" My experience at China 1968 was pretty decent, but it didn’t blow me away. The egg drop soup was alright, but the main course didn't leave a lasting impression. I could taste a lack of some spices. The service was decent, but I felt a little rushed to order. I might visit again to give it another try since they have good reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience overall! The BBQ pork dish was one of the best I’ve had at a Chinese restaurant. The flavors were authentic and well balanced. My friend had the Kung Pao Chicken and loved it too! The environment was lively and welcoming, and our server was attentive without being intrusive. Will definitely return for a casual lunch again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I always count on China 1968 for my Chinese cravings! I often order the honey walnut shrimp, which is always crispy and drizzled with a perfect amount of sauce. The portions are huge, making it a great deal for the price. The staff are generally friendly, and I enjoy the casual cafe vibe. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been coming to China 1968 for years, and the food is consistently good. I particularly love their house special fried rice! It's packed with flavor and generous in size, making it great for sharing or for leftovers. The staff are always friendly, and the ambiance is quaint. I always recommend this place to family and friends looking for a taste of authentic Chinese cuisine. A must-try! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food at China 1968! The salt & pepper chicken wings were just perfect - crispy and flavorful! The service was friendly, but the ambiance was rather casual, which was fine for a family dinner. The portions were also generous and satisfying, making the meal worth every penny!

" China 1968 feels like a staple in my dining choices now. The garlic vegetables were healthy and delightful, and the portions ensured I left satisfied. The friendliness from the staff is consistent, which adds to its charm. I’d rate my experience highly and would encourage others to come and check it out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I want to love this restaurant because I’ve heard great things, but my last visit was disappointing. The fried rice was dry and the orange chicken was too breaded with not enough chicken. Service was friendly as always, but the quality of the food needs improvement. Hoping my next experience is better, as I really want to enjoy it. " (*Curated Review*)
