Reviews for China Gourmet in Salem, OR
This is HANDS DOWN the BEST Chinese food restaurant in Salem. My co-workers and I eat here at least once a week. Food is so... fresh!!! The Owners are also wonderful people: Read more
What a fantastic experience I just had at this small family owned Chinese restaurant. It's a definite must go to and try. The... flavors are very fresh and not overpowering. I had 2 dishes and both were fantastic. Way superior to any other Chineserestaurant in town. Not a huge menu, but there's plenty to choose from and I can't wait to try more. So I did circle backaround and had two more dishes and this place is the real deal. The Kung Pao chicken is by far superior than any other Chineserestaurant around and the fried rice is really really light and flavorful as well. Everything I had was amazing. Pork with peapods and gourmet seafood udon noodle are great as well. Best part they are OPEN on Monday!!! Read more

Awesome Chinese, best I've had in a while. Small, but well decorated inside. Feels family run. Quick service, excellent... recommendations, but I'm guessing everything on the menu is good to excellent. The gourmet fried rice and sweet and sourchicken were a favorite. The sesame chicken was delicious, but not for everyone's palette. Kung Pao was highly recommended astheir number one dish, we'll try that next time. If Panda is average, this place is excellent. They use decent size chunks ofmeat, the breading is consistent, crispy, and the sauce perfection. They do not use msg or put sugar in the sauce. It's small,but they could handle a larger group if you call ahead and go at an off time. There's a small parking lot. Read more
The food here is absolutely amazing and delicious. Was blown away by the portion size and taste. In the photos here are garlic... beef (spicy) with steamed rice, seseme chicken with fried rice, and the beef Singapore rice noodles. You can choose differentmeat and even veggie options depending on your preference. The building is small and the parking is a little wonky. But I'mdefinately coming here for the food again and again. I got a 'super hot' (they have varying levels of spices you can choose fromif you ask the waitress). I felt a spicy pepper kick and can say it was surprising to finally have a food that was actuallyspicy (most places say food is spicy when my tolerance says otherwise). Read more
Jeff you shouldn't use toothpaste before you go out to eat, giving this place less then ***** Star's is just another place of... business being jealous for what these awesome cook's put out in this restaurant. I have to say this restaurant is absolutely thebest I have eaten at, I haven't had food this good in any Chinese restaurant in Oregon Although I do give honest reviews thisone takes 1st place, We had sesame chicken, mushroom chicken and gourmet fried rice with 8 amazingly tasty spring rolls was abetter deal and very healthy portions and piping hot. I would recommend anyone that thinks they have the best Chinese place toeat, to come try the best.. I'LL BE BACK!! oh not to forget the peanut people that give bad reviews, y'all know Chinese placesuse peanut oil and sauce it the way the food is cooked so maybe ya should keep eating American food, but I guess it's a way toget a free meal if your that hard up..

This place is small but full of 70s charm. The food is first rate Chinese American food with fresh ingredients. The flavors are... balanced with a yin yang thoughtfulness that will bring your tongue memories of travels abroad. Simple, honest and honorablecomfort food. Read more
