When you want this this type of Chinese food. This is the only place you should go. Portions that quell hungers of a village and the nicest and most welcoming staff.

Axel F.

The food was tasty but sauces too thick and sweet. Best eaten fresh and hot and they pile it high but after a while when it cools and sits it turns into a sticky mass of carbs. Service was great the place has a hood classic vibe. Best to eat it there and maybe ask them to not give you so much, it really was a lot but only $9.99 for 2 item combo. Probably just me I guess. Try it at least once .

Orange chicken chow mein and rice

Absolutely one of my favorite spots in Van Nuys! The service is great! The ambiance is very family and friendly! The food is heaping good! Thank you team!!!

Steam table
Henry D.

Huge servings, good flavor, very reasonable value and friendly staff. The staff is happy to give you a sample to help you decide on ordering. The seasoning is slightly different than typical steam table Chinese Take-out establishments. The OK Chinese chow mein and fried rice tasted a bit sweeter. The serving sizes are so large that we decided to order the Combo B with double Orange Chicken and half and half, chow mein and fried rice, a couple of fried prawns, a couple of fried chicken wing pieces and won ton soup. All of the food feed 4 us and we were full. The orange chicken pieces are tender, good sized pieces and nicely fried with a good batter and sauce. The shrimp and chicken both had a nice crunch and very light on seasoning. The won ton dumplings don't have a lot of taste but they give you a ton of veggies, shrimp and pork in the broth. There was so much extra tender pork that we ended up making pork fried rice with the extra meat. This will be our go to Chinese steam table restaurant when we are in town. Excellent value, huge portions such that the food is squeezing out of the containers, good service and good Chinese fast food. If you are craving fast Chinese food that is tasty and a great value restaurant for multiple people or a large group, go here, don't miss out.

Half Fried Rice / Half Chow Mein

Yelp, YouTube, & TikTok made me try this place;). Food portions is incredible and HUGE! Can definitely be shared between two people! I ended up not finishing it and saved it for the next day. Chinese food in general doesn't always reheat well. If you're one person going to Ok Chinese in Van Nuys, one item plate is enough, but if you want the two item, definitely eat all the fried rice and save the Chow Mein for reheating. I got the Kung Pao & Orange chicken. Overall good, but needed a bit more flavor however it wouldn't stop from going back. I did notice a smoky type flavor which I couldn't tell where it came from. It's different. Not bad but not great either. I think this place is Mexican run and I like the Hispanic influence over the cooking! The employees there were really nice! They do accept credit cards. Probably the next time I go, it will be the Orange Chicken & Chow Mein. I really liked the Chow Mein! That surprised me a lot and the texture of the Orange Chicken is really good as well just needs a bit more Citrus sweet flavor:). Kung Pao Chicken okay. Would try something else next time. All in all, it's definitely worth your time to check out. The portions are worth the price. I wish Panda Express would give these portions.

I saw a post regarding this place and decided to stop by to try them out, the post I saw showed that they were very generous with their portions, I can confirm that they do serve humongous portions that you can just barely close the lid of the food Container. I ordered the chow mien/fried rice with spicy pork and 3pcs fried chicken wings, I love the spicy pork, the fried rice and chow mien were also good. They have other foods I have to try out. The servers were friendly and professional The dining area feels kinda divey but functional and clean, I came in around 5:30pm, not sure of their operating hours. I looked for and didn't see a sign stating their hours, I wish they have a self serve soda fountain instead of selling them by the can.

Combo B
Vanessa P.

The food was OK. Greasy, not horrible but not the best. Definitely have tried out worse spots. The chicken was too small. Overall, the food was OK but I would not go back.

Jessica

Thank you ok china for the amazing food. I love this restaurant so much i been coming there for 20 years. Best Chinese restaurant in town

Orange chicken/fried chicken/chow mein/ fried rice
Christian K.

My mom was scrolling through Facebook and found this place, a lot of people were saying it's so good and the portion sizes are huge. So the rational thing to do, is we had to go try it out and see for ourselves. We ordered two combo plates, orange chicken, kung pao chicken, fried chicken, with fried rice and chow mein. Also, got a large wonton soup. To be honest, this place was okay and nothing spectacular. The portions were absolutely huge!! Literally filled to the brim with food, spilling out the sides. The service was good.

Orange chicken, noodles, fried rice (One entree combo)
Kaelin A.

The serving sizes here are absolutely insane!!! I think my jaw actually dropped when they were putting my order together. Service was quick and friendly. The food tasted good! I really liked their orange chicken and noodles. If you want fast food Chinese food, this will definitely satisfy your craving. There are a few tables inside. it is in a plaza and there's a parking lot, but it is very small and packed.

Two items combo : spicy chicken and pepper chicken

Do they still just Cash only?

I will say call them just to get the most accurate answer. When I went like 3 weeks ago I didn't see any notice about cash only but I did read other people reviews that said bring cash. So I had both cash and card, I paid with cash in the end

Is it still cash only?

No they accept credit cards now

What's the potato and beef dish called in this place?

You mean potato and chicken?

. Did they raise the price for a combo plate? I went there yesterday and the charged me over 8 dollars. It was only a little over 6 dollars before.?

This review is only regarding the posted hours versus what I experienced upon arrival…read more I had a long day at work and was really looking forward to treating myself to what's rated as the best Chinese food in the area. I even drove a bit out of my way to come here, only to find a "closed" sign on the door. I truly hope everything is okay with the owners and staff, but it was disappointing that there wasn't any notice or backup plan for unexpected closures. From what I could see through the window, the restaurant looked very clean and well-kept. I'll definitely want to try again another time but will certainly call first!!!!

It is not Frankensteins intention to be negative here today. But wholly Yelp hype Batman! Yes,…read moreFrankenstein can buy into a good hype every so often which the Bride of Frankenstein enjoys pointing out. Especially when Frankenstein is wrong. Frankenstein enjoys braised beef noodle soup. A lot. Frankenstein's heart was yanked out of his huge body and crushed when Mandarin Deli went out of business during Covid. A pain he still feels even today. They had the best Braised Beef Noodle Soup ever! Frankenstein went hook, line, and sinker when he read the Yelp hype about this place. Bottom line, nice people, not as awesome as was described. Braised Beef Noodle Soup- Sorry Noodles Kitchen but it's too chili hot. About a 8.5 to 9 on Frankensteins too hot scale. Beef was okay, not great. Noodles were good. Bride of Frankenstein had one taste and pushed it away. "Mucho Caliente" Orange Chicken, fine. Let's not go overboard everyone. Pan Fried Dumplings, good. Check it out for yourself. 10/11/2025 Update- It saddens Frankenstein to see so many fake reviews over and over again. Really Noodles Kitchen? Please.

Came for dinner. We got there around 6p on a week night and it was not full yet but was packed when…read morewe left. Upon entry there is a takeout area where you can order hot meat dishes and to go menu or dine in. We got complimentary hot tea when seated. The interior is a bit dated compared with other restaurants of this type but the food was delicious. We got duck and preserved egg porridge, scrambled egg with shrimp, and a two bbq combo plate of char siu and roast pork. The porridge came out fast and delicious! We ate with the chili and white paper available at the table. Next came the scrambled egg and shrimp. We actually ordered the version with rice, not the entree so the servers got us some rice but missing the gravy. Lastly came the bbq combo plate. We thought it would arrive first since the meats were all ready to go in the takeout area. It came with some hoisin sauce. The char siu was tasty. The roast pork however was not as crispy and kinda mealy so the sauce helped.

I love Sam Woo. I have been coming here for years. Over the years the prices have gone up a lot…read more When I first started coming here, entrées were between 13 and $15 a serving. Now those same entrées are $20 and up I used to be able to order four dishes for around 45 to $50. Today I spent 65 for three entrées and it's barely enough for two people. The servings have gotten a lot smaller over the years. I understand the price of food has gone up. So I expect to pay higher prices. But if I'm gonna pay $20 an entrée, I expect to have a full meal for two people at least. And this was not that. The flavor is still excellent. And the service is bare none. I visited the takeout bar so I didn't have a lot of ambience. But the restaurant was crowded as usual. If they give us a little bit more food for the money, I'll be happy to give them a five star rating. Because I think they're worth it.

So we decided to give them a try. WORST. CHINESE FOOD. EVER!!! There are cheap Chinese fast food takeout that are way more delicious than they are. Their food is about as below average as those cheap bad Chinese fast food takeout. The noodles and steamed rice smelled like old burlap sack! The food we ordered either had no taste, not tasty at all, or it smelled. My mom and I swore we'd never go back. A couple of weeks ago, I was craving fried noodles. I don't know why I decided to give them a try again. What a waste of money!!! One thing improved, I guess... At least the noodles didn't smell like old burlap sack. As for taste... zero, nothing, bland AF and to top it all off, the noodles were over cooked so it's mushy!!! Seriously a Chinese restaurant who can't cook noodles??? WTH??? Anyway... It was disgusting! I ate a few bites, threw away the rest. What a waste of money!!! I don't know who keeps giving them praises for their food. May be those people just don't know any better and they've never had any good Chinese food. Golden City is definitely a "HELL NO! Never again!!!" for me. Perhaps it's because I'm Chinese that I hold a higher standard, but seriously... this place was disgustingly inedible!

Very honest opinion: Not sure if I'm eating the same food as everyone else leaving reviews here,…read morebut I got the signature beef (Lanzhou) noodle soup combo and it was incredibly disappointing~mediocre. Server guy was chill. The food is served in a paper bowl, unlike the nice bowls you see in their pics. Tl;dr: if you're curious, don't waste your time, bafang is open 5min away Preface: I KNOW it's mall food, but for a restaurant that continuously pops up as #1 on Yelp whenever I search for food around the northridge/chatsworth area, I'm going to treat it as if it were a #1 spot. Beef noodle soup: to be very blunt, this was quite flavorless. The beef was dry as bones and looked like it was sliced with a mandoline. The noodles seemed undercooked and it felt like I was eating al dente spaghetti noodles. I got a medium spice level which didn't even seem that spicy, just a lot of cough inducing chili oil with no burn. Pan fried dumplings were ok. It honestly tasted like it was deep fried and not pan fried. Unsweetened black tea: hands down the best of the 3 things in the combo, which is quite telling. Honestly you get a decent amount of food for $15. But to constantly take the top 5 for recommended on Yelp in this area and waste my time to even look at it, it definitely doesn't belong remotely close to top 10.
