My favorite neighborhood Chinese. Very generous portions, lovely staff, good price, better for takeout than dine in. They only have a few tables inside. I have ordered basically everything from their menu to feed large family gatherings.. . Everyone was happy every time.

This used to be my best choice but the quality has diminished over the last few years. Lots of my favorite choices just aren’t made the same and/or taste as good as they used to. It was so good for a long time, that I kept ordering from here for the last couple years and it’s just not like it used to be and unfortunately I won’t go back anymore. The staff and service are fine and the food is a little below average

Really tasty dishes. Possibly the best Chinese food I’ve ever had. Generous portion and quick service. Would definitely go back.

Is it the most ‘authentic’ Chinese food you can get? No. But if you’re looking for extremely tasty American Chinese food with speedy service China taste fits the bill. It’s our go-to for dinner after a terrible day of work or after a long flight home.

They need to update the website. The item I ordered (PuPu Platter for 1) was $4 more than listed on the site; the rice was $1 more. Aside from that, the food tasted like it had been lying around all day – dry and tasteless. The teriyaki beef stick wasn’t even edible; tasted off, like the meat had started to spoil before being cooked. Pork was dried out and stuck together. Not an experience I want to repeat.

It’s not loud. Very quiet and relaxing.
