16 Best Chinese Restaurants in Pleasanton

“Showed up on a Sunday around lunchtime with the intent to dine in, but unfortunately (for us), the place was completely packed! We wanted a seat for five, but the place was clearly designed for tables of two and four: so probably would’ve needed to wait a while before we were seated.

We ended up ordering quite a few things: beef noodle soup, pork with dry noodle, lamb noodle soup, pig ears, Liang pi, and the rou jia mou. The food probably took about 30 minutes to cook (which felt quite long but likely was due to the dine-in situation being full). We took it home to eat (15 minute drive) and I’d say that the texture of the food (noodles, bread) were the highlights here - whereas the broth, flavors were just alright. The pig ears were also very good, but almost a little sweet with a good amount of chili oil. I will say, I appreciate the packaging here: always a plus when the noodles are separated from the broth and it doesn’t get soggy from the drive.

Overall, the food was good enough for a fix, but not something I’d go out of my way to get.“

“Really good food great service great prices“

“My wife and I have been dining at Gold Chopsticks for years and we love it. They have an extensive menu and I love trying all the amazing dishes. You could easily get hooked on their Pot Stickers with their homemade sauce, Wor Won Ton Soup, Sweet & Sour Prawns, Combination Fried Rice, Broccoli Beef, etc. And I really don't know how anybody can beat their Black Pepper Beef Sizzling Platter, it is awesome on so many levels!!!“

“I went here all the time when I was a kid in the early to mid 2000s

Every time we walked in the owner would greet us & ask us if we wanted Pot Stickers. He always remembered us

Now in my late 20s, me & a few childhood friends decided to drop by while we were back in the area for a bit

The food is sooooo good, just like it was all those years ago. The employees are super nice & made sure to keep checking on us. Our drinks always stayed full as well.“

“服務親切，充滿濃濃的台灣味，而且食物好好吃！推！“

“I and my husband took our sons, grandson, sister and brother-in-law to dinner, waiters were pleasant and helpful and the food just so delicious. A member in our group is a retired chef and said it was the best Chinese dinner he had had for a long time. Just clean Chinese cooking done the way it should be, We all agreed. Thank you for making the end of 2023 a delightful experience.“

“Efficient and delicious! Has so many Northern Chinese dishes you normally don’t see at hot deli bars.

Wide selection of frozen foods, frozen and refrigerated ingredients like bean curd and thinly sliced lamb for hot pot or stir fry.

I love that they use short grain rice in the lunch plates. I tried the braised pork belly, braised fried tofu, and spicy fried chicken with Szechuan chilis. Will try more veggie dishes next time!“

“Whenever we miss hometown and crave for authentic rice noodles, this is the place to go. Love the small pot rice noodle. It even beat some of the local restaurant in Dali, Yunnan. Kids love the crossing bridge rice noodle and they usually finishes all the soup.“

“WOW! Hunan Chef restaurant is remarkable!
I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the wonderful experience I had at this restaurant recently. We were incredibly impressed by the delicious food and the exceptional cleanliness of the establishment. The customer service was very attentive, and I found the prices to be more than fair. The convenient location in the plaza across from Safeway and the ample parking are also great advantages.

It's clear that the restaurant is operating at a very high standard, and it truly shows. YUM I highly recommend this restaurant 10+ stars!“

“Great food, Good serving size“

“Just had a nice time with friends and family at this P.F. Chang's. One person even brought his small dog and was ok. We shared the ribs, green beans, rice and Korean chicken as well as the chicken lettuce wraps. It was a little hot yo be outside but we were fine. Service was good“

“Their recent all you can eat with price of $29.99 is unbeatable deal! As a born and raised in Sichuan Chinese, I enjoyed their very authentic spicy pot very very much! There are many other flavors to choose from and so many varieties of sauces to add to your taste bud! Service is excellent! Food is fresh. I plan to go there at least once a month to satisfy my gravy craving for very authentic Chinese hot pot. On top of that, they also have authentic Sichuan dishes to enjoy!“

“Urban Momo Pleasanton is a paradise for lovers of Nepali and Indian cuisine! From Schezwan chicken and fried rice to butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, paneer butter masala, momo, and more, every bite bursts with flavor. The staff are warm and welcoming, and the food is consistently delicious. Definitely a place to satisfy all your cravings!“

“Basic Chinese fast food.
Generally fairly good. They tend to run out of dishes but that's the price of freshly cooked so that the stir fry chicken is tender not rough.
Usually start with half veggies, half chow mein. This time got teriyaki chicken and the mushroom chicken.
Pretty good. Been here once a while for 10 years. Parking is easy. Shopping in area convenient.
Prices are up
8/8/25, bowl $9.10, plate $10.70“

“I came to write a review just about the wonton noodle soup. I didn't have much of the bbq since I was so obsessed with the noodle soup but I'm sure it was delicious since my fiancé cleaned the plate. Man...has it been a while since I've had a good wonton noodle soup! The broth was light but flavorful and the wontons were plump and juicy - just look at the size of the shrimp in that thing! There was a place in Sunset that had the best wonton noodles but shut down after the pandemic... glad we stumbled upon this place!!

The restaurant doesn't appear to be seating customers anymore so you take your food on a tray and sit in the food court.“
