called in for a to-go order with my sister and Olivia had answered to take my order, she was so sweet and kind. 10/10 customer service ^_^

Amazing food. Unlike a lot of standard Chinese restaurants, the food here isn't overly greasy. I've eaten here more than 50 times and have consistently enjoyed the quality and flavor. My only complaint is their takeout and delivery timing. They seem to automatically quote a 45+ minute wait time for every order, even during non-peak hours on weekdays. I've actually tested this myself: I placed a takeout order and drove to the restaurant immediately, arriving within about five minutes. My food was ready roughly 15 minutes after ordering. If I had chosen delivery instead, the food likely would have sat there for around 30 minutes before being picked up and delivered. With today's technology and the ability to provide more accurate wait-time estimates based on current demand, there's no reason every order should default to a 45+ minute estimate. It's frustrating and feels unnecessary. This is the sole reason I don't order their sushi to-go. I eat sushi alot, and they lose alot of business due to this easily correctable mistake. The food is excellent, but the ordering system could use some improvement. read more

Food is between ok and good. Not the best Chinese or Japanese in Chula Vista but I do like we have can either or both at the same restaurant. We mostly come because the kids love the plain chow mein and you know kids and veggies. read more

The reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because of how DOORDASH handled the ordering process. Regardless, today Richard was able to make things right and we really appreciated his thoughtfulness. When we're craving something quick to bring home we usually order from here and the food is always good! We recommend the Dragon wings + chicken fried rice. read more

Can only speak on a recent sushi order. Sadly disappointed. Ordered four sushi rolls (crunchy shrimp roll, lemon cilantro roll, hiramasa, and a tiger roll) and all missed the mark. Flavors just weren't there--bland and uninspiring combinations. I've had similar rolls at other establishments and they have been delicious--not sure what happened here. Would not recommend ordering sushi from here. I'm giving this place two stars--one for ease of placing a phone order and it being ready on time, and one star for ample parking. Service was average. read more

We decided to give this place a try despite the poor reviews. Ordered the seared salmon roll, salt and pepper wings, teriyaki chicken bento, and chicken katsu bento. The salt and pepper wings were disappointing and tasted like poor quality meat. The salmon roll started out fine, but on the third piece my wife noticed something shiny before taking a bite -- it turned out to be a piece of broken glass inside the rice. At that point, we immediately stopped eating out of fear there might be more glass in the food. We called the restaurant right away, but the manager was never available and we were told to "call back in 30 minutes." This happened multiple times. When the manager finally called us back the next day, he offered to remake the entire order but refused a refund. We declined because after finding glass in our food, we no longer trusted eating there. He stated he "doesn't do business like that" and didn't seem concerned about the seriousness of the situation. Glass in food is a huge safety issue that could cause real harm, and the lack of accountability made it even worse. Sadly, we won't be returning and cannot recommend this place. read more

China Bento - The piece of glass - Chinese Near Me - Chula Vista, California

Had a great time with a group of friends. Our server was fantastic!! This group came in at scattered times. There was also another large group. Our server kept all of our orders straight, amazing. Everyone ordered off different menus and food came out perfectly. I had the lunch sashimi and a salmon skin hand roll which was excellent. It was a lot of food. Would definitely recommend for either Chinese or Japanese. read more

The staff is always friendly; I've never had to wait long to get seated or for our meal to be served. The Chinese dishes are great without being too salty and not greasy at all. The Japanese dishes are also very good! I wish they'd add more variety to the "Family Dinner" like maybe the top 10 ordered dishes and we get to pick 4 of those instead of always Mongolian Beef and Orange Chicken. But otherwise, solid place, consistent and reliable. read more

We had such a great experience at China Bento! The honey walnut shrimp was so good, and we also loved the salt and pepper wings and house noodles. Definitely recommend the family meal deal if you're ordering for a group. We'll be back! read more

We had the salt and pepper chicken wing appetizer and the egg foo young. The chicken was plump, juicy on inside and crispy crunchy on outside. Nice tasting but not spicy hot. The egg foo young was the biggest we ever saw! It was two stacked pancakes both the size of the plate. They were good and the sauce that went with it was very yummy. Great service. Roomy ambiance. read more

Don't know about other people, but I love this place! This is where I take my mom for lunch sometimes, because it's close to home, there is a lot to choose from the menu and food is tasty. The weekday lunch menu used to be such a great deal, and so many combinations to choose from Sometimes you feel like Chinese food, sometimes Japanese, sometimes both! Unfortunately, the prices have gone up, as with all costs lately. But the food always comes out super hot and tasty. Fortunately, we have never had a problem with our food being cold or stale. Also, the portion sizes are pretty big that we always have food left over to take home. I love their Kung pao chicken and egg drop soup with crispy wontons and sweet and sour sauce. It is my go-to! The service here is always excellent. Never had a rude, pushy, or neglectful server. We've been coming here for years, and we will continue to do so! read more

I used to come here over 10+ years ago with my family. There was this salt n pepper chicken that I used to get that they no longer do which makes me sad, however their new menu is still very good. I love the build-your-own lunch special. Their portions are HUGE. The lunch special used to come with an egg roll, soup, and salad. Not it's soup OR salad. My boyf got soup and I got the salad so we could try both and they are both 10/10. The best egg drop soup I've had in a while. The salad dressing is the same as it was years ago -- just as amazing. It was pretty empty that day and we had to wait a little towards the end for someone to help us. read more

I come here once a month at least. I walk in, and they know me and my order. Salt & Pepper Chicken. Every time. I feel right at home. Always good, with great service. Definitely worth the price. Plenty to choose from their menu. I look forward to going each and every time. Never disappointed. read more

This is always a go to spot for me. I come here at least twice a month. The egg fried rice is only 8 dollars AND THE PORTION IS HUGE. It will for sure feed at least 4 people. It's also super good and well made! The Las Vegas roll is a fried roll and i personally like it, it just has salmon so if you don't like fish don't get that. If you like spicy sushi, I like the jalapeño roll, it's also a fried roll. The salt and pepper chicken wings are TO DIE FOR! The service is always super friendly and is quick with everything they do! The ambience is also great. Good vibes! The tables are a bit close so sometimes you'll over hear other people's conversations. But it's the best spot in Chula Vista. I've been to a few other spots... But everytime I compare it to China China + Bento and Noodles. Not many places come close to this place! read more

China Bento - A funny fortune I got. I wonder if it's bad luck... _ - Chinese Near Me - Chula Vista, California

The prices sure went up here at China China, and Bento & Noodles. Below, I ordered Beef Chow FUN Noodles. It feels you up fast. I like how they LOWERED the price of the Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings, but it's SAD to know that they raised the price of their Honey Walnut Shrimp; which is currently over $22. Other than that, they have good customer service - but improvements can be made w/small details such as including fortune cookies w/our order. read more

This is a staple place for us in Chula Vista. It's great to have some options for families, since you can choose between Chinese and Japanese foods. The food is fairly priced and delicious. We typically order salt and pepper chicken wings, noodles, or fried rice and have tried some of their rolls as well. Everything we have had has been a hit. They have a great lunch special as well read more

China Bento has great food! The portions are huge, and everything tastes really good -- definitely worth the price. The only downside is the service; it could use some improvement. If they work on that, this place would be perfect! read more

My family and I waited one hour for an unsatisfying meal. The house fried rice was bland, it tasted like plain steamed rice with peas. Everything we ordered had the quality of fast food that's been served as dine-in. The Mongolian beef was only about a quarter meat, the rest being onion, stir fried in copious amounts of oil. The chicken wings were tolerable, but super dry and over all nothing special. The orange chicken on the other hand was pretty much just breading. I've been to many Chinese restaurants and by far, this place was one of the worst. It's frustrating that I paid nearly $100 for a meal that was this bad. This restaurant brings shame to Chinese cuisine. read more

This once-lovely spot has taken a steep dive in recent years. After a moderately disappointing experience several months ago, we were in the neighborhood and decided to give it another go. It was awful. Our hot & sour soup had the texture of jello. Like ACTUAL jello, but hot! I kid you not. Our stir fry dish was absolutely loaded with oil and yet strangely flavorless. The fried rice suffered from similar issues. When we went to the register to pay after our meal, the hostess couldn't help us until she finished a gossipy conversation with her coworker about their mutual friend. Neither of them even acknowledged us standing RIGHT THERE for a couple of minutes. Super weird. read more

Came here on a Sunday evening with some family for some good Chinese food. We ordered 3 entrees and one side dish and definitely ended up with leftovers for our party of three. The Mongolian Beef, Salt and Pepper Wings, Honey Walnut Shrimp were super yummy!! The portions are pretty big so I would recommend sharing vs ordering 1 entree per each person. I wouldn't order the Chicken with Vegetables again though, the vegetable to chicken ratio was very off with it having too many vegetables. We arrived at around 5pm and only waited less than 10 mins to be seated. We got our food pretty quickly after ordering as well. The restaurant does get pretty loud since it's one whole big room vs having walls/dividers. Parking is super easy since it's located with other stores surrounding a huge parking lot, and right off the freeway too! It's a combined Chinese + Japanese restaurant, so I could see this place being the perfect answer for indecisive eaters! Makes it unique and would be a reason why I come back! read more

Food was good, BUT, they wouldn't sell me a side order of fried rice with my meal. if I want fried rice, I had to get the full order which was a bagel platter. What Chinese restaurant doesn't sell aside order of fried rice?!Probably will not go back ... read more

The Bento box lunch special is a DEAL!!! The platter actually gives enough to fulfill your stomach, so don't let your eyes fool you! The service was very welcoming and friendly and the environment of the place was a bit busy, but overall really clean! The food came out faster than I expected and it was FRESH!!! The sauce on their meats could be a little less, but that's my personal preference, so if you do enjoy more sauce on meats then this place would be enjoyable for you!!! I would totally come back here and the lunch special was a deal to not miss!!! :D read more

China Bento - Bento Box with Sweet & Sour Chicken, fried fish, 2 California Rolls, rice and salad. It also comes with a small Miso Soup :) - Chinese Near Me - Chula Vista, California

This has been a long time family favorite. Never disappointed! The food was fresh, hot and good. The service was definitely good.

They don't give you super salad if you don't dine in, even though you have to pay the same exact price for the lunch meal then they only give fortune cookies to people that dine in when asked about a couple items. The employees didn't seem very knowledgeable about the things they were serving. The food wasn't bad but I would never return again. I'm highly dissatisfied and I'll only give them one star because it's making me get that. read more

I really can't say enough good things about this place. I've been eating food from here for a good 5+ years and they consistently deliver great food at a good price. I always do take-out, just because I like to eat in the comfort of my own home. Food has always been ready in 15-30 minutes after doing an online or in restaurant order. The portions are big. Is it cheap? No. But it is less than their competitors and tastes better. I'm super picky about my Chinese food and this is currently the only place in the South Bay I'm willing to eat from. The staff is always polite and prompt. We typically get shrimp fried rice, sweet and sour chicken and beef chow mein. Lately, we also add salt and pepper chicken as well. Simply delicious. read more

It's not often you find a restaurant that can serve up Chinese and Japanese cuisine. This restaurant did just that and DID NOT disappoint. Food taste delicious and you can tell they care about the food. Service and staff were amazing. Welcomed immediately by a polite waitress. Was very patient while I looked over the menu. From the time I order to when I received my food, it took no longer than 10 minutes. Waitress kept ensuring I was taken care of until the end of the meal without feeling pushy. Ambiance was calm. Plenty of seatings and is not over congested. Highly recommend!! read more

Excellent Wor wonton soup... incredible portion and super fresh ingredients. I've been to both China China and Bento. Since the remodel and blend of both restaurants the quality of the food and the ambiance is incredible! This will be my go to. read more

The Mongolian beef and salt and pepper chicken wings are always a good choice. I recommend asking for the bento rice (from the Japanese side of the restaurant) because the standard rice served with the Chinese entrees is dry and the fried rice is bland and at times, too greasy. The staff is friendly and efficient. read more

This establishment has been in this location forever! Like how they evolve with the times--started out as a traditional sit-down Chinese restaurant (China China), and in the last several years merged with the Japanese restaurant so there is a lot of delicious food choices to order from. Super glad they are still in business and we're able to survive the pandemic. read more

This place is not good at all.. no flavor in the house noodles. The house rice looks like they just put in cut up lunch meat. Salt & pepper chicken dry. And mongolian beef was tuff. Will never go to this place again. read more

They gave me projectile food poisoning. I blame sit on the seafood to be nice lol but I haven't been back since then which was was 9yrs ago

I like to take my mom to this place because it isn't overcrowded and the food is pretty good. I also order extra items to bring home for later. Below are what I typically order: hot and sour soup egg drop soup honey walnut shrimp crispy beef Yakisoba with beef Yakisoba with chicken Orange chicken California roll On occasions that I need to bring potluck, I order a large tray of the California rolls. The family loves it! read more

I've only came here once before but somehow started craving their cheese wontons. They always served good portions for the price and the wontons is filled with the cheese instead of the fried part. Crunchy California roll was delicious, came with 8 rolls and their size is pretty good too. The Mongolian beef and chicken house special already came with steamed rice when ordered (definitely enough for 2 people to go share!). The chicken chow mein was so flavorful, kind of can't explain the flavor but it's sooo good. The highlight of our order was definitely the House Special chicken! My boyfriend wanted to try a different take on chicken and orders this. It came out and we're surprised how much was on the plate. We both tried it and omg the flavor is so good, we tasted a hint of sweet and sour but there's more into it! There's chili sauce maybe and a taste of pineapple somewhere! Please try it out when you can! Our server also was so kind, I didn't get her name but she checked up on us multiple times and noticed right away we needed take out boxes. She also reassured us when ordering that portions are enough for us. Lastly, when you come in if there are no waiting line you'll be seated right away, but if it's busy they do have the waitlist system on the iPad in front. Just fill it up and you'll get a message, the front desk/seater will help you. read more

I can't speak for other people but I thought this place was amazing! Went there for the first time with my niece and her boyfriend. I ordered the build your own lunch platter with the orange chicken. It was the best orange chicken I've ever had it was so flavorful (you could actually taste the orange) and cooked perfectly. They weren't skimpy either it was a full plate of food. My niece ordered a plate of chicken wings which I tasted and I will definitely go back for those because they were the most seasoned chicken wings I've ever had in my life. As far as the food goes this place is top-notch in my opinion. The service leaves something to be desired. The waitress poured water into my starry drink lol and never came around to ask us how our meal was but that's okay the food was excellent. read more

For and foremost Happy Father's Day to all the father's and those mothers that are pulling double duty! I'm a father and a grandfather. I was a single dad for years raising two small children, a daughter and a son. Whom are both grown now and my daughter has three of her own and has an awesome loving husband. My son just turned 30 so he decided to hang out with his friends. Which is cool I see my family often so I don't trip if I don't see them on days like today. I know they love me and I love them. So today wifey has been craving Chinese food it's my day and she has the cravings . We went to one on my spots in San Diego that has the best chicken wings I believe in San Diego. But they were not open to dining just pickup. That was disappointing. Then I thought I'd my sound spot. China China, to see if they were open for indoor dining so I drove by and sure enough they were open for indoor dining! Winner winner chicken dinner! Wifey ordered the family special which came with house fried rice, orange chicken, Mongolian beef, and yes you guessed it, salt n pepper wings. Wifey's mom wanted to go with us to church so it was a great day all around. Got to see my parents at church and then went to enjoy a meal with my mom-in-love and wifey. Everything was superb. The Mongolian beef was extremely tender, the fried rice was delicious, just the way wifey likes it, hot and fresh. The wings were hot and crispy. The only item that didn't a home run for any of was the orange chicken. There was just too much orange flavoring which was a bit over barring. You really couldn't enjoy the taste of the chicken because of all the orange flavoring. It was enough food to feed a family four and being there was only three of us we had food to take back home for an always hungry daughter. I highly recommend the wings, house fried rice and the Mongolian beef. If you enjoy likes of orange flavor then add the orange. It was a good day. Pray, Eat, Love! M&M read more

I used to go here a lot for Wonton Soup. "Small" would be a very large container and "Large" would be two of the large containers. Then you get a bag of crispy wontons for topping. It contained many vegetables and also ham. Today I ordered a small and got a very, very small bowl; no crispy toppings, only a few wontons, carrots, and baby corn. No other veggies, no celery, no ham. Prices up and sizes down So disappointed read more
