Red Chili Restaurant (Binghamton), Vestal NY

I honestly don't understand why, with all these great reviews, our meal was so tasteless. Shrimp with Broccoli, dry fried string beans, nothing difficult. We threw away the leftovers.

Crab wontons are out of this world delicious. You have to try them. Dumplings are also amazing.

The atmosphere inside is serene, tranquil, and very clean.

Good service.

This place is a must try.

Extremely flavorful, very nicely decorated Chinese restaurant with a large menu. They have a hotpot option as well. Great for date night. We had the General Tsou chicken and chicken with cashews both highly recommended.

The food was very good, great service, and a very good selection not just your typical dishes. Would recommend it to anyone in the area.

The food here is tasty! (Not the place to be if you’re looking for something inexpensive though) I find it to be a littleeee more expensive than it’s worth, but I’ve never been disappointed with a dish. Although, in the pic below) I paid extra for more vegetables and there weren’t very many: (
Nice atmosphere and kind staff!

Excellent authentic food. Attentive staff. I looked around and if I didn't look outside I could believe I was back in modern China. The place had a very Shanghai/Ningbo feel.

Absolutely outstanding. We got delivery and everything was amazing, we'll be looking forward to visiting the restaurant in person as it looks beautiful. Food quality is superb and quantity is generous. The real hook is that they offer many authentic Chinese dishes that you won't find at Americanized restaurants. If you're adventurous, you'll find duck tongues, blood soup, pigs feet and much more.

Update. We dined in and it was a great experience. If anything, go to see a robot deliver your food to the table!

Foods amazing it's so good I literally almost busted my balls just eating it for the first time.

Overall great experience, food was delicious, service was good although I didn't like that they complained that I wanted more gravy after I ordered.since this was my first time here, how was I supposed to know how much gravy was going to be served? But apparently I was expected to know that.nice atmosphere, they have a really cool robot that they use to bring food back and forth for when people order take out

Very delicious, nice service, all the dishes are served quickly, and very good environment. You can pick what level of spice you want. Easy to find. A definite must-try.

Used to be one of my favorites but is still good for the occasional outing. Prices are high and sometimes my stomach hurts after eating

Every single food item was delicious. I feel a need to emphasize that this is the best Chinese food I've had in a decade of living in upstate NY, and I might have easily walked past it outside thinking "this is probably fine. " Nope-worth traveling for. It's also super cute inside, from the decor to the booths and the art/decor on the walls. Good atmosphere, delicious food, highly recommend!

Authentic food with a great atmosphere. The service was a little slower when we were there, but the food was great and the portions were also big.

A nice chinese spot in the area!

Ordered the XLB, fried rice, and stir fried pea sprout with garlic. The portions are really good here, but on the pricier end.

Staff is friendly. I only ever did takeout, but their space to dine-in is also pretty big, so a good place to host a large group.

Call ahead if you plan to do takeout to skip the wait!

This is the only Asian restaurant I've been to that charges for chili oil. They forgot to give me the white rice for my takeout order. Food was very bland. The dim sum is extremely overpriced. Staff also had a rude attitude.

After having dinner at this place, I got stomach virus at 1am and vomited everything I ate until 5 am the next day. This is my first time getting sick in US in the past four years (I didn’t get covid here lol). The dinner was the only meal that would cause it (I skipped lunch). It was also noticeable that the dishes were not fresh, especially the Tofu. Luckily, my other friends are doing ok.

Avoid it at all cost.

Love it here. My niece and I stop in every now and then for orange chicken and different dim sum.

Best Chinese food I’ve had in Upstate NY. Will drive to Binghamton just for this restaurant in the future. Blows my local options out of the water.

I ordered to go. The ambiance was awesome and I was greeted right upon arrival inside. I'm new to the area so ordered a few things to try. Shrimp Mei fun, crab wontons and soup dumplings. All good sized portions. The Mei fun had very small shrimp but plenty in the serving. There was also chicken, which I didn't order. The noodles and ingredients were heavily dosed in sauce so it had a soupy consistency. The Soup dumpings however, had very little liquid inside. They were more like a meatball wrapped dumpling. The Crab wontons were crispy and the filling was a smooth texture just like crab wontons are supposed to be. The sauce that came with them was not sweet at all, it looked like duck sauce but was a little salty.

It ‘twas the winter of 2022, my wife ordered pepper corn chicken (it was numbing and spicy which for my wife and myself great), fish soupy style (really soft and creamy fish was spicy), green beans (still crispy and Taste fresh) and beef tripe (it was sliced really thin which it makes it really good making for good texture) The food was delivered through DoorDash still hot and was excellent and authentic. Food can be made more or less spicy. Definitely want to sit in sometime!
