Best Chinese Restaurants in Old Town

Third time back in four months. Worth the drive to Oceanside. 24 Suns is doing something few restaurants do: take pride and ownership of every morsel of food on your plate, from the 21 month aged house made soy sauce to the foraged rare matsutake mushrooms. I have no experience in fine Chinese fusion cuisine, but I have enjoyed almost every dish served. Flavors and textures are unique, on point, and table conversation pauses with each course to discuss the dish… or simply savor. Service is friendly, attentive and accommodating of dietary needs. They do pairing menus often; we did the tea and dinner pairing, which was a unique and delicious endeavor. Cocktails are also unique and exceptional. I have respect for chefs pushing themselves out there with confidence in a crowded dining scene flooded with established restaurant groups. The dining room is now undergoing renovations after almost a year open but the time spent in the dated space has cemented 24 Suns as one of my favorite restaurants.

Went to this new restaurant and absolutely enjoyed the Wonton Souo and Kung Pao chicken. It was well made and flavors were delicious. I’d go back again to try other apps as I too full to try them! Portions were great and can totally do family style with friends here. They were also able to accommodate my mocktail request which is a bonus for me!

Not very busy tonight. The food was good as usual. The server Alexis acted like she didn't want to be there. I get it it's the holidays but atleast make an attempted to be nice. Didn't check on the table once. Had to ask other servers for water, additional roll ups. I'd eat here again, with the hopes of not getting her as our server again.

Very good service. Food is very tasty, but a little spicier than expected.

Nice ambiance, food very good! Decor is applicable to the restaurant. Staff is friendly.
