Emerald China Restaurant

Great authentic Chinese food! Homemade dumplings are sooooo delicious 😋Will try Baozi next time. Definitely recommend it

As a Vietnamese grown up in HCMC, I've been always craving for Saigon's specialties noodle soups like Bún Mắm, Bánh Canh, Bún Riêu. Emerald China did some part bring out the flavor of those dishes but I was a little bit disappointed at the amount of the toppings. I don't mind paying extra to have more protein in my bowls. Would recommended the Bún Mắm and Bánh Canh.

So, we normally love eating from this place. My sister usually orders it to-go, but today I decided to dine-in with my nieces. The food was delicious, however, upon putting what was left in to-go containers, there was one roach bug on my niece's plate and two on mine. We both had the same dish, so maybe it was just the chicken from the lemon fried chicken dish, but we were the only ones in the restaurant at the time. Just a heads up-- check through the food on the plate when you get it. This is the FIRST time anything like this has ever happened. We have had their food to go many, many times and never had any issue. We love the food! Just this one time it came with bugs.

I was craving Chinese food and my girlfriend recommended this place, saying she love it when she was in high school, they make the best beef chow mein. I have to admit from the outside it looked like just another Chinese restaurant, you know the ones where all dishes taste the same full of MSG. Boy I was wrong. The food was delicious, had multiple Asian flavors across all dishes. I had the fish special which was grouper with mixed vegetables. The grouper was fresh and cooked perfect and so were the vegetables. Of course girlfriend had beef chow mein, I tried it and loved the smoky flavor along with the fresh onion and noodles. The lunch special comes with your choice of soup and rice along with egg roll. The egg roll was really good, not just a filler, had great flavors. The seatin

It has been more than 20 years since I last ate here since I don't live in the area anymore. Based on my receipt, it looks the restaurant was bought out at some point but kept the same name. I bought a lunch combo, which used to include the meal with rice, egg roll, and soup, but now the soup is not included. The meal was good, but the egg roll was overcooked and flattened somewhat, like it had been cooked on a griddle rather than fried. I thought the lunch combo price was a bit high, only $3 less than a dinner meal without the egg roll, but the amount of food still filled me up. The dining room is brighter and nicer than when I last ate there. However, the bench seat was uncomfortably lumpy. The staff and service was great and the food was served after a short period of time.
