The type of local Chinese that every area should have. The food was super tasty and the portions were huge that we even took take away. The noodles with vegetables never go wrong and the orange chicken was amazing, not too sweet not too salty the perfect flavour to eat with plain rice . Very good service , amazing food and super cheap prices !
A fantastic spot for truly exceptional food at an even better price. Conveniently located right on the border of Chinatown, relatively close to multiple hotels. I ordered the Pepper Fried Calamari and the Orange Crispy Chicken. The Calamari was crispy and had amazing flavor, and the portion size was plenty to satisfy and was well worth the price. The Orange Crispy Chicken was simply wonderful, the perfect blend sweet and savory. I consider myself to be picky when it comes to orange chicken, and this blew me away. Not only was it great as far as flavor goes, but the serving was considerably more than I had anticipated (a welcomed surprise). The service was also great; I was promptly seated, my order taken and served. Overall I had a great experience, and will undoubtedly be back when I return to LA.
Came here late at night, about an hour before they closed. They served free hot tea with my meal. I got the Yang Chow fried rice, and it was as good as it was a large amount of food. I took home half of it as leftovers. Service was efficient, and the workers were all very kind. I will be coming back!
Had the Beef Mignon With Mushroom which was wonderful with great flavour. The Braised String Beans was ok and the beef chow fun was pretty good too.
A restaurant at the entrance to the Chinatown Gate. The service is quick and timely. We ordered our plates and received our meals in a timely manner. The whole meal is delicious. We filled our stomach to our hearts content. Highly Recommended for any lovers to Chinese Food.
Really friendly service, was very quick and the food was great. We got in around 11:50~ right before lunch rush and it was pretty quiet. When the lunch rush hit, it was still easy to talk and wasn't super loud. Definitely recommend trying this place out, I'm sure there's something you'll like!
Food tasted great. The service was quick and our food came out pretty fast. I only wish the Kung-Pao Chicken was cut in smaller pieces for easier bites.
It was a very good experience — minimalist, with excellent flavors, big portions, and fair prices. The service was very kind and welcoming! We love the experience to try the hot tea!! #depaseoysabor
