I’m a Chin’s veteran for many years. Recently had a negative experience with no meat in my chow mein and, and lo mein noodles instead of pan fried. I mentioned it to the owner and he asked me to come back again and I did so, and I’m glad I did. He totally made it right. I will continue to be a chins fan!

The food was fantastic! I've never been here before, however after recently seeing a post on a local Facebook page where tons of people were raving about the place I decided to go here for dinner tonight while we were in Eureka. The food was absolutely incredible easily some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. The waiter who I'm pretty sure owns the restaurant, was very friendly and attentive. I see a few negative reviews I'm not sure what happened with their experience because everyone in our family was very satisfied. All of our meals were simply amazing. I look forward to dining here again next time We decide to go somewhere for dinner in Eureka. P.S. don't let the old 1970s style orange booths and the outdated decor fool you. This place is a perfect example of not judging a book by the cover!
