East Meets West China Bistro

East Meets West China Bistro, or “China Bistro” as our customers call it, has been in business since 1999, but its owners Jason and Eileen Teng have been in the restaurant business for 20 years and have used their experience to bring customers an unparalleled dining experience. We serve Mandarin cuisine from the Sichuan province in China with our own special flair to create a menu filled with epicurean delight for distinguishing pallets and newcomers alike. Jason and Eileen have applied their strict standards to the restaurant, making sure that every diner receives a meal that they would enjoy themselves, and it begins when you first step into the restaurant.

The kitchen only uses white meat for chicken on all dishes, the fryer changes its vegetable oil daily, forbids the use of MSG, and makes brown rice available on request. Every facet of the restaurant—the service, the atmosphere, the food, and the facilities—is prepared to maximize the pleasure and enjoyment of the dining experience. Our accolades—including 2000 Best New Restaurant and a nomination for the California Restaurant Association’s Best of the Valley: Best Asian Restaurant 2007—have proven that our methods are working for our philosophy, but we hope you come in and enjoy our food and restaurant and discover what we are about in person.

China Bistro is not a misnomer, as there is a patio for diners to eat and people watch in all seasons. Every table is equipped with the standard regiment of condiments, but the soy sauce and hot oil containers will always be full when you enter

removing any indication that they were previously used. The menu includes all the classic favorites such as Mongolian San Yan and Orange Chicken prepared to maximize the flavor and minimize unhealthy elements associated with fried and oily foods. For our more health-conscious customers, we have created dishes that are lightly sautéed or steamed to emphasize the natural flavors of the vegetables and meats used.
