Nice guy last night. Young lady needs customer service experience

Food was decent. About standard for any Chinese place you go to. Service was AWFUL. The workers seemed to not know or care about what they were doing. Took us serval tries to get boxes and then a few more to get the check. Atmosphere is not great as they have very loud Spanish music playing and people talking on their phones all around the restaurant. Weirdest dining experience I’ve ever had. Gave two stars because the food was relatively tasty and portions are big.
Strange mix of Colombian, Venezuelan, and Chinese going on here. Nothing wrong with that but I don’t understand the appeal. I’m assuming the positive service reviews are paid bots.

The service in this place is disgusting, they think that one is going to order for free.
Terrible service.

New name Zulianos Chinese restaurant. Remodeled and obviously much nicer place than previously. Food as always delicious and affordable prices
I RECOMMEND TRAINING THE WAITERS BETTER BECAUSE WHEN THEY BROUGHT ME THE DRINK THEY PUT THEIR HANDS DIRECTLY FROM WHERE I DRINK AND IT IS UNPLEASANT THAT THEY SABOTATE THE GLASS WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO DRINK AND THE WAY THEY WERE SERVED WAS NOT SO KIND.
The empanadas were super delicious.

New owners took over and it was a huge disappointment. They now offer Venezuelan and Chinese food. The chicken tasted dry, the chow mein clearly had been reheated, nothing was fresh, everything lacked flavor. Maybe their Venezuelan food is better...

Just no! Got the deluxe lunch special. Everything was off putting. Egg rice was rice coated with brownish seasoning, a few flakes of green onion - very salty and greasy. Beef look better and had nice onion but was also lacking flavor and badly oversalted. Scared to eat the second egg-roll because seemed to have a runny liquid inside. A bit pile of shredded lettuces was the most edible thing on the plate. left 3/4 of food and got out. Crowed was some of the most distressed and left-behind folks you might find in so called Silicon Valley. Help was friendly but a bit zombified. Can't imagine they've had an actual qualified cook for a long while. Worst Chinese I can remember in decades. Not worried about hurting the biz because apparently it's the neighbor hood hangout. Ugg. Just no.

well for starters, it seemed like it was chinese food on the outside and with some reviews--maybe they're bots or fake, idk. But as soon as we stepped in we see venezuelan flags and most things were written in spanish. we gave it a chance, but we suspect the food was cooked in the microwave because some parts of the plate were super hot and others were fridge cold. it tasted like chinese food for people who never had chinese food. it was not bad per se but it just wasn't authentic chinese food. my stomach hurt as well as my boyfriend. a positive thing was their really big portions. i would increase the rating if they didn't advertise as if it were a chinese food place because it's more like chinese inspired cuisine. they only have. orange chicken :((((((
