Little Lan's is my go to for Chinese delivery in the area. The food is delicious and I have not been disappointed. The only problem is when you order extra food with the intent of saving some for leftovers, it is very hard to stop eating.

They advertised that you could get take out food on Christmas between 4-8. I got there at 5 pm. They said they were not taking any orders. I planned on having Chinese food for dinner. I was out of town and I had no food in my kitchen. I would have planned something else if I had know they were closed. They screwed up my holiday and left me hungry. The owner was rude and wouldn’t help or speak to me. He doesn’t understand that his actions can affect others in very bad ways. He just doesn’t care. Never again.

Overall solid. Only issue I ran into is when asked for mild food we got extra spicy. Great options overall and an easy error to fix.

1st time eating here. ordered their sizzling rice soup and it was absolutely incredible. We also asked Jeffrey to put together a dish that was not on the menu, as we were craving it so much, and he went out of his way to make it specially for us. It was the best version of the dish that we ever tried. (We asked for spicy shredded pork with bamboo shoots and it’s not on their menu). Thank you Jeffrey and Little Lan’s. We found our new fav spot!!! Incredible!!

Little Lan's is a little gem in the area. Their food is consistently good and the kitchen has been able to make accommodations upon request. Their staff is friendly and remembers customers' names and their regular, go-to order, if they have one, after only a few visits. Little Lan's really has a friendly, homey neighborhood restaurant kind of vibe. They have been around for 1992 for a reason – or rather, many good reasons.I have had their Potstickers, Mongolian Beef, Stir-fried Pork with Vegetables, and Shrimp with Asparagus and Peapod, and am looking forward to exploring other dishes on their menu. My friend especially likes their Hot and Sour Soup. I have zero complaints and highly recommend Little Lan's if you are in the area and looking for good Chinese food.

Best Chinese food in the northshore

I love this restaurant, it has the freshest Chinese food you have ever tried, hands down nobody has fresher food and ther fried rice is probably the best in the country. I love shrimp fried rice I have it with every meal sometimes I order it large and make it a meal, I am grateful for Little Lan's.

Their prices are misleading on the website. Make sure to double check the price. Got charged 25% more than what's on the actual website. The employee/owner had a hard time admiting he was wrong and that the website needed to be updated .

Their noodles are 100% SPAGHETTI boiled in baking soda. The texture is off and it’s obvious they are using this new cheap “hack” to save costs.They were also very sketchy and tried to sneak in an extra order of rice when my husband specifically asked them not to. They didn’t give us our receipt so we had to ask for it to see why the cost seemed so high and get them to fix it. Also, there is no saving ordering directly from them or off Uber Eats so don’t bother.The inside of the restaurant was also quite dirty and the floor was sticky.Okay for UberEats in a pinch, but avoid their noodles and be wary of their dishonest practices.

Wow this was bad. Just received a delivery order and am so disappointed. The fried rice is a mushy mess of soft rice, boiled pork, and way too much egg added in. The whole texture is like scrambled eggs, not sure what was fried. The pan noodle is more boiled pork and spaghetti noodles. I am assuming the orange chicken sauce was made from orange juice, it was thin and acidic. Crab Rangoon was fried a few times too many but the filling was decent. And the Szechuan beef was decent but salty. Overall, a waste of $90, and I'm not happy to leave such a bad review for a local business, but this was exceptionally terrible.

I’m sad to post about a local restaurant but the food was terrible. I’ve never had Chinese food with so little flavor. We ordered 4 dishes and 3 (moo shoo, egg fu young, miso soup) were not good, flavorless. The pork dumplings my daughter said were good. I didn’t even save left overs as the food was that bad. $50+ dollars down the drain.
