China Express Restaurant — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Came back again!! Twice in 3 days!! 🤭🤭🤭🤭 Don't underestimate this place just because its not flashy like Panda Express.

I came here quite often just to get my favorite spicy salt chicken wings that I looooved so much! Sometimes I got the teriyaki chicken, char siew pork, orange chicken etc their foods taste were good.

A few days ago, I was craving for their chicken wings with fried rice. Then I saw they have spicy fried shrimps (I never saw fried shrimps cooked this way before, here or anywhere else!). The lady; Amanda offered me two shrimps to taste. I got in my car and tried the shrimps... I was blown away!! It was REALLY GOOD!

(I know most people don't eat whole shrimps with the shells and heads still on. I didn't mind that! Its a matter of preference. Not a right or wrong thing to be argued about 🤣🤣🤣)

Anyways... tonight, I came back again for fried rice and two sides of chicken wings and an order of the spicy shrimps. They were hesitating in selling me the shrimps, and said they were a bit on the dryer side, and offered to cook a new batch for me. I said; no! I like the food dry! 🤭

Since its almost closing time, the owner/chef told the server to sell me all the remaining shrimps with discount! How amazingly sweet was that?? 💖

I gave part of the shrimps to me BFF. Within 30 minutes, she sent me the picture of the remaining of the shrimps shells 🤣🤣🤣 she loved it a lot too!!

Highly recommended to others!

Plenty of free parking spaces in a big parking lot, shared with other restaurants and Smart & Final.

Accessible with guests on wheelchairs. Plenty of kids...

The restaurant is very small with a few tables, but is clean, though decor is dated. The serving and cashier lady is very friendly and helpful. The food though was disappointing, as Both of my Chicken entrees tasted Exactly the same even though they were different, (orange chicken and mushroom chicken). The fried rice needed lots of soy sauce and sriracha, as it tasted pretty Bland and had no color and the chow mein noodles were just fair, as there was no noticeable vegetable garnish seasoning with them. The wonton soup was really good though loaded with vegetables and plump wontons and seasoned well. Food portions...

Ordered BBQ pork and teriyaki chicken. My first bite of pork I thought to myself hmm that tasted a tad bit off but oh well took another bite...big mistake. This overwhelming DISGUSTING TASTE took over and I literally gagged so hard the food shot back out of my mouth. The smell of the meat now was just horrendous and rancid after having bit into to it a few times. I tried the teriyaki which was hella bland and had a huge layer of fatty skin underneath. Needless to say almost $9 straight to the trash. Place looks a bit sketchy which typically you get the best grub from, well this was NOT the case. My stomach...
