China Place Restaurant

*READ* Very shocked to see that there is any good ratings at this establishment. I have been to this restaurant a couple times. I am very confident to say that it is my last time me and my family will buy anything from here. The lady who works there claiming to be the “owner” is a total nightmare. Super unprofessional conduct towards customers and looks like she hates working there. She put shrimp in the pho when I’m allergic. It’s chicken pho what is shrimp doing in there? Was super unfriendly and did not want to do anything about it. I threw away my food. Also, there was two tiny micro shopped pieces of basil in there. She should understand that you need at least more than three basil leaves to enjoy the soup. By all means, this place should be avoided at all costs. Disputing the meal. Will let all my friends and family know and will post to other places.

Tasty broth might be under appreciated. Google map says this place needs reservation required, but it’s not true. You can just walk in. Food - I am judging this based on my pho experience only. Before I went I read a few reviews and some people said the food is bland. I can see why people say that. I ordered a pho. This is Cambodian food so their pho is not authentic but I have to give them a credit for the broth. However there are two problems... The soup is under seasoned. You can drink soup as a soup or broth. But not good seasoned enough for a noodle soup. The pho had minced garlic... why? I never tasted garlic in pho broth before and I think it is out of place. Every time the garlic piece comes in my mouth, it throws my taste off..the garlic absolutely kills the broth. Interior - it is small. You can sit maximum around 20 people. Service - there was only one Hispanic lady. Other reviewers mentioned the service was friendly here, but I didn’t feel that way. Parking - limited but available. Over all, this place is okay. Do I come back? Maybe not.

We ordered street meatballs and their house special noodles. PROs: the street meatballs are good; 3 meatballs on a skewer, 3 skewers.. Meat in the noodle soup was tender and cooked really well. Staff is friendly and checks on you. Food came out fairly fast. CONs: meatballs are not your full round size meatballs - they seem smaller. soup base is very lacking in flavor - it needed fish sauce or something. Could taste the hint of garlic. Noteworthy things: steamed bean sprouts are automatically added to the house special noodles and there's a lot of it. They do not have bottles of hoisin sauce or sriracha on the table - instead, a small side dish is given with hoisin sauce and chili paste with a wedge of lime. They will give you extra of any sauce as long as you ask. There's no Cambodian decor present inside the restaurant. Seating seems appropriate.

Their pho is the best!!! The owner selects prime beef for this noodle soup and it is ALWAYS tender!! I enjoyed the cucumber/lemon water that you must request if you want this little treat. Another favorite is the beef, rice, salad combo plate. The sauce is delicious and again the meat is excellent. Sunday afternoon is a good time to stop and enjoy anything on their menu.

There's very few places we go on a weekly basis. But this is in our permanent rotation. The food is delicious. You can order anything on the menu and can't go wrong. Favorites for me are the House Special, which is a lovely beef broth noodle soup with a hunk of bone marrow. I also love the Bah Bong noodles. Mmmmmmm, so delicious. Really, give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

This is a small restaurant, the food is very good and the staff is friendly. There is a parking lot in the little plaza. The store decoration is minimalist but cute. They recently changed their menu. *** update 02/13/19 *** We feel like that quality and quantity went down. Less meat in the beef noodle soup. The Vietnamese coffee isn't fresh, you taste it's been in the fridge for a while. So sad. We will again in few weeks or months.
