Thank you for opening your kitchen on Christmas eve. My family had a lovely wonderful meal. We ordered the noodle, eggplant tofu with spicy garlic sauce, dumplings, and jalapeño chicken. Everything is delicious. read more

This is next to the bakery and Guadalajara Mexican Market & tax place. It's small but kept busy the whole time we were there. The establishment was very clean and the food was fresh. My bf was sick so he wanted wonton soup which he loved. The large is two of those large plastic containers. My daughter and him loved the buns and in my opinion, the food was very fresh but it lacked flavor. I didn't find anything special that would draw me back again. The service was friendly and fast though. The food is affordable. read more

This hidden gem is a great place for authentic Chinese food! They are very helpful and will go out of their way to accommodate requests; unless it's almost closing so be aware and respectful. They have a full Chinese menu of most everything you could want, and if it's not on the menu I'm betting they can make it. I love stopping in for a quick to-go order from their steamer trays that always contain a fresh, delicious selection of favorites! (I highly recommend the fish!) And the value for the serving sizes is terrific. A 3-item plate might be too much food for some! It's a small place so don't bring the family expecting a sit-down experience. There's a few tables but this is the place to go to get delicious, hot Chinese food to-go and take home! read more

Great to re-visit an old time favorite! A Monday lunchtime craving sent me back to Seven Spice Kitchen, and I was rewarded with piping hot delicious Chinese food. The Kung Pao chicken was deliciously pungent with a nice warm burn. Plenty of moist tender chicken with diced zucchini and crunchy peanuts. The jalapeno shrimp was an indulgent treat. Perfectly cooked shrimp (plump and al dente) infused with copious peppers onions and garlic in a rich brown sauce. The chow mein was their standard with thicker noodles, soy sauce flavoring with a few julienned veggies for color and texture. Instant and polite service with a cost-competitive edge, I am glad to be "back home" with their delicious offerings! read more

Worst Chinese food I've ever had. Everything tasted bad. We ate three bites and had to throw out everything else

Great fast service and pipping hot food! Tried the spicy fried chicken and it had a little kick and tasted great! read more

The food here was really good. We were fans of the orange chicken and fried rice. Service was fast and very no frills. Happy we stopped by for some quick food. read more

Happy I was finally able to give Seven Spice Kitchen a try. Think Panda Express style food but a much better home cooked version. Located in Thousand Oaks / Newbury it's a little hidden off that windy more industrial side of hillcrest. It wasn't hard to find but I rarely drive that stretch so it makes sense why I've missed them all this time. It's located in a small but busy shopping center with other food takeout spots and a Hispanic market. I found parking easily during lunch but it does get busy. Inside was clean and spacious. They had some tables for dining in but my guess is most people take their food to go, especially as you order your food at the counter out of their hot rotating item bar. Prices were decent and portions were good. I got two proteins and a half and half of sides for $10. When supporting local non chains, that's a good steal for a hefty plate of food. My plate was orange chicken, Mongolian pork, and half fried rice, half chow mein. Staff here were friendly. The gal packaged up my order quickly and was nice. Appreciated the prompt service and smiles. Great spot when you are trying to run in and out. The food taste wise was definitely 4.5 stars. I loved the fried rice, orange chicken, and the Mongolian pork. The chow mein was a little bland so I'd go full rice next time. The other bummer is those heat lamps don't keep the food very hot so there were inconsistencies in temperature, so my orange chicken was luke warm. Probably better to come right at lunch rush or when they open so everything is its freshest. Since they are a small mom and pop business, they aren't turning foods out as quickly as the chains do, which makes sense why it might sit a little more and cool down. Aside from this the flavors were very good and authentic. Their orange chicken had great crunch and was white meat. The Mongolian pork was the star though and I hope that's a regular here on their hot bar because I'll be craving that dish for a while. Cant wait to come back and this definitely is a 5 star worthy spot if I have a Better experience with their food temps. I'm going to get take out from here soon for sure and hopefully can bump up my review then. read more

Seven Spice Kitchen - Omg this was so good! Mongolian pork and orange chicken - Chinese Near Me - Newbury Park, California

Seven Spice Kitchen in Newbury Park is tucked away in a shopping center, but it's well worth seeking out. I ordered wonton soup, beef and broccoli, and salt and pepper shrimp to go, and everything was excellent. The wonton soup had a rich, flavorful broth with tender wontons, while the beef and broccoli featured fresh, crisp vegetables and tender meat in a perfectly balanced sauce. The salt and pepper shrimp were the standout--crispy, well-seasoned, and full of flavor. Generous portions and great takeout quality make this hidden gem a must-try! read more

This spot takes me back to my childhood, a cozy family-run gem that was constantly buzzing with activity, thanks to their mouthwatering Chinese dishes. Discovering this place here feels like stumbling upon a hidden treasure. The service is exceptional, warm, and attentive, making every visit special. The food is crafted fresh, never sitting around, just made to order or kept warm for moments before serving. The steady stream of happy customers each day reassures me that my meal will always come with that perfect balance of flavorful, satisfying goodness and a friendly smile. Did I mention it's family owned? Truly a remarkable find in these parts. Keep it going. read more

This is honestly the best Chinese food in town. I especially love the glass noodles. But honestly, everything we've gotten there has been top-notch. Everything feels fresh, but still authentic. read more

Seven Spice Kitchen - Great taste!! Delicious! - Chinese Near Me - Newbury Park, California

This is now your typical Chinese restaurant with a hot bar. Looked like every dish used a brown sauce. It's ok especially if you don't know what it used to be. They no longer have Szechuan spices on the buffet. The service was functional. For those reading reviews, beware that the change in ownership from a year or more ago did not retain most of what they had before. Read most recent reviews for current status. read more

Food is great, but it's important to note that this is primarily a take out place with just a few tables with uncomfortable seating.

The food my husband ordered was orange chicken, egg fried rice and broccoli & beef and spring rolls. He said something smelled on the way home with it sitting in the car. The spring rolls were soggy. The orange chicken tasted not fresh at all like it had been sitting there. The beef and broccoli just looking at it the meat was discolored like it was old or overcooked and the broccoli looked the same as well I didnt even give it a try because of how disgusting the other items were. He said when he walked in it was like a panda express. But this worse wouldnt even feed it to our dog! The only reason he didnt go back and give them the food and ask for partial refund (because the rice wasnt terrible it was still edible) is because he doesnt want it stinking up his truck and they barley understand him when he was trying to order. Never again. Never heard of this place and now I know why they're one second away from food poisoning someone. Health inspector should go pay them a visit. read more

I just stop by and one of ten cooks was smoking outside he finish his cigarette went back straight to the kitchen with out washing his hands so disgusting I told the lady in. Charge she spoke to him in their language I don't know what she said and still he didn't go and wash his hands so if you get food there and get sick you know why read more

food is amazing and super affordable! this was 10.99 and is better than panda express. the noodles hit the spot more than the rice but besides that would definitely recommend! service was really fast and place is clean! read more

The food was honestly ok here, maybe I ordered the wrong thing but the customer service was good there is room for improvement in this area as well, i just feel that this restaurant got unlucky with the location it is in. Most people in that area will only eat panda lol. The ambiance inside is solid and cozy. I definitely reccomend people to come try it if there are any curious people in the area! read more

The best flavored Chinese bbq pork and fried salt and pepper pork chop in town that is comparable to the best in Monterey Park. The hot and sour soup is one of my favorites. Overall, the portions and value are great, much better than other Chinese eateries in the area. read more

Have been here many times since and every time I get same great service and same great food. The eat in area is tiny so I usually get my plate "to go". Not much in the way of ambiance but that's not an issue for me as it really is more of a takeout type of place with nice people and fantastic food read more

We came here today for late lunch at 3pm and ordered some tasty Chinese food: 1) Chinese burger $5.99 - pretty good but needs cilantro 2) liangpi noodles $6.99 - yummy chewy! 3) Szechuan eggplant $3 - yes!! 4) hot & sour soup $6.99 - small portion size for the price 5) potstickers $8.99 read more

Seven Spice Kitchen - Liangpi noodles, potstickers, Szechuan eggplant, hot & sour soup, Chinese burger - Chinese Near Me - Newbury Park, California

Authentic Chinese food in Newbury Park! I like they serve fresh food Panda style but taste hundred times better. Also appreciate they offer a different menu with more authentic Chinese food choice like Liang Pi (kinda like cold noodle but it's much thicker and flatter) and Chinese burger (肉夹馍). Our favorite items so far are orange chicken, cauliflowers and egg plant. The portion is always very generous and food is always fresh and tasty. Fees like an extended Kitchen for people have Chinese stomachs like me! read more

**Good** Pepper salt fish - crispy, tasty yummy Black pepper fish is tender, flavorful mix with onions and peppers. OK: Shrimp fried rice - could be more fragrant wok fried Beef chow hor fun - noodle clumps homemade quality, not same restaurant standard as other dishes. read more

My favorite new Chinese food spot, outside San Francisco. The orange chicken is tender and flavorful all the way through, nothing like the nearby Panda Express. quality food and friendly service make this place a great little find. It is small and very few tables so best to get takeout. read more

Owner/manager is delightful. Great freshly made food. Cooks are rocking it in the kitchen keeping up with customer line. Good fast service unless there is a picky customer in front of you. Owner/manager always sweetly patient with them. Best hot & sour soup for a head-chest cold. Broccoli Beef has good portion of tender tasty beef. If they run out of broccoli then they use bok choy as a great substitute. Actual pieces of chicken in the Orange chicken, not just fried batter like other places. Fried rice always moist with good veggies. Same with the Chow mein noodles. This is an honest review from a long time customer. I do not know anyone personally that works here. read more

One of our favorite spots! Everything we've ordered is perfectly satisfying. The spicy crispy chicken is my favorite - soooo good! Kung Lao chicken, beef and broccoli, orange chicken, and soup dumplings are also delicious. I can't believe the quality and amount of food you get for such a low price. Stop by, you won't be disappointed. read more

Went for casual dinner one night Asked for a particular entre with little amount left. The clerk told me that they will refill the entree for my order then proceeds to scrap the little leftover and grease for to-go.. read more

The beef noodles were good but not too remarkable. I also had the spring rolls and felt the same way. Nice small shop to get a quick bite.

This humble hole in the wall puts out consistently superior Chinese food. In my opinion, the best in Conejo Valley. They have a buffet style in front and a full kitchen in back. There are a few tables but most people get take out. The prices are excellent and serving sizes are generous. My favorite dish on the buffet is the fish with black bean sauce, but I also think I could eat their orange chicken on a daily basis! The buffet is always good, but if you order from the menu (not the buffet) you will not be disappointed. The food is so tasty and ingredients fresh. It's a bit of a drive for me, but totally worth it for the quality and flavor. Some of my other favorites are Family Delight and the wonton soup - yummy! read more

This place is still as great as it has ever been! I wanted to clarify some other reviews that the owners of Seven Spice Kitchen have not owned Sesame Inn in Newbury Park since they sold it in 2018. So please do not compare each other's food, they are not the same :) read more

Used to be amazing- and was the only Chinese place we would go to. But must have new ownership as of a few years ago because quality and taste are just not the same. Orange chicken was their star before, crispy and meaty and sticky-sweet. Now it's too much breading, lots of small fried bits with no chicken, soggy and not particularly flavorful. Nothing particularly bad, but they no longer stand out from the plethora of Chinese restaurants in the area. read more

Seven Spice Kitchen's owners sold their old restaurant in town (Sesame Inn at 3327 Kimber Dr, Newbury Park, CA) and opened this restaurant. It's located in a strip mall diagonally across the street from Amgen where the Mexican grocery store, Mercado Guadalajara, is located. Seven Spice Kitchen is located next door to Tortilleria Guadalajara, a Mexican bakery. Parking can be challenging since the restaurant is in a small strip mall, but I have always been able to find parking. This is a small place with six tables: three "regular" tables that sits four people and three bar-height tables. There is a counter of buffet style pre-made food, just like at Panda Express, but it tastes much fresher. You can also order from their menus and they will make it new for you. They have two different menus, just like they had at Sesame Inn. There is a two page American menu and a two page Chinese menu. If you are Asian, they will most likely hand you both the American and Chinese menus. See attached photos of all the menus. The food is FANTASTIC, just like their food at Sesame Inn. Their spicy eggplant pre-made on the counter is perfection. Their Juicy Dumplings appetizers off the American menu are incredible. They are known as "soup dumplings" to Asians. It's like a soup inside a dumpling. DIRECTIONS: If you are right-handed, hold the spoon with your left hand. With your right hand, hold your chopsticks. Put one juicy dumping on your spoon. With your chopsticks, open the dumpling so you expose the liquid inside the dumpling. That's the soup. Drink the soup first and then eat the dumpling. Or just put one whole unopened dumpling in your mouth to eat. Be careful of the hot soup inside the dumpling. Seriously, their food is fabulous. The owners are super friendly and accommodating. When I was craving a spicy seafood noodle soup, they made it for me and it's not even on their menu (see attached photo). read more

Popped into Seven Spice with my mom and her caregiver for lunch today. She's a big fan of Chinese food and gave it a big thumbs up. I'm always a bit hesitant due to my sensitivity to MSG. So happy to report everything was delicious and no adverse reaction. Plus the servings are so generous. Great experience. read more

Actually fucking gas. I ain't paying for service I'm paying for a lot of great food for real cheap. Blows away any other fast casual Chinese spot I've been to. 5/5 from a broke college athlete which is how you know it gives enough. read more

Fast Food Sesame Inn!! Seven Spices is basically the Panda Express version of the Newbury park favorite, Sesame Inn. Think Panda Express but more authentic and with sesame red bean balls. Food: all the fan favorites are here on the hot plates for lunch combos: - Kungpao 3 flavors - Spicy Crispy Chicken - Chicken meatballs - Miso Eggplant - 6 others They also make anything fresh in the kitchen ala cart, if you're not into the whole heat lamps panda vibe. Cost: a great deal, you get can a combo meal and drink for under $10. Service: Phenomenal! "where everybody knows your name... and they're always glad you came". I used to frequent Sesame Inn and the women remembered me and treated our group like family. As more customers walked through the doors, we noticed that although we got celebrity treatment, everyone else was also getting great service. Grade A! Overall this place hits all the marks... also conveniently located a stones throw from Amgen. read more

Legitimate place for their noodles. A fellow international Chinese student suggested this place to me and I'm glad she did. It's a small mom and pop shop. Don't expect really comfortable decor. They have a small menu, but I think it works in their favor because they could just focus on serving stellar quality dishes. I never tried the dishes on the to-go section so I can't comment on that but I've tried the Liang Pi and 'Chinese Burger'. Liang Pi (5/5): Wow and wow! Definitely freshly made flat noodles..even if it wasn't handmade...the noodles are chewy and delicious when paired with the sauces. There is no meat provided and that's the way it is. Honestly, this rivals some of the Liang Pi I've tasted back in the San Gabriel Valley area and I'm shocked to taste such quality in Thousand Oaks. 'Chinese Burger' (2/5): This was really salty...Saving grace was the beautifully pan-fried bun. I'm sure if they toned down the salt, this would have been great. Looking forward to coming here in the future but please control the salt! read more
