China Gourmet…very good Chinese joint in Deerfield Beach, operative words here, VERY GOOD
Not sure if this is a trend—but I am finding that more and more South Florida Chinese joints—now. also have Japanese menus. So I guess, that China Gourmet is a “trendsetter” because it offers both Chinese and Japanese food. You can check both menus/prices at www.chinagourmet.info.
China Gourmet has been around for something like 40 years…kinda surprised that I hadn’t heard about it until 3-weeks ago…Anyway, using my “Jewish-Brooklyn” circa 1950 taste-test of- wonton soup, pan fried dumplings, bbq ribs, egg rolls, roast pork fried rice, sweet & sour chicken, pepper steak, General Tso’s chicken, shrimp in black bean sauce, vanilla ice cream, fortune cookie—I am happy to report, that China Gourmet’s food is very good.
Let me sum China Gourmet up for you—now follow me here…I enjoyed every dish that I had. With that in mind, no-one item totally knocked my socks off, like Bamboo Wok’s (review: 5/7/10) boneless ribs or pan fried dumplings…or Wingloon’s (review: 1/18/11) garlic chicken did. “Solid” is the best way to describe this joint. By the way, don’t let the GOURMET part of China Gourmet’s name throw you off, this is a neighborhood–mom & pop–combination plate specials galore- joint.
One final note, I didn’t try the Japanese stuff, afterall—this is really a Chinese restaurant.
China Gourmet is open Monday-Thursday 11:30-10pm, Friday 11:30am-10:30pm, Saturday 1pm-10:30pm, Sunday 3pm-10pm.

Thanks for reading…
More than a take-out joint. Sushi bar, plus tables for +/- 30. Decent food and terrific value !
Any time you can feed two for under $20 – It’s a deal. I’m always impressed by restaurants with glass walls around the kitchen. If you saw what went on in some places, you’d never eat there again. It’s become my “go to” Chinese place.
China Gourmet is wonderful. They serve great food and their prices are very low. I had a full meal for under $10.00. I give them a 5 star excellent rating. By Gregg L. Friedman MD, Psychiatrist, Hallandale Beach, FL
