Plenty of food for your money with many tasty selections. Delivery is always quick when they deliver! Friendly staff too read more

Really great price and delicious food. Ordered a family meal for four people and it was yummy. Will definitely order again.

Had to give this home delivery a 3 stars because they were really shitty attitude on the phone and rushed the order to get off the phone. I know this was probably their peak time ! The food was not that good when delivered. But I can say when you have time to eat in , they are on point with the cooking of their food, with that being said eat in and they get 4.5 stars .

Bad customer service. Rude staff. Brass manners. Not surprised that the place had only two tables occupied, four customers only.

I don't care how good people think their food is. They are rude as heck. Don't be cheap . Bring on extra people on busy nites so you aren't cranky and rude to your customers. read more

Delicious takeout. Highly recommend! Husband and I ordered the crispy beef , orange chicken, and chicken with string beans. Would recommend all three dishes! read more

Vegan orange chicken is so good everything else is good too. I'm happy they cater to vegan and vegetarians Food always arrives fast and hot and the delivery man is cordial. read more

We have been coming here for years. Tonight we did not have our usual waitress. The waitress we had was rude and just Not friendly. The food was great as usual. But we will not be going here if we don't see our regular waitress Sorry to say this but. It is what it is. read more

Red Lantern - Beef with Broccoli and beef chowmein - Chinese Near Me - Brea, California

Food is good. Chow mein is great. I do have to comment and say to the restaurant, please add tin foil to separate the hot fried foods from the foam take out boxes. The foam melts into the food as evidenced by the inside covers of the styrofoam. I'll only eat there for dine in and will not take out anymore. read more

Great food, good service. Definitely a hole in the wall. I love the honest walnut shrimp.

I ordered noodles & soup at Red Lantern in Brea , August 22 ( which I always do if I feel eating like Chinese foods). The person who delivered my order told me that "next time just pick up the food coz your house is just close. Told him I don't have a car and he told me to walk". God , that guy is so arrogant. Iam ordering food from their restaurant because they do deliver and if not, I will get my food from somewhere nice place. I've been ordering food from different restaurants occasionally and this is the first time I encounter this kind of situation & treatment from a restaurant employee. read more

I was skeptical to actually come here. My coworkers were supposed to take another coworker out for his last day at our job to Red Robin so he can get a beer but that did t happen because the HRat my work is trash but anywayssssss... we came here instead and they have a 7.99 lunch special that includes an egg roll, choice of rice, and an entree and mannnn this food is delicious. It's more on the authentic side so if you think panda is the best you've ever had, keep going there, you probably think McDonald's is a good burger. But if you're looking for some tasty Chinese food, roll thru this spot. Especially in brea. read more

Have eaten here about 5 to 10 times. Its a small hole in the wall but it is clean and pleasant. Food is not bad, tasty and decent portions. Not Americanized like Panda Express but not too authentic like the restaurants in Alhambra/Monterey Park area. It is in my lunch rotation. read more

Absolutely love this place. Tasty food, great customer service and priced just right. Check 'em out...you won't be disappointed

Very rude service !! Food just ok. My family doesn't want to come back here. Very rude, unfriendly !!

Great place to get Chinese food. It's so good and not too greasy. Some places really pile on the grease but Red Lantern is really good about it, even in their fried rice and noodles. I love this place for Chinese. We now love in Anaheim and our first week, I drove back to get Red Lantern because it's that good. They're also so friendly when they deliver, even to my dogs (who are barking) and the delivery guy will just smile and wave to them. read more

Decent food not the best I've ever had but will do. The only negative is the girl at the register is not very friendly, every time I go there she seems overwhelmed and in a hurry. But the food is decent. read more

We have never been at this restaurant and was very happy we went. Super great food and excellent service. Egg rolls were really tasty. Good portions we had to bring food home enjoyed the next day. When I'm In Brea I will revisit this restaurant Enjoy read more

Came a few days ago after I found it on Yelp. I've been desperately looking for a new Chinese food place after my favorite closed down. And when I try a new Chinese place, I always try their orange chicken because if their orange chicken isn't any good, then I'm not interested. As it turns out, theirs is super delicious! The sauce is amazing, and the chicken is cooked well. I also really loved their Honey Walnut Shrimp. I look forward to going back and trying more items on the menu! read more

Okay, I bumped them up to 4-stars because we finally went back after our phone order debacle, and everything went swimmingly this time. I still fear that this has tainted my view of them a little bit, because I've been going to China Wok Fresh a lot more lately. Their food is very similar (if not a little better) than Red Lantern, and so far their customer service has been exceptional. I'll still come back to Red Lantern for the specialty tofu I can't get anywhere else, like kung pao and cashew. But for ma po tofu and hot and sour soup, might as well go somewhere that's quick, efficient, and is willing to customize the order to suit our tastebuds. read more

This is our local Chinese food place. We enjoy it on a regular basis. Family favorite is chicken chow fun.

Love, love, LOVE this place. My boyfriend and I order from this place all the time. A lot of great options. What I love about them is that they offer plenty of vegan options. If you're vegan (or just plant-based or vegetarian) I definitely recommend the vegan orange "chicken". It's my go to. We have never experienced a bad service from any of the workers, and our food is always delicious!! read more

Very clean, and cozy atmosphere! The food was delicious and at an amazing price - definitely love the lunch specials! Also had their hot tea and it was perfect. The server was very kind and hospitable and everything was timely! Definitely will return. read more

I like this spot. I've ordered take out here twice - one time I picked it up and the second time had it delivered. They are very fast, friendly, and the food was great. I love the egg friend rice and the walnut shrimp. I love how they offer different types of friend rice, too! The sizzling rice soup was alright, the broth could have more flavor, but I still enjoyed it. There menu is pretty extensive and depending on what you order it can be a little pricey. My boyfriend and I usually spend around $60 each time we go - four entrees, a soup, and maybe egg rolls. This is also an amazing spot for hangover food ha. read more

I want to start by saying I NEVER leave bad reviews for food places, so this feels strange for me. But I feel like this is necessary. First off, I ordered vegan chicken for myself and sweet and sour chicken for my mama. It wasn't labeled and we couldn't tell the difference. I had my mama try both and she said the orange one had to be vegan since it tasted "funny." I trusted her judgment, tried it myself, and it didn't taste right to me after one bite. I called the place up to ask and it turns out I ate the regular chicken. And after being vegan for three years, you can imagine my stomach did not sit right. My mama and I both ended up nauseous after our meals and had to end up tossing out the rest of our food. And believe us when we say we hate wasting food. I'm sorry, but we will not be returning to Red Lantern. read more

TOTAL GARBAGE SERVICE !!!! called and ordered food, waited over hr and a half then when I called back ..they said it was being delivered any minute. (Bcuz they wrote ORDER FOR PICKUP even though they asked for adress?) Not the first time doing that .. When food got here was ice cold and nasty spent over $70 ..biggest complaint RUDE A.F.!! barley spoke english.. and yelled hold and put on hold for 5 mins Specifically ask them for hot mustard with my shrimp... came to find out they "SAID" apparently they were out and didn't bother to tell me when I ordered... or wouldn't of got the shrimp. VERY CRAPPY SERVICE!!! AND DISRESPECT TO CUSTOMERS WILL AVIOD AT ALL COSTS ..........JUST SAD inside dining is usually good spent over 400 in the last few months. There take out service cost them a Great Customer read more

The worst food I ever order through Yelp. The food was so terrible that my wife refuse to eat it. It is said the food's smell is the first thing that makes it delicious. The smell of our order was so bad that we knew it that we made a bad choice of ordering from here. read more

Great service and delicious food every time we order. Whether it's takeout or delivery the food is always hot and fresh. I highly recommend this place. Best Chinese food in Brea. Thank you for your service. read more

Last time I order online. Grub Hub dictated my order. My order was late, so I inquired where my order was. I had a phone conversation with a person in the Philippines( Literally there were rooster sounds in the background. I kept asking is that a rooster?. And "yes. I am in the Philippines" I was having a conversation with.... What!!?? I am in Fullerton, Ca. So sad !!!!!!!!!! read more

I ordered the fish fillet and black bean sauce lunch special. Normally this would just be a short review about how the restaurant met my expectations and is local enough for me to become a regular. But this is going to be a long review, I've got a bone to pick with you guys. The main fish component from what I ordered tasted great and was the correct proportion size. The fried rice that came with it was kind of basic but also tasted good. The issue I have is I've never gotten too little rice from a Chinese restaurant ever until you guys. Normally a lunch special will come with almost twice as much rice compared to the main dish. But you guys use a container where the rice amount is smaller than the main dish. This boggles my mind. I can understand if I felt like there wasn't enough shrimp in my lunch special, there's obvious cost of issues for expensive ingredients there. But you should never give a customer any reason to dock you for one star for not serving enough rice. Good quality rice is so cheap, even if you're putting work into frying it. I can understand some customers are into their low-carb diet, but I'm a big guy that likes to eat Chinese after working out. I'm going to ask about an extra rice option next time I order. read more
