China House - Alameda

This restaurant has been in Alameda for 30 years.And this was the first for meThe entrance is a flight of stairs that you must climb.

I read mixed reviews and was thus a bit skeptical eating at this place, but work a block away at the Hearing Zone so had to try it out.

It's not best Chinese food but it's probably good one in alameda. Staffs are nice here.

I order regularly from China House, usually during lunch. I think China House has the BEST Chinese lunch special on the Island. For a price of $11, you get your choice of entree with your choice of fried or steamed rice (no extra charge for fried), individual serving of soup and fried wonton. I LOVE IT! Because the portions are plentiful, I find myself having dinner time left overs, which is sooooo nice, especially with my busy work schedule. I usually order the Mongolian Beef, which is always a hit! Spicy, good amount of veggies, and the meat is so tender. In the past 3 weeks, we've also had the General Tso's Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork and the Orange Chicken. Every single one of these dishes *chef's kiss* Now, I'm hungry and going to order dinner from there right now. YOU SHOULD TOO!

So disappointed to hear that China House closed. does anyone know if any of their recipes could be made available? thinking specifically of beef wonton soup, beef wonton with gravy (soup), garlic chicken and ginger (pineapple) beef...
