I have been having some major deep fried whole rock cod with sweet and sour sauce withdrawals…read more Since our longtime family Chinese restaurant closed its doors after being open since basically forever, I have yet to find another place that comes remotely close to filling that void. Enter China Delights. This was our first time here and while it wasn't my beloved whole rock cod, their fried whole flounder with a soy based sauce was good enough to stand in its place. The fish was fried crispy enough that you could eat the fins while the flesh remained tender and moist. The sauce wasn't too bad either. I enjoyed that fish so much that I probably could have eaten the entire thing by myself without an ounce of shame. And then our waitress gave me the information I needed to hear: if I want whole rock cod, call the day before to let them know we're coming and they'll have it ready. HUGE WIN! You don't have to tell me twice. Another thing I was happy to see was a variety of mu shu options on the menu. We went with the pork and were not disappointed. And bc my husband had his own craving that needed to be handled, we ordered the half roasted duck. And that wasn't too bad either. The staff tonight were warm and attentive. Not once did we feel unattended to, but we also never felt rushed. Sometimes that balance gets lost and they did it well tonight. So is it possible that we may have stumbled onto the promise of a new family go to spot? Possibly. They've apparently been open for over 20 years already, and I hope they stay open for another 20 bc finding an old-school Chinese restaurant that still serves some of these classic dishes is getting harder and harder. Now I just need to remember to call the day before bc that whole rock cod and I have some unfinished business.

I love that the restaurant is spacious and that there's an essence of coziness to the space. The service here is decent -- there have been multiple times where my party has had to ask for things because food or drinks were coming out too slow or were forgotten. There's definitely room for improvement in that arena. Food is delicious here, and I particularly love the sweet and sour pork! House fried rice and beef broccoli here is also amazing. Although I've had better honey walnut prawns, the ones here are still good (just pricey considering I prefer other places over it). Portion sizes are huge, even for sharing among 3-4 people. I recommend eating here with a fairly large group - you get your best deal when sharing the cost (and eating) together.

Two members of staff were constantly fast-walking or running around trying to take care of all the guests. There was also another staff member who appeared to work pretty efficiently without running. Our two friends that we were dining with are regulars here and had their favorite menu items memorized. I did not take any pictures of their food or ask them to rate it. They were very quick in decided what they wanted while we dawdled. In addition to our lunch plates, we were served Chicken Corn Soup first. Because we're greedy, we also ordered Ho Toa Tee Fuo Wonton Soup for the table. This is a deep-fried wonton in soup. The deep-frying changes the texture and flavor of the wonton in the most wonderful way. Everything came out relatively quickly and as expected. My Fish Fillet in Curry Sauce is not on the menu but still came out pretty good. I would have liked a little more sauce and some more heat, but I would order it again. The only thing I would suggest that they change is the rice that they serve. Not all long-grain rices' are of the same quality and some are simply more tender and absorbent of sauces which would raise the dining experience.

The beautiful traditional mural on the wall adds a wonderful cultural touch, making it a perfect spot for dining. Phenomenal Food & Incredible Value: Boiled Sole Fish Fillets w. Vine Pepper: The fish slices were incredibly tender, velvety, and fresh. The vine pepper broth was rich and deeply flavorful, and the addition of crunchy lotus root slices was a perfect touch. Qiaojiao Beef Hot Pot: A standout dish! The broth was clear yet intensely savory, the beef and melon were melt-in-your-mouth tender, and it balanced the spicy dishes beautifully. Garlic Dry Pot: Served in a gorgeous golden bowl! Packed with beef artery slices, beef tripe, beef slices, wood ear mushrooms, lotus root, and bamboo shoots. It had the perfect punch of garlic and spice. Garlic Crab Meat Fried Rice: Perfectly cooked with great "wok hei." The grains were distinct, flavorful with real crab meat, and not greasy at all. Overall: What makes this place even better is the incredible value--you can get completely full for around $30 per person! The portions are generous and the flavors are authentic. Tasty Sichuan nails both the bold, spicy dishes and the delicate, comforting broths. Highly recommend!
