    General Tso Chicken, Lunch special portion
    Cesar D.

    Chinatown Restaurant was on my list of local restaurants to visit, this week I was in the area and dropped by during lunch time, the few other times that I have attempted to visit they were so busy that I could not take the time to wait. Today I did not have any wait time at all, as you walk up to the Restaurant is it nestled within a shopping plaza with many other asian style restaurants, its right across from the Geico insurance building. The Interior is huge, I did not realze that they had so much seating space, they also have a lounge. I was greeted by a very friendly staff member, she quickly as me to select a seat. I was provided a lunch menu and a main menu. The lunch pricing was very reasonable at 14.00 a plate with one main item, rice of choice and a spring roll. I choose the General Tso Chicken with Fried rice, egg roll and hot tea. The portion was good sized, I asked if it was spicy, then ordered it medium just encase. The chicken was not spicy or as spicy as I thought it might be, thankfully they had a bottle of Sriracha on the table. Great flavor overall on the Chicken and the Fried rice. I really enjoyed the hot tea and the egg roll. I am looking forward to my next visit with my family so we can order a few items and share the meal.

    Sticky Rice Chicken
    Johnny L.

    Great Service! Very average, okay tasting dim sum Siu Mai tasted off Ha Gao was more like grounded shrimp, shrimp ball like instead of whole shrimp Sticky Rice Chicken was the best Tea was average cheap tasting When I first came in, there were no customers so worry sets in, but let me just try.. just like pictures looked okay, but maybe it actually taste good? Was below average.. however Service saved it to being okay.. Portland is not known for super good dim sum like that unless H.K. Cafe which is good but not great Not much ambiance just full of tables Clean restrooms

    Spare rib with black bean - not very tasty
    Deb K.

    Having not been here in years, I sure miss the roaming dim sum carts! We had to order off the menu and the prices were a little higher than we're used to plus the food was just not as hot as I would have preferred. Overall, food was decent for dim sum. Hubby thought he ordered fried noodles but got chow fun instead. Luckily it tasted good because he doesn't like thick noodles. Typical Chinese service - not very friendly but they get the job done.

    Okay I love this place. I've only ever gotten takeout but the food is always exactly what I wanted and it's delicious. I don't know why this place gets so many bad ratings.

    Steam fish; fresh flounder 龙利
    Lee C.

    7 dishes were ordered for 7 people. I would eat the steam fish, tofu, vege and beef dishes again. Seafood fish maw soup tasted diluted. Bo zai beef brisket (not on the regular menu) had pieces of chewy meat. $30 per person, mandatory 18% tips. Wasn't too crowded at 11:30am so good for last minute gatherings. It wasn't chaotic or noisy on a Tuesday afternoon.

    String bean chicken, beef & broccoli, chow mein, broccoli sautéed with garlic.

    I have usually dined at the restaurant, but got it to go this time. Really easy and efficient to order. Only took 15 min. Everything was yummy.

    Shin ju roll basically a vegetarian springroll rolled in tofu skin ! Yum!
    Ellen C.

    Food is authentic and makes me sad that i live sooo far away! We ordered enough for five people! Ambiance is fine, chatty environment, friendly staff, and clean establishment! Must visit again soon!

    Chicken Lo Mein
    Marty M.

    Chow mein - good. Thing noodles, not a lot of chicken, which is fine, good flavor Egg drop soup - terrible. Grey in color, had mushrooms and tofu?? Weird to put into this soup. I don't think there's any eggs in it??? Scratches the Chinese food itch, but don't order the egg drop soup.

    Kung pao

    Great Kung pao needs more peanuts and little bit more spice great service and also got potstickers

    Dimsum
    Ploy N.

    Their dimsum is solid! Looks like they might even do it all day too. No carts, you tick what you want on the piece of paper and then your food arrive promptly after. I noticed that their dimsum items are on the bigger side compared to other spots, making them great for sharing with a group. We got a wide array of things but the top three for me were the Shin Roll, the BBQ Rice Roll, and the Shrimp and Chive Dumpling. I loved how filled these were. The BBQ pork in the rice roll was so tender and flavorful. The shrimp was also super fresh and bouncy. Definitely would go back for these. Prices were decent too with the small stuffs being $5.5, medium stuffs were $6.5, and the large ones were $7.5. We'll be back!

I'm ordering some to go for steaming tomorrow morning before taking my family to the airport.

I was surprised how big their menu is, and that it spans from Cantonese dim sum to Sichuan spicy dishes. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing. The dim sum is your typical standard fare. They make a good pan fried noodle dish and congee. Of the dim sum items, I think I liked the har gow the best. The rest of the items I think they could use some better seasoning. Service wise they do need a few more carts going when it gets busy. The last time we went, my mom just up and walked over to the cart that was on the other side of the room to get some items. Or just switch to the "pencil and order on demand" method. Saves some of the service hassle. There are some nice banquet sized tables towards the back of the dining room, with lazy susans and such. If you're not looking to go east side for dim sum, this is a suitable place.

It felt very traditional, especially with the lazy Susan's and being able to eat family style Chinese dinner. Every dish we ordered was large and perfect for a large family. Very flavourful, too! This Saturday morning, we went for dim sum with a few friends. I loved that they had carts going around. We arrived right at opening with many other guests, but were promptly serviced. We're all from more Asian areas so it's so nostalgic to sit and speak Cantonese. I was impressed with all of the food. They don't have as many options as other restaurants, but they do have all the basics (har gow, siu mai, cheung fun) that you need. And they were incredibly tasty!! The egg tarts especially were so perfect and flaky. I'm excited for them to become more popular.

Since we had our dog with us, we ordered everything to go and enjoyed it back at our hotel just down the street. Just a heads up if you're planning the same, there wasn't any outdoor dining available. Being from the SF Bay Area, one of the first things we looked for was Har Gow and Siu Mai, but they weren't labeled the way we're used to. After asking, we found out the Crystal Shrimp Dumplings are their Har Gow, and the Shrimp Siu Mai contains pork, which was exactly what we were looking for. We ordered two of each. We also ordered two Beef Chow Fun, Combination Fried Rice, Eggplant with Minced Pork, Sweet & Sour Spare Ribs, and three pear sodas. The dim sum absolutely hit the spot. The Har Gow and Siu Mai were well seasoned, nicely prepared, and exactly what we had been craving. The Beef Chow Fun was another winner. We were glad we ordered two because we found ourselves reaching for it more than the fried rice. The Eggplant with Minced Pork was also delicious. The eggplant was cooked perfectly -- tender without becoming mushy -- and the seasoning was right on point. I'm also glad we changed our order from the House Special Spare Ribs to the Sweet & Sour Spare Ribs. Unlike many versions, these weren't battered and fried, so the pork maintained a great texture while still being coated in a flavorful sweet and sour sauce. One unexpected favorite was the pear soda. It's made with Asian pear, so the flavor is much lighter and more refreshing than the sweeter pear sodas we're used to. The only hiccup? They're bottled with a traditional cap, and since we were staying in a hotel, we quickly realized we didn't have a bottle opener. Let's just say we got a little creative. One thing I really appreciated was that the staff noticed our large takeout order and packed it thoughtfully. They included six extra takeout containers, plenty of forks, chopsticks, and napkins, which ended up being incredibly helpful since we were eating in a hotel room with no paper plates or utensils. It's a small gesture, but one that definitely didn't go unnoticed. Overall, we were really happy with our meal.

The XLB were juicy, and the dry pot dishes had a lot of flavor. My only small complaint was that I wish the green beans were a little less saucy and more crispy. One of the staff members mentioned they have two other locations as well. Definitely planning to come back with a group of friends next time so we can order even more dishes to share!
