  Ordered Kung Pao Chicken and 1 hour later i am still looking for the chicken.
  the chicken portion was very small pieces and hard to find.
  Big pieces of filler such as celery and green peppers.
  Kung Pao Chicken should be spicy, but this was not.
  I would not order from them again.

  Great food for a decent price.  I'm probably there once every two weeks.  A nice mix of sushi and traditional chinese food.  Very clean and the service is great - owner is very friendly!  I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

  Good chinese place with a broad menu that contains many healthier options with grilled instead of fried meat.
  
  Slightly on the pricier side (most dishes $10-$12), but the portions were reasonably large and of overall high quality.

  For Chinese food in this area, China House is pretty decent. Prepared quickly, and the ingredients seem to be of a relatively high quality. The restaurant is clean, and the kitchen itself appears to be quite clean and sanitary. So this place is definitely a notch above a lot of other Chinese take out places. Some of the dishes tend to be a bit on the salty side, but overall are tasty. The service is helpful and prompt, if not terribly friendly.

  Had the general tso's chicken. Did not enjoy the general tso's chicken. I've heard such good things about the place I'm going to give it a second try. Will update accordingly.

  Neal is very happy.  He is so happy he has allowed himself the indulgence of referring to himself in the third person.  So, why is Neal happy?  I have made a discovery today that will make my life just a little bit better.  My hometown of oakmont has been desperately in need of an asian restaurant that serves sashimi/sushi.  And, not just the tired old takeout places around here specializing in fat and grease laden egg rolls/general tso's.  Verona's got Nicky's thai (which is really good) and now Oakmont has this place.  I made my first visit to china house today for takeout.  I was actually on my way to tomanettis to get a small pie, but then I noticed this little gem.  It's located in an office building right below the tracks next to Brueggers.  Now, let me preface this by saying it isn't that the food is so amazing, although it's good.  It's that I can now get sashimi/sushi without having to drive 20 minutes,,, and they deliver!  This is the convenience that I need that I'm sure will put me over the top with mercury poisining with access so easily to raw fish.  Okay, the spot itself is what you'd expect a few 4 tops a few booths and a mini sushi bar.  It's byob and they also deliver and do take out.  It looks clean and the staff is all asian which is a good sign.  The surprising thing about this place is the menu is pretty diverse.  They have the usual stuff (general tso's, chix w/ broccoli, etc.)  However, they offer a few unexpected dishes such as baked new zealand green mussels, lamb, marinated japanese squid salad, a really big selection of sushi rolls with ingredients like soft shell crab, lobster, and salmon roe.  They also have a special diet menu.  Not the usual diet menu's which are just the normal dishes, steamed without any sauce or flavor.  They have this "revolution diet" menu that has actual dishes with flavor and list the calories next to them.  Today I ordered the Prawns with snow peas, broccoli, bean sprouts spicy szechuan style (475 calories according to the menu).  It was really tasty and if I didn't order it myself nothing about the dish said "diet".  There were about a dozen big shrimp in a flavorful sauce with really fresh crisp veggies.  It was 11.95 which seems reasonable when you consider it was packed with seafood.  I also ordered the "white tuna" and "salmon" sashimi.  I was a bit nervous because Sunday is not a good day at any restaurant to order sashimi because you know it's at least a couple days old, but this was pretty good.  It was sliced properly and was fresh.  For some reason I have a hard time finding "white tuna" at a lot of the sushi places around here and it's my favorite, so I was glad to see they have it here.  They also offer sashimi combo's where you can just get salmon or tuna if you want and not have to default to whatever mixture of fish they give you.  Overall, this is a great new addition and I'm really happy I can now have sashimi whenever I want without having to make a special trip.  Okay, Neal is going to finish his dinner now.
