Reviews for Chinese Village in Santa Cruz, CA
The best food in the 831 area. Everything is so fresh the honey walnut shrimp and chicken fried rice is so delicious. The egg... rolls are the best part they are fresh and come with orange sweet sauce. Read more
This is a very good Chinese restaurant with fair prices. They are in the midst of getting a beer and wine license and that will... be a really nice addition. The restaurant itself is very comfortable and nicely decorated. Read more
A little funky with the service. Waitress was a bit cold. Food was plentiful but basic. I don't think the meat is made up... there. Was like buffet food from overseas. When it got cold it was very chewy. But veggies are fresh. Price was good. But noalcohol even though it is on the menu? Read more
I tried this place because it had the best reviews for Chinese food near me. 110% would never go back. As soon as we walked in... there was a lady sitting at a table eating, a kid in her pajama sweats taking an order at a table for someone else and a cookwho looked right at us and said nothing. The lady sitting at the table looked at us a couple times before she came to help usand had an attitude the whole time. The pricing itself was disappointing. $10.99 for JUST orange chicken. I can go to any otherChinese place and they offer fried rice and chow mein with your entrees for $12. I said screw it and ordered the orange chickenanyways and my fiance orders a combination plate (they had only pork combo plates not chicken). We get our food and my orangechicken ended up being chicken with the orange sauce on the side for me to pour myself. The orange sauce was dark brown andsuper watery it was just a mess and for them to put it in a paper container just ended up more of a mess when it started leakingthrough the seems. My fiance opens his plate and they gave him a very small portion of sweet and sour pork (about 4-5 smallshrived up prices of pork) and a pile of sweet and sour sauce.. and the rest of the plate was dominated with rice and chow mein.They also didn't have forks so we had to drive up the street and grab forks from KFC. Between the ladies attitude and thedisappointment in the food we definitely won't be coming back Read more
The food tastes fine except it’s a bit too greasy and savory. Good value for the money. The food tastes better than Panda but... not as good as the authentic Chinese food from Silicon Valley. Read more
My family has been going to Chinese Village for over 30 years. Started with my Mom and now 3 generations later we all continue... to go there. Both in their original location and the current one. I take my grandkids there all the time. It is our “go to”Chinese food place. Love their hot and sour soup! I can’t say I’ve had a bad thing there, all is good. Most of the dishesthey make I have not found to be as good anywhere else. It is family owned and operated. I really like that and they are sowelcoming and friendly that you feel that they are your friends serving you good, good for you medicinally too, food. Irecommend them highly. Read more
I ordered hot and sour soup and kung pao chicken to go. The hot and sour soup was okay but the Kung Pao chicken was just a mess... of over cooked zucchini and some tasteless meat. I'm not sure it was chicken, it was inedible. A complete waste of money! Read more
The food was delicious! We ordered #3 it was more food than we could eat. The staff was very busy attending to all their... customers needs. Highly recommend to have a meal here. Read more
