Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Food menu prices up about 25% since Trump COVID close and Biden inflation? Portions cut back, too (Fried Calamari appetizer). Food not bad, rice just average. Parking horrible unless you pay in garage and walk 4 blocks. Dine-in still has not reopened (July 2022). They...are putting a $3 off orders over $15.00 minimum coupon in Val pak mailer. They do offer duck & lamb selections, which is unusual for carryout chinese in area.More

Visited on October 10, 2021. No dine-in options, only take out. Ordered vegetable Lo Mein and Kung Pao Tofu from the main menu, and Shredded Beef and Bao Shang Ding from the Chef's Specialty Menu. Large portions and the food was hot, and excellent. Very...polite staff, well organized take out procedures. The only obstacle is parking, especially in Towson on a Saturday evening. Otherwise, this was an excellent dining experience.More

This restaurant has good American Asian food. I had the eel don bowl and my husband has the Mongolian beef. I also appreciate asian restaurants that give you crunchy crackers and duck sauce prior to your meal. My meal (eel don) was very good. My...husbands meal tasted as if the rice was pre cooked and reheated. The spring rolls were also lacking flavor. My recommendation would be to come here to order items from the sushi bar.More

My family and I went to The Orient when it just opened, nearly 18 months ago and loved it. We’ve been back frequently (approx once every two months) since and have loved it every time. We haven’t tried their sushi but have tried a host...of their Chinese dishes and loved everyone. I would rate this restaurant for anyone looking for great tasting Chinese food. We have also had takeaway meals (delivered) from The Orient too. Though delicious, they’re not a patch on the standard they achieve when serving food fresh in the restaurant.More

My daughter just moved to Towson and we were looking for a great sit down chinese restaurant and we found it here. Food was great. Service was fast and attentive and decor is new and very nice. Please note that TripAdvisor has the address wrong....They are at 416 York St. The phone number is correct which is how I got the right address.More

Had Cashew Chicken and sushi. Philly and Tuna Roll. Food was very good. The place was nice and clean. The service was very robotic yet efficient. I would go back for the food. Sushi was done well.

I went in yesterday and ordered some salmon tempura sushi roll, crabmeat rangoon and a few more. I have had sushi better even at a grocery store and the crabmeat rangoon crust was too thick to even bite and chewy. The food was just awful...and i walked in after looking up the reviews online, it was my worst Chinese food ever. I should have rather got me a burger than eating this cheap and bad quality food. I would never go back there ever again.More

My family and I often visit or order delivery from the Orient restaurant. There are a lot of outstanding Asian restaurants in Towson, but the Orient is probably our favorite. We order a lot of vegetarian dishes and it's always hard to decide what to...get because it's all very good.More

We moved to Towson about a year ago from Bel Air and have been unable to find decent Chinese carry out. All have been VERY disappointing. But the Orient, after its reopening, is just wonderful! The restaurant is clean and well appointed inside, the people...are very friendly but the food is outstanding. Beef lo mein, beef with broccoli, General tsao chicken and egg rolls are all the best in the area. We’re so glad to have great Chinese again! Thank you for bringing us such good food!More
