We love this place! We get takeout from them about twice a month. Their food is consistently great. Everything we have tried there is awesome. Fast service. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. It is our favorite Chinese food place in all of Clark county. read more

I have NEVER had chow mein like this. Any chow mein from any other Chinese restaurant has actual noodles, not just bean sprouts. We went back because we thought the order is wrong and they told us we didn't know what chow mein was. If you look up ANY picture on google for chow mein, this is not what shows up. Apparently this is an east coast thing? But we are also on the west coast... The Mongolian beef was not cooked enough. The salt and pepper tofu and egg drop soup were good. read more

Chinese Cafe - Apparently this is chow mein - Chinese Near Me - Washougal, Washington

The staff? Amazing. The food? Great. The hot mustard? Don't eat too much or your nose will burn. The portions are really big, and you get your money's worth with the family meals. There's plenty of seats and round tables for a large group. I go here all the time with family and so do my friends. I don't have a single bad experience with the food. Get some tea in the winter too. read more

I came here for lunch with a friend. I had never been here and was happy to check it out I was pleasantly surprised. The lunch specials were a great price and a very good size. Came with an egg roll and a crab Rangoon. The portions were large and tasty. I got the Kung pow chicken and it was really good My friend got green beans and shrimp. I really liked her dish. I'll probably get that next time :-) The lunch also comes with choice of hot and sour or egg drop soup Place is really clean and Service was spot on. Definitely a place worth stopping in for a bite Looks like their takeout business was pretty good read more

You won't get outstanding Chinese food, but they have decent lunch specials and you can taste the "wok-hei" that the stir fry's are cooked with. With the inflation prices, you can get a big portion of lunch special with a hot & sour or egg drop soup for a decent price. I ordered the shrimp and green beans lunch special and it comes with a spring roll, 2 crab rangoons, and a huge scoop of fried rice. My friend had the kung pao chicken that she requested a little spicy and it was really tasty! Would definitely come back for lunch specials Thanks for the excellent service! read more

I love the Almond Chicken Chow Mein, BBQ pork, S&S Chicken, and Crab Puffs. Hot and Sour soup I also enjoyed. Friendly staff, reasonable wait time, quiet setting. Their hot mustard is fresh and has a serious kick! No fountain drinks was my only thing, but bottles and cans definitely suffice. Small town charm. read more

Love the dish I got. Some garlic sauce (can't remember the dang name). Was so good. Glad to see tofu on the menu. So I don't have to just eat veggies. Lady that served us was amazingly awesome. Tried to get sauce recipe. Wish there was more tofu in the dish. read more

I repeatedly come back to Chinese cafe, the food is very good, with a large selection of dishes, and a great portion sizes. The service is always good, the workers are very friendly, and accommodating, overall a very nice place to get some Chinese food. read more

Drove 30min to get their egg foo young paid $14 for the side, it was disgusting, tasted like old flower! That was microwaved, definitely not like we have had other times! I asked the waitress if it was old cause of the taste, she said oh yes it's fresh! And no offer for discount or replacement, just next time try it again! What kind of customer service! We won't be back! We didn't even eat half of what we got! Don't order the egg foo young!! read more

How have I not written a review for this gem yet? This restaurant has changed hands a few times since we started going here 20 yrs ago, but it just keeps getting better! The staff is so friendly and the food is fresh and fast. I have never had a bad meal here. They have done some cosmetic updates as well and it feels so warm and comfortable. read more

Not impressed with food. Came in less than 5 minutes. I think the egg rolls were refried in a second coating of batter. Green beans didn't taste fresh. Service was good. If we were to eat in it looked clean and pleasant. But we decided to take out. First time there. Probably won't return. read more

The food has really gone down. The rice was undercooked, the potstickers were horrible, and the breading on the shrimp and chicken were overly breaded. Test if the dishes lacked flavor and the quality of the chicken was horrible. Will not eat here again! read more

The Salt and Pepper Shrimp is the best I've had, and the Hot and Sour Soup is also divine. As others have said, it doesn't look like much on the outside, but the food is excellent. This was our first time here, but we will be back. read more

Not sure how to feel about this place... friendly staff, good service, but the food just made me feel weird. Kinda felt deserted, maybe a tad haunted, but honestly a vibe. It was very mid. Lots of food for the cost, just not great quality. Felt like false advertising from the website. read more

We live in Vancouver and hadn't found a good old fashioned Chinese restaurant. Driving around one day we were looking for a place to have lunch in Washougal and just happened upon this possibly. Service was fast and all our old favorites were on the menu. This is the one and only time we've been here, but I'm sure we will be back in the future. Good service, reasonable prices and good food are the things we look for on a lunch time outing. Not fancy so no coat and tie required. read more

most of the food we order was good. My egg foo young was not good at all. I have never had a hard egg foo young. I ordered shrimp egg foo young as they make it fresh. I don't think they used eggs at all. It was very strange texture. Maybe with the higher egg prices they should take it off menu. read more

I was in town and didn't know where to eat. We ordered takeout and it was done pretty fast. The call during order went smoothly. LOTS of food for a pretty decent price and was really good. read more

The owner is amazing. I moved here from Hawaii many years ago and never found a place that makes this dish. The owner told me to call her the day before and she would make it for me. I know it looks simple but Cold Ginger Chicken it is one of my favorite Chinese dishes. The food is always hot and fresh and definitely made with love. read more

We were excited to try the Chinese Cafe but came away with mixed reviews. We ordered from the yelp app, and I'm not sure that was the best choice. Next time I will call directly and order. We really liked our combo meals with pork fried rice, wontons, and the main dish. We weren't wild about the orange chicken, it didn't have much flavor, and we didn't notice any orange flavor at all; maybe we were given a different entree? read more

Great Chinese food the best around I come from Fairview Oregon over here to washougal for the best Chinese food ever!

I eat here a lot. I am so glad they are here. They are not going to blow your mind with incredible authentic szechuan cuisine. If you want a nice meal that is served fresh and hot, this is your place. I order it just before leaving the house and it is piping hot when I get it home. read more

Sorry to say not a Good Experience for the first time. I ordered Chicken Curry lunch Special and a order of Fried Shrimp. The Chicken Curry tasted nothing like Curry and there was Four small pieces of chicken and a Lot of Vegetable's, especially mushrooms ( it makes me wonder if I received the wrong lunch special). It had flavor but no Curry. The Fried shrimp is very fresh looking.The batter is much to thick and they do not devein the shrimp, which is a Huge turn off. The Crab Puffs were very Good. The Spring roll was your typical crunchy on the outside mush inside. (Not fresh tasting). I like fresh not frozen. I will try again another day with a friend. Maybe it was just a off day. I hope so, we need a Good Chinese Restaurant out here. read more

So this has become the new family favorite. We tried to come here at least every other week if not more for lunch or for dinner this is a great stop. You can do pick up you can call ahead and have your order ready or you can have it delivered by local companies I'm not sure which one they use. Accept credit cards or cash. They have wonderful tea at the table and their soups sweet and sour and egg flower or both very tasty. Everything they make there has been hit. The only thing I wasn't too excited about was the chef's chicken only because it wasn't as flavorful as everything else that they make. I do not normally like sweet and sour but this was actually incredible flavor. The egg foo young the chicken egg foo young or the pork are both extremely good. The garlic green beans, the orange chicken, the chop suey, the shrimp dishes we have tried them all it is absolutely the best Chinese food I've had in 35 years I recommend you go at least once try it out at least try the appetizers the crab Puffs are to die for. read more

Pretty good! We ate here more than 15 years ago and didn't feel the need to return. We thought we'd try again. The new owners have significantly improved the food. The food was all freshly prepared. It's an old style Americanized Chinese restaurant like I remember from my childhood. I wish the new owners the best of luck!! read more

Use to come here weekly years ago and food was way better back then. We got it tonight and the fried shrimp and chicken was doughy not cooked long enough and the chicken in the kung pao was slimy and undercooked read more

My family and I came here at 11:45 for lunch. The owner was very friendly. He talked about his restaurant new renovation, and he is going to update his menu. We had 4 dishes in the restaurant. First one is fried garlic salt and pepper chicken wing. Crispy outside, tender and juicy inside. I like it with ketchup. Second one is chow mei which is sweet with right amount of seasoning. Third one is fried eggplant, crispy outside, very soft inside. It comes with sweet and spicy sauce outside. Very flavorful. Forth one is fried banana, crispy outside, sweet and soft inside. read more

The last 6 months or so my vegetables are often not fully cooked and the meat is not high quality. Mongolian Beef is tough, onions were way too raw, no char or caramelization. Sweet and Sour breading has been mushy, and poop veins in the chewy shrimp. I'm sorry to say the fried rice isn't as good as it used to be. I have pictures from my order 12/18/2021. The technique seems rushed and sloppy. Packaging in Styrofoam is melted from greasy fried food. read more

WORST CHINESE FOOD I'VE EVER HAD... No... worst FOOD I've ever had PERIOD PLEASE don't waste your money! My family and I wanted to check out this place to support local businesses. We ordered online $75 and (stupidly) chose the 20% tip! BIG mistake! FIRST: EVERYTHING was tasteless, dry, and bland, I am not exaggerating here! If anything I am being kind! (At home my descriptions contained plenty of "colorful metaphors") We ordered the "D" Family dinner... oh wow, where do I begin? The BBQ Pork smelled and tasted like it was going bad. We couldn't eat it. The Crab puffs had no crab in them, seriously just fried batter with batter in the middle! The Sesame chicken, a tasteless slimy mass of battered dry stuff?? that had NO RESEMBLANCE to chicken! The Broccoli beef had HUGE pieces of broccoli (mainly stems) and a few dry gristly beef slices, bathed in watery burnt oil, and again, was completely tasteless! The BBQ Pork Yakisoba... (I really didn't think you could screw this up so badly but they did!) literally tasted like burnt oil! that's it! and the BBQ pork that was in it was so dry and hard we had to spit it out! No amount of soy sauce could help this disgusting mass. The egg flower soup tasted like disinfectant chemicals, I immediately removed it from the table. The Sweet and Sour Pork? Well, THEY COMPLETELY FORGOT IT! (maybe that was a blessing??) The Egg roll, at best, was "OK". Of course the steamed rice seemed fine! (kind of hard to screw up Steamed white rice!) Even MORE disappointing was the order of Orange Chicken (my favorite), When I opened the container I was appalled and didn't want to believe that this could possibly be Orange Chicken, but apparently it was, or at least was meant to be! It was a pale slimy brick of batter shaped like a brain... I had a hard time peeling off a few pieces to even try it but rest assured it was terrible! It tasted like it looked. It must have taken great skill to make this so slimy on the outside yet so DRY on the inside! Again, NO taste, and NO orange!... I did get a TINY hint of orangish? aroma for a brief moment, just enough to let me know that this was supposed to be the Orange Chicken, but that was immediately drowned out by the tasteless greasy battering. The TINY box of Fried rice that came with it was like everything else in this order extremely dry and Tasteless? If I had to come up with a theory as to how this happened, I would guess that all this food was made by someone who saw a bunch of pictures of Chinese food and said "Oh I can do that!" even though they had never cooked, or tasted Chinese food! Also, going by the condition of this food, I suspect that all of it was made much earlier in the week. If you want Chinese food, Do yourself and your family a favor and go someplace else with better, ACTUAL Chinese food (Safeway Deli, AMPM, 7/11... ANYPLACE else) Unfortunately I cannot get my money back or the 20% tip I gave them PRIOR to pickup! I will however, contact my local health authority to let them know about my experience and to suggest a surprise inspection of this place. read more

Chinese Cafe - This so called "Orange Chicken" tasted as bad as it looks - Chinese Near Me - Washougal, Washington

I have searched the Vancouver/camas/washougal area high and low for my white whale, the best Chinese food in my area. I have tried them all. Great taste, taste of Asia, house of Beijing, mars, tangs wok, lucky house, blazin Asian, etc all the ones everyone recommends. Today I decided to try Chinese cafe as I had their food one other time, when I was a teenager. Today I ordered online and picked up their appetizer plate, sweet and sour chicken, and their house lo mein. The same thing I order at all Chinese places. This is literally the best in town. Every bite was delicious. The egg roll was so good and I'm super picky about egg rolls. The star of the show was the lo mein. Great flavor. Huge portion. Lots of meat and veggies and their noodles are so perfect. Honestly I will never go anywhere else again. Spectacular. read more

Chinese Cafe - Best House lo mein in the area by far. - Chinese Near Me - Washougal, Washington

Food is good for take out . I have only gotten take out and they are rather short almost rude definitely don't act like they are too happy you are there. Although the young girl was smiling a couple times as if happy to see us I guess it just depends who you get but there lack of friendliness and the ambiance is why we get take out only and don't stay go eat in . But best take out Chinese food in camas and washougal combined lol read more

We ate their orange chicken, honey walnut shrimp, chicken lo mein, with the fried rice in the meal combo. We have been hesitant to eating here because of some reviews but based on our experience it was a nice meal. My only complaint... I wish the meals came with more fired rice, the fried rice was good. Base on how everything taste, my husband and I agree that they probably don't use MSG. So if you can't eat that then you should probably be okay. Would we eat there again. Yes, yes we would. read more

The menu for sure needs pictures. The food was really bland. We got our order to go and by the time we made it home (10 minutes) everything fried was a soggy mess. I'm mainly leaving this review to remind myself to never order from here again. read more

Chinese Cafe - Sesame Beef that I ordered without onions and pork chow mein. Fail on both. - Chinese Near Me - Washougal, Washington

Food is always good staff is always friendly foods never cold.cool walls and nice seats

I truly loved the old owners and the family immensely, however, sometimes change is nice for everyone. I hope they are enjoying retirement. I am very pleased with the new(er) employees and the atmosphere. I know they've been here a while since buying the establishment, but it's only my second time back. I love how clean it is in here now and also it is much more appeasing to eat in with the wood floors and the dining room being renovated. I'm happy that the food tastes very similar (or even the same) but it seems the passion is back in the food. Here are some pictures. Even the menu is pretty and looks more up to date. Food presentation is wonderful now and staff are just friendly and on top of your needs. I highly recommend coming back if you stopped coming and try it if you haven't even bothered. You won't be disappointed. read more
