Reviews for Tong Fong Low in Oroville, CA
Wow! This place is always great! Good food, outstanding service! We will definitely be back!
Seated right away. Staff was very friendly. We ordered cream cheese and crab wontons, chicken chow mein- no veggies for our... kids, Mongolian beef and steamed rice, and kung pow chicken with extra heat and steamed rice. I was shocked at the pricing forthis place, $20 per plate, the chicken chow mein was around $11 tho. But then the price made sense when these heaping platescame out within 5-10 minutes of ordering. But then again most Asian restaurants have very large servings, these were bigger thannormal. Food tasted good, the plain chicken chow mein was bland but nice and hot. The cream cheese and crab wontons were good,the sweet and sour sauce tasted weird tho, tangy with a bitter aftertaste. The Mongolian beef and Kung Pow chicken wasdelicious! The reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 is I was disappointed that I could not ?upgrade? a beef chow mein to having theMongolian beef. Any place I?ve ever been to join can have any flavoring choice of meat with your noodles. Here, you can?t. Plusthe plates are very expensive so you?d have to choose or get both. Seems silly, but Its a commodity I really appreciate. Also Ido wish they had half plates. These massive plates of food are borderline ridiculous. Overall, I?ll go again, but I?d ratherorder one or two things for the whole family to pick up and eat at home than sit in the restaurant and everyone choose what theywant. Just too expensive.

Tong Fong Low... what more needs to be said. I was a big fan when they had a restaurant in Chico, but due to COVID19 and family... emergencies, it was shut down to concentrate on other matters. But in Oroville it's STILL going strong! Zero wait time to beseated, and the arrival of your food, served piping hot and fresh, was in a blink of an eye. Nothing has changed in service,taste, or portion sizes. Did we order too much...sure, only to ensure leftovers for lunch the next day. The flavors for everydish is outstanding, as is the portion size. I prefer to order ala cart, but the lunch and dinner specials are priced perfectlyfor 2-4 people. I will continue to drive from Chico for this establishment. They HAVE NEVER disappointed... so please, yet itonce and you won't regret it. Read more
The owner is amazing. She remembers us and asked how her family is doing every time. She runs very efficient restaurant. She has... amazing stuff they're so friendly and again efficient. The restaurant is clean even though it's always busy. We love the walnutshrimp the drop flower soup and the veggie egg rolls kind of a staple with us:-). I don't think there's anything we don't likeabout them from those. Except that they close at 8:30 :-(. We are kind of late Birds. Read more

Like somebody else said the HK Special Chow Mien was good. The noodles are the crispy kind. The other specialty plates we got... with sweet and sour pork with fried rice and some other kind of noodles was nothing to write home about. The pork seemed that itwas fried before and refried, so it seemed old. However, the portions were big and service was great! Read more
Decent Chinese food with a wide selection of classic dishes. The Scheuan is particularly good. Good service, nice if basic... decor. Amazing value - a single dish is enough to serve 2 or 3 adults for less than $20. Read more
