    This is one of my fav Chinese restaurant. Every time I come to Reno or any where nearby I make sure to visit this restaurant, this time I came with my 3year old. I was so touched my their gesture as we ordered food for two people and some shrimps for my 3 year as she usually eats rice so as their quantity was more than enough I shared my rice with her. But the waiter served separate soup and a small glass of water with a straw so that my kid can drink from it. that touched me a lot. Their service was super fast and I always get calm surrounding. They also have a curb side pick up.

    The egg flower soup has some wonderful flavor! And many bits. Best I've had in quite some time!

    All the other Asian places closed on Sunday? Not this one! And what a treat! Oh how wonderful! A REAL Chinese restaurant! I've been driving past this place for years and wondered about it. Finally went and I'm just gonna say it will be a long time before some of the others get me to come back as this is an EXTENSIVE MENU! Written in English and Chinese, the server and cooks are Chinese and were talking away, in their native tongue, while we ate our meal, an added bonus for the ambiance. I fell in love with the place right off as they bring you water, no straws, and hot tea without you asking! The dishes all match with that red border seen in many Chinese diners. Ok. So. The food!!! Starting with a most flavorful egg flower soup! So tired of others not bringing it with the flavor, this was yummy! I ordered the Shrimp Chow Fun (Chow-He Fen, I'm guessing is the right and proper name of the dish as listed in the menu) we often order this to see if a place is good and WOW! Shrimp was cooked perfectly the Wide rice noodles were perfection and although they receive their noodles on Tuesday they were not sticking together on Sunday! The sauce was so good and I'm guessing it was the best onion in Carson City that night as it was sweet and just right. Tasty! Ray ordered the Sweet and Sour Trio which in this day and age we did not have to ask for rice to accompany it, as most used to do, they just brought it (no extra fee I might add). Chicken, pork and nice big prawns battered and red with sauce, could have licked the plate. Not crowded, no wait at all, Our food was quick and hot. A table of two and then eight came while we dined and it was not noticeably noisy. The chairs may be a newly done upholstery, eggplant and gold, very attractive, comfortable. No booths. Just tables. Oh! And in summer you can eat outside in their patio or anytime you can do drive thru! A VERY happy experience and reasonably priced. Thank you China East for hosting us and making our experience authentic!

    I love this place- mu shu pork and chicken both tried on different days. Excellent! Why?? They take extra care of the vegetables! Singed vegetables are perfect on both. How do do that and they are still crunchy ? Rarely do I dream about leftovers but I did with this. What more could you ask for! Oh free tea ! You get it.

    I have a short layover here in Carson City and I gave my crew the afternoon off cause we just had…read moreto wait for a few things. So, my local friend wanted to take me to this Thai restaurant right down on the main street in downtown, if Carson has an actual downtown that is. We got parking right in front of the place on the main street. Inside is nice and elegant in a Thai kinda way. Nicer than a casual mom and pop Thai joint. We get seated at a nice table near the front. My friend already knows the menu, so I go with hos suggestion for the Lunch special Duck with sauce over rice. It's $22 bucks, so it better be good! He has the Thai battered salmon for around $19. Soup is included and it's just a veggie broth, though tasty. Then our lunch specials come out. Oh wow, that duck look really good. It's totally deboned, so no messing with bones at all. The sauce was super tasty. My friend said he thinks its some sort of duck juice reduction with other added stuff. Whatever, this was one of the most tasty duck dishes I've ever had. His salmon was unique, I never saw a dish like that made with salmon. The coating was very unique and crispy and the salmon not over cooked. Overall, I really liked this place. I think my crew is having lunch at one of the local casinos, I'd rather be here!

    The Basil Restaurant was not on my regular route but it was well worth the detour!…read more To start we had a complementary veggie soup with tofu. Lunch entrees come with a side salad topped with peanut sauce and a delicious wonton cracker. We tried the yellow curry and pad see ew and both were very good. Don't forget to pass through Downtown Carson City for the cutest restaurants and old town charm
