China House (Boca Raton)

Posted on April 7th, 2009 · Boca Raton Chinese

*****  China House, 9050 Kimberly Boulevard, Boca Raton, Florida 33434 (561) 477-0041.

Remember that movie “Groundhog Dog” where Bill Murray relives the same day over and over and over? Anyway…I think  you know where I am going with this review on China House, a “mom & pop” Chinese joint in Boca Raton.

Unless you have been living on the planet-Mars for the last 50 years, you know exactly what this joint looks like…my money also says that you know what the menu looks like and what the price-points are. For you Martians, loads of appetizers, meat-chicken-seafood entrees…tons of “specials” and combination plates…soup/egg roll/rice/entree/ice cream or pineapple chunks, give or take $7.95 for the whole shooting-match.

Let me make this one short and simple…China House is a NEIGHBORHOOD CHINESE JOINT…like, you live and work in the neighborhood. The food is good. The prices are good. The service is very pleasant. Is this “outstanding” Chinese food? Nope…but it is good stuff which is probably right up there with your favorite neighborhood eat-in/take-out.

The old Brooklyn “taste-test” netted me won-ton soup, egg rolls, roast pork fried rice, mooshu pork, shrimp with garlic sauce, pepper steak, sweet and sour chicken…everything was just fine, but like I said, “Ground Hog Day.”

China House is a good one to know about, if you live nearby…capice! The joint is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner.

    Sharon Stillman: Just had a chance to read your post. Nothing “oustanding” comes to mind in Coral Springs. Check “Chinese” category as there are a number of really good joints which I am sure are well within driving distance.

    Thanks for reading…

    I had a bad experience with China House.Placed a large order to be delivered and one of the dishes was awful. I called to have that one meal credited to my card and was told they would not do it. I called back to speak with the owner and was told he knew about the problem and did not care. I will never go back there again-bad way to do business. They have lost my business and several other people I have told about the incident.

    Food was ok, though they do not do substitutions.
