Horrible, just went into the restaurant and there was a sign that the dinning room was closed so we made our way into the bar at 5pm and only then were told the kitchen was closed. Really? Goodbye forever!
Paula was wonderful, amazing service. Food was great. Would absolutely come back here again :)

It was my first time here. I enjoyed the food and the prices are responsible.
Always fast, friendly and fresh
Honestly, I set the bar pretty low for these kind of places, but China House definitely cleared it and we’ll be going again, most likely for takeout.
We’ve lived in McMinnville since 2020 and finally tried this place on a recent Sunday afternoon. The decor, outside and inside, definitely needs some work. But that’s pretty typical for ‘family style’ Chinese restaurants in the USA (is it just me or do all these places look like they opened in 1985 and haven’t changed a thing since?).
We were seated quickly and offered the usual hot tea. We started with crab puffs and barbecue pork, both above average and freshly made. Our entrées were orange chicken and a spicy beef vegetable dish. Again, both were above average, fresh and tasty. Service was quick and efficient and friendly.
After listening to the nonstop racket coming from the bar area, we decided to go there for an after dinner drink. There was a very casual pool tournament happening, and it was fun to watch. The people, both Staff and customers, were very friendly. The beer was a little flat the prices were good, so I’m not complaining… Nice selection of gambling machines, if that’s your thing.
Overall, I set the bar pretty low for these types of places, but this is one of the better ones in McMinnville, for sure. Will be going again.
Always a lively scene in the lounge. Great staff and service, as well.

5:30 pm Sat. 3/8. I found the entry area to Restaurant/building to be covered with butts and trash. Paint is desperately needed on wall at entry area. I ordered ahead so I went in. I would never had gone in for food had I not ordered ahead. I haven't been here in a couple of years. I don't remember it being like this.
Secondly the Lo Mein was not very good. Missing something. It didn't have LoMein flavor. Very Bland. I was disappointed . The Lo Mein was 17.95. Please clean up outside.
DJ Jenn Jarred really knows how to move throw a good party and a karaoke night. Quite possibly the best karaoke in the area. Super fun and she is super knowledgeable. Loved it. Loved the new remodel and the additional added pool table. Three total now. Great drinks. Great food. Great bartender Tammy and other staff. They have all the oregon lottery games. Full bar. Karaoke that starts after 9pm. I recommend the pot stickers.
Love to gamble here
The food is actually pretty good in the service is fine as well Good place to eat and take the family
Best house made Pot Stickers in Yamhill County. The atmosphere is vintage 1970's Chinese restaurant style. The bar has had a small renovation the flooring has been redone and additional seating has been added. The service is always great and the food is scratch made. When you order sweet and sour chicken you actually get pretty good sized pieces of chicken not just breading. Their pot stickers are large and made in house not frozen! We have tried almost everything on the menu and every dish has been excellent. Our favorite go to is an order of pot stickers. Then we pick 3 from their Pick Favorites selection; crab puffs, BBQ pork, and sweet and sour chicken. Seriously the best Chinese food I have had in a very long time. I like that they do not use artificial coloring or MSG. The owners are very nice and great people which is refreshing. They also own Kin's Bar and Grill in Lafayette, Or. I was told we could get the same amazing pot stickers there as well. FYI they do have a lot of pool tournaments at any given time. We still got great service and food even with so much going on.
