In true NFL form this place uses TOO MUCH SAUCE! Both my Kung POW and Sizzling Chicken were drowning in sauce. The fried shrimp was not seasoned. The Chicken fried rice looked as if someone just tossed some soy sauce in it and the chicken wasn’t seasoned. The whole meal was overpriced also. Needless to say I would not recommend coming to this place and to boot they didn’t get the order right.
We had ordered delivery on a few occasions before, and decided to go there and pick up some food for a change. It's in a quaint mini mall in downtown La Mesa. The atmosphere is subtle but gracious and walls and cabinets are covered with antique asian furnishings that give it personality. You want to look! The food is great and the prices are reasonable. Service is good and usually fast. We'll be keeping Chopsticks for years to come.
It was my 1st time here today and I will be back. Food tasted great. Huge many page menu. I look forward to trying many of the other dishes. Many items for meat eaters and vegitarians. Sodas are sold by the can only, FYI. Nice environment. 2 dining rooms, but only 1 used tonight. Sat immediately. Served fast. Friendly. Seems to be a popular place.
Took daughter in law for belated birthday dinner! Food was excellent as always even got son to try new Chinese dish he liked it! They gave us free soup as it would take time to fix all the different dishes we wanted. Excellent service this place always gives a great dining experience.
I'm sorry to report that the food was less than mediocre. I hadn't eaten here in a few years and it was a disappointment. Egg rolls and fried shrimp were frozen and overcooked. The steamed rice wasn't even fresh. We ordered cream cheese wontons, my daughters favorite. They didn't bring them. Go figure. The service wasn't what I remember either. We had a less than satisfactory experience. Sad to say. My daughter commented that "Panda Express is better." I don't eat there and I will not go back to Chopsticks. Good eating to you all.
Great little place with a charming Chinese decor. Very friendly staff and willing to explain anything on their very extensive menu. The items we ordered were all very fresh and so delicious. We ordered the wonton soup and hot and sour soup. Both perfect in texture and flavor. We also ordered a plate of pork dumplings and a plate of vegetable dumplings. Both tasted so fresh, although I personally prefer the pork, which had plenty of flavor.Prices were moderate, but reasonable. This was our 1st visit and a pleasant experience.
Best Chinese food ever. Great staff. Clean
Been coming here for 9 years nothing has changed everything is excellent. From the minute you walk in the door your greeted with a smile super comfy booths. Food is excellent as well as the friendly service! I highly recomend for a quick lunch or layed back dine in expierience!
Went here for a date a few weeks back. Food was well below what I expected for other reviews.. Steam white rice was even old and stale. Service was and it seems they have a good group of staff. Just wish food was at same level of their service.
I don't know where all the good reviews came from, but the food I just had was pretty bad. Yakisoba noodles were boiled way too long before frying. They were super soggy and mushy. The taste was super bland and not good. Crispy pan fried noodles were soggy and not crispy, and the taste was indescribable, I really don't have a word for it. I took a couple of bites and threw it in the trash. Even the char siu bao wasn't right, the bun part tasted weird, and the filling had no flavor. Everything I ordered was bad. They got two stars because the noodle dishes were loaded with meat, but they need to be seasoned and cooked properly. Somebody really needs to be tasting the food before serving it. It's pretty bad. The other negative reviews were spot on about the food and soggy noodles. Perhaps they have more than one cook and I just got the bad one today. I don't know I won't eat there again to find out.
