Came in for the first time today. I had the Hunan Chicken lunch special. The Good: $ 8.25 for this lunch special included soup, entree, pork fried rice or chicken chow mein, and the egg roll. The service was very good. The Hot and Sour soup was excellent. The pork fried rice and the egg roll were both good, and the hot tea was tasty. The bad: The hot tea was $ 2.50. More expensive than a soda. While the veggies in the entree were obviously fresh, the peas and carrots in the fried rice were bagged, frozen ones. The ugly: The entree was heavily covered in what tasted like seasoned salt, with no Hunan sauce at all. Also, the entree portion was a little small. ( plenty of rice though). Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I would go back again and see what else might be good. They have an extensive menu. read more

Have always had a great experience with their takeout service. It can get very busy in here so I of course recommend calling your order ahead of time. Even when waiting inside for a take out order, we never had to wait more than 15 min for our items to be ready. The staff is always so friendly and nice. They have a nice selection on their menu and everything we've ordered so far has been wonderful. This is our favorite Chinese restaurant in Rocklin. My recommendations are the orange chicken, and the Hong Kong style crispy chowmein. Nothing is ever too salty or too greasy, or too bland for that matter. Prices are reasonable as well. Everything has always been consistent. Will continue coming back. read more

The food has always been very good. We're love that the same people have always been there. The prices also seem very good. Through many years, we've had great experience all but once. No big deal. It's a great place to have in the neighborhood and I recommend it. read more

You'd never know it by looking at the outside, but this is the best Chinese food in the Sacramento area. In fact, it's some of the best I've had anywhere. Super friendly staff, generous portions, and delicious food. The best! One warning--they have always had the best General's Chicken, but we have found that just recently they will precook it and it's cold (or room temp) by the time it gets to the table. This diminishes the crispness and overall enjoyment. Ask for it fresh and hot, and NOT microwaved! Hopefully this is just temporary. read more

We have been going to China Villa for more than a decade. The food was good. However, in the last few years the quality has deteriorated beyond words. It seems they are guaranteed of customers and are so overworked that the chefs and the cooks really don't care what they are dishing out, The curry powder in Singapore Street Noodles had a raw smell and there was too much turmeric. It had no chicken one of the main ingredients but it had sausage. The dish was dry. Hot and Sour was very sour. The heat and the acid in the soup should be balanced. The cook certainly didn't pay attention to how much vinegar he was pouring. The cabbage in the Twice Cooked Pork was too mature and tough. So unless they check their cooks and chefs as to what they are dishing out and know what good Chinese food is, this restaurant has lost my business. read more

My wife & I drive from Orangevale just to eat here. Been doing it for over 10 years. Absolutely the BEST general chicken anywhere. The service is top notch & the value for the portions is excellent. Keep it up C-V & we'll keep coming as often as we can! read more

Happy Chinese New Year! Chinese New Year happened to fall on a Saturday this year (2020), so they were insanely busy. We usually order food by phone to take out, but chose to eat in tonight. There was a bit of a wait to even get our name on the list, but we were seated pretty quickly after that. We could hear the phones going nuts, and could see everyone was working hard. It did take a while to get our drinks, then for the food to come out, but I never saw a single employee standing around idle. They were constantly bringing food to tables or to-go orders to the front. And I felt the food was well worth the wait My 9-year old ate more food than I've seen her eat in a single meal in a while! She loved everything! She even asked for foods she normally won't eat (zucchini and carrots from the Mixed Vegetables plate). The other dishes we ordered and she devoured: Sizzling Rice Soup, Mu Shu Vegetables, House Special Chow Ho Fun, and Beef with String Beans. read more

I strongly oppose food waste but ended up throwing the whole order of food after one bite. Fresh garlic chicken was supposed to be hot and spicy but instead it was more like mango chicken in sweet sauce with big pieces of garlic.. Will never order food from here again! Also it was just the deep fried chicken in sweet sauce, no rice with it. read more

I've been eating here for over a decade. Still amazing food after all these years! Best Chinese food in Rocklin!

My mother always told me if you don't have something nice to say say nothing at all. However, this is the second time in a row I was disappointed. What can be more simple than a general tso's combo. The rice was older and mushy, and the fried chicken pieces were actually cold. The eggroll was a soggy mess. read more

China Villa is located in the Krush Burger/ Chef's Table/ Shave Monstter strip mall across the street from RC Wiley Shopping Center. The location is medium sized with standard decor. I ordered one of the Special Dinners for two togo $14.95 pp. The dinner included chicken corn soup, 2 veggie egg rolls, 2 pork spare ribs, 2 deep fried prawns, Broccoli Beef, Honey Walnut Prawns and House Special Fried Rice. The soup was very bland and I had to add soy sauce and pepper for some flavor. The egg rolls and prawns looked and tasted like store bought. The pork spare ribs were surprisingly meaty and not bad for being pre-cooked and re-heated. The broccoli beef was good with broccoli being cooked just right, not to soft not still crunchy. The honey walnut prawns were decent but had a touch too much mayo. The special fried rice was lacking flavor even though it had a decent amount of ingredients. My bill came to a paltry $31.96 and for this part of town, that is a lot of food for a little bit of money. While China Villa isn't going to knock your socks off with their food, it won't dent your budget either. There are better Chinese places in the area but I often don't feel like paying their inflated prices. If you feel like me sometimes give China Villa a try. I will be back to try more of their menu too. read more

Staff are rude and pushy. Don't be there when it's almost time to close they literally rush you to eat and pay your bill and get out. And truthfully the food isn't that good. They don't add enough main ingredient items in their dish. Just rude read more

The staff was attentive and friendly. The food was quite good. We have moved into the area and will return.

Everyone around here needs to know how special this place is. My wife and I would come here weekly, they know our names. We sold our house in Roseville and moved to San Antonio at the beginning of September, we've tried 3 places, they not only aren't as good as China Villa, they're not even half as good! And don't forget the service at China Villa. We are Sacramento natives, and believe me when I say this is the only place that we have truly missed!! Luckily, we also love Mexican food, and Texas has California beat hands down on that. We are now in town visiting family, and I wanted to go to China Villa, but you guys are on lockdown again... so I'll miss out unfortunately. When you go, please have some Kung Pao Chicken and Hot and Sour soup for me. read more

For the last several years, I've passed by China Villa on my way to my favorite "big box" sporting goods store, but I never knew the restaurant existed until I heard some of my neighbors raving about it. My visit happened last year and I'm just getting around to "Yelping" about it. Forgive the delay... The dining room is spacious, clean and very comfortable. There are several large, round tables, each one with a lazy susan in the middle of the table, as Chinese food is meant to be shared. The seating is divided equally between tables, and booths. As it was time for lunch, I ordered from the "Lunch Special" section of the menu, that posts a whopping 43 different varieties of lunch plates, most of which are priced at only $7.50, as of this writing. The lunch includes a bowl of soup, if you're dining inside, rather than take-out, the main entree, an egg roll, and your choice of barbecue pork-fried rice, steamed rice, or chicken chow mein. Today, I opted for the #18, which is "Szechuan Pork," and I went with the chicken chow mein, and, of course, hot and sour soup. The lunch plate is BIG, big enough for dinner, and REALLY BIG for lunch; it isn't giant, but I would think it would satisfy any hunger. Everything about my lunch was PERFECT, including the marinated pork, the delicious Chinese sauce, and the vegetables, which retained just enough "crunch" to make them spectacular. The photo really does the meal justice, but trust me, the meal tasted even better than it looks in the photo! I have to confess that I'm a sucker for any Chinese restaurant that serves hot and sour soup, as it's my favorite variety of soup served at Chinese restaurants. China Villa serves delicious hot and sour soup, and when you throw in one of their awesome lunches, it makes for a meal to remember. Including tax, the total came to only $8.08, so by giving my server a 10-spot, plus a 1, that made for a great tip to reward her for her great service, and to let the friendly staff know that I enjoyed one of the best Chinese lunches that I've eaten in a long time. I'm a "foodie" and I've enjoyed restaurants all over the west, and parts of Mexico. I've posted hundreds of restaurant write-ups on my web site, www.erench.com. read more

Ordered the hot garlic scallops ( bite size). They were so tasteless. Tasted like they were boiled and thrown into a sauce that was by far not even close to hot. There were more vegs on the plate than scallops. Got a lot of nerve charging 28$ for that. Totally disappointed and mad they could even serve these at that price especially . read more

Soo good def recommend best spot in rocklin for Chinese staff is super friendly food bomb

Awful. That food sucked, waste of money. Little cheap frozen tiny prawns for the walnut prawns. Fried Rice was bland. Salt and pepper pork chops sucked, tons of this yellow batter that wasn't even cooked, gross. That was terrible I make them authentically myself at home way better and I'm white. read more

The best Chinese food in placer county. One of my favorites is the chow fun. I love you can call in an order and bring it home and it is always hot. read more

This Chinese food spot is one of my favorites. The food is always good, fresh, and served with a smile. There was only one time we ordered it for take-out, and it wasn't their best product. However, this was only one time out of the many times we have came to eat there. I will also add the take-out order was during COVID-19, so maybe they were busy/rushed or just adjusting to the new norm. We will always consider this spot our "go to" when we need some good food at a great price. read more

Very Yummy food and nice ambience!!! I love the soup!!! Thank you for your warm hospitality too. Hope to see you soon. read more

The best Chinese restaurant in town. The food is always fresh and they have the best service. Would highly recommend.

As close to authentic Chinese food you can get here in Roseville/Rocklin! I am a regular here at China Villa... they know me by name. It's as authentic as you can get to Chinese food here in Roseville... it satisfies my Chinese food fix. Great food, clean environment, affordable prices, service is fast for the most part (they do get a full house once in a while), friendly staff, lots of parking space. I've dined-in and placed take out/pick up orders with no problems. They have accommodated our large party of at least 10 or more easily with no hassles. Love all the fried rice, whether beef or BBQ pork or shrimp. My favorite is their Hong Kong-style pan fried noodles. They do have lunch plate specials which comes with either egg drop soup or hot & sour. The soup only comes with the meal if you're dining in. The menu is quite extensive which includes sections of noodles/rice, pork, beef and seafood. Overall great experience. Location is great from both my home and work. Review #0008 read more

Great food and large portions! We definitely always have great customer service when we dine in & order take out.

Been years since Ive eaten here, since 2013 to be exact. I don't remember this place being as good as it is now! I only ordered War Wonton Soup and Potstickers but man!! Was it delicious! Not sure if its new cooks now, but I can't wait to try more now!! read more

Quality food and great portions been there several times. I really like the House special fried rice

I ate here back in November and my mother and I had the Mongolian beef and it was very slimey. It was so slimey that we ended up just throwing it away because it wasn't edible. I do not recommend it. read more

This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in the Rocklin area in my opinion. And they are always busy. Even though their prices went up after the pandemic (what isn't nowadays?) the taste of their food remains the same. I always order their large soups (hot and sour and wonton soup) If you haven't tried this place yet, you should. read more

Food is always amazing! My husband enjoys ordering the Sweet & Sour Pork combination plate and I order either the General Chicken or the Kung Pao chicken combination plate. The egg flour soup and the hot and sour soup are delicious! Just be mindful, that you are here to eat delicious food, your drinks will be filled promptly, and your order will come out in a timely fashion. They will most likely bring out the check before you are done eating, but it's not to rush you out. They're just efficient that way. Don't expect to become friends with the staff. They are quick and efficient without all the "fluff." read more

If you are a vegetarian, avoid this place. It says many vegan and vegetarian options but that is not the case. I asked if they could make me Mongolian Tofu instead of Mongolian Beef as every other Chinese Restaurant has and was told, "The kitchen may not want to do that," but would not ask. We saw tofu on other items on the menu, although it was mixed with meat. We ended up walking out. This restaurant was recommended to us. I am recommending that you are a vegetarian to go somewhere else. read more

We tried this place last night for takeout and we were very unimpressed. Starting off calling in whoever picked you could barely hear anyone at all and repeating myself 3x. The 2 stars are for being ready on time, getting the order right and the food. Upon arriving I walked in the place is dead and a older lady doesn't greet me just asks what's your name? Ok how about hello, welcome in nope just what's your name. After we got those pleasantries out of the way another lady comes out of the back with our food and places it on the counter I verify a few items. I grab my bag and at the last minute as I am out the door the younger lady that brought out our food says thanks while the grumpier older lady just looked ahead. The food we ordered once we got home was dripping out of the containers because there is so much sauce. We ordered the kung pao chicken, mongolian beef and Szechuan pork. All the dishes were overwhelming with huge chunky veggies with the actual meat being an afterthought. The only bright spot was pot stickers. We were really disappointed because this area finding great Chinese is a big challenge. read more

Great food, great service-love the lunch specials. I crave the wonton soup on the regular

Food might be great, but I won't continue to support a business who treats their employees like this. Who I am assuming is the manager, degraded an employee right in front of everybody. (Not that it's okay in private) He was speaking to her so rudely, and then asked if she was 'slow' because she was asking for clarity on something he was telling her. This is extremely inappropriate and hurtful. To the server this happened to, I am so sorry you were treated this way, and I can't imagine it was the first or last time. You deserve a real manager who treats you with respect; report this incident to HR. This man was older, black hair. Hopefully this guy gets fired. read more
