Chen's Chinese Restaurant

I stopped by Chen’s Chinese Restaurant for their lunch special, and it did not disappoint. The meal came with egg drop soup, an egg roll, steamed rice, and sweet and sour chicken — a great combination and definitely worth the price. The sweet and sour chicken was the standout of the meal. Perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside, and coated in a delicious sauce that wasn’t too heavy or too sweet. It’s easily one of the best versions I’ve had in a long time. The restaurant itself is beautiful, clean, and welcoming. The staff was incredibly friendly, and their customer service made the experience even better.

Seven-year food delivery elderly disabled customer who found one food item unpalatable and unappealing in stark contrast to false and misleading menu picture. When I called with very first complaint, told by young Chinese on phone that he didn’t care if he lost ONE customer after agreeing to my returning refrigerated food next day, then refusing!!

Sunday lunch hour , probably around 4 tables occupied only during the duration between 1:15pm to 2:30pm. First time checking this place out. The place is authentic Chinese style ambience. The taste of the food is good from its mandarin style. The service is somewhat ok too. The reason for the rating is that I don’t feel and see any wow factor from food, service, and atmosphere. If I have similarity of this place, it would probably be the chinese fast food of two combo choices plus an option of chowmen or fried rice or half. Though the Chinese fast food flavor has a better taste than at this location. But then again, that’s only thru my own taste bud and own opinion. Server was nice. The men’s restroom have these odor smell. I think they need to clean up their AC ventilation as it’s not healthy to inhale the air from the restroom itself.

We have been divining here since 2004 and bring all our friends. And then they bring all their friends. The food is superb especially the spicy dishes and aromatic shrimp or fish. We drive from either San Pedro or Santa Monica to come here We highly recommend channels. Also, it is quiet enough most of the time so that you can have a conversation while you dine. I it is not one of those noisy, noisy restaurants.

General Tso and Dumplings are good, average at worst. The orange chicken and rice is fantastic and the honey walnut shrimp is fried. I definitely do not prefer it fried but if that’s your thing it’s pretty good. Staff is super friendly, restraint is clean and quiet, large with a lot of seating.
