Crystal Island Chinese Restaurant

The food!!! So good!! Very friendly staff, clean place! We ordered the Sesame Chicken with fried rice, general Tso's chicken with steamed rice, vegetable lo mein, and egg rolls. everything was great. Also, they gave us some doughnuts for free-how awesome!

Holy crap. Definitely NOT just another hole in the wall Chinese restaurant, they're a small family business that's cozy and personal. It may have the exact same menu and style as most small Chinese restaurants but WOWThe food is absolutely phenomenal. Emily (the lady who helped us) was so fun sweet funny and informative over the menu, gave us some free Chinese donuts that were so fluffy and yummy, and the price vs the portion? Get outta town. They do not sacrifice quality for quantity. Everything we got was absolutely delicious, crispy, flavorful, not too goopy or too sweet. It may be in a small shopping center and it may not be much to look at but damn, we just found our new regular Chinese takeout spot.

Their lunch special is a really good deal. The tofu is my fave!!! The service is always quick and friendly. I would recommend to anyone!

I've been ordering for years now. The salt n pepper shrimp, EGG DROP soup, and dumplings are my absolute go-to items. Fantastic, every time.

This is the best Chinese in Thornton! Quick delivery, friendly people! I've never felt sick after eating here.Here's us what we have had and a review of each;1. Chicken Chow Mein: amazing! Fresh ingredients and amazing flavor! Crispy noodles were not at all stale. This is my favorite Chinese dish so I am very critical. This is the best I've had!2. Sesame Chicken: Great flavor, always fresh!3. Wontons: Cooked all the way through, you can tell they use fresh oil4 Hot and Sour Soup: Great flavor5. Sweet and Sour Chicken: again, the ingredients were fresh and you can tell the oil is newOverall, the new owners have done great things with this restaurant!Bravo

Great food and arrived burning hot! We have been disappointed with the local options but we have found our spot!

Greeted immediately and seated by who I assume is the owner. Very friendly. She said they had just made a fresh batch of egg drop soup and wanted to know if we would like to try it. It was incredible! The color alone was much more bright and enticing than any other egg drop soup I've seen. You could even tell the quality was good by the texture. It was not watered down. It was thick and rich.We ordered the sesame, shrimp and chicken. By far, better than we've had anywhere else. There was more meat than breading and the breading wasn't bumpy... It was very smooth. The sauce was rich and thick... And it wasn't sickeningly sweet. Both the shrimp and the chicken were very tender. Everywhere else we go, it's chewy. Not here! It was extremely good. So glad we tried this place... And I know we are going back. I think this is our new go to Chinese restaurant.

I thoroughly enjoy this restaurant, The owners are always. Generously friendly to me. The female owner always seems extremely surpised that I love my Egg Rolls with chili sauce and hot mustard and are always accommodating. the service is great and the food is always delicious.Thank you for the great service.

I got my order delivered. It came super fast, super hot and incredibly tasty! My house hasn't been able to find a decent Chinese place that delivers (for many years) and it turns out they were this close all along! I highly recommend and will be spreading the word.

I'm very disappointed in both dishes that I got (chicken lo Maine and sesame chicken) the sesame chicken is very dry, it's not like chicken at all. Every piece is stuck together. The lo Maine is super over cooked, soggy and greasy. I also got wantons and those are super good. But unfortunately the main courses are no good :(
