It was our (husband and wife) first time. We have been so disappointed with the lack of good Chinese restaurants in Vallejo. While driving through Vallejo down Springs Road we looked on Google, came across Combo Express. Great reviews. We purchased: Combination Fried rice, Fried porkchops, Fried Fish, HUGE Eggrolls. We found everything to be fresh, and delicious. And we not forget...the service was professional and kind. We will SPREAD the word! DELICIOUS
Again, this is the best Chinese takeout place ever. Combo plates are unbeatable in size and price. Flavors are consistent for over two decades that I've had the food - orange chicken, barbecue chicken, crispy chicken, chow mein, fried rice, beef broccoli. Although the crispy chicken can sometimes be too salty. Everything I've had is good. I miss the fried crispy anchovies. I hope this place stays open forever.
Unassuming place , not a place to of you want to sit and eat , however their niche is their take out . Food is decent. Not great but enough to feed 2 or three persons depending on your portion how how much one can eat . Friend vegetables spring roll is good and their potstickers , i like their eggplant with tofu and some of their veggie dish that you can order ala carte . Overall value for your money is there but taste wise okay not great .
What a pleasant surprise from this hole in the wall spot! This is probably the best Chinese takeout what I've found in Vallejo so far! The Yelp reviews did not disappoint. It is located in the same plaza as Island Pacific and Bank of America. On a weekend around 5pm the line was growing to almost out the door when I went in. Service was very quick and friendly. I ordered the family meal that feeds 2-3 and the beef wonton soup. It was enough food for four people (more specifically two people for two meals). For the combos I got both the chow mein and the fried rice, the potstickers, the spicy salty chicken, and the broccoli beef. Everything was good! They're best known for the spicy salty chicken. IMO it was a lot like popcorn chicken. It wasn't spicy to me. It was more salty and any heat came from the pepper. I really liked the beef wonton soup. They did not skimp on the beef. It was very tender and great on a winter day. Great value and even better taste. This will probably be our go to for Chinese take out going forward!
The food was delicious . Fresh and hot. Large portions. You can't sit inside, the line is always long. (But worth it). Make sure you are hungry when you go.
