50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Arleta

“Family loves it . We always have a great time .“

“I’m a regular customer at this restaurant and eat there at least three times a week. I just want to clarify one thing: their dishes are absolutely cooked fresh every day, and there is no way they would keep leftover food overnight.

Every time I go there, the food is always fresh, and honestly, every dish looks so appetizing. Their restaurant is extremely busy, and there is usually a line every day. Just think about it—when a restaurant is that busy, when would they even have the opportunity to have leftover dishes? It simply doesn’t make sense.

So, I believe the food you had must have been purchased and then kept for several days. Since the weather has been hot, it’s possible that it wasn’t eaten soon enough and spoiled. This has nothing to do with the ingredients or food preparation at the restaurant.“

“My experience at this particular location was very pleasant. I was greeted when I walked in. Chris took my order and was extremely polite and very welcoming. He looked happy which that made me feel comfortable enough to ask him questions. As I was eating, an employee was walking around asking customers if everything was ok and that was the first time I saw this at any Panda location. It was nice being acknowledge and helped. Chris, along his staff were all very welcoming. Would be coming again!“

“Had a fantastic dinner here last night, and a big part of that was our server, Ash. Ash was warm and genuine, gave great recommendations, and kept our drinks and plates taken care of all night without us ever having to flag anyone down. Food was excellent and the atmosphere was relaxed. Ash is the kind of server who makes you want to come back. Highly recommend asking for Ash's section.“

“The siopao was soft and tasty, the beef noodle soup was comforting and flavorful, and the chicken was crispy and satisfying. Overall, a good meal when craving Filipino-style fast food. Chowking is a convenient option for enjoying familiar favorites!“

“Excellent food, freshly cooked and really delicious . Top notch customer service, owners Leo and Claudia welcomes all guest like welcoming them to their house. The price is very reasonable, all the friends I brought to them enjoyed and loved the food. Highly recommended, it’s a hidden gem in Sun Valley…. 5 star overall….“

“Been coming here for as long as I can remember - I suppose as long as this iteration has existed. The H.Way Frontier is a place you’re introduced to early on if you’re below the line film crew in Burbank running with a rigging or art dept./set Dec crew. This storefront carries on the tradition as I’ll often bump into fellow industry crew here.
All that stuff is well and good but the real reason we congregate here is THE FOOD. There are other good Chinese restaurants in LA but this place to me is by far the best. Consistently wonderful, delicious, very good portion sizes and a nice menu variety. It’s quick (15 minutes or less) and the lunch specials are a great deal. I’m not usually this gushy about anything but Frontier Wok Too deserves every bit of praise I can throw at it. If my family is in the mood for Chinese Food there’s only one choice for us and that is right here. With no traffic it’s still a 20 minute drive one way but it’s worth every minute once we’re sitting down to eat it. You can’t go wrong at Frontier Wok Too. If you haven’t tried it you simply must and you can be the judge.“

“A Los Angeles tradition. been visiting since the 80s and they still have their mojo! delicious! Personal favorites noodles in peanut sauce and szechuan dumplings.“

“I really enjoyed the food and it was not very pricey at all. Most of the plates, even the favorites at that, we’re about $15… Everything on the menu is Vegan 🙋🏽‍♂️“

“We tried Gourmet Palace China Bistro for the first time tonight and had a great experience. Everything we ordered was delicious, except the veggie dumpling, but the best review came from our 8-year-old daughter, Baylee, who took a bite and announced, “This is good beef!” 😂

As parents, we were just thrilled to see her happily eating something other than chicken nuggets!

The food was fresh, flavorful, and everyone found something they enjoyed. We’ll definitely be back. If you can impress an 8-year-old picky eater, you’re doing something right!“

“Fresh delicious food prepared to order.“

“Always nice service and friendly service“

“My partner and I have come to consider this our spot in Burbank. It’s always nice to come here when I’m in town. Delicious, affordable, and comfortable. I’m a vegetarian, and I’ve been able to order something different every time I’ve gone. Nothing I didn’t like! I also enjoy getting to refill my metal water cup at the table or ordering hot tea and refilling that little cup with the teapot. It’s the little things.“

“I went here today with my guardian and the service was really great, the lady who served us was not only nice but funny too. Don’t even get me started on the portion sizes as they are huge!! It’s around enough to feed 2-3 people. With my food I hardly made a dent before I got full. The food is truly to die for and the restaurant should gain more traction than it already does, it truly deserves more.“

“Nu Great Wok is one of those spots you’re really glad you found.

From the moment you walk in, it’s clean, quick, and friendly — the kind of neighborhood Chinese restaurant that actually cares if you enjoy your meal. The staff is always welcoming and the food comes out hot and fresh.

What really stands out is the lunch menu. They have a great selection — all the favorites like General Tso’s, orange chicken, beef with broccoli, sesame chicken, vegetable dishes, fried rice/lo mein options — and it’s all at very reasonable prices. You get a solid portion, not a skimpy one, so it’s perfect for a workday lunch or a quick bite without spending a lot.

Food quality is consistently good: sauces are flavorful, veggies are crisp, and the meat actually tastes fresh, not overcooked. Plus, they’re pretty fast, so you’re not waiting forever.

Overall, Nu Great Wok is exactly what a good local Chinese place should be: tasty food, plenty of choice, fair prices, and friendly service. Highly recommend, especially for lunch. 🥡✨“

“In MY opinion the food is good but is pricey the place is ok I would just suggest for more tables but food is delicious I always go there and get the big soup and I have to order rice and flat noodles and its delicious but it depends on how people like it and money costs but this is a newer rating for the people who want it and this is not fake advertising.“

“was absolutely delectable that night kung pao chicken sweet and sour chicken Walnut glaze shrimp fried combo rice it was so good we ate everything. but mosquitoes inside a restaurant was intolerable I went out with five at least five bites. I don't know if you need insect spray there but that was a bad night it was 100 outside and inside there were plenty of mosquitoes Dr Phil“

“I am highly critical and have a very high standard when it comes to Asian cuisine, but I can confidently say that Western Wok was fantastic. The lettuce wrap filling was incredibly flavorful—I devoured it all in a matter of five minutes. The fried rice was equally impressive, and I appreciated that the dumplings were perfectly cooked, rather than overcooked and mushy. They certainly don't skimp on the portions either; I have plenty of leftovers for a late-night snack (or breakfast tomorrow). I highly recommend Western Wok if you're craving delicious Asian cuisine, and I look forward to ordering from them again soon!“

“I have been going to Green Apple for many years. The food is fresh and really good quality. The portions are generous. I have turned my family onto GreenApple and the love it too. Lunch specials are great. The restaurant is clean and comfortable. Green Apple is my go to Chinese restaurant in the Valley.“

“Nice quiet restaurant I found while waiting on my friend at a nearby store. Stephanie who served me was very nice and pleasant the entire time! The orange chicken was pretty good, battered moist and sweet, but because I was in a hurry I didn't get to fully check out the menu so next time I will definitely try something else.“

“Not only do you get great fresh Chinese food, at very reasonable prices, but the service of the restaurant is top notch. Mary and Peter are the servers and they make sure that every customer is well taken care of. With how many people eat there you know the food is fresh and delicious. The portions are big, They have delicious healthy options as well. Check out their lunch specials. We eat at Rice Wok about 4 times a month, and Peter and Mary offer the hospitality and service that will spoil you.“

“Some of the best food I've had in my life. Our server was super friendly and helpful in serving our large family and a ton of fun. I love their round tables too that can seat 10 or more, great for conversation with large groups. Highly recommend!!“

“Yo.... Northern Cafe is so good. The beef fried rice was 🔥 the beef pancake was 🔥 the chicken soup dumplings was 🔥 the pork wontons in spicy was 🔥 and the house special beef soup was 🔥 the popcorn chicken was 🔥 and the cucumber salad was 🔥 10 out of 10“

“The food is delicious. :)“

“Great place. A cozy, family-friendly atmosphere and delicious food - the steamed peas served with the shrimp, lobster sauce, and steamed rice, podded peas were incredibly fresh. The Thai tea was amazing. The vibe is fantastic 👌

UPD: Visit this place once again, wu wonton soup is perfect with fried shrimp chips if you deep it inside is awesome, veggies inside steal fresh and steamed 🥦🫛🥬; Pineapple chicken 🍗 also cool with freshly sliced pineapple 🍍 😋

Coolest thing that everything sliced fresh and steamed 🔪💨

One thing that make me little bit sad (but this because of my knowledge of english, it's really bad because I'm not a native speaker. This is my second time at this establishment. I ordered food on the spot, but instead I got to-go, but they brought me plates later and I moved food by myself. No, it's really just me. I even pronounce soup incorrectly, as soap. And when I asked for a plate for soup, I asked for a bowl instead of a pot.“

“If you like Panda Express, this is the restaurant that started it all. Food is much better here, and there is a much larger selection than Express. Friendly staff, and great portions. You will not leave hungry.
From the wontons and paper chicken, to the orange chicken and Mongolian beef. We usually go with at least 5 of us, and 3 plates feeds us all. With a couple of apps, of course.
If you've never been, give them a try.“

“Such an amazing hole-in-the-wall! It is what you expect for 'Express' Chinese-American food. The food is solid and the portions are, of course, enormous! This may not be your TOP Chinese spot, but if you're in the area and want to feel extra full, this is the spot to go. Definitely worth it if you live around here!“

“I had dinner at Gourmet Palace China Bistro on Saturday around 6:30 PM with my family and ordered the orange chicken, beef with broccoli, shrimp fried rice, and a basket of steamed dumplings to share. Everything came out fresh and hot in about 15 minutes. The orange chicken had a crispy coating with a flavorful sauce that wasn't overly sweet, and the beef was tender with plenty of fresh broccoli. The shrimp fried rice had generous pieces of shrimp and wasn't greasy, and the dumplings were soft with a tasty filling. Our server checked on us a couple of times, kept our drinks refilled, and made sure we had extra plates for sharing. The restaurant was clean, the portions were generous, and we even had enough leftovers for lunch the next day. It was a great family dinner, and I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.“

“Sun Moon Garden is one of those extraordinary little establishments that reminds me why exceptional food should never be measured by its price tag. For what I consider an almost absurdly affordable price, you're getting Chinese food that genuinely rivals the quality and execution of establishments charging two or three times as much. It's an absolute treasure in Burbank, and one of my favorite examples of how extraordinary food can emerge from the most unassuming places.

Their chow mein is nothing short of magnificent. There's something incredibly satisfying about the texture of the noodles, the richness of the seasoning, and the way all those wonderful savory flavors come together without overwhelming one another. It's such a fundamentally simple dish, yet when it's prepared correctly, it becomes something genuinely exceptional. Every bite is wonderfully satisfying, and I find it remarkable how something so straightforward can deliver so much flavor.

And then there's their orange chicken, which is absolutely unbelievable. The contrast between the crispy exterior, the tender chicken underneath, and that wonderfully rich, sweet, citrusy sauce is everything I could possibly want from this dish. What makes it so delicious is the balance. The sweetness complements the savory qualities of the chicken rather than completely overpowering them, creating something incredibly flavorful and almost impossible to stop eating. Paired with their chow mein, it's one of my favorite combinations in Chinese-American cuisine.

What I particularly admire about Sun Moon Garden is the complete absence of pretension. There's no elaborate presentation, no fashionable culinary gimmicks, and no attempt to convince you that an expensive dining experience automatically translates to superior food. Instead, you're getting generous portions of genuinely delicious Chinese food at prices that almost seem unreasonable considering the quality.

I've always believed that the greatest establishments are the ones that understand the fundamentals of what they're making. Sun Moon Garden exemplifies that philosophy beautifully. They take familiar dishes, execute them exceptionally well, and offer them at a price that makes the entire experience even more remarkable.

An absolute gem of a restaurant, and proof that some of the finest meals don't require an extravagant bill. Their chow mein and orange chicken alone are enough to keep me coming back. Five stars without hesitation.“

“💯 % recommend go now and try“

“I have been eating here for years.
This is the kind of place where the staff remembers your name.
Any dish you order here will be amazing.
I cannot say that there is a favorite for me here. I usually end up taking too much time deciding on my order, because, I can't make up my mind most of the time. There are however times when I have something in mind already.“

“Black bean fish was superb! It came out hot and fresh in the fish was so fluffy and flavorful in the sauce. It was delightful. I grew up ordering house special fried rice, but my husband prefers chicken fried rice. Most times I’m disappointed and longing for my childhood staple but this chicken fried rice was actually flavorful and delicious. The chicken was very fresh and tender. Now, unfortunately, I ordered the roast duck and roast pork plate and left most of it on the table. It may be because it was the end of the day, but it was very lackluster. It tasted stale. The skin was not crispy and we almost asked to have it taken off the bill, but I did eat a lot of the duck so we just know not to order it again. The duck was at least edible. The pork was not. It was just so dry and lacked flavor. The skin looked crispy, but it was not crispy at all. It was leathery.“

“we come here often for their lunch specials and yummy food“

“Dined here around 3:30pm and it was empty, so great time to come! We ordered sweet & sour chicken, orange chicken, chicken chow mein, and Mongolian beef and all dishes were delicious! Portions are big (we all got small but we all had lots of leftovers).

They also have boba milk tea which was one of the best we've ever had. It wasn't too sweet and tasted like they actually used real tea. Perfect for a hot day.

Prices were good and the employees were friendly. Def a good place to go for Chinese cuisine.“

“The best Chinese in L.A !!! Always fresh & made to order.. excellent service too!“

“I love the new location and the Dim Sum served all day and night!“

“Best Chinese food in town“

“A small, one-man operation with great food and excellent flavor! The food is tasty, full of flavor and good sized portions. Just keep in mind that it’s cash only. If you appreciate good Chinese food and supporting a small, independent business, this place is definitely worth checking out!“

“09/20/2025

I was here often around the end of 2019.
I remember they used to have good chicken wings. I haven't been here since then untill today, and I won't be here maybe for years atleast since I eat almost everywhere.

By the way... if you're on a budget, this place is a good place to eat. Their portion is generous and the foods are good. The Chinese lady who take your orders, scoop the foods, and charge you on the register has been very nice everytime I visit this place, doesn't matter how long she hasn't seen me, she's always kind.“

“Been here many times and never had a complaint. The food is always good and fresh, large portions and very reasonable price. The Japanese chicken is killer and cant be found elsewhere. Also there are two noodle options, chow mein or rice noodles and they're both good. Its always clean and they have a large selection of options. Chicken wings are made to order and always taste good. There are closer chinese food places to me but I will drive here over them, its worth it 10/10 will visit again (and again and again)“

“The absolute best place for dim sum in the SCV 🥟“

“If you like orange chicken,.. look no more! This place made THE BEST orange chicken ever!! Panda Express doesn't even stands a chance!

Then they made this sweet, savory spicy chicken wings that I'm addicted to!!

Their soy sauced pork ribs are to die for!!

Prices are decent, portions were BIG, tastes are HEAVENLY!! Very authentic! Tasted like my grandma's & mom's cooking!“

“We used to have a Paik Noodle’s in our area, and it sadly closed 😭😭. Excited to find one within driving distance. Very clean, good service, and the food was delicious!

We walked in really late but they were very hospitable and we were still able to eat in.

We ordered the jjajangmyeon, tangsuyuk, soy garlic wings, and sweet and spicy wings. Everything was delicious. You can’t go wrong.
They gave us some jjambong (soup only) as well. That was also delicious. We seriously ate it all.“

“Everything we ordered was 😋delicious. These guys are same as Roscoe and Topanga Szechuwan Garden!!! Yum Yum“

“I used to frequent this place circa 2001-2002. Does anyone know what happened to the people who owned it at that time?“

“The best pad Thai I’ve ever had. I drive 30 miles just to have it“

“The sweet lady at the counter told me everything on the menu was good after I asked. And once I ate my food I understood completely. I ordered some wonton soup. It’s the best I’ve had in LA 😋 but i definitely believe everything else on the menu is equally as fire. It was so yummy“

“Off menu item, they are REAL Chinese. Food is legit. I’m extremely critical of Asian food when it’s not legitimate. This one is legit. This is not the other A&W, they also don’t operate on uber eats or doordash, order in person or call their name card. Amazing legit Chinese food made by born and bred Chinese chef from China“

“We've been ordering from Golden Hunan for years. The food has always been great. Whenever we decide on Chinese food there's only one place our family will agree on. Golden Hunan has never disappointed. Fast delivery and the food is always hot and fresh.“

“Good Chinese food! Try their sauteed vegetables. So good! The vegetables are nice and crunchy. Not soggy at all. Their fried chicken and salt & pepper shrimp are very good too! Easy free parking lot that's never crowded. Friendly efficient staff.“
