    Food was decent but not worth the price point. Staff smoking outside which is hard to miss as you walk in. Front of house has some challenges. Live music and overhead music played at the same time causing an battle of the background music that was grating. Too many people working the same tables caused repetition and disruption to the dining experience. Martini was watered down and the single olive was old and tastes off. The Lotus salad special was excellent.

    Had a wonderful meal with ear friends at China Gourmet. We had our usual steamed walleye which they filet table side. We paired it with the outstanding green beans. We will continue to treat ourselves to this gourmet experience on many more occasions.

    A well-kept secret. I don't want too many people to know about it. It's a gem.

    I originally went to China Gourmet in the early 1980s and have visited hundreds of times over the years. During this time I’ve never looked at a menu and have always been treated with wonderful food! To my surprise Matt has continued with the tradition Bing Moy started many years ago. The food was a delight and the service was outstanding. I strongly suggest you visit and just ask “what’s good tonight?”. You won’t be disappointed.

    My wife and I have been enjoying China Gourmet for 39 years. They now I have a new chef and have introduced new dishes which are even better than the classics. They continue to be my favorite Chinese restaurant in the region and I think that they are well deserving of the annual rating of being the best in the area by Cincinnati Magazine, which they seem to earn every year. Just a wonderful experience and terrific food.

    This was our third try with this restaurant, it apparently gets worse every time! As we approached the entry from the parking, we are greeted at the door by the “smoker’s lounge” (a dirty little corner hole that had make-shift seating) and 3 disgusting people puffing away. I’m not sure if these were even patrons of the restaurant, and I certainly hope these were not employees, completely gross at any rate. Going in, the place is still too dark and creepy (so no remodel, as I was hoping for) and there was no host around. Finally the bartender seats us next to some poor dad with 4 out of control little kids in an area that acted like an echo chamber. Water was poured and the bartender disappears. We sit there for literally 10 minutes, not even seeing anyone who might work there. Finally, we decide to leave, and as we pass the bar on our way out, the same bartender says, “you all have a great evening”, sounding as if he never remembered seating us 10 minute earlier. What the..? Please don’t go here. Maybe it will go away.
