I love Chino Bandidos!! I have been going since I was really young my dad took me there for my first time and I've been hooked ever since! Anything here is good I've tried just about everything on the menu but I recommend trying the Jade Red Chicken, Chinese BBQ Pork, and Vegetable Stir Fry, and don't forget to leave room for dessert the snickerdoodles are a must-try! (:

Great local favorite and a must try for anyone looking for something a little different. I love the fusion of Mexican, Asian, Jamaican, and everything else they have going on. Highly recommend the jade red chicken quesadilla, jerk chicken burrito combo with the fantastic black beans, and delicious jerk fried rice. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. From gringo chicken to egg foo young, it's all fantastic.

I finally made it to Chino Bandido! This place has been on my to-go for quite sometimes, but I never seem to find myself in the area. Today that all changed and it seemed like a perfect spot to grab a quick bite and quick it was! Upon entering, the space is bright and super clean. There were plenty of patrons inside, but a small line. I took a minute to peruse my options which are a variety of rice bowls or a combo special that allows two proteins and two sides. Service was very friendly and they helped us narrow down our selections!They are Mexican-Asian Fusion and I am here for it! My husband and I shared their most popular, jade chicken, sort of like a orange chicken, but little spicer, rice bowl and one combo with jerk chicken quesadilla, their chinese pork, refried beans and mixed veggie salad. The value for the combo is AWESOME at around $13 and definitely the move. The jerk chicken quesadilla, jade chicken and refried beans were stand out and paired perfectly with their Asian salsa, think sweet sour salsa? Our meals came with complimentary snickerdoodles, though nice flavor, not as soft as I prefer. Overall, it was very tasty and fun twist on two of my favorite cuisines. Service was super quick, value was great and solid flavor. i enjoyed the opportunity to cross this off my Yelp bucket list!

One of our friends saw this place on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives and wanted to check it out. We came on a weekend around lunchtime, and it wasn't too crowded. The menu was pretty big, and the fusion concept was interesting, although I'm not sure how well Jamaican, Mexican, and Chinese flavors go together. I ended up getting the red jade chicken with rice, and each order also came with a cookie. The chicken was crispy and tasted like what you'd expect from orange chicken, but the snickerdoodle was too hard for my liking (the volcano cookie was better). This place reminded me a lot of Panda Express, with slightly higher quality meat. This place had reasonable prices and pretty big portions, and parking was easy. Not sure if I would come back, but this would be a good place for a quick, cheap meal!

Chino Bandido is a local fave restaurant still owned by the same owner who opened it back in 1990. The flavors are Mexican and Asian fusion with a bit of Jamaican. It's also one of many local places that have been featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dive with Guy Fieri. Walk up and order either a bowl, which is 1 protein and 1 base, or the popular combo of 2 proteins and 1 base. For protein you have a variety like teriyaki chicken, machaca, egg foo young, chile relleno, etc. The base options include different beans, rice, or multiple types of fried rice. With the combo you can turn your protein into a burrito or quesadilla. The place gets busy... for good reason! I walked up to order and pay and my food was brought to my table within 3 minutes. I looked through reviews to pick some of the most popular items. My lunch was chicken fried rice with the favorite Jade Red Chicken and Machaca made into a quesadilla with sour cream (as suggested by the helpful worker taking my order). Mmmm....the flavors were wonderful. It was also a large portion of food so I had plenty to take home. Plus, everyone gets a snickerdoodle cookie too. I don't know what took me so long to try this local spot but I'm glad that I finally did!
