China Village — Restaurant in Jerome

Holy Crap, this food was pathetic, and soggy. I've moved to the magic valley from Utah a little more than a year ago. Chinese food down there was competitive and good. Since moving up here I tried the China Garden next to Ridley's, and while not as good as in Utah, it was still decent. So we decided to try this place to compare. The prices were more expensive, but the portions were larger. We ordered the sesame chicken and the hong kong chow mein. The whole meal was soggy as if it was boiled instead of fried/pan fried. The sesame chicken was boring, and the hong kong chow mein looks like they threw previously boiled beef strips with prepackaged vegitables from the super market. It claimed to have pan fried noodles in it, but I couldn't find the noodles until I ate most of the beef. When I finally got to the noodles, they seem nothing more than a slab of cheap ramen noodles. I also bought the wontons and the egg roll. The wontons had a centimeter sphere of meat in about 4 inches of tortilla, then deepfried until it became brick-like. They were so tough with so little meat that I had to toss the rest. The egg-roll was large, but also soggy. How everything becomes soggy, I don't really know (though with the wontons I wish they were soggier, that way I could actually bite through them).

Overall, the meal was pathetic, and we tossed the left-overs instead of saving them for later, which we have never done before. Don't waste your time here, there is a reason why no was there when I went at 6:00 on a...

I wouldn’t recommend this place. The food was not good. The waitress was nice, but the owner or manager wasn’t helpful. Ordered pork and seeds and it was over cooked and dry. The beef and broccoli was undercooked and hard. I ordered the mandarin chicken as I do at every Chinese restaurant and it was disgusting. The breading on the chicken was overly salty and not the right texture. The sweet and sour sauce was overly vinegary.

I ended up eating the cheeseburger and still paying for the mandarin chicken that I only took two bites of and was disgusted with.

Go to twin and get Chinese food, this place isn’t worth the price you pay to...

Finally tried the food here. They have new owners and they are very nice, Chinese food, cooked by Chinese people. We had the Cantonese Chicken, Shrimp in Lobster Sauce and Wor Wanton Soup. The Cantonese Chicken was very good, quality chicken and lighted breaded. The Cantonese sauce is thick and very tasty. Typical Shrimp in Lobster sauce, very tasty. The Wor Wanton soup was very good, many fresh vegetables and homemade light fried wontons.

Overall it was great meal and very affordable. You can definitely tell they use fresh ingredients. Staff is very nice. We...
