The food -- overall, good, but not great. The vegetables were great. And the beef dishes were very flavorful. The Beijing duck was good, not gamey. I was excited for the dumplings but they were a bit disappointing... coming from NYC, I've had much better in Chinatown. The service -- what you expect from a high end place, but they were rather pushy to get us to order more as we were a large group and obviously tourists. read more

Love the vibe here always food never lets me down . Classic and the service is unmatched I do my birthday there every year for the last 10 years straight read more

one of my favorites places for dinner, Mr Chow is the best . Food is always great , very large selection of favorite dishes and amazing service and staff . The bartenders also makes great cocktails thank you read more

The food is delicious, and the ambiance was fantastic. However, I can't stand it when waiters push their customers into preset pricing at these tourist traps. The staff, including our waiter, were incredibly sweet and attentive, which made the experience initially enjoyable. I ordered a few items that were perfect for both myself and my four year old, but the waiter kept recommending a set menu. Wondering why I was pretty much being pushed into it, I asked if it was a better deal, he assured me it was . I specifically mentioned my child's age, asking if he would be charged, and the waiter confidently said no. Unfortunately, I ended up paying nearly three times more for essentially the SAME MEAL. While a few extra dollars isn't a huge deal, misleading your customers is never a good business practice read more

I don't how or why this place ever became so popular and stupidly expensive !!! This was lit was literally the worst experience at a restaurant in a long time. This was our first time , Darko our waiter kept pushing to do 6 course!! 2 drinks and dinner for 3 $460....and I'm OK with spending money ,but, the food was terrible! To say the least we will never go back. DONT waist time! Zero star read more

I'm going to start with the ambiance. Upon arrival there are so many individuals that greet you at the door. I love how they pull out the table for you to sit down. Super cool! There are a group of servers that take care of you the entire time. It's so awesome? We did the restaurant week menu. I got the shrimp toast and my date had the chicken satay. Omg so good. The shrimp toast came with a crispy shredded seaweed. The spicy sauce complimented everything so nice. The entrees were so full of flavor. Crispy beef was delicious. Everything was good. This is a dining experience! read more

The food was mid, and overpriced. Don't mind spending a lot on food but it has to be worth it. The staff was also so incredibly rude that it ruined the entire experience read more

Waiters are way too aggressive trying to get you to do the pre fixed menu which is 112 per person. We sat down the waiter was telling us we had to do pre fixed menu blah blah we said no we wanna do a la carte he takes our order and then goes oh I'll only charge you for 3 pre fixed menus it will be cheaper when there were 4 of us. Scammer trying to make it seem like he's helping us when he isn't. It was not cheaper his way. So forceful just take my order and bring me my food. Never ever going back and it's such mid Chinese food . read more

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE CHEATS. i went to pick up a takeout. I ordered the crispy beef but the maitre advised me to get the Fiery beef, saying the Crispy beef will be mushy when i get home. I agreed to Fierybeef, waited 30 minutes,but when i got home it was a SUPERTINY portion of "Crispybeef",now Mushybeef. However, i was charged $64 instead of $58, PLUS A TINY portion of saltless, tasteless,cheap sticky steamed rice for an EXTRA $28. Charged A total of $102.00 plus wanted a 20% tip. PLUS $20 for parking. WHAT A RIPOFF. STAY AWAY HERE. DISGUSTING OPPORTUNISTS. MEDIOCRE CRAPPY FOOD read more

Way overpriced, and the food was lousy. This is the best example of the worst Chinese fusion restaurant. The staff looked as if none of them didn't want to be there, just going through the motions of the job that they hated. Be careful not to trip on the thick shaggy carpet. Not for me. read more

Best restaurant in LA! It's my second time coming here, and I already can't wait for the next visit. Every single items are extremely savory and special And you never know if you're be seated right next to celebrities!! read more

Food was excellent and the service was superb. We celebrated a birthday and we had a wonderful dinner read more

Food was awful. Asked for vegan options, ordered the Mapo Tofu and fried rice. My friend had the Sweet N Sour Pork, she said it was nothing special. Rice was undercooked. My food must have had dairy or something foreign in it because I got food poisoning and became sick on the ride home. Definitely overpriced and not worth it. Staff seemed somewhat blah as well. Would not recommend. Will never return. read more

Pleasantly surprised- great service. Definitely expensive. I never had noodles that melt in your mouth like that

Spent 600 bucks before tip for dinner of 4. If you like mediocre Chinese food that is not much better than Panda Express, this is the place for you. I love fine dining and getting an experience for what I'm paying for or getting food that is amazing and unique. Mr. Chow was average to any basic Chinese restaurant. You can find something 100 times better in Monterey Park at a fraction of the price. Not worth going to. The service was very good and friendly but don't come here to expect any kind of amazing food experience. Felt like re-plated Chinese take out. read more

We stumbled into this charming little spot for a libation while out for a walk and it was packed but we made our way to the bar. After seeing several dishes being served we decided to sample the fare and asked for a table. We are very kindly lead to a table where our experience began all over again. The service was graciously friendly and the food superb. We tried the Mr Chao noodles which we delicious, the dumplings that were served with a crisp top and a phenomenal filet mignon perfectly prepared with exorbitant flavor and an impeccable crunchy edge. What a great experience! read more

For an asian restaurant, there was 0 asian people inside. We were the only asian party that existed in the whole restaurant. Food is a poor excuse for Chinese food. Trust me, I get it, Chinese American is a different cuisine. This place is stuck in the 80s, when people didn't know China was a country that consisted of multiple regional cuisines. Demographic is filled with rich Beverly Hills businessmen that lack taste, culture, and respect for themselves. Peking Duck was dry and bland. Green Prawns were bland. P.S. I don't want the staff to go jobless, I just hate the concept of this place. read more

It's always Fab!it's not your typical Chinese food (thankfully) it's an amazing culinary experience. It's pricey so don't go eat there and give it a bad review because of the prices read more

A staple in BH for decades! The best chicken satay in the world. Love the crispy duck, walnut prawns, and Beijing chicken. Service is impeccable and super prompt! read more

My favorite of the lot are: Beverly Hills, Tribeca, MidTown and Miami - so far are the only other ones I've frequented. This is a spot where I follow a routin and that starts with a Lychee Martini (or they make a special 1/2 lychee 1/2 cosmo mix that is delish too). It's great people watching- at times you'll see real celebrities but most of the time you'll see people in the business who think they are celebrities as well as those who work in the business that feel they are the ones who make it all run. My routine continued: Gambo with Goodies (I don't know exactly what this is but its green, dry, crunchy, salty and addictive), Squab with Lettuce Cups accompanied by a yummy Sauce and the Chicken Satay (doused in amazing sauce) to start. Followed by: the Druken Fish (fresh Sole poached in Wine) - love this! or the Ma Mignon (tender sliced Filet Mignon) or the Beijing Peking Duck - this is the only spot where I will order Duck- served crispy, sliced and with amazing Plum Sauce. The Fried Rice here is so good- its doesn't seem fried. The ambiance at most locations is clean, sleek, modern- not too distracting because I think they want the main attractions to be the crowd and the food. It's impossible not to like something on the menu here, there is something for everyone. Don't forget your wallet! read more

Crowded, noisy, delicious chaos. The food is good despite the hype, specializing in award wining authentic Beijing eats. We were at Mr Chow to take a promisingly lucrative meeting for an event with people that frequent this spot so my focus wasn't primarily on the three course duck dinner which was carved beautifully at the table. Despite more than a few A list celebrities, I was most especially entertained by the proficient noodle making conducted at a nearby table, the arty Warhol prints and well mixed Five Spice Old Fashioned with rye. read more

Food is soo good The Peking duck and the lobster are 5 stars. Fried rice pretty bland. Food was so good I forgot to take many pictures and what all I ate. Great spot for private parties. We rented the upstairs which comes with a massive sonos speaker and we brought in a magician. Amazing space & great service. Will be back ;) read more

I actually haven't eaten here in years. Tonight had a hankering for Chinese so decided to maybe try me chows again. As I was looking through the menu on Postmates, I came across steamed rice for $23. FOH. NOBODY SHOULD EAT HERE. Ever read more

Mr Chow - $23 steamed rice - Chinese Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

While I did know that one is more about the scene than the food, this place is hilariously expensive. The food is so so. Everything had similar texture and temperature (lukewarm) . The glassware doesn't hold up to the wine list and the service is attentive but pushy. The up-sell is very much still alive apparently. You could literally go to any authentic Chinese restaurant for better tasting food and it would cost 1/8 as much. You definitely get the sense that staff meeting here revolve around how to make sales rather than anything else With that said, it's a fun atmosphere but certainly not worth the tarrif. Glad we did it but won't be going back read more

Mr Chow - Chinese Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Was really looking forward to experiencing Mr. Chow, especially since it's so highly talked about. Honestly all the meals we had were delicious and the service was incredible. Maybe a little less interruption during dining would be better? I appreciated being checked on but twice is enough, I think. Food was expensive as was the wine list but we knew that going in. It's definitely not an everyday restaurant but would recommend to anyone who asks to try it at least once. We sat outside so can't speak to the indoor ambiance, but the flowers and fence on the sidewalk made it feel intimate enough. read more

I finally made it to Mr Chow. Service was nothing short than Amazing. All staff from host/server/chef welcoming and very attentive. The restaurant is chic and I love the fresh flowers through the dining room it's beautiful. Food was a little lackluster but maybe just didn't get the right item! read more

The food at Mr. Chow was not only the worst meal I've had in my five years living in LA, it's the worst meal I've had out in my life. Also I'm a physician and eat at several hospitals during the week, and I've never had as bad of food at a hospital as I have had at Mr. Chow. A lot of reviewers have compared it to Panda Express, but Panda Express in my opinion is so much better. My experience with the food was that it was tasteless, overcooked to the point of being mush, and made us feel sick after every bite. We started with the pictured chicken satay and squid ink rice noodles. The chicken satay was covered in a soft, thick and tasteless breading, and smeared with an equally tasteless sauce that was part butter part mayonnaise in consistency. Actually this dish looks much different than their photos online of this so called infamous house special. Maybe they only serve the real food to the rich and famous? The squid ink rice noodles were atrocious. You couldn't even find the noodles because they were completely over cooked, turning them to mush. And the taste made me and my friend sick to our stomachs, and we both love squid ink anything. If you can find a noodle shape in the photo attached you deserve a prize. The gamblers duck was laughable to us, because how do you mess up duck? The photo shows exactly how it was served to us before we "dug In." Not much on presentation that's for sure. I couldn't even eat the duck because it was so dry. Try wrapping it up in the pancakes they serve it with and you will choke. They also came with cucumber and scallions that looked a week old. When we told the waiter it was dry he said this is how it's suppose to be because it's fried. I've seen other reviews that complain about the dryness so when we ordered it why did he not say, this is not everyone's favorite because it's more dry for ones liking. Also I've never heard anyone say about a dish, mmm this is so dry, it's super good. We also had the drunken fish, not pictured. Overcooked mush again served in another slimy sauce. May as well have eaten baby food instead of this dish. Even the sides of mixed vegetables and shrimp fried rice were not good!! How can you get that wrong?? The rice looked gray in color and was again, tasteless. I had to mix it with the obviously store bought hot sauce of which they proudly served us at the start of the meal, to even try to fill up on something. No wonder they give you mediocre hot sauce to cover the nauseating food! The best part of this whole experience is that when we complained very nicely to the waiter and manager, he argued with us about every dish and then yelled take it all away to one of the other waiters. A happy ending to a sad story however is that they just charged us for our drinks and two starters, and all else was compensated for. Btw a Diet Coke will score you $6 on your bill, and the glass they fill it with isn't even a can's worth. Overall, stay away from Mr. Chow in LA! I was so scared for the next 24h I would get food poisoning since nothing seemed fresh or even edible. It is the worst food I've even eaten out and I won't even try the other locations in other cities even though some of my friends swear by them. It's either something about the LA Mr. Chow or something about not being famous enough to be served fresh food... read more

The crispy duck is to dye for. The ambience is absolutely beautiful service impeccable. I've been going there 40 years.

There are a number of restaurants I go to once a year strictly "for old time sakes"! Places I've been going to for decades: Lawry's Musso Dan Tanas Chin Chin Chinois Phillips Apple Pan and (maybe) a dozen more. Do I go to these places because the food is outstanding? No. Do I go there to walk down memory lane? Yes. And Mr. Chows fits firmly in this column. I've been coming here since 1975 and love the ambience, the familiar faces I always see and in Mr. Chows case, I'll include the food. Mr. Chows is not Chinese or Singaporean or actually any ethnic cuisine for that matter. For me, it's just good. My standard order (always) includes: Chow Special Noodles Gambe Sesame Prawn Toast Spouts Deep Fried Beef Drunken Fish Pesto Shrimp Chow Rice Like I said above, once a year for over forty years the same dinner, every time. I'll do this deed as long as I'm above ground - and that's a fact Jack! read more

My fiancé has been making a 2021 bucket list. Things that are within reach for this year at least, whether that be try a new food or try a new activity that we normally don't do. Trying Mr. Chow's infamous Lychee Martini was on her list. One we have never had a Martini, and two the Lychee Martini has great reviews. We made a reservation on a Saturday with just the expectation of grabbing a drink and maybe desert. Just socially drinking on a Saturday night. Well apparently at Mr. Chow it is not allowed to order a drink if you are not going to eat. From what I understood from the employee is that nothing is a la carte, which is ok I wasn't really planning on eating anyways. We were then asked after placing a drink order, if we were going to eat. Which we said no , we just really came to try the martini. We were told that it wasn't allowed because they have such a high demand of reservations. I know, that's exactly why we made a reservation. Our intentions were to be there if anything max 30 minutes. After talking to the employee, we were given our drink. I decided not to order a drink at that point for myself because I did not want to spend another second there. I let my fiancé enjoy her Lychee Martini. As soon as our drink came out our check was on the table. Giving us the indication of "Ok drink your drink and get out." I've never been to a restaurant where we were told that we have to order food in order to get drinks. 10/10 for the martini and 0/10 for these rules and regulations. read more

We were impressed by the attentive, good service. The food was better than we expected and we were all pleased. Since Mr Chow has been open for decades, the menu and style are somewhat different than many other Chinese restaurants in LA. read more

I love this place so much! It's a family favorite- we've been to every location & this is definitely a favorite! The service is always 10/10 and the food is perfect.

During the pandemic, I've only had Mr Chow for take out. I am looking forward to dining either outdoors on their patio sidewalk or indoors very soon; it's back on my rotational list as I've been dining at my other local favorites as well.. Yet, I must say their crispy Gamblers Duck was incredibly savory and fresh in quality (to be expected). I always crave their Glazed Prawns & Chicken Satay (they never ever disappoint)! I heard their Green Prawns are extraordinary, so I have yet to try them. Looking forward... Service during pandemic was excellent. Called in ahead of time to place sizable spendy order ($270 including tip) and pick up was easy and timely. Now I'm hungry just thinking about Mr Chow, WTS? Just confirmed rsvp to go for dinner this week, bahahahaha !!! read more

Can I give it 0 stars? Does $32 for white rice say enough? How about $60 for maybe 3oz of cold noodles? Or the $58 "orange" chicken where the waiter described it as "a cut up chicken breast with orange sauce." What about the crispy "beef?" Ask me if there was actually beef... I sincerely don't think there was beef in the crispy strips. I love the LA food scene and this is an insult to it. When you drive by the place, it's not even worth the time to turn your head and look at it. Too many great restaurants have gone under. This place needs to disappear and never come back. Mr. Chow, get yourself together. read more

Lychee martini 10/10 Service, Ambiance, vibe 0/10. Manager came off rude and it killed my entire vibe there after driving 2hrs to try a darn martini. Literally all I wanted was a martini but they gave me such a hard time wanting just 1 single item read more

I'll give Mr.Chow BH a good 3.5 stars due to the customer service. We are in L.A often and dine around BH a lot, this visit we made reservations at Mr.Chow for my husband birthday dinner. Upon arriving we were placed at a table on the back corner of the restaurant that had way more chairs than people in our group which made it not so intimate as it was a double dinner date. The manager quickly relocated us as we shared the level of un-comfortability. The table he moved is too had tjr most potent smell of wine and was very un level. It was extremely cold as the table was at the door and in a very high traffic area. The manager response to the smell and uncomfortable setup was vague saying "It's the best table in the house" which was an insult to our intelligence. We were in formal attire and the cost to dine at Mr.Chow isn't Chick-Fil-A cost it's real so it's important to be comfortable and not insulted. The smell was unbearable and once we recognized a table leaving that was very comfortable we moved to it and notified management and they agreed. Once comfy we were able to take off our jackets and look amazing in our formal attire and relax and order. They had a pre-set menu special for $80 plus per person where you get to choose multiple appetizers, multiple main courses and several other items. The food was good nothing to write home about but satisfied especially after the fiasco in changing tables 3 times we worked up an appetite. read more
