We haven't tried this yet. Didn't have time to try before returning to our home in Washington but we are REALLY interested in trying their "pressed almond duck with brown gravy. It was easy to find 60 years ago at Cantonese restaurants but since it takes so much work to make, it's now hard to find. Will try next year... Am giving here 5 stars on the anticipation of the duck. read more

It was said women owned, but a man served me. I've been there several times. He is very rude and I think he did something to my food. It was horrible this time not ever going back. Going to tell friends not to patronize with their money to people that are rude to them never had this kind of rude rude. Service !!!!!! read more

Went to Kim's last night and was very happy with the food. With so many Chinese places closing, I've been searching for a new place and have found it. It was Super Bowl Sunday, the BEST day of the year to go out to eat, everyone is at home watching the game. Even traffic was really light. My wife and I got the bbq fried rice which was better than average, chicken and green beans (chicken was a tad salty) and shrimp chow mein. Overall it was a 4.5 star meal, rounded up to 5. We will definitely be back to explore more of the menu, especially the almond duck and egg fu young. read more

Kim's Restaurant - The burt Egg foo young. Covered up with gravy after I got it home. - Cantonese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The amount of food that you receive is worth it. The taste is good, nothing spectacular but if in the area I would return. The place it self is spacious. We ordered to go so the waiter that toon our order stood and stared the entire time from the moment we arrived til we left. That was weird. Overall decent. read more

Nextdoor lied to me. I will never listen to my neighbors again. Had seen Kim's brought up repeatedly when people were looking for good Chinese food in the area. My husband wanted Chinese. He always wants Chinese but probably doesn't get it often enough. We need more of "What Baby Wants, Baby Gets." But anyway. I looked at the pictures on here. Really wasn't impressed, but ignored myself and hoped for the best because they were close, we hate eating past 6:00, and it was already 7:30. But anyway. Ordered. Picked it up. As soon as I opened the containers, I knew it was going to be disappointment like going with the wrong person to prom. Like that level. It doesn't matter what we had because none of it was good. I'm sorry. I want more for us in this neighborhood. I'm giving two stars because there were large portions and I try to reserve 1 star for something extraordinarily bad. read more

I go here often when I want some egg foo young and the shrimp egg rolls. I also ordered the won ton soup when I felt under the weather, it was good though. The Staff are nice and always get your order to you. Everytime I've gone inside, it was pretty laid back and it is consistent read more

I've been here twice. The food is just gross. The sweet and sour pork didn't look cooked. Ambiance is Crenshaw plaza. read more

The ribs were excellent! Meaty and tasty!!! I stopped after work to pick up and they were still hot when I got home. Kim's did not disappoint. read more

The food is fresh and tasty. I order delivery online. Online menu doesn't offer combination plates.

Food is always delicious, packed high on the plate, arrives hot and never incorrect. I love this place! Whenever I have a cold or under the weather, I get the chicken noodle soup and I always feel better. read more

Love, love, love this place! Pro tip - park in the back rather than on Crenshaw Blvd, mainly because there are more spots there. This is the Chinese food that I'm most used to and it is a comfort food. The salad was great and the fried chicken even better. I always get take out since it looks like there is minimal seating in the restaurant, but that's okay. The ladies working there always seem happy and aim to please. Great place! read more

Kim's Restaurant - two takeout containers of food - Cantonese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We got this delivered so maybe the in restaurant experience is much different. For American Chinese food it was very bland. The noodles had good texture, but I couldn't really taste anything. When the orange chicken arrived it was in this very gelatin like sauce. So we needed to reheat it to make the sauce consistently a sauce again. The one thing I will say is that it comes with rice. We didn't have to pay for extra rice, so that was a plus. read more

For some SUPER GOOD OG Chinese food, this is THE PLACE. Reasonably priced, too! One of the best hole in the wall establishments around!

Got the chicken fried rice. No vegetable what so ever and chicken tastes bad. I wouldn't recommend it. Panda express serves better food. read more

Food is AMAZING I always come here for my fresh cooked meals everything is perfect . I definitely recommend this restaurant if yall love Chinese read more

I'm from the Midwest and the Chinese food i grew up with was usually deep fried and covered with gravy. I have spent YEARS being disappointed by the LA version of Egg Foo Young consisting of a dry egg omelette with peas and carrots. I was recently introduced to Kim's Restaurant and they brought Shrimp Egg Foo Young with actual bean sprouts fried to spongy perfection and served with brown gravy into my life and I love them for it. I have ordered egg foo young from this place 10 times and expect to order it a minimum of 10 more. The other menu item I highly recommend are the shrimp egg rolls. The only caveat about these items is they don't clean the baby shrimp. If you're the type to get the ick from seeing a line in the shrimp then this is not the place for you. I'm giving this place 5 stars ONLY for the two items I like. I can't recommend anything else I've ordered because there's nothing I would reorder. read more

The best food around town l love everything about them and food a favorite Chinese food in LA

Wow. I grew up in Vancouver, which has absolutely incredible Chinese food. I was transported back to childhood ordering takeout from this spot. I can't describe how perfect this place is. The portions are incredible, the walnut shrimp is crisp and creamy, the orange chicken was both sweet but pleasantly tart, the chow mein was phenomenal. I didn't have any but my husband LOVES pork fried rice and kept going back for more. If you want to be like the main character of a 90s movie with leftovers from the iconic containers for DAYS... order from here. Even the fortune cookies they give you transported me back. The ones with the faintly vanilla flavor that aren't super hard! Will be ordering all my LA Chinese food from here for the rest of my days. read more

Careful at this place. Their food could be acceptable on one day and vomit worthy the next. I experienced both. I went back there after boycotting them, in my own way, by not spending my money there, for approaching 4 years. It was a hit and miss. God bless food sellers to step up their game and stop taking advantage of the public. I quit, again. The quality of their food should be consistently good, not good one day and bad the next. They should enforce and demand hygiene and food handling classes of each of their employees and call them out when rubbing their face/nose, sneezing or coughing over or around food and digging in their ears, eyes, nose or mouth when they don't realize customers are watching. Help!! Just check out Chef Ramsey's shows showing deadly food being improperly retained or prepared and then given to people to consume. That's kind of wicked. Help Food Inspectors where are you? read more

Kim's is great and has been our go to Chinese spot for some time. We always order for pickup and it's ready within 15mins without fail.

Really fresh and flavorful. We had the House fried rice and the shrimp egg foo young. Will order again.

Kim's is a Chinese takeout restaurant in the Crenshaw-Baldwin Hills neighborhood. I was missing the tasty Chinese food back home in Baltimore and was looking for a delicious Cantonese takeout in the area. And Kim's was the first click on my Yelp page. I scanned the menu, looking for anything familiar. Instead of lo mein, there was chow mein. Now went here twice, so I'll describe both entrees. During the first visit, I got the beef chow mein. It was pretty good- nothing extraordinary- sliced beef, noodles, onion and a bit of cabbage if I'm not mistaken. I did add a bit of my own seasonings when I got home, but no complaints. The second time I went, I tried the combination of shrimp chow mein with a side of fried rice. It came with a little shrimp roll. This time around, I was a bit disappointed. Everything was a bit on the oily side, and lacked ALOT of flavor, which is the best way to explain it all. The egg roll was a bit spongy/greasy. The chow mein wasn't as good as the first time and the rice that came with the meal was so BORING! Literally fried rice with a bit of onion. No bean sprouts, no egg...barely any soy sauce! It was kind of sad because the portions are pretty large. I think that was the first time that I can remember in recent history that I didn't finish all of my Chinese food- that's saying quite a bit because I love Chinese food. I believe LA/Cali is known for their Thai restaurants, not so much their Chinese restaurants. And that's okay! The business seems to do pretty well & it just probably wasn't what I was used to. If you're not from the area and were looking for the restaurant on the main street, you'd probably overlook it. It sits behind the Eddie's and York & Orleans restaurants. If you parked on the back end of the restaurant, you'd see it much better. On the backside, it's a walk up kind of deal. The owners do well to limit customer and worker interaction (for Covid purposes, I'm assuming). You can walk into the front part, and even sit inside. It was neat and quiet from what I remember. If you're in the neighborhood, try them out. I gave them three solid stars because the food wasn't terrible, it was just under seasoned, a little oily and a bit boring. read more

Last Friday my husband ordered beef fried rice, orange chicken, and beef with rice noodles. This was my first time trying their food and it was delicious! I'm writing this review because I appreciate their customer service. There was a discrepancy on our receipt. They took my information and went through almost a week's worth of receipts to find ours and verify my claim. When they saw the issue they corrected it right away. I appreciated that so much! I will continue to support them in the future. read more

Yep! Still a five star food experience! I was jonesing for their egg foo young ( and of the varieties- I chose meatless this time because we were already having all the meats! It was cold and about to rain so Kim's warm food and warm smiles would make our stomaches feel like sunshine! ), so made my order and went to pick it up with the other middle-aged Kim's lovers braving the chilly wind for their boxes of food, too! We had the Shrimp Bok Choy, meatless egg foo young, broccoli and beef, and the large bbq pork chow mein. The egg foo young comes with steamed white rice so we were going to have every genre of food represented (note the full plate). As always, this food was enough for the two of us to eat heartily for two dinners with still some rice and egg foo young to eat the next day. Don't sleep on Kim's if you live or work in or near the Leimert Park area! read more

Kim's Restaurant - Broccoli Beef Shrimp with bok choy Large BBQ Pork Chow Mein 3 Piece Meatless Egg Foo Young - Cantonese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My mom and I were happy that Kim's was still open as so many restaurants we visited over the years have closed. We placed an order for pick up for us and my sister, husband, and two kids. So, for lack of better words we had a big order. We got their orange chicken, broccoli chicken, chicken fried rice, mushroom chicken, and cheese wontons. Also, we got my godmother an order of chicken broccoli. Everything was boxed up and hot for us. The lady that checked us out were so nice as we explained one of the chicken broccoli orders was for one. She was able to get us a small rice at no charge. We dropped off my godmothers food and digged into the other food at my sister's. Their food is still really good--especially the fried rice and chicken broccoli! Very yummy! Minus one star for the orange chicken that was a little too crispy and overcooked and did not have a lot of sauce. Otherwise everything was good! read more

Everything was so delicious and service was excellent!! We dined in and vibes were great. We didn't realize how big the portions were but we were not mad about it. There's a reason why it's been open and thriving for 60 years!! read more

The plate was overflowing and I had enough food for a few days!!! Thanks Kim for continuing to cook quality food!! read more

It's been more than 30 years since we've had Cantonese Chinese food. I am so glad for the internet which allowed us to find this place. I've looked for almond duck for years - and they have it! There haven't been many Cantonese restaurants near our location for many years. This place brought back some great memories! We drove more than 40 miles and it was well worth it. The food was excellent, the prices are very reasonable and the service was terrific. We'll definitely be coming back soon. Jeanette was terrific! read more
