About Go China

Go China, located at 136 N Lake Ave, Pasadena, CA 91101, offers a classic Chinese dining experience that has earned it a dedicated following in the Pasadena area. As a go-to spot for Chinese takeout, Go China has consistently impressed with its flavorful dishes and reliable service.

One of the standout dishes at Go China is the honey walnut shrimp, which has become a favorite among regulars. The sweet, crispy shrimp paired with the rich, honey-glazed sauce creates a perfect balance of textures and flavors. Another popular item is the egg fried rice, known for its savory taste and generous portions. Customers also rave about the Kung Pao tofu and orange chicken, which deliver on both flavor and authenticity.

While the portions are generally considered average, Go China’s dishes are known for their high quality, ensuring that each meal is satisfying. However, some customers note that the restaurant’s pricing structure could be improved.

What Our Customers Say

“ Solid Chinese takeout spot. Been my go to for years since moving to Pasadena. I love their honey walnut shrimp. ”

Danielle T.

“ Egg fried rice, Kung pow tofu, and orange chicken was very good. The portions were average and for the price they should have included at least white rice instead of charging 3.75 for it. Every Chinese restaurant I've ever ordered from included white rice with an entree. Knocked off one star for value. ”

Jon C.

“ I ordered once, then I ordered again, and now it's my go to place for Chinese food. Everything on the menu is excellent. One of my all-time favorites has always been fried rice. This place has excellent fried rice, and you can add any meat, including barbecue pork or shrimp. Combination is excellent. Give it a try. I think you'll be happy. ”

“ Without reading reviews, we randomly chose Go China for dinner on our way to San Bernardino from the Bay Area. The staff who helped us was very friendly. We ordered their signature dish Indonesia fried rice, orange beef and chow fun. The fried rice (slightly spicy) and the orange beef (which included pieces of real orange peels) were exceptional. ”

“ Wow. I have lived in the area for almost 10 years. I usually ordered Chinese food from a well-known restaurant on Fair Oaks in South Pasadena. I have seen Go China numerous times as I am nearby. Finally. I thought, what the heck? My reaction? Pretty darn amazing! I am from Philly and NYC, where there is an abundance of terrific Chinese restaurants. Go China is the best. To date, I've been there 3 times, and each exceeded my expectations. I guess it doesn't matter what you get as each person has their own favs. Whatever that is, order it from Go China. There are discount coupons, discounts for using the app, and a customer loyalty program that provides discounts as well. I have to add that the customer service is really good too. Go ahead and do-ot- to- it! You won't be disappointed! ”
