Potstickers
Carly B.

The food comes in very large potions, with great flavors. They are available on DoorDash. The service is great. I got food to-go and it was delivered with care. The ambiance I would assume is very family oriented, as they have dine in available.

Stopped in last week for dinner. First let me say the dining area very dated and not very busy. However the volume of take out was incredible, It was person after person picking up food. The food was outstanding, and let me just tell you now the portions are huge. I ended up ordering two appetizers, which I didn't need with the portions you are served. The egg rolls and pot stickers were so good thou. The general Tso's was perfect, with just the right amount of sauce. the food took a minute to come out and it was really hot, you could tell it's made to order. If your looking for some great food this is a place to try.

First time ordering. Once was enough. Visually, everything looked stunning so I was looking forward to the meal. Ordered orange chicken with vegetable fried rice as the side (up charge), chicken egg roll, and crab rangoon. The orange chicken was hard to eat as it was super chewy. The orange sauce was delicious though. I was charged for vegetable fried rice but did not receive it. It was flavorless either way though.This is the first time I've come across crab rangoon I didn't like. Egg roll had a huge gristle inside midway. I honestly can't recommend this place.

Beef in L. Beef with Garlic Sauce Lunch Special

I think this is a really good neighborhood takeout spot. I didn't have the timing issues that others have written about. I called around noon and 20 minutes later my food was ready to pick up. I like that they do curbside so you don't even have to get out of your car. I ordered the Beef in garlic sauce and asked them to add broccoli. Sometimes when you ask for vegetables to be added people skimp on them, but Cafe China did not! I was very pleased and it was tasty plus the lunch portion came with soup. My dad got some type of meat and fried rice and he really liked his. Everything tasted fresh. Thumbs up from me.

General Tso's $9.95!

Glad to have a simple and straight forward Chinese place nearby! For lunch, I ordered the General Tso's with fried rice for $9.95. I was pleasantly surprised at how large the portion was! The chicken tasted fantastic, I would say better quality than the standard General Tso's at other Chinese restaurants. I also appreciate the time that went into their website! Majority of the entrees have pictures, and the non-obvious entrees even have descriptions! I'm not as intimidated to try different selections next time I stop by for lunch!

D. General Tso's Chicken Egg Roll

Average at best! But pricey as f$&k!!! This Chinese restaurant is not worth it and the value you get for your money is hard to find. The only thing this place has going for it is the location. Although I think that is precisely why they think they can get away with subpar food! I got General Tso's chicken, Crab Rangoon and 1 egg roll. The chicken itself wasn't bad but the sauce that it was drowned in was another story. It was sickeningly sweet with no hint of spice at all! Not heat, no pepper flakes, no real flavor of any kind...besides sugar. The quantity was ok but I would of much rather had less but better tasting. The Crab Rangoon was average at best and at over $8 for only six pieces was in no way worth it! It lacked any flavor of crab, onion or anything else besides tons of cream cheese. Imagine putting a full package of Philadelphia cream cheese in your mouth and then crunching on a chip... that was it! It was nice and crunchy without being so hard that would break your tooth. At least that is a plus! Lastly, was the most disappointing part of the whole meal. The egg roll which was so generic tasting that I probably could of gotten a better one at a gas station. It had no real discernible flavor. I couldn't taste any garlic or ginger or onion! At over $2 for a single egg roll, I was hoping for a kick in the face with flavor. Instead, I received a wet finger in my ear!!! There is not one thing that would bring me back to this restaurant. From the inflated price to the overcooked chicken...not one real thing I can say good about it. Do not waste your money and if you really do want to try it, just go to your local store and grab something from the freezer section. It'll probably taste better and cost a lot less.

Hot and spicy General Tsaos
Jennifer S.

I opted for Cafe China after almost every restaurant was closed for the 4th of July. I got the shrimp phad thai, my husband got the spicy General Tsaos, my 11 year old got the chicken lo mein, and we all shared the friend dumplings, hot and sour soup, and the crab Rangoon. I echo all the other reviews in saying that the portion size is fair for the price. Plenty of food left over for the next day! Food was piping Hot. Hot and sour soup and dumplings were standard recipes you get anywhere else....good. I do want to point.oit that the crab Rangoon was delicious and want to make a point that they stuff if with more filling than I have received elsewhere. Highly recommend! My husband loved the general Tsaos. He said the heat was a dry heat and tasted better than other restaurants. My 11 year old said the lo mein was ok. Tons of chicken and the lo mein was even better leftover. I was disappointed in my phad thai. They do not use phad thai noodles. There is no phad thai sauce. They use whole peanuts instead of crushed peanuts. On the good side, I felt like I got a fair amount of shrimp. If you're looking for phad thai, look at the pictures first. I would not call this phad thai. This place was ok. I feel like it's better than standard shines fast food.

The food is great, service is fast. We've dined inside and it's quiet but mostly takeout. 3 words: Christmas dinner tradition.

I arrived at noon and the parking lot was already pretty full for this very unassuming Chinese…read morerestaurant from the outside. There is plenty of free parking which is nice. When I walked in the atmosphere was great, I could smell good food and heard conversations. There's a large area with large round tables to right and to the left are booths and almost all of them were full. The menu was a mix of Americanized Chinese, traditional Chinese and included Dim Sum as well. There were a number of dishes we didn't know much about and there were dishes being enjoyed by other customers that looked delicious. The wait staff was more than happy to explain the dishes and/or show us on the menu what someone was eating. They took very good care of us and shared the tasks of bringing our food, filling water, and just checking in. Now the food. The food came out very quickly! We all received a well filled bowl of rice. First out was the string beans, perfectly cooked, not droopy, and the flavors of garlic and hot peppers. Even though the peppers were there the heat was not overpowering at all. Next was the shredded pork with garlic sauce. The textures of the pork and bamboo shoots were a nice contrast and the sauce was perfectly balanced and craveable. The special grilled lamb, I was told, was some of the best in the city. It was tender and well spiced. Even when he said he was full he just couldn't stop eating it. For the dim sum order we got the shrimp dumplings, soup dumplings, scallion pancake, and sesame balls and they brought a soy sauce and a chili oil with them. The shrimp dumplings were tender but the dough was pretty sticky. I think this is normal and they were tasty with some of the oil on them. The scallion pancakes were very thin and gummy, this is the only thing we ordered that I would not get again. The soup dumplings were very small but packed a lot of flavor. The dough did stick together a bit so unfortunately some of the soup did leak out. The sesame balls were the hit and we're just the right amount of sweetness that we considered them desert. They were large, at least 2" in size, with a wonderful sesame seed covered exterior and a soft, sweet center. Chuan Jiang Hao Zi is a wonderful somewhat hidden gem. If you want traditional Chinese cuisine including all the different offal they have it and I would totally try it here over anyone else if I was brave enough. Portions were a good size for the price. I highly recommend checking them out!

Spicy Dumplings w/ chili oil - Excellent Crab Rangoons -…read moreAbove Average+ My family ordered Mongolian Beef, Kung Pao Chicken & Hunan Chicken. I had the Kung Pao Chicken & it was by far the best I'd ever eaten. So many layers of flavor & heat. (a bit spicy for me, but I struggled through & loved every bite) Will definitely be back to explore some of the more "exotic" dishes on the menu. (Wasn't feeling to adventurous this trip) The restaurant was well decorated & the staff took great care of us. (saw a large selection of dumplings at this place too.....definitely be back to try those)
