China Station has reopened! After a pretty long stint of being closed, they've opened their doors to welcome new and returning customers. During this soft reopening, they're taking in feedback and evaluating how to best serve their customers. Come try!The long awaited visit to China Station has finally come but it is only after they've supposedly changed ownership. We have heard great things about their food, namely their infamous crispy chicken. And as a first time visitor, that's exactly what we got.There was definitely a sticker shock ($14 for 7 pieces) but we figured it was still worth a try. The pieces were medium sized, breaded lightly, and were freshly made to order. We placed an order for the non-spicy, garlic one as well as a separate one for the spicy, chili powder covered variation.The chicken definitely lived up to the hype. The texture was amazingly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The chicken was fried throughly so that even the cartilage was soft enough to crunch through. The seasoning and flavoring was great - not too salty but the non-spicy was accentuated from the fried garlic that topped it and the spicy one had just enough chili powder to tickle your senses but not linger too long and overpower your palate. But at two bucks a piece, it's too steep for a frequent buy but perhaps a guilty pleasure every blue moon or so.The shop is located in a tiny, inconspicuous mall shared by other amazing mom and pop shops serving authentic ethnic cuisine. They do have a dedicated parking lot that is rarely occupied and it's conveniently located near the highway so it's a nice place to come pick up your meal before heading home or to your next potluck event. For those with children, it's also located near a public park so you could perhaps considering including some Chinese food into your busy schedule.Overall, my first impression of China Station was a good one and I look forward to coming back to try their other dishes. The prices may need to be evaluated to stay competitive with similar restaurants nearby. Otherwise as long as the food quality stays consistent and they continue upholding their great reputation while establishing new customers, China Station will do great and can serve their customers for years to come.

Never tried this place but heard they had the best fried chicken game in the bay! Let's just say it was the crunchiest chicken I have ever had in my life, the texture of the skin felt like a fried crab Rangoon. Overall it was a great experience of an soft opening, only disappointing thing was that the chicken was so crunchy I was unable to poke it through with my plastic fork

They're back !!! Those super crunchy, extra yummy fried chicken wings are back !!! This restaurant was closed for quite awhile. It's doing a soft (re-)opening. I tried the Garlic Fried Chicken and a Spicy (requested mild) Fried Chicken. Both were delicious. I heard they have new owners. Very glad the fried chicken is still bomb.

Notify the press! China Station is back!Still soft opening, but they know what's important... spicy fried chicken wings! From what I was told, it is not the same owners, but they are related, so recipe is the same. From what I ate today, it sure tastes the same!Please note that during soft opening, the menu is limited (no party trays yet) and it is cash only!

Today's soft opening. New owner! Reopened under new management. Friendly owners. Place looks the same just clean. New front counters. Tried out the infamous garlic wings to see if it's the same. I'm going to have to say not the same. The crunch factor is there but the taste is not. Also tried the spicy garlic wings. Just a hint of spice and the flavor is also lacking. In my opinion both wings need more flavor.

Second time back since the soft opening which is saying something right? The first couple days it was cash only as they worked out the kinks. Today they accepted credit card. The fried chicken now has two options the garlic fried wings or the spicy fried wings.. the original owners has sold the restaurant as well as the recipes so the recipe is the same... the chicken however is close... but not quite the same. Maybe with time it will get closer to how the original tasted.. at least that is the hope. The inside is more or less the same, there is now a cashier counter and prices have inflated with current times. The a la carte fried wings for 7 pieces is $12.95 and a 20+ minute wait for them to cook. Phone number is still the same if you want to just call it in for pickup. The first time we came the spicy and the garlic were virtually the same except one had jalapeños. The second time we ordered the spicy had a red hue and the spice on it tasted like the spice most boba shops used on popcorn chicken (see pictures). The second time the crunch was better and more similar to the original China station recipe. We'll see with time if it ever gets back to the original taste.

Finally! That's all I need to say. I'm glad this place opened back up because I could not find another fried garlic chicken wing like this.

The crispy garlic chicken still hits. It has the perfect amount of crunch but I will say it's not as garlic-y as it used to be. The chicken pieces are fat so I did like that. It was cooked well too, not dry!The service is great, I was able to phone order ahead of time. Price wasn't bad $20ish for the small wings & rice. I'd come back if I'm craving it. Maybe I'll ask for extra garlic next time.

The chicken wings are amazing, my fifth time coming back for them! There is a new flavor called the Mandarin Chicken, sweetish spicy flavored. Has a sugar coat glazed over spicy wings, very crunchy and tender. Try out the Mandarin Chicken!
