Best places: Chinese restaurants in Santa Maria, United States

Small Chinese restaurant featuring a dependable basic menu & traditional decor.

👍👍 I've discovered Santa Maria's freshest, best tasting, Chinese food buffet! Tucked in a small shopping mall you might miss it, but it's well worth finding! First of all, the food just looks plain good. Colorful, fresh looking and steaming hot in smaller bowls that are refilled every few minutes....

Unassuming strip-mall locale furnishing typical Chinese-American grub for dine-in or carry out.

👍👍 Fresh veggies and chicken so good!

Casual restaurant with a warm atmosphere serving familiar Chinese dishes, with beer, wine & sake.

👍👍 Lovely food with great service, and very reasonable priced. The dine in experience was very enjoyable.

Lanterns & Asian art adorn this straightforward, booth-lined spot for typical entrees like lo mein.

Egg foo yong & chop suey join other Chinese standards in a strip-mall restaurant that delivers.

Fast-food chain for Chinese standards, including some health-conscious options.

😠 Fried rice isn't fried. At least my order wasn't. Meats were undercooked quickly on the wok then combined with cooked rice outside of the wok. I could have done a better job at home with Uncle Ben's rice. This was the first and last time I will go to this place.

🫤 EDIT 4/27/2023: This place is terrible now. The Mongolian grill is gone. The food is now very noticeably lukewarm to cold even at 5 PM. Way too much random food choices, a lot of it Mexican. Even if it's a very Hispanic area of Santa Maria, dunno why they wanna go to an Asian buffet for Mexican...
