Gourmet China

Authentic Chinese food! We stopped here on our way to Gatlinburg! It's the savory kind of food after a long road trip. Real spicy noodle. My husband and I ordered one cold dish plus Noodle plus three main dishes. We love them all. We saw many pickup orders while we were dining in. Ignore those negative review...

Pork Soup dumplings tasted and looked store bought. The Sichuan chicken was not spicy and had noticeably more vegetables than protein. Very dark/low light. Food was brought out pretty quickly.

I just went to this place with a good friend of mine and we enjoyed this amazing food while having a good conversation. I had the beef noodle soup and it was some of the best Chinese food I’ve ever had! It was spicy but extremely flavorful. I definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Chinese food

I've been looking for a real Chinese restaurant for a while and this place did not disappoint me. The food was fresh and well-seasoned. They have 2 menus, a Chinese American and a Sichuan menu. Real Chinese food (not Chinese American) is very diverse and rich in flavor and unfortunately, it is difficult to find. Cumin beef was my favorite.

Dan Dan noodles were super spicy but I couldn't stop eating them! Delicious!!! They were on top of drink refills. The shrimp dumplings were a little too fishy than I'm used to, but my husband liked them. Soup dumplings were perfect!

This is easily the best Chinese food in all of Greensboro and Winston-Salem. The Sichuan menu is amazing, and authentic. Even their Chinese American offerings are way better than other restaurants. If you love authentic cuisine, and spicy food, definitely check out Gourmet China!

Beautiful birthday lunch! Not only was it delicious but my body feels very well and healthy now! I like spicy and unusual so I got the ox tongue and tripe. Absolutely delicious and spicy enough to take my tongue off if I didn't keep it moving, LOL Definitely going back and I'll try the vegetarian stuff next time for you guys. *This is a lovely Mom and Pop organization. It is more of an organic flow so don't expect assembly line efficiency necessarily. Staff is incredibly attentive and will get to you when it's your turn. It's more of a collaboration than a demand situation.

Let me start with the food. It was excellent. The service was OK. The atmosphere was nothing special but the food made up for that. Recommend this little restaurant we will be back sometime If we ever in the area.

One of the few true Sichuan Style Chinese restaurants in the area and I must say they do not disappoint if that's what you're looking for. Definitely will be back! If you're looking for a more "Americanized" Chinese restaurant, there may be better options out there, but if you do come here make sure you explicitly ask for the "American" menu

I read some reviews here and we sought this location out on Battleground/ New Garden near Trader Joe's around 3 p.m. We got Spring rolls and I got the Mongolian Beef and my wife got Sweet and Sour chicken. Everything was freshly made and delicious. There were take out customers coming in and they have a nice area with tables and booths to eat. Will be back.

This is it! This is the place that turned me into craving authentic Chinese food. We've been here a handful of times and I love this place. The service is outstanding, attentive and friendly. I love that even if it is busy, it's still not loud or too much; perfect for a date night. We always order the Sichuan Dumplings and they are outstanding. I usually order a different entree every time, just to try something new. It's all been amazing! Check this place out for to go or dine in.

I've eaten here a number of times times recently, and probably better than 25 times since they opened more than 10 years ago, so I figured I'd update my previous reviews. This is 1 of my 2 favorite Chinese restaurants in the Triad that offers a variety of traditional Sichuan dishes, as well as many of the usual Chinese American choices. In fact, to my knowledge, these are the only restaurants in the Triad that offer any dishes that approach any aspect of authentic Chinese cuisines, and both are Sichuan based! That other restaurant is New Sichuan in Winston Salem. I don't know if there is any family or business connection between the two, but they are strikingly similar in a number of ways - from the front of their menus, to their web page layouts, to the names and descriptions of many of the dishes they offer. Or it may just be that they use the same advertising firm! Another common element is both are family operations which contributes strongly to the consistent quality of food and service! Dishes that I've had here recently: Dan Dan Noodles* (amazing) Pork Soup Dumplings* Spicy Doubled Cooked Pork* Tri-Pepper Chicken* Sichuan Wontons* ( amazing) Cucumber with Garlic Sauce* (you just need to try it) Fish In Sichuan Style Sauce Kung Pao Chicken & Shrimp Sichuan Cold Noodles Crispy Pork Ribs Sour Potatoes Cumin Lamb Mongolian Beef* (not an authentic dish, but excellent) Bok Choy The dishes with * are my very favorites, though there is not an item on this list that I would hesitate to recommend! In fact, I've only had two items here that I did't care for - Steamed Pork Dumplings (mushy texture, like paste) and the Hot Pot with Chicken (like they just cleaned out the frig). These dishes, except for the Crispy Ribs, Sour Potato, Crispy Pork Ribs, and Cumin Lamb, are also on the menu at New Sichuan, and I have had them there as well. Since comparison is inevitable with so many similarities, I would give a slight edge to New Sichuan - on portion size in general, and their versions of Dan Dan Noodles (big portion loaded with excellently prepared Baby Bok Choy), Sichuan Wontons (portion size is equal, but New Sichuan Red Chili Oil is the very best), and their Garlic Sauce is outstanding, especially on the Cucumber dish. Gourmet China does have a double handful of lunch specials Mon - Fri for under $10, but there are few traditional Sichuan dishes on the lunch menu. New Sichuan does not offer lunch specials currently. And while the above list of dishes is lengthy, there are still a good double handful here that I want to try, and if possible, I will. Ambiance - 4 Food - 5 Service - 4.5 Value - 5

So I've been to this spot under the old Chen's name - but like Zac G., I wanted cold sesame noodles. The only spot I found was in Burlington - and I am not making another run there! The redone space is very cozy and I would sit down for a meal here. The service is super polite and on point. So to the Sichuan Noodles... the Cold Sesame Noodles you find in so many Northeast Chinese Takeaway places is just a variation on Sichuan noodles and Dan Dan Noodles. Most use a mix of Sesame Paste and Peanut Butter or ground peanuts - but the dish rarely has whole peanuts. This one did, and they use more of a mei fun noodle (think angel hair pasta) than thicker lo mein noodles (spaghetti sized egg noodles). That made a big difference too. Definitely going back and going to try some other vegetarian dishes. Highly Recommended!

Finally!!!! A place with an Authentic flavor of GREAT Chinese food!!!! I've been looking for a good Chinese restaurant and I've finally found it! The ambiance is quaint like small NY Chinese spots (WoHop) and the food is simply delicious! The owners (husband and wife) are very gracious and humble. You can tell it's a family business (a little more training is needed for workers helping). Otherwise it's a MUST when you want GREAT Chinese food (non-chain). Unfortunately something didn't agree with my stomach, but my mouth & nose really enjoyed it!

The food was absolutely amazing! My family and I came for lunch and ordered sesame chicken, general tao chicken, and crab Rangoon. We also ordered green tea and wonton soup. Everything was great and we will be back again! Side note: They don't have pork dishes

Solid spot for some authentic Chinese/Sichuan dishes. (Also still has the American Chinese dishes for some people..). Good overall and has been consistent throughout the years. Food is fresh and I appreciate the traditional dishes they offer and how they actually taste...Chinese. The spice level on some dishes aren't as spicy as say a New Sichuan but overall still good flavor. There was much more seating pre-Covid days and the limited seating became apparent quick - as the dining room filled up and MANY patrons waiting at the door. My only main gripe would be the service. You get good service and what you need when you do but often you have to call on them yourself to come by. Would recommend overall and can't think of any place better in GSO that carries really good Szechuan dishes.

Hands down, Gourmet China is my all time favorite Chinese restaurant in Greensboro. The food is authentic, not just your standard Americanized Chinese food... I order take out and delivery from here at least once a month. When they are closed, (mainly Tuesdays), I am forced to try other restaurants to see if they match up, but they never do. As for the food, I have some main go to entrees I like to order, but due my recent experiences of trying new restaurants, I have been encouraged to try new dishes at GC rather than just my go tos. This time we tried the sesame chicken in place of the usual orange chicken and the kung pao chicken in place of my diced spicy chicken. Both new dishes were delicious and we have added them to our go tos when ordering from here! Also portion size is huge, I usually have enough leftover for one or two more meals... Bonus! Gourmet China is the bomb, you should try it for yourself!

Perfect for quick take lunch take out. Super fast service !! Dumplings were full of flavor. Hot and sour soup was good. Not my favorite version. Egg roll - was an average egg roll A+ for speediness, and flavor for fast food takeout. I will order in the future!!

Ordered takeout from here on a Saturday night and was quoted 20 minutes. It was ready on time. I had a spring roll, wonton soup, and moo goo gai pan (with white rice). The spring roll lacked any real flavor. The wonton in the wonton soup was really good, but the broth had an odd aftertaste. My favorite was the moo goo gai pan. The sauce was just the right amount with everything mixed together. It was a lot of food so I had another serving the next day. Honestly, the moo goo gai pan tasted even better as leftovers (which is not a bad thing). The cashier was very friendly. If I'm in Greensboro looking for takeout, I'd try this place again and get different starters.

We drived 80+miles to here but they closed but website still shows open till 20:30.So disappointed!!

Gourmet China has been one of my spots for comfort Chinese food for a while now. Every dish I've ever had has been full of flavor, spice and tender. Usual go-tos are sticky battered chicken or mongolian-style like beef with rice. Every now and then I'll indulge in some seafood. I usually round out my meal with their egg flower soup. Loaded full of crunchy noodles, it's the most velvety soup you'll find. Their dumplings, rangoons and rolls are some of the best I've ever had.

I ordered the soup pork dumplings and vegetable lo mein and was completely satisfied! This is genuinely a big deal for me because I'm currently struggling with hyperemesis gravidarum again.. ifykyk The soup pork dumplings were SO good. Perfect pop of rich broth and a generous amount of pork-- the sauce was sweet, kind of like a light teriyaki? It paired perfectly with the rich flavors or pork and didn't overwhelm it. Not heavy at all. HIGHLY recommend! Last time I had dumplings this food was in London. The lo mein is also perfectly sauced and balanced with the vegetables. Not too salty, very savory, lots of flavour.. and maybe the best part? Our 19 month old loves them!! I happily let him steal as much as he wanted-- parents, you understand lol. When a toddler loves a new food, you compliment the chef, and that's why I wanted to leave this review! I actually came here several years ago with friends who were both acquainted with various Asian cultures, as well as friends from different places in China. This is the only Chinese restaurant in GSO they went to because of its authenticity-- high praise!!

This place is LEGIT! It's the only Chinese place in Greensboro area that actually makes their food spicy naturally and listens to you-they amp up the spice if asked! Very reasonably priced for the quantity and quality of food you get. The menu has something for everyone and I can't wait to try more dishes soon-it's hard to get past that kung pao chicken though!!!

I got takeout to bring to a friend and the chicken lomein was good but the eggplant with garlic sauce was wonderful! Slightly spicy, silky, and dee

The place is clean and not too crowded when we went for early dinner. The pork dumpling and sauce were flavorful. The fish in the spicy fish soup was tasty; the soup's spice was tolerable, but the soup itself does not have much flavor other than the spice. I wish there was more vegetables in that dish. Our server was a young kid who needs to smile a little.

This place consistently makes the best authentic Chinese food. We eat family style like they do in China and like we did as well when we lived there. Other families were ordering their own individual dishes so that's a great alternative too. I can't rave enough about it!

Great food and service. Best Chinese food in the area. Great fried rice. A+++++++++++++

During my decade-plus living in Greensboro, I was always on the hunt for cold sesame noodles, yet it never occurred to me to check out Gourmet China (a casualty, perhaps, of their proximity to Giacomo's and Melt, but I digress). The Sichuan cold noodles offered here aren't an exact match - the sauce is thinner and tangier - but they are pretty damn satisfying in their own right. At $10 (sans protein), they aren't cheap, but it's a commendable portion for the money. Given that I popped in briefly during an off-hour for takeout, I'm hesitant to say yay or nay on the whole Gourmet China experience. I will say that the cold noodles were tasty and fulfilled a craving and that there are enough tantalizing authentic Sichuan dishes (more so dan dan noodles and cumin lamb - I'll pass on the intestine) to inspire a potential return.

We went there for lunch. Menu was extensive & food was good. Seating was available immediately & servers were attentive. Thank you

I covered here a month or so ago with my kids and another adult. The service was abysmal. They seemed bothered by me bringing my kids in for dinner. I had to constantly ask for things like refills and utensils. They didn't offer chopsticks to kids or adults. The food was good. The ambiance left much to be desired given I had a part lot of five and subpar service.

I only discovered this place a year ago and I live right across the street. Food is flavorful and very tasty. When you walk in the atmosphere is quite cozy and welcoming. Everyone is so friendly and your order comes out quickly. I have reviewed them previously but I tried something new tonight! Yay Tonight I ordered the chicken noodle soup, as its a cold night and soup would be perfect. The broth flavor is excellent and hit the spot. The chicken was tender. The only thing I did not like were the noodles. They were way to soft and kind of dissolves in your mouth. If you like that then this soup is for you!!! I like a more firm noodle in my soup. Otherwise belly full, feeling satisfied and warm Ciao for now

Ordered carry out and it was very good. Sesame Chicken with brown rice and Mongolian beef with fried rice, two egg rolls. Would order again - best Chinese carry out I have had in a long time. Would like to dine in sometime. Food was well packaged and ready on time.

A fun fact about me is that I spent 7 years of my life, ages 11-18 in China, and lemme tell you.... My life's goal is find authentic Chinese cuisine here in the triad. This spot meets those expectations. The pork soup dumplings were incredibly flavorful snd offered that perfect "pop" of soup in your mouth. The sweet soy sauce that accompanied it was a great addition. Eggs and tomatoes is my favorite authentic dish. It wasn't on the menu but the kitchen made it special for us. It tasted like home The Kung pao chicken was spicy and full of flavor. The combo of chicken and peanuts pairs with the authentic flavors is outstanding. Lastly, I got the string beans. In my opinion, they weren't as soft as I like them but the flavor was on point. I will definitely be regularing this place. Well done.

For starters i just want to say this place is racist!!! i ordered the beef and broccoli & had hair in my food so i kindly asked the server if they can just make the food to go. Which resulted in them claiming that i put the hair in the food. Instead of them making it to go they made it for me to eat in. I asked for the "manger" some super young guy comes out and i told him that i would just like the chicken and broccoli due to the beef being under cooked. "manger" was very rude told my spouse to stop eating her food and to leave and not return to the establishment. Oh & the cherry on top was once but twice i seen a mice run back and forth!!!!. 0/5!!! NEVER AGAIN

Favorite Asian restaurant in Greensboro!! Hands down best Sichuan options and they offer chow fun (or wide thick noodle) which is hard to come by! They're located near Trader Joe's & Golds gym off battleground in a strip with their own parking lot. Tonight my parents and I ordered takeout which it was their first time having the food and they loved it!! I would consider them pretty picky when it comes to good Asian cuisine considering their military background and being stationed in San Fran, Hawaii and even Korea. They loved it!! The hot & sour soup was perfectly spicy and tangy! Came with the good crunch noodle chips too! My mom got the beef & broccoli which the beef was extremely tender and broccoli cooked to perfection! My dad got the chicken chow fun noodles - he ate them all! Which their serving sizes are pretty hefty but he enjoyed them so much. And I tried their Sichuan chicken which had a little spice and just the right dose of Chinese 5 - SO DELICIOUS! Chicken was all fresh white meat and it was filled with fresh vegetables (onion, broccoli, mushroom, snow peas, green peppers & carrots) in a spicy brown sauce. We also shared their pork soup dumplings which came with a sweet dipping sauce (sort of a teriyaki flavor - very good but sweet), the pork and broth in the dumplings honestly tasted great on their own! They also have a really good chili oil you can request for on the side to add extra spice to any dish! I always enjoy their food and the service is always great too! They do have dine in again which looks nice inside but I always order takeout! You can call in or order online so it's super convenient! Never a disappoint and so glad they're right around the corner!!

Best Chinese place I ever been two great food great price very friendly staff and fresh food

Back for a second indulgence. This time I was craving sautéed tofu with mixed vegetables on a spicy brown sauce. On the menu it is called Homestyle Bean Curd. It was a rainy day so I lollygagged over a lot of jasmine tea and then dined on my absolutely divine entree. Such an enjoyable experience. I took home a container of hot and sour to enjoy the next day. I might have found my new Chinese home!! Very attentive and pleasant wait staff.

I just ordered thru Uber Eats and am thrilled that I found my go to place for Mongolian Beef and Hot n Sour soup. I was having a horrific place finding the same style of Mongolian Beef that I used to get out west. I would find a place with good Mongolian Or good Hot n Sour soup. I have to say BOTH are Great here and everything was packaged well and with care!! I will be coming back for sure! The service was top notch! I don't know about the Ambiance as this was delivered to me. But I will visit there soon. Mongolian Beef

This is easily my favorite Chinese spot in all of greensboro/the triad. They have americanized options as well and traditional cuisine. The food always comes out quick and piping hot even if I am getting Doordash. The crab ragoons and egg drop soup are my go tos on the menu, but I've never had a bad thing here.

Easily the best Chinese food in Greensboro. Sesame Chicken is always spot on along with their egg drop soup. The lunch special is only $7.50. I just wish they were open on Tuesdays. I go here once or twice a month, sometimes just once bc I don't want to burn myself out

First time there today (Lunch). I ordered Sweet and Sour Chicken with fried rice. I received white rice and 14 itty-bitty tidbits of chicken inside very thick fried and crunchy breading (perhaps 75% breading) with about 1 cubic inch of sweat sauce in a dish for dipping and the promised egg roll. Having had this S&S choice elsewhere numerous times I expected some veggies in the mix with the chicken ....but not here per their definition. Because of all the good reviews here I will try again and order something else, hoping for better. I really had to laugh at the fortune cookie ... the so-called fortune paper inside had a QR code for me to scan! Is nothing sacred ????

Fresh, friendly, and on time. Very quiet and ambiance is nice. The food tastes amazing. Please go! You won't regret it

Watched (stared and gave rude looks at) me the whole time I was in the restaurant as the only costumer, shielded her child from me as she walked by. I greeted them as I came in and was quiet for my visit. I don't understand why she acted that way except for being completely racist.

Ordered sesame chicken but most the chicken was overcooked and just breading. Paid about $15 and was expecting some quality eats

I've eaten Chinese food in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Hawai'i (where there are some exceptional Chinese restaurants). Gourmet China, in my opinion, offers the best and most authentic Chinese food that I have eaten in North Carolina.

Really great Chinese food! I ordered take out from Gourmet China --- sesame chicken with white rice and an egg roll. The sesame chicken was easily some of the best I've ever had. Flavorful, not dry, cooked beautifully. The egg roll was tasty, too, but could have maybe used some more seasoning in the filing because it was bordering on bland. The delivery was incredibly quick. I think I received the order about half an hour after I placed it, which was a really wonderful surprise. Will definitely order from this place again!

I believe this is the best Chinese restaurant in Greensboro. Szechuan style of cooking with heavy spices and oils. The flavors are excellent and unlike any I have experienced before. The Sichuan wontons with spicy oil are excellent. A nicely steamed wonton bathed in oil and chili peppers. I found these to be better than the soup dumplings as the flavors were simply more interesting and complex. Favorite entrees are the beef with spicy sauce. Again, heavy use of peppers and very spicy. The Kung Pao Chicken is also excellent and only slightly spicy. I was surprised at the sweetness of the crispy chicken with Gary sauce. The chicken was nicely prepared and was indeed crispy but I did not enjoy the sweetness. All in all, a new favorite.

Best Chinese restaurant I've been to. The staff was friendly and welcoming and patient. The price was good for the amount of food. And the food was light and not greasy like we know Chinese food to be. The place is clean and quiet.

Very delicious food and great service !! the egg rolls were Thebes I have had in a long time . Will definitely come back to try other dishes. My husband had the general Tso's chicken and it was flavorful and tender. My noodles were tasty and I now wish I had taken the rest home to go.

My first experience here was dine in. And it was amazing! I loved the food and it was the best Chinese food I've ever had. We decided to order take out and have a movie night at home. I ordered the sesame chicken, general Tso's chicken, and Kung pao Chicken. The first time we had it, the chicken was crunchy yet dripping in sauce, so good. But this time, they were soggy. And some may not mind but some of my family is texture picky. So it was pretty sad. The kung pao chicken was dry! I think I added duck sauce and sriracha to try to make it better. But overall our take away from this was, no take out for us from here! Next time, we dine in! Way better experience inside the restaurant, and there's plenty of sitting. The order was placed through the phone and was pretty easy to do. We ordered the spring rolls and got egg rolls instead, no biggie, they were tasty. Our order was quoted to be ready in 20+ minutes. 8/10 don't recommend take out!

After trying several different places, I have to say that this is the best Chinese restaurant in the Triad! Not only is the food delicious, but it is well-priced, authentic, and the menu has great variety. Every time I order takeout from here, the food is prepared quickly, doesn't lose quality compared to how its served for dine in, and is packaged extremely well for transport. I really appreciate the attention to detail when it comes to the packaging! The food quality is also superb, especially the Sichuan wontons with red oil, Chongqing noodles, and garlic chicken. The flavors are a good balance of sweet, savory, and spicy while the texture has a great crunch and tenderness. Overall, this is my go-to place for Chinese food and I highly recommend that others try it too.

I had been wanting to stop in to try this place and I am glad I picked up lunch from there today! I was surprised when I walked in to see a nice little restaurant, I thought it was just a in and out take out counter. There was a note on the door saying dine in soon. The food was super good, the perfect portion for lunch. Can't wait to come back and eat here in person.

My husband and I went here for an early dinner and it was so yummy. We got egg rolls, egg drop soup, lo mein, and kung pao chicken. The service was perfect and timely. We went at an earlier time so no one was there, thankfully. It was peaceful. Highly recommend!

I ordered the Mongolian beef to go. The restaurant inside is bland and depressing. The Mongolian beef had far too many vegetables in it and not enough beef. I had never seen so many vegetables in Mongolian beef. The sauce was delicious though.

WE've been there six times. The food was delicious each time. The lunch specials are a tremendous deal.

Today was my first visit. The chicken & broccoli was delicious! Ordered online and our food was ready in 17 minutes. Great service and def worth a visit if you love Chinese food. Wasn't thrilled with the egg rolls. They were really small and harder than I like them but overall a great experience.

Overcooked and not well prepared. I ordered: 1) Vegetable Dumplings -- The best of the lot, though they were small and expensive for 8 flat dumplings) 2) Hot Pepper Beef with black bean sauce -- The beef was way overcooked, there were equal jalopena peppers for strips of beef which took away from the taste and left just hot and no beans in the black been sauce. The scallions and green peppers were tasteless and overcooked as well, and 3) Crispy Chicken with Garlic Sauce - The chicken was leathery tough and overcooked. The chicken pieces were randomly chopped, leaving bits of jagged bone in every piece (really not necessary for authenticity), and parts of the chicken were mealy. It may have been an off night, but expensive for a poorly prepared meal. Still looking for a good Chinese restaurant in Greensboro (sigh).
