“I stopped by during a transfer at Martinez Station. I was impressed by the cleanliness of the restaurant and the friendly service. The BBQ pork fried noodles and wonton soup were also delicious, and I'll definitely visit again if I have the chance.“

“Truly authentic Chinese flavors!!’ They even have my favorite charred tastes I love in their chow mein. EVERYTHING was delightful. The service was as well. Very helpful and friendly staff. This the real deal yall. We had veggie chow mein, sesame chicken, eggplant chicken shrimp special, garlic boi choy, and salt and pepper fish. All delightful. Our new favorite spot!!!!!“

“We got eggplant in garlic sauce and veggie egg foo young. It was tasty and the portions were big. A little more sauce on the eggplant dish would have been nice, but we liked all the mushrooms and crunchy veggies in the dish. Will go here again for takeout.“

“I am PURELY doing this review because of ONE worker! I’m so upset I didn’t get her name, but she was working the food line; first off, she was super patient with me being hard of hearing in a noisy environment. Although I had to wait for my food, she double checked everything, made sure I heard her and was clearly going above and beyond compared to the others (all hard working, but there was something different about her with ethic). I hope to see her again to let her know how much a small gesture made my week.“

“Best Chinese food in Contra Costa County. Totally Authentic Sezchuan style. A must try for anyone who loves great flavors.“

“Lanzhou is an ancient, desert city on the old Silk Road so its culinary heritage is as wide as it is deep. While I’ve not been there I would like to think the food here is pretty authentic Gansu province cuisine. It’s always a good sign when a restaurant is popular, but it’s a better sign when an Asian restaurant is full of Asian patrons. Everything we had here was good. The chili crunch oil condiment (which is mild and has smoky, earthy flavor) made everything even better. Guaranteed I’m going back.“

“Stopped by while driving through the area and wasn't familiar with the style of Chinese food or the terminology of the menu, but the woman at the counter explained which menu item was chow mein. Placed my customized order for chicken chow mein (they were out of pork) and used their restroom. I was delighted with the restroom because so many businesses are closing them to the public these days. Came out of the restroom and they were still cooking my dish! They apparently make most of their dishes to order instead of premaking the dishes and keeping them warm. When I got out to my car, the chow mein was so hot I burned my mouth a little bit! I've never had Chinese that fresh in my life! The seasoning was very good and not at all like what I am used to. If you are looking for traditional, boring Chinese food, you don't want to come here. However, if you are interested in fresh Chinese food that's doing it's own thing, give this place a try! The only regret I have is that the portions aren't bigger, because I could have eaten a lot more it was so good!“

“Excellent! Tonight was one of the best meals we’ve had here and are so happy to be able to continue to support the restaurant. So thank you for some of the most fresh best tasting Chinese food in Walnut Creek!“

“My daughter and I found this little gem while staying in Concord. We now try to get to Concord early every time we come so we can stop here. The food is amazing. The staff is friendly enough, but they have things to do so they wont be hovering. But, if you need something, its easy to get someone's attention. Each seat has a little wooden decoration with a QR code on it. You scan it and order from your phone. The food arrives quickly. Its hot and delicious! I highly recommend this place.“

“Excellent house-made noodles!“

“Free parking, clean place, safe neighborhood. The food was ok. Portions were not really big, but adequate. My issue was with the chili peppers in the kung Pao chicken. As the picture shows, there was way too many - and this is not chewable, you need to set them aside. There were so many chili peppers , it occupied 1/3 of the tiny individual serving plate.“

“Very homie type of comfort food. Food always tastes great have been going here for years ! Salt and pepper chicken is my go to favorite. Small interior so best for takeout. The cooks are great, host is always nice. Be warned it can get crazy busy on weekends especially evenings, its better to order in person and just grocery shop nearby while you wait.“

“My son recommended this place, and I’m sorry I waited so long! We ordered so much food they had to move us from a 2-top to a 4-top just to accommodate! We took a lot of leftovers, but there’s not one dish I would have removed from our order. Everything was felt, you could taste the various flavors of dumplings, the noodles were amazing and not “too saucy”, you could really taste the noodle. I HIGHLY recommend- and, the prices are incredible.“

“Been going here for 20 years. Never a bad meal!“

“Sept 21, 2025 - PM - The place is clean, cozy, makes you feel like home. Nice staff. Plenty free parking, safe neighborhood. Food was good with the exception of the onions. I actually like onions but the taste was too strong ( a first in my life) due to the cut in big chunks and not being cooked ( it felt as raw as in a salad) - I had 3 dishes, the bad one was the cashew chicken. At home I still had the taste of onions and some of it remained even after I brushed…Except the onions, the food was great.“

“Most slept on noodle soups in Berkeley, not sure how this spot hasn’t blown up.. and arguably better than most of the other hype noodle spots around town. But hey, there’s a reason this spot has been around for decades.

I recommend the beef noodle soup, medium spice ⛽️“

“My dad was craving shrimp fried rice so I was searching in a place in Vallejo for take out and thought I’d try 88 baobao’s. I called in and it was easy to place an order. I ordered shrimp fried rice, sauteed green beans, popcorn chicken, and a side of cucumbers. My order was ready in 10-15 mins for pick up. Service was quick. This was my first time ordering from this location, I didn’t even order any baos sio mai or dumplings but I tried them at other locations. They have indoor seating and the food has huge portions to serve lots of people and last for multiple meals. Located in the Gateway Plaza across from Vallejo Costco, so there’s plenty of parking. Located next to Ulta and quickly.“

“The name is 3 star ⭐️ but it’s definitely a 5 star especially when it comes to the food , very fresh made with care. Service and staff are nice and attentive, and the restaurant is very clean. To start I have the hot tea ,then garlic chicken, I prefer it crispy crunchy, or fried hard, chicken and shrimp noodle, and my fav green spicy green bean.“

“We really enjoyed the variety of the food on the menu! The ambiance was very nice and clean, not too noisy!
We had the Pork Xiao Long Bao (so good as everyone says) Sweet and Sour Cucumber, Pan Fried Chive Dumplings, Onion Pancake, Pan Fried Vegetable Pot Stickers and the Romaine Lettuce Salad with Sesame dressing.
All dishes were delicious and the prices were very reasonable!“

“We’ve been to Szechuan restaurant several times, both dine in and take out. The food is always great and the staff is very friendly. Last night’s meal was particularly good. We ordered a couple of new dishes which were yesterday‘s specials. One had eggplant and chicken and the other was some fish dish. We had it as take out for a dozen guests at home. All of our guests were complimenting the food and asking where we got it from. Thank you Szechwan Restaurant.“

“Wonderful restaurant. Tried the lunch special on our way to Santa Cruz.

As soon as they served the soup I could tell this place was a cut above. I'm not a fan of hot and sour soup, but this was the best I've ever had. The chicken with broccoli and cashews should be considered a must order. The egg roll was perfect.
Lovely tranquil ambience on the outdoor patio with the giant trees lining the back.“

“Nice atmosphere but the best part is the food. Great selection with some hard to find items. They definitely know how to spice the food - can’t be beat“

“Iv dined here since the early 1990's and always have a pleasant experience. It's changed owners within their family and the interior has been updated but the core still stays the same. Attentive staff, good food, and always bustling!“

“Spectacular food. I mean Spectacular. And I love the small restaurant ambiance of simplicity on Clayton Rd. Authentic and creative food, with modern American style too. If you're looking for great Chinese food and a great menu too choose from this is the place!!“

“Excellent service and the food was delicious.“

“My family and I LOVE THEM!! The food is SMACKIN not slappin!! The portion sizes are HUGE, the prices are PHENOMENAL and their customer service is EXCEPTIONAL!!
We have been faithful customers for over ten years now and we will forever support these Amazing Hardworking folks!!
THE BEST IN VALLEJO OFF TOP!!“

“Great Wall Restaurant serves fresh, flavorful Chinese food with generous portions. The sweet and sour chicken was crispy and tangy, while the broccoli beef was tender and savory. Friendly service and a cozy atmosphere made for a great dining experience. Highly recommend!“

“First time. Great find! The food was delicious and well prepared. Didn't have that "all day in the steam tray" look and feel that now seems standard at other similar places. Vegies looked and tasted like they were made from fresh. The meats were tender and generous. Sauces light and not overly sweet or heavy. Will be our new go-to Chinese takeout!“

“Nice little hole in the wall restaurant!
Today I had the Mongolian beef... I actually tasted the wok hei. Soft velveted cuts of meat wok fried at high heat for a minute. It tasted like it was barbecued for an hour but I only have a 30 minute lunch and I got it in 5 minutes after I ordered. It is a must try, everything i have ever ordered was great and I have been here 3 times!

Thank you chef!“

“Solid dim sum up in walnut creek area

Lots of asians here so must be a good sign haha

It has solid cheung fun and har gao which are the staples

Service was not bad for dim sum

Parking may be hard but down the lot frees up a bit“

“Been going here since early high school and they still hit! Fresh and great portion sizes! This I got a 3 item plate and was able to split it for me, my mom and nephew! Plus a medium order of the fried battered fish!! Very good chowmein and rice too! All the ladies are nice!“

“A Taste of Peru That Feels Like Home 🇵🇪✨ From the very first bite, this restaurant transports you straight to the heart of Peru. The flavors are bold, authentic, and crafted with love by Peruvian hands that know how to honor tradition. Start with the ceviche, fresh, zesty, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat. Then the iconic lomo saltado, where juicy strips of beef are sautéed to perfection with onions, tomatoes, and that unmistakable touch of soy sauce and spices. The arroz chaufa is a savory fusion masterpiece, while the tallarines saltado brings a mouthwatering twist on stir-fry pasta that’s packed with flavor. Don’t miss the anticuchos, tender skewers of marinated beef heart that melt in your mouth, or the golden picarones, a sweet finish made with squash and sweet potato, drizzled in chancaca syrup. Pure Peruvian joy! To wash it all down, sip on a cold Inka Kola, a tangy glass of maracuyá (passion fruit) juice, or the deep, spiced flavors of chicha morada. Each drink is a memory, a story, a sip of home. And for a truly special treat, they’re bringing out the Pachamanca (tres sabores) this Father’s Day, a traditional Andean feast slow-cooked underground with marinated meats, herbs, and native potatoes. It’s more than a meal, it’s a celebration of culture, family, and roots. You will also appreciate the warm, attentive service from the owners and chefs. Whether you’re Peruvian or just discovering its rich culinary heritage, this place will have you coming back for more. ¡Buen provecho!“

“Always such good food with so many choices. Always very friendly staff as well. Love eating here“

“Ordered from there tonight with DoorDash General Taos chicken 🐔. Thought all meals came with white rice , for 25 bucks I got a small plate of chicken an few stalks of broccoli. It was good just not for what I paid for ,“

“We drove up from Oakland and found this place on the way to WinCo. We will definitely be back if we can!

I disagree with Latoya Robbins' review, my husband and I thought the food was pretty tasty. It was a good selection of food. Loved the steamed fish, pork bao, fried prawns and egg drop soup. I was delighted they had some dimsum in steam baskets. Many Asian buffets kinda taste like this anyway. The only small compliant is that there was a tad overuse of oil in some of the dishes.

To be honest, we were kind of shocked at the price of $14.99 per person for lunch on a Saturday. That's the price of 1 burrito from a food truck 30 mins away in Oakland, much less a all-you-can-eat buffet.

The staff were nice and topped up waters fast. Golden Corral staff were never this attentive. The place was decently clean and neat, and of course, this isn't a 5 star buffet at the Wynn, and we've been to shadier and more crowded places with less choice + paid more, so we're happy with this find. 5 stars, great value for money.“

“This is my favorite restaurant of all time. The best service and best food of all time.

I had never come here until I met my wife who is Chinese and she took me here. The Li Wan Style congee is excellent and Hong Kong milk tea is sooooo good. Must also try the dough stick rice noodle roll!!!“

“The taste is very good, I will go there again next time.“

“good speedy service, large menu to choose from and delicious food“

“The chow mein and fried rice is good, i really liked the fried rice but it also might be because im pregnant lol we also ordered the sweet and sour chicken, i honestly dont recommend. The chicken was mushy and the sauce was to sweet. Couldnt finish that dish.

Other then that, they are pretty good. As most restaurants, obviously youll get the pos and the neg but i also think it depends on the day and time you go . Would i order from here again? Yes“

“Muy deliciosa la comida la recomiendo“

“Best Chinese Food in Vallejo and surrounding area!!!! Food is always made to order very quickly using only the freshest meat and vegetables and sauces prepared daily.

“I originally ordered Mountain Mike's pizza next-door but when I got there they said that they never got my order. The place was empty, they were kind of rude and didn't offer to make my order in a hurry or even help me in anyway. I just left and went to panda express who were awesome! The food was also killer!“

“I wish I could give it 5 stars like I would have in the past, at least the food anyways but the male cousin and his family always had decent customer service but the female cousin was rude, impatient & our order was incorrect by 2 items. It just wasn't the same sadly, I've been going there for over 20 years off & on even as I moved out of state it was always a must stop, I may not visit anymore unless I see the former familiar face. Food wasn't bad though.“

“I love this place! And been going here for more than 5 yrs.

Always good reliable food and service. Quick turnaround from order to table delivery. Even to go food is hot, fresh and fast! It’s a tad pricey, but worth it. Good Chinese food is not cheap! I highly recommend this restaurant to all my friends.“

“The best Panda Express I've tasted. I don't know if I caught them on the right day or what. It was my first visit there. But I plan on going back. Everything was flavorful. I like the green beans n chicken. But generally the green beans are undercooked. These were decent, very decent. I recommend this particular Panda Express.“
