Great China — Restaurant in Santa Rosa

Absolutely the best Chinese food in Sonoma county and probably Marin county too. The walnut and pineapple prawns are to die for. Their Moo goo guy pan is beautiful with well cooked vegetables, chicken breast with a light brown sauce. I adore our regular order of pork pot stickers, big fried shrimp, hot and sour soup and prawn chow mein.

The usual like orange and lemon chicken is delicious. Also sweet and sour pork with green peppers cooked perfectly so good my mouth is watering.

IMO their paper wrapped chicken needs cilantro. But it's still good.

Their lunch specials are huge and include a crab raggon usually (or other appetizers), rice or chow mein and a big serving of any entrees even ones not on lunch specials. You may just get charged a bit more.

Only bad thing here imo is the dipping sauce for the pot stickers. It's oily and orange and has hardly any taste. I make my own with white vinegar, soy sauce, chopped green onions and a tiny bit of either teriyaki sauce or sugar. Jenny Lowe's used to make a sauce like mine.

I've been going to Great China for over 3 decades and even when I moved to Greenbrae I used to drive up to get it. It's the THAT good. Service is always great. I swear this one lady has been there for decades and hasn't aged a bit! Magic food ;) Highly recommend you...

I absolutely love the people at great china restaurant. HOWEVER , Am I the only family who can agree that the foods have changed and more often than not have NO TASTE AT ALL. ! ? ., now being under new ownership I feel they have tried to save money through changing their recipes. One evening before COVID 19 my entire family went to dinner there 4 out of the 7 items we ordered were tasteless, one of the dishes was beef chow main I asked for only bean sprouts cooked with it instead of veggies. They put raw cold bean sprouts on top of the warm beef chow main. I looked at my family and did say a word. We were all so surprised how much the food has changed. When we saw new ownership taking place we thought it would just be getting better from what was already GREAT BEFORE.

The first few times the food came out tasting bad I didn't say anything but today we bought lunch and waited to eat it for dinner tonight and the pot stickers were completely dry , and the taste was awful !! We don't want to take anything back because owners get offended and end up treating you badly in the end...

It was late and we wanted Chinese and this was the closes to home. I'd not been there in years because I remember years ago not being crazy about the place, but I figured who knows, it may have changed. It was 9:15 when I called to order Mongolian chicken and rice, and they close at 9:30. I asked if this was ok to get it to go now. She said yes, but can you come now? I said yes I'll be there before 9:30 which I was. When I came in she had it ready and was very rude as she took my card and threw it back at me. She asked if I wanted a receipt and I said yes. It was top dollar for the Mongolian chicken at $10 + for the dish. It was just ok, not as good as other places I go. I give 3 stars instead of 2 because they went ahead and agreed to make the food which we were hungry. But they should have said no if it were too late. I would have...
