A friend of mine told me that this place competes with a famous chicken place in SF. When she said…read morethat the chicken here was better, I took her word for it and I was BLOWN AWAY! The chicken is so crispy on the outside, the sauce is well balanced and flavorful, and the meat in the wings are so tender. Its honestly the perfect chicken wing! The restaurant is in a little plaza off of the Sonoma exit in Vallejo. They have plenty of seats indoors, and when I went a second time to grab me more chicken around lunch time, it was PACKED. This place is actually poppin'!

3 Star Restaurant probably has some of the best, tastiest Chinese food in Vallejo. It also has…read moreFilipino dishes but we've focused on Chinese. It's a small, strip mall restaurant with plenty of parking. The decor is unique with the owner's love of Lego! Her creations are displayed everywhere in the restaurant. Every time we come in, tables are pretty full. They need more wait staff to handle the crowd. Peak weekend hours like Friday evenings are crazy busy for takeout. They are so popular sometimes their phone is turned off in order to handle the orders. So for takeout during those times, you have to go in person, wait in a long line the length of the restaurant to place an order, then find a seat or wait outside for up to an hour. Meanwhile the tables are full of customers dining. Why do people go through with this when you see other restaurants in the area empty at dinner hours? The food is good and worth the wait. We try to plan our eat-in dining at 3 Star outside of the crowded times, even coming from as far as Fairfield. Dad loves the Beef with Bitter Melon, his favorite dish that Mom used to cook. I don't think we've had a bad dish here, so order whatever you like. OK, the Tomato Beef Pan-fried Noodles is too tomato-saucy red and sugary sweet. My favorite is the Seafood Pan-fried Noodles. Their Chinese Mushrooms with Chinese Vegetables is also good, but they only have bok choy and Dad likes gai lan / Chinese broccoli. The Garlic Sauce Chicken Wings are spicy and really tasty. Next time we'll try their Garlic Chicken Wings since they look so good in photos. 3 Star's super nice owner is very sweet to 94-year old Dad, and treats him very special. Once she even gave us an extra order that a customer said was wrong because she was allergic to shrimp. She also gives us the deep fried Chinese sesame balls for dessert. Maybe everyone gets them?

Szechuan Chinese Cuisine, Vallejo: 2026 Jul 11 (5 of 5)…read more A Place Worth Visiting! Not all Chinese foods are made equal. Gettings decent Chinese food is not easy. Getting really tasty Chinese food is even harder. Szechuan Chinese Cuisine in Vallejo has bold, intense, and complex flavors. Originating from the Sichuan province of China, Sichuan food combines fiery red chilies with the signature Sichuan peppercorn which produces a unique, tingling buzz on the lips and tongue. Whether the food here is authentic Sichuan cuisine, I don't know because I've never been to China. However, the food here has all the flavours that satisfies my tummy: fragrant, hot, salty, sweet, aromatic, deep umami flavours defined by cooking on very hot stove. The service here is excellent and nearly all the dishes were well thought out. They offer deeply layered dishes that goes far beyond simple heat. The only dish that did not satisfy me fully was the pork chop. I just couldn't sink my teeth in it, but the flavours sure are prominent. Overall, this is a place worth visiting. This eatery looks clean and well maintained. I took a peek in the kitchen and everything seem to have its place. Emily was our server. She's a delightful lady with positive energy. Parking is easy, open, and free. Disclaimer: I am not paid for my reviews. My reviews are only on items I have tested and tried.

Their lunch specials are available every day (including weekends) so they are my go to. Each special comes with the soup of the day, an egg roll, and your choice of fried rice or chow mein. I usually order the kung pao chicken, but I have also tried the cashew chicken and the three delicacies (beef, shrimp, and chicken) which are also great. The portions are very generous, and I usually have enough leftovers for a second meal. Overall, a great local spot with good value and consistently satisfying food!

Gosh I hate to do this. The owners seem so nice. When we…read morewalked in and were the only two people, that should have been a red flag. I had read most of the reviews on Yelp. We all have different tastes. A lot of people really like this restaurant, comparing it to San Francisco Chinese food in China town. Our experience was not good. Upon my better judgment, I ordered the Pot Stickers. Reviews had said too much dough, no flavor in the filling. Well, that is absolutely true and the oil tasted off. I ate one, my husband at two. There were six. I ordered the Basil Chicken only to be told they were out of Basil. I changed it to Garlic Chicken. I asked what the House Special Beef was. The owner told me it was Spicy Beef with Bok Choy. I asked if we could have extra veggies in it. She said yes. And finally the BBQ Pork Fried Rice. Food came, they looked exactly the same except one was beef and one was pork. They tasted exactly the same and the beef had no heat. The rice even tasted like the other two dishes. It all was more like a bland brown gravy instead of tasting like Chinese food. When my husband and I go out to Chinese Food, we never have leftovers. We didn't want to offend them so we got ToGo boxes. When we got home, it all went straight into the trash. My husband had a Diet Pepsi with dinner, I had my own water. With tip it was over $70.00. Two people came in to pick up take out orders, while we were there. So not much business and they definitely won't get ours again!

Although this is a chain, I hadn't previously been to any of their locations. I was actually quite…read morehappy with their Pork XLB. Even for the ones I didn't eat until towards the end of the meal, there was still a good amount of soup inside that didn't get absorbed by the meat or wrap. You order at a tablet, located at each table, for dine in orders. You can also specify if you want certain items to go, which was perfect because we were eating some things there and taking some items to family. We ordered the following for there: Pork XLB, Shrimp Pork Shaomai, Garlic Green Beans, and Chocolate XLB. The following was ordered to go: Wonton Soup, Pork Bun & BBQ Pork Bun. It's not a huge space, most of the tables are on the left side of the restaurant. A large portion is the food prep / behind the counter area. I had the milk tea to drink. It was fine, nothing special, but I hadn't had one in a while so I enjoyed it with my meal. I also thought the Chocolate XLB was interesting. It was melted/gooey chocolate inside the skin/wrap. It was a nice finish to the meal. I think most of the items were more a 4 for me, but since I loved the XLB so much, it's a 5 rating.

A Vallejo gem for potlucks!…read more Bestie and I got some of their fried chicken and chow main for a party and the chicken was the star of the show. Crispy, salty with dark meat - YUM. Chow mien could've used some TLC but Small tray runs around $50-$60 and their service was pretty fast for walk in orders. Just waited 10 min for 2 heaping portions of small trays. Also tried their potstickers and love how they're handmade with dough. They were a nice snack as we waited for the rest of the order. Free parking and takeout only!

I would have like it to have a little more flavor in the mix a little more black pepper could have given it that extra pinch of flavor. But overall it was cooked to perfection and not oily at all. They were super friendly and took my order right away. I got the combo plate half and half with beef and broccoli and spicy chicken. It's your little hole in the wall joint that has good size servings when you want quick cheap Chinese. I want to try the walnut shrimp next time. I had my husband and baby waiting for me in the car so I only got what they had available. Definitely would try it again if I'm back in the area.
