50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Rodeo

“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!“

“I've recently both eaten in and picked up frozen dumplings and chive pancakes to make at home. My gut tells me they really want to be take out only based on the interior of late. Which I fine, the food is super easy to make at home and really, really good!“

“One of the best Cumin Lab seasoned with veggies, elegant radish and some red peppers!

Accompanied by herbal tea and delicious Thai Tea.

I came in for dine in, food was super fast and delicious, rice was sweet and fresh. Thai tea and herbal tea were also freshly made and served.“

“Wow. Had a great experience. Was staying at a local hotel, did my want “fat” food like fires or bread. I’m not a huge Chinese food eater, a little Panda or whatever, but this was amazing! A light crispy tempura like breading on the honey walnut chicken, the fried rice had great flavor. I can’t wait to come back.“

“I am so glad we changed up and went to Aberdeen Cafe! The flavor of every item was incredible. Absolutely delicious! Service was a bit weak and not many changes inside from the restaurant before but the tasty meal far exceeded our expectation. Two thumbs up. We will definitely return.“

“The vegetarian food was great! Love the potatoes from Szechuan!“

“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!“

“23 years a customer, only great meals! Looking forward to stopping by on my next visit to the area.“

“I went around 1:30 pm on a Monday and the restaurant was busy, busy, busy, but the cashier/waitress was fast, pleasant, and deserved to be tipped well!!! We ordered the lunch specials to go: Hunan Beef (it was tender with the right amount of spice and sweet and veggies) with Chow Mein (plump and juicy) and Sesame Chicken (crispy, tender, flavorful, coating on a few pieces were a little excessive..but it was edible) with Fried Rice (very tasty, wasn't dry, no soy sauce needed). Overall the food was delicious and I need to kick my own butt for not discovering this hidden gem in Point Richmond a long time ago. I think this will be my spot from here on out, and yours, if you give it a try! Side Note: the restaurant name is hard to see and needs to be repainted but it is directly across from the library.“

“Little Hong Kong feels like it has been here forever, and in a good way! A true neighborhood staple on San Pablo Avenue, sitting in its own standalone building with its own parking lot, which makes it easy.

It is family owned and run, and you can feel that in the way the place operates. The service is friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed, and nothing feels overdone.

This is classic Cantonese comfort food. Nothing flashy, just familiar dishes, consistently well made, and come in decently generous portions. It’s the kind of place people return to for years, even decades, because it delivers the same good experience every time.

In a time when prices seem to climb everywhere, it still feels reasonable, which adds to the appeal.

I have been coming here for years, and it continues to hit that simple mark. Good, honest food in a place that feels like part of the neighborhood.“

“I can’t believe I have never written a review for this place. This Chinese restaurant is the spot to order from for family parties. Best know for their fried chicken with spicy salt trays which is so good and crunchy! Also their combination fried rice, people also order their fried fish, bbq chicken, and honey walnut prawns for parties. They’re only takeout and they are always busy. Best to order ahead and allow yourself time to pick up before large parties. I just call to make an order and you pay when you pick up. I wish I could see their prices online or in person for the small and large trays. For a small chicken and small fried rice tray it cost over $100. So large trays are probably about $100. Tastes good and feeds a lot of people. Located in the island pacific plaza, plenty of parking and don’t leave anything valuable in your car.“

“Excellent food in a clean, comfortable, casual setting.y go to place for comfort food close to home. I recommend it to my friends and colleagues.love the Dragon Beef 🥩“

“Visiting from out of state. Went here for Father’s Day celebration . Excellent food and service.“

“Very happy with the pork fried rice both the quality and generous portion. The sweet and sour pork is also really good. I sat in the bar next door and had a beer while I waited for my food. Not that I had to wait long. I will definitely be back if not for the food then to hang out at the bar.“

“Delicious dishes and excellent“

“I love the food here. Anytime I go, there's never a lot of people in there and I usually order ahead and pick it up. The Salt and Pepper fish, Shrimp Chow Mein-Skinny and Honey Walnut prawns are what I usually order.

The area has changed a lot, Longs, the Dive Bar and Wheel works are all closed. Safeway is still there and CD is to the right of it.

Parking: Plenty of parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: Parking is not a problem.“

“Very good. I'm not really a fan of Chinese food but my son asked it was his birthday and the place we usually order from was closed. I have to admit it was really good. I ordered chicken chow mein, fried rice, beef broccoli, sweet sour pork, sesame chicken, and gyoza. Everything was delicious hot fresh flavorful and quick. Keep n mind this was the 4th of July, they were open and the guy who took my order was really nice and attentive. This will be my new spot“

“Self-serve. No hassle. Great food at awesome price. Definitely will try their dim sum dishes next time at an earlier time. They actually use ceramic/actual bowls and dishes and not disposable/single-user like many other places of similar food.
Would love to see maybe next time they will have their own home made chili oil!

Update: visited two more times after initial review a month ago. Seems like the secret is out so it's getting crowded here. If you arrive after 1:30ish they only offer to-go because they close at 2 and it takes 20 minutes to freshly cook the food.

This place is run by a small team with only one person at the counter who is also responsible for 26 other tasks so please be patient and understanding. They probably don't mind losing business from potential customers who are in a hurry or turning away due to long and slow line; this place is probably not for you and try again next time when you are not in a hurry.“

“This is a small restaurant inside a small Asian mall.

The service is friendly and efficient. You can order using a pad or they can take your order, whichever you prefer.

Their menu has a large variety of dumplings and noodles. To me this is Northern Style food. That said I enjoyed everything we had.

They serve some dumplings in wee tin holders. At first I was taken aback, then I realized if can help you save all the juicy goodness should your dumpling break open accidentally.

The flavors were good and there was plenty of soup in their dumplings. You can see they hand make all their dumplings and baos fresh right in front of you.

They also offer dumplings to go and make at home.

All in all I enjoyed myself and will be back.“

“Stopped by Three Star in Vallejo after a recommendation and left seriously impressed. The service was warm and genuinely friendly, the kind that makes you feel welcome right away. I went for the garlic spicy wings, all flats, which is a bold move, and they absolutely delivered. Crispy, flavorful, and that chili oil on the table? Incredible. I even asked if I could buy some. Not for sale, but they surprised me with a little ramekin to take home, which was such a thoughtful touch. We also had the pot stickers and Kung Pao chicken, and both were packed with flavor. Honestly, for a place called Three Star, I'd give it four and a half. Great food, even better people, and I'll definitely be back.“

“I've been here three times now, and I always order pretty much the same things. The food is good and the service is great too. It's a bit different on Saturdays compared to Mondays or Tuesdays - on Saturdays we have to order from the circulating carts ourselves, while usually someone comes around to take our orders. But on Saturdays they're busier, so whether you order separately or pay the bill, you'll need to wait a bit longer“

“Uncle Chungs is the best. My family has been coming here since before I was born. Princess chicken and honey walnut prawns are a must. And if you like crispy noodles try your chow mein Hong Kong style.

Uncle Chungs is family owned and a staple if you are anywhere close.“

“Great food and we will definitely visit again“

“If you want delicious food, at a good price, with great quality, I recommend this restaurant. The owners are very welcoming and friendly. The chef is consistent with all the food orders I have placed and that says a lot since my family and have been their customers for years.“

“Very delicious! I got the chicken and mixed vegetables with steamed rice. Their lunch special came with a corn soup, which was also tasty and a nice way to start the meal. I liked the sauce on the chicken and vegetables a lot. Rice just needed soy sauce. Nice and large portions. Also came with fried wontons and sweet and sour sauce. My husband liked the spicy orange chicken but didn’t find it spicy. We shared the Chinese chicken salad as well. Even their tea was good! Would happily come back.

Parking: Shared lot with laundromat and liquor store, felt safe too.

Kid-friendliness: Noticed a high chair.“

“Muy deliciosa la comida la recomiendo“

“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.“

“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!“

“The owner is super sweet! Did you know they've been here 20 years? I know what their secret is. It's authentically yummy Vietnamese street style food! Everything from banh mi, fresh spring rolls, boba tea, to crepes. This is my favorite quick stop when I'm in the neighborhood.“

“My goto for late night (9am-11:45pm 7 days a week). Always good selection and too much food for me (doggy bags to go a must) in one setting. Also, holidays when everyone else is closed.

Vegetarian options: Always ask the waiter. They know best.

Dietary restrictions: L

Parking: Has a 17 or 18 stall Tesla Superchargers just off the I80 Central Street off-ramp in Richmond/Albany area. During the day, the parking lot gets very crowded, but mornings and evenings are fine.

Kid-friendliness: Ok, but children needs supervision.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ok. Wheelchair ramps outside with handicapped parking in-front. Several times, full with handicapped customers inside.“

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

“I've been coming to Uncle Wong's for 3+ years after taking a job in Oakland. Being born and raised in San Francisco, I've had great Chinese food. Uncle Wong's is the best! May the owner is so attentive and sweet. Turn off your phone and get to Uncle Wong's right now! Note:Take Out only for now.“

“Small Place but the FRIED RICE AND LO MEIN I just ordered was Big Time AWESOME 👍 plus I ordered walking in an hour before close and I was out in ten minutes 👍👌I've been looking for something less expensive and these 2 entrees cost me a nice $33 and the portions are generous. 🔥👌“

“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!“

“SO GOOD, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, Good pricing, Great flavor for everything.“

“A little hole in the wall Chinese food shop.
CASH ONLY
This has been here forever. Like 20+ years at least. I hadn’t been in a long time but I was driving by and thought I’d stop. Same good Chinese food ready to go as I’d remembered. Would definitely go again. I’d rather give my business to them than the panda.“

“My favorite Chinese food in this area ?? me and my family love to get the Hunan Prawns and Veggie Chow Mein. I personally prefer the beef chow mein with extra veggies to have it more balanced and pay a bit extra ? but everything I've had from here is soooo good definitely recommend“

“Amazing restaurant. This is my #1 go-to place for affordable yet very delicious Chinese food. Love the atmosphere and the staff are friendly and generous with the food portions. You'll always leave satisfied. Happy to say I'll always be coming back to eat here!“

“Rickshaw Chinese Restaurant is a take out only There is no option of sitting down. Henceforth it is take out only. That's a plus you won't have to take out a loan to get good healthy food.There are some benches out sde if you can't wait to get home. It is popular with locals and those in the know. Food is displayed to see sells quickly so it always fresh . Never dried out from sitting at a steam table. Some nights a hour before closing at 8pm they maybe sold out of pork fried rice or barbecue pork loin or sweet and sour pork with vegetable The sauce is not too sweet not too sour. It's like Goldilock's porridge at the home of the three bears just right. Portions are big I can barely finish a pork fried rice with a sweet and sour pork entree. $12.50 includes tax.
The Chef takes pride in making good tasting food a simple menu with something for almost everyone. Yes I am a big fan of Chinese style cooking. Sometimes a simple dish made with care is just as good as a fancy complex food at 3 times the price. Highly recommend for the days you are just too tired to cook or just because you want to to enjoy their food. I only like to post positive reviews of well made foods.
This is definitely positively good food enjoy“

“Great food and reall6 great service“

“The food was amazing and the service was excellent. I came here with party of 10 and we were accommodated within 15 minutes. The staff was very friendly and welcoming“

“I’ve been going here since 2007. It’s my go to Chinese fast food. It’s cheap and they are generous with the servings. Depending on my cravings, I can finish 2/3 of the plate but most of the time I can eat the left overs at later meal.I ALWAYS order their Salt and Pepper Pork Ribs, half fried rice and half soy sauce chow mein, with garlic chili oil. The taste was the same since 2007, except, I have not seen green chili on it anymore.When my husband wants some, I’ll order: fried shrimp, beef chow fun, beef broccoli, orange chicken, yunan chicken, and/or veggie mix. It really varies depending on what he wanted that they have when we arrive.To summarize, I will always go back to this place. I travel across California for work. Trying different Chinese fast food in other cities, other than Panda Express, this is my number one place that I will always go back to. I said Chinese fast food, yes? ✌?“

“FAT PANDA IN LAFAYETTE: A GLORIOUS FEAST, A SACRED FOOD DEBT JOURNEY

Step into Fat Panda in Lafayette, California, and you enter a world where food debt is not a burden, but an honor. This isn’t just a place to eat—this is where you indulge in the finest Chinese-American cuisine, with every bite carrying the weight of your inevitable food debt that you wear like a badge of honor. Every penny spent is a glorious investment in the art of flavor, a decision that you will never regret, no matter how many bank alerts follow.

The Beijing Beef—a revelation. The crispy, tender beef tossed in a rich, savory sauce that sings with every bite. Each piece is a perfect balance of sweetness and heat, wrapping you in layers of decadence. You will find yourself sinking deeper into food debt with every bite, yet unable to stop, because how can you ever deny such perfection?

Then there’s the Orange Chicken. The gold standard. So crispy, so tangy, and coated in a sauce that’s the perfect mix of sweet and citrusy. It’s an intoxicating dance of flavors that will have you begging for more, sinking you deeper into the bliss of food debt, but, truly, this is a debt you are happy to accrue. Why fight it when every bite feels like a personal reward for your willingness to surrender to its glory?

And let’s not overlook the Apple Pie Rolls—oh, the Apple Pie Rolls. A glorious, warm bite of crispy, golden-brown perfection with a sweet apple filling that feels like a warm embrace for your soul. Every piece is a journey to a higher plane, where food debt becomes an offering rather than a concern. When you dip them in the accompanying cream sauce, you’ve sealed your fate. You’ll be in debt for days, but it’s worth every moment of it.

And, of course, the Chicken Egg Rolls—crispy, filled to the brim with savory chicken and vegetables, perfectly fried to achieve that delicate crunch. These rolls are the epitome of indulgence, each bite building the mountain of food debt that you’ll happily climb again and again.

In Lafayette, Fat Panda is the ultimate destination, where every dish is a celebration of flavor, and every meal is a pact with food debt. You will surrender your finances, but what you receive in return is unmatched greatness—and a feeling that you have tasted the very essence of culinary glory.“

“It’s a hole in wall chinese spot in da hood. ITS MY GO TO ALWAYs! My favorite Chow mien, chicken wings, pot stickers, fried fish(not served often), BEEF WITH BROCCOLI ?! Listen, these places are best when the food is just made but worth it. I always get enough for 3 days. The prices are great! The customer service is well…you get over it. It’s like in the city in China town.“

“I want to let you know that maricela that works in the front around 9 pm on Saturday is an amazing person and that she deserves to be employee of month she was kind and nice and hard worker always smiling pls let her know that I hope god blesses her and to have an amazing day.thank you“

“Not bad for a quick Chinese food fix reasonably priced. Location has ample parking and has a loyal frequent diners.

Hot and Sour Soup is a good starter, but I prefer a bit more heat. The fried appetizer sampler is something I would skip. The BBQ Pork Chow Fun was full of flavor and the Salty Fish Fried Rice was fragrant. The clay pot was a miss. I was hoping they would actually cook the food in the clay pot for that taste, but it appears the food was cooked and served in a clay pot. The Iron Platter was just what you expect, burning hot served.“

“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. The portions are generous, reasonably priced and flavors are on point no matter what you order.Some of my favorite entrees are honey walnut prawns, salt and pepper pork chops, sweet and sour pork, broccoli or Mongolian beef and ALL of the chicken dishes… lemon, Kung Pao, string bean, or sesame chicken! They are all the absolutely delicious!!!The fried rice and chow mein are always a staple when we order and the beef chow fun is amazing!!! They have a number of soups to choose from as well, my favorite being the war won ton! Delicious!My favorite appetizers are the crab puffs, dumplings and the chicken wings with their homemade sweet and sour sauce! It’s out of this world!!!If you haven’t eaten at the China Barn, you are missing out and must try it!!! You won’t be disappointed!!!

Vegetarian options: Tons of vegetarian dishes or they can make anything to order

Parking: Street parking as well as parking lot behind restaurant/building“

“Fast and convenient restaurant with a simple menu. The prices are reasonable and the portions are large. I usually always get the salt and pepper fish. Parking is limited in front of the store so best to park up hill near the other stores. Take out only.“

“great food and service! the Szechuan chicken is my go to here“

“I couldn’t be happier! The food was absolutely delicious—it totally satisfied my cravings. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I was hoping for. On top of that, delivery was right on time, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re in the mood for great Chinese takeout!“
