China Delights Reviews
I have only ordered take out here. It was easy, I did it online and was ready when I arrived for pick up. The noodles were nice and chewy and thicker. I would recommend this place and will check out other menu items in the future.
If you're thinking of Chinese food and you live near Pinole, you have to come to China Delights. They offer a lot of authentic Chinese food and all of the items on their menu are good and generous in serving. I've been to this place several times and I finally was able to write a review. They have several tables and chairs for both small and big groups. The service was fast and the orders got to your table quickly. They serve lunch plates for individuals or ala carte for a big gathering We ordered the sizzling rice plate, crispy chicken wings, salt and pepper pork chop, and sauteed spinach on garlic sauce. Our family enjoyed all the items we ordered. The portions are so generous that we have to take home our leftovers. This is definitely a good place to dine for Chinese food around the neighborhood.
Tucked in a shopping center next to the Pinole Safeway, this Chinese restaurant is a decent find! I had a large group order a variety of dishes, and our favorites were the egg flower soup (came with lots of veggies), and the chicken chow fun and chicken with black bean sauce that came with generous portions. Salt and pepper pork chop was okay but I was looking for more garlic and peppers to complement the pork that was a little overcooked. House fried rice was pretty good but needed more meat and seafood. I appreciated our waiter patiently taking our order and suggesting some great dishes like their Mongolian fish fillet that was a perfect lend of savory and spices. Restaurant is old and dated but I almost expect that with this kind of hole-in-the-wall place.
Generous portions & very tasty ! They have a green menu ( you need to request it ) that features specially priced dishes as part of a discounted dinner menu ( choice of 3 soups w/ any 3 dishes for a set price like $38 ! ) There is a smallish banquet room for private parties & a spacious dining room w/ minimal no frills decor. But it's my local go-to for Chinese food !
This is a solid spot to get authentic Chinese! A little hole-in-the wall in the Safeway shopping plaza. We have tried the Westlake beef soup, corn chowder, hom yee fried rice, beef stew, fried fish, and eggplant. Portions are generously sized and not too greasy. You will not be disappointed.
