Oriental House

It's been a bit since I last visited, and in that time, Oriental House has gone through a big renovation. When I picked up my to-go order tonight, it was great to see its new space, with a large, bright bar in the front and lots of seating. The restaurant was packed!And the food is as good as always. I tried the Happy Family, with beef, jump shrimp, chicken and veggies in a brown sauce. It was super filling, and the meat looked to be good cuts. I will likely go with something else on a return visit, but it was still delightful.We also got sesame balls, which were a highlight for me. And I started with wonton soup. This soup came with three large wontons in it -- such a great treat on a cool night. My husband got the Szechuan Pork and said it was the best Chinese dish he's had in awhile. I was able to easily put my order in online, and it was ready within 20 minutes. The prices are fair too. Don't overlook Oriental House -- it's a Louisville staple for a reason.

I really enjoyed our visit here! We were promptly seated and server was right on it. Needed a high chair boom had it.We're served water and drinks quickly. Orders were taken; appetizers were quick and hot. Entrees followed quickly thereafter, but we had time to finish appetizers.Chuyie ( ? Spelling ) was a great server; very pleased with her.The dining area is large and comfortable decor making a warm setting but not over elaborate. Food was all very tasty.

The best Chinese in the area. A Louisville classic! It was packed last night, but it didn't take them long to make the food. There was also consistently about 15 bags of carry out at the counter waiting to get picked up.I miss the old chairs they used to have. I hadn't been here since the remodel. Other than the chairs it's very nice!

This place was crowded on a Friday night, but we were seated right away. Our waitress was quick with drinks and appetizers. She let us know the entrees would take a little longer because of how busy they were, but between the egg drop soup and crab rangoon, which were great, it didn't seem to take that long. The General Tso's chicken, shrimp fried rice, and Hunan chicken were delicious. The portion sizes are generous, and we definitely could have shared. Instead, we took home leftovers.I definitely see why this is a St. Mathews local staple.

The food was good as usual and the service was great. I have never gotten a bad meal here yet.

This restaurant food was fire. Our extra spiced generals chicken flavors exceeded expectations. Not overwhelming but very tasty and will be my go to.Came at opening time on Saturday morning. Service fast and smooth. The place was spotless.

Most authentic Chinese in Louisville area! Finally had a chance to enjoy this place and it did not disappoint! All the traditional dishes that you would find at your local Chinese buffet or carry out locations but here they're made so much better. I'm planning a return trip soon because the menu had so many items I wanted but portion sizes are HUGE so you can make two meals unless you can really throw it down. Very casual atmosphere boasting excellent service earns Oriental House a solid 5 stars!

There is sadly no Dim Sum in Lexington. Since we were heading to Louisville for the races, we decided to check out Oriental House, recommended by some local foodies. While they don't have traditional rolling carts, the Dim Sum did the trick. How I love it! Very good and friendly service.46

We were nearby and couldn't resist coming again for lunch. We both tried something different this time. I got the Hunan chicken. It's got just a touch of spice. I did get the San Shen Soup again and it was outstanding. My wife got the Moo Goo Guy Pan. The service was again excellent and the food beyond expectations.

The happy family entree is so good, really good portion sizes and reasonably priced. I wish the side of fried rice had veggies in it but still really good.
