No liquor but offers soda and Thai tea. Fairly generous portions. We ordered the pork eggrolls which came with 3 egg rolls. Pretty good. The dumplings are fried and had 4 pieces. I thought those were OK. Not my favorite menu item. Everything else we ordered was pretty flavorful. We had the Thai fried rice with chicken, pad c ew with beef, and then stirfry garlic chicken. Highly recommend for casual but delicious Thai food.

We ordered the Pad Thai with chicken, spice level 2 (of 5), also ordered Pad Woon Sen with chicken, spice level 3, as well as the chicken dumplings. Decent size portions for the price, the Pad Woon Sen was not very spicy at all for a 3, which is okay, it was the best tasting item we ordered, but nothing worth bragging about. I doubt we will order from here again tbh. The chicken pad thai was EXTREMELY dry, and very spicy for a level 2! The lime was completely dried out from being packaged in the same container as the hot food, but we managed to squeeze a few drops out. Even after adding soy sauce and some additional sauce we had in the fridge here at the house, nothing was able to make it edible and we didn't finish that dish at all. The dumplings were pretty dry as well, not too flavorful, the dumpling sauce was good, but I've yet to taste one that isn't. Even the dumpling sauce couldn't spruce up the pad thai, and that says a lot! Giving 3 stars because there wasn't anything wrong with it per se, it was edible, our orders were correct, portion sizes were decent, price was decent, but food was just bland and looked a lot better than it tasted.

My food was room temperature and very bitter. I think the chili oil was rancid. I asked the waitress if this is normally a bitter dish, she shrugged. I asked if they could remake the dish given how fast it came out and how bitter it was, I was told that anything ordered at level 5 is as is and there are no exceptions. I was sick for the rest of the night into the following day with bitter heartburn and gastrointestinal distress. I eat level 5 food daily, I love spicy food. This is not a spice tolerance problem. The service was bad. The food was bad. For a Saturday night diner rush with an empty dining room that should have been my first clue. I will not be going back.

We absolutely loved the deep-fried corn--it was crispy, and well made, and one of our favorite dishes. My husband also really enjoyed the tea leaf salad. The beef stew with rice was delicious and reminded us of Thai Hung Lay curry. The flavors were comforting, although the beef could have been a little more tender. The restaurant has a laid-back atmosphere. You order at the counter, choose your own seat, and the staff brings your drinks and food to the table. The service was friendly and efficient. My only suggestion would be to expand the drink selection, as most of the options are canned or bottled beverages.

Good, solid, moderately priced, Chinese food…read more My wife and I ordered pork fried rice, steamed pork dumplings, egg rolls, crab rangoon, and hot and sour soup--pretty standard, fast food Chinese fare. Following are my comments on each. The pork fried rice was fine. Rice was properly cooked, neither mushy or hard. Oily, but not greasy. Decent flavor, without being overly salty. Fair amount of vegetables and meat. Not great, but certainly good. Hot and sour soup was both hot and sour. Slightly thinner texture than is commonly served in this part of the world. Not a bad thing, as it means a little less corn starch. Less tofu and meat bits than I normally see, but still adequate. Only thing off putting was a slight, "odd" taste. Didn't seem spoiled, just odd. Can't place the flavor, but it's the first time I've experienced it in hot and sour soup. Egg rolls were excellent. Steaming on the inside and crisp on the outside. Quite large, well seasoned, and obviously hand made. These were the high point of the meal. Steamed pork dumplings were good. Wrappers nicely steamed and not too thick. The filling was rather strange. It reminded me much more of a meatball in an Italian restaurant, than the filling of a Chinese dumpling. Not bad, just not what I expected. The crab rangoon was the least tasty item. More accurately, it would have been described as "Cream cheese wrapped in a thick tortilla and deep fried". Absolutely no trace of anything crablike in the mix Decor was basic, fast food Chinese, complete with the obligatory fish tank. Service was fast and friendly. Prices right in line with the area. Overall, China Chef is solid, middle of the pack Chinese restaurant. Not bad, but not great.
