It's a wild mix in the food court. The Hunan China Express served sushi and stir fry. It was actually easy to pick out a diabetic friendly order. I went with the sushi. It was delicious freshly made-the flavors were carefully composed so you got different tastes as you bit into the roll. There was just a hint of smoke to the seaweed. Much more than expected from a food court offering. All for 6.99. A nice price, just enough food to take the edge off. Customer service was literally the best Asia could offer. I haven't seen lovely good manners like that in a long time. Alas it's in a food court. Fast food ambiance. But very clean. read more

My second visit to this family owned food court restaurant. The first time we enjoyed the Mongolian beef which was very tender with a flavorful sauce! Today we visited and bought their pork egg rolls. These are the best egg rolls I've had since we moved here earlier this year. Will definitely be returning to buy more! Business seems slow in the food court so make sure to visit! read more

Given this was the only spot to get a meal in the outlet mall, we appreciated their food! It was well priced for what we got. Personally I think the fried rice and chow mein didn't have enough flavor but the meats were great. The spicy chicken was delicious in flavor and perfect amount of crispy-ness. The potstickers took 5 minutes for them to make but we're done fresh and we're very yummy. They have lots of places to sit like a food court with bathrooms and lots of parking out front because it is in an outdoor mall. read more

Strange to see such a low rating here, but don't let that fool you the food here is fantastic and made by great people. The sushi was fresh and really great for the price and the Chinese food is awesome as well. Support small businesses! read more

Service was good, wonton was fresh took a few mins to make but was quick. Rest of good was meh, chicken chow mein noodles were really soft and more like a pasta with no sauce. Broccoli beef was meh, and the spicy chicken was ok good sauce but the chicken was dry. Then it really killed the meal when I found the hair. Got this order to go so not like I can walk up and complain and get it taken care of. Wonton soup was good and fresh / hot. read more

It's great for take out Chinese food NOT as good as JADE GARDEN or WAH SING (these are the two best Chinese Restaurants in Napa) but better than Panda Express (which I like but I like this place better) never had a dish I didn't like. If you are craving Chinese this place hits the spot! Good portions. Friendly people. Great prices. read more

This is steam table Chinese. As long as you know what you're getting into, it's pretty good. There are a lot of choices available, but I'll be honest that a lot of them look similar and kind of dried out. They'll let you sample any thought, so you can check to be sure! This will probably be one of the cheapest places in Napa you can find. $7.89 will get you two entrees and chicken lo main, as opposed to $12 getting you a tiny tapa. I went here when I needed to sober up from a Napa Valley Distillery event, and it did the job great. I got the spicy chicken and the king's chicken (basically kung pao), and both were quite tasty. The spice isn't too intense but it's definitely there. If you're spice sensitive, I'd recommend trying first. I highly recommend adding their hot sauce too. Delicious. The chicken low mein was better than most mall Chinese starches, but you'll still find they're skimpy on the chicken. Overall, I'd happy come back here, but I won't be going out of my way to tell people about it. read more

Food looks and tastes like it's been sitting out for days. Very greasy. The skip of the portions. The lady was putting in the noodles and still had the audacity to take out a noodle from the plate. I guess I got one too many noodles. read more

I was at the Outlets doing some shopping and thought I'd check out the "food court". I hadn't been in there in years and was surprised to find just 2 choices, Suppertime and Hunan China. I thought I'd opt for the "healthier" choice and went to Hunan. I ordered Broccoli Beef and mixed veggies. No rice or noodles. With a bottle of water my total was almost $10. It looked good and fresh. I took my tray and went directly to a table. The first bite was ok. The second bite was stone cold. COLD! It came off a "steam table", yet upon further inspection, there was no steam. I asked the employee to touch the broccoli to see how completely COLD it was. She wouldn't. I asked for, and got, a full refund. It's pretty bad if you can't serve HOT food without having to microwave it first. Never again. read more

Five stars for what it is: steamer tray Chinese food. Is it great? No. Is it pretty darn good? Yes. It's fast, family run, and you could feed an army with what they give you for $10. I always sate my large appetite and have leftover noodles for breakfast. Very friendly people. My favorite is their spicy chicken, which is not blow-your-head-off-spicy at all. Just good flavors. read more

Great hole in the wall place for quick Chinese food in the outlets. When you walk in it looks like a steam table with minimal items on it but everything is made to order. Portions are good size when ordering and the food is delicious. The family is always super sweet and friendly! read more

The Napa Premium Outlets once had several restaurants- now they're down to three: Subway, Suppertime, and this one. It's a rather bleak dining area. Despite the fact the outlet mall was packed, the tables were mostly empty. The visitor information section no longer has an array of pamphlets&booklets.... but you can get a brochure for Robert Mondavi Winery in Chinese. Hunan China Express has good service.... and that's it. They give free samples, they're a smiling, friendly group. If only their food was as top notch as their service. The owners are incredibly nice. Sweet&Sour Fish- It is neither. Just bland, and with a fishy taste (maybe partially uncooked?) MaPo Tofu- It's labeled as spicy. While Hunan cuisine is famous for being spicier than Sichuan, thanks to vinegar and fermentation, this is spicy in name only. Sad! Fried Rice- Really odd, with a strangely sweet aftertaste. Gross. Though Hunan China Express is a short drive from my place, the food was already lukewarm/cold when I came home. While Hunan is renowned for its spice, Hunan China Express is blandness. There is no taste. read more

I was in the bathroom at the same time as one of the workers. She came out the stall with GLOVES ON washed her hands with the GLOVES ON and proceeded to go back to work with the same gloves . absolutely disgusting read more

Wonderful & fast Chinese food! The owner is super friendly. The food is hot and freshly made. I got a combo plate with Tai Chin Chicken and spicy green beans. Perfect lunch with leftovers! read more

Hunan China Express - Tai Chin Chicken, Spicy Green Beans, Chow Mein lunch combo. - Chinese Near Me - Napa, California

I wasn't expecting this to be great Chinese food like restaurants in the city, but I like Panda Express and expected it to be similar. Not even close and barely edible. The Mongolian beef tasted like it had been sitting for days and might have been reheated several times. The flavor in the sauce was funky and the texture of the beef was unappealing. The chicken in the chow mein looked white and plasticky. The fried rice was basically heavily salted instant rice with bits of bright yellow egg (fake?) and carrots. Low quality food with bad flavor that isn't fresh. Skip it. It won't satisfy a craving for Chinese Food. You're better off buying the frozen Chinese food at Trader Joe's, which is actually pretty good. read more

Good food good service. Like that it's in the outlets. Great chow mein. Love the broccoli beef read more

Pleasantly surprised by the food served at the food court. It's family owned and everything is cooked in house. It's definitely a notch above Panda Express and other ready made Chinese food restaurants. Great service, too. Glad to support this local establishment! read more

Not good. I ordered a "small amount" of rice w a spicy chicken dish. She filled about two thirds of the plate w rice and threw on a spoonful of the chicken. I asked for a bit more of the spicy chicken, and she started picking out chili peppers from a different dish. I explained that I meant wanted more of the original chicken dish, not chili peppers from a different dish, and she came back w, "I think you like the other one better" Yeah, ok. Umm. No. I threw half the rice away, picked at the chicken. This was the dryest chicken I've ever eaten. Maybe she was right. read more

Dropped by here to grab lunch after shopping. I love their salt and pepper shrimp. (Not on the steam table. Need to order it. They do half order as well if it's needed.) Really favorable! read more

Best fast food in Napa. Great chicken, beef, pork and egg rolls. Nice people working there too. Always happy to see you.

Horrible food. Do not eat here, avoid at all cost. Probably a week old food served and not hot at all. I normally like these places but do not waste your money here. read more

Super nice place to go for lunch or dinner when u shop at the mall. The owner r so nice is family style. read more

This was the worst Chinese food ever! Chicken chow main was gummy and dry, the Broccoli beef was like shoe leather. We gave it a try and won't be back. read more

Honestly in my opinion... The worst Chinese food in town that I have ever tasted. I didn't know what msg tastes like before, now I have a pretty good feeling. The noodles tasted like bleach, the broccoli and beef had a string scent of fish to it, garlic chicken just tasted... Weird. Haven't been here in 10 years.... Not sure if I'll go again. I'm going to go grab a burger. read more

Very good Chinese food! I ordered through door dash and the food arrive quickly and hot! It was delicious!

My family has been coming to Hunan China Express for more than 10 years. I cannot say enough good things about the owners and their family. The food is great for families looking for somewhere to eat or even take home! There are COVID protocols in place such as masks and shields in order to protect you and your family as well. I cannot stress enough how amazing they are and how great their good is. read more

One of the best kept secrets for good Chinese food on a budget. The service is excellent.

I've tried the chicken chow mien and beef broccoli on the steam table, and it tasted extremely bland, it had very little flavor except for this dull taste that I had to drown out with soy sauce. Also their portion sizes are much smaller compared to other places for the same price. I wouldn't recommend this place at all. read more

I freaking love this place. The lady that runs it remembers me even though it might be 6 months in between visits. Always beyond friendly! And their spicy/sweet chicken is to die for. read more

Don't waste your money. Everything was either bland or tasted legitimately bad. The soda had a chemical taste. The customer service was average but the food was well below. I really wish I could get my money back. read more

Was shopping at the outlets and needed to get my daughter some food so came by here. Panda Express tastes like fine dining compared to this. Food was far from fresh and tasted like came out of a microwave. read more

Not good.... The chow mien has nothing but noodles and a few peaces of cabbage in it. The food kinda sits out way too long and it's all dried out. Probably won't eat there again. read more

This place is horrible! The food is bland and not very many side choices available. It is over priced.

I think they changed the owner. The new owner and the chef are great! Strongly recommend the combination fried rice (on the menu), black been pork short rib, and the house-made meat spring roll. I am from China, and I just want to say this is the BEST Chinese food in Napa Valley! read more

The food is really horrible, I should read couple of reviews (the good ones are selfies, obviously) before stepping in. I didn't expect much, but it can be a good candidate for the worst chinese joint in Napa or more. No wonder it was literally empty when I stopped by there in the middle of lunch time. Very gross. read more

I was hoping for edible quick Chinese, and unfortunately left totally unsatisfied. What was left (I came at 1:20 for lunch and they were completely out of most of the popular dishes) was heavy, greasy, and generally lacking in flavor. There was nothing light, fresh, or flavorful to choose from. I got what was called "spicy chicken" (dry, over cooked, and generally lacking in flavor) with bland fried rice, and Mongolian beef that was too sweet. I won't be back again, and threw out what I ordered. read more

This place is a very good place to go if you want a taste of China. They started selling Barbecue Pork every Thursday and it's so good! Definitely recommend if you need some quick Chinese food. read more

We are always looking for good Chinese food here in Napa. This is not it. The noodles was just spaghetti with nothing in it. Chow Mein should have veges and maybe chicken or pork in it. The dishes we got were so Salty that I got dizzy and had to lie down. We live near this restaurant and our policy is not to say bad things about Napa business' but this was not worth it. The more we talk about it the more it should have been 1 star. read more

Not the best Chinese food in town but good food and good service for the price!
