China Chef Express — Restaurant in Long Beach

I grew up eating home made Chinese food every day. My friends know if they ask me to pick a restaurant, 9 out of 10 times it'd be a Chinese place. With all that said, I surprised myself when I found out how much I enjoyed the food here. Every time I come here, I am always the only Asian customer...but hey I need to get my westernized Chinese food fix once in a while.

No, the food here is not authentic. But it doesn't mean it's not delicious. Compared to Panda Express, this place gives you at least 50-100% MORE food in a two-item combo AND at a lower price AND with a free egg roll and a small soda. I'm slightly addicted to their teriyaki chicken...which tastes nothing like what is sold in a good Japanese restaurant, but incredibly yummy nonetheless. Other good choices are orange chicken and fried chicken wings. The cheap ass in me always ends up getting all chow mein as the starch, so I could save it for the next few days. The two meat entrees can be enjoyed over the next 2-3 meals as well since they give you such generous portions. This might be the best Chinese fast food joint I've...

I hate to write this review because I have been going here for years but this experience was different. The food was bland and everyone had a upset stomach’s. There was a piece of hair fried into the shrimp and was found all the way down in the box about 3/4th down and i asked the woman particularly for smaller pieces of chicken and she ignored me like she didn’t understand but when I asked them why are they charging me so much for extra shrimp then her English became perfect. So it let me know she feels she didn’t have to satisfy the customer because she acts like she doesn’t understand. I was really shocked at the overall situation because as I said I have been going here since a child hence the 3 stars and not 1. The food quality, health of the customer and sanitation is the most important thing when dealing in restaurants. I can get over the attitude or...

I have been coming here many years cuz I like the food. I stopped in today and was disappointed. Cuz the lady who did my plate barely put any teriyaki and orange chicken so I asked for extra in which I was charged an extra $1.00. I hate when they measure the food. They are charging almost $9.00 a plate so they shouldn't be stingy with the portions. Omg they have even downsized the drinks. I am gonna start coming here every blue moon.I am adding additional comments because this place is not as good as rhey use to be as far as service. They are a bit arrogant..God...
