Chan Kee - Breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

Have been coming here for their porridge since this location first opened and generally had pleasant experiences... but it looks like things have taken a drastic change for some reason and the latest visit was beyond disappointing. To start off, there was only one person at the store and he was handling everything with zero time management skill. Pickup time continuously got delayed and I had to wait over 30 minutes at the store from the initial pickup time. Then the porridge, omg-- seriously what happened? It was so bland and looked as if they have poured water over some rice powder... like they don't care. As others have mentioned, this location really is not even worth a star. read more

== FOOD == I got the rice noodles with youtiao. Super delicious. I saw the picture for a satay beef noodles and it looked so good, so I'll get it next time. == SERVICE == There's not many staff inside, just one girl who was manning the kitchen area. It's all mostly self-serve ordering at a kiosk, or ordering with the QR code at your table. == AMBIANCE == I was the only customer inside waiting for my food. Most orders were to-go and I saw many drivers come in to pick up food. read more

We ordered and waited more than 30 min for 2 soups, 2 drinks. Not recommend when crowded. Our second order was chicken kaarage and 1 watermelon juice. Ordered at 1155 AM and now 1243 and still not ready. I asked and they said it got backlogged while everyone else that ordered after me got it first. 48 min. Is that acceptable to you? For one fried chicken and one juice? read more

The experience from Chan Kee years ago is very different from Chan Kee in 2025. They used to have a long line out the door, but now it's pretty easy to get a seat. You go in, choose a table and you can either order at the kiosk or from your phone using the Toast QR code. It's a little bit difficult to order when you need to find certain items, and sometimes they run out of the beepers and you have to call over a person. We had the chicken congee, chow mein, rice noodles, and fried crueller. The best thing on the menu was the chicken congee. Everything else we either did not finish or ate because we felt like we had to since we paid for it. Would go back to order the chicken congee and nothing else. The chow mein was heavy on the soy sauce and the noodles were off. The rice noodles had sauce that tasted weird that you do not typically put on hk-style rice noodles. Would not drive more than 5 mins to be there. The staff was pretty nice. You could tell that they were super busy and running behind because the tray area was so crowded people could barely bus their tables. read more

Great food and taste with worse value by price increases. Poor pick up experience, with little people to help you. They have thier own app but can't read the pick up time right have to wait over 20 minutes from when the order was suppose to be done and counting. Immature app and pick up not ready for prime time. Empty restaurant makes you wonder if this place is going down. read more

Sometimes I can overlook the service a little if the food was just out of this world. I can't remember if I saw this on a food vlog or just spotted it on Yelp, so I bookmarked it. We were in the Walnut area and our other restaurants were closed on a Monday, so it was perfect timing to try Chan Kee. Never ever being here, I didn't know what to expect or how they operate. They had a sign on their procedure, but it was not prominent to me that I didn't notice it. When we walked in, it seemed as you just seat yourself and they had menus on the table. They had a lunch specials menu and breakfast all day menu. We took a minute to look at the menu and once decided I went to the staff member and he pointed me to the counter where they had the Kiosk's which I thought the guy would ask me if I needed help or had any questions. Nope, no customer service at all. I had a difficult time trying to find the things I want on the kiosk, it turns out the lunch specials were done and the all day breakfast is not available all day. So the guy gives me a different menu and the options were a bit different. Finally got my order in after 20! Minutes and I'm glad it didn't ask me for a top option. I was happy to see that they have a small sign that says No Tipping Please. Definitely not. Got our orders in a timely manner, but we had to pick it up at the counter. We ordered the Porridge, the pork chop bolognese with spaghetti and deep fried oysters. Fortunately for Chan Kee, the food was not terrible. The porridge was a little thick, but it was flavorful. Not sure if I'd come back but they do have other items worth trying and now that I know how to order and how they operate here, I would consider it if I'm here on a day my other restaurants are closed. read more

Nice Cantonese restaurant specializes in good congee and rice roll ( cheung fun ) Our favorite is the crab congee / abalone congee. Very flavorful. Their cheung fun is smooth and soft, just like the ones in Hong Kong Currently they are offering all you can eat option for $23.75, so you can try as many different kind of Cantonese food as possible. They have a premium option for $31.75. Thank you for the friendly service Cecilia! read more

I've been eating here for quite a long time. And I noticed that it's slowly gone downhill, especially after the remodels. It's unfortunate because this was our favorite congee spot. Today I ordered thousand year old porridge with pork. I will have to say this place does give a lot of toppings/protein. They also have combo meals which it did come with quite a lot of food for a porridge, side of noodles and a drink for about 12 Ish dollars . I ordered for takeout so I'm not sure if that makes a difference but shortly after I got my order, I was going to eat, and I opened it and there was a bunch of brown old smelly lettuce on top.. I was like how could they even think about serving this to anybody? It even had a bad odor. Writing this review, I see the old photos that I had posted for this place and that was when the food was good. But now with this spoiled lettuce, I'm not sure if this is a one time mistake but the food quality has definitely also gone down so I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon. read more

This place is not our avg vibe on a Sunday night. Maybe they're getting ready to shut down for good ? We went on a Sunday night; scanned the QR code. We found many items are "out of stock". Water----YOU HAVE TO PAY $1.00 for water with lemon. Nope.....tap water in a glass for $1.00. Water is F R E E. We left immediately knowing many things are amissed. There was only a family of 4 and 1 man sitting in a corner. The whole strip mall has tight parking spaces and lack anything attractive. read more

They've expanded the restaurant. It's much bigger now with more seating and I believe expanded their menu as well. The menu is so confusing. By the time you finish ordering, you end up ordering all kinds of things thinking it was with your meal. The girl who helped us was really nice but we had way more than expected. We thought all the side things came with the main (I.e. pan fried pork chops... then she gave an option to order rice but ended up being a side of fried rice etc). The food was ok. Idk, maybe I was just confused but you can go try for yourself. lol read more

Great place to have Hong Kong styled breakfast/lunch. Huge menu with so much to choose from. Ordering from the kiosk was overwhelming... thankfully the server helped me navigate and ordered my usual She was patient and friendly. The restaurant is clean and has plenty of seating.

This place has really great porridge, everything else that we had which was the wonton noodles and rice rolls were OK nothing special. I would come back to eat their porridge, though, they have a nice container that keeps it really hot, large portions, and lots of sides that you can add to the porridge. I also like their Hong Kong milk tea. I thought it tasted great and they have a lot of options you can do such as less milk, more milk, less sugar, etc. Their prices are average to high for the type of good, it was $50 for 3 dishes (one combo) and 2 milk tea. I will say the ordering system was hard to navigate. They have a lot of different options and special ways to order making it slightly overwhelming when I first saw the monitor. read more

Chan Kee is definitely the spot if you're craving porridge. The portions are huge--easily enough for two people. I liked that they have a kiosk for ordering; it makes things much more convenient. They have plenty of seating and it was seat yourself. I also tried some non-porridge items: the shrimp wonton soup and the baked pork chop rice. Honestly, I've had better elsewhere, and I wouldn't order them again. The shrimp wontons were okay, but the noodles didn't have that nice bouncy texture you usually get with HK-style noodles. The baked pork chop rice came with a scrambled egg layer that made it taste a little strange. read more

Great hong Kong food spot. Service is amazing and Staff is the best and super helpful. I miss ordered my drink and they were able to help me. Thank you so much! Please add a tip box! Self service-ish kind of spot. Order at the kiosk or at the table you're sitting at. Then, pick up your food at the counter or they'll bring you the food if you order at the table. Food is super affordable and good. Deep fried chicken - delicious, has the unique flavor of most hk wings, can be a little on the saltier side, might be too salty for some LA fried rice - delicious and huge portion, taste and looks exactly how my dad would make it read more

Found this place on Instagram and decided to go on a date here. Upon entering, the restaurant was pretty empty, maybe one couple Was there eating. To order, there are two kiosk tablets where you can place your order The menu was pretty categorized with your noodles, rice, dish, soup, combos, etc. I like how it is self serve. You can serve yourself water, as well as as there is a little condiment section where you can get crispy, onion, crispy, garlic, green onion, pickled ginger, etc. for your soups and sides. I ordered the beef noodle soup combo, which came with the Hong Kong milk, tea. My date order the beef noodle soup as well. We both enjoyed the noodle soup as it was very flavorful. My soup had a lot of noodles and just the right amount of beef, and my dates soup had a lot of beef Because he ordered just the soup alone. We also ordered the fried giant squid legs and soy sauce chow mein noodles for the table to share. These two dishes came out separately, and also took a while for the food to come out, which I understand because the food was made to order. We were not really impressed by the fried giant squid legs as most of it was batter and not enough squid. And the soy sauce chow mein noodles was delicious! Although we were already full from our beef noodle soup, we were able to have some of the soy sauce chow mein noodles. It was very flavorful, and although we didn't order it with any protein, the cook included shrimp and chicken chicken. The porridge soup was something both of us wanted to order, so we would definitely come back to try that. I would also recommend this place if you are ever in the area. read more

I ordered small bite of chow mein this morning and it take more than 30 minutes. This is unacceptable! Other customers order after me which they already received there foods.

The food is delicious and super great value compared other restaurants. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

Great deal on the AYCE under $25 per person! You can pick whatever your tummy desires from the menu, with over 60 + items, and enjoy the made-to-order food. We started with tease/ light appetizers- rice noodle, fish shumai, takoyaki, fried chicken leg, clamsside up fried eggs then moved to carbs- friend rice, Chan's famous congee, hong kong style stried friend egg noodle, beef stew, shrimp wontons, followed by hand dipped shrimp tempura, edmame, fried scallops, fried oyster, Japanese sake clams and much more. Finished strong with house special ell rolls and a scoop of ice cream. I loved how Chan Kee adjusted the food portion to each order, since we have 3 people in the party, they would offer either 3 pcs of a small protion of the order, they want use to try everything on the menu, and not try to feed us with flavorless carbs. Our favorite item for the night was fried chicken legs; it had crispy skin, but the meat was juicy. Shrimp wontons with nothing but shrimp, we loved it so much and ordered twice. Sake clams were very fresh and flavorful! The AYCE does have a time limit of 100 minutes per visit, but it is still enough time for you to fill your tummy! We do plan to visit again and try the other items that we didn't try at dinner :) read more

I've hit this one up a couple of times. The porridge options come with a side of youtiao or rice noodle rolls. And for about $16 (including tax and tip), this meal will feed you 3 sittings. They've about 8 options and you can visit the topping bar to add ginger, scallions, preserved greens, cilantro, soy sauce or black vinegar to customize your giant bucket of porridge. The House Special includes shrimp, squid, and pork offal...and is pretty tasty. They have a competent beef stew noodle bowl with your choice of noodles. I picked the knife cut noodles and had about half before I tapped out. I've had coworkers order noodles and wontons, breakfast items, Portuguese-style baked dishes...and the only items that don't get a satisfactory review were the Portuguese-style baked dishes. This seems to be a regular in the rotation for the folks. read more

Great value spot for congee if you don't mind a bit of a DIY dining experience. It's self service: order on your phone, pick up from the counter when ready and drop off tray when done. Just be prepared to wait for food as it doesn't come out all at once. We needed up making multiple trips, and one person in our group didn't get their food until halfway through our meal. That said, the food was tasty and definitely affordable. The congee with thousand year egg and shredded pork was comforting and flavorful. A definite standout. Each congee comes with a drink and side dish. There are sauces and snacks like peanuts and marinated veggies at the counter. Milk tea was a let down - $1.50 extra for ice and it tasted watered down and bland. Skip it. Mix sauce rice roll was soft and satisfying. Wonton soup: wonton was juicy and packed with whole shrimp in them. Four large pieces. Unfortunately, the noodle and broth was a let down. No taste. Overall, the congee is worth coming back for, especially if you're looking for a quick affordable meal. read more

Latest update as TODAY. They print New Menu so people can review them. TV menu is not updated yet. Kiosk have no picture yet. Basically, they break the combo menu into more options. Start with Plain, add protein, side, then drink. Protein can be add as half (previous regular) or full portion, more meat. Cold drink is included now without adding extra cost. Total price is about the same for what I paid. Service is fast especially at night. Less customer. No line. Still good place to have Cantonese Style Porridge. They have more side dishes, snacks, dessert. Have not try them all. This maybe hit or miss since the item are not their specialties. Ambience is the same. Now they add digital dine in using Toasttab. Serving station, condiments and water are now located at serving counter now. The old location become tray return area. The best part is NO TIP allowed. So low cost! read more

So you seat yourself and can order from the QR code at your table or kiosk. This was my first time visiting. The menu is difficult to navigate. If you have ride people waiting behind you, they'll let you know you're taking too long. I ordered the porridge with Chinese donuts. My dad and I shared and the porridge was enough for 4 people! It's porridge so not flavorful until you add the self- serve condiments. Chili oil works best with the porridge in my opinion. My dad enjoyed it. The restaurant is spacious and there's plenty of seating. My dad is in a wheelchair, and I appreciate the spacious arrangement of the tables. You do have to wait on your own table when you're done eating. read more

Note: Expect self service style dine in experience, similar to food court environment. It probably gives people second thoughts about coming here, especially if they expect pampering or good food service from Cantonese restaurants. Order at kiosk at front counter. Carry your own foods and drop off your own trays. Yes, food court mentality. Most employees are not Chinese here, so be patient. 5/5 for food quality/presentation/ingredients/flavors/taste. 4/5 cleanliness and upkeep/self service condiments/complimentary iced water. Two public restrooms gender neutral. This spot for traditional Cantonese street foods is pretty legit to me. Good tasting foods/they use good recipes. You really need to appreciate these old recipes in order to enjoy food items a la carte style here. Chan Kee name is as Cantonese as it gets. Rice rolls were excellent in taste and texture. It's rare to find the perfect texture for soft rice rolls these days. They really hooked ours up with good sauces. We loved our rice rolls drooped in heavy sauces. Nice. Iced coffee was ok, but not the best. Bucket of porridge was beyond excellent. They make excellent special porridge here and the portion is huge! Hot in temperature too! Comes with all the side veggies. Feeds 2-4 people. Quality rice. You can be very satisfied with orders under $15 each. 5-spiced beef white noodles was excellent in texture and taste too. I'm impressed at first sight. Everything is Cantonese style for sure. It's not common to find good vermicelli white noodles these days. Delicious foods. Chef at window was experienced and good at his job. For a local food court type restaurant, this one stands out. People do expect Cantonese style restaurant service here, but it's set up to be self service, due to pandemic years. We are fine with self service grab and go. Condiments are good, so don't forget to grab stuff upfront while waiting for your order number. read more

I'm usually not the type to complain, but I really can't accept this porridge. Every two to three weeks, I buy porridge and bring it to San Diego for my 102-year-old grandmother. Since she's old and has no teeth, I always get fish porridge for her. I've always loved Chan Kee's porridge, so I was really surprised by what happened this time. Yesterday morning, I bought three bowls of porridge--two fish porridges (one with added dried scallops, though I couldn't see or taste them at all) and one seafood porridge. When I arrived in San Diego and opened them, I found: * The first bowl was basically porridge water. * The second bowl was half porridge, half water. * The third bowl was normal. If, as Chan Kee claimed, the consistency changed due to the time or the long drive, then all three bowls should have been affected but clearly, that wasn't the case. I called them and even sent a video, and you can see their response. I've never had porridge turn out like this before, and this isn't my first time buying from them. I didn't reheat or stir it at all. Even when I cook porridge at home and leave it overnight, it never separates into just water the next day. This isn't about the money I spent, it's about the fact that I brought this for my grandmother, and all she ended up with was porridge water to drink. I'm really disappointed. I've also had multiple mis with my orders before--wrong items, missing drinks--but I've never complained. This time, I really couldn't hold back. What's even more frustrating is their response, they just blamed me and pushed all the responsibility onto the customer. read more

I was excited to try Chan Kee. I saw that bbq pork was served with rice and a fried egg. Well. How about they were out of bbq pork before 6pm ( sad face). Ended up ordering the 6 piece chicken wings served piping hot. The breading was light and not flaky like a traditional fried kitchen (KFC). It was tasty. Not served with any type of sauce so I squeezed up sriracha mayo. It worked. Also ordered the flat noodle with a side of shrimp tempura and seasoned corn. Noodles needed more flavor and veggies ( Chinese broccoli). 2 pieces of shrimp tempura was ok but 2 pieces for $5? Should have been $1 a piece IMO. Seasoned corn was average. Cheese melted on top and was a chunk of melted cheese not melted into a the corn. Lots of butter in the corn though. I think the congee might have been the menu item to get. Seems like that's what they're know for? Order by kiosk and I think staff can take your order if preferred. Order took awhile and no one else was there besides one gentleman who was done eating. Place is really self service- pick up your food, load up on your condiments yourself and go up for your to-go boxes, lastly, return your tray. The restaurant is clean and not loud at all with all the TVs going. Although, we were the only ones there! I may need to go back for congee. Love congee. It'll be a problem If the congee doesn't live up to its reputation! The service was slow as food came out one after the other with a break in between. Parking lot that can get tricky to find a spot without having to park a little bit a ways. Will make it back for congee. read more

Low key and semi-fast food if you're on the go. Stopped by for a weekend (late) lunch and it was moderately busy with a few empty tables. We ordered the beef stew noodles, pan fried dumplings, korean tofu, wonton noodles, curry with rice, gai lan, chicken tenders, ribs with rice, and soy sauce fried noodles. Not bad, all things considered, including the price. Everything tastes what you would expect, no wow and no disappointments (which is good). If you're going for the first time, just be aware that there's no table service. Once you walk in, find a seat and order using the QR code at the table. You will receive a buzzer that will notify you whenever food is ready, or sometimes staff will bring the food to you. You also get your own utensils, water, etc, and you bus your own plates when you're done. If you're looking for something simple and relatively quick, this is the place to go. read more

We went on a weekday morning, and there wasn't a big crowd and no wait. The restaurant was clean, self-service cafeteria style where you order at entrance, then find your seat/get your condiments & utensils and wait for your food to be called. The menu included typical HK style breakfast/diner food: porridge, noodles, pork chop, eggs, spaghetti, Chinese donut, and rice roll. The food portion was generous, and the porridge was huge. One bucket can easily feed four people, so best to come with others if you want to try the comforting and homey porridge. The other dishes we tried were okay flavor, but the price was great for the amount of food you get. However, I did not like that they charge a fee for condense milk. Also, other HK diners included a complimentary hot or cold drink with a set of food order, but ChanKee charges 1.50 extra for cold drink; only hot drinks are complimentary. Three and half star bumped down to 3 stars. read more
