China Stix Restaurant: A Seafood Haven Awaits

Have been going to China Stix for years and they have always been consistent for quality. Portion sizes are reasonable and they have many dishes to try from. I have fond memories of their minced fried fish in lettuce cups, walnut prawns, tofu, and other dishes. Occasionally they host parties and weddings at the restaurant. Conveniently located in middle of Santa Clara and although they are located in a strip mall, parking does get a little hectic and spots are small.

The place looks a bit too authentic, but the food was great. We especially loved the minced chicken on lettuce cups, they came as 4 cups, and were refreshing. I would say a reasonable couple could easily just order the combination plate and be full. We ordered way too much. There was also complimentary tea which was fun.

Unlike ordinary Chinese restaurants in the United States, I was so satisfied because the scent of the dish was strong or not too salty. Especially, appitaizer and the soft tofu dish was really delicious, but orange chicken tasted a little unexpected. We were a little worried about ordering too many dishes, but we finished our plates. When we went, we were relatively free and they looked pretty kind. I have a revisit intention, and I recommend you to visit.

Came here before the lunch rush on a Saturday and had a great time with family. Service was quick and atmosphere was lively and fun! They have your staple Chinese food and dim sum in the morning/afternoon during weekends! Plenty of seating too. Large parking lot, but it’s shared with several other large businesses so can be crowded on weekends.

Was here for a banquet. Good and service was excellent. They were busy but the servers were courteous and apologized when they couldn't get to our request right away. The only down side is the noise level. The tables were crammed close to each other. It felt really crowded and we were my able to have a relaxed, leisurely meal. The PA system seems to be for the whole restaurant space, so when it's used by different groups, everyone in the restaurant could hear it. A bit annoying

Definitely 5 star ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ overall. Best weekend dim sum place to go to. We ordered mixed vegetable with tofu, mushroom with vegetable. And of course, variety of dim sum dishes. Staffs are super friendly, environment is clean as expected. Most importantly, food are delicious. Definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone

I've been coming to this restaurant since the late 90's, and there has never been a time that I can remember, when I've had a bad meal here. The siblings Frank and Lilly, who started the restaurant with a vision of bringing authentic Chinese cusine to Santa Clara, have withheld it's commitment, prestige, and status in the community. The service is always consistent and the wait staff is like family, especially Hugo, he has seen me and my brother grow up since teenagers. I'm so proud of this establishment, keeping a float, as all the smaller mom and pop shops around them in the Plaza have all gone away. If you are from Santa Clara, and don't know about China Stix, you live under a rock.

Great authentic food, good quality and great quantity! Absolute value for money.
