This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in the Roseville/ Rocklin area. Ever since the Chinese restaurant that I use to go to closed down over 10 years age I have been searching for a deficient replacement without any luck. Then after reading a few reviews on CV I decided to give them a try. Well for my family our search is over. The reason is because the food actually tastes like Chinese food. It has flavor and tastes good. Are there better restaurants out there for Chinese food, probably but I am not driving to the Bay area to find them. Try CV you won't be disappointed.
We went there 2 days ago. We had the lunch special sweet and sour shrimp, rice etc, Ordered 1 large Hot and Spicy soup to go! The food was DELICIOUS! I wish I could afford to eat here Everyday. . My guest from Arizona was very satisfied with the food.
Extensive menu. How about expensive menu. The honey walnut shrimp for the cost a very small portion. At most restaurants 3 times the size at half the price, the portion at Panda Express 4 times as much.(Just to give you a reference), menu states $17.00 but at $20+ I guess takeout is more (huh) you can keep it. We ordered several items enough for a little left overs. the lemon chicken was horrible the worst. The orange chicken good but a lot of fillers as in oranges and orange peels. The egg rolls expensive double the price of any restaurant I’ve been to and horrible. The fried rice big portion and ok. We came from the Bay Area where there are exceptional Chinese restaurants. So we read a few reviews, I was expecting a good experience. I get prices go up. But Panda Express was 100% better than this garbage they served. We did the take out. $137.00 for a normal $60-$80 anywhere else. The fortune cookies where stale and to thick, the crab fried wontons were soggy and poorly made. Ok I’ll stop. I will never waste my time or money ordering food from here. Oh yeah the next day I ate a bit of that big portion mixed fried rice left over. Now I know why it must of been the last of it. because I immediately became sick, throwing up and the other end the d word all day and night. Oh and asked for extra hot mustard well they didn’t put it in the order in the first place. We received the rolling of the eyes. So bad food and bad attitudes Maybe we just hit a bad day. But for me you get one shot at $137,00 expense garbage with attitude. Never again. Take your chances. I wouldn’t.
We ordered the Szechuan Dinner for two and was somewhat disappointed. First, the Chow Mein has no life into it. The flavor was missing though it’s just a simple dish. We told the gentleman to hold the veggies because we knew it would be a lot, he told us that it would be less than usual, came out to be a whole handful of veggies instead. So my son didn’t enjoy that. Egg rolls were burnt and fell apart easily. The Szechuan Chicken was beyond oily. Taking it out from the bag was like playing in olive oil. It’s hard to enjoy the dish when you can taste nothing but the sauce. Almost made my arteries squeeze as I speak. Wontons were the only thing that was decent.
The food was good,but better to eat the next day. I was disappointed when I ordered the mongilian beef expecting it to be spicy and was not at all spicy. Not even a touch of mild. brought most of it home and touched it up myself.
Pretty delicious. We’ve been coming here for decades. The food is always good, and I would give it five stars if they were a little more flexible. They aren’t inexpensive, and yet we always seem to have to either pay more for individual plates or end up wasting a couple things no one will eat. The service is fine, not warm and friendly, but adequate. You’ll be treated respectfully.
Staff is super nice and provided great service. Food is very delicious and tasty.

Always enjoyed the food and atmosphere pre pandemic. Still haven't opened their dinning room up completely. Prices have gone WAY up. Still great food, but the enjoyment has diminished.
Good food. Fast service. Friendly staff.
