Take out order from Raymond for my family dinner tonight.Got the lemon chicken, so excited to my kid ，she said taste so good and has mazing sauce. Brown crispy out side and tender in side. Appetizer crispy tofu tried with the west lake minced beef soup was so good for the wether, feed me good and warm me up.

I’m not one to complain about food, grateful to have a meal every time with how pricey life is. With that be said I had the worst fried rice, chow fun, & chicken wings there. Everything was tasteless and bland. I got 4 things there and it was 62 bucks.. I’m all for paying good things but this was NOT worth it. Just tasted like buffet food. Panda Express would have had more flavor.

The people were sooo nice. Food was delicious with large portions. My picky teen son said they were the best noodles he ever had.

I have loved Raymond’s for over 20 years. Consistently quick, delicious and the best staff. The food is fresh, well seasoned, not greasy. They cook shrimp correctly not dried out and cooked to death. Delivery is crazy fast too.

Not bad for your standard Americanized Hong Kong style Cantonese food. Not an insult just accurate. We had mushu, sweet and sour pork and walnut shrimp. Pretty good. Nice folks too.

Dirty place I don’t recommended any body I came to have dinner since I see all this with my friends place I never go back . I recommend for owner specially for the lady behind the cashier please take care for health of people than money, with money there is no respect no time just looking for money, when some spend money give us better services.

I only gave a star so I can post this this place deserves no stars. It was Christmas Eve and I only ordered pot stickers, orange chicken, and rice on the phone. The lady hung up the phone before I could ask the price so I called back than she was very rude told me she was very busy. I asked her what was the price for my order she said $35 than 45 than her final answer was $65 . So I said how much was everything then she proceeded to yell at me for wasting her time so I said to her cancel my order. then she got even madder and I hung up. I will never go there ever again. I suggest that you don’t either.

Small, local authentic Chinese food place. Spicy pork was delicious. Nice meat portion and good size vegetables that had a good cook.

2022-10-12 23:10:03

I never post reviews but cant help it. Tried this place because of how many times I had driven by. Terrible choice. Food is terribly bland. Especially the fried rice, no flavor. Beef is tender, but no seasoning. Seemed boiled? Way overpriced for bland not fully cooked food. And the lady in front was very unfriendly! Will never go here again!

I know this place has mixed reviews, but its worth to go there for the honey walnut shrimp alone!, also their sizziling shrimp and wonton soups are pretty exceptional, there wontons are hand made, and they are super tender and flavorful, yes its a little pricey but they do have daily specials that make certain things cheaper, Id recommend checking it out your craving some chinese food !

This is a great restaurant and the staff are wonderful. Delivery is always hot and consistently fresh. Also- the calendars on new years are too notch! When we have visitors from out of town, they always ask for us to order delivery from here because its that good. Cant recommend this place enough!

Great vegetarian options with very fresh vegetables, overall excellent food and good service! Home style cooking with homemade flavor!

Review №19

2022-05-19 14:21:43

The advertised prices are false. They refused to honor the advertised prices and angrily yelled at me just for mentioning it. She took my cash and yelled very loudly in front of other guests, “you no like - you no come here!” The anger was very intense and made me quite uncomfortable. I took the food because I didn’t have time to start lunch over, and left paying far more than expected. Total BS!

They use cheap ingredients, vegetables barely warm let alone cooked, I like crisply cooked veggies but I think they may have failed to bring this dish up to legal cooking temp being that it had chicken in it, the sh#@tty pre-cooked Cisco type. Receipt was not in English or itemized. Have half a mind to dispute charges since I dont know what they actually charged me for.

Worst Chinese food I’ve ever had. The pan fried noodles we ordered were hard crunchy, plain, and almost like “cup o noodle” noodles thrown into a dirty wok to be fried. The vegetables were cut unusually large. We didn’t receive any napkins or silverware with our order. The fortune cookies were stale too We spent $62 and basically threw everything away. Not really sure why this place currently has 4 stars. This is not immaculate and definitely not the vibe 🙄🙄

The place has good food. However, we got pushed out while we were eating dinner. They let us in before closing and they said we could eat there comfortably. Unfortunately, we didnt finish our dinner. I feel that they should never told us to come on when they new they were going close the doors. Therefore,we will not go back. I believe this is bad service to the customer.

There is only one server for the place. But, she is such a dynamo you think there are ten of her. The food and tea are hot. The duck is crisp and my favorite. Try the whole fried fish. Its supposed to be real crispy and it doesnt disappoint. I have absolutely no complaints. And that says it all

We stopped here one day while at Pacifica because grandpa wanted to sample the Chinese food. He found the food very delicious! I ordered the Schezuan chicken and it was really good. Service was courteous and the order came out pretty quickly.

I went in the other day and the lady made my food to go. I didnt really mind but I started unpacking the food and then she tells me sir if you ordered it to go you need to leave . Id understand if the place was full but it was empty. Worst service ever and the food was barely decent

Raymonds is the BEST, Chinese food in our area ! 😉 The food is delicious and very reasonable ! 🤗 The lunch specials are the BEST ! You get...a main course, appetizer and soup of the day ! ALL for 9$ and under ... depending on your main course, choice ! I like the Szechuan prawns !

Kinda rude on the phone but actually pretty nice in person. Called in to order pick up for lunch. Their phone was pretty much non-stop when I got there.

Review №36

2014-03-18 17:23:02

Food can be a little under seasoned, but thats not always a bad thing as Chinese food can be over powering. The delivery is super fast and this is now our go to restaurant. Also they have promos where if you order x amount of food you get something free. Check them out!!!

2018-02-08 04:11:08

This is one of the best deals going on Pacifica. Heaps of good for a great price. Selection is somewhat limited. Please continue to support them after that big bad Panda Express opens nearby.

2020-06-28 04:20:12

Find the staff very rude. The food tastes like its been cooked in a dirty wok. I suggest try another for Chinese places around the area besides this one. I encourage you to go elsewhere.

Only ate here once and that was to buy a side of brown rice. The brown rice smelled like dirty old wet clothes. I had to throw the whole carton away. Do not eat the brown rice here.

Vegetarians & vegans: get the Singapore Noodles w/tofu & Raymonds Vegetable chefs special. If only getting one of the above get Raymonds. Dont forget the chinese mustard & hot paste. Everything here was fantastic.Normally, Id give just four stars to any place that didnt offer vegan faux meat protein because, by my definition five stars means as good as it gets. This place was so good though they deserve the full five stars.Singapore noodles was perfectly spiced and had gobs of vegetables. They used cabbage instead of green peppers that so many other asian food places seem to use. Raymonds Vegetable tofu had crisp green beans, carrots, shitake mushrooms and eggplant cooked to perfection.One final point: Raymonds is open until 9:30pm weeknights while every other place in town closes at 9. They go the extra mile in every way.
