Opinions de Oriental Express Shasta Lake
This chinese food is by far the best in the north state! Its the only place I'll buy chinese food.. I live 30min away,, always worth the drive. The portions are extremely generous, gorgeous presentation, pride in creation, and we are never disappointed trying new menu items.. If you're passing through town and have an itch for some flavorful cuisine,, this is your scene.
I've been searching for my go-to restaurants since I got here. Then I learned that people drive from Redding to Shasta Lake for their Chinese food. I cannot believe how much food they cram into the box. It's literally the shape of the box when you open it. They must fill both sides and slam it closed. Theres big chunks of quality vegetables and meat everywhere. This produce is fresh and it shows. It crunches, the celery CRUNCHES! It's soooo delicious. When I first heard about it, I wasnt sure, because they were in a building attached to a gas station. I was like idk bro... but yes, bro. Yes. It's a testament to how good their food tastes. They graduated to a really nice location now, which is here. The new dining room is beautiful with really lovely abalone artwork. It's squeaky clean.
Orange chicken and Beef vegetable mix are good. Yammy!
Definitely delicious! Fresh crisp veggies and meats are tender and succulent. Huge portions. Large menu selections. Prices are amazingly low for the amount and quality of food you receive.

Excellent place to tame your cravings for Chinese food., I ordered chow mein, fried rice, and Kung pao chicken for dinner and it was so yummy. Will definitely recommend it to everyone, plus lady tending the place was nice and the place was clean and in good order. 👍🤩.
Great Chinese food! Their new location is much better and the service is always lightening fast. One of our favorites.
Took my husband here for the 1st time yesterday, and we were both impressed! The staff was friendly and even brought out a cold bottle of water with cups complimentary. The prawns are huge, and their chow mien is near perfection. We will definitely be back!
Thank you. Your the BEST Chinese food in Redding. I am looking forward to me next visit. The portions and taste was amazing! You guys rock!🔥✨
Currently eating some of my girls Special A dinner combo and just gotta say, this place SLAPS. Not only is the price on point (12.47 after tax), but they gave us enough food to feed a small family and it's delicious. Will definitely be back.
Great fresh food for a great price. You really get the full value you pay for. I got a pretty big order for Christmas Eve and it was a fantastic price for everything I got and we had more than enough left over.
Generous portions, great quality, tastes delicious, veggies are fresh and cooked to perfection, not soggy but cooked crisp. Never have I had a meal that disappoints. Prices are very reasonable for what you get. So many delightful choices.
Best Chinese food by far in shasta county. I come here all the time, and have been trying something new a lot of the times. I have yet to have something I don't like. Everything on the menu is great. They are always quick, give huge portions, and are very reasonably priced!
They've moved to a great new space across from where they used to be. The serving sizes are incredible the quality is through the roof. We like to place an order to go and take it with but there's plenty of room in the new shop to dine in. Highly recommended

Delicious food, great price, fast service! They give you lots of food. My order lasts for 2 meals. Clean place, convenient location. Highly recommend!

Wow! The food here was sooo good. They give you a huge amount, and it's very very reasonably priced. Plus, they use no milk/butter so it's very easy to get vegan food here. I'd highly recommend. My only complaint was that they use a lot of styrofoam. I don't usuallylly eat at a place that uses styrofoam, so won't be coming back. But hey, if that doesn't bother you this place is a must.

Food: Not bad at all, but not the best either! It hits the spot for Chinese take out. But was not super flavorful, nor the huge portions that reviews have said it is. The chow mein had barely any chicken or veg. Sesame chicken was good! I liked that it seems to be breast meat. Service: Also not bad. We ordered sesame chicken lunch special to go about a month ago. Got home and realized it was the wrong order and couldn’t just go back to return (We live near Shasta lake but not in Shasta lake). Called and let them know. I had to repeat about 5 times. The guy kept asking what it was we had got. It was some sort of spicy chicken with noodles and veges. but eventually said we could come back for a free replacement sometime and took my number for it. Went back in yesterday for it as we were driving by Shasta Lake, and gave them my number and they had to he info there on their system and already knew what my order was that needed to be replaced without me saying. Got my box in about 10 mins! Not bad because they were kind in action to replace it/make it right, but also felt a bit hard trying to explain and neither that day or when I went back in never apologized for the inconvenience.

Decent food but not for that price, we got a smoothie for 5.99 it was so small and not worth it, we also got a beef Broccoli, the broccoli was so hard and not cooked the rice tasted weird, and they also gave us no forks or napkins. Overall just not a good experience

Positive: Huge portions! Negative: To me the food was lacking in flavor, while it was good I felt it was lacking in savory flavor. (Noodles and rice primarily) We ordered to go and asked for forks. They said of course they could provide those. We didnt think to check before we left. Needless to say we go no forks all, left to eat our food unfortunately with spoons qe could wrangle up at the hotel.

I was extremely disappointed when I ordered fried rice and boba and their was hair in both of them. Didn't even provide any utensils
The food was quite flavorless. We ordered vegetable chow mein, vegetable fried rice, Hunan shrimp, and hot & sour soup, and none of the dishes had much taste. Everything was served in takeout boxes with paper plates and plastic spoons, and the soup was given in a tall plastic container with small plastic cups to pour it into. Even the chili sauce wasn’t good. The restroom also had no soap, and I’m not sure why they don’t use real cutlery or proper serving dishes—it didn’t feel environmentally friendly at all.

I don’t know how this place has these reviews. I ask for a mango tea they gave me a mango smoothie. When I told her I had asked for a mango tea she said it comes blended, lmao. When did that happen, it clearly says in their menu mango tea with or with boba and underneath it it has smoothies. The was not good at all I only ate a bit because I was starving and even then I even caught some allergic reaction since my throat started feeling tight. Not sure what they are cooking with or if they cooked the calamari where they cook the shrimp. I also stated to her I was allergic to shrimp when she offered shrimp. I highly don’t recommend this place! I literally ate a bit of it after my long drive down from Tacoma, WA because I was hungry and already paid $31 and change for it. After I through the rest away which was almost everything and the smoothie as well. When they saw that they just said have a nice day lmao. Whatever! I don’t right much reviews but i needed to write this one!

I've tried this place many times always ordering something different hoping to change my mind but it remains the same. Though the food comes out fast it is always very sub par, vegetables always very undercooked even when asked to cook them longer. They never drain the juices from the wok & it ends up all over inside the bag & EVERYWHERE. The beef is always chewy & grisselley & low quality. Nothing seems authentic what so ever & they are never friendly. Very overpriced & when I am paying $16 + drink + tip for a lunch combo I expect to get what I actually paid for & when I immediately noticed they gave me something else & I very nicely asked them to please correct it I heard a cook in the back make the sound of bringing up a loogey in the back of the throat, didn't hear him actually spit it but it doesn't matter weather it was just a threat or it actually happened. Hard to believe it was just coincidence. I definitely will never be back or support this business ever again.
