| - Don't let the location fool you, this little restaurant is good enough to be claimed as former Las Vegas Mayor, Oscar Goodman's favorite Chinese Restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada. The curbside appeal may look like a place you wouldn't take a second glance at to even bother to stop by, but Diamond China hits the spot when it comes to quantity and value as well as waiting time for both being seated and served your dishes. Another great plus, is that this restaurant is open late...I believe till 2am. Great for your late night adventures and wanting to ease your hunger. Once entering the premises, the ambiance of the place feels calming, casual and relaxed...more like a Chinese Restaurant. Lunch time may become a little on the loud side but that is expected at most casual restaurants. The plates come small (which may or may not be a good thing) One may take it as a good way to not eat as much and pile much food on...however, one may also want to keep getting more, thinking they may not have eaten enough. Trust me though, you will not leave hungry. Food portions per dish is your average size, but price is low enough that even if you have a group of 6-10 and you wanted to order 2 dishes of each, you would have more than enough and still keep it at a reasonable price. When you get your bill, you will almost think they missed some of your order. I may not be an expert in Wor Wonton Soup...but by far, this is the only restaurant that I have been to where the Wor Wonton Soup was on point and pretty authentic and not your cheap pot sticker style wonton.
The only downside to this, is about 2 times out of my many visits, there have been other waiters who were not the usual waiters we always get. It could be that they were not in the mood, or had a bad day...but the service at those two times were less than mediocre. None the less, still unacceptable if they want to have repeat customers. Other than those 2 times, everyone else has been on point. I would definitely recommend others coming here to give it a try. This place may not be the best, but is one of my favorite Chinese Restaurants in Las Vegas.
