China Delight

I wrote a review a long time ago for a different "China Delight" and just realized it was in the wrong location. The owner/operators have moved three times and I have followed them all over Santa Clara. My favorites are the potstickers, curry chicken and their chow mien is wonderful. They have a lunch menu and I usually substitute the rice for chow mien. Parking can be challenging as the other businesses in the center tend to take up the space but I have been luck each time. During COVID it was our go to takeaway place.

We were at Barnes and Noble but wanted to pick up food on the way home and decided on Chinese and this place came up. Got a lunch special, beef fried rice, Mongolian beef and shrimp. All was delicious except that they gave me a chicken dish instead of the Mongolian beef. The chicken dish, however, was delicious anyway. We would definitely come back when we're in the area.

I ordered takeout, and was told it would be ready for pickup within ten minutes. I got the lemon chicken and salt and pepper pork. Both orders was such a disappointment. They weren't filled up to the top like how other Chinese restaurants typically do. Somehow the meat were tough, dry, and lacked flavor. I barely tasked any lemon from the chicken and any peppers/spices from the pork. Not worth the $14-16/order.

I went from being a loyal customer to never return in one second flat why? I ordered from the lunch menu mind you, 2 entrees and an order of eggrolls, she proceeded to tell me it was $48? I'm like how much is the tax and what am I being charged for. I had the menu in my hand and did the math next to her and she charged me like $10 over.. folks please ask for a receipt and not in Chinese like she proceeded to hand me, the one she gives the cook.It's such a shame because I was championing their food, encouraged and was loyal through a pandemic and followed them to their new locale, for this? Your food is amazing but the service or lack there of is non-existent and what's worse acting like I was a bother for calling out the overcharge.

We've been coming to CD for over 25 years. Only take out now. Overall it's been good but lately they have been serving smaller portions and charging more. I say the kuch special is the way to go, at least the portion size is adequate for the price. We bought 4 items and a side of rice for $80. Love to try a new place. Any suggestions?

Ok, trying to start a tradition of Chinese food on Christmas Eve, however, it failed. The orange shrimp was non-de-script, the pork fried rice, had no vegetables what so ever, and no egg. Way to greasy. The pot stickers, oh my, the wrappers were 1/8 of an inch thick with hardly any filling...never again.

This place was fine - it definitely serves that very Americanized Chinese food. The one thing that we ordered marked "spicy" (the spicy eggplant) wasn't really spicy to me but it was my favorite dish. The Honey Walnut prawns were also really good. I enjoyed the beef chow fun as well.This restaurant is one giant room with lots of good tables for groups, and even on a Friday night, almost no one there! I think they do a lot of take out business. The service was very fast and food came out quickly.I will say parking in this tiny lot is a pain. When I got there, the lot was full and a lot of the spots are marked for other businesses. Not too hard to find nearby street parking but the size of the lot seems inadequate for the selection of shops there.

My family has been coming here for years. Lisa always a beautiful smile to greet us and the food is always on point

Pretty delicious! I love their lunch specials! Only visited once, but it was enough for me to want to try their other food items as well. I ordered their garlic shrimp dish on their lunch special menu and was pleasantly surprised to see that they gave a healthy amount of shrimp and the entire dish was very flavorful. AND, it came with hot & sour soup. Very good and would definitely try other items on their menu.We also had an order of their eggrolls, which was enough to share with another person, and I got some hot tea as well. Their service was great, there was no issue with seating (it was a pretty rainy day), and the food came out pretty quickly, hot, and fresh. Just what I like!Parking is a little tight in the area where the restaurant is, but we didn't have any major issues, just something that I noticed. Definitely worth visiting and checking out if you're looking for inexpensive lunch special deals!

I use to go here all the time with my family when it was 456. Now that China Delight has taken it over the customer service is horrible. Last time I called an order in they hung up on me 3 times. Finally I had to drive there and put my order in.
