The old Chinese restaurant has stood the test of time in Hollywood for fifty-six years. The interior displays traditional Chinese ambiance with a stone buddha statue guarding the host counter upon entry. The Asian hand painted folding paper fans along the walls and the red Chinese New Year lanterns hanging from the ceiling added a nice touch to the subtle decor. We were sat immediately at a booth of our choice. The dining room was empty of customers with an eerie silence. The server greeted us with the standard duck sauce and golden crispy crackers and the traditional metal tea kettle and cups. I slurped down my wanton soup that had plump wanton and not salty thin broth. The General Tso Chicken with fried rice was a huge portion and tasty. The fried eggroll had a crisp outer shell and was dense with veggies, although it seemed more like an oversized spring roll than a traditional Chinese egg roll, but the superb taste overshadowed the petite size. As were eating, I still could not stop noticing that we were the only customers at lunchtime 12pm during the work week. I will take great food and attentive service any day over a loud packed dining room but could this be the end of a strong fifty-six year run to end the China Lane legacy? I sure hope not. As the bill arrived, I noticed a portion at the bottom with suggested tip percentages to merely place a checkmark in a box - not bad, just unique. The gender assigned bathroom was clean with a dominant red door and gray marble-like tile. The toilet rules written on the front of the tank made me chuckle and added some unexpected humor to a traditional Chinese restaurant (see pic and read). read more

We had a disappointing lunch here. My husband's won ton soup was the best part of his meal. I got the eggroll with my lunch special. The outer wrapper was good and crisp. Inside was mushy -- like it had been frozen and thawed too often. My husband ordered the lemon chicken. The chicken was breaded and fried and served on a bed of lettuce. He said it was crunchy. It came with lime slices. The sauce was served on the side. It was overly thick and limey -- not lemony. My pork with mixed vegetables was just okay. It wasn't consistently warm. Parts were cold and parts were warm. The pork had a lot of fatty bits. The fried rice served with it was awful. Well, we tried. We won't be back. read more

We were in the area doing errands and decided to give this place a try. Parking right in front and easy entry. We were seated in a booth and looked over the menu to decide what to have for lunch. I chose the Lemin Chicken with white rice and Won Ton soup. My dish arrived with LIME slices on top of the chicken. The chicken was nice and crunchy and sat on a bed of shredded lettuce. The sauce that was served for the chicken had more of a LIME flavor than Lemon. I like LIME, but not when I'm expecting Lemon ... read more

I can say the atmosphere was pleasant, clean, and the new furniture fit in perfectly. The waitress was outstanding. She brought our water right away, took our order and I can tell you the food was outstanding. I had Happy Family, which consisted of everything. It came out hot and delicious. So much food, I had enough for a second dinner. I give it a 10. read more

Bland flavorless food. Ordered lunch special which included Kung Po Chicken and pork fried rice as well as an egg roll. The kung po had zero flavor. Thank goodness they included condiments which I liberally added so I could eat the meal. The fried rice only had pork and rice and was also extremely bland. The egg roll was crispy on the outside but the inside of the roll wrapper was chewy and raw. read more

45 years!!! And better than ever!! Oh lobster Cantonese just like I remember! Amazing portions. Don't have to beg or ask for soup noodles. Fresh, flavorful, kind, polite, classy, confident in their food and don't rely on reputation because word of mouth gets around. I felt so sick yesterday and all I could manage was something healthy and wanted comfort food al- best mixed wonton, house wonton. Best hot n sour soup. Best lobster dishes and shrimp - huge and fresh!-and veggie egg rolls like butter!! Same respect my dad got and we went every week as a family and they respect families. Service dogs and haven't your way orders best In Hollywood & Fort Lauderdale. Sure overpay and impress on las Olas. Most places there are nothing compared to where I ate in NYC as a kid. San Fran after college, Seattle seafood joints and dive bars and all. Or Vancouver BC dim sum. Mot places so overpriced and I can make it better. I'm not throwing away my money and don't need to be impressed by ambiance. I want authentic great food and customer service and someone smart enough to know I don't need your bragging, i want good food. Sorry Morton's, Capitol Grille, Flemmings, Timpanos, Noodles panini, Rocco's Tacos and all the overpriced crap and Korean Hispanic sushi restaurants where they overcharge and don't know how to cut the fish and want you to pay every penny for sauces wasabi and ginger. When there's no GODAMN ingredients in the sushi rolls !! Fk that. And yes I was a food critic for paper in Miami and now sushi is worth $1000 for 2 Ogawa group . Even joes crabs meat sticks to shells. Jessie is rolling in his grave Stevie!! You ain't your dad read more

After being on dirty dinning and cleaning up your food issues, I continue supporting our neighborhood business.

I saw this location near me and decided to order for takeout. When we arrived, we noticed it was a family style dining with takeout many.we order to go and enjoyed our meal home. We had a chicken wings, special lo mein special fried rice, chicken tso and a few other plates. Everything we had was delicious and the place was packed. We enjoyed our meal so much that we came a second time to dine in this time we had some other things like a boneless ribs, roasted duck and dumplings and once again everything was delicious and the dining service was fantastic . Overall this is a very solid Chinese spot for either takeout or dine in. read more

This place is LEGIT! As soon as I picked up the order and it was provided in a fortune cookie card board box, I knew it had to be good. I grew up eating south Florida Chinese food and China Lane is dead on with the flavor. If you're not from this area, it may not be your jam. If you are, this is the place for you! The wonton soup was out of this world!!! It was dark in color and rich in flavor. It had shredded pork and bok choy in it and I haven't seen soup made like this in forever. I'm salivating just thinking about it. I opted for the spare ribs combo with fried rice and an eggroll. The ribs were all meaty and covered in delicious sweet sauce. The rice was pretty good and plentiful. Eggroll was fine, nothing to write home about. My husband got the sesame chicken combo. The pieces of chicken were massive. He thought it was fantastic. The prices are a little steep, but worth it for the portions and flavor. If you pay with cash, you'll save money as they charge 4% to use a credit card. I am so happy I found this gem. Next time I'm in south Florida I will be making my way back! read more

So I use to live in Hollywood and this was my family's go to spot for Chinese food over 30 years ago. Well good news the food is still good. My wife and I were really craving Chinese food and we were in the area. So glad we did. The young lady that was serving us was such a sweet and nice person. Super friendly and not rushed or rushing us. The restaurant has not changed at all. Still looks the same inside, which is not a bad thing because it was old but clean. We had the Shazwan beef and pork in black bean sauce. We added the soup eggroll in fried rice to the meals, which was very reasonably priced to do.. As many people know it is very hard to get good Chinese anywhere anymore as most places are just fast food takeout . Thankfully, you can sit down and get a really good Chinese meal and get takeout from here as well . The hot and sour soup that we got was delicious. Not too thick great flavor not over spicy not over sour it was just right. The fried rice had a nice rich, dark color, and was very flavorful. The eggrolls were crunchy and fresh really enjoyed them. As for our dishes, they were absolutely delicious. The pork was super tender, and the black bean sauce was not salty and had a great flavor. The Shazwan beef had a mild spice to it which we requested, and the beef itself was very tender, and the sauce again was not over salted, and just had a great flavor . If we are back in the area, we are definitely going to return . read more

I found my new Chinese restaurant near my house. It's located in a strip mall which has plenty of parking right off Hollywood Blvd. The food wasn't greasy and very hot. I ordered take out on a Saturday evening. The meals also came with an egg roll each which isn't in the photos. The food was ready when expected and inside was half full with patrons. Nothing special inside and very minimal interior design. read more

China Lane is old fashioned N.Y. style Chinese food. I was passing Panda Express looking for chicken and broccoli for lunch. I pulled China Lane up on Yelp and found the reviews to be accurate. The food was a strong 4. I was surprised by how good the plain fried rice tasted. I actually took it home with the egg roll for another time thinking it would just be mundane but it was not. The chicken was thinly slices and not dry. The broccoli was fresh and still had some crunch to it. The soup didn't wow. Next time I would try their wonton soup. If I'm ever in the area, I will pick up some Chinese food to go. I really liked the service too. Our server was quick and attentative. I want b rushed out. read more

I have been going to this place for 15 years, the food, service and staff are always the best. I am a pork fried rice lover, and I have tried it other places, but they pale in comparison. When my husband or I order, we usually do take out, I almost always call, but we have gone online to order, when I wasn't on the fly, and either way is very effective & efficient, not to mention, well worth the $$. We love this place. read more

My in laws love this place and wanted us to join them tonight for dinner My husband had the curry chicken, my mother in law had the Singapore lobster and my father in law had the shrimp and lobster sauce which came with a soup and an egg-roll They accommodated me by steaming vegetables and rice noodles with nothing in it because I have a lot of food allergies The service was great even though they were very busy. They were attentive and eager to fulfill all our needs. We would definitely come back especially now that I know I have a food option I can eat. read more

Ordered for the family. Threw out the dinner. I have never thrown out simple pork egg foo young in all my life. $75.00 wasted. Family said it was the worst Chinese food ever! Even the egg and spring rolls were awful. I ordered it mid day..maybe it was all old leftover food? read more

Looking for an authentic Chinese place with actual Chinese fried rice that isn't extremely greasy the wrong rice and the wrong toppings- look no further china lane is the spot! I ordered takeout House special fried rice with no shrimp because i'm deathly allergy and they obliged with no problems which is a big deal for me because too often other places contaminate the rice with shellfish causing problems for me. I also ordered their honey garlic chicken and it was amazing and the portion of both meals was amazing! wish i had picture but the pictures on the page are exactly what you get! i will be making this my to go chinese spot for takeout and probably will order in and dine in with my loved ones for a relaxing good meal! i'll be back don't listen to the bad reviews and get good food with fast service worth the price! read more

My last couple take out visits have been a miss. I typically always get the tempura shrimp and ribs combo with special fried rice upgrade and the last 2 times my ribs were dry and overcooked and unpleasant. I also recommend to a friend who said it's terrible food which really sucks since I raved about it. I even asked to make sure my ribs were fresh and tender and saucy this time and left without checking to find they were not. I was given extra sauce which I appreciate and the other items were great but it left me with less faith in the execution. I won't be back for a bit. read more

I called in to place an order. The man that answered was very unfriendly from the beginning. I asked him if it would be possible to make the shrimp lo mein not so soupy? He quickly responded " I don't go to your business and tell you how to make things! And told me to stop wasting his time and choose another Restaurant?! I have ordered from this restaurant several times before. But never had an experience like this one. read more

I have been thinking of trying this place out as it had a Dim Sum menu, I was greeted and seated immediately and handed both the regular menu and the Dim Sum menu, not long afterwards the waitress asked what I wanted to drink I asked for a favorite Chinese tea called Bo Lay(excuse the spelling)cha, she said they didn't have that and so I went with Oolong instead, the waiter came to take my order which I gave him in Cantonese (the look on his face was priceless as he didn't expect a Gwai Lo talking to him in his own language) any how I ordered the Char Siu Boa (Hong Kong style BBQ Roast pork buns) Har GAO (shrimp dumplings) pork shu mai and a bowl of pork fried rice, all arrived perfectly at the same time and piping hot, I must say one of the best Dim sum meals I've had in many years so I highly recommend this one. As a side note the atmosphere was nice and some of the looks I got from other patrons was amusing to say the least, I'm not sure if they thought I was joking or actually speaking Cantonese read more

I've been coming to this place for years when I am in the mood for good Chinese food it never disappoints! Yes they don't have very many staff but the staff they do have are always helpful and super kind . The place is also super comfy if you want to sit and eat inside. I saw in another review that someone complained about the wait but personally I didn't experience this problem any of the times I've been there every time I go the staff of 2 have been sure to make sure we have our food on time and are helpful in refilling drinks and making sure we are happy just be patient. I love this place and don't think that will ever change . read more

Finally we have found a Chinese restaurant that is close to home, has good food that isn't fancy or elaborate and also has good service. Located next to a Pizza Hut store, the place is about the size of two stores. A bit dated in its decor, it is clean. Very clean. I mean, I looked up and noticed the air vents where clean! We ordered a small wonton soup, egg rolls, special fried rice and honey garlic chicken. Our regular go-to's when going to a Chinese restaurant. Everything came out in a timely manner. The wonton soup was very good, the egg rolls, not as big as say Pei Wei rolls, where freshly fried and much tastier than Pei Wei. The special fried rice was as to be expected, it had ham, chicken, veggies, etc. And the honey garlic chicken was plentiful. The honey garlic chicken came on the side so as not to get the fried chicken all mushy. At the end, when the waitress was packing the left overs, she actually used a small container for the honey garlic sauce instead of pouring it all over the left over chicken! We will definitely be going back and ordering for either pick up or home delivery. read more

This place is awesome. The service is industry standard and the management is exceptional. I mistakenly ordered a large take out order from this restaurant instead of a different one. So I called to cancel due to some limited circumstances so they courteously offered to deliver instead. I agreed. At the time of the delivery, I discovered an order issue. so I reached out immediately while the driver was present and the management dispatched another delivery with the correction. Soon after unpacking and inspecting the order I discover another issue..I'd ordered Chow Mein instead of Lo Mein... I was on the phone again. Management promptly responded. He was very patient, polite and understanding. He'd recognized it as a common customer issue and quickly offered me a pickup Lo Mein replacement with no additional cost. In conclusion, the restaurant not only facilitated stellar food service but helped me fix what initially started as a total disaster. I haven't left a review in years but I believe that this was well earned. I highly suggest CHINA LANE as a top recommendation for the locals and beyond for Chinese dine in and take out. THANK YOU CHINA LANE!!! 5 STARS!!! read more

I'm not sure why this place receives such high ratings. The food was very mediocre. Our server was decent and she was trying hard. But she was a little slow because she had too many tables. The place wasn't particularly crowded; however, they only had a few servers working that night. She tried her best and she was nice. She was just overwhelmed. We ordered the General Tso's combination dinner and the Beef with Broccoli combination dinner. I also ordered the steamed dumplings. My kids ordered the pu pu platter. Everything came in piecemeal and it was seriously annoying. The soup came first, then the egg rolls, then the dumplings and finally, the meal. The main entrees took way too long to get to our table. The water wasn't being refilled and everything was just too slow. I might or might not give this place another chance. There are just so many other Chinese restaurants that I don't feel I have to go back here. read more

Being from New York, we are very picky when it comes to American Chinese food, and this is the closest we got to the taste of home. We took our order to go and by the time we got home, the food was still nicely warm. We got all the traditional Chinese staples and they didn't miss. If you are in the area or looking for a Chinese spot to try, this is the place to go. read more
