    Never a bad meal here. It's always hot and fresh and quick. They have by far the best egg rolls and crab rangoon. I never use a menu and always order the amazing chicken extra spicy. The staff is amazing along with the owners and their sons and daughter. They have carryout and dine in and good hours. Lunch is a lunch portion but still plenty to eat. Their low main noodles are also amazing. Never had a bad item here or bad service

    This is my favorite restaurant! The servers are excellent! You will always get what you need and they will always refill your drinks without you even thinking about it. The service is very quick! Soups/appetizers arrive within 5-10 minutes and your entreé arrives another 5 minutes later! Don’t even get me started about the food! The food is excellent quality! No Chinese restaurant has ever been able to compete with this one. I always order the Empress Chicken. The chicken, rice, veggies and plum sauce are fresh, hot, and delicious! It’s a very clean and nice sit down restaurant that also does carry out if you can’t stay inside. 100/10 the best Chinese restaurant you will ever go to! ⭐

    Ordinarily we order takeout. However my oldest daughter and I enjoy dining in. You can sit wherever you like. Generally there isn't a wait for seating. Even the lunch portions are large. We never finish and normally bring home food. The service is quick and friendly. They always keep our beverages refilled.

    The food is good here. Worth stopping in. Hadn't eaten here in quite a few years. Glad to see it's still the same.

    China Pavillion is hands down the best Chinese we have been to. We frequented the establishment often when we lived in the area. Since moving away four years ago we have tried other places and none compare. We have the chance we go back to China Pavillion we stop in. The service is fantastic. The food is made to order, fresh, perfectly cooked, comes from the kitchen straight to your table.They never disappoint. UPDATE 12/23/23 Finally able to get my China Pavilion fix. My husband, myself, my three grown children and my granddaughter all enjoyed lunch there today. It is under new ownership and is still just as good as it has always been.......

    Great food, fast and friendly service. Inside has plenty of seating, with windows on the south end of the building, which gives the interior plenty of lighting. Would be nice if they had the kitchen out in the lobby for more transparency, like some of the Japanese restaurants do up north. Pricing was pretty good too, as I got plenty of food to go with leftovers for under 10bucks. Check out the menu and grab a bite when you're in the area!
