Lock Chun Restaurant — Restaurant in Santa Clara

Update 12.21.23 took my crew guys here for lunch today, the hot and sour soup was amazing, we had fresh green beans with garlic, chicken chow mein, chicken salad, Mongolian beef and it was all fresh, hot, tasty, a perfect treat to thank our crew for helping us with a great year. Highly recommend Lock Chun they've got some of the best Chinese food I've ever had at a fair price, it's easy to get in and out, doesn't get any better.

My all time favorite Chinese restaurant.

The parking can sometimes be full/challenging, the strip center is a little frumpy, and Lock Chun's space is bland and underwhelming BUTtheir food is amazing, their service is attentive and they will go the extra mile to ensure your happiness.

I'm a big fan of chicken salad and Lock Chun's doesn't disappoint. Just the right balance of lettuce, chicken, peanuts and dressing with a hint of something hot/spicy but not overwhelming. Some restaurants chicken salad is soggy with no taste or personality, NOT HERE.

Their dishes are all fresh and tasty without that heavy oily/soggy experience you often get. I particularly like thier "salted fish" a light, white fish battered and deep fried with a hit of chili pepper and a pinch of sale, always light, fresh and appealing.

Love their stir fried green beans, and hot and sour soup, but truthfully there haven't been any dishes we've ordered over the years that we didn't absolutely love.

Great informal restaurant to take your family for dependable quality, fresh food and comfort food environment. I eat here frequently and would encourage you to...

Stumbled on this gem by accident and it couldn't have been any better.

The staff was kind, friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely amazing and portions were quite generous! We ordered the following:

.Creme cheese won tons: They were deliciously crispy and filled with a very rich cream cheese filling. You could definitely taste the scallions which I personally love.

.Hunan chicken: Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, tossed in an amazing hunan sauce. Not spicy despite the peppers. Couldn't get enough of it, I literally had to stop myself from just continuing to eat until I was finished.

. Combination chow main: We decided on chicken and beef, again an amazing choice. The noodles were exceptionally prepared in a great sauce, they didn't need any soy sauce or anything, they were perfect. The beef was tender but not soggy, cooked to perfection.

I'm obsessed with this place, looks like they do a lot of take-out so don't hesitate to try it out! I will definitely be back, best Chinese restaurant I've found...

Got two dishes for take out, both were terrible.

Peking spare ribs was just thinly sliced pieces of pork in a super sugary batter with no depth of flavor. No spare ribs at all. It was also packed in the cheap paper Chinese to go box, which had no room for steam and made it soggy within 10 mins of picking it up. No pineapple or other veggies or anything.

Seafood combination szechuan style was also very disappointing. There were no szechuan peppers in it at all, even though the menu had a pepper next to the item. Also had very little flavor.

Both these were items on their Chef's Special menu. So we paid $45 (takeout) for mushy sugar meat and bland vegetable...
