We order the family meal set for $484 for 10 people along with Mongolia beef, walnut prawn and a few other dishes. Food came out fast and hot.

Nothing to standout but adequate.Parking is on the street and neighborhood residential area only.

Reservation was easy to make over the phone and you have to preorder duck ahead of time. We also got pan fried buns, bok choy, and mandarin fish. Dishes are expensive but good quality. I read mixed reviews about the duck but I thought it was great - crispy skin and relatively tender/juicy meat. It is the first time I've seen an extra charge for the duck pancake wrappers; it was not a pleasant surprise but at least they were thin and delicious. We opted to have a soup made from the leftover duck and that was delicious. Service was also pretty good; they even packaged the leftovers for us. Highly recommend for a special occasion or to impress friends but too much of a splurge to go to regularly.

We are huge fans of their sister location, Treasure in Belmont, so we were really excited to try…read moreout Imperial Treasure for dinner. Unfortunately, it just wasn't as good overall as the Belmont spot. The space itself is older, and the seating feels pretty tight and not as comfortable. As for the food, we ordered the Peking duck, which came with a lot of meat, but the duck itself didn't taste fresh at all. It had that distinct, stale "old meat" taste to it, and the texture was completely off and mushy rather than having a nice, fresh bite. The xiao long bao missed the mark too--the wrappers were too thick and the filling wasn't nearly as savory or delicious as what we're used to. Even the basic steamed rice tasted like a cheaper, lower-quality grain. For the other dishes, the stir-fried scallion lamb was way too salty, even though we specifically asked them to go light on the salt, and it lacked that deep umami flavor they get so right at the other location. On the bright side, the Treasure's signature beef honeycomb tripe was actually really good, though the spice level is definitely on the higher side so beware if you're sensitive to heat. For dessert, I finished with the sesame glutinous rice balls in sweet rice wine because it's one of my absolute favorites, but it fell short since there was barely any wine or osmanthus flavor. The service was also pretty lacking throughout the night. They didn't even bother to clear our dirty dinner plates off the tight table after we ordered our dessert, so everything was incredibly cramped. They also completely ignored the rest of our Peking duck instead of proactively asking what we wanted to do with the carcass bones and the remaining meat. We had to specifically flag them down ourselves to ask about it and explain what we wanted done with it, which should really be standard practice for a proper duck service. Compared to the sister restaurant, the execution, environment, and service here just aren't quite there yet.

We enjoyed the Moon Shrimp cake, hot sour soup, sizzling beef with black bean sauce, sautéed green beans and kung pao salmon. They quickly took us in, ordered and served food. You can really taste the delicious wok flavor in their cooking. You. Must. Order. The green beans. They're sooo delicious and you'll instantly be a big fan. Bonus is that they're not spicy so it's perfect for kids. They'll love to eat their veggies after having a bite of this. Parking is confusing, they have a lot behind that's easy to miss. I recommend parking at the end of the block and walk over.

Must check it out; looks dated, but still open so, food should be decent? C1 lunch plate consists of barbecue roast pork fried rice, chicken Chow mien and an egg roll with the sweet sour dipping sauce. All greasy but tasty. Stir fry beef with bitter melon in black bean sauce and white rice that my friend got was healthier and pretty good; she liked it. For dinner at China Wok, another pal and I enjoyed the almost scalding hot Westlake soup to start, and then dug into the house Chow mien, then fish fillet with snow peas. Noodles were great texture with excellent wok hay flava and contained shrimp, pork, chicken, onions and bean sprouts. I really enjoyed the delicate white fish sautéed in opaque sauce with snow peas, carrots and water chestnuts. I found everything very tasty. Service was brusque and adequate at lunch, slightly more welcoming at dinner. Oh and if you need to use the loo, don't expect much. There's a key you take outside.. yup, exit the building, and it's in the rear. Serviceable toilet and sink.. dim lighting makes everything appear dingy. Exactly like oldie gas stations and rest stops. Maybe this building was a fueling station for trucks before someone turned it into China Wok. Still, the Chinese American food here is legit; basic but tastes good. Value, amenities, atmosphere and service, though, could stand to improve. Upping a star just for being a place that has stuck around for some decades and is still standing.

My first time at China Wok in Mountain View…read more We were there around 5:30pm on a Friday. I asked my Yelp Elite friend to suggest a simple, family style Chinese restaurant. So she suggested China Wok. This place has an extensive menu of Americanized-Chinese food. We ordered: - Westlake Soup, $17.95 - Combo Chow Mein, $17.95 - Fish Filet w/ Snow Peas, $18.95 All the food was good and tasty. I thought the portion size for the Chow Mein was a bit small for the price. Service was abrupt and not super friendly. When it was time to pay, you have to step up to the cashier. Notes: - the mens room is outside, in the back of the building. It's not very tidy, and had graffiti on the walls. Key required. - table setting was a fork, napkin, and water. - lots of tables - Mexican food truck doing business in the back parking lot Overall, a fair experience. Would I return? Maybe

I appreciated that they had a parking lot in the back so it was easy to park in the back and run in and grab my food. I liked that the veggie fried rice had more veggies than your typical fried rice, it was filled with zucchini and celery. The chicken chow mein was also pretty good but the chicken quality wasn't quite as high as I'd like, but I admit I'm probably overly picky. Everyone inside the restaurant working there was so nice and friendly, I would absolutely come back for some easy takeout!

It was SO crispy and SO juicy and came out piping hot :) The green beans were also great & I appreciated that it wasn't too oily! The pork xlb was another solid option. The wrapper was thin and the pork and soup were really flavorful. The scallion oil soy sauce noodles were just alright tho. Like the flavor was decent but it didn't have any protein and it was a bit too oily for me so I wouldn't get it again. The pork and vegetable pot stickers were also kinda mid unfortunately. The dough was too thick and the filling was a bit bland. Overall, a really solid spot though, and I'll def be coming back!

We raised our hand for a long time the server said "umm.." then walked away to take water from the back not for us but to refill for others. When she walked passed I told her again we can orders she walked away and deliver food to other table. It is beyond frustrating. We waited for 15 mins before anyone give us water and take our order. The service here is too slow. We got the string beans, kale, both are tasteless and small portion. Never had I feel like it does not taste like anything. The XLB supposedly their speciality', is overrated. Is really nothing special. The worst dish is the hot and sour soup, is not authentic is spicy not sour. I won't be back
