Tasty China
Got some food Togo here at Tasty China. We tried the duck, honey walnut shrimp, orange chicken, and Pork Xia bao. Every thing was delicious, the pork xiao and duck were top notch. The orange chicken wasn’t my favorite but it was still good. A little pricey, but good portion sizes!
Update 2024: Still one of the best authentic Chinese restaurants in the 805. My family ordered for Christmas, making it a tasty and easy holiday feast. Some of our faves are the Xiong long bao, honey Walnut shrimp, Chili fish, BBQ ribs, green onion pancake and Chow mein. Always such a pleasant visit!!! 2019: Authentically Tasty indeed! Staff is very friendly and welcoming. There is nothing on the menu that isn't good. Do yourself a favor and git on dez flavors!!! The Beef Noodle soup is amazing, dumplings are so so juicy and my guilty pleasure is the honey walnut shrimp!
Spring Garden Chinese Restaurant
Small family restaurant with authentic Chinese food. Cindy, the restaurant owner was extremely hospitable and friendly. Enjoyed the stir fried noodles with the dishes that came with it, beef was tender and food were served piping hot. Truely a remarkable experience of authentic chinese cuisine. Highly recommend: stir fried noodles, orange chicken, walnut shrimp, egg soup and stir fried eggplant, beef and broccoli.
Service was awful and disrespectful. With a good service, spending money on food becomes easier. The egg nodule soup was ok but the Low Main was terrible. The owner must train the waitresses how to receive the guests with respect and how to serve food to provide pleasant dining experience for their customers. This restaurant is on my black list, meaning that I will never dine there again. I usually tip 20% but in this case I tipped 5% because of the unpleasant experience.
Peking Restaurant
Realistically, the only decent Chinese restaurant, locally. Many flavorful options to choose. Lunch menu is an inexpensive option, however, smaller portions and no appetizer included for $14. The lunch specials do provide soup and salad. My preference is to try the Peking or Chef Dinners for $3 more that will offer you a full course meal with optional choices at an affordable price, per person. Tastefully decorated dining area with a modern, casual setting. Clean restaurant and restrooms. Friendly staff.
We ate here for the first time on Saturday afternoon. My bf and I both had the lunch specials of orange chicken and Szechuan Chicken. It was fantastic. It came with soup, salad, entree and rice. We will definitely be coming back. Everything was fresh and looked wonderful. It simply was delicious. Our server was great too. After we paid we were visited by, (we think) the owner and she asked us how we liked everything, we raved and let her know it was our first visit and that we would be back.
China Kitchen
I got the veggie tofu chow mein 👌👌👌 my hot date said “my nana used to bring me here” 🥲
Authentic food, user-friendly menu, real people that know their guests and treat them well. I tried to save a portion of my Kung Pao Chicken for later but it was just too damn tasty. Perhaps overlooked after the mall anchor BB&B closed its operation, China Kitchen is on point. The egg drop soup, wontons, mini shrimp and egg roll can all be had in the dinner package for the cost of a couple of Starbucks’ Ventis. Check them out!
Lee's Chinese Food
The Chinese food you had growing up, is still here. This is a rare treat for Chinese food enthusiasts of what some may call 'standard fare' is now the uncommon bordering on rare variation of family owned Chinese food done the right way. Delicious. Food aside, service was atrocious, and the atmosphere hasn't changed since the early 90s, so, pretty much a "classic" experience. But the food is worth it.
Ordered via Uber Eats, we got the honey walnut shrimp and Sichuan fish, both were good The lunch menu seems like a great value, today we got the sweet and sour chicken with fried rice plus an order of 6pc wings. The former was tasty but wings were salty for me.
Gourmet Oriental
Very tasty Chinese food. We got the lunch special. Friendly staff and fresh ingredients I came to sit down and rest from walking around town.
Gourmet Oriental is my new favorite Chinese spot in Ventura. Tucked away off the grid in a small corner on Main Street, it’s the kind of place you almost miss if you’re not looking — shhh, it’s a secret local spot! If you're craving authentic Chinese food, this is where you want to be. Their wonton and hot & sour soups are both amazing! I’m hooked on the chicken chow mein soft noodle, Kung Pao chicken, and tangerine chicken. You really can’t go wrong with anything here. The broccoli beef, mu shu pork, Szechuan boiled fish or beef, and Mongolian beef are also fantastic. And if shrimp’s your thing, try the har gow or any of the shrimp dishes, all winners. Everything’s made fresh to order, so I recommend calling ahead. The staff is always friendly, and their prices are the best you’ll find anywhere in Ventura. Great lunch and dinner specials too! Gourmet Oriental is a total hidden gem and now my go-to for Chinese!
New Panda
I'm writing this review because I think the current 3.6 star rating is too low. Ordered the combination chow mein special. Their chow mein has that classic wok cooked stir-fry taste I love. Not sure what the bad reviews are about. The price is reasonable, and the service was good and fast.
This was honestly some of the worst food I’ve ever had. I ordered the orange chicken and almond chicken, and both were absolutely disgusting. The almond chicken tasted like straight piss—like someone had actually peed in the food. It was beyond gross. As for the orange chicken, I’m not even sure it was chicken. There was no meat, just a weird sauce. If I could give zero stars, I would. Save your money and go somewhere else!
Panda Express
Every item was available and fresh!! Staff was attentive and patient! I have kids that know what they want till we get to the counter!! Great place for me and my family to have family time!!
Always after 10 at night they make bad food. I do not recommend going to eat after 10 PM. The cooks make very bad food. I do not recommend it. If they cannot do something well, they should do it before that time. This has happened to me more than 5 times. I am fed up with always bad food, poor quality
BEIJING BUFFET
I've lost count of how many plates we've had. We love the sashimi, shrimp, kimchi was great. Love the classics pepsi cups they use here too! Reminds me of childhood. So happy we have a buffet in town!! Great place 👍🏼
I usually never rate places this low, but unfortunately this had become one of them. I had really high hopes for this restaurant especially because we do need more Chinese places in ventura, but when we arrived we paid $78 for 3 people, 2 seniors one child. as we began to browse it was somewhat limited to how many items there were, the food was luke warm and over cooked with little to no flavor, the orange chicken was very soggy and swimming in the orange sauce. overall I just hope they actually taste what they’re serving and maybe will decide to change some things. especially given the fact they just recently became open. overall not a terrible experience but i just wish it felt like they put more effort into the food regardless if it’s “buffet” style.
Panda Express
I can’t say enough how rude the workers were even the manger. I stood there for 10 minutes waiting to order while the manger was doing an online order and talking shit with the other worker about other customers. While I waited 10 minutes the line was all the way back to the play structure and she was only doing online orders everytime they came in. Once she finally took my order they only had an option of orange chicken and shrimp. Said it was a 30 minute wait for everything else because it all went to the online orders. Never going there again
With the increasingly less and less options to at at the Pacific View Mall, Panda Express is always a good consistent option. You are rarely surprised here. Workers are decent and fast. Food is hot and ready usually. Line moves fast which is great for short lunch breaks. I know many complain about the authenticity of this food but it’s great American Asian cuisine and decent prices. Fried rice, orange chicken, cream cheese ragoons, can’t go wrong with what you pick usually.
