivery and they are always super quick. I vary meal-wise and have liked everything I've had, especially their egg drop soup and the little donuts they include.

I ordered out through UberEats for my boyfriend & I. We ordered General Tso’s Chicken and another order of Orange Chicken both with steamed rice. The portion sizes were huge. Food was absolutely delicious! One or if not the best Chinese I ever ate. Thanks to the chef and I highly recommend trying this place.

OMG! I SPENT $70 on dinner for my family....food was disgusting, I threw the seczhuan chicken completely out, I'm pretty sure the chicken was bad, it was rancid!!! The fried rice was sticky and blah,this will go to my doggies! The General Tsai chicken, gross,this to will go to the doggies, if they'll even eat it!!! The egg rolls were greasy...this meal was an EPIC FAIL! On the good side,the food got here fast and the delivery man was very nice!!<br/>My recomendation...get the fortune cookies ( they are prepackaged!) And go to Thai Basil!<br/><br/><br/>

I ordered delivery and it arrived in a timely manner, though I was starting to wonder since I placed my order early. I ordered the large teriyaki chicken which is just under $10. What this turned out to be was a grilled chicken breast cut with the grain with a few vegetables and the sauce cold on the side.The rangoons are small. I won't order from here again and wouldn't recommend them.

Great!. Amazing take-out or delivery. The delivery drivers are friendly and accommodate special requests (calling when they arrive). The Garlic Chicken is superb & the Steamed Chicken & Vegetables is wonderful. I will order again & again. Love it!!!
