Its definitely a well loved restaurant by many. I went to China Pavilion during lunch time and found a lot of people ordering and eating. This place is a gold mine. I ordered the lunch special eggplant in garlic sauce with vegetable fried rice($ 6.75). Overall I found the food pretty decent in terms of taste. The portions are pretty big. You can share an order with someone else still be full from it. Waiting time for food wasn’t bad considering how crowded it was. I only waited 10 minutes. I will definitely come back to see how their other dishes are.

Some of the best Chinese food I’ve tasted in the Bronx. Definitely for a restaurant in its price range. Everyone in the neighborhood knows to visit and order from China Pavillion, and for good reason: it’s cooks and owners maintain an obviously competitive and consistent standard that results in nearly all of their dishes being well seasoned and remarkably well cooked. Some of their dishes could use more spice and the breaking on some fried dishes is a bit heavy handed. But expect nothing but great servings of your favorite plates.

Very friendly people, the chicken is great love the wings and half of chicken. not really a fan of the shrimp and broc. the ribs can be good if they don’t burn them. the rice is almost always good. imo the only chinese take out i like more than this one is «chinese fried chicken» on east 174 street/bryant ave. that spot has over 6 items i like so i end up always spending about 20.00 for a buffet style meal in my home. i didn’t give china pavilion 5 stars because the delivery guy has a nasty attitude, and doesn’t say thank you for the tip.

I’ve been eating at China Pavilion about once a week for the past few months and I have no real complaints. Having had some horrific experiences with Chinese take-out restaurants in the past, China Pavilion’s food and service were somewhat of a breath of fresh air for me. The food is always fresh and hot and the lady who takes the orders is very pleasant — always attentive and always smiling. I appreciate the fact that they offer brown rice and they’re pretty good about making accommodations or changes to their standard menu items. As far as Chinese take-out spots go, China Pavilion’s one of the better establishments.

We consistently order from here and as far as Chinese food goes, it’s pretty decent. They’ve never gotten our order wrong and they come pretty quickly.

This Chinese take-out place is about 10 minutes away from Einstein College of Medicine and across the street from Jacobi Medical Center, so you see a lot of people in scrubs/lab coats on their lunch break. I’ve gotten take-out from here various times and I can say the food didn’t disappoint. It was nothing special, just some good old greasy Chinese food. This is just typical Chinese fare and the prices are pretty good. The food comes out really fast. I only give it 3 stars though because they once forgot the egg roll with my order(I only realized after taking my order home) and one of the ladies who works the counter is sort of mean(the older one, the younger one is super nice!). If you’re ever craving Chinese takeout, you should definitely check this place out.
