The inconvenience of only taking cash. And the blandest Lo mein noodles I've had in quite a while.

Everything from the service to the food & the prices hands down my new favorite go to! Very clean & the customer service is great! 10/10 recommend! read more

Really amazing Chinese food ! Not greasy at all and very very fresh ! This was our first time , recommended by our cousins who are San Diego natives and it did not dissapoiny. Large portions , we ordered the wings , and 4 plates of orange chicken , beef broccoli with chow mein and even brought a plate home since there was so much left over read more

quick service, fresh food, always delicious! Highly recommend. We normally order garlic wings, and white rice trays.

Great value hole in a wall takeout Chinese food takeout spot. Owners are friendly and pack your combo box to the point it won't close properly. A two item combo was under $10, a great deal for what you get. I got orange chicken/salt and pepper chicken with half rice/half noodles. I liked the orange chicken and noodles. Orange chicken was crispy and juicy while the noodles was spongy and flavorful. The fried rice was a bit plain and the wings a little on the dry side. Overall great takeout for the price. read more

They were closed a few days ago because they failed reinspection for vermin I stopped by when they were to be open and it was just a sign on the door that said closed. I saw employees in there so I was a bit confused. Did some digging and came across the county sight for weekly restaurant closures that didn't pass inspection or reinspections. read more

You cannot beat the price of $2.99 per each individual item. They have 20 items on the menu. You can also order party trays of half or full. When you walk in, there were about 12 items on display like a deli. We got 3 items: half and half, orange chicken and chicken teriyaki. All for under $10 with tax. The portions were huge. I did not find the quality or taste to be great. Dry rice, chicken teriyaki was also dry and bland. Could just be the items we got because our friends seem to like this place. Regardless, you can't beat the price! read more

Holy crap! Chinese food entrees still at a price I remember when I was in my 20s back in the early 90s! Keeping in mind because of the low prices, Cash Only! But just have a $10 or $20 bill handy, it'll feed two to possibly 4 but still very reasonable if you go over. They have most of the popular favorites, beef, pork, chicken- spicy, sweet or just seasoned. Even a fish or shrimp dish I can't remember, fried rice, chow mein, etc. Place is basically a takeout joint, in a busy strip mall, but since we were in the area, we took a chance to try and wished it was a lot closer to our home - quality takeout Chinese food is hard to find between Temecula and San Diego back county (meaning towards Ramona). And especially those prices! Definitely keeping this in mind if the mood swings us to long scenic drives just to get Chinese food fix on. We do have another choice Chinese food place in Escondido but it's just as bad driving the long winding one way mountain roads just to get there:( Service was fast, as it gets crowded and ambience is like that of typical old school greasy spoon takeout hole in the wall. I dig it. read more

Honestly, 86 Panda Express immediately. Ingredients are fresher, portions are BIGGER, service is nicer, and it's a small business instead of a corporate chain. There are no chairs/tables, so no dining in, just takeaway, but it's so small that there's no place to eat in anyway. The garlic wings are excellent, noodles are heaped & piled high, and the orange chicken is always hot & fresh. The veggies are fresh, chicken/beef is tasty, and overall much better value & quality for Chinese takeout. read more

Yummy food. Always fresh. Only thing is cash only. I wonder what they will do in the year 4545

DO NOT GO HERE!!! Because This is my spot!!! To many of y'all who are not from around here try and come through and get a plate and have to run out because it's CASH ONLY.... When it it come to 99 cent Beijing Express has been holding it down for years and years they are one of the OG Daygo spots!! Best salt and pepper chicken wings you can get that are by at a Chinese restaurant! The only thing I am sad about is the Fish!!! BRING THE FRIED FISH BACK!!!!! You guys don't understand this place used to have the largest pieces of fried fish in the world. Like it didn't even fit in the container sometimes they had to put it in it's own bag!! It was so him the fried it just lie the salt and pepper wings!!! But one day they said we don't have anymore... and I thought they meant for the day... nope it's been gone ever since (I'm crying right now seriously) Any way if you know you know if you don't stay out.!!! read more

The food is great, but the only thing that I didn't like was. It's only cash. They don't take debit and also they don't give hot sauce. read more

Beijing Express - Orange chicken, chow mein and rice - Chinese Near Me - La Mesa, California

Fast service and u dont have to get a whole plate of rice and noodles and having to pick another entree. I just wanted my broccoli and beef and orange chicken and was done. Its was 2-3$ an item and thats it. read more

One word to describe this place would be WOW..! This place is great. I used to come here a long time ago years and years ago. I totally forgot about it because I left the country for five years. I'm back and been back for about 13 years and been eating here again for about two can't believe I forgot about it pretty much. Everything is great and it's freshly made try everything highly recommended. Just don't try to flirt with my girlfriend. that's there. Well she doesn't know. She's my girlfriend.. lol read more

A hole-in-the-wall, Chinese takeout shop that's churning out decent food at affordable prices for the locals. I hardly ever use cash anymore, but wanted to try this cash-only place given the rave reviews. Don't get confused by the old photos and reviews that say $1.49 or $2.69 per item. That was before everything became expensive, and they would be out of business if they kept that price. It's just shy of $3.50 per item now (October 2025), which is still quite reasonable, especially considering the huge portions they heap on to the takeout box. I got the chow mein, orange chicken, and garlic chicken (fried chicken). All three items were delicious. Were they the best ever, to die for? No. But it was solid, and I've definitely had worse that was way more expensive. The friendly lady at the counter is working as fast as she can, but don't expect chain fast food speeds. Contrary to some reviews, they will give you hot sauce (sriracha) and chili oil if you ask. This may not be a place that I go out of my way to visit again, but would be a contender for a dependable, quick bite if I'm in the area. read more

This used to be my favorite spot to go to for Chinese food but honestly it's not the best anymore! Recently went to order a plate of noodles, beef & broccoli , and salt & pepper chicken I was very disappointed, the chicken had no flavor & was very dry.I got more cabbage than noodles & the spring rolls were overcooked. They keep raising the prices but the food quality is going down, I don't get that. The service is okay read more

Beijing Express - Noodles, beef broccoli & salt pepper chicken - Chinese Near Me - La Mesa, California

I was in the area on the weekend and wanted Chinese food. This place had 4 stars so I figured I would drop by. As soon as I walk in, I see cash only... of course. Luckily there's a Dollar Tree right next door. The food overall was good, except for the teriyaki chicken. I should have known better looking at it. It was just a bunch of cut up chicken in a very thin looking sauce, that was just so watery. The sweet crispy chicken, fried rice and chow mien were all very tasty and a 2-item combo for $9 is unheard of now lol, so I will come back and update my review by not getting the teriyaki chicken... read more

It's 2025 and this place is "CASH ONLY." I guess they don't want any business. I walked right out the door.

LOVE this place! Our family has been coming here for years - more than 20, is the best that I can remember! The two main ladies serving are no nonsense - they're there to get you in and out with your food - but they really are sweet. They both call my mom, "Mama." They are extremely generous in their portions, which are now $2.39 each, which is STILL a bargain in comparison to any Chinese restaurant. My mom's favorite is the orange chicken, my husband's is the garlic chicken, and I like the whole fried shrimp (the head is the best part!). They have a variety of Chinese-American staples. Actually, we haven't had anything we didn't like there so try everything! There are a couple of disabled parking spots in front of the store. They have a few tables to eat there - one inside and two outside, but they're mainly designed for take-out. There are no stairs to climb up/down. They've become a take-out staple in our household; maybe they'll become one of yours too! read more

Came here today for the first time and after eating this I must say that it was allright. I'll come back again. read more

I recently placed an catered order with them for pick up. The food was freshly made upon pick up. The ladies working that day were friendly. Only thing that took one star from my review is that parking is an issue there. Overall the cleanliness is good. read more

The vibe is a straight up Chinese take out & I love it! The service is fast and both chicken wings they offer is 10/10!

This place brings back memories! I always came here when I lived in casa de oro and spring valley! The aunty here who always has makeup on is my favorite staff member. She has become a legit aunty to me, so endearing and telling me I need to eat more! I order a lot and always share with family! Their food is so savory and the sweetness of the orange chicken is bomb! I know the owner and in fact the food quality has never been inconsistent here! They work hard for this food to be good:) read more

They been here 30 and they are doing something right. Yeah that's the food lol Love this place highly recommend to everybody. Very fresh and great quality food on the real.

Panda who? LOL but in all seriousness this place is my all time favorite Chinese food spot I've ever had. The chow mein is so flavorful. The orange chicken was freshly made and wow was it amazing. The only downside is that they only accept cash so it's always a mission to go to an ATM and grab cash but other than that, service: GREAT food: GREAT prices : GREAT I got 2 packed plates of food for $17!!! read more

Loads of food, delicious at only 3$ a scoop. Takeout only. Very nice employee and helpful.

Beijing Express not only came through, but DELIVERED on Super Bowl Sunday! I called them same day at 2:15pm, asking for a party tray of S&P wings, and fried rice and it was ready to pick up at 2:45pm. Keep in mind the game started at 3:30pm! The S&P wings were AMAZING. So many people said it was still crunchy during halftime and that says a lot! Most wings when sitting for a little get soggy, but not these ones. So many places dropped the hat on SB Sunday not delivering on orders placed, well, not this place. This is going to be our go-to place now for party trays of food. Next time, we'll be sure to order in advance :,) Come check it out and support your local businesses! read more

They are CASH ONLY. Great food, good portions, and surprisingly great price. The chicken wings were super crunchy. Super nice staff that remembers you the next visit even though there was a long line. That's good service right there. read more
