Kaleyard Laguna Niguel Reviews
The best local Chinese food. This has been a staple in our house since we moved here 8+ years ago. Everything is great. We love the wonton soup. The Singapore noodles are fantastic. Delicious chicken egg rolls. Chow mein, yum! I've never had a bad meal here. We usually get delivery and it is delivered HOT! We've also eaten there, service was great and again food was tasty.

Unexpected great food, very unassuming place. They don’t serve alcohol, but we got a beer at Ambers to go and enjoyed it with our meal. They didn’t have music playing but since we were the only ones there at the time, we played our own. Hot and sour soup and Szechuan Beef were 👌👌👌
Our family had a wonderful meal delivered. You know the saying, "Goodness comes from the Heart." If you're feeling down, eat kaleyards delicious food. It will lift your spirits and satiate you your taste buds.
Love this place! Hands down the best place around with the best food and service! We asked them to make us scallion pancakes with ginger sauce n the next visit it was on the menu! And absolutely delicious! During covid when they couldn’t have dine in the put up a ping pong table to play while u waited for your food! It was so fun! My only complaint is that they bring back the ping pong table!!!🏓🥡🥢🥠
Now be patient, they may be short staffed. However the love that’s in the food makes up for it. The food is beautiful and the taste is mouthwateringly flavorful. Delicious and the price is amazing for the what was brought to our table.Thank you Ellina.
Ever since our family discovered this gem of a restaurant we now enjoy dining here every Saturday night. The walnut shrimp dish is heavenly and all their food is incredibly delicious. We HIGHLY recommend Kale Yard!!!
I’ve eaten here for over 7 years and just now leaving a review and it’s long overdue! This place is my absolute favorite for local delivery Chinese food. Love this place and literally haven’t had anything bad on the menu. Wonton soup is my favorite along with the moo shu house special. Cheers!
I first discovered Kaleyard 20 years ago when I first moved down here to Dana Point, they were the" hidden gem, just down from Carlos on PCH. I was so sad they relocated to Laguna Niguel, but that doesn't change the fact, they are still unattainable in their authentic food. You can't rush perfection ✨ ❤, I just wanted to let others know it's worth the time effort and best part greatness.
A true hole in the wall in a strip mall that is also kind of hidden! The food is good and the lady is nice. Must try...then you get hooked.
Best Chinese food, always consistent. I have been going here for at least 14 years and I have never had a bad experience.
The food is really good. My family and I didn't wait a long time for the food. Great service!!
Some of the best Chinese food we have ever had. This place is a "hidden gem".
Delicious, healthy, well-priced! Best Chinese food around

Great Chinese food, and they deliver locally!

Very bummed out with everything! Disgusting and a waste of $80 bucks. I was actually afraid keep eating it because it looks questionable in quality. I sadly had to throw it out. I was really craving Chop Suey and Egg Foo Young for New Year’s because it reminded me of my dad. We used to eat Chinese food together, and I thought it would be a nice way to honor those memories. Unfortunately, this experience was a huge letdown. The Egg Foo Young was more like scrambled eggs and a watery soy sauce and the Chop Suey barely had any vegetables—and the ones that were there were old, soggy, and brown. The brown sauce tasted like nothing more than soy sauce and salt, which wasn’t appetizing at all. To make matters worse, I found hard pieces in the food that almost broke my tooth. The spring rolls arrived soggy but were okay after baking them to crisp them up. Overall, the quality didn’t match the $80 I spent. It left me wondering if this restaurant is going out of business because the care and quality just weren’t there. Next time, I’ll stick with China Moon or Asian Kitchen in Laguna Niguel, they’ve never disappointed me. This is the Response from the owner 38 minutes ago lol We didn’t sell any house special egg foo Young today ( New Year Eve). My DoorDash says I paid for chicken egg foo young. You should be ashamed of yourself for lying. See the receipt and all the money I side on your disgusting food and customer service.

I don't know what happened. 4.6 stars, this place seemed like a good gamble. Unfortunately it was not. I was excited and ordered $80+ of things and nothing was good except for the vegetable egg rolls - they were ok. But the orange chicken was re-heated i think or overly cooked, the kung pao beef was one of the worst I've ever tasted and that's usually my go-to, then we tried the chicken with Chinese peas and it literally tasted like it was sitting on gravy. The wonton w/ creamcheese was the weirdest shape I've ever seen and they were very stale too. This place was completely empty when we arrived and the Mexican restaurant next door was booming, so I should have went with my gut. I wanted to call the next day and ask for a refund, but I know that was a headache I didn't want to go through.
had to change my review. we ordered lunch specials for take-out last week over the phone. we were told 20 minutes and our order would be ready. we arrived 25 minutes later to find the temp. in the restaurant a disgusting 90°. we waited another 10 minutes for our food. the food was eaten and a few hours later, the 2 folks that ordered chicken dishes were violently sick from food poisoning. we will not be back. too bad because this place used to be great!
Went in for our final time, was completely ignored during lunch hour. We we're the only ones in there and we had to yell to the back of the kitchen to ask if they were even open. It was noon and a guy shuffled out grumpy and took our drink order and never returned. So we walked out.
Terrible food really greasy just go a couple miles to china moon.
