This place has amazing tasting food. I ordered the kung pao chicken, jalapeño chicken, steamed rice, and chowmein. I got a 1 item combo but he let me pick two. I think its because they were closing for the day but that was so nice of him! The actual place isn't too inviting but I really don't mind that factor, as long as they have good food! And they really filled up my plate, definitely worth it!!

If you like to be disappointed. Then come here. I love everything about the won ton soup. You look at the picture on the menu and what you get is all wrong. Since when is the pork, chicken, beef, shrimp breaded in the soup? Unheard of. Spoke to the cook and person behind the counter who apparently are both blind cause they insist the food bought matches the picture on the menu. Orange chicken not crispy and lacks flavor. Beef and broccoli should be called rubber and broccoli. There are other china wok express that are off the chart. This place is not the one. Do not waste your money here.

Food is amazing, affordable, Good portions. Fast service. There is a special sauce they offer that I highly recommend. The teriyaki chicken was a highlight

Love the Chinese food here ! I dont live in the city but will gladly make a stop here for quick bite ! The person who serves me is a man (not sure if he's the owner) who is usually very friendly and welcoming

This place provides the nearby Panda Express with some stiff competition. I ordered the Chow Mein, Fried Rice, Orange Chicken, and Chicken Eggroll. While the price was a tad bit higher than the Panda equivalent, the entrees are larger, so much in fact the staff filled the plate until it can barely close! That's what I call good customer service. If your taste is conservative then this place is a godsend, otherwise the limited entree variety is room for improvement.

Great portions and fair price. Got the combo 2 items for 7.50. Was not a fan of the orange chicken but the chow mein and teriyaki chicken were delicious.

I've been going to this place since I was a little kid. Place hasent changed since. Offer great portions at reasonable prices. Food is great but not something I would eat all the time because of the high cholesterol. Unhealthy but delicious

The portion of the soup is so big and cheap. Flavorful. 👍 👍 the spicy food though lack meet and has lots of veggies instead

Portions are enormous. I tried BBQ pork and teriyaki chicken, they are 7 on a 1 to 10 scale, having panda express teriyaki and BBQ at 10. I normally eat everything on a two item, rice and Chow mein plate, this time I could not. It's ok for price and quantity.

The food is great but I’m giving it 3 stars because literally there’s a long line and only one worker serving and charging customers. I’m starving and this is unacceptable!

Not what I had expected. Tried and unfortunately for us it was a total miss. My husband got the fried rice and orange chicken, it was just ok I wanted mushroom chicken, but it looked sad, dry and old . So I ordered fresh, got the Special Delight. It had breaded shrimp in the sauce, made it soggy. Maybe we were here too late, it was around 7pm, told we couldn't eat there because they were going to start cleaning. They close at 830pm . The price and amount of food in each meal is good, however the taste is a miss for us. We have Ben's close to us, but decided to try a new place, it was a mistake. The girl kept saying we clean for 1 hour, gesturing even up the ceiling, that they clean everything, so we couldn't eat there, to go only. The girl even asked for a tip of $1, for togo.

Wanted to try a new place. I was kinda skeptical at first since it has a B rating. 😳 The rice was was good. Chow main was okay. My BF liked the orange chicken. I liked the veggies. Not sure if we will return. The server/cashier was not attentive. She didn't hear when I said combination 3. 😩 Probably because she was using her airpods.

Beef broccoli was not good got $8 combo 2 comes with no drink. Other places are better some of the chicken looked bad chow mein and spicy chicken is ok. My stomach huuuuurts though.

This place sucks. Just got back with the food, the orange chicken is mushy with more salty flavor. It sucked. The BBQ chicken is dry, the fried rice is flavorless, and the serving sizes are small as can be. DO NOT GO HERE.

i ordered chicken noodle soup they literally put chow mein in broth. gross

I go here all the time the food is good and all but the last time i went i found a piece of sponge in my vegetables, and while i was ordering i saw a hair in the spicy chicken.

Was going to try this place but the reviews were right. The food even the fresh one was old looking. Not tasty looking at all. The lady also looked mean spirited and said while I was in line "only to go! Not for here! Only to go!" That said all I needed to know. Try it for yourself you may have different luck but nah this place ain't it.

I love the food here so much but every time i get the lady to serve me she’s always so rude and tries rushing me to order or days she can’t give us some sauces that they always give us

This place is trash don't be fooled by the other reviews no taste was so ever! Way over priced for sure. Only thing that had flavor was the rice everything else was garbage.chicken was dry and hard as if it was old just go some where else

Been here twice and thought it was not too bad until today when I was cheated. I ordered Kung pao chicken and got one third chicken and two thirds jalapeños. I guess that’s it, never going back there and not recommending them to anybody. Stay away from cheaters.

The beef and broccoli was rancid. I spit it out. The orange chicken was grossly overcooked, more of a crunchy chicken flavored shell then meat. I've never left a bad review before, but that was actually terrible

The service was really rude the lady that served us was really mean I feel she didn’t want to work there the floor is dirty and the tables are really uncomfortable my kids were talking and she came and shut up my kids she really mean

Food was not good. Other locations are better

The lady is very rude. The food sucks. I dont recommend this place. Go to Panda Express across the street.

Chowmein and rice was undercooked, pepper chicken was hard and didn’t even taste like chicken. Plot twist: it was rat. Teriyaki chicken was ok but they don’t serve the teriyaki sauce on the side. Not hard to do.

There was a worker there who doesn't know how to interact with customers and is very disrespectful. I ordered a plate that has no meat in it. She asked me if I was vegetarian, and I said I was. She told me I shouldn't do that and explained to me why. I am a CUSTOMER, not her friend. She has no right to tell me that. Absolute trash place and never going back

The food was terrible. I had black pepper chicken and the meat did not look like chicken. I did not see a customer during lunch time and I wonder how they can stay in business.

I felt rushed the lady was kind of rude and served me little to no meat got more noodles than anything else, the egg rolls were stail must've been out all day.

Bellflower locals, Don’t come here any more. It’s not the same owner, food sucks now, the plates are skimpy and the new lady serving food straight acts like she don’t want to be there. I miss the lady that was here before her. New owner killed this place straight up. Take this from someone that was a regular. Many times a month. It’s sad that this place is lost now.

I used to love coming to this place but now I dread it every time I see this rude Chinese lady. She doesn’t greet you and rushes to order ! She doesn’t say hi , the first thing she said was “what do u want” and then rushes you so fast! Barely fills up the plates and when I paid she doesn’t even say the total amount she just points at it and doesn’t say a word the whole time. So rude. If she’s so miserable working there she should do us all a favor and leave ! Do better !!

I purchased chicken fried rice and the chicken was stale as if it was sitting there for hours and hours. So i went back to this location and the Hispanic woman working there was touching the chicken and said that there was nothing wrong with it. The chicken in the fried rice should be tender not crunchy. They did replace my dinner for something else but still not cool. One reason i will never go back there and i do not recomend this place to anyone.

The minute I stepped into the restaurant, This lady did not try to say hi or even greet me. She doesn’t put the portions of the food equally and always looks mad. I’ll return when she gets fired.

I been going to the establishment for over 10 years. I believe that there has been about three different owners. I recently moved from Bellflower but stop by once in a while. The lady who serves is beyond rude, and has a nasty attitude even to give my receipt. Was a problem. I have to definitely look for a place near where I live now.

The food is good. Now that they got a new severe some Chinese lady that is rude and demanding a tip, when she over fills the plate with noodles and rice so she can give you less protein. Before they had servers that would give you equal amount of protein and noodles/rice. The old food servers would listen to your order and served you the way you asked. This new Chinese lady forces you to say the items so she can serve you more of the cheaper item first and less of the more expensive item like their BBQ pork. The fact that she demands a tip and gives such poor service. Is forcing me to look for a new place to take my money.

Yesterday I went to this place and the food was great but the lady serving right now is extremely disrespectful and rude. She gets super irritated if I do not say my order fast enough, she will demand me to hurry up and rush me. She also does not talk to you at all, she looks extremely mad all the time when she is doing her job. I do not see myself continuing coming until she leaves.

New to this place came all the way from west L.A. was passing through and didn't know if it was any good so I asked if I can get a sample and the lady gave me a stink face and just knoded no. So I still wanted to buy a drink and they don't accept debit unless you spend more than $5....the one chiken egg roll i ended buying by force in order to be able to get my drink was cold and tasted bad.

The other day I went to this restraunt and the service was very horrible. The lady did not put the portions of the food equally. Everytime I go inside the restraunt, she does not greet you at all. Very unprofesional and doesnt even say the total of your food or a goodbye. Always looks pissed off

8/27/2025 Must have new owners or something. FOOD WAS HORRIBLE TODAY. Chowmein & rice tasted Bland fishy & Nasty, Beef w/Broccoli tasted Nasty had fat on the beef. The Orange Chicken was Stringy . Made me wonder was it was really chicken or something else. You know what I mean!!! I have been going to this place for years. It will be a long time if I ever go back. Uuugh!!! YUK YUK!! 🤮🤮🤮.

I had been coming to this place for about 22 years and I had been very happy with this place in the past. They had changed owners a few times, but I just went in two days ago and was totally disappointed with the most recent new owners. The lady that served me was kind of rude and made me feel rushed to order. I ordered broccoli beef and got only four or five little pieces of beef and about 10 pieces of giant broccoli. I always always order barbecue pork and got a good serving before, but this time I only got four pieces of pork and still got charged an extra dollar for the upgrade. The recipe and flavor on all the items are totally different from before, and not tasty at all. The amount of food is very skimpy and the quality of the food is very undesirable. Needless to say I will never come back to this place again.

I’m giving a one star on everything. First off the lady serving is incredibly RUDE! We came here to try it out for the first time and it’ll be our last! The food looked like it was sitting there for a while (chow main, broccoli) i said I’d wait for fresh food she said no i had to get that. The lady said it’ll take long! Maybe 15-20 min. I said I’d wait. She walked away and came back and she said, no it take too long 45 min to an hour! For broccoli?….I felt like she kept avoiding me getting some of the new batch. If i could give zero stars i would! Anyway, I Do not recommend this place at all! I will go to panda across the street next time. Truly disappointed!
