Wonderful couple making your order fresh and delicious! She always remembers my order when I call. This place is extremely popular but small. It is takeout only. Avoid long waits by ordering ahead and running errands first!

South Sea Chinese is hands down the best Chinese I have ever gotten!! Everything is always fresh!! For a husband and wife team only they rock that little place!! They are very polite and courteous..You can see the husband in the kitchen cooking your food and the wife makes sure you get everything you ordered with the condiments!! Great place to eat!! (no deliveries) food is still delicious!!

Husband and I order here frequently! Usually a long wait for the order, but food is always fresh, hot, and delicious. The only Chinese restaurant we will order from for the past couple years! A husband and wife team who rocks this little joint!!!

We have been eating here since 2013 and not once have we been disappointed. Always made to order. Fresh vegetables and chicken too. I found out that they make their own duck sauce fresh too! Very clean establishment. Never have gotten sick eating at South Sea. The owners, husband and wife, are very sweet and courteous. Happy that they are Lewiston!
