I knew original owners in the 70s, when Valley Federal Savings was next door where I worked. Best Chinese around. Prices... reasonable and great service not to mention the ambiance. Read more
Nice little place, friendly staff. The food, we order the orange chicken and sweet & sour chicken on the chefs dinner, was... really good. Good appetizers and keep our drinks full. Didn't break the bank. Was an enjoyable dinner. Read more
Came for lunch and we had the lunch special which features a large selection of amazing dishes. Parking is easy as it's in a... large shopping center. The dishes were tasty and well prepared. The server was excellent as she had solid opinions when we askedabout dishes. This is always appreciated, a server that knows and enjoys the menu. The ambiance is wonderful. You will find adimly lit dining room with beautiful wood and Chinese decor. They offer a full bar and generous lunch special. If you loveChinese food you will love this place. Definitely will be back again soon. Read more

When I say we've been coming to this restaurant for years... I mean 15+ years! We started coming when a guy named Roger owned it... and then Margaret and her husband bought it from him. We come here for every special occasion: Mother's day, Father's day,birthdays, anniversaries, etc you name it. They cook genuine Chinese cuisine. Margaret is an amazing chef and everything sheserves us you can tell was made with love. We usually order the same things : chili wontons, steamed fish with ginger/scallions, eggplant with ground pork, extra crispy orange beef, pan fried three flavor noodles, green beans, honey walnut orfried whole shrimp, and sometimes when it's really special.. We get the Peking duck. For some reason I've never left a reviewand maybe that's just because I'm lazy. But Margaret does such an amazing job cooking up the best Chinese cuisine, herrestaurant is always busy! She knows my family and always makes sure she comes to our table to say hi. Sometimes she'll evensend us a freshly made plate of her sesame red bean balls for dessert! I'll always continue to come here because there justisn't any other Chinese restaurant as authentic and delicious as hers in the Ventura County. Read more
Fine chow, truly. Friendly & efficient staff, personable owner. Lunch specials served family style, not squeezed onto one plate... and comes with salad AND choice of soup. I don't enjoy spicy chow so I can't speak for it but the "gringo" rated food waswonderful. There are also several VEGAN selections, not "also-ran after thoughts. (The decor isn't the cheap stuff but intricate& artistic - not something I usually remark about.) Read more
We like to come here when we cant quite figure out what we want for dinner! This is a good place to eat in or take out. The food... is pretty good, the portions are huge and prices are reasonable. I've not had anything that we didn't like. Service is not thebest, but the emoloyees are nice. Read more
