50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Lawndale

“I've been coming here for a few years and the food is always great and the service is always wonderful. They're so helpful and welcoming. It's just a straight up, old school, Chinese restaurant serving up the classics. Portion sizes are pretty big and always tasty. I have not had a bad experience here yet. Nothing bad to say about this place at all.“

“So today was our second visit to this small business. Seeing past reviews it can be a hit or miss for some people, especially for long time customers.

So far it’s been a hit for me honestly, the portion given in the Combo B is pretty massive for an individual and it will make you full for sure. And the price is well worth it ($9.49) in my opinion especially with this current economy. Unfortunately they don’t have a lot of entrées to decide from, but the orange chicken and beef broccoli was really good!

Also the female employee who handles the register and serving is fantastic, greets you with a smile as you walk in 👌“

“I came in to buy some early lunch for my parents who have dementia. Naiyeli was very friendly and welcoming. When I wasn’t sure what to choose, she made helpful suggestions. The food was good and my parents enjoyed it. Thank you Naiyeli for being so nice and helpful!“

“Our family's favorite restaurant. Dad fed all of our missionarys there with families and friends. It is OPEN“

“Had an Uber credit to use so quickly ordered a pickup order and have been wanting to try this restaurant for a while. The zucchini and mushrooms salad was amazing, as was the chicken and mango. The order was ready in less than 5 minutes and would totally get food from them again!“

“Best little place in town!!! So sad to see them closing, so happy I got one last fantastic meal!!!“

“I definitely recommend the chocolate xiao long bao“

“Had a great meal! Forwent ordering potstickers in order to try the enticingly named Gang of 4 ×4 - a delicious decision! The Mao's Hometown was just-right spicy, and I'm sure they put more than $2 extra shrimp on my order. Service friendly and prompt, loved the art. I felt as though I had wandered back into college in the early '70s.“

“Came in for lunch and we were the 1st customers. We sat down and viewed the menu. Waitress did not bring us tea and after 5 minutes I had to call her over to take our order. It was definitely different than my experience with my mom. The food was good, but not as good as my previous visit.“

“nice place, food was delicious and good service“

“Just tried Guilin rice noodles for the first time and I’m absolutely obsessed! The broth is incredibly fragrant and soul-warming, with a subtle spicy and savory depth that keeps you wanting more. The rice noodles themselves are silky-smooth and have the perfect chewy texture. Topped with crispy pork, peanuts, fresh herbs, and a hint of pickled vegetables—each bite is a beautiful balance of flavors and textures.
It’s not just a meal, it’s an experience. Whether you’re a foodie or just looking for something comforting and delicious, Guilin rice noodles will not disappoint. Highly recommend giving it a try!“

“I love their Porridge with pork and century egg/duck“

“Super Dumpling is a great stop if you’re on the way to the aipport. The service was great (Thank you to our server Win who understood we were in a rush!!!) and the food came really quickly. We ordered the chicken and crab dumplings that was perfectly juicy, a true delicacy. We also got the Mapo Tofu and recommend going extra spicy because the flavoring was superb. Will be returning for the next dinner before dinner meal!“

“I ordered their new Spicy Orange Chicken Fries and they were good. Good flavor and good portions. Not too spicy for me so I asked for extra chili oil. I also ordered their house special chow mein XTRA spicy and this definitely was spicy. Both dishes were good in flavor for the price. The only bad is the wait time for the dishes. Since they're popular now, expect to wait 30-60 minutes so order ahead!“

“This place is a hidden gem and a longtime staple of Inglewood. As the neighborhood continues to change and become more gentrified, it still stands as classic that the local community genuinely loves. I’m really glad it’s still here and honestly hope it never leaves—people would be devastated if it did.

The food is amazing for locals who want a balance: lots of vegetables with just the right hint of fried and sweet flavors. Everything is hot, ready, and right in front of you. When ordering, it’s a little difficult to tell them what you want because eye sight is blocked by supplies, you have to point at what you want through the glass, and talk loud, the staff is older, but they’ve been doing this for a very long time. They are always generous so they should understand what you want. One plate is easily enough to feed two people. I can never finish a full plate myself and usually end up getting small boxes for everything. Prices are great, and contactless payment is available.

The vibe is small, quiet, and low-key. Seating is limited, with a couple of small tables and one table for four, which adds to the charm. It really does feel like a neighborhood spot rather than a tourist stop—Google Maps usually pushes Randy’s Donuts first, and honestly, we kind of want to keep it that way. People avoid it because they see “Donuts” and that’s how we like it.

I’ve been coming here for years. I remember when they had the donut side, which is gone now. I even brought my first girlfriend here, and I still come back every few months.

Whenever someone tells me they are coming to Inglewood, I always recommend three places: Randy’s Chinese Food, Bravo’s breakfast, and Tumby’s pizza. These places have been around forever, and they’re a big part of what makes Inglewood feel like home.“

“Great value for good food. All food is paid for by weight except items from the menu, like won ton soup. The soup is just ok but the made to order Mongolian cooked right in front of you is great for the price. You can make it however you like. Lots of meat, vegetarian, with or without noodles and hot off the grill. So hot that we usually bring it home to eat and it’s still so piping hot we have to let it sit for a moment. There’s always left overs!
The buffet food is good as well.
My kids enjoy making their own bowls.
It’s an affordable, family pleasing, healthy and quick meal option!“

“불맛 짬뽕 맛집~~“

“This was the best chines ive ever eaten. I would even suggest this to all my european friends to visit the US just for this place. Who needs the walk of fame if you have this chinese in your mouth, Mmmmh i dream of it sometimes. My body yearns chinese from this place“

“the food was absolutely amazing! 10000/10 this is some delicious traditional chinese food and 100% worth trying, the prices are amazing and the portions are HUGE! The lady worker who took our order was so incredibly kind and called us friends the second we entered, this place is truly a must try! Me and my husband ordered a plate and two soups, the soups come in a large size and have a super hot delicious broth with the best fresh veggies and meats, the plate was hot, fresh, and so flavorful! Panda express is nothing compared to this place, i highly recommend checking it out!“

“I order from No. 1 Chef often via Postmates. Something went wrong this time (not their fault, their computers were down), so my hubby and I took a quick trip to pick up our order. The lady was SOOOO nice and helpful over the phone. With that said, the food here is top notch! When I need comfort food, I get the egg flower soup and dumplings. The soup is ALWAYS hot and fresh and just feels like a hug. I've also ordered the egg fu yun, and trust this place is NOT stingy on the portions. Everything I've had has never disappointed. Yes, it may look like a hole in the wall, but if you want the kind of Chinese food that satisfies, give this place a try.“

“Had a wonderful experience last night with my family to celebrate my 60 year wedding anniversary. Food and service were the best! I always enjoy dining here because everything is delicious and they always make you feel welcome.“

“Very good food and excellent service“

“I love this place great place to eat and great service“

“Visited the Redondo Beach locations and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. My friend and I came for lunch and boy were we pleasantly surprised. The food was high quality and our server, Michael, couldn't have been nicer. We will be regular customers.“

“We enjoy eating out. Last night we found this delicious place which we didn’t know before. We spent a delightful experience there with great meal and a courteous crew and a talented cuisine. We added this fine restaurant in our phone list and we shall definitely visit again soon. We deeply recommend.“

“This place is better than what I was thinking I am glad I tried it they do not have many american foods but the pizza and fries were decent and I really liked the seafood the dessert bar wasnt as great as I hoped but honestly the best sweets were on another bar try the sesame ball and the chinese donuts those were so good I took some home I was sad they had put a banana flavor in the icecream machine but if it was vanilla I would have been very satisfied with a root beer float they took me by surprise but I think it was honestly and accident. I tried 4 types of chinese food chicken and they were all very good general Taos was the fave the coconut shrimp was the wifey's favorite we will be back for more.“

“Went there today for the first time. I tried the Wor Won Ton soup and it was absolutely delicious. I have a gut feeling that other items on the menu will be just as good. I’ll be going back soon. Also, the service was professional and kind 😊 Note: Take Out Only“

“This hidden gem food was delicious. I've lived in Carson all my life & mad that I never ate here. We had the beef fried rice, orange chicken, chicken chop suey, and dumplings. It's been a long time that I had good food like this. If you are in the area please try it. Best for take out not for dinning in.“

“Service fast Great food!!!! Being from Chicago we were unsure n went on Yelp-This restaurant came highly recommended“

“Every thing look so yummy n fresh ... Every body pls join n try it at Chinatown Express“

“Dan is a good quality place with great service. I really enjoy the 3 cup chicken which gives me a healthy option as I am currently striving to eat healthier. My daughter loves the popcorn chicken & my significant other loves the beef & broccoli. Issac (our server) was very attentive & even gave my daughter a free boba drink (best boba in playa by the way). Give it a try!“

“If you like quality Chinese cuisine, go to Little Asia ASAP! My party of three loved the food! We had egg rolls, sesame chicken, lemon chicken, and string beans with beef. We shared those dishes and had to force ourselves to stop eating once we were full! I highly recommend this great restaurant!“

“Vanessa N. was so sweet greated us with a smile and a wonderful personality.. She was so calm and professional easy to talk to. My wife and I enjoyed Vanessa recommendation. Definitely will be coming back again. We enjoy the food. Great portions, very clean kitchen and bathroom Music and Air-condition set perfect. Not to loud actually carry a conversation at your table and still able to hear your spouse or friends. Vanessa really added a special part to this great restaurant. Prices are very reasonable $ Ask for Vanessa N if you want amazing service. Thank you for making are first visit amazing.“

“Amazing boba I drive 20 mins just to get some here at least 2-3 times a week. The chinese food is pay per pound and their chow mei and fried fish are the best i’ve ever had. The safe are quick to take your order and make your boba, very nice and understanding. I believe it’s family owned and the cook always is brining out freshly cooked food so you don’t have to worry about food being left out for hours and only being kept warm because of a lamp“

“My family and I typically have Golden Phoenix a few times a year and it never disappoints. Definitely the best Chinese restaurant around and all of the meats, chow mein and variations of rice are delicious. My personal favorite is the Spicy Beef, which I would always recommend. Also the staff is always accomodating and extremely friendly! We will be returning to Golden Phoenix again“

“THE LADY IS VERY FRIENDLY WHEN I GO EAT THE PLACE HONG COMBO I TELL THE LADY I ONLY GOT $5 AND $6 I WANT THE FRIED RICE THE LADY GIVES ME TWO ITEMS OF CHICKEN SPICY CHICKEN OR THE PEPPER CHICKEN THE PLACE IS LOCATED ON 1347 WEST FLORENCE GOOD CHINESE HONG KONG FOOD LOVE I“

“I’m writing this because the manager at the Del Amo location - Eddie went out of his way to accommodate our catering order even though it was on short notice. He really went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs (there were many!) were met. This kind of service is truly exceptional and I’m very grateful to Eddie for making this so easy.“

“Love this place! Food is the bomb they sale breakfast lunch dinner and Chinese food!! If you haven’t tried this. You have to try it😍“

“My wife and I ate here on a whim, and it did not disappoint. We were on a time crunch so we decided to takeout. The three cup chicken and short rib dan mein were big hits in our house. Dumplings were also excellent. We look forward to dining at the restaurant again! Keep up the good work!

Parking: Parking is more than sufficient as it is shared with the shopping plaza.“

“Delicious food for your buck, best Thai tea & boba drinks, but the employees are just AWESOME“

“Very nice good location and parkig“

“I ate there yesterday, 03/06, with one of my bff’s, and the dining experience is consistently excellent. Smiley servers and helpers.

Before I get into my helpful hints, I need to single out Allison(Allie), our server, who was pleasant, thoughtful, and very attentive. She is a happy soul who seems to enjoy being servicful. I would be remiss if I didn't also acknowledge Haylie, the only female manager that I have seen onsite. She is amazing. I am not being hyperbolic; she is genuinely committed to ensuring you have a memorable and special dining experience. She stopped by our table a few times to check on us and make sure there was nothing more she could do to improve our dining experience. This is the only restaurant where I have experienced so much attentive service and positive energy, along with consistent food. It’s five-star dining—my helpful hint, especially if you’re a vegetarian or vegan and big on the veggies. If you have appetizers, order them first by themselves, and then, when you’re ready for your main dishes, have your server put them in second after finishing your appetizers. That way, you ensure that your second course isn’t sitting on your table. They’re so efficient that the food comes out so quickly that you’re still eating your appetizer, and the veggies are getting cold. Hope this review encourages you to try it. You won’t regret it. 🙏🏼🙏🏽“

“Food taste ok good flavor tried the Mongolian beef but sadly it’s more like Mongolian onions with a small side of chunks beef
For 15$ per plate I would have liked more beef
But I appreciate the amazing customer service please just fix the beef situation thank you“

“Great place for a quick run of Chinese food. I really enjoy their noodles and their mushroom chicken. The food is good and the people are very nice and friendly on top of my the fact that their prices are fair. Their Thai tea is ? delicious !! Order the large one.

Parking: The place gets busy and the spaces in the lot are not enough sometimes. Half of the time you find a space and the other half you have to wait for someone to leave.“

“Very authentic chicken fried rice. It was the best that I've had in a long time“

“We're traveling through & wanted good Chinese takeout & found this wonderful restaurant. The best egg rolls & pork ribs ever. We ordered so much food we brought it back to NM with us.
Also there's a bakery next door!“

“I tried this today for the first time and it was awesome. Takes me back to when I was younger- my mom would always get Chinese food on her way home from work. The prices are extremely fair- and I loved the atmosphere. Very old school type of place. Loved it. Thank you so much.

I got teriyaki chicken, chow mein, and 2 egg rolls, all great flavors and good price.“

“I hit up the self-serve buffet here. I grabbed a base of white rice and some fresh greens, then loaded up on the broccoli beef and a couple of veggie egg rolls.
The broccoli beef was the highlight—the beef was incredibly tender, the broccoli still had a perfect crunch, and the sauce wasn't overly salty or heavy. The veggie egg rolls were perfectly crispy on the outside and packed with flavor on the inside, not greasy at all. Everything on the buffet line was kept hot, fresh, and fully stocked.
Clean setup, great selection, and awesome value for the amount of food you get. I will definitely be coming back when I need a quick, delicious Chinese food fix!“

“Food and service were amazing. Everything tasted how it was supposed to, I wasn't left with a bad after taste. The bbq pork dumplings were really good. They had a hint of sweetness. The service like I mentioned was amazing. The workers kept coming to our table to make sure we didn't need anything, very attentive. This is my new favorite place. I'll be coming back often“

“I normally would get egg Fu young for my mom. Lately they're over cooking and it's hard dry and barely any sauce is put on the fu young. They're rude whenever you call in to complain. To me they're dropping off on the quality of their food cooking since it's more Hispanic cooking your ordered. I'm going back to 103 rd where the food is much better. Instead of telling me to come back and correct my order they were so rude. I'll miss the meat egg rolls but food wise nope! They're about the same. Nothing changes except the quality in the food. I found a better spot down at 103rd St. Food is great“
