22 Best Chinese Restaurants in Santa Ana

“Salmon Many leading nutritionist consider salmon to be one the best foods you can eat. Thanks to an array of healthy nutrients along with a punch of protein, salmon is a fantastic food for anyone looking to eat healthier or lose weight. And thanks to its flavor and texture, you can cook salmon in endless ways. Salmon is famous for its omega-3 fatty acids. According to the Mayo Clinic, “Omega-3 fatty acids may decrease triglycerides, lower blood pressure, reduce blood clotting, decrease stroke and heart failure risk, reduce irregular heartbeats, and in children may improve learning ability.” But the benefits of eating salmon extend far beyond those omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon also provides bioactive peptides. These improve joint cartilage health, increase insulin effectiveness, and control the inflammation of the digestive tract. Luckily, salmon is delicious both hot and cold. It’s a perfect family meal that pairs well with other high nutrient foods like spinach and black beans. Plus you can use spices like mustard and ginger to make the meal all the more appealing. Lastly, salmon is delicious when served cold on salads. So whether you are eating your dinner in a restaurant or eating it at home, the leftover salmon will make for a healthy lunch the next day.“

“Gloria was so friendly, she greeted us warmly when we walked in and was ready to take our order as soon as we decided what we wanted. She even offered a helpful, friendly suggestion so we would have enough food for our group!

It's so nice to see hardworking, professional people like Gloria and the rest of the crew that was working today...it's clear that they have excellent work ethic and that they value their jobs!

Clean location, friendly staff and delicious food made fresh to order! 🤗“

“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!“

“What an awesome little restaurant that popped up here. Was looking to try something new and found this amazing little bao spot. The most amazing thing is how they fry these bao. The bottom is hard and crunchy and the top is soft, making a soup filled bao in either seafood, curry or the standard pork. They sell them in quantities of 6 and 2 to 3 is enough to fill me! Highly recommend a quick lunch or dinner here, you won’t be disappointed in the authentic flavors.“

“Our first time here. This place is a hidden gem! We were in the mood for some Chinese takeout out and this spot exceeded our expectations! We had the orange chicken and another chicken sorry I don't know what it is called but everything was delicious. We came close to closing and the food was still 🔥🔥. The Mings (Aunties) were super friendly. 🙏🏽 Orkun“

“When I first tried this place, I came back several times because the food was simple, authentic,“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I visited Papa K in California and it was such a great experience! The Egyptian food is absolutely delicious – authentic, flavorful, and feels just like home. 😋 The portions are very generous, and the prices are really affordable, which makes it even better. The service was excellent; the staff were so kind, welcoming, and always smiling, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for real Egyptian cuisine. I’ll definitely be back! ♥️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ زرت مطعم Papa K في كاليفورنيا وكانت تجربة أكثر من رائعة! الأكل المصري عندهم لذيذ جدًا – طعمه أصيل ومليان نكهات وكأنك في مصر بالظبط. 😋 كمان كميات الأكل كبيرة جدًا والأسعار مناسبة وفي متناول اليد، وده بيخلي التجربة أحلى وأحلى. الخدمة ممتازة؛ الموظفين في منتهى اللطف والترحاب، ودايمًا بيستقبلوا بابتسامة، وده بيخلي الجو دافي ومريح. بجد أنصح أي حد عايز يجرب الأكل المصري الأصيل إنه يزور المكان، وأنا أكيد هرجع تاني ♥️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Eating here is kind of a unique experience. When we made reservations they asked us to order the food in advance. We ordered the coconut chicken hot pot (椰子鸡锅
), and braised beef daikon. The 椰子鸡锅 dish was interesting as it had coconut water, coconut meat strips, jujubes, and chicken on the bone we had to cook. They also were very particular where they told us to eat the chicken and broth first, then add the lettuce and cabbage.

The braised beef daikon dish was also quite delicious. Looking at the clientele around, it seems like the go to Cantonese style food in the area.“

“10.99 a plate is crazy and the food tastes fresh and my Boi look at the amount of food you get here 😋 I had to tell her to stop I'm trying to watch my figure and this lady packed my plate. This is the best spot in oc hands down. Plates start at 9 bucks“

“The food was great. The service was great. We were skeptical about this place because the locations but when we saw the people in the kitchen cooking the food was Chinese chiefs, we knew it will be good. I felt it was bit pricey but hell everywhere is raising their prices. Overall we will come back for take out order next!“

“This restaurant never failed me. They have the tastiest food ever and it's always fresh I love this place. They have the coolest employee's and the owner is welcoming and friendly. On top of that they have a good customer service. I give this place 10 out if 10. I recomend this place. Try them out ❤“

“First time here. I was greeted with a smile by a very nice man who took my order. I came in knowing exactly what I wanted to play it safe, and went with the classic fried rice, orange chicken, and veggie egg roll but when I saw how good the rest of the food looked, I began to question my choice... Anyway, the orange chicken and egg roll were absolutely delicious, and the portion was generous. I highly recommend it, and look forward to trying something else on the menu next time I'm craving Chinese food 😊“

“Food was delicious.
I ordered 1 item combo plate. The chow mein was thick how I like it and the mushroom chicken tasted great.

I did go before noon so everything was fresh.
The ladies that helped me were nice.“

“I came here on a review on google. The food really is amazing and the 3 woman who were working at the time were seriously as nice and human as it gets. I really like these people and their food. The price was a lot less than I thought it'd be and I just moved here from seattle last month expecting things to cost a fortune. This place is definitely a great place worth visiting and what you get for under 15$ is a lot. I got the chicken house special with BBQ pork on rice and chow mein.“

“as a xi’an local, I always wanna give a try from six alleys, because rarely there are authentic ones i can find outside of xi’an tbh. I went in and ordered 三合一 which I had back in xi’an outside of my school for years. the noodles itself and the mix are passed my taste test! I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you ever wanna try xi’an cuisine.“

“I really like this place I walk there on my lunch break a lot and the orange chicken is really good its always fresh and they pack the box full and it's only $5. Ans plus they are always really nice and friendly and always make me feel welcome when I walk in“

“This was my first time here and I came kind of late, so they were out of a lot of items. I ordered the shrimp fried rice, wonton soup and orange chicken. I should have gotten the family meal. Maybe next time. The 4 person family meal is $25.99 and 6 person family meal is $35.99 and they look like a ton of food. My rice and soup were made fresh and really good! I will definitely have to come again (a little earlier) and try some of the other dishes“

“The food is amazing, it’s full of healthy ingredients. There is a lot of spice so it is very delicious. As a person who was born in the Middle East, I consider this one of the best restaurants to go to while craving something delicious. Amazing!“

“I’m new to the area and work just down the street. I googled Chinese food near me and this was the first place to pop up. Drove over and tried it and throughly enjoyed my food! The Food is great, especially their teriyaki chicken and broccoli beef! Price is decent…not too expensive. Portions are huge! Will definitely be back for more.“
