50 Best Chinese Restaurants near La Palma

“I really love Panda Inn in La Palma, California for dinner forever!! ☺️☺️🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞💞💓💓💓💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗🥡🥢“

“The food here is SO good. But, they have messed up my order twice now with giving me my sides and they don’t give me all that I order. I ordered chow main, fried rice, and egg rolls and none of it was received. I called them and let them know I’m disabled and can’t come in to return my food and they told me to leave a note in my order to prevent this from happening again. Food is delicious so I keep coming back and I’m grateful they exist.

Vegetarian options: Amazing vegetarian and vegan selection. I get kung pao tofu, fried rice, chow main, hot and sour soup, and egg rolls are all a must!!!“

“Ordered Jjajangmyung & Tangsuyuk thru Ubereats. The noodles & the Jjajang sauce was so yummy and perfectly made. The Tangsuyuk n the sauce was amazing. It was fried perfectly crispy in small portions, made it easy to eat. Definately will be my go to spot.“

“We had a dinner get together with family about 20 people… the food was great but Alejandra who waited for us was phenomenal. Can you imagine 20 of us, but we never had to ask for another drink, she automatically filled our glasses and she had a smile all the time. She was good in assisting our gluten free family members on what food items was available. We didn’t have to wait long for the food to be served. The service was smooth, she was quick, polite, and patient…she is one of a kind…we all enjoyed our dinner and time with family. Thanks to you Alejandra!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I’ve been craving Mongolian Bbq for a while but haven’t really explored. Saw this place with good ratings and must say, the ratings didn’t lie! It’s a cosy hole in the wall place which you know that means it’s good. Staff are very friendly and attentive, explaining the menu and how this roll. I got the all you can eat with my boyfriend, it was so much food! I will absolutely come again and I will highly recommend this place to friends!“

“the lady was so sweet and nice for me and bf first time there , the portions are true she gives good customer service she takes care of her customers i would recommend her restaurant. Food and vibes are good energy feeling homey and welcoming.“

“I personally love their jajangmyeon. The best jajangmyeon I ever had was at Yong Moon Lu @ Rowland Heights (please try their gan-jajangmyeon/간짜장), but this one is pretty good too. The jjamppong is not bad either.

I will definitely come here again.“

“I've been here a few times over the last couple of months, and it's been consistently great. It gets busy - come early during weekend!“

“Definitely coming back. It's hard to find a spot that makes good sizzling rice soup. This place had a really good broth and the soup was nice and hot (not spicy). Some place will serve you a warm to lukewarm soup, or have a bland broth. This was good. The salt & pepper shrimp was amazing. The chow fun was really good. There are actual flavor in their chow fun noodles. We also ordered one more thing that tasted like orange chicken but the flavor was way better. Also, the sweetness of the chicken was not overwhelming or too sweet at all. It was perfect.

After we received our sizzling rice soup, we didn't get the rest of our order until much later. We can tell that they forgot our order. It was understandable since they received 7 huge to-go orders in between our order. I really wanted to give the place five stars for service but that it usually a deal breaker if the food was terrible. Luckily the flavor and aroma saved the meal experience.

Place is definitely old but I like the hole in the wall look. Not the cleanest looking spot but definitely doesn't bother me. I look forward to coming back and trying other menu items.“

“Delicious food . Not a long wait. I will return 🤗“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lee's BBQ & Boba Chinese Food. I was thoroughly impressed! The flavors are absolutely delicious, with each dish prepared perfectly. The meats are tender and flavorful, and the variety of options on the menu made it hard to choose just one. I highly recommend the chicken Chow Mein and the dumpling soup — they were simply outstanding!

It's clear that they take pride in their food and customer experience. Whether you're craving a quick bite or a satisfying meal with friends, this is a perfect place to visit.

Can't wait to return for more amazing food.“

“I was trying to find an old restaurant I used to visit for great Jjajangmyeon, and although this wasn’t the exact place I remembered, I was very satisfied.
They served a small egg soup as a welcome dish — warm, light, and comforting on an empty stomach.
During lunch time, I tried the stir-fried vegetables, which were fresh and perfectly seasoned without being too salty.
I also liked that they offered small-size bowls of Jjajangmyeon — just right for a light meal.
Everything tasted great, and I definitely recommend visiting this place!“

“just ordered food from China Gourmet in Signal Hill, Ca.. upon entering the restaurant a young man greeted me with a hello. He was pleasent and welcoming. He took my order of mushroom chicken, mixed vegetables and rice with a two order combo. I had BBQ pork, half and half and jalapeño chicken, with two drinks. Returned home and started to dive in! WOW IT WAS AMAZING! The pork was cooked just right, the chicken was extremely delicious and chow mein was actual chow mein and not Top Ramen noodles substitute. my friend who ordered the mushroom chicken and vegetables couldn't stop eating. I've been to numerous fast Chinese food places and none of them have been as good as this place with the quality of food and the amount given. the price was moderate in today's society of price gouging it was $27 and well worth it. if you enjoy Chinese food and really want to get a bang for your buck as well as and enjoyment of flavors in your mouth go to China Gourmet!“

“Love this place! The food here is so good and the portions are big. There is limited seating but this shopping center has tables outside so you can also sit out in the patio area. Plenty of free parking. We go here all the time, staff is friendly and like that they are very clean. The steamed rice tastes sooo good which believe it or not some people do mess up but here it’s very good. We eat here then go next door for dessert.

BTW try the spicy orange chicken!“

“Been coming here since the 90s when my mom would bring us as kids. We moved a few times and still make the drive. The owner and staff are very friendly and the food is sooooo good. I will post pics next time I go. I always forget and we all dig in. Its my husband's and kids favorite spot too. We come here for birthdays and just because and make the 1 hr 30 minute (thats with no traffic) drive . I love that this is now a tradition for my lil family.
We always get the wor wonton house special soup, shrimp fried rice, house special chow main. Manderine chicken and beef and broccoli . I highly recommend“

“I usually take out/delivery and this place is really good. It's a small business so it makes me feel good to support the community. You cannot go wrong with the Chinese food here at all. I also appreciate the variety of Chinese food available here, its not just orange chicken, but they have shrimp, pork, and fish dishes. Even the boba is really good and nice and chewy. Don't skip the boba here either.“

“valuable, set lunch very good. especially Chai Siu Fired rice, homemade Chao Siu is really taste good.“

“We were very happy with our first dining in experience at this restaurant. We had previously ordered out and were very impressed by their food. But there’s nothing like getting your food delivered piping hot at the table and getting to see the large portions on your plate. Plus the tea that’s served in restaurant was delightful! Great, friendly atmosphere and wonderful service! We’ll be back!“

“Excellent service and presentation from the servers to the owners acting as MC. Very organized. I'm impressed. I would recommend to do your event here.“

“I've been here so many times I forgot to count. Great service, tasty and fresh food, what else could you ask for? This place is 5 Stars all around I would give it six if I could. Definitely recommended. I recommend the House Chow Mein, Broccoli and Beef and the Kung Pao Chicken/Beef/Shrimp or all 3! Yes all 3! Ask about it.

Enjoy, you can thank me later.“

“My favorite place to go whenever I'm craving hot pot nowadays! I'm not able to handle spice so I've only tried their Tomato broth, Chicken broth, and the extra mild version of the Beef Bone broth. But all 3 broths are delicious; the Tomato is sweet & tart without being too much of either, and both the Chicken and the Beef Bone are deeply flavorful without being either too watery & bland, nor too fatty & heavy. The selection of ingredients is nice as well, a good variety of tasty fish/meat balls, veggies, tofu's, and a surprisingly numerous offering of different proteins, including seafood, as well as various starches. Service has been pretty good thus far, every time I've been there, there were wait staff regularly coming by to check for water refills and napkins etc. I had to take a star off for Atmosphere though; there basically isn't any. But as long as the food stays as good as it is now, i could care less about the atmosphere to be honest.=P“

“The waitress was very friendly and helpful with selecting our dishes. We had chicken chow mein and shrimp chow mein and a side of spring rolls. The food was very flavorful and brought to the table nice and hot. I would definitely come back again.“

“The place was empty so we were initially a bit doubtful. I’m glad we made the decision to stay because ALL of their dishes were delicious, not just their Hainan chicken but also their beef, wings, and even their stir fried veggies tastes like it came from much bigger restaurants.“

“Such great food and the staff is amazing! Love this place brings back such great memories!“

“Dear Northern Cafe Long Beach, we are in love with your place and your service! Paulina is super helpful with her recommendations and is a delight to be around! She is this 5 star review! We ordered tons of food and are on our way home now to try, but already it smells AMAZING! Will be back to update this review once we've had a good taste of this great smelling food!“

“I love everything about Chowking . From Siopao, mami, wanton soup and desserts and drinks. Halo halo, buchi buchi, taho, and so much more. Feels like you’re in pinas.👍🥰“

“Tasty Goody in Norwalk is hands down the best Chinese food place this side of the Mississippi. I go there whenever I want some ? orange chicken, and it never disappoints. The portions are huge, and the prices are great for how much food you get. The orange chicken has the perfect amount of crunch and sauce, and the noodles are always fresh. I’ve tried a lot of places, but nothing really compares to Tasty Goody. Plus, the people there are super nice and quick with your order. Definitely my go-to spot for Chinese food.“

“The first time I went here I would give it 5 stars. I went between lunch and dinner so it was quiet and calm. The food and service was amazing. The fooooodddd yum yum yum. However in my later visits the food has not been so amazing. Still good but not super super delicious.
If you go when it's busy, it can be chaotic in there. But it's cuz it's a small place and it's popular.
The staff is always friendly and attentive though.“

“It funny, the name made us think it was like a yoshinoya. But it is not. Have been here several times since writing this. Wonderful sit down and dine spot for good Chinese food. Our go to is the orange chicken and mongolian beef. We also enjoy the hot and sour soup and their chicken fried rice. The staff is very attentive and kind. I also like the calm piano music they play as well. This has become our chinese food spot. I Highly reccomend it.“

“Good Chinese food with family or friends“

“We ordered a ton of food, and every dish was seriously yummy! The staff hooked us up with some great recommendations too—the stir-fried beef was super tender, and the chow mein was packed with goodies. Loved it all! The mung bean soup? Perfect for beating the summer！ prices is friendly…“

“I have traveled night and day for A Chinese restaurant that reminded me of home. No it’s only was the service so fast but everyone here is so kind. This is a place where community is really brought together. I have been in dire need of a good egg drop soup in this place was it! The orange chicken is so good, I will be, regular here once a month!“

“This is one of my favorite restaurants, I've been going there for years.The food is just super, from the appetizers to the main dishes nothing has ever disappointed. When I walk through the door they know what I want to start off with and will occasionally recommend a new dish.“

“My first time here was in 2011 ish. I had my lunch here with my coworker while we were both on the field near here. My second time here was in 2017 when I was still dating my boyfriend, now my husband. Today it is my third time here. Food has been good for years. This time, the ice water is from the tab water, and therefore I think their cooking and boba drink are all made from tab water.“

“This is the best Chinese food you'll ever have. The ingredients are fresh, the service is great, and the good prices are not compromised by quality.
The chow mein is excellent, the kung pow and orange chicken, crisp and flavorful, but mostly importantly the house chicken is divine.

Do yourself a favor and steer clear from other Chinese places a few blocks from here and come to Baby Panda.“

“Yummy yummy food!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Pickled Fish: The fish is so tender that it melts in your mouth, the sauerkraut is crispy and appetizing, the soup base is sour and spicy but not choking at all, every bite is full of sincerity! I especially like the light numbing aroma, paired with hot rice, it is simply a healing tool in winter!

Guobao Pork: Under the golden and crispy skin is tender and juicy tenderloin. The ratio of sweet and sour sauce is just right. You can hear the "click" when you bite into it! The texture is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is definitely a textbook interpretation of Northeastern cuisine!

Home-style tofu: The tofu is fried until it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It absorbs the fragrance of the sauce and is smooth and tender in the mouth without losing the bean flavor. Paired with the crispness of fungus and green pepper, it is full of texture, simple but full of homey taste, and it is a perfect meal!

The three dishes in this restaurant each have their own merits. The taste is authentic and the portions are substantial. You will become a fan after eating it once! Highly recommended to friends who love food~“

“A Culinary Gem in the Heart of Westminster - BAOS HOG Review Stepping into BAOS HOG, you're immediately welcomed by a fusion of contemporary decor and inviting ambiance. This small, yet noteworthy establishment stands out in Westminster for its innovative approach to bao buns, often known as "baos." Each bao is a masterpiece, with the Hog special possibly being the star of the show. The pork is succulent and flavorful, indicative of the care in preparation. Accompanied by crisp, fresh vegetables and a secret sauce that adds an unexpected but delightful kick, it's a harmonious blend of textures and tastes. Beyond the baos, the menu is an eclectic mix, suggesting influences from various cuisines, a bold move that seems to pay off. The drinks selection complements the food, with both traditional options and more unique offerings, indicating that the proprietors are aficionados seeking to provide a full culinary experience. Service is efficient and warm.“

“First visit with a friend who has been there multiple times and is one of her favorites. Ordered Walnut Shrimp, MaPo Tofu, Sautéed Eggplant, "A" Vegetable, Hot Chili Pepper Whole Fish. All dishes were delicious. My only disappointment was the amount of fish ratio to the price. Extensive menu and looking forward to returning to try other dishes.“

“Good taste, cheap price, great portions. What more can you ask for in a Chinese restaurant? Especially when you’re craving some take out for the family or for yourself. This is a go to spot for me and my family. I highly recommend this place to anyone, the staff are very kind and hard working. I always see the same people working here all the time, this small business deserves more love!“

“My name is Anne-Marie Buynak, Maria Buynak's daughter. I will be leaving reviews as of Maria's passing in July 2025. If you knew her, please keep her in your memories and hearts and I will do the same. Excellent service as always. Food is always delicious. Usually quiet except when busy with big parties, then it is very noisy.“

“was fresh & flavorful great service“

“Delicious food! What I appreciated most is that they were diligent in addressing a gluten allergy in my family. In addition to having allergies checkable on the ordering website, they also called me to ensure I knew that some of the items we ordered were not gluten free.

It made us feel very very safe in ordering with a good allergy!“

“Arrived there close to 1 pm on Monday, and we ordered a variety of items for the two of us so we had a plenty of food to go afterwards. I am told that they changed the ownership so I wasn’t sure about the quality/flavors, and I was very happy to find that all the food tasted great!!“

“Was hungry so went here for a quick bite. The line was ok waited about 5 minutes before I got seated. My server Joe helped me in recommending what was good to pick from the skewer bar. The beef quality was really good and the appetizers were nice too.“

“love their shrimp fried rice“

“Delicious vegetarian food at good prices. High backed private booths and great service.“

“While almost everything was closed on Christmas Day, this restaurant was open, and we were so grateful. We stopped by to order food because, let’s be honest—we love tamales and pozole, but after a while you want to change your palate and have something that’s not Mexican.
It was really nice of them to stay open for the holiday and offer takeout for everyone. Even though there were probably only two or three people cooking and taking orders, they were incredibly kind, patient, and professional. I truly appreciate them being open on a holiday.
The wait was long, but it was absolutely worth it. The food was delicious! We ordered sweet and sour chicken, beef with broccoli, chow fun noodles, BBQ pork, and vegetable egg rolls—and everything was amazing.“

“I love this little restaurant it was actually my 1st time going yesterday evening* they were gonna close in like 30 minutes but they cooked my food fresh everything was delicious 😋 steamed dumplings sooooo good* combination chow mien delicious as well*“

“First timer. Recently moved to the area and was looking for a nice Chinese food spot. Decided to try and they did not disappoint. The female worker was so accommodating. It was 30 min before closing and they cooked up our food fresh. The orange chicken was on point. Besides the food we also tried the Matcha Green Tea and Thai tea Boba so delish. Will be returning soon. Definitely recommend.“
