Save your money!. Went there for dinner tonight and we were the only people in the entire restaurant. Our bill was exactly $42 for two people. We had 2 non-alcoholic beverages, 2 "egg rolls," 2 cups of Wonton soup, pork fried rice and 2 entrees. I would expect that a Chinese restaurant would have dinner specials or combinations, but this restaurant does not. The egg rolls had no meat and were actually spring rolls--the only filling was cabbage and carrots. The wonton soup was luke warm and did not have bbq pork in it. The entrees were large, but the food was mediocre. I would have expected to pay no more than $15 per person for what we ordered, so I feel ripped off. The atmosphere was also terrible, though clean enough. Large restaurant with no one there and very slow incessant asian music lulling us to sleep. If I can keep just one couple from wasting their money and evening at this place, my time will have been well spent.

Great Food. I've eaten all over and they are very consistently good. The chef has been cooking great food for over 20 years here in Austin. You always get great portions and friendly service.

Great Food. Very good food. I tried both the shrimp fried rice and the beef chow mein. Highly recommend. The delivery was very fast as well. Will eat her regularly.

Best Chinese Food in Austin!. I have been eating here for around 9 years, I've tried other restaurants because they were closer to me- but China Cafe always wins. They are the ONLY restaurant I have been to that makes hot and sour soup just how I like it. Everything I've had here tastes great! They seem to be a family owned restaurant, and mostly every staff member I talked to has been friendly.

Kinda tasty. The food here is consistantly good and the service has rarely been bad so I really do recommend that you try this place if you are in the neighborhood. There best thing I have ever eaten here was a spicy lamb dish that was a little pricey but was so full of peppers and flavor that I think it was worth it. The appetizers are decently priced and the atmosphere of this restaurant makes you feel pretty good, overall this place is great.

Best Chinese NW Austin and delivers. Without doubt one of the best Chinese restaurants in town, even those trendy downtown places and others which may be more often heard of. After over 20 years in Austin, still one of my favorites. Food is always fresh and cooked exactly like you want it. They deliver to certain areas close to the restaurant and delivery time is usually quicker than they say except Fridays. Still worth it. Shak

THE BEST CHINESE FOOD IN AUSTIN. My family and I have been going here since it opened. We are from Austin and have been to just about every chinese restaurant in Austin. If you want good fresh inexpensive food - you can never go wrong here. Their food is always fresh and the service is quality. The reviews here have mentioned no substitutions but my family and I ALWAYS have substitutions and have never been denied. These guys have the best in town!!!

Popular Chinese eatery serves solid fare to Lakeway residents.. In Short
If the popcorn didn't fill you up at Lake Creek Cinema then the nearby China Cafe might be the place to head. The family-owned and operated restaurant serves spicy and healthy Chinese food in a comfortable dining room with lots of plants. The most popular dishes are spicy shrimp and white meat chicken with mixed vegetables. Service is very friendly, plus the restaurant offers takeout and delivery within a three-mile radius.
