House combination rice noodles
Cin-Yee S.

Had this local legend on my list for a while and finally had a chance to check it out last night. The salt and pepper chicken wings were incredible, and the house rice noodles were just fine. Service was very welcoming and friendly, with the staff even offering to text me when my order was ready. I don't generally get this more heavily battered style of chicken wings (I like them lightly dredged/seasoned/floured, fried, then sauced and seasoned), but when I do, I'll be back for the even more popular garlic wings. Note: there are also select Southeast Asian items on offer, like Singaporean and Malaysian noodle dishes, Thai soup, etc.

Spicy garlic wings and garlic wings
Sarah T.

For years, China station spicy garlic wings used to be a staple at every party. There are new owners after Covid and order with them is still over the phone. The pick up was easy and the cashier was helpful and polite. The restaurant looks basically the same except they turned the register and counter to face the door now. First time I had China station under new ownership, I was very disappointed that the wings recipe changed for worse. But this time, the wings were good and like 90% to how they good they used to be. The spicy garlic wings have a new redder look, still missing that intense garlic flavor and wasn't very spicy, but the crunch and the savory flavor are good. The regular garlic wings look like the original but it's not spicy at all and needs more garlic. The crunch on both of these flavors was awesome. Maybe these wings are as close to the previous owners' as they can get. We'll be coming back again

Had to give China station another try after the disastrous visit I had when they reopened a few years ago. Happy to say the garlic fried chicken is back to how it used to taste! Crispy, garlicky and not too oily. Very good! I usually only order the fried chicken but this time I decided to try the Singapore noodles. It was quite good, huge order, lots of ingredients and pretty tasty! I will be back!

China Station has reopened! After a pretty long stint of being closed, they've opened their doors to welcome new and returning customers. During this soft reopening, they're taking in feedback and evaluating how to best serve their customers. Come try! The long awaited visit to China Station has finally come but it is only after they've supposedly changed ownership. We have heard great things about their food, namely their infamous crispy chicken. And as a first time visitor, that's exactly what we got. There was definitely a sticker shock ($14 for 7 pieces) but we figured it was still worth a try. The pieces were medium sized, breaded lightly, and were freshly made to order. We placed an order for the non-spicy, garlic one as well as a separate one for the spicy, chili powder covered variation. The chicken definitely lived up to the hype. The texture was amazingly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The chicken was fried throughly so that even the cartilage was soft enough to crunch through. The seasoning and flavoring was great - not too salty but the non-spicy was accentuated from the fried garlic that topped it and the spicy one had just enough chili powder to tickle your senses but not linger too long and overpower your palate. But at two bucks a piece, it's too steep for a frequent buy but perhaps a guilty pleasure every blue moon or so. The shop is located in a tiny, inconspicuous mall shared by other amazing mom and pop shops serving authentic ethnic cuisine. They do have a dedicated parking lot that is rarely occupied and it's conveniently located near the highway so it's a nice place to come pick up your meal before heading home or to your next potluck event. For those with children, it's also located near a public park so you could perhaps considering including some Chinese food into your busy schedule. Overall, my first impression of China Station was a good one and I look forward to coming back to try their other dishes. The prices may need to be evaluated to stay competitive with similar restaurants nearby. Otherwise as long as the food quality stays consistent and they continue upholding their great reputation while establishing new customers, China Station will do great and can serve their customers for years to come.

Garlic fried wings are back! One order is enough to feed 2 ppl. BBQ pork fried rice and Mongolian beef is legit.

Remodel inside and they added a portable A/C

I have been coming here for a long time to get the garlic chicken wing, I recently move and came back after a couple of years. I came to order the wings and noticed a young lady instead of the boy or old man. I ask the lady if this is under new ownership, she said yes, the lady's says the old man retired and nothing has change. So I gave it a try and I'm glad I did because the wings have the same taste and I will be coming back every time I'm back in time.

Notify the press! China Station is back! Still soft opening, but they know what's important... spicy fried chicken wings! From what I was told, it is not the same owners, but they are related, so recipe is the same. From what I ate today, it sure tastes the same! Please note that during soft opening, the menu is limited (no party trays yet) and it is cash only!

Wendy N.

Today's soft opening. New owner! Reopened under new management. Friendly owners. Place looks the same just clean. New front counters. Tried out the infamous garlic wings to see if it's the same. I'm going to have to say not the same. The crunch factor is there but the taste is not. Also tried the spicy garlic wings. Just a hint of spice and the flavor is also lacking. In my opinion both wings need more flavor.

This was a typical Cantonese style eatery where you would get together for family gatherings and/or to celebrate events. The decor had the usual elements that you would expect from such a place: crystal chandeliers, fish tanks, gold columns, and giant TV screens. We tried their 10-course banquet-style dinner that they were advertising for $488 (before tax) and I believe this special was only available on weekdays. Portion sizes were extremely generous, and they did not skimp on the ingredients either. The banquet courses included delicacies such as suckling pig, geoduck, whole fish, and lobster to name a few. This meal easily fed ten people, and we still had plenty of leftovers to take home. It was such a great value that towards the end of the evening the restaurant sold out of their banquet special. Overall, the food was pretty good...even though they did overcook the lobster. They have their own huge parking area, so it was super convenient. The dining area was very spacious. The service was casual and efficient. I went to dinner with no expectations, so I was pleasantly surprised. This place impressed my family that they even came back the next morning to try their dim sum.

The variety makes it especially fun when you're with a group since you can order a bunch of different things and share everything around the table. Also, the cart servers are truly superwomen/men! I'm not sure how they move those carts around so quickly lol. Definitely part of the fun of the whole dim sum experience.

My family and I have been coming here for years and it's never disappointed us. We enjoy many of their dishes, but their Beef Chow Fun, Mongolian Beef. House Fried Rice, String Bean with Black Bean Sauce and Honey Walnut Prawns are our faves. The quality of their food is really good. They have been known to give you a free soda or complimentary dish too. With today's economy, that's a good deal. We were given complimentary Spring Rolls yesterday. They also pack the To-Go containers to the top. Parking is behind the restaurant and there's inside seating too. The owner is really friendly and accommodating. The ambiance level is also really good. Till my next visit.

Unfortunately, the theory failed me this time. The service was great, which should have been a red flag for me. The guy at the window was really friendly and helpful--he had us laughing the whole time. The food came out within minutes, even though we ordered 3-4 à la carte things. That should have been the second red flag. We really wanted to like the food because of the service, but the food was greasy and super salty. We ordered sweet and sour chicken, chicken chow mein, house chow fun, and walnut prawns with egg rolls. Sweet and sour chicken was average--not good or bad. Chicken chow mein was in a pool of soy sauce, way too salty. House chow fun was supposed to have shrimp--it literally had two. This too was drenched in soy sauce. Lastly, the walnut prawns were not bad, but again, we can get those anywhere else--no need to come back here for them. Overall, probably will not be back for their food. It is really sad because we really enjoyed the service.

We started with the One Piece Mixed Salad (tofu skin, vermicelli noodles, woodear mushrooms, carrots, celery, seaweed, and peanuts, all mixed in a savory, acidic, and spicy dressed ) and the Shredded Potato Salad, both of which made for nice appetizers. We also had the Cold Skin Noodles (Liangpi), a bowl of wide, chewy noodles mixed with a savory sauce and topped with tofu puffs, shredded cucumber , bean sprouts, and a creamy sesame sauce. Hailing from Xi'an, the Braised Pork Pita Burger was fatty pieces of pork braised in a savory sauce, served in a dry round of "pita," but even better was the Spicy Cumin Lamb Pita Burger, which contained a tantalizingly spicy, flavorful filling of tender spiced lamb. The Signature Beef Bone Noodle Soup came with noodles in a simple broth, topped with three bone-in beef ribs. The meat on the ribs was rather tough and sinewy, and the soup on the bland side, but the presentation of the dish was definitely impressive. Finally, the House Special Braised Dry Noodle was a bowl of noodles topped with a savory sauce with lots of different dried ingredients including tofu, s mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and red bell peppers. For each noodle dish, you could select from a variety of noodles, but my favorite by far was the 2cm "General Wide" noodles, which had an amazing chewy texture. Overall, this was a great restaurant for authentic Northern Chinese noodle dishes and other eats. Everything came out from the kitchen in just minutes after we ordered. The tasty dishes came at a good value, and the service was super friendly too!

There seems to have some menu change since the last time we came. We ordered 2 dry noodles and a cold spicy pig ears appetizer. The pig ears were piled up with no fillers - something hard to find these days. You can select the type of noodles so I picked the widest while my husband picked the middle one. I love the el dente texture of the noodles giving it a bit of chew. My braised pork belly dry noodles was not dry... very watery which was not to my liking. I want my dry noodles with as little gravy as possible. The flavor was light despite all the gravy, but the veggies and one egg made it up. The house special dry noodles had just the right amount of gravy for taste but not enough ingredients. I was wondering why the restaurant is called One Piece... I guess the entire bowl of noodles is one piece noodle as it was hard to eat as all the noodles are tangled. No complaints here just need to be careful with the splashes on your shirt. Overall the food was good, service was decent as we were offered actual menu instead of only using QR code to order. The place was not small with plenty of table. A bit noise as with all Chinese restaurants.

Remember to ask for the ginger container so you can put your condiments in to dunk them in. Pan Fried Chive Dumplings with scallop and shrimp (5/5) $14.50 You get 3 very crispy dumplings. Extra chives in the middle so you must love chives along with diced up scallops and shrimp. Very tasty! Spicy Cumin Zhajian Noodles with Pork (4/5) $15.95 It wasn't too spicy very tolerable and slight sweet cumin flavor sticky pieces of pork. Make sure to toss well with the noodles. It also comes with thinly sliced cucumbers and bean sprouts (which I should have removed from the dish) as we both actually don't eat it. Shrimp and Pork Shao Mai (4/5) $14.50 Comes with 5 pieces. Each piece was a good size and juicy. I would definitely come back to try more dishes. Come with more people to try a variety of them!
