China Paradise Restaurant — Restaurant in Danville

Today I took my kids out to dinner to China Paradise Restaurant after we finished watching a movie at The Lot. After we ate the elderly man (waiter) took my card and came back stating very loudly that there is insufficient funds for everyone in the restaurant to hear. I was shocked because I have more than enough money $$$$ to blow through. He told me the receipt did not pop up when he ran it. I logged into my bank account and sure enough there is a transaction for China paradise Restaurant. (Pending but it did go through) I showed him my balance and my bank screen that they charged me and the amount was taken out to be allocated and it’s just pending. He made a rude comment. Mind you everyone is around is eating (customers) while this man is being hostel rude! Embarrassing me even future. He called the manager over I explained to her that we just were at the movies look all the transactions are pending. She says yeah it’s just pending my receipt didn’t print out so it didn’t go through. I show her my balance more then enough money to continue splurging wherever and also the money that was pulled out for the pending transaction. She tells me rudely call the bank. I tell her to run the card again at this point as she is embarrassing me and that it will show same thing posted and pending. She goes runs the card. She gets a receipt. FK the tip at this point. I’ve never been so embarrassed in my life and humiliated! I showed her now I have two transactions from China Paradise Restaurant. The only thing she says if both post come back. Forget it I’m opening a dispute. They should be ashamed treating their customer like a freak show. Instead of coming to the table and with manners asking ma’am can you please set aside with me. I need to talk to you. Instead they provided front row seats to the humiliation and embarrassment they caused for my family. Shame on you! Never going back. Called the bank they indeed charged my card twice a dispute is being open. Avoid like the plague! My phone also gets messages when transactions happen. It populated twice on my bank screen. To save someone else from a hellish...

Finally, my search for a good local Chinese restaurant is over. I find myself struggling with American Chinese food (I am from London). Typically the deep fried dishes have way too much puffy batter, and the meat to batter ratio is not way too low. Too often I find dishes too heavy, soggy and oily and leave me with a sick feeling after. China Paradise is not like this. They have nailed it. Really fresh food and they will cook it to your preference, low oil/sodium. Their deep fried dishes are actually crispy, and not too heavy with batter and have a good amount of meat. Dishes are always flavourful, always have lots of protein together with crispy veg but not oily. I’ve eaten take out from here four times in the last month and every time I’m impressed. Great job...

Really sad because prices online don’t match the NEW prices in stores making ordering for delivery a whole lot more expensive.

I absolutely love the food here and the waiters and waitresses are really nice in the restaurant -

I did however, placed a delivery order today and ordered based off of the prices showed on the website online, which are actually apparently outdated (which I learned after I ordered from a staff member)

Such a bummer because I paid $43 for an orange chicken and a bbq pork fried rice. Really yummy food but not a fan of the actual price not being explicitly mentioned.

But I definitely will be eating this for 2-3 meals....
