China House

Called the night before to order the duck. We got there about 10 minutes earlier than we said we would pick it up and they were already cutting it up for us. They are very friendly there. The duck was perfect. Good to know I don't have to drive to San Jose or Oakland to get one now!

I’ve been coming here for the past year and a half with my friends. The workers are very friendly and accommodating. The workers speak Chinese and many students come here to practice their Chinese.

Amazing food and very friendly, only thing missing was a buffet that the internet showed.

Food great Service is quick Very good for its price

Good chinese food! visiting monterey, walking from our hotel when we saw this place! good service too

Foods was very tasty original taste really recommend it

The food is very good and it is ready super fast! I was surprised when I went to use the bathroom and the food was already on the table! Also, the server is very nice. I could tell the customers were very happy and joking around. It was a nice atmosphere!

There was only one lady serving the whole restaurant and she was fast 😅 The food was wow and amazing! Food portions are huge and very flavorful fresh from the wok. Got the Wonton Noodle Soup, Mongolian Beef and Spicy Pork Belly -> 9.5 out of 10 👌

First of all, I just wanna say one word!! 🔥Fire 🔥 ... Every time we vacation in Monterey, ca. This is the spot where we get our bestest Chinese food.. Honestly, u need to try both the sweet and sour chicken or pork. u won't regret it 😋 The house chowmein has shrimp, chicken veggies 😋 again 🔥fire!!.. The chicken wings are fresh and so delish.. We also love the beef fried rice 😝. Remember to request plates and forks and soy sauce .. The cashier was so friendly and welcomed us with a greeting and a big 😀 smile..We will return 😀..

Delicious, friendly and affordable! I’ve been to this wonderful spot many times over the years and I’ve always enjoyed the delicious food and welcoming staff. I highly recommend the salt and pepper calamari as well as the chow mein! It’s wonderful.

Fantastic authentic and very welcoming and warm atmosphere.

AMAZING! I have come here twice now while on business and both times the service and food was excellent! I love that they bring you soup and tea to start with at no charge. I have had bother the chicken and vegetables and the beef and vegetables. Both were hot and fresh and are the best ibe tasted. Great place for fresh cooked food!

The service and food were great.👍 It highly recommends this place. The food was served very quickly. The seafood noodle soup and sweet and sour pork were delicious.😋 Also, the server was very friendly.

I was on a weekend trip in Monterey and was very excited to find out they have authentic cuisine from home, northeast of China. Strongly recommend if you want real Chinese food. Order from the Chinese menu on the wall.

The spicy fish was simply heavenly divine. Could eat this over rice all day. Had a great birthday dinner here with friends. Friendly vibe, excellent service, and we shared all the fabulous food family style. Will return!

The food here is delicious and the service is great! The owner kept coming back to check on us to make sure we’re happy with our food. We just moved here to Monterey and will be making this a regular spot! Everything we tried was delicious!

I thought it was a bit expensive for take out but when I got home it was the best food I have ever picked up and am really excited to try new items in store since the take out was so good. It was also extremely easy to just call in and order they let me pay when I picked it up. I ended up taking a printed menu home since they offer them!

Ordered a pickup and got exactly what I wanted. Food was delicious and service was excellent. Unfortunately the pricing is insanely high but that's just all restaurants now. Would 100% recommend. New go to spot.

Great Chinese food and I haven’t had good food like that in a while. I was greeted at the door and the server was very nice and welcoming. Everything was straight to the point and I didn’t have to wait more than 15 minutes for my food. Mt food was hot and ready to eat. Would comeback on my next visit to Monterrey.

My husband and I have been looking for a good Chinese restaurant since we moved here. We are very excited that we finally have! Tasty food and great service. We will definitely return here.

Service was great, even with our group and splitting checks. Lights, music, and decor were fun. Everything tasted good and came out quickly. Nothing to improve!

Great service. Food came out very quickly and the waiter was very nice. I highly recommend getting the wanton soup.

The food was really tasty and the staff is friendly. The lady that takes your order is friendly and tries to make people laugh, but she might pressure you to finish the food. Other than, an overall great experience at this restaurant!

I came in with 3 co-workers when we were in town for an industry trade show/festival. Most of the other restaurants around us were crowded and had 20+ minute waits. But we walked in here and we were warmly greeted and seated immediately. Service was friendly and the food was good. 1 star away from being perfect because while my dish (shrimp with spicy garlic sauce) tasted great, the texture of the shrimp was a little off. Kind of chewy and not like high quality shrimp I've had at other places.

Got to town for the first night of our four day mini vaca in Monterey and found the China Garden just down the street from our hotel. The place is pretty big with plenty of nice sized booths and tables, and set up nicely with a variety or Asian decor. The hostess/waitress was friendly and attentive and sat us quickly, gave us menus and asked for our drink order. The menu was pretty diverse with plenty to chose from, so if you like Chinese food at all you should be able to find something you'll like. Everything from the appetizer to the fortune cookie at the end was pretty good and we enjoyed our visit to China Garden

The sizzling rice soup is our go to. We enjoyed the fried rice and general chicken. Looking forward to trying more of the menu. We now tried salt and pepper calamari and chicken chow mein. Chow mein could maybe have a bit more veggies and be perfect. We now tried the beef chow mein and spinach and garlic. Both are great and they go well together. The spinach is almost too much for two people, very good serving.

Pretty good food (I especially like the pot stickers). The lady up front is always nice (When I go in she helps me speak Chinese). Sometimes doesn't make the spicy food spicy enough but all you have to do is let them know you want it extra spicy. I only wish it was a little more affordable.

0.5 stars extra for the amazing service and the wonderful servers! We came here around 6:30 pm on a Sat evening. Pretty empty so got seated immediately. The server had several recommendations when we asked and we ended up going with some of her favorites. We got the kung Pao shrimp, the twice baked pork, chicken chow mein and the crab meat and cheese puffs. Food was served very quickly, and was pipping hot! The puffs were very good, I love mine with the schezwan sauce but also liked to have them with the duck sauce they provided. We asked for the shrimp to be made extra spicy. I loved the extra spicy but it did overpower the other flavors in the dish. Should've stuck to regular spice. The pork was very good, and I are quite a bit of it. I was really full by the time I got to the chow mein so I only had a taste and it was good too!! We couldn't finish so we've boxed it up and plan to eat it on our journey back home. The tea was excellent and very soothing. This was a good meal but the highlight was the friendly staffers and their quick service. Impressed!!

Found this place when our first choice was already closed. Decor is a bit well worn, but very clean. Our server was disinfecting tables when we walked in. Our server was very nice. Food came out VERY quick! Like fresh out the wok in five minutes quick. Food was good, but not outstanding for the price.

Really kind staff. Charming, cosy atmosphère. Food was good, what you’d expect of better American-style Chinese restaurants. The big bowls of soup are delicious.

Good food but small portions. Fast service but felt a bit rushed, like they wanted us out of their restaurant as quick as possible. There was still sauce on the serving plate that would have been nice to have on some of our remaining dishes, but alas, she rushed to take it away.

I’m always in search of a great orange chicken dinner. The first time I ordered it after talking to them on the phone it came in all white meat chicken and was given extra orange glaze on the side as I ordered online. I thought it was great so I re-ordered a few weeks later. When I ordered again, the exact same thing,, it came in dark and white meat, and the sauce they gave me on the side was sesame sauce not orange glaze. This was after them not giving me any extra on the side as my note on my order clearly stated. I walked back in and asked the lady about the two little cups of sauce and the lady swore to me it was orange glaze. It was not. I was very pleased after the first order. I was very disappointed after this second. I guess I’ll move on.

On WiFi I tried ordering, then asked for phone number to send the code, then took 10 minutes to actually send, then said I entered too many times, then was too late and the system wouldn’t let me enter a code at all. I definitely suggest using a different ordering system. I lost all motivation to order from here.

Hi! We have diner in your restaurant october 22th. We have order schrimp noodles, beef sichuan style and a beer. It was around 42$. Now I have a message from my bank saying that the amount changes to 48,71$. Could you explain us why this change? Could you modify it again and charge the fair and correct amount, please? Thanks

The worst experience I have seen. The lady was very impatient when wait us. She charged 2 for 2 cup of water without advanced notice. Okay, that’s fine for me. The bill was 31.57 after tax. Then she swiped my credit card for 34.57. I thought the tips was included so I walked away without further tips.The lady yelled at me. We had argument. She cursed us with unacceptable words. I never seen such terrible behavior in my life. Stay away!

The service attitude is very poor, the taste is not delicious, and it is not authentic.People who want to see it should not come to this store for dinner in the future.

The truth to start with the food is a total disaster the wonton soup has no flavor and then for the price it is a lot and the owner still charged me for the soup that was not tasty at all in my experience I do not return and I do not recommend it

Do not go here! The worst Chinese food I've ever had. Minimal effort and no love. No wonder it was totally empty at lunch time. Lunch specials to not include anything but rice. Panda Express is better and a cheaper price. I want to support the small guy, but you have to be better or at least try.

If I could give this place a zero I would, but google does not allow me to. The overprized piece of crap chinese food.They charge 120 for 4 items, changed me for sauce. Food was cold and half of the food was very salty, were you couldn't eat it, and the rest was unseasoned like you're feeding someone at the hospital. Try to contacted him and they kept screaming my calls. They knew what they had done, but yet they never bothered to make things, right? So their place I would never, ever recommend work, come back.

From my taste, the food here is not authentic Chinese cuisine. It tastes like a sweet, American-Chinese fusion style, which was disappointing. The soup I ordered was mostly water with very few ingredients, especially considering the price. The service was also poor. The woman seemed uninterested in helping and ignored customers, which made the experience uncomfortable. Overall, it was not a good dining experience, and I won’t be returning!
