The food is good, not great. Expensive They never get the to go order right. We order the same thing and every time they forget the steamed rice. When I place the order on line it asks if I want steamed rice or fried rice. The egg flower soup was very bland and the fried rice was dry and crunchy. I think it will be a long while before I order again. Dropping $100 on mediocre food is not something I want to do again. read more

Lemon chicken, orange chicken and walnut shrimp with a side of ribs and special fried rice was on point with boasting flavor and serving sizes to share. This place took 2026 restaurant of the year and I can say you will not be disappointed after you try it. Staff is cordial and friendly along with a great atmosphere to sit for a while and chat. If we are lucky enough to travel again through Paso we will most likely have to stop for a delicious meal. read more

This was the second time we've ordered for pickup.. the food is alright but I find its veggies and pineapple ( sweet and sour chicken) were all hard.... a little more sauté time was definitely needed. The service is quick and easy. The restaurant is charming and I am going to try dining in to see if it makes a difference. read more

Really really hoping the food is extremely good because the prices on their online menu (mind you, from 8 years ago) aren't accurate at all and I was way over charged more than I expected, so REALLY hoping the food is amazing otherwise I'd never come back or suggest this place to anyone. It looks shady not having your prices accurate on yelp, your website or your menu. Hella disappointed especially because they were rude on the phone as well. First time trying this place, not impressed at all. read more

China Gourmet Restaurant - Delicious twice cooked pork. - Chinese Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Have eaten here a few times over the past couple of years. And never super impressed. Popped in today because I was starving and there was nothing else in the area. The plus is it's very fast. They have lunch specials that are somewhat affordable. But the quality of the food is not great. And it just doesn't resemble Chinese food to me. Granted I have eaten Chinese food in Singapore, New York, San Francisco, and Vancouver. Well, this seems to be owned and operated by Chinese people, they are either catering too much to the local population or they have lost their passion for food. read more

The food was delicious but expensive so we can't afford to go as often as we'd like. We have ordered the war wonton soup, fried rice, and sweet and sour chicken. read more

The owner is nice. The establishment is clean. The pricing is a little heavy for children over 5. The food is ok.... Sometimes there are dishes that have been sitting out awhile (but it's a buffet.. soooo.). Not my first choice in Pas Robles but I've had worse. read more

A total hidden gem, don't let the location fool you. Everything we tried was fantastic, and came out quickly (and super hot). I really loved the egg roll in particular! Really glad we ventured away from the square in Paso, it was totally worth it read more

Honestly, good overall service and food. The interior of the restaurant is amazing (conflicting with the outside). I try different things on the menu each time and they haven't missed. However though, the prices are VERY expensive and I expect a dig in my wallet every time I go. Authentic chinese food though, best I can get near SLO read more

Four of us went there for dinner, we ordered the wor wonton soup for 3 people since one of the people in our party is a vegetarian and it has meat in it. There were only 5 small wontons plus some meat, shrimp and vegetables. On the menu it is $18.95, yet they charged me $25.95. When I questioned the charge, they said because it's for 3. The large soup says for 3 - 4 people on almost every Chinese restaurant menu I've ever been to. I have never been extra on a large soup for a 3rd person. We ordered salt & pepper calamari and had to send it back as it was very undercooked. The "recooked" one was barely more cooked than the first. The service was very good, but the undercooked food and extra charge on the soup will keep me from going back again. Too bad, as it used to be one of my favorite Chinese restaurants on the Central Coast. read more

China Gourmet, located in Paso Robles, serves Chinese food with really fancy, upscale dining. They have an extensive wine wall with an incredible amount of local wine available! Their Chinese food is one of the best around, in my opinion. Everything we order is always fresh, super hot and absolutely delicious! My husband and I usually order chicken chow mein, orange chicken, sizzling black pepper steak and crab rangoon - Amazing!!! Only thing to note is that they are quite pricey (probably due to the fact that if you dine in it is quite fancy). We usually only order to-go/for pick up, so the price is a little steep since we're not staying in dine in, but, it's worth it in our opinion as good Chinese food is hard to come by in this area! Highly recommend if you're looking for really delicious Chinese food that never disappoints! read more

Ordered walnut prawns, sweet n sour chicken, orange chicken, beef Lo mein noodles and pot stickers to go. Everything was delicious this time and we all shared the entrees. Took off 1 star as they did not include rice and I did not think to check the big sealed bag when I picked it up. Food was very good so will be back and be sure we get rice! read more

Excellent Chinese food! The appetizer war wonton soup.. the chicken broth was rich and flavorful.. I think they cooked the broth for hours! The black pepper steak.. the beef was melt in your mouth tender!! We came from Anaheim Ca to spend 5 days in Pismo Beach and we stopped at Dover Canyon winery in Paso Robles to pick up my favorite bottles of wine, Cujo Zinfandel. We had a taste for Chinese food and this was the best reference and yes it was truly the best! read more

China Gourmet Restaurant - Kung Pao Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Paso Robles, California

My son and two grandsons had dinner there tonight and it was excellent! The food and service was outstanding and being a Cabernet connoisseur was so impressed with their wine selection. I choose their Ming's Well 2017 Cab and it was excellent. Jack, the owner, came over and discussed the wine's history which was very informative. Will definitely be going back! read more

I am baffled by the good reviews...tried it twice and both times could not finish it. Tasteless and nothing fresh in it. Absolute mall food. read more

We haven't tried any Chinese food in Paso yet and this was our first stop! We wanted a cozy night in so we ordered for pick up and I wish we would have sat for dinner! The place looked amazing, the fish tank right when you walk in was so fun! They have a whole wall of wine to choose from and lots of dining area. Our food was great but we will definitely be eating in person the next time we are craving Chinese food. read more

China Gourmet is surprisingly, very nice inside highlighted by an enormous wine fridge, who knew? Located in the Albertson's/CVS center on Niblick, it's a convenient location next to my local UPS store and Dry Cleaners. I went for lunch, and the place was packed. Great menu, full of delicacies. The prices are on the higher side, but they have lots of lunch specials well-priced at right around $15. Sweet! I went with one of their lunch specials, Hunan Pork. It came with a choice of soup, white or fried rice or chow mein, along with salad, an egg roll, a fried pork wonton. It was a very nice portion, and I ate it all up. With that said, it's not great as compared to LA or the Bay area, but it's really all we got in Paso. So, it's delish. Nice, efficient, but all business service. I'll be back. read more

Food is always delicious and service is prompt and very courteous. Best Chinese food on the central coast. Highly recommend!

Highly disappointed. First time in town, I ordered fried rice with beef and requested no veggies. That's about the only thing that went right with my order. I ordered take out and got no utensils which I don't quite understand considering it's take out. My beef was all fat and looked undercooked. Rice had no flavor. And personally the portions weren't adding up to the price. It came out to around $20 (normal side portion). Now I have to go find food elsewhere for the night. read more

If you like cornstarch and gristle on your beef, this is the place for you. Oh and add an arrogant waiter for good measure. We came into town for the day to visit the local Mid-State Fair and should have stayed away from this strip mall Chinese restaurant...with its missing neon signage (letters missing from their sign for China Gourmet). Upscale decor inside and yummy rice, did not make up for the poor quality food. Such slimy beef in a dirty strip mall! Ugh. read more

I am going to say that this place has come a long long way. I didn't like it much the first few times I went there many years ago. I went so far as to drive down to Pismo for good Chinese food. We decided to give this place another try after probably 10 years. Since, we have been there several more times. The prices are pretty high but the food has been just fantastic. The service has been excellent and the atmosphere is that of a high class joint. VERY nicely done. This place is worth the stop and I recommend it. BEST Chinese food in the North County. read more

The food takes me back to my New York roots. So delicious every time. The wine list is amazing as well.

Dinner last night, chose the #A, Happy. Started with the HOT and Sour soup, superb. Then the appetizer of an Egg Roll, Shrimp and a Wonton on a bed of cabbage served with sweet and sour sauce and a hot mustard. Perfectly fried and delicious. Entree was Pork Chow Mein with Fried Vegetable Rice and shared that with the other person's Lemon Chicken. Was quite a great "Happy Meal". This is the best in North County unless someone can recommend another place to give a try to. read more
