China Lounge

Hands down, the BEST Chinese food in the local area. Originally tried through Door Dash (where they have a consistent 2 for 1 deal on their spicy chili wontons, and they're GOOD!), and it quickly became my go to for all Chinese take out orders. I have tried a variety of items on the menu, the stand outs have been: - chili wantons- chow mein - chicken with green peppers [a warning: I'm obsessed with spice, and even I flinched with this one!] - clay pot chicken

We used to visit the Pleasanton location before it closed, and glad to find that it is now closer to home.Ordered the beef jerky for appetizer, spicy chicken wings and pork shoulders as entrees. We also had a bowl of rice and 2 hot waters.I generally don't like tea in Chinese restaurants as I have better tea at home, especially if I have to pay extra for it. Anyway the beef jerky is great and just as dry and spicy as it should be. The leftover will be great with beer and soju. 5 stars *****The chicken wings were as expected, numbing and yummy... just a bit small in portion. 3.5 stars ***The pork shoulder was a disappointment. The menu says it comes with pea sprouts but it actually had broccoli. I love broccoli but I was expecting pea sprouts. Almost 1/3 was skin and fat, the other 3rd was the bone... and the rest actual meat. The sauce was not too tasty... not spicy and I really can't tell what it is. The Dongpo pork shoulder I had had in other places were more of reddish brown sauce, and not this chopped chili version. 1 star for the tenderness of the actual meat part. *The disappointing pork shoulder dragged down the overall rating. The service was okay, we had to ask for water refill... and got cold water instead of hot. The overall ambience was very typical Chinese so don't expect much. Wax it worth the $80+ bill for 2? Not really. But I would get carry out just for the jerky.

Totally enjoyed the food. Was missing an authentic Sichuan restaurant in San Ramon and this fulfills it.Food is tasty and unique and not like the regular americanized Chinese food. Will come back again and again anf try almost their dishesService was top notch and prompt. The ambience and the displaying videos keeps you engaged and interested

This restaurant used to be in Pleasanton. Inside is newly remodeled so still look new wait staff are busy but nice. However, I feel the food quality is not as good compared to what they used to be and no longer the kind of style I was looking for Just personal preference. The reason I give two stars it's just my preference more emphasis on the food. I probably won't go back since there are other options.

China Lounge is hands down the best Sichuan restaurant around. The flavors are bold, authentic, and truly capture the essence of Sichuan cuisine. The fish fillets with pickles were outstanding--perfectly tender, with a rich, tangy, and slightly spicy broth that tasted genuinely authentic.

China Lounge has moved from Pleasanton to San Ramon. I came the second day they opened but wanted to give them time to work out the kinks before reviewing. The menu has progressed from crude printer paper to laminated to QR code. Some food items have been added and deleted.The more specialized Szechuan items are giving way to Americanized items. The lunch menu has expanded. Food is good and at least different from the typical Cantonese cuisine that is most common in this area. Service has definitely improved since first opening and as the familiarity of the menu the servers will be more professional. The interior decor has remained unchanged from I-Shanghai but with the addition of some TVs. Definitely not as fancy as the old Pleasanton location. All in all a welcome addition to San Ramon.

China Lounge opened where I-Shanghai Delight was. Interior basically the same. 3 flatscreens, 3 dining areas...Offerings: Chef's specials, cold appetizers, soups, signature dishes, noodle/rice/dim sum, casseroleDishes, vegetables, lunch specials...Quick service by staff speaking English, Cantonese & Mandarin Chinese. Food ready in 10ish minutes.Bites: cumin lamb (14.95),lunch special-tender fresh slices of lamb sauteed in spicy cumin with jalepenos, onions, red & green peppers, chili pods. Excellent cooking technique..deliz...-freshly steamed white rice went great with sauce.-genuine hot & sour soup with egg flowers with tartness from white vinegar, hotness from black peppers. Good to da last drop..Sips: chrysanthemum tea (1.50)-robust flavor from actual chrysanthemum flowers brewed to order, not from tea bags..5 stars worthy, deliz....large menu..

Come back again for Yummy Chinese spicy food! 火爆豬肝+辣子雞+海鮮豆腐 must order ! Good food and food service

Mapo tofu, Seafood claypot, Kungpao chicken...yum! We were a bit reluctant as we're not big fans of spicy food. They managed to keep all the dishes mild while keeping the Schezuan flavor. Friendly staff, delicious food!

The place is nice and food is delicious! The restaurant serves where we authentic southwestern Chinese dishes. They are different from a typical Cantonese restaurant.
