    Signature Crispy Eggplant
    Kim V.

    One of our favorite Go To places for good Chinese food. Some of our favorite dishes are the Cucumber Salad, Dry Pepper Chicken, Crispy Beef, and Signature Crispy Eggplant...though we have had many more that we've enjoyed, too Weekday lunch and Early dinner is usually a short wait to get seated, and service is normally quick once you are.

    Stir fried green beans were great!

    Our family of 5 had lunch here for our very first time, no line at 1pm on a Wednesday. But beware, I've passed by this place a few times during dinner houre and there have been many people waiting to get seated. We ordered their CRUNCHY BEEF. I have not had this anywhere else so I can't compare it to anything else but it was REALLY GOOD..I would say it's pretty much like eating fries, it's that addicting! We also ordered cucumber garlic which was crunchy and refreshing. Orange chicken, green beans, shrimp chowder mean- tasty. Wide menu selection so, yes, you're on the money if you guessed that I will be back.

    Pot Stickers

    Amazing Chinese food! I've been here a few tomes and the sizzling beef is my favorite. It's perfectly cooked and has so much flavor. I also love the pot stickers! I love how they are crispy on the bottom and soft on top. The inside is filled with such flavorful meat. Also, they're huge! The servers are always attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. If you don't know what to order just ask. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the booths are comfortable. Don't forget to check in on yelp ahead of time because there is usually a wait.

    This place was so awesome. The manager helped us cause I wanted to order everything but made sure it was a balance of flavors when I ordered. We tried the pan fried pork buns, honey walnut shrimp, beef noodles, green beans and a can of sweet tea! The complimentary jasmine tea was great too!

    Orange chicken was flavorful and tender

    Great taste with deep flavor. Nice staff but sometimes too many too sarcastic jokes. It was the same waiter as our previous visit and definitely his style. But he should read the room as some in our party didn't take to some of the jokes. Restaurant is clean and service was efficient. Nice decor and ambiance.

    Crispy beef, green beans, white rice, crispy pork, not pictured are the pork buns. Delicious!!

    Great service and DELICIOUS food! Presentation & quality 10/10! I wish this was in LA!

    I don't know why, but when Asian restaurants are in an area of town called "Chinatown," I expected them to be great. The reviews I read about China Mama claim this is a great restaurant. I didn't have that experience. I ordered the Crispy Beef and that was very good, a solid 8/10. However, the server recommended a combination noodle dish that was subpar. I thought it was strange the beef didn't come with a side of rice, so I ordered it. The rice seemed old, I mean days and days old. I also found it strange that the Hot and Sour Soup was neither hot, nor sour, and it didn't have any tofu. Is it just me, or does this soup normally come with tofu?! I'm glad I tried it, but I won't go back.

    Crispy pork 鍋包肉  Kids utensils

    We go here every time we visit Vegas--so roughly every other month! Fried pork (鍋包肉) is a MUST! I'm from northern China, where pretty much every restaurant has this dish. This one is probably the closest to the authentic taste I've had, and it's SO good! The Mapo tofu is also really good. I especially love that they keep it hot--the sauce stays fresh and flavorful the whole time. The beef noodle soup was a surprise! I ordered it for my kids, but ended up eating more than they did. The beef is less fatty, very tender, and easy to chew. Service is great! Everyone is so nice and checks on us multiple times, even though they're always busy. And a big bonus for families: the kids get Peppa Pig bowls, cups, and plates! My kids love it! Personally, I don't think the crispy beef is anything too outstanding, but honestly, all the other dishes we've tried have been great! Definitely one of our must-go restaurants every time we're in Vegas!

    Crispy duck
    Janica M.

    Wow, I don't know why I waited so long to try China Mama! I honestly thought it was just another chain restaurant, but now I understand why it's so popular. The honey walnut shrimp was my favorite sweet, tender, and cooked perfectly. The hot and spicy wontons could've used a bit more flavor, and the sizzling pepper steak was a little too salty for my taste. Everything else we ordered was delicious, though, and I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

    Garlic green beans, and crispy beef together on my plate, a match made in heaven
    Lydia V.

    Popped into China Mama yesterday afternoon. The restaurant is located in the heart of Chinatown in Las Vegas on Spring Mountain Road. I found out they have several locations throughout Las Vegas, including one at the Palace Station Casino. The restaurant was very busy. However, they do have a bar and so I was able to be seated immediately at the bar where they provide full service. The restaurant is nice and has plenty of seating for large and small parties. It is a bit noisy, which cannot be avoided, given the crowd that was in the restaurant. The staff is friendly and they do a great job at clearing the tables and cleaning everything to get it ready for the next guest. The menu has a very good options however it is not as large as you would find in other Chinese restaurants. There are noodle dishes, rice, dishes, and of course, your standard Chinese dishes with chicken, pork, chicken, beef, duck, and lamb. I ordered a cup of hot and sour soup, crispy beef, and garlic green beans. The food was amazing. The dishes are à la carte so you will have to order noodles and rice, even steamed rice separately. My food was delicious. The hot and sour soup was silky and smooth, and had a lot of vegetables, and pork. The crispy beef was delicious, it was crispy yet soft at the same time and had a brown sauce that was not too saucy, and it was not greasy either. The best part of the meal was garlic green beans. From the moment those came out from the kitchen they smelled amazing.... The robust smell of the garlic made me more hungry. I definitely recommend this place. If you are planning to go, it is important that you plan your outing to avoid a long, wait time. And, if you're a party of one or two, you can always walk up to the bar. Enjoy!

    Potstickers
    mich l.

    We (MIL, husband and I) went there 4 days ago for lunch. We waited for 30 min after joining the list. We ordered lobster with ginger and scallions, the taste was good but the portion is very small and the lobster meat is stuck on its shell. Crispy duck was very delicious so as the green beans and potstickers. Mother in law was happy with her lunch, so that was +++. It is a casual setting but I see some people dressed up or dressed down. Plenty of parking but occupied most of the time because the plaza is very popular.

    Ashley F.

    One of my favorite restaurants in Vegas for Chinese food! Favorite dishes are the crispy beef, wok fried cauliflower, and sliced fish fillet with pickled mustard!

    Top left Shrimp, Special Fried Rice, Mushroom Salad, Egg drop Soup! Fantastic!

We didn't end up using the private room and just sat in one of the seats in the main restaurant and it was still a lovely experience. We were impressed with the plates and silverware. So pretty! We ordered: Crispy beef: 10 out of 10 Whole Peking duck: 9 out of 10 (the duck was a little small for the price and when they take the duck back to make your fried rice, I don't believe they use the same duck as the meat was very dry in our fried rice). The duck soup and hot and sour soup were delicious. We really enjoyed the table side experience and the duck wraps. The fried rice was good other than the dry duck pieces. Next time, we would definitely ask them to just leave the whole duck with us and just give us plain fried rice. Green beans: 9 out of 10 (standard.) Mapo tofu: 6 out of 10 (did not like the flavor as much as other restaurants.) Lamb lollipops: 10 out of 10 Seabass clay pot: 6 out of 10 (not worth a price, I've had better.) Old fashioned: too sweet Service was good, and the portions were perfect for six people with six items sharing family style. We all over-ate. Everything was tasty and proteins were cooked perfectly.

It is located in a strip mall with an abundance of convenient parking. Inside, they had nice tables and bench seating and also had a couple of nice sized round tables with lazy Susans for larger families. We arrived around 7:30-ish and it was quiet with one or two other parties dining. Their take-out business appeared to be robust, which was a good sign that they must be doing something right with their offerings. Menu is pretty standard fair. Noodles in broth with beef shank, various dumplings, rice plates and dry noodle dishes. We started with the deep fried spring rolls which were tasty. The wrapping was very thin and delicate and had a nice crunch for each bite. There are six in an order, which is a great value. Wife ordered the Lucky Beef Noodle which has a mildly spicy broth. She asked for half the normal amount of noodles, as she feels that the noodles end up soaking up a lot of broth. I ordered the Beef Soup with Dumplings, which is basically what my wife ordered without the noodles. I wanted noodles added, so they were gracious and added the noodles my wife did not want to my order. The broth was flavorful and mild, not much of a kick. But the pork and cabbage dumplings included in my order were out of this world delicious and paired perfectly with the beef and its broth. I highly recommend this specific dish! If you are in search for Taiwanese food, give them a shot. Good quality, fresh food that is nicely flavored!
