My family and I ate here today. We sat in the car and watched your review while waiting for our table. Best place ever! Food and service was excellent!! Thanks for steering us to such a great place!
Thank you, that's so great to hear! It makes our day when people can use our channel to have a great meal, 😁😁😋
Since you clearly like Chinese food you should check out our latest video where we discuss our top Chinese places in Vegas! czcams.com/video/hdXy2RFPknU/video.html
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great close up and slow shots of such tasty looking food .
Thanks for watching and commenting! Yes, I really love those slow close up shots, 😁
I'm so glad I found your channel! As a former cook and chef myself, it is refreshing to find someone who knows food & what they're talking about. Vegas is my new obsession and when we went, back in June, we had some amazing food in Chinatown. I now have a growing list of places to try, and I look forward to learning about more places from your channel 😃
There are over 5000 restaurants here and it seems every day we learn of a new one. Vegas is an overlooked food hub and the Chinatown is superlative!
Agreed!!! Thanks for guiding people like me to all of the goodness 😊
Your review sold me on China Mama! THanks for the excellent review and explanation of the dishes, restaurant and a little history sprinkled in
That's so great to hear! Glad we could help with the sale, lol. It's a great place; you're going to love it. Thanks again!
Beautiful. Can’t wait to go there. The mamas chow mein looks incredible.
It's so good! Yes, the chow mein was the best! The do it right at China Mama, 😋😋
looks fabulous ty so much for sharing
Thank YOU for watching! Yes, very good food at China Mama, 😋😋
I guessed that China Mama was "everyone's favorite Chinese restaurant" and I was right, because it's certainly mine.
Good Guess! I've never been there when there hasn't been a long line to get in! So popular...and for good reason, 😋
Wow! All of this looks delicious. I really want to try that crispy beef dish.
Yes, the crispy dish was fantastic. We get it every time we go there! Thank you for watching and commenting!! 😁😁
Great review. I can’t wait to try it when I’m in Vegas next
Thanks for watching and commenting. You won't be disappointed. Make sure you get there early as the line gets very long right away!!
Hands down one of my all time favorites in Vegas. We're sure to get there right as they open. There have been times when we got there as they opened And before our food could get to the table there was a line to get in. Got to try the Lobster Oh my God.
Yes, absolutely! Went there a few weeks back 30 minutes before their evening opening and there was a long line already. Fortunately we were one of the last to get a table in the first wave, and as usual, it was a delicious meal, 😋😋
@@LetsEatVegas you have me literally wanting to drive to. Vegas tomorrow for lunch. 4 Hours is doable but I would be in no condition to drive. 😂😂😂 The Lobster is out of this world.
😁😁You should wait until it cools down here, lol
Looks amazing 🤩!
It is! One of our favorite places, 😋😋😁😁
I've never heard anyone call it "pasta" before. Interesting! Great video and can't wait to try it when I'm in town.
It's so good! You'll love this place, 😋😋
Great review your comments are honest
Thank you very much. We didn't want to be just cheerleaders but a place you could find out the real deal. Glad you agree, 😁😁.
Great video, we need to try this place
Thanks! Yes, you should! 😁😋
We go there every time we visit Vegas.
It's great to have a 'go to' spot when you're travelling! Thanks for watching.
I haven't been there in a while, but "Orchids garden" has pretty good dim sum.
Absolutely! We'll be coming out with a video on them very soon, 😋😁
Looks absolutely delicious...have to try this next time I'm in Vegas, thanks for sharing. You ate all that in one sitting?
You're going to love it. And, yes! What can I say...we're trained professionals, lol.
I wish more restaurants would have tofu skins with pickled Chinese greens!
Thanks for watching. Yes, that would be fantastic!
This place looks terrific! As a native New Yorker whose favorite food is Chinese, I have seen too many good sit-down Chinese restaurants close. So much of the options in New York are overpriced takeout that is hit and miss. I miss restaurants like this. I visit Vegas regularly and need to try this. Thanks for the great video.
Yes, Covid hit the restaurant business here hard. Many local mom 'n pop places closed for good, 😢. It's just starting to recover now. And...THANKS for watching, 😁
@@LetsEatVegas Actually the restaurants I am referring to were closing years before Covid. The traditional NYC Chinese restaurant is slowly disappearing.
Missed Dry Pepper Chicken and Mapo Tofu--mandatory dishes there.
Thanks for watching and the excellent comments! We've had the Dry Pepper Chicken and it was very good but it didn't make it into the video.
Wow great review glad I found your Channel as we are always looking for new local places to eat in Vegas while on vacation if you eat on the Strip every night it'll break the bank ! Have you ever tried Cornish Pasty company it's downtown we went this year very unique place everything is homemade and delicious check it out❤❤
Thank you! I'm so glad you like the Channel, 😁.
China Mama is fantastic. We've reviewed a few other lesser known places and have several more coming up soon.
Hmmm, Cornish Pasty...no, but I just looked them up on Yelp and they look very good. Will have to check them out...thanks for the tip!!
❤
Thanks! China Mama...excellent Chinese food and a wonderful atmosphere, 😁
Food does look quite good. But your comment that the fried rice could use some chicken broth is really off base. Typically cantonese fried rice, is flavoured with a little mild light soya sauce, or in some cases, just simply salt. Some restaurants do make it a little bland, while others flavour it deeply.
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. I agree with your view. To clarify, I didn't mean to imply that chicken broth was an authentic alternative for a fried rice dish, but that this is what my palate told me would have made their bland fried rice get where I felt it needed to go. Salt or soy would have been equally as effective. Anyway, thanks again and keep watching and offering your insights. We greatly appreciate it, 😁😁
Been there done that.
Glad you liked it!
wow great video, I used to go the Jones China Mama. But you grab the most boring dishes. Don't be afraid to take what's not norm in the west and explore they're menu more.
Thank you for watching and commenting! You should definitely check out the Shanghai Plaza location. I think the interior is nicer and the food is every bit as good. We'll be returning there soon and trying some of the less 'West friendly' dishes, 😁😋. We love to experiment with food!
Free tea? The dim sum places charges. I always want to try this place but it was too far off the Strip. Having is new location helps.
Good point! Yes, they are much closer to the strip now...Enjoy!!
@@LetsEatVegas how's the traffic on Spring Mountain Road? Like from Fashion Mall to Chinatown?
I never understood using chopsticks. 😂
I guess you can't argue with a few billion people, 😁
Try it…you like it !
Not sure why, but it's listed as closed? I copied & pasted this message: China Mama Restaurant is temporarily closed. If that's wrong, you can suggest an edit.
Their original location closed last year due to a kitchen fire. It is scheduled to reopen soon. Their second location, China Mama 2 (the one we review), is open.
Try Ping Pang Pong at Gold Coast
We will! Thank you for watching and commenting, 😁
Ping Pang Pong got its reputation because it is open late. The food itself is not that great.
What is the average price?
At the time it was about $15 a plate. They are decent size portions. Thanks for watching!
Nope! You have to come to Hawaii, and go to fook lam in China town & jade dynasty at ala Moana shopping center 🏬
Wow, sounds great, but it will have to wait until we create the "Let's Eat Hawaii" channel, 😁😁. Thanks for watching and commenting!!
Uh who is rating this place? Friends and family?
Thanks for watching. We are independent and have no interests in any restaurants we review. We are former restaurant owners and a chef and give our honest opinions.
i appreciate you not showing the food going in your mouth and chewing. I think that is gross when others do it in their videos.
So funny. We had a lot of debate about that as a number of friends thought we should show that. But, in the end, we wanted to remain anonymous (so places wouldn't treat us differently than the general public) and we felt there are enough videos where you get to see the gory details, lol. Thanks for watching!
I agree , I don't like TV commercials showing people (up close especially) stuffing their face. Also people who talk with food in their mouth , so many people with bad manners.
I watch food videos all the time and don't worry if somebody is showing us them eating and enjoying their food after all we all do it... Nothing gross about it, it's just natural unless they're spitting it out or smacking or something... it's pretty much what we all do and I don't mind watching it at all !! Somebody savoring a good bite is actually enjoyment to me, I guess it's all how you look at it😅
@@sherrielson517 Same here most of stuffing done lets say--- tastefully
