Chinese Restaurant

Really tasty take out or delivery food. Entree portions are always big enough to share, or you can stretch one order to cover a couple of meals. Only three stars for service and atmosphere because the rice is a really small portion especially if you order for three or more, the online pay portal accepts tips, but the receipt on pickup is printed in a way prompting a second tip (can’t even see tip you already paid on p/u receipt), and dining in is just okay (normal strip mall seating vibe). I do recommend the food for flavorful take out or delivery!

We had the best time at Jasmine Cafe last night. Our server was the sweetest and gave the best service. Food came out fast and hot. We got the basil tofu and sesame tofu and added some extra veggies. The sesame tofu had just a light batter that was crispy but wasn’t overly fried/breaded. Love this local spot.

My girlfriend and I enjoyed our food at Wok In Wok Out. Traditional Chinese & Thai dishes. We started off with (Egg Rolls & Crabmeat Cheese Wontons). Linda’s dish was “Shrimp Fried Rice” and I had “Pad Thai Chicken”. Go check it out.

This was a wonderful dining experience. The dining room is tiny which could pose some problems if you have a large party or they're full. But the atmosphere was wonderful, very cozy and quiet enough to talk to people at your table. As a gluten free eater (non-celiac) this was one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. After placing our order our server made sure to point out the allergens present or avoided in every dish that was brought out, down to the fortune cookies and after dinner mint. It was so reassuring, especially when the food looks so good you're not sure it could be gluten free. We shared egg rolls, sweet and sour chicken, and peanut chicken (all breaded and fried) and I am happy to report that I didn't have a gluten reaction at all. I will absolutely be returning to this little gem of a restaurant.

Been craving fried rice all day so decided to try this place. The hostess was professional and friendly. I ordered egg drop soup and combination fried rice. The egg drop soup was really tasty, but the fried rice tasted like it was a day old. The shrimp was flavorless and had no firmness. As soon as my tongue touched it, it turned to mush in my mouth. The other meats had similar taste and texture. All of the ingredients including the rice and vegetables tasted spoiled and I am now worried I have food poisoning. I paid and left without finishing even half of my food. If it wasn't for the hostess, this would be a 1-star review. edit: I've changed my 2 star to 1 star. I'm violently vomiting after eating from here. I do not recommend this restaurant

We order delivery from them all the time and love it. We decided to go in person on our way to somwhere else. We all tried something different. We all thoroughly enjoyed our dinner! Definitely recommend. Portions are generous. Service is fast and food is fresh!

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

Food was really good and it was a lot for the price usually am not full when I eat other food but here I was and I didn’t finish the whole plate had to save it for later. Price is also low and place is clean 10 out of 10

This place is pretty good. They have large portions and fair pricing. I didn't get super dehydrated after eating, like I do with most other Chinese food. The dim sum was okay, not the best, not the worst. The restaurant was clean and the employee was nice and helpful. I'd say, if you're looking for a middle of the road Chinese food restaurant with large portions and dont want to spend a whole lot, this place is it.

The food was piping hot. The meals/ sides are definitely sharable. If interested in having soup, their small is actually what a large typically would be. The potstickers were absolutely delightful.

The Chinese Dumpling House was a hit for my family get together. It had been some time since we have seen each other. Everyone loved it. The parking is very easy. We were greeted with a big hello and how are you. The service at the Dumpling House is excellent. We had a group of over 20 people. The server who is also the owner with his wife was very friendly. Yes, he did all the serving himself. We went with the kung pao chicken, sesame chicken with a shrimp with wontons appetizer and hot and sour soap. I asked for extra spicey and wow did I get it. I loved it. The sesame chicken was crispy outside and tender on the inside. The hot and sour soup was full of ingredients and very tasty. The shrimp appetizers were incredible. The wontons were crispy and full of flavor. We had excellent food that made our get together extra nice. The dessert was a combination of cake, M&M’s, whipped cream and cookies. They were delicious and a perfect ending to our plentiful meal. The Chinese Dumpling House is incredible.

We have enjoyed eating here for many years. No surprise it's been in business for decades. It's the best Chinese around for no less than a 60 mile radius. Best in Ventura county no doubt. If money is tight you may like to know they have a delicious lunch special with several of the most beloved Chinese food options to choose from.

Family friendly locally loved Mandarin cuisine. Great price - and even though it is perfectly fine to dine alone, I would recommend to come here with a group - so you can try different dishes. Friendly and fast service.

We had our 5th Annual Channel Islands High School All Inclusive Reunion there and all had a great time. 😁😁😁👍👍👍RAIDER NATION ♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍

As a food critic and chef I try certain items first. I had hot and sour soup. Was not done correctly. They used no egg and a ton of pepper. I love spice, but not pepper where pepper has no reason to be in something. Next drinks were so small and so high in price I feel no matter how they try? Staff was friendly, but had no clue. Just so you know I have made the soup hundreds of times and bars are never that expensive.
