25 Best Chinese Restaurants in Riverside

“It was great.. hardly any patrons..but our soup was kinda "lukewarm"
And our food may have sat at window too long..when it got to table ..no longer "HOT!"
4*..
AS WHY OUR FOOD DIDN'T COME OUT STEAMING HOT...🤷
( WAIT STAFF took hitforsoup.
However food needs to be hotter..not lukewarm.. disappointed in that area. It was 3pm..so No huge. Crowd.“

“Great food and prices. nice people.“

“One of the last few remaining hole in the wall mom & pop restaurants. Food is excellent, I always feel really good after eating there, unlike other places that bog you down or make you feel sick. They have some awesome cook to order items (like egg foo young) I totally recommend! What's not to love about huge portions of savory Chinese food that can feed a whole family? Or have enough for left overs? These guys have been in the game for a while and sadly the economy just keeps pushing for corporate America. There won't be any decent restaurants left. Give Ho Choys a try! It's definitely worth it.“

“My sister recommended that our whole family come here. The landlady is so kind and the crispy pork is amazing. My daughter is very happy to have the nostalgic taste in the United States.

Parking: Paid parking, free for the first 90 minutes“

“Edit October 2024: I noticed that a Hispanic worker lady puts too much carbs (chow mein, rice) leaving less space for the meat items. The Asian ladies are more generous. Please fix this issue.

Edit: September 2024: I no longer recommend any orange chicken from here, due to quality issues. Too tough.

The chow mein is good but has too much onion and other veggie toppings. Same for the spicy orange chicken, way too many red peppers mixed in with the chicken. My kung pao chicken had the same issue, too many veggies and not enough meat. My advice is to remove at least half of the mix-ins from the items that I mention above.

Prices are good, about $10-11 for a Combo B. Service is friendly, and the drink prices are VERY reasonable, it’s about $2.50 for a medium soda which you can get refills on.“

“good food and good customer service“

“Awesome foods always fresh, peking duck is our fam favorite’s 😋👍“

“Where has this place BEEN? Wife brought home because reviews were good, now I want to go back cause it's GOOD. Orange chicken is best ever tasted, veggies are fresh etc, containers full, family's full with smiles. We WILL be back.“

“Delicious, always consistent. Since Dragon House closed on Magnolia I’ve been coming to Chen Ling Palace when I want classic sit down Chinese Food. It’s a longtime establishment here in the city of Riverside and Last of the old school Chinese restaurants. The older lady that owns it is always pleasant and the food is always on point. They’re one of the few places that makes the honey walnut shrimp with honey/mayo sauce, it’s one of their house special dishes and always outstanding, and I always get the fried shrimp, it’s the perfect addition to any Chinese meal. 5 stars!!!“

“Food is amazing! Came here with my homegirl and then brought my bf( we eat alot of Asian cuisines) and he loves it. We also tried the drinks , I had matcha 10/10 he had a strawberry juice 10/10.

Staff is friendly and attentive.“

“I ordered a Family Meal which is 3 entrees, soup, 6 egg rolls, 4 almond cookies, rice and chow mein. I added 5 cream cheese wonton and paid a total of $44.78, it's a great deal and the food is good! We got mushroom chicken, beef broccoli and shrimp chop suey. Liked them all.“

“This is the best I've ever visited..they are so generous and I will visit them periodically they always remember what I enjoy.
Everyone that leaves a bad review I feel sorry for because they just don't know
Nicest people who really care about your wants..
Love you guys Thankyou!“

“I love this place. The food is always fresh and hot. This is our go-to, especially when we are hungry. My favorite dish is the Creamy Shrimp ?. But no matter what you choose, it will be delish. The staff are very nice. They also offer party platters.“

“The food was very delicious and tasty with a big portion. You have a variety of choices and price is really cheap for the quality and yummy food and people get more bang for their buck. It's way better than Panda Express for sure. The service is good and atmosphere is very friendly.“

“Hands down the best Chinese food place ever!“

“they always give so much here which is great !! service is quick and friendly. i just wish my stomach didn't hurt every time i got food here , which has only happened at this panda location specifically. regardless , i am still going to keep eating here. you can use your rewards here which is great!“

“I like Hong Kong Express the walnut shrimp and Teriyaki chicken.“

“Service improved in time for my return on 8/10/24. I received all menu items I ordered and no one had trouble reading my order typed out on my iPad. That’s how I hope it goes every time.

See y’all next year cuz other events will prevent me from attending the one that happens here for the remains of 2024.“

“This store has just changed its owner. The food in the store is very rich. The set meal is too much for one person to finish. It tastes great, the color is better, the price is favorable, and the service is good. They just opened and they have tastings and drinks. It’s really good. Very worthy of recommendation and praise“

“Most of the Chinese restaurants are very unhealthy and greasy. However, their foods are very light and feel like home. I would recommend you order Shrimp fried rice, Shrimp stir fried, and chicken stir fried. The owner is very friendly and so sweet. Please stop by, you won’t disappointed. ❤️️❤️️“

“They are so nice here, and the food is the best "steam table" style Chinese food in Riverside. My family and I have been coming here since right after it opened.

Wheelchair accessibility: Very easy access for those with mobility issues.“

“My friend recommended this restaurant to me. So I came to this restaurant for the first time and ordered two orders, one set meal and one of my favorite Jumbo shrimp garlic noodle. I was surprised to see Jumbo shrimp garlic noodle here, and it tasted really good. My kids and I loved it. There are many kinds of dishes here, about 20 dishes for you to choose from the food bar . If you don't like it, you can order according to the menu, and the dishes in the menu are more varied. I can't wait to try their fried chicken wings next time. I heard that the taste of the chicken wings is good, and their chicken wings also have several flavors.

Parking: Super easy“

“Food and service was wonderful, portions were HUGE! I can see why my friend brought me here and said it's one of his favs. I've heard there's more than 1 of these in the area and this one is The Best, I believe it! It is Take out only so be prepared for that“
