Chester's Asia Chinese Restaurant

This is an old school Chinese restaurant of the kind I grew up visiting. It was elaborately decorated with bric-a-brac surrounded by elaborate wall covering and large paintings / murals. Many murals are on the ceiling, too. The wait staff was patient with us as we looked through the many pages of menu. We were greeted with what I call Chinese potato chips accompanied by mixed mustard / ketchup sauces in a single dish. We 2 had the Deluxe Dinner with Three Ingredient Tastes and Three Flavor with Garlic Sauce entrees. The Deluxe Dinner also comes with Imperial Soup, BBQ ribs, fried shrimp, paper wrapped chicken, egg roll, BBQ pork fried rice and tea. We had leftovers to take home. I really enjoyed the mild white sauce of Three Ingredient Tastes vs. the brown sauce of the Three Flavors with Garlic Sauce. The fried rice was tasty, too. The Imperial Soup was a delicious, complicated version of egg drop soup with lots of egg drops and other smaller ingredients in it. The BBQ pork ribs were really messy with sticky sweet sauce. The fried shrimp and the egg rolls were solid but not outstanding.

I visited this new restaurant that serves a mix of Asian cuisines. The lunch menu was $16.05. The décor has a lot going on, and the place was busy when I went. A few things to note: • They charge an extra fee if you use a credit card. • There’s a posted sign saying California law requires you to ask for sauce if you want it. Also the decor is a mix. • At lunch, the only rice options were white rice or BBQ pork fried rice—no vegetable or other varieties available. • When I paid cash, they didn’t automatically return change. I had to ask for it back, and I noticed a couple of other people did the same. The food itself was okay, but not quite what I expected for the price.

DONT EAT HERE!!! Terrible food. This was genuinely one of the worst places I've ever eaten at and I am ashamed to have paid 20$ for my order. The wontons taste terrible and were poorly folded. The broth had freaking pork loin in it and the broth taste mediocre at best. The main course I ordered was sezuchuan chicken and the chicken was disgustingly. It was goo-y, chewy, and bland. The sezuchuan chicken didn't even have sezuchuan it and only had 2 chilies. So basically it's just like British Chinese food that's the easiest way to describe it. In conclusion NEVER EAT HERE

Chester’s Chinese Food in Camarillo is, without exaggeration, the best Chinese food I’ve ever had in my life. The food alone would be enough to make it legendary, every dish is packed with flavor, comforting, and consistently incredible, but the experience goes way beyond the plate. The décor is super authentic, and the moment you walk in, it genuinely feels like stepping into another world. It’s immersive in the best way, warm, nostalgic, and full of character, like the space has its own soul. You don’t feel rushed or distracted, you feel transported. It’s the kind of place where the atmosphere and the food work together to create something memorable. Chester’s isn’t just a restaurant, it’s an experience. Once you eat there, it sets a new standard, and nothing else quite measures up.

First time there and it took me back to my childhood when my dad would take us to have Chinese food family style like that. Food came out fast and nice and hot. Food was so good that I totally forgot about snapping a picture. But it was pretty. Basically need to be there to understand...Live in the moment.

I am really spoiled by good Chinese food. Knowing there are several different styles, I have to say this wasn't my favorite. Never the less I really liked this place. You feel as you stepped into a different times. The service is prompt and friendly. For me the food had a mild taste but my girls were happy. I almost didn't have a chance to try the fish how fast it was gone. Orange chicken is nice and everyone liked the BBQ pork fried rice. Nice place to dine, thank you
