    Service was quick and friendly. Ambiance is immediately ruined for me whenever I have to slide over a taped seat in a booth, so there's that. The chair seating across from us looked nice, though. Food was okay, nothing to write home about. I had the lunch special which included soup, orange chicken and chow mien. The chicken was tender and not overcooked, so that was good. Sauce was underwhelming.

    Yesterday, I visited the only chinese restaurant in Winters, California, Ocean Chinese Restaurant and was highly impressed. It is nestled within its communities downtown area where there are plenty of parking. I was presently surprised to hear they are family owned and operated which was clearly evident by their hospitality and outstanding food. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. There were so many options on the menu. Everything we tried was delicious. I live in the greater Sacramento region where there are many chinese restaurants to choose from, but this small family owned restaurant has been the best I've experienced thus far. Everything is made from scratch and I could definitely tell in the taste. We started off with some hot & sour soup where I noticed the soup broth was not watered down like many other restaurants. For appetizers: We got pan-fried potstickers, fried shrimp, and crab & cheese wontons; all hand made and on point! For the main course: We ordered their signature general chicken, sweet & sour pork, orange chicken, honey walnut prawns, moo-shu chicken with 4 chinese pancakes, chow mein and fried rice. The restaurant is small, but we arrived early for dinner and had no trouble finding a seat for my large party. The restaurant started filling up with all the locals who got greeted by the server David. Seemed like Mr. David knew each local customer who paid a visit to the establishment. Showed me that Mr. David invests in his customers by building a good rapport. I am so happy I tried this restaurant. This will be a sure stopping spot moving forward for me every time I travel through Winters on my way to Berryessa and Napa.

    The ONE and ONLY Chinese restaurant in Winters and they most definitely understand the assignment of delivering good ol' Chinese foooood! I had stepped into the small cute town of Winters during November last year and let me tell you, EVERYONE knows EVERYONE, especially if you live there. I was there for about a month and half, and of course when in a new town or city, I go searching for goooood eats!! I asked the locals about good eats in their little town and they recommended, Ocean's right away! Not only because it's their only Chinese restaurant but how good their food is as well as the customer service! Walking in brought me back to my childhood, total HOLE IN THE WALL! Old school vibes for sure, I automatically knew the food was gonna be fire! Went in my first during lunch one afternoon and I dine'd in. I ordered Mongolian beef with steam rice. It was great, it was made fresh and came out piping hot! I also got soup with my lunch plate. My only complaint about my dish was that it had too much scallions and not enough meat. But that wasn't gonna stop me from trying more dishes! Second time in, I ordered curry chicken over rice to go! And OMG soooooo goooood! The best I have had in SOME YEARS! And they even give you soup too! I know a lot of Chinese restaurants don't do soups for to go orders but Ocean's views are different on that aspect and I'm here for it! Egg flower soup and hot and sour soup are always YUM! Customer service is always wonderful! They know their customers and they stay BUSY! Especially during dinner time, Friday nights and I can ONLY imagine what the weekends must look like there! One thing to know when visiting Winters, a lot of eateries are closed on Mondays, and Ocean's is on that list as well! But so worth the wait until Tuesday!

    For being the only Asian food restaurant in winters, this restaurant really marks off all the boxes! I ordered takeout online, at 6pm on a Saturday and the food was ready within 30 minutes. Coming into the restaurant, the employees were extremely nice and had the food ready to go. I was in and out of the restaurant in two minutes, which is great for a pickup order! I did not eat inside the restaurant but for those who may want to, there is tons of seating, not too many people inside, quiet vibes within the establishment with just the sound of cooking and table conversations, and tons of available parking outside. The food itself was great, very fresh and not heavy on the stomach. This whole plate was super affordable and came with a cup of soup, a single egg roll, fried wontons, and then everything in the plate which was more than enough to feed two people or have leftovers. It would come here over driving to another location in Vacaville any day, and definitely beats Panda Express. I will be happy to continue supporting this local winters business into the future, and recommend for everyone to come try this out yourselves!

    Are they still open?

Tasty Every Hour is a great option when you're traveling and want an easy dinner at the hotel. We'd order again next time we're in Vacaville.

Today, when I first called just before 6:30pm, no one answered (also message said they are closed on Wednesdays due to staffing issues), so I hung up. As I was trying to look up their business hours, they called me back and I was able to place my order. I ordered: - General Tao's Chicken - Mongolian Beef - Yuxiang Eggplant Their food is pretty consistent and pretty authentic for Chinese food in Solano County. The region where their cooking is from (Chongquin) is known for spicy food, so if you are into spicy food, this is your place. If you do not like spicy food, they have plenty of non-spicy options. They have a rewards program, so don't forget to punch in your phone number on the machine in front of the cash register when you pay.

    This review is mostly about about service, or the lack of it. We have been here a handful of times…read morewith a group of 10 to 15, hoping each time that the level of service would improve. Here is what's going on. This latest visit was serviced by Zoran, but previous visits have suffered the same problems. An inordinate amount of time is required to provide everyone with a drink, even though many of our group order only water. The order taking is somewhat chaotic, although it appears that the server is making relevant notes about who orders what and who is together. Then the waiting begins. A few of the smaller items (soup, salad) emerge from the kitchen in maybe 30 minutes, the entrees don't start appearing before we have been seated for more than an hour, often longer. And this was a Wednesday afternoon--we arrived before 5:00 pm--when the restaurant was not near full and we had made a reservation the previous day. The food is generally good, if rather lightly seasoned. But I can recall no inquiries from the server about beverage refills; our requests for this require, again, an inordinate amount of time to fulfill. More than once our server made the trip from the kitchen to our table carrying only a single item, then back again, apparently, for another item that sometimes doesn't appear. When it's obvious that everyone is virtually finished with their food, the only way for us to receive our bills was to flag sown our server who finally appears with several slips of paper and absolutely no idea of who has ordered what, in spite of apparently making notes during the ordering process and delivering the majority of the dishes to our table himself. We finally all received our bills, but about half of our group failed to receive the traditional fortune cookie at all. Here's the thing: this pattern over several visits of the lack of server attention and skill is should be directly laid at the feet of management. Every server has to start somewhere, but the success and future of the restaurant largely depends on the work of the servers; poor service taints an otherwise good experience, even if the food is perfect. Not to mention the fact that servers are the sales people for potential extra revenue, e.g., upscale beverages, deserts, etc. We are reconsidering whether to return here as a group in the future, but over two hours for a meal seems excessive.
