    Pot Stickers
    John L.

    Craving some authentic Chow Mein noodles, so I went to China Delight on Cottle. I can't believe I lived in this area all my life and I have never tried this spot. I loved the look of this restaurant and the customer service was top notch. The Chow Mein definitely satisfied my craving. The pot stickers and sweet sour pork were all cooked to perfection. I loved the bottom crispness of the pot stickers. Chines food can make you feel bloated and be very greasy, but I felt none of that after eating here at China Delight.

    Beef chow fun
    Janelle L.

    Food and ambiance were both great. I was tired and stressed after a long day at Kaiser hospital. We ordered the Wor Wonton soup which was delish! My son ordered the honey walnut chicken which I am usually not a fan of but it was great. We also ordered the Beef Chow fun and the green beans w tofu...the Beef chow fun was good but the green beans w tofu was excellent....even my non veggie loving tween loved them.

    Very cozy restaurant! The staff are friendly and always happy to help with recommendations. Every dish I've tried has been delicious, but my absolute favorite is the prawns with honey walnut. The prawns are huge, and the honey adds the perfect touch of sweetness. I'll definitely be coming back!

    Shrimp With Honey Walnuts
    Nancy C.

    What a great find located in a strip mall. Service was great and so was the food. We were a group of five. We all ordered from the lunch menu which comes with soup, rice or chow mein and the main course. Reasonably priced averaging around $16 per plate. Good portions too. The food tasted fresh and not overcooked or over prepared. Highly recommend if you're in the mood for good Chinese food.

    Honey walnut shrimp and chow mein
    Michael I.

    Hot the honey walnut shrimp with chow mein much special for $18.95. Food came fast and was hot. Flavor was a little bit bland but overall not bad. Service was fast and friendly and there is plenty of parking.

    The Food: The dumplings here are incredibly juicy and…read moreflavorful. A quick tip: eat them fresh in the restaurant! Getting them to-go or taking them home just isn't the same experience--they are best enjoyed hot right out of the kitchen. The Environment: The restaurant itself is very basic and could definitely use a deep clean, especially the floors. If you're looking for a romantic lunch, a date spot, or a sleek environment, you will be disappointed. Final Verdict: I definitely recommend this spot if you want a fast, delicious dumpling fix and don't care much about ambiance. Just lower your expectations for the decor, dine in, and enjoy the food!

    The name does not live up to the hype because they were not serious about customer satisfaction…read morefrom my experience. If you're going to be paying $60-$70 for two people, you would at least expect your food not to be burnt and the staff not be rude! I have been looking forward to going to this place for two years, it was a birthday dinner and I was so disappointed by my experience. I understand that it's downtown San Jose and we came in the evening, so maybe that's just how closing staff is. First off when we were seated, I asked to be moved to a more comfortable's table because the chairs were really uncomfortable for me. The staff seemed irritated and said "I guess" which was the first red flag because it's nerve-racking enough to ask for a special request and to be met with an unprofessional answer like that was disheartening. Secondly, two orders of dumplings came out burnt, which was seriously disappointing. We could barely eat them. We didn't end up finishing them. I brought this up to staff. He told me they weren't burnt and that's just how they are. I know the difference between burnt and browned and these were definitely burnt hard on the bottom and inedible. He begrudgingly told me well "I'm sorry but you'd still would have to pay for another order". I don't think that's fair at all so I said "it's fine were ok" I don't wanna give this company any more of my money anyway if this is how they treat their customers. Lastly, once we were done with our food and paid the check, the man came back to our table and asked us if there was anything he could do for us and how if we enjoyed our meal this felt like a slap in the face after everything I've already asked of him that he refused and denied and being met with a disingenuous offer just felt petty. All in all, I wouldn't go here if you're looking for food that is not burnt Service that is helpful and hospitable. Andexperience that is anything above fast casual dining.

    Not the same Mayflower that I went to growing up but this place did NOT disappoint…read more We were in the mood for dim sum on the way to the T&T grocery store opening and yelp brought us here. We walked in right at opening to a completely empty dining room. Instead of leaving, we browsed the menu and ordered XLB, pot stickers, jelly fish, and pea sprouts (my personal fav) so glad we didn't leave! The XLB are a nice size, with each precious dumpling cradled in its own foil wrapper for maximum soup retention. The potstickers were full of flavor, packed with protein, delicately wrapped, and had the crispiest, golden bottoms! Jelly fish was fresh and the pea sprouts were a hit! The poor owner answering the phones made sure (in all languages) to inform folks calling in that there were a different May Flower than the other place-felt terrible for her but also understood the importance of differentiating right up front. I can only imagine the number of misorders they have probably dealt with. By the time we were done, the dining room was filled with a mix of what seemed like regulars, locals, large groups of families, small groups of friends... this feels like we stumbled upon a tiny hole in the wall restaurant where everyone who has been before just knows the quality and taste they are going to be getting! Highly recommend you check this place out for a dine in or take out order!

    Mayflower was the first Chinese restaurant I visited when I moved to the bayarea. After more than…read more15 years I decided it was time to check them out again. This is one of the handful of American Chinese restaurants that stood the test of time. As is typical of these places, there was an old lady manning the counter and also acting as the server. And as is typical of these places, there was table at the end where they were prepping the fruits and veggies. It's truly remarkable how they are all similar in these ways! We got a couple of dishes and they came out at lightning speed. * Chowmein-3/5- delicious with lots of umami flavor but shockingly greasy. I mean I am used to oily noodles but this one exceeded some limits. *crispy salt and pepper eggplant-3/5- I had a stellar version of this dish at another restaurant in Sunnyvale and was stoked when I saw this on the menu here. Unfortunately it was a poor representation of the dish I loved there. The batter was too much and the dish felt heavy. The hot oil or sauce they had felt old and extremely vinegary as well, I would recommend avoiding it.
