The food was so good, and the portions were big but perfect for leftovers. The hospitality was great, the staff treated us amazing. Over all would definitely come back

Surprisingly good food! I wasn't expecting a lot based on the location, but this place is a hidden gem! Large portions and very friendly service. The restaurant is SUPER CLEAN, but the bathroom was a bit dirty AND being used for extra storage. If they clean up their bathrooms the 4-star review goes to 5-stars because of the good food and friendly service

I recently moved in the area and was looking for Chinese place. I ordered the bbq pork fried rice and orange chicken. The dinner option came with egg roll and soup. It was all amazing. The portions were huge, the food fresh. I will definitely be coming back, this was my first visit.

China 1968 has great food and great service! I came here with my girlfriend and her sister for an early lunch, so luckily we got there before their lunch rush. We got about 5 different items to share, and each one was delicious. I don't make it out to this area often, but next time I do, I will definitely be stopping by again!

Thought I’d take a chance on this place. Terrible portion and high price. They squeezed in an order before closing. A large general tsos had no flavor and was all sauce and vegetables, barely any meat. Worst $15 I’ve spent in awhile; we are still hungry and annoyed about it.

China 1968 has provided me with consistently great Chinese food. And never greasy, which is a great big PLUS I my book. The friend chicken wings are HUGE along with being flavorful and juicy. The House Lo Mein is always a winner.
Parking can get tight on the weekends but worth the time it takes to come here.

The food is always well made and delicious! The only thing is I wish they would update their hours, as when I attempted to order via delivery on the weekends it states they are closed! (At 7:30?!)

"China 1968" is a small family-owned Chinese strip mall specializing in take-out. I was told that the reason for "1968" is that those are lucky Chinese numbers.
My review is about the fried chicken. There are two fried chicken varieties here: The Salt & Pepper Boneless Fried Chicken Breast, and the Salt & Pepper Fried Chicken Wings. They're made to order, so they took a little bit to come out.
Once served, the fried chicken pieces look similar to other Asian offerings with their thin, hard batter made of flour, and starch of potato or corn or both. They smell like heaven and are fried to a rich golden hue. I remember picking up my first wing and its crunchy, crackly fried coating shattering as my teeth penetrated its crust, and a mini-explosion of liquid smearing warm chicken juices mixed with frying oil on my lips and tongue. I could taste chicken, salt, pepper, garlic, ginger, and hot pepper flakes. Great moisture, great crunchiness, great soft chicken meat, great spice blend.
This unassuming strip-mall hole-in-the-wall serves some of San Diego's best fried chicken, and you should come here if you want what may be among the best Asian-style Salt & Pepper Fried Chicken you'll have anywhere.
