    2 Entrees and 1 Side Lunch Special Combo
    Austin K.

    Food here is really well priced for the portions you get. Sweet and sour pork and pepper steak with chow mien is what's pictured. All for $12.12. Pretty solid. The service is always nice but it's definitely a take out place. I wouldn't really eat inside. The whole strip area isn't really vibing like that.

    Chicken Fried Rice
    Pedro E.

    This is how is chicken fried rice looks like. Not taste, no chicken just a few. It's just rice with vegetables. Horrible taste.

    23. Sweet and Sour Chicken 26. Mushroom Chicken Chow Mein Steamed Rice
    Julia M.

    The food was pretty yummy here, just your average Chinese fast food nothing special. The prices are super cheap and they LOAD your plate up.

    31. Sesame Chicken and 28. Orange Chicken

    To be honest its not the best If you are hungry then it would kinda good The flavor are not the best at all the rice taste funny and as well the chow mein Just not good But the customer service is good

    Hot and sour soup lacks flavor, not standard ingredients
    Michelle L.

    Ordered Hot and sour soup and egg rolls. Neither of them are standard like most Asian places and unfortunately very disappointing. The hot and sour soup lacks flavor as well as many of the basic ingredients your typical hot and sour soup has. It has many things that a wonton soup would have like zucchini, mushroom, and bok choy and wonton type shrimp? Very clear liquid very plain. The egg rolls are HUGE but because they are so oily it was gross. They are like little burrito sized drenched in oil, each bite of cabbage was drenched in oil, 0 out of 10. Very disappointing in quality of food as well as waste of money.

    Food was great and fresh, this was my first time. I'll definitely be back. Affordable and took 10'min!

    Combo chow mein, orange Chicken, and sweet and Sour Pork
    Graciela S.

    I ordered from this place via Delivery. The 4 stars is for overall quality of food. Below are my personal opinions of the items I purchased Combo plate with Chow Mein, Orange Chicken, and Sweet and Sour Pork & an order of egg rolls. Pros: The food arrived quick & hot. The portions are huge and enough to share or have left overs. My favorite was the orange chicken. I thought it tasted yummy without being too sweet. The food overall wasn't super greasy. The egg rolls are huge! Like really big. There is no meat in them, which I don't mind. They arrive super hot and still very crispy and flavorful. Cons: I wasn't a huge fan of the sweet and sour pork. I found it a bit bland and it was a bit chewy for my taste. I wouldn't order it again. The chow mein was overall good, but it lacked in flavor. Nothing a little soy sauce can't fix. I really enjoyed the egg roll, but thought there was way too much filling. I think if there was some kind of protein it might help break up all the cabbage. I would have liked to have the option to choose two different sides on the app. But that's a minor inconvenience. Overall, I would definitely order from here again. I would probably not order the sweet and sour pork again. But will definitely try other entree options.

    Orange chicken and white rice

    The orange chicken is nasty it don't take like orange chicken it was hard and the rice was dry, I asked for a refund and they didn't refund me the money they are rude and charge for every sauce u ask for in the restaurant it don't say anything about them not refunding your money simply rude I DONT NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL!! Horrible customer service and the cashier has her daughter about 4 years old in the workplace unprofessional

    I 2 Entrees and 1 Side Lunch Special Combo Half and Half

    I specifically ordered 2 item combo, came out to $13.22 to be exact, orange chicken and beef and broccoli were my specified items, this picture clearly shows the order is completely wrong, and I asked for more chow main than rice, looks half and half to me, and the guy repeated the order back to me, like WTF. Like HOW, how did this happen, I definitely need answers

    25. Kung Pao Chicken

    This place was such a pleasant surprise. From the outside, it looks pretty unassuming, but once you…read morestep inside, it's actually incredibly cute and has a warm, inviting atmosphere. One of the highlights is their Thai tea, which is served with a popsicle and seems to be one of their most popular items for good reason. It's fun, unique, and absolutely delicious. I also tried the salmon curry, which was something new for me, and I ended up loving it. The flavors were rich, balanced, and unlike anything I've ordered before. Another unexpected favorite was the wings. I'm usually not a big wings person, but these were surprisingly good--crispy, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering.

Kin was one of the only restaurants open until 10 PM. We were seated right away, and somehow the five of us sat in a private room. It was kind of late for me to eat anything really heavy so I just have my usual salad and it was the beef tenderloin salad. They serve it up with a lot of beef and less veggies. The beef itself was a little chewy and in large pieces. I prefer the meat to be cut a little smaller and would like more lettuce and cucumber. I got a little taste of the spicy fried rice, which was really good. Some of us ordered Thai tea and didn't expect what we received, which was the tea with a Thai tea popsicle. What a treat! The Thai tea itself was pretty standard, but that popsicle was like the icing on a cake. The places, modern and clean. Staff is helpful and nice. Parking is their own lot but can be difficult to get a spot on a busy day or night.

Everything was pretty good with my standouts being the hand-pulled noodles and the tofu & shiitake mushroom entree. You could tell the hand-pulled noodles were fresh and made by hand. The sauce on it was good but too salty. The tofu & shiitake dish was served in a savory and tasty home/brown sauce. The scallion pancake was good as well, just much thinner than other scallion pancakes. The Chinese broccoli was good, but I thought it was more bitter than usual Chinese broccoli dishes. The fried rice was okay.

DTF has more variety, but this feels like a more focused, smaller menu that still delivers on quality. If they ever add chocolate xiaolongbao, it would honestly make this place perfect.

She did not let me down as we walked in and noticed how truly authentic it was going to look. Chinese decor on the walls and boxes of restaurant supples in the corners. Just as it should be. The bonus was that they had a TV showing the NBA Finals when we arrived. Pretty nice touch and in the back of the restaurant so as not to distract everyone. We went with a couple of our favorite dishes to run along and the Chicken Lo Mein was pretty good. Crispy pieces of chicken and soft noodles and veggies to go with it. We chose to get Mongolian Beef and it was absolutely fantastic. Crispy celery, green onions and decent sized pieces of meat in a terrific sauce. I would love to try to replicate that. My wife wanted a shrimp dish so she ordered the honey walnut and it even looked good to me when they brought it. She loves egg rolls, so she got a four piece and said they were pretty good.

I dont know what they season or flavor it with, but every fork full of rice that i ate, it was this sense of flavor that reminded me of butter or something else. I really loved the sensation i experienced from this particular dish. I am really curious on what it actually is.

I lunched with a friend and shared two things: -moo shu chicken ($13.95) -salt & pepper tofu ($13.95) I've never had moo shu anything before and I am now a moo shu fan 4ever. Apparently the version here come pre-wrapped, but I didn't mind since I was a first timer. The wrapper functions a lot like a tortilla, but much more delicate. I like the mixture of chicken, wood ear mushrooms and cabbage maybe? Textually it's crunchy and I like that in the soft wrapper. The salt & pepper tofu is sautéed with jalapeños which give it a nice kick. It's not your classic version of the this dish because the tofu is cubed into bite sized pieces and tastes a little more peanut-y than salt and pepper-y, but I didn't mind it. It was great over white rice. L V is perfect for a quick Chinese fix. Lunch specials are just a bonus.

Also any of their curries is excellent. This time we went with the massaman curries. Nice thick broth with peanuts, potatoes, onion and carrots in a coconut sauce. Another flavorful dish. And of course we always get the papaya salad Thai style with shrimp and peanut. There also the Laos style with fermented fish sauce and salty crab. It's quite nice too but it could be too strong of a taste for some people. The food has always been excellent. Service was always excellent with friendly staff. They're always so welcoming and attentive to their customers. A must for me whenever I'm down in Long Beach. Parking can be tricky as it's all street parking.
