37 Best Chinese Restaurants in Rosemead

“Excellent food and great service. Family owned and my favorite local eatery. Please try it.“

“Service was fast, friendly and very helpfull....food was also great by the way. I came on a weekend and it was very busy and had to wait but still was well worth it.“

“Good Alley is a welcome addition to the area for authentic dumplings! If you're craving traditional Xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), this place is an excellent choice. As someone with high standards for soup dumplings, my all-time favorites are Ma Ma Lu and Thumbling in West Covina. I’d say the soup dumplings here are slightly better than Thumbling's, with fresh, high quality ingredients and a rich, flavorful broth. In addition to the soup dumplings, the Beef Rolls and Sichuan Dan Dan noodles are fantastic and worth trying.

I’m deducting one star for the price-to-portion ratio. The portions are small, and the prices are on the higher side, so you may feel like the value isn't quite there. However, the pricing is still more reasonable than Ding Tai Fung, so it balances out a bit.

Quick tips: This place gets packed during lunch and dinner hours. Use the tablet at the entrance to sign up for a table. Be prepared for a potentially long wait.
You can scan a QR code on your table to start ordering on your phone, but payments can't be made directly via the QR code. To finalize your bill, you'll need to review it on the tablet and confirm the total with tips included. When the server brings the tablet for you to pay, ensure you don’t tip twice. Always double-check the final receipt to avoid accidental overpayment.“

“This is a small independent shop that only does take out. Nothing fancy.

I came on a Sunday and the parking was packed. There are other shops and a supermarket as well. People do park and go rather quickly, though.

If you spend more than $20, you won't be charged a $1 fee. They only accept mastercard and visa; otherwise, pay cash.

Dim sum items are typically under $5. They sell other items/dishes for more and also specialty drinks.
I ordered $58 worth of dim sum and tried some in the car. I was happy with my order.

If you like cheap and decent dim sum, this place is it. Customers seem to love this place. There was a long line when I was here, and they kept refilling the food trays quickly.“

“Great food and new location!“

“Good dim sum, good service-polite, efficient. Large sized taro fried dumpling. Skin (wrap) to shrimp dumpling is thin, with nice chew. Good flavors, not so salty. Good value. 7 dishes $52. Beautiful setting. Nice glass enclosed banquet room.“

“Wild soft-shell turtle is moist and nourishing and you will get a different experience if you supplement once a month; straw mushroom, cordyceps and oxtail soup, the essence of the soup that has been simmered for more than three hours, will leave you with endless aftertaste; double pepper bullfrog, geoduck and loofah soup, Grilled chicken feet with seafood and mushrooms, lettuce, Dong'an chicken... Every dish is prepared by the chef himself, and the taste is so authentic that you won't be able to stop eating.
Xi Xiangyu: I regret not coming, I regret even more if I come, I regret not coming earlier~“

“It's definitely not exactly cheap, but the food is pretty good. I usually go earlier during the night, it definitely gets busier later. I like the crispy pork.

Parking: The entrance / exit is quite tight, and the parking often runs out by the time it gets late.“

“LOVEDDDD the red chili oil wontons! LOVED. I always try this dish where restaurants serve it in hopes of finding the ONE style I like - here it’s very close to the Din Tai Fung style with less sugar and a better price. They also use a good handmade wonton with delicious filling. A lot of places mess up on their use of wontons and sauce.

LOVED the lamb noodle soup!! I generally love lamb across the board, and they do it really well here - clear broth style, hand made noodles, no gamey taste/smell (so my mom says as she can be more sensitive to it). Greaaat price.“

“So many great dishes in one spot. Come for the Peking duck, stay for the cold chili chicken, pork pancake, fried pumpkin, and plenty of fantastic vegetable dishes.

Staff were attentive. Restaurant felt clean and well lit although pretty cozy given how many people were dining. Parking lot situation can be a zoo around dinner time, so be prepared to wait.

Parking: Lot fills up quickly around dinner time

Kid-friendliness: Provided high chairs“

“(Translated by Google) The oysters are amazing, the palm is so big, and it is still fresh! Never eaten anywhere else! So delicious, must come! ! !(Original)生蚝 绝了，手掌那么大， 还很新鲜！别的地方绝对没有吃过！太好吃了一定要来！！！“

“We had a large party dining here and they were very accommodating for such a large crowd. The service was fine and the dishes were excellent. Unlike other Chinese food restaurants that taste as though the same sauce is used on all of the dishes, Here the sauces were varied and delicious. The portions were large and everyone enjoyed their meal. I never saw the final bill so I can't comment on bang for your buck.
Will go back again without reservation

Kid-friendliness: Three kids were in our group and they had their own colorful bowls and utensils.“

“Being a big fan of Szechuan food, have tried many similar
restaurants, this is my favorite place, good price, high quality of food and service, the nicest thing is that we liked all the dishes we ordered thanks to the fine cooking, will come again, they do take credit payment.“

“I've been here a few times and I don't have any negative things about this place, the food is great, the service is okay even though the place was full of people and they still can serve you with a good attitude. I highly recommend it ?“

“I guess pandemic era review: 04/01/2022(Sorry for the photo quality, there's a thick plastic barrier in the way, then Google downscales the quality after that)My family has been visiting here for decades.The lady is nice.They are willing to make a custom order for me that's not on the menu at all.The prices are good.The food tatses great.The servings are generally good.I've never had problems.Small family business.My usually places are kind of far, so I have them make me fried eggs with tomatoes :)Very unknown restaurant unless you go out of your way to find small restaurants, or frequently shop at the grocery store inside the building. The restaurants here should get more attention, I hope people see my review(s).I would suggest either choosing from the menu or knowing Chinese to order; English may or may not be understood. I simply have a clear picture of what I want made :) The daughter usually isn't here to help take orders, from what I've noticed.I have them make me fried egg with tomatoes because my usually place(s) are kind of far :)This place is in an area with lots of other adjacent restaurants. The restaurants I've tried have been good, but this is the place I frequently find myself at.“

“Staff was absolutely helpful and kind! The Decor and table set ups looked beautiful and family friendly. We ordered the Chow Fun with Veggies and the House Special Prawns. Chow fun was perfect! When I say it was the best prawns I’ve ever had, it was the best prawns I’ve ever had. They have something special here and I would recommend 10/10.“

“The price of the meal is reasonable, and each noodle dish tastes authentic. The sesame sauce of the miscellaneous sauce noodles is thick. I especially recommend the beef burrito, which has a lot of beef and is fragrant. The fried pork buns are very suitable for takeout.“

“Zheng Shang Xian 蒸上鲜 offers reasonably priced Chinese food in a comfortable and inviting environment. In addition to the tasty dishes, diners can enjoy delightful Chinese music that enhances the atmosphere, creating a relaxing dining experience. The restaurant also serves refreshing icy lemon water, making it a refreshing stop for casual meals or group gatherings. Overall, the combination of delicious food, pleasant ambiance, and soothing music makes it a great choice for Chinese cuisine.“

“the decor of the style presented as the restaurant is welcoming and inviting which was why my family who frequents this restaurant often with her friends recommended this place to me too“

“Excelente comida bien atendidos todo excelente selos Recomiendo“

“Came to place because I like the confidence.

It's a a good noodle house, one of the better ones been too. Good combo of soup and noodles flavor was all on point.

The service was great, and for the price you get a good amount of food.“

“Best authentic Chinese food I've had in socal. In addition to the cheap prices, the portion sizes are absolutely loaded too. Just look at how much fried rice and red braised pork belly we got!!! Really recommend if you're trying to find some good and cheap chinese food.“

“This is a newly opened restaurant, so the environment inside the store is very clean and the furniture looks new. There are not too many choices on the menu. The Hainanese Chicken Rice is very tasty, but the chicken is slightly less umami. The Bamboo Shoots and Chicken Soup Noodles have a sweet soup base, which is worth a try.“

“Consistently the best roast duck (not to be confused with Peking duck) even in SGV (San Gabriel Valley). Always juicy, tender, and amazingly tasty. We only take out from this store, but we do it regularly. I have no idea what the service is like or the physical plant, as my wife is always the one to go in to get the duck. Oh, the chicken chow fun dry is also consistently tasty, generous, with tender pieces of chicken. I don't know if chicken chow fun is even on the menu. Most places only list beef chow fun, but if you ask for chicken at Sam Woo, you get a very tasty dish.“

“Good ole traditional egg noodles. I ate at this restaurant 20 years ago and i left California for close to 20 years. I came back and had breakfast kind of lunch, I ordered the same things 20 years ago that I have ordered, the food is still good and fantastic“

“One of the local spots for noodle soup! All sorts of combinations. The infamous house special noodles, your choice wet or dry. Pick the type of noodles you fancy. Other well known is their fried dough with eggs, omelette typed, served with chopped onions and salted/fermented dry radish bits. The hot chili/satay sauce is so good to go along with any of the noodle dishes.

Parking: Parking in the back and along side the restaurant.“

“I just picked up an order for 60 people on time and delicious. Misa and his Team even loaded it all in my car! The online ordering experience e was simple and easy. The pickup time was 12:45 but I called Misa before they opened (yes he answered before 9:30) and he assured me that I could pick it up at 11:15. This is the 3rd occasion that I’ve ordered catering from this store. It’s always clean and staffed by happy people. I’ll be back!“

“I was walking around my air bnb neighbourhood and found this cute little restaurant. the waitress was such a sweetheart, very kind and efficient. She made the best Vietnamese ice coffee to! Will be back one day when I’m back in cali!“

“Food is delicious and big portions lots of food I like it 👍“

“#54 fish with the special sauce is the gem of the menu - its always perfectly crispy and flavorful! I would suggest getting the larger fish if sharing with 2+ people. Restaurant owner and staff were very friendly and welcoming! Do yourself a favor and eat here next time you’re craving something delicious.“

“Special dishes. Tastes great. And price 😌 is good.“

“Had a Taro Milk Tea. Satisfies a craving and not too bad for the price. Have been here years so familiar with the drinks and they won't be a must have. Just moreso convenient and accessible. Keep in mind they prefer cash, using credit requires a $.50 charge.

Parking: Small plaza. But decent amount of parking for a quick stop.“

“Portion was good. Parking good and restaurant very spacious!“

“I just just opened a bag of the ground pork original flavor and consumed the whole 12oz bag in two days! A tad sweet & sticky for me, texture was Great though! Ordered three more 12oz bags to try the other flavors?“
