Really really hoping the food is extremely good because the prices on their online menu (mind you, from 8 years ago) aren't accurate at all and I was way over charged more than I expected, so REALLY hoping the food is amazing otherwise I'd never come back or suggest this place to anyone. It looks shady not having your prices accurate on yelp, your website or your menu. Hella disappointed especially because they were rude on the phone as well. First time trying this place, not impressed at all.

Pupu Platter

Best Chinese food I've had in a very long time. We drove all the way from Pismo Beach, well worth the drive! BBQ Pork Chow Fun - Amazing Pupu Platter - Amazing (especially beef skewers)

Delicious twice cooked pork.

This is a really great lunch special, beautiful presentation in a special bento style box -see the photo. The food is very fresh, tasty, and large portions. Loved the pretty ambiance, great service, and tasty food. Highly recommended!

What was, Orange Chicken and Shrimp Fried Rice

New to Paso but already found my new favorite restaurant for Wonton Soup, Orange Chicken, and fried rice.

China Gourmet, located in Paso Robles, serves Chinese food with really fancy, upscale dining. They have an extensive wine wall with an incredible amount of local wine available! Their Chinese food is one of the best around, in my opinion. Everything we order is always fresh, super hot and absolutely delicious! My husband and I usually order chicken chow mein, orange chicken, sizzling black pepper steak and crab rangoon - Amazing!!! Only thing to note is that they are quite pricey (probably due to the fact that if you dine in it is quite fancy). We usually only order to-go/for pick up, so the price is a little steep since we're not staying in dine in, but, it's worth it in our opinion as good Chinese food is hard to come by in this area! Highly recommend if you're looking for really delicious Chinese food that never disappoints!

I was looking for a place to enjoy some appetizers and drinks, and I'm so glad I stopped here. Lily…read morewas my server, and she did an amazing job recommending dishes and specials. I had the short rib taco, which was really good, but the Ahi Crudo was definitely my favorite. Lily was very knowledgeable about the menu and recommended some local beers, which convinced me to try something different, and I have no regrets. The food and drinks were excellent. As someone who has worked in the restaurant industry for over two decades, I have to say I was very impressed by the service from the entire staff, from the moment I approached the host stand to the moment I left. It truly felt like everyone paid attention to detail. Lily's service was outstanding. I hope to come back soon and try some of the main dishes.

Hannah is a wonderful server who went above and beyond , thank you! Casual atmosphere for sure. We ordered the ceviche for our appetizer, messy but so good. Nice pieces of shrimp in this dish. For dinner I ordered the tacos, two carnitas and two of the short rib. Omg these were so delicious, I was licking my fingers after. The meats were juicy and tender and the toppings put them on cloud 9. My husband ordered the carne asada , meat was sooo tender, it came with mashed potatoes and sautéed veggies. Sooo good also! We ordered a side of rice and beans , plenty for two people to share. Since we were celebrating my birthday , I received a wonderful birthday dessert and shot. The dessert was a chocolate tres leches cake, which was so moist. The shot made this birthday extra phenomenal!

We ordered the chili cucumber and birdie juice. 10/10, yummy, strong, and enjoyable We ordered raw oysters which were solid. Also the Rockefeller which was super good! Pretty solid options for food, drinks, and friendly service. Will be back!

This was my second visit to Pappy McGregor's in about six months. It had been recommended by…read morefriends who live in the area, and my first experience was solid enough that I was looking forward to coming back. On my first visit (evening), we walked in without a reservation and were quickly seated at the last available table. The place had a lively atmosphere, and it looked like part of the space turns into more of a dance floor later in the night. I had the French onion soup, raw oysters, and the pot pie, all of which were good. The pot pie in particular is something I would recommend. This most recent visit was for lunch on a weekday. There were plenty of open tables, and we were seated right away. Parking was easy, which is typical outside of busy weekends. The experience this time around was more mixed. We wanted to order oysters Rockefeller, but they were completely out of oysters, which was disappointing. I ordered a black and tan, which tasted fine, but it came with a design on top that I wasn't expecting. Not a big deal, just different from what I had in mind. For food, my girlfriend ordered the blackened salmon and said it was good. I went with the corned beef and cabbage. The corned beef itself was flavorful and served over mashed potatoes, which were well done. The cabbage, though, wasn't what I expected. Instead of a more traditional preparation, it was grilled with char marks and topped with au jus. The texture came out a bit rubbery and didn't really absorb the flavor well, which made that part of the dish underwhelming. Service was okay but not great. My water ran empty at one point, and I had to ask for a refill. We also ordered boneless wings as an appetizer and asked for extra ranch, which didn't come out until we reminded the server. The biggest issue, though, was something I noticed from our table with a partial view into the kitchen. An employee had their shoe up on a shelf that appeared to be holding clean dishes, which didn't come across as sanitary. I also saw food being adjusted on a plate by someone who didn't appear to be the cook. I can't speak to what's happening behind the scenes in terms of handwashing or procedures, but visually, it raised concerns. That part of the experience honestly left a bad impression. Between that, the missed items, and some inconsistencies with the food, it changed how I feel about coming back. My first visit had me excited to return, but after this one, I'm not sure I would.
