A good place for Chinese food in Dale City This restaurant is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of Dale Blvd and Minnieville Road. It is in a reasonably large set of stores in the middle of the group of businesses. The parking is uncovered parking lot that all the stores directly open onto. There is plenty of parking for all the stores in this lot. Our group ordered takeout from this location and I picked it up. The inside of the restaurant had a large foyer at the front of the restaurant that seemed to occupy about of the space. There were about 6 booths lining the walls and several tables in the central seating area. There were not many people eating in the dining area but they had a healthy stream of customers picking up takeout. There did not seem to be much staff but the ones present were very friendly. The food was a little late from the time that they told us it would be ready. The food was reasonably priced and portion sizes were good. The food was very good. Overall, for the price, amount, and staff friendliness, I would visit this location in the future and recommend it to fellow travelers with the suggestion that the time the food will be ready should be viewed as an approximation. Enjoy.

1/2 Fried Chicken with shrimp fried rice

As a passionate Yelper I feel it's my duty to give a restaurant with 3 stars a try (especially if it's getting late and I'm hungry). I think I written this before most Chinese restaurants today have become very American. This one was no different except the food was not good. My sissy and I popped in and ordered 1/2 fried chicken with fried rice (2) (special) and fried dumplings. Each fried rice was changed to add pork or shrimp. The fried rice was bland and the grains were all different sizes which usually an indication of poor quality. The chicken was over cooked even though the color didn't show (weird). The dumplings were not freshly made and burned on one side (see pic). The bright spot is I think we chatted with the owners..nice people. She said the restaurant had been there forty years. It was also noted the 3 items with add-ons costs $41 which I think was expensive. At the end of the day this is no "gourmet" restaurant and didn't earn a return visit!

Best fried rice in Woodbridge but a little too much onion. Will ask for less next time and it will be perfect.

Decided to check this place out. Have been trying to find wings with mambo sauce in the area. We ordered the six piece wings and chicken fried rice to go. Was a little worried because the entrance, sign, and overall look of the outside was what my friends growing up in the city would call "sketch-pot". They even have the box to accept and give your food without contact. I'm used to that treatment from city living and it's nice to see they are Covid conscious. The food was a solid 3 stars. The chicken was a good original crispy wing but not too crispy. Will definitely order wings from here. Their mambo sauce was not what I was looking for but still a good sauce. The Fried rice was the show stopper for the group. I have been disappointed with fried rice since moving from the city but this is the best fried rice I've had in Woodbridge! That was a comment echoed by the other two Woodbridge-Ian's that were eating with me. We will need to try more staple dishes before I give it another star.

Delivery driver doesn't pay attention to the correct house numbers and as a result my grandfather who has been in the hospital for a month got a note saying he stole their food.

China gourmet has pretty good food! Their fried chicken was delicious , very crispy and has nice flavor. Their fries were good but just need some salt on them. Also their Mumbo is superb !

Best Chinese food in the Woodbridge area. The food is delicious & not overwhelming. I have been going here since I was a kid!! The restaurant still looks the same from the inside. Don't let the decor fool you the food is good. Reasonable portions and prices! The staff is friendly as well.

Used to be good but lately the last two times I've ordered it's been been tasteless and dry. Seems to be overlooked or leftover food.

This place is about average for Chinese food in this area but more expensive. I haven't eaten here in a long time.

In my opinion, this is the best Chinese food in Dale City and maybe even all of Woodbridge.

The Woodbridge area is not a hotbed for authentic Chinese cuisine so even though they offer some dishes that sound on paper to be less Chinese American like wonton noodle soup with roast pork (a Cantonese classic), it ended up being a mishmash of leftover stir fried veggies with lo mein noodles rather than the signature thin egg noodles and the wonton filling used a cheap cut of minced pork. The only saving grace was that the broth was not laden with MSG, which would have been expected to substitute for a well simmered broth. My advice is to stick with the Chinese American classics like lo mein, beef and broccoli, general Tao's chicken, etc since they execute them well and give two scoops of rice with a lunch special proving $7.95. I think they keep their costs down since it is curbside pickup without delivery or dine in, a consequence post-pandemic which they never decided to reverse. An excellent option if you want solid Chinese -American fare at below market price in the style of a drug deal pickup.

What went wrong? Everything, No kidding. I reviewed Good Taste Express' review of 4 and then its…read moremenu. Next, I drove there to find the door was locked, and I had to call in my order from outside. So, I ordered vegetable fried rice, Szechuan chicken, and a spring roll. I did not enjoy anything. The chicken was chewy, and its sauce was too salty. The vegetables and rice were not fresh; and the spring roll tasted like it was store bought and frozen. Sorry, I am just being honest. I am sure they had a good reason for locking their doors; and I respect this. However, they need to ask customers what type of condiments they want and not assume a hand full of soy sauce to the already salty food.
