“Good food. Best in Simi Valley!“

“We always loved Szechuan Garden. When John who is always the awesome guy who takes care of us , dining is always an awesome experience . he is so kind and knows what we need. . My kids have been going here even when my youngest was a baby. JOhn always asks how he is doing up to now and that baby is 21 yrs old now. The food is always amazing. Will always love Szechuan Garden. Thanks John you are wonderful👍“

“Really great low priced high quality Chinese food! The place is a little rundown, but that doesn’t matter. The food is good and it is not very expensive and the service is very fast and very kind.

I highly recommend this as the only place to go for a nice sitdown Chinese meal, especially on Christmas Day.

otherwise, if you just want cheap fast, Chinese go to Panda Bowl, but just be aware of that Panda Bowl no longer serves sweet-and-sour chicken, but Imperial does.“

“I came here in the midafternoon. It was completely empty.

The server, was helpful. I chose, instead of getting the all you can eat option, I ordered ala cart.

I got the chicken with mixed veggies, fried rice, hot and sour soup and an iced tea.

The soup came out first. It was really, really good hot and sour. The flavors were balanced and you could tell that someone put care into the preparation. Note that they only serve a two-person portion, so I had to take some home.

The the fried rice and the chicken/veggies came. Also really tasty. The chicken was cooked perfectly.

I appreciate small, family run places. The entire meal just hit the spot. I'll definitely be back.“

“This place is family owned, it seems and it's my favorite. I will die for these noodles. I found it years ago when I was living in Simi Valley and I have since moved out of Simi and I am ALWAYS willing to make the drive to get these noodles. They give you more than enough food and the price point is incredibly reasonable. I tell everyone I know about this place and I love it.“

“Very clean dinning area but food needed a little more seasoning

Parking: It's inside the plaza so parking can be hard to find when other businesses in plaza are busy too

Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs available and are inviting to kids

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp into entrance and disabled ♿ parking in the lot close to entrance“

“The portions are astounding and the employees are always helpful and friendly. The Japanese Chicken and Potato chicken are my favorites! I highly recommend this place to get a lot of bang for your buck. A staple and gem of Simi Valley for sure!“

“(NOT a sponsored post!!!)

This Panda Express location in Simi Valley has completely ruined all other Panda locations for me—in the best way possible! Their orange chicken is consistently perfect crispy, flavorful, and just the right balance of sweet and tangy.

I don’t know what kind of magic their kitchen team is working with, but they nail it every single time. I travel for work and all the pandas in other cities and even other states, end up leaving me disappointed because no other location gets it quite like this one.

Everywhere else, it’s either soggy or bland, but not here!!! This place has officially spoiled me! If you’re an orange chicken lover, this is the gold standard.

Let me know if you want to add anything about the staff or service too!“

“FRIDAY FOOD REVIEW...GOLDEN PANDA BUFFET (again)...5/30/25! We hadn't been to the Golden Panda Buffet, located at 1825 Madera Rd, in Simi Valley, in several years, so it was time to go back! They have a huge selection of Japanese, Chinese, and Mongolian food for your dining pleasure, plus there are also different soups, salads, fruits, and of course desserts and ice creams! We both tried a variety of it all, and for a buffet, it's really good!! It's definitely a locals favorite...get there early!!“

“The people are so nice and they dont take more 10 mins to have my order ready! The food is delicious ❤️“

“I miss this place so much I had to move out of state, me and Mom used to hit that place at least twice a week and the owner is just awesome. We’ve been gone almost a year now… and I still think about it, nobody has compared can’t find a place like it
I hope they’re all doing well…“

“Places like Dong Ting Spring are hard to come by these days, especially in Ventura County. When you walk in, it feels like you're in your grandma's house being served a comforting home cooked meal. Every time time we come here, we always see elderly Asian people with their families, which I think is a strong indicator of how authentic Dong Ting's food is. We typically order the stinky tofu with braised intestine, braised pork, beef rolls, always with a side of rice. I really love it here and I will keep speaking their high praise. Haters be gone, Hunan forever!“

“The cold noodles were sooooo good, especially with all the hot & spicy dishes we got. $100 after tip, really reasonable with all the dishes & large portions. Rice not pictured. Had plenty to take home. Wish we lived closer! I wish there were more veggie dishes, stir fried garlic bok choy or snow pea leaves would be great, but everything was tasty.“

“Who doesn’t love dumplings?? Sooo good!“

“I love this place. It is my 1st time. I told Linda I have a doctor appointment, so please fast. She gave me everything do fast. Food was good. I finished everything on my dish. Love it. Will come again to try other dishes. :) <3

High light: black tea and chips are free of charge.“

“Unique menue options; chef puts his touch on the dishes; not your typical Chinese food. Recommend the Filet with Asparagus and the Fried Rice. Also the Argentine Pot Stickers!“

“We met with friends at this place for dinner. my friend recommended this restaurant. Well, it was a winning. the staff were so friendly and we had a great feeling. The meal was great. We loved this spot a lot and we will definitely return to this restaurant. we highly recommend this place.“

“Fast service Clean restaurant Good food“

“Best Chinese food in town, everything was delicious, we had chicken soft noodle, beef and broccoli, fried rice and the seafood platter which had shrimp, fish, imitation crab and vegetables. Will definitely go back and will make it are new Chinese food spot. Highly recommend. Service was great too.“

“Best Chinese food in the area and very nice people!“

“Again, the 5 stars is just because i don't want to hiurt anyone's rating. But this place was not good. I should have known when I walked in as it was dirty and the building is falling apart. The BBQ pork buns were mushy and inedible. The potstickers had crunchy and hard edges. The orange chicken was grisly, chewy, and all dark meat parts. Definitely would not eat there again. 50 bucks down the tubes.“

“Food delivered faster than expected. Everything was delicious, packed just right and even arrived as hot as if it went straight to my table from the wok.“

“The most kind, efficient, helpful and aim to please staff I've ever encountered. The food.is excellent! The best good food around and no excessive prices. Definitely try it!

Vegetarian options: Chow Mein, rice, egg roles..too.many to list.

Parking: Excellent!

Kid-friendliness: A family place and peaceful as well!“

“Super sweet owners got there two minutes before they closed and they were more than welcoming to help us. They had ran out of chow mein since they were two min from closing and the owner literally made fresh chow mein for us. Will definitely be coming here more often :)“

“Surprisingly better than most of the local Chinese food. I do like how it's fresh and doesn't come in a can or bag like most restaurants get from single source Chinese food distributors. Hence the reason you see the menus are mostly the same from place to place. Love the staff here super friendly !!“

“I had a lovely experience at this Panda Express location. The food was hot and fresh, not to mention delicious. The staff is very friendly and professional. Ika, the manager is amazing. Her attitude and kindness are infectious. Definitely recommend!“

“This place has amazing food! Wow! The chow mein had the best flavor I've ever had! I will always come back for more! Also loved their honey walnut shrimp!! My friend who doesn't always eat shrimp tried one and loved them so much that I had to fight her for the last one!! They were so good!! WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!“
