“So good!!! Amazing. Love the food. The bok choy pot stickers OOOF! The best. 💜💜💜👑👑👑🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽💞💞💞💝💝👨‍❤️‍👨🧡“

“Very good food . Clean establishment. Great customer service and reasonable prices.“

“Amazing Food. We ordered quite a few dishes and everything was delicious! The Peking Duck and green beans were my favorite!“

“Ate dine in at this little hole-in-the-wall joint on a recent visit to LA. Close (street) parking was a miracle, but theres also parking (and bathrooms) across the street at the El Super. Portions for a Boil Bag were generous, one corn, potato, rice and a few broccoli were included. All amenities were provided: table paper, bibs, sanitizer, bucket, gloves, scissors for crab legs. Cajun garlic butter seasoning was delicious, not too spicy for the kids. Speaking of kids, seafood boil keep kids remarkably entertained! This place deserves all the good reviews. Our only (small) complaint is the distance to a bathroom, but it's a small price to pay for a delicious meal.“

“The best place in Dtla! Ask for Hiro, he was super amazing and kept our drinks full!“

“Had lunch at Jade Wok near Chinatown and honestly, it hit the spot. The standout for me was definitely the sweet and savory spareribs. They’re sticky, flavorful, and perfectly tender with just a bit of chew. Exactly how you want Chinese-style spareribs to be. The glaze is rich and garlicky with a nice hint of sweetness, and the green onions and sesame seeds on top gave it a nice little pop.

We also got the stir-fried greens, which were super simple but fresh and cooked just right. A little crunch, a little tenderness + great as a balance to the heavier dishes.

And the braised tofu with minced pork came in a deep, savory sauce that soaked into the tofu beautifully. The tofu was fried just enough to give it some texture on the outside while staying soft inside. Super comforting.

It’s not a fancy spot, but the food comes out hot, portions are generous, and everything tastes like it was cooked with care. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area and want that classic Chinese comfort food vibe.“

“A WONDERFUL RESTAURANT - THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS , THE PORTION SIZE WAS LARGE AND THE WOMAN SERVER WAS VERY KIND AND PLEASANT - AN EXTRA PLUS INEXPENSIVE PARKING WAS ADJACENT TO THE GOLDEN TREE . LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING BACK AGAIN .“

“I sampled their famous xiao long bao, delicious dumplings, savory fried rice and garlic string beans. Each dish was a taste experience, from the delicious dumplings in broth to the perfectly seasoned fried rice. The service is great and the atmosphere is inviting. Don't miss this place for authentic Taiwanese cuisine and unforgettable flavors. It has the taste of home.“

“came here for an amazing christmas lunch with my family during our vacation in california! the service was wonderful, and all of the dishes we ordered were super delicious. i especially loved the baby bok choy and the hong kong rice noodles! we ordered a mixed fruit sago drink at the end and i accidentally spilled it 😭 but they kindly gave us another one. i highly recommend this place for a nice lunch with family!“

“Absolutely the best new restaurant inLos Angeles. Wonderful staff. Gorgeous facility indoors and patio. Exquisite and unique delicious food.“

“everything is delicious and fresh 😋“

“Everything was amazing, the tea was heavenly. I just wish I knew what kind of tea they use. I fell in love with the toast, and I was so surprised that I couldn’t get it to go — I wanted to take three more with me 😭 Can someone explain why that is?“

“One of several new malatang places in the area, Bruin Bowl is not a large place, but they seem to have a solid selection of meats, veggies, noodles, and seafood despite their modest size. Both the bone broth and the chicken/fish maw soup bases are pretty tasty too. Excellent option if you're in the area.“

“🍜 Chinatown’s Comfort Corner – A Humbling Noodle Experience at Kim Chuy

Kim Chuy is an unassuming treasure that overdelivers on flavor, warmth, and tradition. It’s the kind of local gem that makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in—generous servings, authentic Chinese comfort food, and a no-frills vibe that feels just like home.

We started with the wonton egg noodle soup and a side of fried leeks. The soup? Not just good—it was built for noodle lovers. The broth was rich, the noodles perfectly textured, and the flavors so soothing that conversation at the table paused. It was a quiet appreciation of something humble and deeply satisfying, a true noodle moment that lifts your mood without saying a word.

We also ordered the broccoli beef chow mein, and I wish we’d snapped a photo before we dove in. The vegetables were crisp, fresh, and infused with garlic and savory chow mein notes. It’s not your typical fast-food-style dish—this is home-style, family cooking done right. Every bite reminded me of meals made with care, meant to be enjoyed and remembered.

Kim Chuy even offers pre-made leeks you can take home and cook—perfect for sharing, and trust me, they’ll go fast. Whether you’re a lifelong local or exploring Chinatown for the first time, Kim Chuy is a soul-satisfying stop that brings joy to noodle enthusiasts and food lovers alike.“

“Wow- pure fire here - best house hot sauce ever- mix between a Mexican salsa n Tabasco 🔥🔥 very tasty- well the other bestest item were the beef noodles!! Thick noodles!! 🫶🏻“

“I like this place about the food is wonderful“

“Omg!!!! This has got to be the best Chinese food in China Town. I love Chinese food. I have tried many Chinese restaurants. But the food here is is fresh and so tastee delicious. Everything cooked to perfection and well seasoned.
It looks empty. But don't let it scare you. Come on in and savor the best food in LA.“

“I have mixed feelings of calling this place overpriced, but I think it is overpriced.

Because if you only get a bowl of rice and one single dish, you can maybe walk out with spending only $10-15 for a meal, which is decent. But if you start even thinking about trying a few more dishes out you are easily going to spend $20 or even $30 for robot-made Chinese food (The food is, in fact, very good.)

But I feel the financial benefit of reducing labor cost by partially replacing human labor with machines, is not brought down to the consumers as much. At least that’s how I felt after paying $30 for a rice bowl and three small side dishes.

Oh, they do give you sturdy plastic cutlery and a nice bag if you decide to take your food home!“

“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.“

“Fantastic food at an extremely reasonable price. You can easily get full for 20$. We had a huge spread of dumplings, our favorite was the spicy pork dunpling and the pork and leek pancakes. Everything was delicious and seemed hand made. Service is very casual. This is a great spot to share food with people you care about you will get great shareable food and service that is attentive without being interrupting.“

“The atmosphere of the restaurant is relatively simple but comfortable. The waiters are friendly and provide fast service.“

“Love playing here. Can't wait to see you at my next show March 26th 7pm“

“Good food. Good prices. Dry noodles good, beef noodles soup was very good noodles and average broth. Worst version of cucumber salad -- cukes were dry (!?) and sauce was boring. What I make at home is far far better. Food came up SO FAST and that was remarkable“

“We tried pepper beef (very tender, a little spicy), chicken in three cup sauce (very tender), oxtail soup, chicken noodle soup (some pieces of chicken were a little tough), chicken dumplings in chili oil (spicy), baby bok choy, green beans, and egg fried rice.

Everything was delicious! Will definitely order from here again.

Price range was $30-$50 per person.“

“The ladies are really nice, got the pork and century egg congee and it had lots of pork in it compared to other spots I’ve been to around Chinatown! Also got their Singapore noodle stir fry which came with lots of various seafood!! I wish I also tried their fried shrimp but will definitely go back for that next time.“

“I got the dry hot noodles medium spicy and they were really good. Spicy but not so spicy that I’m in pain. It was really flavorful and the noodles were chewy which i enjoyed. I got it for take out, the food was ready quickly and there was no line. I would come back here to try the other stuff!“

“My favorite Chinese food spot in all of Macthur Park area,dont be afraid to enjoy this hole in the wall thats been around for many years. There signature dishes are unique and you want find a similar taste or smell else where. I love there noodle soup and there chow mean. Very delicious and great for the price. The build is old but don't let that fool you from enjoying a delicious secualnt Chinese meal. I have been going here since a child with my mother. I highly recommend if near the area or in LA looking for great Chinese comfort food. Very sweet owners of the restaurant.“

“All of the dumplings are delicious, and prepared very fast.“

“Handmade with love. Tastes as if I'm at my Halmoni's house. Delicate, real and subtle Korean flavors of my childhood, not too sweet or salty. My bf and I ordered the steamed veggie dumplings, chive pancake ((better than my Sumo's! Shhh)), king sized veggie dumplings, side of rice and miso soup. Cooked to order -- be patient. Soft textures. Sweet, hardworking couple. Our fav is the steamed veggie mandu. Vegetarian friendly. Perfect meal. ❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶 I love this place, if I lived in LA I'd be here all the time.“

“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!“

“On September 27, 2024 I had my takeout food, orange chicken, cashew shrimp with coconut and their eggrolls. The amount of awesome food was three times the normal any other restaurant. The $16 average per meal is way below the other restaurants. Everything I had was outstanding and is without a doubt my number one restaurant in Eagle 🦅 Rock!! GREEN DRAGON RESTAURANT ROCKS!!! take out only…. Low prices.“

“I missed out on taking a photo, but their beef sweet and sour pork is top-tier ( tangsuyuk ). The uni-jajang sauce is served separately and very generously; there was still plenty of sauce left after finishing the noodles. It’s so good that I'd recommend mixing it with rice as well. Nurungji-tang was so good! Love that crispy and chewy combo.“

“Ordered takeout online and it was a real smooth and easy process. Food was ready on time and packaged nicely. Got the beef noodle soup with the flat rice noodle and the dry mix rice noodle. Both were really good. Staff was friendly at pickup. They have a very small parking lot, but I lucked out with getting a spot. It does look a bit run down on the outside, but inside looked nice and spacious.“

“Came here on a whim with my husband, and I was not only surprised by how wonderful the atmosphere was. The food was delicious and got out quickly, the price was also very surprising. I will becoming back here, it's definitely a cozy spot for brunch! Especially with the staff being so nice and attentive, can't say enough good things about it!“

“I have been to a bunch of different Chinese restaurants as a Hollywood veteran, and I believe this is the best Chinese food in Hollywood.“

“First time here and I love the buy 3 combos get 2 drinks free or another combo free (Your choice) but has to be the two meat combos. I wish they had all the food available all the time but I guess its because we went late. Loved the taste of most of the food but my kid said the orange chicken could have been better? I didn't try it so I don't know what it tasted like. Overall I will make this place my go to Chinese food place. I plan on trying other items until I tried everything plus the perks of anything free is a win. The price is very reasonable and the portions are pretty good. I should have taken pictures of my food but I was just too hungry and excited to try the food here. Next time I go I will take pictures and update this review.“

“I love Coral Reef. They have amazing lunch specials! I paid $13.15 for tea, egg drop soup and a massive portion of steamed rice and a massive portion of chicken and broccoli. Service is extremely fast and there are always tables. The restaurant is very old school - the interior and itemized receipts are handwritten. My only complaint is I forgot to ask for an itemized receipt and they couldn’t email or text me a picture of it (for a work reimbursement). Still highly recommend. There’s a free two hour parking lot behind them as well.“

“Good service and yummy food 😋😋“

“I typically door dash from a different Korean Chinese spot but I decided to try this place out last night. I’m so glad that I did because their food was so incredible. Reminded me of the Korean Chinese food I have when I go to Korea. The noodles in both their black bean noodles and spicy seafood noodle soup were delicious. Fried dumplings were an impulse purchase but omg, incredible. We ordered a few other dishes and everything was great. So glad I found my new go to Korean Chinese spot! 💜“

“While the outside of this place isn't the best looking or inviting, when trying out the food it was good. There is seating, though since I'm a big eater and comparing it to the other places I wish the food portations could be a tiny be more, otherwise than that a good place overall.“

“Fortune House Chinese Cuisine delivers flavorful, well-prepared dishes with generous portions and a welcoming atmosphere. The menu offers a great mix of classic favorites and house specialties, all served hot and fresh. Friendly staff and quick service make it a reliable spot for satisfying, authentic Chinese comfort food.“

“Amazing Chinese food!

I came back and ordered Egg Fu Yung and Shanghai Chow Mein. Both excellent and super awesome old school! Great stuff!

Previous visit:

I’ve been here before and don’t know why I never returned till today.

The wonton soup is flavorful. Like as if they used MSG. Remember, MSG is not bad for you. It’s a lie that it is. Look up what George Takei has to say about MSG. I’m not saying they use it here, but the food is amazing! The wontons are great and the soup is packed with meat and veggies.

The chow fun is spectacular. Packed full of meat and sprouts and not much onion which is great! So good!

The orange chicken rules! Perfectly battered and tangy! So delicious!

The tea is great too!

Service is efficient.

They have a parking lot!“

“it's nice place for dinning“

“This place is amazing! They have so many things to choose from and everything looks so fresh and not dry like other spots you go to. Lady serving is very nice and fast . I mean they have fricken EGG FU YOUNG !! Made fresh to order NEED I SAY MORE ! And they have a combo family meal that is pretty damn reasonable. Will definitely come back again .“

“Best Chinese Chicken Salad there is!“

“As someone who really tries to avoid chains, it's fantastic to have this little Chinese takeout place close by. It's family-owned since... forever (I've been coming here since 1998), the food is great (not gourmet, but that's not the idea, either), and the service is courteous and speedy. I love this place!“

“Stopped by for lunch not knowing Tuesday is special meal dayOrdered a bowl - chow mein w/ spicy orange chicken (first time seeing it made this way). I have to admit, this is by far the best orange chicken I’ve had. It has a good balance of sweetness w/ a kick of spicy (not much but enough to add on to the flavor). To my personal liking, the orange chicken was slightly crunchy but really well cooked - otherwise id rate this dish a 5I enjoyed the chow mein. It wasn’t greasy like most places.Overall, I enjoyed it. Definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu items“

“This is not gourmet chinese food.. .This is just very GOOD americanized chy-nee foo at a damn good price. You will get your money's worth. I guarantee. I ordered a carry out, two item combo , ALOT OF FOOD. And very tasty , I was happy . $13 out the door 😁 Try it ,“

“Love love this place great people that work there amazing food. Great portions, fresh and delicious can not go wrong did I mention great prices too. You must try.“

“My first time visiting this hidden gem on West Adams. Their bold flavors and perfect execution ranging from cold apps, to dumplings and noodle dishes.

I tried their new Kung Pao Chicken, and wow--it's a must-order. The balance of spice, crunch, and just the right amount of sweetness made it one of the best versions I've had anywhere in LA.

Of course, the classics here never disappoint. The dumplings are tender, juicy, and packed with flavor; the spicy beef noodle soup has that rich, comforting broth with just the right kick; and their fried rice is so good you could happily eat it on its own or alongside everything else. They can also adjust spice levels.

Beyond the food, the vibe at Mian really adds to the experience. Whether you're coming for a casual dinner with friends or just craving some of the best Chinese food in town, Mian delivers every time.

Highly recommend checking it out--you'll definitely want to come back again and again. extra NOM“
