Huge, comfortable dining room with plenty of seating options in a very busy town. Take out is also available. The food was tasty and the service was great.

My family and I came here to try something new while we were in town . Let me tell you, we were blown away. The GM, Kenny, was fantastic! We had a large sized party and East was very accommodating! The food was terrific. My Chinese wife said it was very authentic and tasted phenomenal! I thought so as well. With a variety choice of food choices , Chinese, Japanese and Thai, there is literally something for everyone. The portion sizes are terrific as well. Overall, East is definitely going to be a routine night out when we are in Wells and I’d recommend this restaurant to anyone in town. You’ll thank me later for sure 👍

The food has been consistently great the last eight times we’ve dined in over a two year period. Between the scorpion bowl, and a C211 with extra crispy spare ribs you can’t ask for better Chinese food.

We had a pleasant experience at the East. Our waiter was top notch and attentive. The Hostess was warm and welcoming. The meal was excellent and fulfilling. The final cost was in budget.

I got take out so i can't really say much about the staff, the people i dealt with were really nice but the food was very good. I've been looking for a solid replacement since we lost the original green tea and this is it. The food was great and i love the variety of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. The masuman was fantastic. We will be stopping in again

Was in town for the weekend for the marathon. Loved the mix of different Asian cuisines. Ordered a combo of Japanese and Thai food. Was not disappointed. Waiter patiently answered all my questions and was prompt with service. Food portions were decent and prices were reasonable. Spent under $40 for 2 and food left for later & the next day. Decor is beautiful inside and out. Would go there again if I get the chance.

Had a comprehensive electrical assessment done on a property that had seen a lot of DIY work over the years. The tech documented everything systematically, separated what was safe from what wasn't, and gave us a prioritized list. Exactly what you need to get a clear picture of where things actually stand.

Ordered take out. Overall good. Some of the beef and pork was a bit chewy. Honestly better as leftovers! Was ready quickly.

Beautiful restaurant. We've been coming for probably two decades with family now. The service is always perfect and the options are endless. Easily the best quality Chinese food I've ever had in the entire northeast, look forward to it every time I come to Maine. They even had gluten free options that involved fried food! Very empty when we went(Saturday lunch at noon in January) but we've never had any issues with quality even when busy.

Very nice restaurant, food is good to very good. Sometimes I feel the food could be served at a higher temperature, and occasionally the noodles are on the dry side and spring rolls can be dry sometimes too. Overall a nice experience and I visit every few months.

Had the Sunday buffet and for someone who isn't a big fan of oriental food, this was very good. The chicken drop soup was delicious.
