This place can be a hit or miss. We typically get The salt pepper pork, HK style chow mein, calamari, mongolian beef, walnut shrimp, and a veggie. Consistently the walnut shrimp was good. The HK chow mein typically tastes better when it's not late, some times it can taste old. The mongolian beef was the biggest disappointment, we've normally felt like we get very little beef with the dish. Personally the calamari isn't that great, too much breading for very little meat, when it's fresh it's better.

Just recently found this place and was not disappointed. Food was awesome and reasonable priced. Large portions too!!! Have gone back a few times already. Can't believe we have had this place near by for all these years and just tried it now. Will keep going back!!!

1st time-tried broccoli beef lunch special to go. They don't offer the soup to go however it was cold and raining so I asked the gentleman taking my order if I could have it while I waited for my order and he was more than accommodating. Made the experience that much better! Will definitely go back!

Ripping off your customers is bad business! A few pieces of dry fried ribs for $17 in a huge container is shameful!

We really do like this place but it is so cold inside and the plates are cold, too. Great Szechuan chicken and good basics. Also still have generous lunch plates for a reasonable price. Bring a jacket. Brrrr

I'd hate to write a bad review since there's only a few Chinese restaurants and we want to support small businesses in the area. But I have to warn people to avoid ordering Mongolian Beef to go because all we got was a box of Mongolian onions!!! For nearly $20 bucks there should be more than 5 lil pieces of beef that was overwhelmed with onions! If the ingredients are too expensive then take it off the menu, better that than to deliver a bad product.

It's OK. The garlic chicken was more like garlic water chestnut. Chow mein was OK. Fried rice was OK. Got chicken in all of it. Definitely skimped on the chicken, especially for the price. Usually you can't go wrong with chicken chow mein, but it was so bland, like they forgot the seasoning or sauce? It was just plain noodles and penny-sized cuts of protein. Pretty boring. Sorry, don't mean to be harsh, but pretty disappointed we spent so much for such a boring meal.

The food is very good and the waitresses are efficient and friendly. The young man that acts as host seems uninterested and bored, hence 4, not 5, stars.

FOUND A DIRTY HUMAN NAIL IN MY FRIED RICE! I would put zero stars if I could. Such a huge health hazard biting into that especially as dirty as it was. Didn't get a photo of it because I was in shock but regret that so people can see how disgusting it was. Called them and the guy on the phone was super rude and just said "ok" to when I told him about it and put the phone down and wouldn't answer me until I called again and got a woman. Would not recommend!

It was Chinese comfort food for sure. There is a soup with fried wontons in an egg drop soup. Wow, that's different. Beef chow fun had an excellent chew.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at China House restaurant and I must say, it was an incredible experience that exceeded my expectations.The moment we stepped foot into the restaurant, we were greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring our dining experience was enjoyable from start to finish.The food at China House was simply outstanding. Every dish was bursting with flavor and it was evident that each item was meticulously prepared using fresh ingredients. The pot stickers, in particular, tasted like they were made with love and care - truly homemade perfection.One of the highlights of our dining experience was the innovative spinning middle design table. As a family of 6, this feature made it incredibly convenient for us to share and sample a variety of dishes. We were able to order a plethora of items, indulging in the vast array of flavors that China House had to offer.

I’ve dined in before and food was good. This take out food was bland, no seasoning on fried ribs, broccoli and beef was good, chicken chow mein ok. However I spent $48 got one pack soy sauce, one fortune cookie. This was meal to feed 3.
