“ Best Chinese food in the inland empire!! Friendly clean and always fresh, your order is prepared when you order ”
“ Food portions are generous. They are always so nice when taking our order. the takeout packaging is always efficient, never missing items or have unnecessary spills. ”
“ Wow, was not expecting that. After trying all the local places I had lost hope . Even the place in Temecula people rave about was just fair So I didn't have much hope but this is close by and I was hungry Hands down best Chinese in the area and best I've had in a while . So happy Got the Hot and Sour soup and it was good and spicy. Volcano shrimp was super and Mongolian beef delicious . Could not be more pleased Portions are huge and prices fantastic This is my place now ”
“ Excellent food. Everything was cooked up fresh upon ordering. Chicken and beef were delicious. Not the pink slime or the cut up leftover parts you get other places. Huge portions. Lots of extras included with the meal. Friendly, fast service. Good prices. Do yourself a favor and try this place. ”
“ Heading back to Riverside from San Diego we stopped here to grab some lunch and it didn't disappoint! You order at the counter and they bring everything to your table! Big take out business while we were there eating! The amounts were huge and we have enough for dinner and then some! The food is fresh and you can see it being made in the woks be the counter in the kitchen! The lobby is very simple nothing special! You go for the food!! ”
“ Because it's in an unassuming strip mall I had mid hopes for this restaurant. We stopped in and immediately could smell the fried rice cooking and I knew this place would be legit. We decided to order the family meal. There was a ton of food and easily fed 5 of us. Really solid take out. For me the fried rice is the best in the valley. Really decent prices, nice staff and clean establishment. Food was ready in 10 mins and piping hot. ”
“ Okay I have been on the hunt to find the PERFECT cream cheese wontons and today I came across the best wontons yet!! I devoured them so fast that I didn't take a picture! They are made to order fresh and have the best balance between sweet and creamy! The actual wonton wraps were perfectly cooked and tasted more like they were air fried rather than deep fried. I also ordered the vegetable chow mein and it was good. There are A LOT of fresh veggies included. The noodles seemed like they were shredded a bit but don't let that deter you from trying! ”
“ Went again today and had the Mongolian beef and it was fantastic! I asked them to make it spicy and it was the perfect heat for me. The noodles and fried rice were fresh and delicious. I had enough for dinner! I love that they make it fresh as you order. Can't wait to go back again! ”
“ Good quantities of food. Ordered lunch special orange chicken- worth the short wait. Came out piping hot and it was delicious. Egg roll is good and not mushy inside. Egg drop soup was tasty but looked unfortunately unappealing and unappetizing due to added food coloration. First time here... this will be a good go too ”
“ This place is a gem!!! So glad we found this place! Apparently they've been around the area for 6 years now. We were looking for Chinese food that's not necessarily for to-go but wasn't looking for anything fancy either, and boy oh boy are we glad to have found So China Restaurant! There were plenty of parking the plaza is huge and can accomodate. The place itself has no frills. Bare minimun decor with their green walls. There is a counter where you order food and large print menu on the wall. They also have brochures for menu too. Other than that, there are only 3-4 tables and a line of chairs for people who are waiting for their food. We ordered the orange beef and salt and pepper pork chops, both came with rice. While we were waiting for the food, we received a surprisingly nice and crunchy appetizer. It was crispy wonton skin with sweet and sour sauce. It was delicious! Not long after, the food came out; they make these fresh so it does take a bit of time. The wait was definitely worth it! They gave us paper plates and utensils to enjoy the meal. The honey beef is amazing! it was perfectly coated in the orange sauce and it was still crispy and so delicious with rice! The salt and pepper pork chops were deep fried perfection! it was coated perfectly in crunchy breading and small pieces of spices and garlic. The portion is more than fair considering the price. And of course they don't mess with the flavors either. This is what we've been looking for this whole time! We don't need too much frills and all that. just plain old good Chinese food. It was so comforting and satisfying, We couldn't finish everything so we took a good portion home for tomorrow's lunch. They don't have free water here, not sure if maybe their beverage machine was out of order and they don't want to serve tap water? You can get either bottled water or soda or arizona tea. Overall, great tasting food that reminds us of childhood. Definitely will bring the family back here to enjoy more of the delicacies offered. They also offer delivery! ”
