China Cuisine — Restaurant in Shafter

We've been wanting to try china cuisine for a long time after reading all the reviews online. I picked up my grandson from school and we went for an early dinner. We got there too early for the buffet. I was craving old style chow mein with crunchy noodles which I knew was on their menu. My grandson ordered the orange chicken which comes with rice. The sauce and crispiness was wonderful. He loved the first couple of bites. But afterwards said he was having a little bit of an aftertaste, he said it wasn't bad. But he liked it, and it was a nice large serving, not greasy, nice and crispy and the sauce was very good. They gave him a very small bowl of steamed rice to go with his orange chicken. I ordered one of the individual dinners that had chow mein, fried rice and sweet and sour pork. The chow mein was delicious. Just what I was craving. The fried rice was mushy. The sweet and sour pork had a very tasty sauce on it and was nice and crispy, but the meat was very tough and dry. I didn't eat the sweet and sour pork or the fried rice. I had enough chow mein left over to take home for later. They don't serve soup before the dinner or include an egg roll, like many other chinese restaurants do. They also add a 3.50% charge if you use a card to pay. I would like to go back and try the ribeye steak which everybody raves about but the next time, for chinese food,...

If you're in Kern County and looking for an incredible Ribeye Steak. China Cuisine in Shafter, California, is where it's at! I just happened to learn about this location through Bakersfields Local Restaurants' Facebook page. Someone asked, "Best local place to take someone for a birthday steak?" and this restaurant had several mentions right alongside Bakersfields usual suspects (Horse in The Alley, Hungry Hunter. KC Steakhouse); enough to stir my curiosity and justify the 30-minute drive. My steak was well over 16ozs. and was paired with garlic toast, mashed potatoes and gravy (which were pretty plain, honestly), and came with a visit to the salad bar. You do have other side options of: rice (steamed or fried) or baked potato. The steak alone is absolutely worth it, but pair the steaks au jus with the garlic toast, and you have a duo that takes all the dining senses to a new level. Hats off to the chef. I'll definitely be...

First timer at China Cuisine Restaurant, as we were in the mood for Chinese and it appeared in the top five Restaurants in the city of Shafter, California. We were seated in a quaint and quiet booth and served by Cindy who was friendly and welcoming. I questioned her about their Cuisine and she made suggestions that were right on time. We ate Chicken Chow Mein, Chop Suey, Pork Ribs, Fried Shrimp, Sweet n Sour Chicken, Crispy Noodles and Pork fried rice. Drank Raspberry Tea and of course took some Home. Awesome Restaurant, I even saw the Chef talking to Customers at their tables. Excellent, Authentic Chinese Food. I'll be back for sure. It was...
