Affordable priced Chinese food village that is full of overpriced all kinds of food. Shrimp lo mein, fried rice and an eggroll $11.50 David

It was super late and my family and I were hungry and spur of the moment decided to get food from here… and let me add, my husband does not usually care for Chinese food… but they did not disappoint. Probably the best Chinese food I’ve ever had to be honest. Will definitely come back here again.

This is a typical Chinese take out restaurant with a few tables for those that decide to eat in. The service was quick and I enjoyed seeing the chefs making the food behind the glass. The fried rice and egg rolls were very quick. The general tsos was pretty good, but the chicken with broccoli was lacking in flavor. We would go back again and try a new dish!

It was later in the evening and we were craving some quick food and did not want to sit down at a formal restaurant. Don't let appearances fool you. So this place is near the end or at the beginning of the main strip, depending where you start. I walked in and was little nervous. I looked around and saw some tables in the skinny dining area, menus off to the side and a window pane glass to the right with someone standing there and some cooks going to town cooking with the woks. I stood there for awhile and watched and was really curious and impressed. I have to give this place a shot. So you place your orders on the paper menus on the right, put your name on it and give it to the person behind the glass pane. (my order was to go, it may be different for dining in) The gentleman who was there confirmed my order and was very nice. Told me about how long it would take. (It was an appropriate time, seemed little long, but would be more concerned if it was too quick). I wish I had pictures of the food, it was delicious. Got the shrimp lo mein. It was packed in one of the little to go folding boxes, the fried wontons were great (kids loved them), hot and sour soup (could have been little thicker consistency), and Szechuan chicken (good). We were hungry, so at first was like it was so good because we were hungry. I went back the next day for lunch and it was same quality food. You can even watch the cooks cook the food on the flaming woks back there. Reasonable priced, great food. Just make sure to check your order. Staff was pleasant when I was there.

Came here on the 4th of July expecting to have to wait a while, but was pleasantly surprised that we got our food ordered and it arrived quickly! Was hot and delicious and service was very kind. :)

I ordered 4 things off of the menu and my total was just under $50. I was charged for items I did not order. As you can see by the photos, I ordered 4 items. They mistakenly marked another item and charged me for it. Even worse, our actual order was only 32.75 before tax. I payed 49.68. For 4 items (2 dishes 2 sides). Where did that last $17 mysteriously come from? Is each fortune cookie now $10 each?! I feel ripped off and disappointed. At least they are quick to make the food, but it’s not even worth the price. From now on, it’d be great to see an itemized receipt for all purchases. I feel robbed, honestly.

I was looking for a cheap and quick lunch. The pizzeria I was planning to go to was closed, so I ended up here. The young lady at the cash seemed annoyed to have a customer. She was really unpleasant. Zero for atmosphere in there, and blasting the AC... in April. Judging by the boxes of ingredients piled up in the dining area, it's obvious they're buying the cheapest, least healthy vegetable oils available. The serving size of the lunch special was just barely enough. I'll never go back.

Really good Chinese food. Definitely returning. Exactly how I was hoping it would all taste and even was made quickly. Only complaint? Fried rice is a little too tasteless for my liking.

Their "vegetables" was mostly big chunks of onionsStick to the medium priced entrees.....The higher priced entrees had the same amount of premium ingredients (like shrimp & meats)

It's pretty good, but it takes a while for food to be ready, the price is reasonable, and I can't really complain about this take out spot, 4/5 stars

We did not eat-in so I cannot fairly rate the "atmosphere." I am always skeptical of a Chinese restaurant in s strip mall/on the main drag, however, China City is an exception. We walked in, placed our order, walked out 15/20 minutes later and went home to have the most delicious Chinese meal ever!!! The steamed dumplings, the Family Shrimp and chicken fried rice were delicious and filling! Enjoying a take out meal, with our own alcohol preferences, made it an affordable and convenient dinner, with leftovers for lunch tomorrow!!!

I was blown away by the diversity of what Asian dishes were offered and how delicious it was. Well done China City! Singapore noodles was one of our favorites!
Prices online are about half what I was charged. Forgot multiple items. Not sure what happened to this place. I changed from a 5 star to a 1 star. Be better. Local who won’t be back.
