    Dining room
    Tan P.

    This is a solid Chinese Restaurant in Simi Valley. It's probably overlooked by many because of the location. The food is made fresh and the quantities are large. The one item we did not like was the dim sum appetizer plate because the dumplings were a little tough and chewy, but the bbq bao was good and soft. The won ton soup was good and large enough for a family of 5-6. They charge extra for rice which I think should be standard and complimentary. Overall, it's a nice and clean restaurant that services freshly cooked food. Tables are a bit small, so don't recommend coming in large groups.

    Dropped in for lunch and what a pleasant surprise. Ordered the Mongolian Beef and Sweet and Sour Chicken. Both were fantastic and accompanied by a side of Hot and Sour soup and white rice. All in all, a fantastic experience. And at $11.99 a real bargain. I highly recommend paying Gourmet Palace a visit.

    This is my first time at this restaurant located on Madera and Royal. The restaurant use to be a take away only location until recently remolded to be a sit down restaurant. The restaurant offers an extensive menu broken down by types of entrees. The menu even includes a couple choices of dim sum. As my friends have been to the restaurant multiple times, I did not get a chance to get through all the offerings. I settled on Chow Fun, wide rice noodles with shrimp. The noodles were good. My only complaint was there were too many onions in the dish. When I looked at my friend's plates, they too had a lot of onions. A cheap filler. Next time, I would request no onions in my dish. Our server was very attentive. We were super thirsty, so we appreciated his attentiveness in making sure our glasses were full. Plus getting us sharing plates, before even asking. Thanks for the excellent service! I'll be back to explore the menu further!

    Mango chicken

    Five star! This is now my "go to" Chinese restaurant. Everything tastes fresh and no "chewy bits" in the meat like some places. My favorite dish is the mango chicken, which is great if you like the combination of sweetness with your meat. Other standard items are also top notch: egg flower soup, sweet and pungent chicken, and beef chow mein (soft type) to name a few. The service is also amazing - Sean was friendly and attended to our needs. We even got a complimentary Thai iced tea!

    Sean was a good server. Fried wanton noodles were a nice touch. Thai Iced Tea was a hit with the family. Entrees were great, walnut shrimp was my favorite. Definitely will be back.

    Chicken Chow Mein
    Bruno P.

    Great service and food delicious! Tonight we ordered their Kung Pao San Yan and Chicken Chow Mein. Both dishes had great flavor and portions were generous. We ordered for two people. We'll definitely be coming back to try other dishes.

    Sesame chicken...no...that's not how you cook...

Ambiance The environment was very relaxing, although definitely small. Food We ordered the Mentaiko Chicken Tonkatsu as well as the Chicken Wonton Soup ramen. The soup did not come out as hot as we would have liked, it felt like it was just warmed. Although the chicken wonton soup came with a clear broth, we felt that it was oily. The actual chicken wontons had a good flavor and texture. The dish was simple but was sufficient. The mentaiko chicken tonkatsu ramen felt like it lacked depth despite being a tonkatsu broth. Although, the chicken that topped the dish was very flavorful and seemed to be marinated well. The noodles were the classic texture and the topping for me felt standard. Service Our waitress was nice, but it definitely felt a bit understaffed and we were forgotten about (I don't blame her since we were taking our time with the menu).

    I'm not sure what's going on with our usual go-to Chinese restaurant in Newbury Park, but after a…read moreyear and a half absence from getting takeout from them, they don't appear to be open. Their voicemail message continues to say "temporarily closed." So I started searching closer to home, which is a challenge because I don't usually view any Simi Valley restaurant as being worthy of our patronage... yet, I searched anyway. I found Bao Su on Yelp, so we decided to give them a try based on other Yelper reviews. Bottom line is that my husband and I were incredibly impressed with their food, not to mention, happy that it is so much closer. We ordered the following (takeout): Shrimp Fried Rice Shrimp with Lobster Sauce Szechuan Style Eggplant Sizzling Chicken Mongolian Beef I had a bit of a problem deciphering their menu because there weren't a lot of details as to ingredients, so I took chances and prayed they were dishes we've had before. Everything was delicious, plentiful and mostly recognizable... with the exception of the shrimp with lobster sauce. That was more soup-like and watered down from what we're used to, but it was still really good. All dishes were loaded with protein and vegetables, well seasoned and sauced, and textures were soft or crunchy, just as we knew them to be... and just as we loved them. We've since ordered from them again, and they were (very happily) consistently delicious. We are sooooooo happy to now have a LOCAL Chinese restaurant that we can trust and enjoy. We may even dine there and not do the takeout thing for a change. (I really would like to ask them what some of their other dishes are on the menu cuz I would like more options, truth be told. However, if the dishes above are the only ones I would ever choose to order, I'm fine with that, too.)

Just a few minutes away, tucked into the corner of a shopping area next to a Target, it is easy to get to, easy to order, and available for takeout or dine-in. The menu offered several tasty-sounding vegetarian sandwiches, so I really had to spend some time deciding before I even got there. I settled on the Californian (house-marinated artichoke hearts, avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, green leaf lettuce, herb aioli) and some kettle chips as an add-on. It does come with a small green side salad (Urbane House Side Salad), with a vinaigrette dressing. The sandwich was very tasty, with plenty of vegetables, and clearly had artichokes aplenty. I ordered with extra aioli on the side, but in the end did not need it, as the sandwich was very moist as made. (I did use it as a dip for the chips - no waste here!) Quick service, good value, tasty food, clean location - for a small chain sandwich shop, very good!

I decided on a fried ube snack and a milk tea with boba. My milk tea had a good amount of sweetness and quenched my craving for a little sweet, caffeinated beverage. The fried ube snack had only a hint of ube flavor and was freshly made to order. Everything here is priced point well, in comparison to other boba shops.

The food came out warm and was served in a very simple way, nothing fancy like you'd see in a restaurant. The menu is very large, so we would like to return to order other items. This is a nice place for a small dinner and spending time to study, read, or play board games. If you want a full meal, look for a restaurant. But this is a great place in Simi.
