50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Walnut Park

“It's always crowded so I much prefer to order through the app and pick up, they are pretty fast with that and even make it before the time it says it will be ready. This location is pretty solid. I've only ever had one bad experience and that was a while ago. I keep coming back because they are good, fast and close. Just don't like dining in there because It's to many people but other than that great place“

“Everything about this dining experience was perfect. I've never had that before, where literally every box is checked...

Every single item we ordered blew our minds with how tasty they were. It was truly a one-of-a-kind experience.

We were traveling from Utah and were in that town accidentally. We wandered in to the closest restaurant nearby and were not at all prepared for how nice this was. Even though we were not looking our best from a long day on the road, we were treated kindly and even had nice conversation with the owner.

This is now on our must list EVERY time we come to California!“

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

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

“Had a yummy dinner with great service in a lovely setting. We love the hot and sour soup here and the lemon yuzu scallops are my absolute favorite! Love the beef rolls and the cauliflower dish too. Truffle xiao long bao are so fragrant and yummy! Everything is always delicious. The sticky rice drinks are so good too! One of my fav toppings anywhere! Always a delicious meal.“

“We had a great experience at P.F. Chang’s! The service was excellent, and our server was so kind, friendly, and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious, and every dish was full of flavor. The drinks were also amazing—perfectly made, not too strong, just right. There was no wait when we arrived, and we were in and out within about an hour without ever feeling rushed. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and we’ll definitely be coming back!“

“This restaurant has an extensive menu of northern Chinese, Sichuan dishes and Peking duck. Unlike other pecking duck restaurants, we did not have the call in advance to pre order the duck. We were a party of 2 and we tried the marinated cold jelly fish, the pecking duck and the stir fried morning glory (ong choi) with garlic. We found all these dishes delicious and of high quality. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was pleasant. The dining room is nicely decorated and noise level low.“

“We were pleasantly surprised and loved this little restaurant! We originally came to Chinatown to eat at the other famous place down the street from here, but there was a 2 hour wait there and we needed to eat and get going to the Dodger game! That’s when Google came to the rescue and we found Jade Wok!! We ordered fried rice, chow mein, spare ribs, kung-pow chicken, house beef and all were very delicious!! We are forever happy customers and will continue to come back! The owner and her son served us and were very attentive!“

“Every time I go to this restaurant, even when it's packed, the service is always excellent. Yangzhou Restaurant is almost always overflowing with diners, but honestly, the wait is worth it every single time. I also really enjoy looking at the celebrity photos hanging on the walls; they infuse the restaurant with the classic charm of an old-school Chinatown eatery“

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

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

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

“I definitely recommend the chocolate xiao long bao“

“I've been craving skewers and this place hit the spot!! We got their early around 6pm and there was no wait. Got seated right away.

We ordered the beef, lamb, and chicken skewers along w some buns, golden soup and topped it off with dessert durian pizza.
I couldnt give it a 5 stars for the food because I felt like the lamb skewers could have been better. There was a lot of fat and being that the skewers are very small, each bite should be meat of lamb not fat. But overall the food was good and it tempt my craving.

The price overall was high. I managed to rack the bill over $150 n that's just with 3 of us. So be prepared. 😄“

“We've been to this Phoenix Inn Chinese Cuisine for years. They've been changing the menu all these years, and we still miss their old fusion family dinner menu, including the egg rolls, sweet & sour pork, and egg drop soup. They also remodeled the place so it looks modern, and they still have some traditional stuff. Anyhow, their menu is now just like other Phoenix Cuisine with a lot of authentic Hong Kong food, and the taste was great. We ordered the crispy noodles with shredded pork, fried rice with seafood and chicken gravy, and fresh mango delight. They all tasted great and were reasonably priced, and had big portions. The service was attentive, and the servers were friendly.“

“Busy on the weekends and mornings so recommend coming here on a weekday. We came here during Wednesday for dinner and did not have to wait. They were out of the chicken rice but had everything else. You order at the front and then get a seat. They don’t do reservations so best to come with a small group of 2-3. Highlights on the menu for us we’re the French Toast and Pork Belly Rice. The French Toast was sweet with a crispy outside and fluffy inside. Overall, great place with good prices and would come back!“

“everything is delicious and fresh 😋“

“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 .“

“This is absolutely our favorite go to restaurant whenever we visit LA. A must stop for us. Living in CA and then moving to MN, we always crave for the noodles here. We visit every 2-4 years and the soups and noodles have always been consistent. The flavors are truly astonishing! We took my parents to visit last week again, and we stopped there 3X! A few days later back at home in MN and we are craving the soups already! Would definitely recommend this place.“

“The best Chinese food I had in a long long time. We have been with six, sharing different dishes - a blast. Share the soup! Highly recommended.Thanks for reading my comment. Now, if you are curious enough about my "rating scheme", here's "the moment of truth. I am a music photographer who has traveled the world with the world's greatest musical talents (Michael Jackson, AC/DC, Rolling Stones, and Rammstein, to name a few) for almost 40 years. When being asked "Where do you live" I tended to ask "in hotels". At my peak, I "shot" 250 shows a year. Will say: been there, saw and tasted it, and a lot, as I may say, and much to the dismay of my doctor who is in my back to lose a few pounds. Quite a few, as I may add, which is why my wife and I walk ten thousand steps per day, where- and whenever we can - and explore a lot of new exciting places - places you may oversee when just driving by. While I love to share my experience with others, I am sometimes shocked at how people use their "power of the word" to down-rate amazing places because of minor incidents (in my all-time favorite​ restaurant Le Petit Four on Sunset Plaza the owner was even called a racist as he refused to toast the (free) bread in his packed restaurant - they simply do not offer toasted bread, as no French​ place does, as I may add). Or I just read "Chicken piccata so over-salted I hope the dog enjoys the leftovers tomorrow, I brought home most of the dish." Did they speak to their service? How could the restaurant learn that something was wrong when patrons even have their leftovers​ boxed to take home? As a dog owner,​ I want to take the writer and shake him or her really bad and say "You give over-salted food to your dog? Anyone with a bit of brain understands this is a horrible idea...​ I hope you agree.So If I had a say on this portal, I would offer just to see the ratings of my friends. So I would see what the ratings were by like-minded people. Sadly, I have no say. I try not to compare apples with oranges. A place like this does not correspond to "The Ritz". At first,​ I assume that a restaurant is clean, they do not greet you with a gun - and they deliver whatever they promise. I do not give stars for things that are expected. In my rating scheme, three or more stars are awarded if they actually exceed my expectations. Four, if I am sure I will come back. To achieve five stars, I must be willing to take a detour of thirty minutes or more to go again. Thank you for reading this.“

“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.“

“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'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!“

“The best Vietnamese Style Lobster and seafood! Always a long queue to be seated. Get here early for best parking and best seating.“

“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.“

“I really enjoyed this restaurant.
We ordered the classic potato noodles spicy brown sugar rice cake, deep fried pork belly , and a variety of different skewers to try ( mushroom , lobster balls , sausage) Everything was so good. The staff here are all friendly and the food came out so quickly after we placed our order . This restaurant is super underrated!!! I highly recommend“

“I love their Porridge with pork and century egg/duck“

“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!“

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

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

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

“I've been coming to this place for a very long time and never took the time to give them a review. The food is very good, it is cooked to order and it comes out quickly & hot. Their portions a very generous with very fair prices. The service is always wonderful and friendly. I highly recommend to check them out. Lunch specials are great also!“

“Just tried Guilin rice noodles for the first time and I’m absolutely obsessed! The broth is incredibly fragrant and soul-warming, with a subtle spicy and savory depth that keeps you wanting more. The rice noodles themselves are silky-smooth and have the perfect chewy texture. Topped with crispy pork, peanuts, fresh herbs, and a hint of pickled vegetables—each bite is a beautiful balance of flavors and textures.
It’s not just a meal, it’s an experience. Whether you’re a foodie or just looking for something comforting and delicious, Guilin rice noodles will not disappoint. Highly recommend giving it a try!“

“I would come here for drinks instead of the food. Beautiful interior, great ambience, amazing staff but the food was meh. I wasn't expecting it to be great but I could get better honey walnut shrimp at Panda Express. Soup dumplings were fine too but not mind blowing. I would still totally come back just to hangout, it's so cool in there.“

“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 ordered their new Spicy Orange Chicken Fries and they were good. Good flavor and good portions. Not too spicy for me so I asked for extra chili oil. I also ordered their house special chow mein XTRA spicy and this definitely was spicy. Both dishes were good in flavor for the price. The only bad is the wait time for the dishes. Since they're popular now, expect to wait 30-60 minutes so order ahead!“

“This place is a gem, tucked away 6 walking minutes from the Pantages. If you're a true dumpling, shumai and long bao fan, your taste buds need not walk any further. The explosion of flavors will make you want to come back. Make sure you also try the Lychee Lemonade, the scallion pancakes and the tomato and egg noodles. An A+ all around!“

“**Authentic Shanghai flavors are surprisingly hard to find in Southern California, but this is one restaurant I keep coming back to. Since its days at Fullerton Plaza, it has built a loyal following, and even after relocating to Rowland Heights, the quality and flavors remain as good as ever.**

This visit was all about classic Shanghai dishes, and every one of them delivered.

The **pork soup dumplings (xiaolongbao)** are a must-order. Served piping hot, the wrappers are thin yet resilient enough to hold the rich broth inside. Take a small bite, sip the flavorful soup, then enjoy the tender pork filling—absolutely satisfying. The true test of a great xiaolongbao is the soup, and this place has maintained remarkable consistency for over a decade.

First-time visitors should not miss the restaurant’s signature **giant crab roe soup dumpling**. About the size of your palm, it makes quite an impression when it arrives at the table. A straw is provided so you can first savor the abundant crab-infused broth before enjoying the delicate wrapper and filling. Rich, savory, and interactive, it's both delicious and fun.

The **Yulan fried rice cake** is a classic Shanghai snack. Its glutinous rice exterior is fried to a beautiful golden crisp while remaining pleasantly chewy inside. Filled with juicy seasoned pork, it strikes a wonderful balance between sweet and savory flavors. The more you chew, the more its distinctive aroma unfolds—a nostalgic taste of old Shanghai.

The **Wuxi-style spare ribs** were another highlight. Slow-braised until incredibly tender, the meat falls off the bone with ease. The sweet-savory sauce fully penetrates the ribs, creating the signature Jiangnan flavor that keeps you reaching for another piece.

The **stuffed gluten puffs with pork** brought back childhood memories. The gluten absorbs the savory braising sauce, becoming soft and springy, while the hearty pork filling inside adds satisfying texture and flavor. Every bite feels comforting and familiar.

The **shepherd’s purse dumplings** have remained consistently excellent over the years. The shepherd’s purse is fragrant and fresh, paired with just the right amount of pork filling. Flavorful yet never greasy, it’s the kind of comforting homemade dish that never disappoints.

To finish, we ordered a bowl of **sweet rice wine soup with glutinous rice balls**. The fermented rice aroma is delicate and balanced, while the rice balls are soft and chewy without being overly sweet.

Keeping a restaurant open for more than a decade is no easy feat. What’s even more impressive is its commitment to preserving the familiar flavors of Shanghai all these years later. From soup dumplings to traditional Shanghainese specialties, from Yulan cakes to shepherd’s purse dumplings, every dish reflects genuine care and craftsmanship.

For many longtime customers, this restaurant is more than just a place to eat—it’s a taste of home and a connection to cherished memories. The address may have changed, but the Shanghai flavor that people have loved for over ten years remains exactly the same.“

“This place is a hidden gem and a longtime staple of Inglewood. As the neighborhood continues to change and become more gentrified, it still stands as classic that the local community genuinely loves. I’m really glad it’s still here and honestly hope it never leaves—people would be devastated if it did.

The food is amazing for locals who want a balance: lots of vegetables with just the right hint of fried and sweet flavors. Everything is hot, ready, and right in front of you. When ordering, it’s a little difficult to tell them what you want because eye sight is blocked by supplies, you have to point at what you want through the glass, and talk loud, the staff is older, but they’ve been doing this for a very long time. They are always generous so they should understand what you want. One plate is easily enough to feed two people. I can never finish a full plate myself and usually end up getting small boxes for everything. Prices are great, and contactless payment is available.

The vibe is small, quiet, and low-key. Seating is limited, with a couple of small tables and one table for four, which adds to the charm. It really does feel like a neighborhood spot rather than a tourist stop—Google Maps usually pushes Randy’s Donuts first, and honestly, we kind of want to keep it that way. People avoid it because they see “Donuts” and that’s how we like it.

I’ve been coming here for years. I remember when they had the donut side, which is gone now. I even brought my first girlfriend here, and I still come back every few months.

Whenever someone tells me they are coming to Inglewood, I always recommend three places: Randy’s Chinese Food, Bravo’s breakfast, and Tumby’s pizza. These places have been around forever, and they’re a big part of what makes Inglewood feel like home.“

“Chowking (131 W Carson St, Carson, CA 90745) never disappoints! The Beef Wonton Noodles are flavorful and comforting, perfect for satisfying any craving. The Sago’t Gulaman and Naicha Milk Tea are refreshing and perfectly balanced in sweetness. Their Halo-Halo is a must-try — creamy, colorful, and filled with all the classic Filipino ingredients. And the Taho is just like home — warm, soft, and sweetly nostalgic.

Overall, great food, friendly service, and a clean, inviting atmosphere. Definitely a 5-star experience for anyone craving authentic Filipino-Chinese comfort food!“

“Delish! Been coming here for years!“

“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". :-)“

“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.“

“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.“

“I’ve been coming to Savoy Kitchen for a long time, and it’s still one of my go-to spots in the area. We ordered a spread of classics during our last visit, and while the food is still generally good, a few things felt a bit different this time around.

​The Hainan Chicken Rice is what put them on the map. The chicken itself remains incredibly tender and juicy, and the trio of sauces still hits the spot. However, the chicken-to-rice ratio was definitely off on this visit—there was a mountain of rice but a pretty small portion of chicken. More importantly, the rice lacked that incredibly rich, savory chicken broth flavor that used to make Savoy stand out from every other spot. It tasted a bit more muted than before.

​Luckily, the other dishes we tried held up their end of the bargain:

​The Bread: Served fresh and nicely seasoned, though it was on the denser side rather than being light and airy. Still good for snacking on or soaking up extra sauce, just heavier than expected.

​Chicken Pasta: A comforting, simple dish with plenty of tender chicken strips tossed in a light, savory broth.

​BBQ Chicken Pizza: Generously topped with thick slices of chicken, red onions, and plenty of melted cheese.

​Savoy is still a classic, and the meal overall was satisfying. I just really hope they bring back that signature richness to the chicken rice and balance out the portions again!“

“Good service and yummy food 😋😋“

“Lee’s Barbecue is so good! The chow mein is very flavorful, but not salty, and everything tastes super fresh! From the meats to the veggies. Even the boba is bomb. Good prices and really friendly staff. Definitely one of the best spots! You guys have to try it!!“

“All the food is cooked fresh. The veggie soup had a light, classic flavor that I know and love. The family style bean curd/tofu had a nice flavor and texture. Rice is included and there is chili sauce and chili oil to spice up your food. The service was good, the lady there is so nice and stays busy.“

“I'm so glad we tried this place on our trip. The lunch special was very reasonable and the servings were generous. I'm convinced we could have closed our eyes and pointed at the menu. No wrong choices here. The orange beef was something special.“

“Fresh snakehead fish 𓆜 paired with tender frog legs 🐸, simmered in a flavorful spicy broth.

The restaurant’s signature secret dipping sauce 🫕 is the real game changer — packed with numbing, spicy, savory, and aromatic flavors that take every bite to the next level. 🤤🌶

The Sorrowful Jelly Noodles (Shangxin Liangfen) 🍜 were also delicious — refreshing, spicy, and incredibly addictive! 🔥✨“
