Chinese Restaurants near San Fernando

“I LOVE this place!! The bbq pork is so good. So is the bbq chicken. So is the Jalapeño chicken. The fried fish is bomb af!! Basically everything is ridiculously good here. And they pack it up!! Only thing I wish was better is the fried rice. It's mid at best. But everything else is absolutely on point.“

“1st visit. Seems like a very nice place. Had the BBQ beef ribs and fried shrimp. Came with 3 rice balls and cabbage. The ribs had good flavor, but were a little dry. They were sliced thin across the rib bone.
The shrimp were great. The breading was tasty and not overcooked.
The two meals were about $33. Good size portions for the money. I will definitely go back.“

“Visited this location for an early dinner. It had been a while since our last visit. Brian the Server was amazing. Best service we have received @ this location. We will definitely return & hopefully he is working so we can request him.“

“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.“

“Always nice service and friendly service“

“Needed to edit my online order but couldn’t after placing it, so called the restaurant and luckily was able to get some quick, easy assistance from David! He was able to substitute the item for me without issue. When I arrived, he confirmed my whole order for me and visually showed me that everything was there. Portions and quality were great. My favorite was the Mongolian beef. Would definitely come back, especially for a good lunch special!“

“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.“

“Finding a restaurant that consistently delivers great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere is becoming increasingly rare, which is why my experience at Ping Pong Chinese Cuisine in Encino was such a pleasant surprise.

From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed. The restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable right away. Whether you're visiting for a family dinner, a casual lunch, or a special celebration, the environment strikes the perfect balance between relaxed and refined.

The food was absolutely exceptional. Every dish arrived beautifully presented, fresh, and full of authentic flavor. What stood out most was the attention to detail—each ingredient tasted carefully selected, and every recipe seemed crafted with both tradition and quality in mind. The flavors were rich and well-balanced, showcasing the depth and variety that make Chinese cuisine so beloved around the world.

One of the things I appreciated most was the consistency throughout the meal. From the appetizers to the main courses, every dish maintained the same high standard. It's clear that the kitchen takes pride in every plate that leaves the door. The portions were generous, making the experience even more enjoyable and perfect for sharing with friends and family.

The service was equally impressive. The staff was attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly. They were happy to answer questions, offer recommendations, and ensure that every guest felt taken care of. Their hospitality added a personal touch that transformed a great meal into a truly memorable dining experience.

What makes Ping Pong Chinese Cuisine special is that it manages to feel both familiar and exciting at the same time. There is a comforting authenticity in the food while also offering enough variety and creativity to keep every visit interesting. It’s the kind of place where you can return again and again and always find something new to enjoy.

Another aspect worth mentioning is the overall attention to customer experience. Every detail, from the cleanliness of the restaurant to the efficiency of the service, reflects a commitment to excellence. You can tell that the team genuinely cares about creating positive experiences for their guests.

In today's competitive restaurant scene, it takes something special to stand out, and Ping Pong Chinese Cuisine absolutely succeeds. Exceptional food, welcoming service, generous portions, and a wonderful atmosphere come together to create a dining experience that exceeds expectations.

I left thoroughly impressed and already looking forward to my next visit. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for their hard work and dedication. If you're looking for delicious Chinese cuisine and outstanding hospitality in Encino, Ping Pong Chinese Cuisine is a place that deserves every bit of praise. Highly recommended!“

“Fresh delicious food prepared to order.“

“Delicious food. Owners always happy to accommodate my son with any changes to the dishes. They're very pleasant to deal with. This has become our new go to restaurant when we're craving Chinese food. This review is an update from 7 years ago.“

“Ms Rosalina is the sweetest Chowking worker ! I go there almost every week and she always greets me with a big smile! She gives the best customer service ! She makes sure my order is right and always gets it to me in a timely manner ! No matter how busy the place gets she is patient with everyone’s order! Thank you ms Rosalina for all you do!“

“We walked up and weren't sure if the place was open, but luckily some other patrons walked up at the same time so we followed them in. So glad we did! This is one of those Chinese places that opened when Adam was a lad and hasn't changed its approach since. The carpet looked original (and therefore quite worn, but that is literally the only thing I would change if I bought the place. I'd pay the chef whatever they wanted to stay, keep the service staff, keep the decor, and above all else, keep the menu. Traditional Chinese-American restaurant menu (quite long but mostly just variations on the same dozen recipes, swapping out proteins), but extremely well executed. We are new residents of the Valley and we will be regulars here.“

“OMG!! The food is so clean!! I highly recommend the Honey Walnut Shrimp and Green Beans. The Beef Chow Mein is Killer. They have Imported Japanese beer that is hard to get anywhere else. Saran was my server he was so personable with a great sense of humor. Great date spot!!! Plenty of open space with a large parking area.“

“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.“

“Few months ago when I was at work nearby. I checked Google maps to decide what I was going to have for lunch, after checking some places and reading some reviews I decided to have some Chinese food. I honestly love when the restaurants have a lunch special. Once I got here since it was my 1st time I was a bit confused about parking, but his restaurant is located along the main street but there is a rear parking, plenty of space. Once inside the workers are very friendly and welcoming. The place is gorgeous, I wish I could have sat down and enjoy my meal there. I had some meat with mix veggies and steamed rice, so good. Maybe next time if I'm around I'll eat right on the spot. This is a place anyone should try“

“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. 🥡✨“

“First time here, and we were thoroughly impressed by the excellent service, comfortable seating, and—most importantly—the food! The BBQ Spare Ribs were incredibly tasty, and it was a thoughtful touch when our server brought over handi-wipes for our sticky hands. The Veggie Egg Rolls were nice, crunchy, and packed with flavor. For entrees, both the Beef with Broccoli and the Shrimp Chow Fun were excellent—and they tasted even better as leftovers the next day! Prices are very fair. We will definitely be returning! ✅“

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

“Saturday at noon. All the stars aligned. Found parking right in front. Minimal wait for a table of 6. By the tine the rest of our party arrived they were ready to seat us. Afterwards we walked around 99 ranch next door to burn off some of the food.

Our group ordered as family style and here is our hit list:
1. Sam Woo platter (roast duck, roast pork, chinese bbq pork, soy sauce chicken) - 1
2. Hot sour soup
3. French style beef - C5
4. Orange chicken
5. Eggplant with minced pork (spicy)
6. Bbq pork Fried rice“

“I am truly head over heels for this place as is my partner! We can order one meal (noodles w/two entrees) for $13 and it will feed the both of us with a little leftover for a small lunch the next day. The staff is always so sweet and I've always felt so welcome here. Their noodles are literally one of my favorite things in this city.“

“My gal and I have been frequenting China Wok for over twenty years and, frankly, the food is always good. This level of service, and excellence, is a rarity--- the consistency of which is remarkable. For a real "old school" Chinese atmosphere, China Wok is it; as well, the prices are still reasonable. You won't find a better restaurant serving this cuisine in Santa Clarita, period.“

“The food is fantastic. Everything was fresh and tasted fantastic. Better than any other Chinese restaurant I've tried in LA. Also, their egg rolls are TRUE egg rolls like you find back on the East Coast, not the whimpy pinky-sized spring rolls. I ordered takeout, and the staff I interacted with both over the phone and in person were friendly and accommodating. Will be a repeat customer.“

“We’ve been coming to Green Apple Bistro since before my grandkids were born, and now they’re already 9 years old—that’s how long this place has been part of our family tradition.

The food is consistently great, and the service is always excellent. One of the main reasons we keep coming back is Eddy, who always gives us the best service. We genuinely look for him every time we visit because he makes us feel so welcomed and taken care of..Even though we live about a 45-minute drive away, we never mind the trip because it’s always worth it.

We’ll definitely keep coming back for many more years.“

“The food is delicious. :)“

“I was staying at a nearby hotel and decided to come here. I have to say, the chicken in black bean sauce, kinda slaps. It’s a bit of an unassuming joint, and more of a takeout spot, but they do have plenty of seating. Definitely coming again next time I’m in the area! 👍🏾👍🏾“

“We picked up a door dash order and it was missing an item. Jasli was super helpful and offered to give us a medium item to replace it. Had to wait a few minutes while it was cooked. She apologized for the inconvenience and handled the entire situation very well. All while taking care of all the other customers in line. Appreciate her kind and excellent service as someone who works in customer service as well. Thank you.“

“We ordered catering for a large birthday party (around 16 people) and were very happy with not only the food, but our whole experience. We called during lunch hour 2 days before and Mary took our number to call us back. She took our order and was willing to accommodate the large party/order, even though it wasn't listed specifically on their menu. When my husband arrived to pick up the order, everything was ready on time, fresh, and hot! He mentioned that upon picking up the order he met a nice and thankful staff. Our guests were very happy with the food and we had tons of leftovers for our guests to enjoy even after the party. Definitely recommend and sending a big THANK YOU!!“

“The restaurant was empty but had a few people picking up food, the food was great, it was a little dark inside just natural lighting which bugged out my friend. The ladies attending us were very nice and attentive . Would definitely come back if I'm in the area.“

“Best Chinese food in town“

“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 🙋🏽‍♂️“

“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.“

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

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

“Wonderfully fresh and tasty. The egg fou young is superbly done, tastes like New York City Chinese food. I ordered delivery and yes, you can order directly through them it arrived well packaged with all the extras requested and delivery person was equally as careful and attentive. This is a small family owned business that truly cares. I’ll certainly be ordering from them again!“

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

“Great spot for lunch, very quick and friendly service! I will be coming back here to try more items on their menu, I had the kung pao lunch order which was served with a soup, rice and an egg roll. Prices very reasonable and food was delicious!“

“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.“

“I love this place... ribbs, hire soup, fried and white rice, egg rolls, lots to choose from LUNCH MENU 11AM-3PM AWESOME 😋“

“I've been to Asian food restaurants from Monterey Park.. L A. ... West L.A. So I was pleasantly surprised at North West valley of Porter Ranch. Golden Hunan food was excellent and service made for a lovely experience. Now I have a reason to visit Porter Ranch...“

“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.“

“Dine here today while on a break from work and enjoyed it so much. Immediately went into my list for favorite restaurants for a casual fast bite. I got the walnut shrimp and it had the best crunch I’ve ever had in this type of dish. My lunch all came along with pancit aka noddles, rice, and a buchi. All for 10 dollars. All delicious.“

“Great food, prices are incredibly affordable, and they have plenty of parking on site. The employees are always friendly and quick to assist so they keep the line moving. Best thing so far about this spot though? They have Char Siu, it's one of my favorite dishes and I've been struggling to find it here. The portions are incredibly large too, probably could split it between 2-3 meals depending on how much you eat.“

“💯 % recommend go now and try“

“This location has been a family favorite for decades.
We take everyone there.
The food options are extensive and everything is delicious. We always eat family style.
If you go for the lunch specials, stay for the soup, even on a hot 🔥 day. You can't go wrong with any of the options.
The broccoli 🥦 beef is one of my favorites as is the sweet and sour chicken 🐔. All of the vegetables are crisp and crunchy.“

“Great Chinese Food. Brought the whole family and everyone loved it. Highly recommend the spicy calamari!!“

“Hot Wok has some of the most delicious Chinese food: fresh, flavorful, and full of authentic taste. Everything tastes homemade, the portions are generous, and the prices are very affordable for the quality. Definitely a great spot when you want something satisfying and consistently good.“

“Yo, they be giving out them PORTIONS!!!! You could literally feed the people of one of their serving sizes. Just massive! And the process are low! I see why they stay busy! The restaurant itself is fairly bare. You can sit, but tables are severely limited. Very bare bones, but maybe cuz they put all the money into the food! Not mad at that. And they speak Spanish, so they know how to serve the area they're in!“

“We had early dinner there today. Wonton soup was delicious. Chicken in garlic sauce was extremely tasty and vegetable noodles was succulent. The service was utmost friendly and polite. Thank you.“

“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!“

“The food is very good, the service is excellent, and the portions are very large. Depending on what you order, it can cost almost $12, but it's worth it because you'll be full. The food actually has flavor, unlike Panda Express. It's definitely worth buying a plate of Chinese food here.“
