September 17, 2022: Had to revise the rating. My aunt had asked if they had included the sweet-and-sour sauce with a takeout order and they said they did. When we took it back home, there was no sweet and sour sauce. We would have not ordered two plates of fried shrimp balls if we knew the sauces wouldn’t be included.
Earlier in September 2022: Ordered takeout and when the bag was handed over to me, I asked the employee if the entire order was in the bag (the bag felt skimpy). I found out the bag was missing an order of fried shrimp balls, but the employee included the charge in the total tab. The employee went to the kitchen, came back and stated the restaurant had made 6 orders of shrimp balls, 1 was supposed to be mine, but they gave away all 6 orders to the people seated at the tables. Took a long time to get a credit card refund.
Beef roll noodles, shrimp roll noodles (ha cheng), cilantro dumplings, sui mai, fried shrimp balls with the sweet and sour sauce, and egg tarts are excellent. There is a dinner special where you can order 3 entrees from a list and get a full-sized soup for $39.99.
Past Review from July 2022:
Oriental Chef in Stockton, California is next door to the Hammer Ranch Post Office. Excellent dim sum with roll carts. Good service. The flavoring on the dim sum is more delicate than that of other places I have visited. High ceilings and ample space. Visited here on July 16, 2022.
Ordered takeout for pickup on July 30, 2022. Excellent quality.

Best places to eat at are hole in the walls… this little gem has really good authentic Chinese food especially the Dim Sum! I love the salt and pepper shrimp! It’s the perfect amount of batter and spices and flavors! Can’t wait to try some of their other signature dishes!

Food is amazingly fresh…and the portions a huge enough the feed more the one person. If you want fresh Chinese food this is the place. Just know that you need to come hungry. 10/10.

The dimsum place that we used to go has been closed for renovations then we came to this place for the first time and everything was amazing!!
Food service and atmosphere . Prices are reasonable.I won’t come back to that place again and will only come back to Oriental Chef..I can say this place is the best dimsum spot in Stockton.

This is a wonderful authentic Chinese restaurant. The service was excellent and the food came quickly. Everything we had was delicious. We started with sizzling rice soup, followed by steamed chicken, roast duck, Peking spareribs, fried rice, gailan (Chinese broccoli) honey walnut shrimp, beef chow fun, and Hong Kong style chow mein. This was our first time here, and we will definitely come back.

I’ve been here multiple times. Sometimes they forget things and one time
I even got raw sui mai. Gross. Didn’t even do much except take it away. Thank God I didn’t eat it. But it’s funny that it happened on my birthday. And we ended up paying more than $120 for our meal.

Ordered quite a bit of dim sum to bring back home for lunch as there aren’t any in my area. They all had good flavor and good amount of filling, but the tapioca skins on some of them are a bit too thick for my preference. The chicken feet were nice and tender, the beef tripe was very good also. I got there a bit past 1PM and a few items were sold out so next time I will go earlier.

Order chow mein and ask for thin noodles and they charge me extra $3.00 never have I ever been charged for replacing fat noodles for thin noodles. Never going back there again even if that’s the only restaurant in the world

Food was good. Limited menu. No combo playes. Staff barely speaks English. Nothing has changed in 15 years.

Went here today with my family for my little brother’s promotion. The food was alright but the service was terrible!!! My grandma was being sweet and the lady had an attitude. I get it the business working in customer service does suck, so we gave her leeway to be. But the whole service sucked from her and we were there for hours. I get it you were busy but you don’t completely avoid your customers nor be little them. We no longer want to partake in your business.
