    Moo Shu Chicken (W. Pancakes) - ate the pancakes before I got a picture!

    Our favorite Chinese place in the area. Love the cashew chicken, usually get it as a combination plate. The soup that comes with the combo is good--I really like the dumplings. Got the moo shu chicken for the first time today and it was great. Excellent service, they're all very friendly and helpful. Conveniently located across from Walmart, it's casual, but still a nice sit down place to get lunch or dinner.

    General Chicken Lunch Special

    Came here for the lunch special and i usually don't dine in at all but the ambiance of the place was so nice that I was willing to try the experience-- around the time I arrived I was the only one inside * very mellow and relaxing oldies music and intimate/private comfortable seating {they have booths available}* per the pricing: a lunch special with that much portion was worth the $12 ! Complimentary wonton soup as well if you dine in. It immediately cured my hangover lol. For the total price for one it is definitely considered affordable and will get you full! I totaled around $29 due to ordering a wonton noodle soup to go. Service was quick and comforting, staff was nice and hospitable {ive never been in a place where they box up your left overs in front of you --i thought that was so sweet} . I see that they acknowledge and converse with their regulars as well per my observation. Overall i would say 8 out of ten! Not bad at all. Per the general chicken i ordered, the sauce was good! But the spice isn't there as noted in the menu. Even then, fried rice was good and the chicken portion was generous. Everything else redeemed it. Will come back again. Thank you so much.

    Huge portions, delicious food, quick service, nice people and nice place! We were so happy we tried this restaurant! I wish we were closer! We live in Arizona, but we were visiting family in California. We will definitely stop by here again whenever we are in town!

    Combination chow fun (dry)
    Loren P.

    My husband and I were in Placerville last weekend for a dog show and were hungry for some Chinese food after. I quickly checked Yelp and Grand China came highly recommended. We saw that the restaurant was out of the way in a quiet area of Placerville. As it was the Memorial Day weekend, we did not want to go anywhere near downtown. So this worked out great for us. Upon arrival, we were only one of two couples in the restaurant. It was very quiet and peaceful, and the booths were extremely comfortable. Our eyes were drawn to the lunch specials immediately. For only $12 this was a steal, and I was very happy to find that wonton soup was served with our meal! Usually you only get a choice of hot and sour or egg flower soup at other establishments. I chose the shrimp with black bean sauce and my husband chose the Mongolian beef. We also got a combination chow fun to share. Our wonton soups were at our table in no time, and when I say this is one of the best wonton soups I've had at a Chinese-American restaurant, I'm not kidding. The broth was clear while full of flavor, and the wontons themselves were delicious and the skins were not overcooked, as can be common. The soups were devoured in minutes. Next, our lunch specials arrived in less than 15 minutes, and we were certainly not ready for the portion sizes at all. While we were hungry, we definitely knew that there would be leftovers for home, especially since we also got a dish to share. All the flavors were on point, and I loved how saucy my black bean shrimp was. I got to try a bit of my husband's Mongolian beef and that was excellent too. The fried rice was your typical flavor, but I would have liked to see more of the "wok hay." We tried the chow fun next and while it was pretty good, I was also expecting a "wok hay" flavor, which I did not taste. I'd like to try some other noodle dishes next time, but this was not my favorite. However, the pieces of meat were huge for what we paid ($12). We ended up bringing a bunch of leftovers home, and I'm quite happy to find this restaurant tucked away in Placerville, where there is a dearth of Asian food. The service was also awesome and very friendly. Our waters were refilled and we were checked on promptly. I'd love to return and try other dishes Grand China has to offer!

    Sesame Chicken
    Crystal H.

    Boyfriend has been raving about this spot, and I finally got the chance to try it today! When I tell you this is NOW one of my favorite Chinese American restaurants I have ever been to, it really is! The staff were sweet and casually chat and welcome their customers. I got the sesame chicken and it was sweet, tangy, the teensiest bit spicy and just overall the best. Their lunch special 11-13$) is an insane deal for a great amount of food. It contains an egg roll, wonton cracker, your choice of entree from list, fried rice/white rice, an orange slice, and a side of wonton soup. TRULY IF YOU ARE IN THIS AREA AND WANT A GOOD DEAL AND SOME YUMMY FOOD DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND CHECK THEM OUT!

    Honey Walnut Prawn

    Authentic and traditional dishes. Our to go for Chinese foods for 5 years. A must place to visit on your way up to Tahoe or visiting Hangtown, downtown Placerville.

    Great food and service! We had honey walnut prawns, generals chicken, chow mein, crab Rangoon's and sweet and sour soup. Hardly anything left to take home!

    Delicious house special beef, Happy Family, Sesame chicken.
    Sue B.

    We came here on a Saturday night at 5:30pm with our friend, Gene. and had no trouble getting seated. this restaurant has friendly service and we like the Decour, especially the large chandelier with the mirror ceiling. We started with the sizzling rice soup. It was pretty tasty. We ordered a small with easily fed the three of us and would've fed four of us. We ordered three dishes for our main course: house special beef, sesame, chicken, happy family. The sesame chicken was made differently than other ones we've had. It was large pieces of fried chicken breasts with a sweet sauce. It reminded us of orange chicken. The chicken breast was tender and moist. Our favorite were the house special beef and the happy family. I always love dishes like the happy family that come with meat and vegetables. The portions are quite large and we had plenty of leftovers!

    Delicious food and fast, wonderful service . Our dishes were prepared promptly and were delicious ! I especially loved their hot and sour soup .

The service is simple but good, it's always the same lady working and she is just really nice- doesn't bother you too much but you don't have to track her down if you need anything, she's good at keeping her eye on the room. My absolute favorite dish is their mongolian beef, it's amazing. Heavy on the onions which i like and always in incredibly tender. I got it as an entree in the photo below, but if you order it on the dinner special you still get a hefty portion, with a huge mound of rice (try the veggie fried rice), this AWESOME cream cheese rangoon, and a choice of hot & sour soup or egg drop soup. I highly recommend their egg drop soup, it is hands down the best egg drop soup i have ever had. it's the perfect viscosity with green onions and little tofu pieces, and it has a nice sesame nutty flavor to it. Please come try this place! It's as good as the reviews say :)

People in my family also liked the stir-fried beef with wide rice noodles, kung pao chicken, and whole pieces of fried chicken. The one desert was sesame balls.

Simple tables and chairs, 2 bathrooms (with disposable seat covers available), and disposable plates, forks, cups, etc. Floor was just a little sticky. You just walk right in, grab a plate, and start loading up. Once you sit down, someone will bring drinks. While there, many people came in for the to-go options. When we went to pay our bill, they also offered a $4.95 kids price. What? Not sure how they survive! Would definitely come back if I were a local.
