this has become my new go to Chinese place. Parking: Plenty of street parking around the area. Delivery: I live only a few blocks away so for me its always very quick. Accuracy: You might wonder "Accuracy? whats that have to do with a restaurant?" Well if youve ordered take out you know sometimes they dont always get your order correct. This place always gets it right. Food: This is one of the few places in the area that offers "fake" meat or SVT and according to my wife its really good. Their real meat/fish is also very good. I tend to stick to the basics of fried rice, egg drop soup and chicken with garlic sauce which are all well done. Price: The price isnt too high and the amount you get is good. We like their dinner combos which provide an eggroll and fried rice.

Order delivery from here every now and then (read: when I get a hankering for good Chinese). I really like their General Tsos chicken (some of the best Ive had in the area), and I normally dont get fried rice with my dishes, but China House has delicious fried rice in my opinion. I was going to give them four stars, because they have mediocre lo mein (its decent, but I personally would order from somewhere else if I wanted lo mein), but I decided against it as they are great in every other aspect I can think of. Overall, most of the food Ive tried has been really good, and they have always delivered my food in their specified timeframe. I highly recommend you try this place out; their prices are also lower than other places in the Arlington area, so thats a plus as well.

Ordered from this place a second time by mistake, having forgotten the first time until I got my food. Both times, very disappointing, and I am not a picky eater. Both times I got vegetarian - tonight sesame tofu - cut into large chunks that barely seemed cooked, surrounded by thick soggy breading that tasted like flour dough. Spouse had sweet and sour chicken that was edible but very bland. Fortune cookies were so stale that they were inedible. Other local places at the same price-point are are of much better quality and flavor.

China House is a pretty decent Chinese restaurant. Ive only ordered takeout from them, but its generally consistent. Unfortunately, their vegetable lo mein and vegetable fried rice (my two favorite dishes) arent great, but they have delicious Szechuan style string beans, and their faux-chicken isnt half bad either. Since my favorite Chinese restaurant in Arlington closed, this is a good alternative.

Good prices and able to order online. Quickly made in under 20 min after online order. Crispy beef had nice tender chunks of beef. Pad Tai had nice spice but didnt have the usual garnishes. They gave us extra donuts too and liked the free crab ragoon (after spending $25 online). Good portion size too, this may be my new go-to cheap Chinese takeout.

If I could give them a zero, I would. This is my third times order the food from China house. They delivery times take a longer than other places. So this time I ordered for pick up. When I got home, I started to eat my food. There was a roach in my beef broccoli, very disgusted. I wont order from them anymore!

I am not a fan of Chinese food. It normally seems as though its been steaming in a bucket for days. This place just made me reconsider my outlook on what cuisine can be. I would go gladly let my children chew on lead filled toys if everything I ate was as good as the garlic chicken I had the honor to savor.

Just what you would expect from your neighborhood Chinese takeout -- and with a couple tables if you want to eat-in. Especially like the beef with broccoli, which by the way come with a variety of other veggies mixed.

Took almost an hour to get here and the food was so gross. The chicken I could barely bite through because it was so hard. All the chicken was stuck together soaked in the sauce. Not ordering there again.

This is not the place for sit down dining. You can if you want, but theres just not much room. But for take-out food, this place is perfect. Good food, very quick service, and decent price.

Everytime i go to this china house the food is alwayse cooked well and it alwayse tastes great. The female cashier is not the friendliest but she hooks it up with the spicy souce when i ask.

Gross. Ordered delivery and the platters we ordered were mundane to downright gross. Meat was hard, cold and stringy. Will NEVER order from them again. Waste of money and time.

Loved the food. Fried rice was perfect and orange chicken was plentiful and delightful. Even after a reheat, both were great!

The orange chicken was okay, the meat was kind of burnt tasting but the fried rice was the best!
