We were very impressed with our experience at DONHAO. The food exceeded our expectations and might be some of the best Chinese food we've ever had. You could tell each dish used quality ingredients and were fresh and vibrant. While it might be a bit more expensive than traditional Chinese restaurants, the value was fantastic given the quality and quantity. The Walnut Shrimp was a true stand out. Can't wait to return!

I especially love their filet of cod with pine nuts and the perfect sauce on top. Presentation is lovely. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I’ve been there 3 times and would come more often if lived closer to Danville; however will surely visit again and again.

The lunch set is a really good well priced meal. You get soup, small salad, tasty egg roll and an entree paired with rice or chow mein. Will be back.

The food is outstanding & the cocktails were awesome ! Service was excellent. The main drawback is its extremely noisy & you can barely carry on a conversation. I would love to see the lighting not so bright over the bar so it has a little more atmosphere. The Walnut Prawns were amazing!!
