China Inn

It was a Sunday evening when my daughters and I had a craving for Chinese food. I remember passing by this restaurant when I lived in the neighborhood, so decided we'd finally go check it out! It's a cute, cozy family-owned hole in the wall type of restaurant. The young lady at the cashier was attentive and friendly. We ordered the Crab Rangoons, Honey Walnut Prawns and Chicken Chow Mein. It was brought to our table within 10 minutes of placing the order. Food was simple and tasty. I wish there was more cabbage in the chow mein, but overall it was good. When we have a craving for Chinese, we'll definitely return!

Customer service is decent, parking is decent as well. My first time trying it, i ordered for pick up. The portions are small and the price is reasonable. Taste was interesting. Not a place I would recommend.

Solid chinese food for a small little nondescript location on The Alameda. The folks inside are from the east coast and we have that in common. May be why I like ordering from here so much. Always arrives hot and packed well on DD. My go to's are the Kung Pao chicken with its savory spot on traditional Kung Pao sauce and fresh peanuts, to the excellent smokiness of the protein-rich lo mein, which I think they call chow mein on the menu. I crave these long noodles way too much! Also love the chicken and snow peas in white sauce when I want white meat and mushrooms.I wish they made my Mom's tomato and beef stir fry as it would save me a trip back to New York for it, i'm sure. Their eggrolls are really good too, and not the typical filled with pink looking fake pork. They are authentic here and everything I've had including the Mushu appetizer has been delicious and very well worth the price. Good value good food nice service. it's a neighborhood gem!

This is a hole in the wall Chinese restaurant. Great customer service with great food. I really enjoyed it.

It's a small place with about 6 tables and it seems like most people get takeout. But we were given paper menus and ordered the Chef's special fried rice (come with shrimp and BBQ pork) and the Four Seasons dish under the "beef" submenu, which consists of broccoli, zucchini, button mushrooms, and different meats like chicken, beef, and shrimp in a lightly sweet brown sauce.

My original rating upon writing this review was a 4/5 but docking a star since the flavors did not sit well with me when I got home.Super small shop that I was told would be a hit or miss with seating, but they do turn up the heater in the winter you'll be warm no matter where you stand or sit! Parking is super super limited (if any), we did street parking a few blocks down in the neighborhood.My friend recommended the hot and sour soup. It was my first time trying it so I didn't know what to expect - it was interesting and had a nice flavor. Hot and sour, indeed! I loved the addition of bamboo shoots to it.My favorite dish would be the chowmein. I love the choice of noodles they use and how they're cooked.We also ordered the kung pao chicken and another chicken entree that were just okay. They both had A LOT of mushrooms and zucchini so it's vegetable heavy and very appealing to the eye but didn't stick out to me flavor-wise. Almost every dish had the same addition of ingredients so in some way it looked the same.

Super yumm lunch! The lady was so sweet and kind offering suggestions over the phone (before hand) on where to park due to construction outside. The food flavors are so yummy and portions just right! Please support this family owned small business, they survived covid and no doubt they are delicious! Parking semi convenient on the street, located next to jewelers and corner of alameda by some church.

I expected more from this place! I only came to this spot because the Chinese food spot I go to is closed on Monday. First off the flavor was not there the quality was not good either not to mention the portion size for the price. Last time I go here!

Everything smells great and I could see everything being prepped fresh in be kitchen. Promising first impression Ordered takeout. Crab Puffs, candied prawns and white rice. I was disappointed by the food quality.

My husband and I stopped in for lunch last week, for the first time. Very good lunch specials and nice staff. The place is clean and bright, and we look forward to visiting again soon!
