This place isn't the same anymore the meat is soggy and taste weird the last 3 times I've gone there They are overpriced now and they don't even have the papalo in it which is what makes a cemita a cemita! I hope they can get back to making amazing cemitas like they used to be read more

Food was rushed and the meat quality was not great... My cemita meat was all skin and very chewy. I felt like I was eating a cemita with just the condiments. I've been to this place a couple times previously and I had never had such an experience. Server was showing uninterested in serving which was unfortunate felt very rushed. It is a nice area very rustic Mexico environment classic seating. read more

Cemitas ok, servicio malo, y no ay ni donde se pueda uno lavar las manos anter de comer.

I am not very familiar with cemitas other than them looking like tortas but I guess they are not the same but similar, they have a pretty big menu but again since I'm new I feel like I didn't really order what I should have, my cemita had little cheese, I was told cemitas had lots of cheese but after ordering I noticed it was an extra charge for that. So I ordered as is to try for the 1st time, we got the following 3 cemitas, Carnitas, Cueros, and milanesa, I think out of all 3 the carnitas was the best one, the cemitas lacked something I couldn't really figure out what but I think it may have been that extra cheese that I did not add, if they came with that besides the cheese that it comes with I think it would have been much better. I also ordered taco Arabe and that was not good at all, I did like that it was bigger than expected almost like a mini skinny burrito but this was not very tasty, dry meat and not so good chipotle salsa just not for me. If I am ever in the area I'll try it again. read more

Cemitas La China Poblana - Milanesa de res - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Tried this out with a coworker on a fine Thursday at noon. There was a parking lot with ample space and outdoor seating. Menu was simple with a small graphic on the side showing what's inside a "cemita." Ambiance was quiet with a Spanish show on TV playing in the background. They take card (Visa/MC) and cash. I got the cemita de milanesa ($8.52). A big portion for this price, very generous. It originally comes with jalapenos and cheese but I opted to not have those. The food came out fast, in about 5 minutes. They provide two paper plates and napkins in the to-go bag. Taste-wise, the chicken was flavorful and tender. It paired nicely with the avocado and bread. Some parts of the meat was hard to chew but overall, very good. Love the portion size. read more

First time at Cemitas. My dad wanted a torta but I wanted something softer cuz he's chimuelo. The woman who took my order was not friendly, but I'm not here to make friends. She reminded me of Lupe from Lupe's Burrito (RIP Lupe). Got cabeza and lengua. GOOOoood! Then there's the torta nazi comments in these reviews. I respect a place that does not change their orders just because the community is getting gentrified. Order what's on the menu or go somewhere else. How many people go to Father's Office to get a burger? They won't change it AND they won't offer ketchup. Like a lady at the traffic court counter told me: "This ain't Burger King! You don't get it your way." read more

Service is fast, food is priced just right and delicious. Plenty of seating outside. Highly recommend this place! read more

I been coming to this place for years. Yes the Cemitas are delicious but the customer service is horrible. Customer service should always be a priority when it comes to having a business. The guy taking the orders is a complete asshole with no personality. Even asking him a simple question he rolls his eyes like your dumb. He has no place to be dealing with clients, but perhaps he is the owners kid which makes total sense. He is the one with a tattoo on his middle finger on his left hand. Like I said " FOOD IS DELICIOUS, BUT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE"" read more

Worst service I've ever gotten at a hole in the wall restaurant. Food was not good and they were cold on top of it the lady who took our order was super rude. They never come out to wipe down the tables after a party has left. WILL NEVER COME HERE AGAIN! read more

Came here and I always order cemitas milanesa with meat well done and never had an issue until today I ordered and the old lady taking the orders tells me "we can't do that" and started going back and forth with me as I was telling her I don't like my meat raw and chewy I like it crispy horrible customer service arguing with clients Infront of other clients read more

Some of the best Cemitas around. Flavorful and not dry like most places. Good service, nice dining area.

Food was good. But place looks very old and dirty . A lot of flies ..there's no restroom and customer service was terrible.

Cemitas and tacos were great! Staff were nice and friendly. We stayed past closing time and they didn't kick us out read more

Cemitas La China Poblana - Cemita de milanesa - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Terrible customer service from this place, especially from the older woman at the register. Upon arriving to the window, I greeted the older woman at the register, who did not greet me as a customer, of course, I thought nothing of it. Once I placed the order and was visibly going to pay with Apple Pay, the older lady tells me my total and once I tap, she says "it went through" and walked away before I could ask for a receipt. As I'm waiting for the order and hear orders being called out, I realized I did not have a number because I never got a receipt. When I went to the window my order was ready and I mentioned to the lady I never received a receipt. The older lady was immediately defensive and rude stating I owed her money. The man next to her provided the receipt and it was that simple but the lady continued to argue. Such unprofessional and disgraceful behavior towards customers. Never visiting this place again. Wonder why they avoid providing receipts to paying customers who are paying with a debit card? Never had to ask for a receipt when paying with cash. BEWARE. Food is okay nothing great. Definitely not what it used to be. read more

Been eating at this place since I was a child place never disappoints food always amazing

Great taste. great price. definitely a go to spot for a cemita. Very large portion as well. When the bread is freshest they are FIRE!!!!!!

The food is good. To eat there or to go which ever you prefer. The ambience is alright

Las cemitas son excelentes. Un tanto incómodo el mini estacionamiento, dependiendo de la hora en que vayas. Aún con este pequeño inconveniente es grato disfrutar de una buena cemita poblana, pero para llevar. Comer en el lugar depende de tus gustos. Como todo lugar que ofrece alimentos, debe existir el servicio al cliente. Lamentablemente este sitio carece de ello, el que está al frente vendiendo, siempre mal encarado y algo rudo, obviamente no disfruta de trabajar ahi. Una cara más amable y mejor atención les vendría bien. read more

Food is very delicious and the service is always quick. I love their chicken cemitas it's my favorite here. They do have seating area which is a plus if you like patio seating. Would recommend! read more

I come to eat here, and I order a cemita de milanesa, and I ask no chile , and I order one taco Árabe and I didn't know they already put the chile on it. When I got a bite of the taco Árabe for me it was very spicy. I couldn't eat. I went to ask the guy if can change it no spice he said nip no no I can't. I'm not from Mexico is my first time here. He was mean, he wasn't polite. For me i wouldn't come back again read more

I can't speak to the customer service because I ordered delivery, but I'm glad I took a risk despite the low star reviews (I was definitely worried lol). The chicken Milanesa cemita was amazing: full of flavor, generous amount of both cheeses, super thin chicken cutlet, not too much smoky chipotle, herby papalo, creamy avocado, and the roll had a perfect chewy, tender bite. Minus one star because it was a little dry, but I just added a little bit of mayo on my own. The agua de jamaica was perfect flavor and great sweetnes too! Will definitely order again soon. read more

I've been coming here since I was a kid and I love it ! The food tastes just the same . My order is milanisa cemita with a side of chipotle sauce It's mouth watering !!!! The outdoors seating is cute and the service is good ! Lots of parking too ! Thank you !! read more

La comida me encanta. La que no me encanta es el cajero, Abran y su actitud, no hamable. El pobre hombre esta triste de tener un trabajo que no le satisfase, y se nota aleguas. Este negocio cobra por usar la tarjeta de credito. Abran no se comunica que hay cobro por usar la tarjeta de credito, tampoco no tienen un letrero en la ventana que indique que te cobran. No me gusta. Sorpresa, un negocio que no es sincero no merese negocio del publico. Abran, es el cajero mas amargado de Los Angeles. Pobre hombre! read more

We're regular weekly clients. Tables are never that clean and still we don't complain. Today we just had to walk away cuz the guy at the counter treated us like we were dogs. We approached the window to oder and he just stopped us with his hand like if we were dogs he couldn't even say give us a second or anything kind. Business owners train your employees properly if it's not for clients you guys won't have business read more

Hoy después de 4 años viniendo a este lugar tuve la peor experiencia ordené 3 cemitas con quesillo cuando me entregaron mi orden mire que tenían queso fresco, me acerqué respetuosamente y le comenté al cajero que si podía cambiarlo por el quesillo porque yo no había ordenado con queso fresco y me dice muy molesto si te lo puedo cambiar pero serían 7.50 por las 3 lo cual yo le dije pero porque me vas a cobrar si me diste algo que yo no pedí me aventó muy molesto la bolsa de las cemitas y me dijo pues si quieres serían 7.50 y comenté que nunca me an cobrado el quesillo porque va incluido en la cemita o queso fresco o quesillo y el muy molesto me dijo no me interesa sabes con quien estás hablando soy el dueño y me aventó la orden alo cual yo le respondí pues que mal que siendo el dueño trates así a tus clientes y agarré mi Orden y me fui creo que para ser el dueño te ase falta mucha educación y respeto para tus clientes en especial en tratar con las mujeres read more

Came from Vegas in search for these cemitas, only to be disappointed. Ordered 4 milanesa cemitas for the family. All I was asked was if we wanted jalapeños in all of them. I assumed they came as the pictures... string cheese, queso fresco, meat, avocado, onion, mayo, and chipotle. Nope!!! They had mayo, avocado, meat and queso fresco. I asked if they came with string cheese, the guy at the window said "no, you have to ask for it because it is more expensive." To try to redeem my experience I asked if he could sell me just a portion of the string cheese, he said, "no, I cannot sell you the cheese separately, it has to be done in the order." I've had these before and that's is why I specifically looked to go here again, although there are other loncheras, restaurants we could've gone to. The guy did not care to help me out at all. Me being out of town, how was I supposed to know I needed to ask for every individual ingredient that I want in it, nor was i offered to add it while ordering. Sad ending read more

So I wrote a review and left it on Google explaining how the cemitas were horrible, dry and with no flavor. The place is a hole in the wall and dirty also. The owner's response to me? Not surprised one bit. Crappy food and unprofessionalism is to be expected. They either had their 12 year old son write this reply or they themselves are uneducated and can't take constructive criticism. Either way, is a lose lose situation. read more

Cemitas La China Poblana - The response I got from their "management" lmfao! - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My boyfriend and I decided to try this new place out because of the reviews we saw on Google. I've had several cemitas in my life and this place has to be the worst. The cemita or bread itself was very hard. The milanesa had no flavor at all!! It taste a bit better once we added some chipotle on it but it was just lacking flavors from everywhere. We also got a taco arabe on the side and it was just so plain with no flavor. They didn't even even quesillo on the taco as most places do. We both took a bite of the taco and threw it away. If you are looking for flavorful cemitas with quality ingredients this is not the place. I would not be coming back to this place. read more
