    Honey walnut shrimp
    Jose R.

    We love this place, hands down one of the best Chinese food restaurants in town. Currently, the place is only open for takeout but it's worth your patronage during this difficult time for local businesses. We have always enjoyed their fresh ingredients, quick service, quality of food, and always willing to make sure we are happy with our order. The place is a relatively hole in the wall compared to other restaurants on Mooney, but once you find it; you'll come back again and again. Thank you for always providing our family with excellent food options!

    Chicken with Black Bean Sauce

    My new favorite Chinese take-out place! The chicken with black bean sauce is really good.

    We took several of our work crew to China Garden last month. They loved it so much , they wanted to go for round 2 ( wise choice ). For appetizers, we ordered Pot Stickers. Pan fried to perfection and filled with pure meat . These were huge and not the bite size portions you get at some restaurants. Of course , we've got to have Tsingtao ( Chinese Beer )along with it. Tonight's dinner consisted of Salt & Peppered Shrimp , Broccoli Beef , Stir Fry Seafood Combination along with Steamed Rice It's all good as we've ordered these plates before. I especially like the Stir Fry Seafood Combination as there's a nice assortment of the Seafood along with Vegetables. With the delicious meal and friendly service , we really enjoyed our visit. My work crew can't wait for me to take them back for round 3 *** Lai , thank you for serving our group *** 12/08/18

    DO NOT GO HERE. if I COULD DO ZERO STAR I WOULD. they put metal piece in my food. Do not I repeat do not go back. Very Unsanitary.

    Don't get me wrong, I love my veggies, but where's the beef.

I ordered a beef dish with peppers and onions, beef was tender, but there were a few extra chewy pieces inside. Gave my jaw a workout! My other family members ordered orange chicken and mandarin chicken. All were filling and satisfying. Loved the meals were still warm when we got home. Wish they came with egg rolls though, that would have been perfect!

It was his favorite Chinese restaurant when he lived in Visalia. I had not been in many years, so I went with him for dinner one evening, and it was good. Not my favorite in this area, but good. The food was really solid. Very delicious, excellent food. We ordered family style, so we got great portions. However, the service when we went was very slow and definitely lacking. We knew exactly what we wanted within about a minute of sitting down, so we did the typical set the menus aside and fold our hands to signal the server that we were ready to order. It took more than 10 minutes before we were able to finally get a waitress to take our order. Not that there weren't waitresses there, they just kept walking by and saying someone else would get back to us to take our order. Our appetizer arrived 25 minutes after we arrived. Yes, it was so noticeable, I WAS paying attention to the times. We started off with the fried chicken wings, spring rolls, and tempura scromp-scromps. They were all good. Again, not my favorite in Visalia, but still quite good. A few minutes later, we got the Beef & Egg flower soup. Now, I love me some egg flour, soup, but then you go and throw some meat in it? Next level. That was definitely better than other Chinese restaurants in Visalia. Our main dishes started arriving at 31 minutes. We got the Orange Chicken, Honey Walnut Scromp-scromps, and Beef with Broccoli. These were all very delicious arguably as good or close to my favorite Chinese restaurants in town. The restaurant was relatively busy when I was there, so I didn't take any inside pics, but the inside is nice. The restaurant seemed clean and the prices were reasonable. It was really the service that we had issue with, and found lacking. It could've been a isolated event, I don't know. Even my brother was disappointed.

    On a recent trip to Visalia, we got the craving for Chinese food and after searching Yelp we…read morediscovered Chinese Kitchen was one of our best local options. The target customer demographic in this area isn't generally Asian, so we tempered our expectations before dining here. We were impressed by the extensive menu offerings and after some deliberation, we settled on the Dinner for Two which started with a Won Ton Soup and fried shrimp and pot stickers as appetizers. The entree included sizzling rice wor bar, Peking pork and pork fried rice (we substituted for pork chow mein). The restaurant was very traditional in closing the meal out with fortune cookies. Our favorite due to its flavor was the Peking pork, and we also enjoyed the fried shrimp, pot stickers and sizzling rice wor bar. The only misses were the Won Ton Soup (we felt the flavor of the broth was not quite right) and the pork chow mein (it arrived lukewarm and lacking in flavor but it was an improvement after dousing it in chili sauce). Chinese Kitchen doesn't appear to be located in the best neighborhood, but it is easy to tell that this establishment has been around for quite some time. The best part of our dining experience was the service. Our greeter and server welcomed us, took our order and checked in on us multiple times. We also had the opportunity to chat with the owner and she is very welcoming and helpful. If you're in Visalia and have a craving for Chinese cuisine, Chinese Kitchen is as good an option as any!

But my friends who recommended it they've came but only for the drinks on the Lum Lums side. Hong Kong is the the food side apparently. So I ordered the Shrimp Fu Yung. I got stir fried shrimp with veggies over a clump of breaded onion. The shrimp was over cooked veggies were fine. The breaded onion seemed like it might have been reheated from a previous unused dish. If it wasn't for the gravy it wouldn't have rehydrated. Wasn't this an Egg Foo Yung dish, instead it was a clump of breaded onions. That's how bad it was. This place was busy but don't know why. The other people I was with ordered lemon chicken, orange chicken, fried rice, fried plain wontons, sweet and sour chicken. They all seem to enjoy it. They received a lot of food. But a lot was taken home as leftovers. My friends are also non-Asian and not a big foodie like me. So take that however you want. It's sad when businesses close but to make a highly traditional dish like egg foo yung terrible, that is a sign.
