Chinese
It was 1999 when China City opened its doors to the world and let everyone enjoy the delicious American-Chinese cuisine. And within a short period of time, people were raving for the cuisine more than ever.

Maybe it's our attentive and detailed staff. Or maybe it's because of the fact that we prepare everything on the spot, within our own kitchen, without using too many machines.

We hand trim, slice and dice our meat to make sure it’s perfect. We offer vegetarian delights that drive you crazy. And all our appetizers are homemade, hand folded, crimped and cut, which is why most people just finish their meals with the appetizers alone.

Our locations make sure that you get the best American-Chinese feeling as possible. Our newest location is in Mill Creek, a place to escape the bustle of the shopping center in our beautiful dining area.

    I made the reservation the day before online which I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was. We had a party of 11 and when we arrived the host put us in a private dining room which was perfect for us. There was a big round table that made it nice for visiting with each other. It was the first time there for most of our party and I think they enjoyed everything about the place. We will definitely keep you in mind for our next Chinese meal out.

    It took about 45 min until someone came to welcome us and start taking our order and we actually had to call someone over to help us. The food took just as long to come out. Food was good, but service needs improvement especially if we're automatically being charged a 20% gratuity fee.

    My husband liked it but I didn’t care for it. It’s good if you like American Chinese takeout food that is very overpriced. A small plate of broccoli for $15? It’s basically like going to Panda Express for 3x the cost and most things are breaded, fried and doused with thick very sweet sauce. That may appeal to a lot of folks but it’s nothing near real Chinese food.

    Exceptional Service all around… booking and communicating with the restaurant was effortless… the restaurant responded quickly and provided info regarding special requests… the food and service was top notch… food prep had perfect timing and perfect amount for my party of 10… everyone in party enjoyed every dish and some even ordered same dish for takeout… We enjoyed celebrating a birthday inside the Wine Room! Thank You China City!

    Everything was wonderful. Great service, great food. My only critique is that we reaerved the enclosed glass room with the round family table. We loved the feeling of privacy but the noise level was the same as if we were not enclosed. My father-in-law wears hearing aides, which was the reason for the enclosed room and it was as if it didn’t exist for him. Other than that is was a great experience.

    Very nice experience. Service was great and food was good. I say the food was good only because there was nothing that made the scale tip over to fantastic so just basic Chinese fare but the portions were nice size. Even though it was not very busy we were a party of eleven and they took good care of us.

    After a 50 minute wait for a table, even with a reservation, we walked out. No apologies from t he staff and instead they blamed Open Table and said that I made the reservation on too short notice. I made the reservation an hour before and according to Open Table they had openings before and after the time I reserved. Needless to say we will not go back.

    The atmosphere is very nice, as was the staff. The Brussels Spouts were too salty. The diet soda was flat. My husband enjoyed the Lettuce Wraps and the Hot & Sour soup was good, but all of our main dishes seem to taste the same. It’s like every dish we ordered, used the same brown sauce. Dishes that are traditionally spicy were not.

    Having lived in the Bay Area of Calif. for the last 35 years, it was great to finally come across a Chinese restaurant with authentic and tasty food. Service was good -- professional and welcoming. I now have a dining place to go whenever the 'Chinese food' bug hits.

    Great place to get together with friends on the weekend. The food was lovely and the menu has a nice selection but it is not overwhelming. Nice ambience and furnishings. The restaurant seemed a bit understaffed when we were there (a Saturday night) but, that could've been a fluke. Our server was very friendly, professional and as attentive as he could be given the volume of tables he was responsible for. We will definitely visit China City again.

    Nice variety of menu and fresh ingredients. Was pretty empty when I went, but still struggled for service. Nice looking inside. Cool view of kitchen from some of the seats, and great private all glass eating/meeting room near the front. Food was good, not great. 1 shrimp in the War Wonton soup. Good flavor of the broth, but was medium warm.
