" Alton Chinese Restaurant offers familiar comfort food that takes me back to my childhood! Their traditional dim sum and egg tarts are delightful, especially when enjoyed with a cup of HK milk tea. I love that they have a loyalty program too. However, some days service can be a bit slower than usual, and one can feel the pressure when it’s really busy. Despite that, the food quality makes up for it. I will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Alton Chinese Restaurant has intricate flavors that capture the essence of traditional Cantonese cooking! I devoured their sweet and sour chicken which is a must if you enjoy tangy dishes. The milk tea is equally impressive and pairs well with any meal! Word of caution - be prepared for a rush during peak hours; the crowds can make the atmosphere feel a little hectic at times. But don’t let that deter you; the food is well worth the visit here. Overall, I rate it a solid 4 out of 5! " (*Curated Review*)

" Alton Chinese Restaurant is, without a doubt, a local favorite. Their commitment to using fresh ingredients and staying true to traditional recipes stands out. I tried the lemon chicken, and it was a failure, but the sweet and sour shrimp was incredible! The restaurant was full, yet the service was acceptable. They could use some more help during busy periods, though. Otherwise, I praise this restaurant for their dedication to quality food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m always on the lookout for authentic and affordable Chinese food, and Alton did not disappoint! The portions are generous, and we left feeling satisfied. I loved their combination plates, which came with rice, soup, and a side of dessert. The only downside was the cash-only policy, which caught me off guard, but for the price, I can forgive that. If you appreciate flavor and authenticity, check this place out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me tell you, if you appreciate traditional Hong Kong cuisine, Alton delivers! Despite being somewhat crowded during my visit, the service kept up well and things managed to flow smoothly. The beef brisket noodle soup was a standout dish – rich, flavorful, and truly satisfying. The prices are fair, the portions large – it's hard to walk away feeling unsatisfied. I can’t emphasize enough; check this place out if you haven’t already! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Alton last weekend and experienced something that felt both nostalgic and comforting. The restaurant offers a wide array of traditional dishes that are reasonably priced. I ordered the fried rice and some crispy spring rolls, and they were delicious! However, the service was a bit slow, and I had to wait longer than I expected for my food to arrive. Despite that, I would recommend this spot for anyone else craving authentic Chinese food at an affordable price. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Alton! The food is so authentic – it transported me back to my travels in Hong Kong. I had the wonton noodle soup and it was flavorful and hearty. The portions were generous, which made it great value for the money. However, the service could be a bit better. Our server was absent for long stretches, and we eventually had to flag someone down to get our check. I would overlook that because of the quality of the food. I’ll definitely be returning.
