Chinese Restaurant

Fresh, fast and delicious. We went here for lunch around when it opened. We are usually a bit cautious with buffet because I don't like the idea of food sitting, which is why we go early. Food was fresh and well prepared when we arrived. We saw the food constantly get replaced and refilled with fresh food. All cooked food was a nice hot temperature. All cold food was over ice and kept cold. Sushi was very nice and very fresh. Staff was very attentive with clearing plates and filling drinks. Overall, great experience. Nothing negative to say - except for some of the patrons loudly watching things on their phones, but that isn't the restaurant's fault, some people suck.

Wow, what a great place. Excellent food… Lots of food! This is a great place to bring the family, they have lots of Seating. Beautiful decor, and clean!

Did a mobile order and this is the “Beijing Beef” I received as my portion after moving the broccoli that tasted as though it was a day old out of the way. Not to mention the crab Rangoon’s that looked as though they were maybe cooked for 30 seconds and were cold to the touch like they had been sitting out since the morning shift. That’s ridiculous and I’d like to see you try to serve that to someone who was ordering in line.

First time to eat here and probably the last time because; The rice was clearly old , day old hard tasting, unpleasantness that I had to drown in sauce to dress up for taste which still had that dry old crunchy taste. The orange chicken was MID and the only thing worthy of note was the teriyaki chicken which was actually flavorful. But that rice my god was down right awful and taught me to save my money and stick to house special rice at china delight and east buffet

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.

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!

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 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!

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

Love coming here such yummy food! Customer service was top tier cam was a great host! The bulgogi bao and chili wontons are standout items, offering a delicious fusion of flavors. The restaurant’s playful decor and plant-filled patio add to the experience, though it can get busy, leading to longer waits. Parking in the area can be tricky, but the quality of the food makes it worth the trip. A great choice for those craving creative and tasty Asian-inspired dishes!

The kings of Convoy St. This place will blow you away. I tried a fried chicken bao and the bulgoggi wrap to start. Both really really good. Fresh and strong flavor without being overpowering. The piggy taco was one of the best I’ve ever had. Insanely juicy and tender. Amazing. A must stop for any San Diego foodie

I’ve never been to China Max before it burned down but it seems like ppl are excited for it to re-open. I went during lunch before I was told there’s an AYCE option. Unfortunately it was only during dinner and it ended on 3/27. Anyway, six of us ordered multiple dishes to share. Chicken dumplings in hot chili oil were great. I liked the texture as well as the taste (although a bit more spicy would be better). Sweet and Sour pork ribs were tender and flavorful. Noodles with Pork Chop were good. The noodles were chewy in a good way and pork chop was crispy and not over fried. The soup dumplings and pan fried pork buns were ok. The cucumber salad was disappointing as they were not marinated long enough. The spicy sauce on top was plain. There were many items not available during our visit. I think it’s a good place to try it out but not my go to place. The taste and the portion are not worth the price.

Not sure what the hype is. Crab XLB were dry with no broth in them and they tasted like canned crab. The pork siu mai looked old and had a weird texture. Chicken dumplings in spicy oil were ok but nothing special. Servers were nice and answered questions which is a plus. So glad they had Tsingtao to wash my disappointment away!

Our Chinese friend took us here, and below is our group’s review. Dishes marked with asterisks are our all-time favorites: 1. *Ginger Scallion Beef: 7.7/10 Slender, juicy beef with great flavor. 2. Sausage Fried Rice: 6/10 If you like pork and sausage, this one's for you! 3. *Beef Chow Mein: 7/10 Great flavor, but the noodle texture could be better. 4. *Garlic String Beans: 8.5/10 Perfectly seasoned, though we'd prefer the string beans to be crispier. 5. Xiao Long Bao: 7/10 Big and thick, but not as fresh or juicy as we expected. 6. Garlic Broccoli: 7/10 Good overall, but we were hoping for Chinese broccoli. 7. Pork Buns: 9/10 Crispy bottom, perfectly cooked dough, seasoned with green scallions, and stuffed with pork—what’s not to love? 8. *Hunan-Style Lamb: 9.5/10 A must-try for spice lovers—heavenly! Pairs perfectly with the sausage fried rice. 9. Honey Walnut Shrimp: 7.5/10 Candied walnuts cooked to perfection, with jumbo shrimp that are tasty, though the sauce was a bit too sweet.

Delicious Seafood pepper noodles and pumpkin pancake! We actually were going to the next door restaurant but saw quite a few people waiting outside this restaurant so we decided to try it. Most of the patrons were Asians. We just ordered what the next table had ordered which looked really good. That was a smart thing to do :-)

We decided to try a restaurant that we always to try. Lanzhou Noodlelicious is a fantastic place. The food was delicious and flavorful. It's great to see a chef make fresh hand pulled noodles for your dish. Our waiter, who was by himself, was great and answered all our questions about the dishes. He was friendly and work very hard to help all the guest. The Braised Beef Noodle Soup is one of the best I've had in San Diego. The best part is you get to choose the type of noodles you want in your dish. This was a great experience and the food was delicious. We definitely will return for another meal 1. Spicy Hot Oil Noodles 2. Braised Beef Brisket Noodle Soup 3.Chicken And Squid Skewers 4. Steamed buns (mantou)

Update August 2nd 2024 Same Delicious beef broth for all noodle. Lamb skewers great not stink at all, . That noodles were so different, they flew through my stomach. I ordered beef noodles, spicy noodles, and a cold appetizer. I want to try more next time

If you’re looking for authentic and delicious BBQ that transports you straight to the streets of China, this is the place to go! The moment I tasted the skewers, I was overwhelmed with a nostalgic feeling of being back home. The flavors are rich, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection, with each bite more satisfying than the last. The spiral potato skewer had just the right crispiness and seasoning that melted in my mouth, while the meat skewers were tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The spice levels were on point—just enough heat to keep you coming back for more. Even the smaller dishes like quail eggs, chicken feet, and cold noodles were packed with bold, authentic flavors that reminded me of traditional Chinese street food. The service was outstanding, too. The staff were incredibly welcoming, making me feel at home with their warm and friendly demeanor. The atmosphere added to the experience, creating a truly unforgettable meal. If you’re craving a taste of China, don’t miss out on this gem. It’s an absolute must-visit!

Chinese street food in a sit down environment l, most people come to buy things like the smoked duck neck by the pound( which is amazing by the way)or some seasoned veggies. For me the star is the skewers any and everything is amazing chose between 5 spice spicy extra spicy or sweet and sour for each it doesn't matter they're all awesome. The staff is friendly and helpful everything is made to order BTW and it comes out hot and fast.
