50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Santa Fe Springs

“The woman that took my order, I should have got her name, was very kind, helpful and informative. I will definitely be back again.“

“Solid casual spot for very fast quality pickup! This is a nice solid American Chinese restaurant that has ample seeding if you want to sit but is also very fast if you want to run in and grab a plate everything is ready made. I got the wonton soup with shrimp and a one item combo. All vegetables were fresh, shrimp was excellent, wontons were jumbo! Broth was seasoned very well, definitely will go back. Fast, affordable, fresh, tasty, I would skip Yoshinoya and come here.“

“I want to share that we had a amazing time last night. My wife and I went out for date night and had an amazing service with Patrick. He was very attentive and gave great recommendations on food, desserts, and drinks. His service is the type of service that makes you want to keep coming back to restaurants.“

“Delicious & authentic Cantonese and Vietnamese cuisine! Everything was so fresh and well prepared. Service was spectacular!“

“High rating both on yelps and Google Maps.. hip ambience .. lots of original arts displays in restaurants.. first time eating this kind of Chinese cuisines from China.. must eat is the sour soup with fish .& lemon grass is the bomb! Ditto with kung pao chicken. It is different than other Sichuan dishes.. it is juicy !“

“This place exceeded my expectations! The spicy boiled fish was flavorful and authentic, with just the right level of heat and tenderness. The fish was very fresh and paired perfectly with rice. The bok choy was cooked just right and balanced the meal nicely, and the fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy inside without being greasy.

Portions were generous, food came out quickly, and everything tasted freshly made. The restaurant was clean, and the service was friendly and attentive. Definitely a great spot for a casual meal with friends or family. I’ll be coming back!“

“The food is so bomb walked in food look a lil old there were about to close and she said don’t worry ima make it fresh for you made us fresh chow mein egg rolls and orange chicken she’s awesome recommend it a lot the lady at front is a sweet heart made me feel so loved“

“Great Dim Sum spot for classic dim sum food and not too long on wait for a table.“

“There was such a long wait here on a Sunday night, but it was totally worth it. Little Skewer is my favorite place to get skewers. Once you step inside, you’ll understand why it takes forever to get a table - you won’t want to leave! The atmosphere of the restaurant seems specifically curated to create the perfect environment for eating and drinking. Beers were BOGO. Chinese wines were served in tea pots and dainty little saucers. Beneath the tavern lights, a lounge singer sweetly serenades the diners through the huge karaoke machine at the front of the store.

Service is mostly done yourself through an iPad. You place your own order through the system and workers bring the food out to you.

Meats such as beef and lamb skewers are ordered in batches of 10 and will most likely make up the bulk of your skewers, but there are many other types of additional skewers to choose from. An unexpected favorite for me was the king oyster mushroom skewers. I don’t even like mushrooms, but these king oyster mushrooms were irresistible. Biting into the springy flesh was so satisfying. The spicy, vibrant flavors and juiciness made my mouth water and crave more. The scallops, served in their shells with glass noodles, garlic, scallions, and chili paste, were addictive enough to pound back like shots. I also really liked the chicken skin skewers because the crispiness provided a nice contrast to the other dishes. And I liked the pineapple sausage so much that I ordered two.

I would totally recommend Little Skewer for dinner, catching up with friends, and a good time.“

“This place deserves every bit of five stars. No matter what you order, the food is absolutely delicious. Every dish is flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care.
What impressed me even more than the food was the service. The staff are incredibly attentive, friendly, and well-coordinated. Their teamwork and efficiency make the entire dining experience smooth and enjoyable. Everything arrived quickly, the restaurant was very clean, and the atmosphere felt welcoming.
Finding a place like this on a Sunday afternoon truly felt like a little moment of happiness. Great food, great service, and a great experience overall. I will definitely be coming back! ★★★★★“

“Ever since some of my favorite restaurants have closed down, I have been looking for my next regular place to get some lamb and pita soup. After a long shift at the hospital, I Decided to give this place a try and it did not disappoint
Their lamb and pita soup is really delicious as well as their crispy, spice intestine and their cumin lamb burger
Their staff is friendly and the food comes out in a timely manner“

“Food is delicious! If you like spicy can try it. If not, you can order one for non-spicy. Many different choices!“

“I personally love their jajangmyeon. The best jajangmyeon I ever had was at Yong Moon Lu @ Rowland Heights (please try their gan-jajangmyeon/간짜장), but this one is pretty good too. The jjamppong is not bad either.

I will definitely come here again.“

“Highly recommend! We live a half hour away from this dumpling house, and were in the neighborhood to get our car serviced. We decided to have lunch here and it’s extremely tasty! Everything was very good. We will definitely come back for more, even if we have to drive a half hour ☺️.“

“Ordered the beef fried rice and orange chicken on Uber eats. Food was fresh, had a better price than other restaurants and I appreciate how many condiments I received to go with. Will definitely be ordering from here again. I took pictures and posted on Uber eats.“

“I really love Panda Inn in La Palma, California for dinner forever!! ☺️☺️🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞💞💓💓💓💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗🥡🥢“

“I've been here a few times over the last couple of months, and it's been consistently great. It gets busy - come early during weekend!“

“We ordered the sauerkraut fish and the portion size was huge. It was more than enough for two people, and we still had a lot of leftovers to take home. The flavor was really good--savory, tangy, and comforting without being overwhelming.

We also tried the quail eggs, which were battered and fried. They were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and honestly super tasty. Perfect little bite-sized snacks.

Overall, great portions, solid flavors, and definitely worth it if you're hungry or want leftovers for later. Would come back again!“

“One of the BEST eating experiences I've ever had.
Not only had I never been here before,
But I had never tried Szechuan food.

I'm not local to this area, but my friends one day were raving about this place. We drove over 40 minutes to go here,
And honestly I didn't expect too much,
Just wanted to hang with the boys,
But once I took my first bite-
Wwwaaaaoooooowww. I was SO surprised at how unique and delicious this flavor was.

We ordered a lamb plate, where they served it with toothpicks, I'm uncertain of the name of the dish,
But my goodness. It was one of the best things I've eaten. I love spice, and this was spice in such a unique way that I had never had before. My lips were numb, not in an uncomfortable way, but in a truly exciting way as far as a food experience is.

We also got other plates,
But to me the clear stand out was the lamb dish with the toothpicks.

If this place was any closer,
I'd be paying rent there, eating there like 3 times a week 😂

The staff is friendly and extremely accommodating, attentive, and helpful.

Our dishes came with this lovely tea, and perfectly steamed rice.

It was such a satisfying experience all around that I had to write this review to support their business.

Now, I don't think I'll be able to eat Szechuan food anywhere else and honestly- I am not upset about that.

If you haven't tried this hidden gem,
It's with the trip out to experience it.

Parking is... Horrible honestly, the restaurant faces a busy street,
But even still,
It's absolutely worth going here.

Bring anyone who's like me and hasn't tried Szechuan before,
And they'll be just as happy with their experience as I was.

Look forward to coming back here in the future.“

“Delicious food . Not a long wait. I will return 🤗“

“It's still the best restaurant for me and my family. Can't believe every time I eat their food, feel the same as the first time, when your first and last bite are equal of tasteful, you know you're hitting the right spot.

Thanks to this family for giving me the pleasure of being a diner at this place.“

“This Chinese place is just too cute and adorable. They have great food, be it take out, delivery or dine in. We have done all three. It can get crowded and I don't think they take reservations. It is worth the wait.

The service is nice. The staff is wonderful and they know the menu well. You can call ahead and your food will be there for you to pick up. We often just have it delivered.

All of their food is super. We really love all their rice dishes and they are packed with flavor. Their shrimp dishes are really good and anything with crab will make you happy.

Parking is easy and yes, you will have to wait in line, but again, it is well worth it. So have fun and enjoy. It is also very clean, including the bathrooms.“

“Great Chinese food... Very authentic. Love their beef broccoli, chicken chow mein, fried shrimp, fried rice, kung pow chicken, and chicken corn soup. These are what I can vouch for, and I recommend any of them. There's plenty of parking, and the service is friendly.“

“Revisited this place after a few years and was happy to see they’ve reopened in Baldwin Park.

The highlight was definitely the handmade soup dumplings. The crab roe xiao long bao was juicy with plenty of soup, and I liked that they offer a non-sweet option. The larger crab roe soup dumpling was especially memorable—rich, savory, and very nostalgic, reminded me of ones I had growing up in Jiangsu.

We also tried the Wuxi-style pork ribs and crispy eel, both well done with classic flavors. Other dishes like the rice cakes and stir-fried greens were simple but satisfying.

Overall, it’s a solid spot for Jiangzhe-style comfort food. Prices are reasonable and quality feels consistent—worth a visit if you’re craving authentic flavors.“

“We were very happy with our first dining in experience at this restaurant. We had previously ordered out and were very impressed by their food. But there’s nothing like getting your food delivered piping hot at the table and getting to see the large portions on your plate. Plus the tea that’s served in restaurant was delightful! Great, friendly atmosphere and wonderful service! We’ll be back!“

“I love everything about Chowking . From Siopao, mami, wanton soup and desserts and drinks. Halo halo, buchi buchi, taho, and so much more. Feels like you’re in pinas.👍🥰“

“I googled "best Chinese in LA" and then this popped up as the #1 place. So we drove - and had a very good meal. However, if you expect the classic Chinese dishes, you will be disappointed. This is Shezuan, "a different animal". So no rice, no sweet-and-sour-this-and-that. So be prepared for very spicy Szechuan food. Noodles. No rice. Try the dumplings, they were delicious. We ordered mild (1 out of 5 spice degrees) and we were burning inside (we had two separate orders of dumplings - but spice grade 1. There is no consistency, so be careful). So if spicy is what you are "in" for, you'll love it. The ambiance is sort of authentic ;-) - the sign on how to use the toilet (outside the restaurant in the alley) says more than words. But then, it was $100 all-in for the four of us only. My advice: I could barely understand the service language. Better check the menu before you go. As we were first-timers, I wanted to share three starters and three mains among the four of us and leave it up to the waitress to make us explore - she did not understand. I asked if they served beer. The answer was "noodles or dumplings". :-)“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lee's BBQ & Boba Chinese Food. I was thoroughly impressed! The flavors are absolutely delicious, with each dish prepared perfectly. The meats are tender and flavorful, and the variety of options on the menu made it hard to choose just one. I highly recommend the chicken Chow Mein and the dumpling soup — they were simply outstanding!

It's clear that they take pride in their food and customer experience. Whether you're craving a quick bite or a satisfying meal with friends, this is a perfect place to visit.

Can't wait to return for more amazing food.“

“YGF Malatang in Artesia is basically a choose-your-own-adventure for people whose love language is soup. You grab a bowl, go a little feral in front of the ingredient wall, and emerge with the exact spicy, slurpable masterpiece your heart desires. The selection is dangerously good, with everything from fresh greens and noodles to all the savory add-ins that make you start rationalizing a second bowl before you’ve even paid. Once it all comes together, the broth is rich, deeply flavorful, and wonderfully tingly in that classic mala way that says, “yes, your lips are numb, and yes, you’re very happy about it.” On top of that, the place is clean, bright, and efficient, so the whole experience feels less like chaos and more like a very delicious personal victory!“

“First time every eating in a restaurant on a styrafoam plate, but it didn't take away from my meal. Tried out their noodles with beef and I found it to be quite tasty with the sauce. Small simple little place, tempted to return for their breakfast and evening specials“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great experience overall. The food was delicious, well prepared, and full of flavor. The portions are large and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and amount of food you get, definitely worth it.

The service was fast, friendly, and attentive, and the atmosphere was clean and pleasant. Everything from start to finish was very enjoyable. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place.“

“The place was empty so we were initially a bit doubtful. I’m glad we made the decision to stay because ALL of their dishes were delicious, not just their Hainan chicken but also their beef, wings, and even their stir fried veggies tastes like it came from much bigger restaurants.“

“I kept hearing about people raving about this place as best Hainan Chicken place in SGV. That is saying a lot as SGV is Mecca of authentic Chinese food in SoCal if not USA.

The dining area is a bit limited. There is seating indoors but barely 2 tables and counter seating. There is outdoor seating on the side however.

Hainan chicken will not disappoint. It is just delicately prepared. Tender and flavorful.“

“just ordered food from China Gourmet in Signal Hill, Ca.. upon entering the restaurant a young man greeted me with a hello. He was pleasent and welcoming. He took my order of mushroom chicken, mixed vegetables and rice with a two order combo. I had BBQ pork, half and half and jalapeño chicken, with two drinks. Returned home and started to dive in! WOW IT WAS AMAZING! The pork was cooked just right, the chicken was extremely delicious and chow mein was actual chow mein and not Top Ramen noodles substitute. my friend who ordered the mushroom chicken and vegetables couldn't stop eating. I've been to numerous fast Chinese food places and none of them have been as good as this place with the quality of food and the amount given. the price was moderate in today's society of price gouging it was $27 and well worth it. if you enjoy Chinese food and really want to get a bang for your buck as well as and enjoyment of flavors in your mouth go to China Gourmet!“

“The waitress was very friendly and helpful with selecting our dishes. We had chicken chow mein and shrimp chow mein and a side of spring rolls. The food was very flavorful and brought to the table nice and hot. I would definitely come back again.“

“Went here for lunch and they have a great deal for lunch special and good for 2 ppl. We ordered the fish pot and the fish was so fresh and tender. The roasted duck ChengDu style is my favorite! The service was great and we enjoyed dinning in.“

“Food is always good. Their fried shrimp is delicious. Their crab roll is the best. Their egg rolls are legit perfect. All their food is good but by far their best is the beef and broccoli. Highly recommend you to try their beef and broccoli. The brocoli is always perfect not soggy or overcooked. It always has the best vibrant green color.“

“Excellent food and great service. Family owned and my favorite local eatery. Please try it.“

“We ordered a ton of food, and every dish was seriously yummy! The staff hooked us up with some great recommendations too—the stir-fried beef was super tender, and the chow mein was packed with goodies. Loved it all! The mung bean soup? Perfect for beating the summer！ prices is friendly…“

“This place is amazing, their food is very affordable and tasty! I recommend their pineapple chicken if you are looking for something sweet and sour or if you are short on money, their fried rice is always great! The employees are very nice so don't feel intimidated to come in here at all, I assure you it will become one of your favorite places“

“I had a great experience at **Big Wok China Restaurant**. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. Everything we ordered tasted authentic and well prepared, from the perfectly seasoned fried rice to the delicious entrées that came out hot and full of flavor.

The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The service was quick, and the restaurant itself was clean and comfortable, which made the whole dining experience even better.

If you’re looking for tasty Chinese food with great service and good portions, Big Wok China Restaurant is definitely worth visiting. I’ll definitely be coming back again! 🥢🍜⭐“

“Tasty Goody in Norwalk is hands down the best Chinese food place this side of the Mississippi. I go there whenever I want some ? orange chicken, and it never disappoints. The portions are huge, and the prices are great for how much food you get. The orange chicken has the perfect amount of crunch and sauce, and the noodles are always fresh. I’ve tried a lot of places, but nothing really compares to Tasty Goody. Plus, the people there are super nice and quick with your order. Definitely my go-to spot for Chinese food.“

“Such a good experience !
I'm thankfull I got to meet that lady during my short trip in LA. Such a breath of fresh air and a lovely experience.
She is patient and welcoming and the food is great ! I mean, just enter the shop and you'll know you'll be eating good tonight.
The portions are huge for the price too. We did 1 serving for both me and my sister, it was perfect. ▶️ 15$ ! That's it !
If I lived here, this would be my go-to for sure.“

“The meat pies are flaky and soup-filled—eat carefully! Green onion pancakes are also solid. It’s a cozy room with simple service and quick turnover. Great spot when you want something comforting and a little different. Cash or card both fine on my last visit.“

“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.“

“Love their tofu skin dish.
Love their noddles, so original
The crispy pork is out of this world
Unlimited source and commentary are wonderfully satisfying
Can't speak more, try it yourself. I guarantee you have never tasted crispy pork like what they have. GUARANTEE!!!!“

“Great food and new location!“

“From the outside this looks like a hole in the wall place in a strip mall but inside it's huge and magical! We had a party of 200 people in there and there was still areas for other pattons.
Aside from most of the staff not speaking English to tell us what we were eating when it was brought out we figured it out and everything was uniquely different in its own way!
I usually take food pics but I didn't this time! P.S beer was only 5 bucks a bottle!“

“Employees are nice and food is decent. Huge portions and you can order a combination of white rice, fried rice, or chow mein. I personally like the mushroom chicken the most.

Don't come here right at open like I did. They only had about 1/3 of the dishes ready. I recommend coming in half an hour after opening.“

“Best place around my family has been going there for about 20 years“
