Had an incredible lunch at Golden City! We ordered the rangoon, shrimp chow mein, sizzling beef with black pepper sauce, and Japanese scallop tofu. Everything tasted great. The service was very friendly and quick. They also do catering and sell party size trays. Recommend!

A Great Cantonese Dining Experience Visited Golden City Restaurant in Kearny Villa on a Sunday around 2 PM, and it was a pleasant experience. The place wasn’t crowded, and parking was ample, making it a hassle-free visit. Ordered the fish filet with tofu and the sweet and sour pork lunch special—both were flavorful and satisfying. Also tried the fried chicken wings, which were well-cooked and tasty. The serving sizes were impressive, very worth it for the price. The ambiance was great, and the service was efficient. Order taking, food serving, and billing were all quick and smooth. Tried their milk tea with boba, which was decent for its price point. Since we couldn’t finish everything, we had leftovers packed and even ordered extra Yang Chow fried rice to go. The total bill was $70, which was very reasonable for the amount and quality of food. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a good Cantonese restaurant. The only minor comment is that the older gentleman serving food could be more welcoming—he seemed quite serious. However, the lady taking the order had a warm smile and was very friendly. Overall, a great spot for a satisfying and affordable meal! Will definitely return.

Super fresh, great dumplings with traditional fillings. The staff really loves what they do. The pork and shrimp Xiao loong bao has big chunks of fresh shrimp. The chicken and mushroom bao were plump and juicy. The boiled pork and garlic chive dumplings had lovely chewy skins and lots of juicy meat and plenty of garlic chives in them. They served them to us fresh from the pot. So very good. There is red chili oil, black vinegar, and soy sauce available. We were lucky enough to get to see the staff at their lunch, too.

Hell yeah Having a bad day? Coming here So good So chill Eat here, then do your groceries Get a box of 9 egg n chives Then order more, go home and freeze egg n chives Pig ears are rather tasty as well

I was surprised to find a potato noodle (土豆粉) spot in San Diego after more than a decade! Brought my husband, child, and mom to try it—such a nostalgic experience. The potato noodles were generous in portion; I got one spicy with crispy pork and one original with beef. The spicy one was too intense for me, but if you love heat, you’ll enjoy it! The original tasted just like I remembered, especially with extra vinegar. My husband preferred the braised beef noodle soup—the broth was rich, and the beef was tender. We also got crispy chicken and skewers, which paired perfectly. The shop is inside Zhengxin Chicken—definitely worth a visit for a comforting and nostalgic meal!

Potato noodles are an absolute delight! The texture is incredibly chewy and smooth, making every bite satisfying. The broth is rich, flavorful, and packed with aromatic spices, creating a deep and comforting taste. The combination of fresh vegetables, tender meat, and secret sauces enhances the overall experience. Plus, being naturally gluten-free makes it a great option for those with dietary restrictions. If you’re looking for a unique and authentic Chinese dish, potato noodles are definitely worth trying!

Best soup dumplings I have ever had. High pace yet cozy environment, louder atmosphere, all the staff were accommodating. It gets busy during dinner time but it’s worth the wait. Can’t go wrong with any food or drink you choose.

Great atmosphere and service and wonderful food. We ordered hot and sour soup, dumplings and Kung Pao sea bass. It was all delicious. We will definitely be back.

I have gone to Jasmine for several years. I think for Dim Sum in Dan Diego their food is very good. It really has the Hong Kong taste. The only thing about this restaurant is the atmosphere (it really needs to be remodeled as it feels old and worn-out). The furniture and interior of the restaurant just needs to be redone. If you just want good Dim Sum, this place has good Dim Sum. If you want a nice dining experience there are nicer places to go for ambience.

Amazing dim sum experience at Jasmine Seafood! Ate a lot more than was able to take pictures of, loved the buns, xiao long bao, shrimp and pork dumplings, cucumber salad, and more. Friendly service that is always going around with carts of food and water and tea refills. Beautiful dining room, great for groups of any size. Recommend!

This was one of our favorite Chinese restaurants before the pandemic; good thing this place is still open and has survived COVID! The flavors and quality are still consistent, each dish from different regions have a distinct local taste, and the chef does a pretty good job at getting the basics right. The food is not overly salty or sweet, and always leaves the right after taste. We used to also come here for breakfast on weekends, they also have good dim sum options if you don’t want to go to a more crowded restaurant like Jasmin. The meats here are never dry and always juicy!

Chef Chin is our favorite Chinese restaurant in San Diego. Food is always great! Ingredients are fresh and each dish is well seasoned (never too salty or too sweet) and properly cooked. They have a good collection of vegetarian dishes. Service is great, too! The staffs are friendly, and the restaurant has a clean and cozy ambiance.

If you want good Chinese shi cuan food at reasonable price with large portions, this is the place to be. Everything we ordered came out quickly, piping hot and delicious. The cold plate portion was generous and delicious. Had the smoked chicken, pork stomach and spicy beef as the cold plate. Ordered fish with preserved veg and stir fry beef. The beef was tender and perfectly cooked, slightly spicy and went well with rice. Service is brisk. Very large menu. Located in mall with free parking but parking was a bit tough during peak lunch time. It's definitely worth a visit if in the area.

I noticed Spicy House serves Da Pan Ji (Big Plate Chicken) for just over $20, so I decided to try it along with Dongpo Pork, salted egg yolk tofu, and scallion pancakes—dishes my dad loves. Everything was delicious and great value! The tofu was super flavorful and perfect with rice, the pork was tender and not greasy, and the Da Pan Ji was a huge portion with wide noodles, making it an incredible deal. Only the scallion pancake was average. My dad loved the meal, and with four of us eating, we still had leftovers!

That good 90's style American Chinese food. Definitely the best in San Diego, if not in so cal. If we use panda Express as a benchmark, with panda receiving a B- these guys get a solid A. The server was very friendly and they were open to modifications. I've been trying to find a place that makes green bean chicken with black bean sauce and noticed they had green bean chicken and they had a dish that was green beans with black bean sauce. They combined it into one dish for me and it was delectable.

Authentic food & service. Ladies helping us were so kind, took time to go over the menu with us. Affordable place to eat & delicious. Nice little spot. I got phili roll & tried their bagel roll. Plenty to eat & had left over!

I ordered the Black Pepper Angus Beef bowl with lomein. Although there was no mention of an extra charge on the menu, or notification from the serving employee that there would be an extra charge for the Black Pepper Angus Beef selection, I was charged an extra $1.25. There was very little beef in the bowl and everything was very oily. All I could taste was oil and black pepper. I would not recommend this selection. Definitely not worth the price. Luckily there are nearby mom & pop Chinese restaurants that serve quality food with fair portions and prices. Update: Got 2 Beijing Beef bowls, one with Fried Rice and one with Lo Mein noodles. The beef was oily and so heavily breaded to the point you could only taste the sauce. The fried rice was ok, but the Lo Mein noodles were oily. I would not order Beijing Beef again. Update: Got the new Hot Orange chicken bowls, one over Lo Mein and the other over Fried Rice. Both were good.

The best panda express location! They are quick and the food is always fresh and tasty. Of course the portions they give will always be tracked (shrimp count, etc.) But as far as the quality goes, the food is the best quality compared to other Panda locations in San Diego.

We decided to have Chinese food tonight but not your typical Chinese food. We decided to dine at Shan Xi Magic Kitchen, which is known for their delicious hand pulled noodles The dishes were ordered were delicious, and yes, they were all quite spicy. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Ordering was easy since you ordered from your phone. Overall, this was a fantastic experience. 1. Spicy Hand ripped noodle soup 2. Spicy hot oil hand ripped noodle with tomato and egg. 3. Spicy Chili Dumplings 4. Eggplant with Garlic Sauce 5. Crispy Spicy Chicken

The magic is how happy my tummy feels after visiting this place Consistency is not of their strong suit so but it’ll range from a tasty to a I’ve met god So worst case you get tasty food Come one come all, or don’t, like that I can keep coming with no wait

had an amazing experience at “Fish with you”! The food was delicious — the fish was fresh, tender, and perfectly cooked. The broth was rich and flavorful without being too heavy, and the sourness from the pickled vegetables was just right. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the restaurant had a cozy, clean atmosphere. Portion sizes were generous and the prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food. Highly recommend this place if you’re craving authentic and comforting Chinese cuisine. I’ll definitely be coming back again!

Tried the newly opened Fish with You with my family. The menu is simple, featuring fish, beef, and spicy mix bowls. We had the Green Pepper Sauerkraut Fish (black fish), Spicy Boiled Beef, and Molten Coconut Ball. The fish was tender, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with spice and tang—highly recommend! The beef was rich and spicy, great for sharing. Free unlimited rice is a nice touch. Prices are reasonable, about $20 per person. The place feels like a modern Chinese casual eatery—fast, affordable, and no-fuss. The owner even gifted my son an adorable mascot plush—so sweet! Will be back to try more flavors!

Got ripped off. I ordered the "half size" Peking Duck (instead of the full duck) to go for dinner. Paid almost $22 for half size. I got home and saw, it was NOT half size! It was literally 7 tiny pieces of dark meat cut from thigh AND some pieces of skin, totaling the size of my hand! No white meat from the breast. No leg meat. Half means, you get the white meat + dark meat with or without bones. Called restaurant back and kitchen staff member tried to argue he gave me half size, but see my photo and video for yourself. Then compare my "Half size Peking Duck" with other google review photos- BIG DIFFERENCE! Were they thinking I wouldn't know any better because its carry out? If they only serve the thigh, then list the item as "Peking Duck Thigh". NOT HALF SIZE. This was total misled. A lie. The 1 star is for the nice lady who took the order. Be an honest establishment. You work hard to build your restaurant, but your customers also worked hard to earn their money to spend at your restaurant. Don't take people as fools. Be better.

Both beef hor fun and Steamed red snapper turned out to be a disappointment. There is no wok qi in the beef hor fun dish. Steamed fish is not fresh and slightly fishy. Large oyster dish is good. We are given complimentary egg tarts that look sad and likely are left over from lunch time. Unfortunately I will not recommend this place for dinner. Is costs us almost $100 for just these 3 dishes.
