Chinese Restaurant

Went in just now. It's not often we go outside our normal spot. I couldn't help but laugh. And it gave me a really good laugh. We were offered tea. Didn't even pour ourselves a glass because soap was just bubbling out the spout. My bf skeptical goes in for a finger taste. Maybe it's just foamy tea?? No it's soap. They served us soap. 🤣

This place is solid. We went for lunch. The interior is very dated but it’s clean and the food is fast, hot and pretty good. We ordered two lunch specials and both were delicious. I ordered the sweet-and-sour chicken and was happily surprised to see there was actually more chicken than breading . The portion sizes are huge so if you are a light eater, you might want to split a plate. The cream cheese, wontons were the best I’ve had in Salem and don’t forget to order the egg rolls. They’re super crispy and tasty . The prices are very affordable. I will definitely eat here again. Our total with tip was $36. The service was fast.

We have eaten here every few months for the last few years and I am always impressed. The food is super yummy! The staff is very nice and we are always glad to see our favorite server Ireland. And she genuinely seems happy to us too! Thanks for a great experience!

Haven't been here for 5 years. Thought I would give it another chance since they did some remodeling. But unfortunately they didn't change the quality of their food. It's the same old slop. If you like over cooked frozen vegetables and shrimp covered in beef processed gravy, then this is the place for you. The rice was lumpy too. That's a sign the rice is leftover and reheated. To make my experience worse, I used the bathroom too. There was no paper towels and soap. I couldn't wait to get out of there! Never again!

First off, I realize this could be sacrilege or heresy to some, but I've never been a big fan of Chinese food. I find myself looking at the menu and wondering wtf 99% of the food is. If I don't know what it is, Do I really want to take that risk? Thereafter I once again find myself contemplating life as I'm stuck on a toilet for hours wondering how I went so wrong in life to end up at that exact moment. Oh right...Chinese food. Everyone I know generally has the same issue. Can't imagine a household of 10 people sharing one Toilet after eating Chinese food....That's a horrifying thought. Chopstick Brothers however, Totally different story. Other Chinese restuarants, Please take note. General Tsos chicken: OMG!!!! Fn mind BLOWN! So damn crispy, So juicy, literally explodes with flavor as you bite into it. It comes out piping hot with a side of perfectly cooked rice. And yes I have to notate the rice. Many believe "Oh it's rice, how can you screw that up." Don't mind those people, They are simpletons, with no idea of the complexity that goes into creating the PERFECT RICE!!!! I can tell that this fine establishment understands the meaning and depth of the secret techniques behind Perfect rice. Pho: Mmmmmmmm super delicious!!!! You take one sip, Next thing you know the whole bowls empty and your reaching across the table strangling your best friend asking WHO DRANK ALL MY SOUP!!!!!! Later after losing your best friend....You realize, It was you who drank all the delicious soup. but you were lost in bliss, enjoying the perfectly balanced spices and aroma, So how could you possibly have known? It's basically your best friends fault. He should have just bought you another bowl of Pho. That's what best friends are for, right? Service: We were seated immediately and the server was very polite and helpful. After ordering im pretty sure we got our food in world record time. It was literally less than 5 minutes. Most places if I got it at that speed, I'd be a little concerned, But my fears were alleviated after trying it. It was simply just them being hyper super supreme chefs with unheard of and unparalleled speeds, serving God tier dishes at a local restuarant near you!!!! Atmosphere: Clean, Very well put together place, with a great ambiance. I highly recommened this place.

Went to chopstick brothers after hearing good things and quickly realized I'd heard from folks who've never had good Chinese food. My stomach was moaning and groaning after eating this stuff. Ordered the Mongolian style shrimp, it was 75% vegetables and 25% shrimp. Shrimp had no sear and tasted like nothing. Ordered fried rice, it was slightly yellow tinted white rice with zero flavor. Ordered spicy beef, it was cold deli meat that I wouldn't have been willing to pay 4 dollars for let alone 10. Any breaded chicken (sweet and sour, general tso, etc) that was ordered was very small tough pieces with what seemed like more breading than meat. We got 80 dollars worth of food for our company to have a nice meal for working hard on the holidays, and instead threw most of it away. I could geniunely find better Asian food in a Trader Joe's frozen section for a quarter of the price.

My husband and I were looking for a new Chinese restaurant. We were not disappointed. The food was wonderful. We let our waitress know it was our first time here and she made several wonderful suggestions. Starting with the egg flower and hot and sour soups, very flavorful. The Dimsum was wonderful and full of flavor. We ordered BBq Pork egg foo young and the flavors popped. We also ordered the Mandarin chicken which was both spicy and sweet but not too spicy, just perfect. My husband also ordered a combination plate with Sweet and sour pork, shrimp, and chicken lomein and fried rice. Our over all experience was great and we will be back. They are a hidden gem here in Salem.

This restaurant is a standout. The booths are very comfortable. It has a nice decor it looks very Chinese. The little small egg rolls are nice and crispy and hot on the inside. When the food comes out it's very hot and it stays hot for a long time and it's delicious. They have the best prices for Chinese food of any place in Salem and food wise they are right up there with the best

Well, if you would like a bag of greasy spilt food all over when you arrive home with no Utensils, then this is the place for you. Unbelievable! I guess business owner must not have any quality control...i place an order picked it up to take to a 12 hour shift and when i arrived at work 20 minute trip the containers they use leaked! All over inside the cheap bag on my car seat! NOT OK! I SPENT OVER $20 ON A MEAL that was a greasy mess! No napkins no fork just a big greasy mess! Oh and the time it took to clean it all up... wont be back to this place EVER AGAIN! also better add all that grease that was used in cooking kung pao chicken made it not so great in tummy town and that was only 1/4 of it i tossed the rest glad i did. What has happened to businesses anymore they tripled the prices and give you crap food and crap service and still expect tips!..

Hi , my name is Blake I’m a manager at Golden Corral so if you eat out some of you may know me. Obviously I deal with many customer complaints but I’ve never experienced this . Me and my family went to dinner with my dad here for dinner on Christmas Day and half way through the meal my step daughter pulled a finger nail from her mouth . We showed the manager before taking a photo because I was nice enough to give a chance to comp our meal since we weren’t going to finish . Instead the manager quickly discarded the nail and came back from the kitchen claiming nobody had nails in there . None of had nails , plus it was like half a nail . It would have been very hard to miss losing a finger nail that big . They tried to give us two of our meals free , since my dad had paid for us , he gave them the option he pays full price and never comes back , and we leave a review about the finger nail my step daughter could have choked on and how disgusting it is that she had someone’s nail in her mouth , or give us the meal for free . But Mary Christmas to us. It wasn’t right . So I’d be careful here , their cooks don’t seem to care when their nails fall out because there is no way they couldn’t have noticed , and their management really thinks that anyone would cut off their nail for a free meal on Christmas . I have money and a manager a restaurant I would never try to get a free meal if it wasn’t the right thing . So disgusting . I won’t eat here again as a protest of integrity and because I’m worried what else could end up in the food .

We had not been in several years, so my smoking hot girlfriend and I dropped in to give dinner a try. Everything we ordered was very good. We got everything we could at spicy hot levels. And it wasn’t too super spicy. The staff were nice and attentive. They have lots of menu options for vegetarians and vegans. Had a good time. Would come back again.

Great food, large portions, friendly staff. I had the spinach ravioli and it was SO good! My future son-in-law had a mountain of chicken fried rice. Would definitely recommend this place!

The best war wonton soup! Enough to share and have leftovers. When you order take out, they package the broth so the veggies and wontons for the best meal at home! One of the few restaurants in town that offer Chow Fun! And it is wonderful. I had heard they recently changed hands, the store had kind of gotten run down. Pandemic didn’t do downtown Salem any favors. The new owners have cleaned the restaurant up and it’s much better! The chefs are the same. After rediscovering them a few months ago, it has returned to one favorite downtown restaurants. Parking in back makes it easy to get my elderly mom into the restaurant.

This place was something to remember. The booths were extra sticky. The table top stuck to my forearms… all of the condiments, sitting on top of it, were also extra sticky. We ordered crap puffs and a combination D dinner. They brought us egg drop soup and it was very good. My dining partner did ask if he could have hot and sour soup and was told no because that was extra. This was the first time we have visited an Asian restaurant and not been able to have either soup with a combination meal. The crab puffs were big, but they did not have any of that fake crab in them. It was all cream cheese, and zero seasoning. The appetizer plate was fried shrimp and barbecue pork. The fried shrimp was fine but the barbecue pork was dry and tasteless. It was really bad. Next came the Mandarin chicken, which was a delight. It was actually really good, but it was not mandarin at all. It was more of the sweet-and-sour sauce that came with the crab puffs just poured on top. It was a big portion and our favorite thing that was brought to the table. The fried rice was also pretty good. It had big chunks of what looked to be frozen peas and carrots in it and it well seasoned. They brought us something called Cantonese steak and it was 100% not steak I could not physically chew through it, so I cannot tell you how it tasted because it was too tough to eat. There was a vegetable dish that was good. It had normal vegetables, but they were also too big to eat in one bite, and we weren’t given knives to cut these vegetables to eat them. It was also covered in more of that nasty barbecue pork. The service was great. Everybody was really nice. The bathroom was mostly clean, but if you do go and visit, please look up to the ceiling because by the look of their vent, it has not been cleaned in half a century. It was gross. I probably will not return to this restaurant, because there are so many other places that make better food in my opinion. If you’re looking for quantity over quality, however this place gives you a ton of food. There’s not a lot of parking, but there’s a sees candy store next-door if you come out looking for something sweet.

Honestly, I set the bar pretty low for these kind of places, but China House definitely cleared it and we’ll be going again, most likely for takeout. We’ve lived in McMinnville since 2020 and finally tried this place on a recent Sunday afternoon. The decor, outside and inside, definitely needs some work. But that’s pretty typical for ‘family style’ Chinese restaurants in the USA (is it just me or do all these places look like they opened in 1985 and haven’t changed a thing since?). We were seated quickly and offered the usual hot tea. We started with crab puffs and barbecue pork, both above average and freshly made. Our entrées were orange chicken and a spicy beef vegetable dish. Again, both were above average, fresh and tasty. Service was quick and efficient and friendly. After listening to the nonstop racket coming from the bar area, we decided to go there for an after dinner drink. There was a very casual pool tournament happening, and it was fun to watch. The people, both Staff and customers, were very friendly. The beer was a little flat the prices were good, so I’m not complaining… Nice selection of gambling machines, if that’s your thing. Overall, I set the bar pretty low for these types of places, but this is one of the better ones in McMinnville, for sure. Will be going again.

DJ Jenn Jarred really knows how to move throw a good party and a karaoke night. Quite possibly the best karaoke in the area. Super fun and she is super knowledgeable. Loved it. Loved the new remodel and the additional added pool table. Three total now. Great drinks. Great food. Great bartender Tammy and other staff. They have all the oregon lottery games. Full bar. Karaoke that starts after 9pm. I recommend the pot stickers.

Placed order over the phone with a friendly man and paid for it Order was ready when promised Good portion sizes Everything was delicious Ordered hunan beef, vegetable lo mien, sweet & sour pork, fried rice, and steamed rice 🍚 Definitely will visit again!

Food was average, just like every other Chinese restaurant. rice was bland , pork fried rice was dry to and food was ok not worth $40 not going back I'm very disappointed because I love some good Asian food

Nice place kinda big building but cozy booths with lots of room , good friendly service, we went for lunch and ordered the lunch specials so the plates were smaller so were the servings but the food was good the main course mongolian beef was really good but not spicey at all the pork fried rice was a little spongy but tasted good, for the price it was a ok meal with no big complaints . Not too sure if I'll be back with so many other restuants close by but you never know.

Food was just average for a Chinese restaurant sweet and sour pork was dry and steam rice was not steamed lol best thing was the hot tea the pork fried rice was bland not worth $40 never going back it's a shame because I love Asian cuisine

This was our first time here and we were very impressed. It was very clean and well maintained and the waitress was very polite and helpful. We came in right before dinner time, and our food was at our table within minutes after we ordered. The food tasted so fresh and flavorful you can tell they care about the customer's experience. It's an instant favorite for us, and we can't wait to go back.

Today we had dinner at this restaurant. Incredibly delicious food, a wonderful combination of taste in each dish. Got a lot of pleasure from dinner in this place. All very tasty, large portions, reasonable price. I would like to mention the polite and caring staff. Thanks a lot.

The food is always delicious. The menu is huge. Anything you could want, they have on there. Everyone is super friendly. The prices are very reasonable.

Today we decided to try this restaurant. We were so excited for good Chinese food. However our experience was so incredibly disappointing. The Orange Chicken came dry with the sauce on the side. The chicken was over cooked and so crispy you could barely chew it, even when mixed with the sauce. The fried pork rice was burned and tasted burnt as well. The crab wontons were so hard and chewy that we couldn't even eat them. The chicken Lo' Mein was ok. The egg rolls tasted off, like they would make you ill if you kept eating it. We spent over $80 and ended up throwing most of it away. So disappointing. I had hoped for really great food. I don't think we will ever eat here again.
