This is not the best Chinese food out there, however if you are looking for something quick and cheap and local to Vallejo, this is the spot! My usual order is the 2 entree combo with chow mien. My favorite entrees are the tofu dishes, orange chicken, and broccoli beef. Their pot stickers are also pretty yum as well as their wonton soup. Be prepared to wait though as they are typically pretty busy, even if you pre-ordered your food. Cash is best here but they also take cards. read more

BUG IN THE FOOD!! It was in the container of food which was packaged by the combo express staff and not opened until I opened it when I got home. The bug was STILL ALIVE with its feelers moving around and it was WALKING AROUND next to the chicken.I can never eat combo express again.So gross!!! I took most of the chicken out to take a better picture of the big. read more

Combo Express - Bug with the food. - Seafood Near Me - Vallejo, California

For me it's the egg roll and pot stickers, the real deal not that frost want to be but real homemade Pot Stickers, same with the egg rolls, they even have a bit of meat in with the fresh veggies, I love them however, as a gross grow, they are a bit expensive, you are definitely paying for good quality, so it's worth it. read more

I love this place so much. There food is always so good and it never disappoints. This time however i was eating my left over food because they fill it up so much and i found a metal piece in my food. Now before you start thinking, i never took the food out of its container that it came in and i used a plastic fork to remove the food to heat it up. I am very disappointed and would love for someone to reach out to me regarding this situation. I love this place and just sad this happened read more

There's no dine in option, everything is take out only. Prices are very reasonable. Even when the line seems long it goes by pretty quick. My family loves to get the salt and pepper fish, honey walnut prawns, orange chicken and fried rice and wonton soup. read more

A Vallejo staple for Chinese food! Combo Express has been the go to for years. Not only is the food ready to go, but because they are so busy you are almost guaranteed fresh food because of the high turnover. This place is exceptionally great for buying food for gatherings/pot lucks/large events. The chicken with spicy salt is a must have. It's the first thing that comes to mind when I need to bring food to any event as you can order trays, usually half or a full tray, which they fill past the brim! Truly you get a bang for your buck when it comes to your orders. Tip: if you like the chicken with spicy salt but are looking for a pescatarian option call ahead and order the fish with spicy salt - essentially fried fish! It's just as good but caters to those who are avoiding meat. This must be called ahead of time as it's a special order. It appears they even do tofu with spicy salt which also is a special order these days. read more

This little whole in the wall place is one of my favorite Chinese food restaurants in this area. It's always consistently good! I chow mein, orange chicken, eggs rolls, salt n pepper fish and chicken are my favorites!! U get a whole meal for around $9. Most bang for your buck! read more

5 stars - clean, with arrows on the ground for people to follow entry and exit, friendly staff, and delicious food. It was first time visiting the Chinese fast food steam table. They serve large portions and now I can see why people actually like their food. I ordered their spicy salt fish, mushroom tofu, and their potstickers. I was not disappointed. As I waited for my fish to be freshly made, the other customers were ordering their 2 entree plates ($9.55) and the ladies stuffed those containers full. I would say this is better than spending $12+ at Panda Express. Just and FYI- Their pot stickers have a pork and cabbage filling and their egg rolls have chicken filling. read more

Best fried fish and pork ribs .. love their tofu/eggplant too. Convenient and quick phone orders are great when in a rush.

This restaurant used to be my go to; but now never again! Their fish filet is covered in such thick batter you have to look for the fish! the same with their fried chicken! They used to give you heap full of serving -- not anymore! They won't even give you napkins nor cutleries! And their prices have 'thickened,' too! Sad for ordinary people like me! read more

Favorite place to grab an amazing and generous plate of spicy and salted chicken literally nothing better!

Always a great value. The salt and pepper chicken is so good and they really pack their plates. This isn't gourmet or authentic Chinese food but instead super fast and cheap Chinese. Go in worth the right expectation and this place is awesome. We also got the egg plan tofu and broccoli beef which were also both solid. read more

The portions are HUGE. Do not sleep on this hole in the wall. I had the bbq chicken and spicy salt chicken. This is what Panda Express wishes it could be. read more

Yes. Order the potstickers. I am definitely not a potsticker fan, but these housemade dumplings are damn delicious. I am not a fan of my usual staples from Chinese places. Their orange chicken and sweet and sour pork really lack flavor and sauce. You really want to get the Spicy Salt Chicken and if you order ahead, I HIGHLY recommend their Spicy Salt Fish. That is probably my fav dish there, so far. Everything tastes so fresh at Combo. Their fried rice and chow mein are both better than most sit down restaurants. On top of all of the tasty food, the ladies who serve it up to go are all really nice. They treat regulars really well, but also treat noobs great. Working on being a regular there. I never would have thought the best Chinese food in Vallejo would be at a steam table to go place and yet, whoomp there it is! read more

If you are in Vallejo and in the mood for inexpensive Chinese style food, this is a great choice. Combo is basically a home style version of Panda Express. Is it authentic? Nope, but it's tasty, filling and cheap. Served by the same group of Chinese ladies since their opening years ago. The steam table items are good. The standout are the spicy salt entrees. We have also had the orange chicken, soft tofu with mushroom, fried tofu with eggplant, bbq chicken, egg rolls and potstickers. All are good. The egg rolls are huge and very good as are the potstickers. Both are definitely homemade, not out of a box or bag. You can also call in for entree orders and special party sized trays. With Covid, there is no more eat in, but this is a takeout place to start with. They have the floor marked off for people in line and on weekends, the line extends to the door. Four stars for comfort food in Vallejo. read more

You want a big plate for 2 this is it bro. This place has held me down since high school

My family love this place. You get a lot of tasty food for your money. The women working are very friendly and seems to know customers by name. They ask about my family all the time and I noticed they give extras sometimes. They are always busy but it is worth the little wait. Their salt and peppered fish fillet is awesome! read more

New Serving Staff (Young People) they got there are skimping on the food HARD! WHY WHY WHY??? Always used to be FAT Portions! Other than that food is still good way better that Panda Express but Combo Express is not giving as much FOOD as they used to give Now a days when you see all over social media of Chinese food places (example) LA giving TWICE as much Food for the same price Combo Express yall got no excuse to be sorting on portions! Knowing LA rent it way more than Vallejo... Up your Portions keep the Price the same and get MORE Customers instead of Losing customers... read more

Great food and prompt service. Clean premises and equipment. Tasty bbq chicken and the best salt and pepper fish

Eggrolls big and crispy, potstickers with a crispy bottom bomb. Always nice, quick and willing to make something fresh.

Combo express is not only getting in there and point what you want from those already cooked food. You can also pick from their menu. The walnut prawn is so delicious and the rice noodles with shrimp and veggies. All very tasty . I recommend this establishment. read more

Great salt & pepper chicken for a great price..... I pre ordered a tray and it was delicious

Our family's go to spot for a yummy and quick meal! They give huge portions and never disappoints. We've tried almost everything on their menu but we usually come back for the salt & spicy chicken, bbq chicken, fried smelt, & potstickers. read more

Service is very quick food is hella good. And it's fairly cheap. 11$ for two item combo which is enough for TWO big meal. Definitely recommend. read more

Combo Express - Seafood Near Me - Vallejo, California

been my favorite Chinese food restaurant for 30 years, now the new owners don't bother to answer their phones so that people can place an order. Guess they don't need my business anymore. I live on the other side of the bridge and don't want to risk paying toll and heading over, to find out they are closed, Or don't have what I want. I'm very sad to see the new owners being unresponsive to phone orders.The previous owners were much more reliable and consistent. read more

Bomb.con my favorite Chinese food in town. Portions big enough to feed two people on one combo plate. There are so many good things here. Pot stickers, egg rolls, won ton soup, bbq chicken, chicken wings, fried shrimp, and chicken with spicy salt. Actually there are more. Really you can't go wrong. The line is long for a reason. I've been going here for years they know my whole family. I'm getting hungry just talking about it. Oh yeah the chow mein is my favorite. I definitely recommend combo express to anyone the ladies that work there are super friendly. Check it out and have a bite to eat. read more

Combo Express - Seafood Near Me - Vallejo, California

This is basic bland express chinese food. They have a lot of choices. Eggrolls are over priced, full of cabbage and no flavor. This is a good spot if you don't want to pay too much and need a quick fix. The food gets 2 stars. The staff are great people. Very friendly and kind. So I gave 3 stars because all around they are not terrible. There's no where to sit or eat your food. They still require you to wear a mask. I might try it again in a few months or so. We spent $150 for a group of 10. Tried plenty of dishes. Just not enough flavor. Wish it was better. Would love to be a returning customer since they are so nice. read more

I was craving cheap Chinese food, so I went back to Combo Express again today. Social distancing and masks enforced. The employees are also isolated from the customers. The Spicy Salt Chicken always hits the spot, and the Chicken & Green Beans was cooked perfectly. (The beans still had that crunch!) Tried the Won Ton Soup for the first time, too, and I must say that now I understand why so many Yelp reviews rave about it. Friendly service and tasty food. Thanks, Combo Express! read more

The taste of the food has changed since the original owners that I've known for many years (18+) is no longer there. Their Spicy Salt Chicken is too salty to even consume. They changed their Salt & Pepper Spareribs to Pork Chops and it's not the same. Too fatty and the taste is different. I like the OG ladies. They were nice. Now they have a younger crew that's not friendly and the guy that answers the phone is pretty rude! Unfortunately, this was my final purchase here. read more

Huge portions in the lunch plates. Chow mein - wonderful, thick chewy noodles Chicken w/spicy salt - just tasted like deep fried chicken, probably won't try again Black pepper chicken - wonderful flavor with a nice kick Eggroll - huge with great notes of ginger. Sweet and Sour pork - acceptable Orange chicken - didn't really taste orange but was very tender and tasty Pot stickers - amazing. So wonderful The food is overall great, and for the Price is amazing. The woman working today were sooooooo nice. This will be my new go-to Chinese. If I ever think about going to Panda Express again I will have to kick my own a$$. read more

Have you ever watched one of those Instagram or Tik Tok vids of someone stuffing HELLA Chinese food into those styrofoam food containers? Well, this is one of those places. The folks at Combo Express clearly know the structural integrity of those containers because after they stuff the Chow Mein, Salt and Pepper Pork, and Brocolli Beef in that single container, that thing is about to burst at the seams. Miraculously, it doesn't. And eating Chinese food out of one of those containers just HITS different. Food is excellent, they put in just the right amount of MSG to keep me coming back. I can eat that brocolli beef every day of the week, and if I get a kidney stone because if it, I'd feel like its worth it, knowing that it came from Combo Express and their awesome food. read more

The salted chicken I highly recommend it is so good! Very tasty. Staff could be a bit nicer. The only nice staff they have is the man at the cash register. Restaurant is very outdated. read more

The first we went there ver generous serving. We came back for the chow mein and they are not as good. Little vege and meat and mostly noodles. The sweet and sour was hard. Not very generous the 2nd time around. This is dissaponting., Will not be back any time soon....will not recommend to my family and friends... read more

Love this place - huge portions, great prices, friendly service. I always get their chicken w/ spicy salt. It's super crispy and the leftovers are great too when you stick them in the toaster oven later. Usually just buy the chicken to-go and eat it at home with rice ... but their combo plates are a great deal as well. You can get rice, fried rice, or chow mein along with a variety of entrees. One combo plate is more than enough for two people to share. They also have all of the other standard dishes - spicy eggplant, kung pao chicken, etc. Pretty similar to Panda Express, but much more bang for your buck. Plus it's always nice to support local businesses! read more

Tried this place because a coworker said it was good--it's not. The popcorn fried chicken tasted like they used almost-rotten-the-next-day chicken, and the chicken in the fried rice tasted the same way. My husband, who basically uses magic to conjure up great food, also agreed that the chicken was going rancid when they cooked it. Cheap, nasty chicken. And then they douse the food with MSG to hide the fact that their protein is old. No thanks. I was looking forward to this because I love Chinese food, but this was a bummer. Go somewhere else. And if the manager is reading this, go buy fresh chicken. Stop pawning off your old sh** onto paying customers. read more

One of the best Chinese restaurants I've been to in a while. Everything I ordered was good especially the spicy salt chicken.

You get your money's worth here with combo plates. Plates are stuffed with enough food for two. Wor wanton soup is excellent, along with freshly made pot stickers. read more

people serving are friendly. the amount of food is plenty enough for individual.the place is clean and presentable.

Outstanding wonton soup. Take out only. I'm going to store 5 if these containers in my freezer Taste is great. The value fabulous. There seem to be a few negative reviews in the post. I say to them don't go to the place because your pretentious and toxic complaints will just take up space in the line for those who love this little takeout restaurant. read more

Can we talk about the freshness of the taste and the flavor in every bite?? Because I promise you this is worth the calories and clogged arteries. The favorite hands down is the salt fish. It never fails! read more
