    Porridge with beef
    Monica W.

    Food is ok for that price but tastes is acceptable. Their menu system is very complicated though. Self serve place which you don't have to tip a lot

    2 eggs any way, any potato (hashbrown here) + toast = $7.75 plus Spam ($3.00 for 2 pieces)

    Chan Kee is a little confusing. You order your food from a kiosk, but you can also order drinks from your table. Congee seems to be very popular here, but they also offer an all-you-can-eat situation, though what you're all-can-eating is a mystery. I came around 2:00PM on a Thursday and there quite a few people dining. What I was wanted was a big ole bowl of wonton noodles ($14.95) so I ordered one. The wontons at Chan Kee are delish. They're generously sized and very meaty. I didn't care much for the broth or noodles. If I could, I'd order the wontons a la carte. The chicken wings were also pretty good ($11.75). I ordered the salt and pepper version, however they offer many, many sauces, and to my surprise, you can select as many as you want because they're essentially just dipping sauces. So don't do what I did and order the most boring, bland wings. My sister ordered off the all-day breakfast menu, but again, take note because the combos stop at 11:00AM. For $7.75, you get 2 eggs anyway you like, some form of a potato (hash brown for her) and a piece of toast. She added 2 pieces of Spam for $3 bucks. If you like an Asian breakfast situation, do this. The food was fine, but the service was exceptionally slow/bad. While you do order off a kiosk, humans handle your orders and the girls on this shift were not it. My sister got her breakfast 30 minutes after I got my noodles, and by then, we were already 30 minutes committed. That was a tad too long for a fast casual meal. Honestly, with so many better Hong Kong cafes in the area, I'd skip Chan Kee.

    I'm normally a fan of Chan Kee because they serve breakfast all day. I was soooooo sad to see their Monrovia location closed down, so we came to this new location in Rowland Heights instead. They are in the same plaza as Dollar Tree and Halal Guys, plenty of parking. Unlike their other locations where there is someone quick to take your order, they have a kiosk here. It's problematic cause it's only one kiosk and all it takes is some confused people to hold up the line for the rest of the customers. My boyfriend had their Shrimp Wonton Soup with Egg Noodle ($14.75) and opted for the hot Hong Kong Style Milk Tea. I had their Thousand Year Egg and Pork Porridge ($14.75) with Chinese Donuts and the Iced Hong Kong Style Lemon Tea. I was really sad they didn't have any beef tongue pastry. It was on their menu but when I was browsing around their kiosk, I came to the conclusion it wasn't available for the day since I checked every category. They had many tables where you can seat yourself. And you can grab your own utensils and condiments too. Most things here are self-served. Considering how less-busy it was than their other locations, I felt like food was slow to come out. My boyfriend liked his wontons and felt like there's a generous amount. However my porridge was really disappointing. This is a dish I had at their other restaurants many times, and this execution was not like it at all. It was strangely bland and I didn't eat much of it. We took it togo and I re-seasoned it when I got home. Fan of the business, but not a fan of this location. I'll trek further to their Diamond Bar location next time if I want some breakfast all day.

    Thousand year old egg congee

    Had a great experience here! The self service to avoid tipping was great! And we still had excellent service from the kitchen staff despite them not getting tips. The lady who served us our food was so welcoming and kind. Plenty of parking in the lot (though it could get crowded). Plenty of seating inside. We ordered the milk tea as our free hot drink and it was so good! We also ordered the fried chicken (perfectly crispy and good), the thousand year old congee (very tasty and goes well with the fried bread/yotel), and shrimp wonton (the egg noodles worked well and the shrimp was good). I love that you can pick your side dishes (the salted peanuts were so good and the fried shallots) yourself at the back counter. Overall, it was delicious food and a great experience!

    Porridge and rice roll
    Paula H.

    This location recently opened and decided to visit! There was only one other party when we came in so it wasn't crowded at all. We ordered at the kiosk and our order promptly came out! I got the shrimp wonton noodle soup! It was good, but could use a little more flavor. The shrimp wontons were big and plentiful. My partner got the baked Bolognese with cheese. It was sweet and very good! Our other family members ordered the porridge and that was a huge portion! You could definitely eat it for two meals. They chose the rice rolls to go with it. I loved the sauces that they provided with it. All of these orders came with a hot drink. For iced one, you need to pay extra. A good experience and would come back again!

    We had a good experience here for my dad's bday; arrived pretty early and there was only 1 table and 3 parties ahead of us at the machine. There parking in the lot, but maybe you'll just have to be a little farther away. Ordering is done at the self kiosk, but I can imagine my parents having a harder time since it's in English only. Once you order, you'll select a pager from the basket, input the number into the kiosk, then complete your order and pay. Fun fact, no tipping! After you finish ordering, you'll find a table. There's utensils and the accoutrements for your congee: peanuts, wonton chips, green onions, pickled veggies, and spicy pickled veggies. When your pager flashes, head to the counter to grab your food; this may come out in bits and pieces. We enjoyed the food and the portions are big enough for leftovers. I'd recommend the congees which are great. The free accompanying drinks are nice too.

    Yummy and can be a quick in and out spot when not busy. You order on a kiosk and pick up in the front and put your finished trays away so very little service. We ordered the beef stew with egg noodles both dry and soup versions along with a preserved egg porridge - all decent prices and good sizes. The beef stew was sooo flavorful I'd highly recomme

    Shrimp Wontons

    Decided stop by this place for brunch after passing by a few times. The restaurant has a simple aesthetic, where pratically everything is self-service from the ordering, to seating, and even the serving. You head to the kiosk right when you enter to order, where you will sear yourself and await your buzzer to pick up your food/drink along with the utensils. My family and I opted for their shrimp wontons and beef congee/chow mein combo along with some good old fashioned Hong Kong style milk tea. The food was not bad, where the congee was the best dish compared to the shrimp wontons where they lack in size, flavor, and texture. The portion sizing for the congee was impressive. As for the chow mein, it was not anything special and noodles a bit overdone. The milk tea was very similar to what you would typically get from any Canto/Hong Kong styled diner. Did not really see anything else on the menu besides some additional veggie and shrimp shu mai dishes. Perhaps, the menu is updated during dinner? Overall, food was ok and the only thing that was worthwhile was their congee where essentially 4 people could share from.

    Chan Kee has been open for a few months now, but didn't really have the urge to stop by until recently. Overall, food was good but nothing mindblowing. Tried the Shrimp Wonton Noodle Soup, Minced Beef Porridge, and Golden Chicken Wings. The Shrimp Wonton Noodle Soup was actually better than I expected. The wontons were good, the noodles had decent flavor, and the broth was pretty flavorful. Minced Beef Porridge was alright. Have had better congee elsewhere, but no doubt that they give you a LOT. With as much congee as there is, this could easily be good for two or three meals. Golden Chicken Wings pretty standard, nice fryup. Staff here were really friendly. The ordering is all through self-service kiosk, so the only thing the staff does here is hand your food off after your buzzer goes off. They also clean up everything for you. Again, nothing special. Decent Cantonese comfort food. There are some other menu items I do want to try at some point.

    My family and I were in Rowland Heights, and I decided to dine at Chan Kee for dinner tonight. When we arrived, there seemed to be no customers in the restaurant. We ordered the following: Seafood Porridge with Soy Sauce Chow Mein and Ice Lemon Tea, Shrimp Wonton Noodle Soup with Ice Lemon Tea, Pan Fried Pork Chop with Black Pepper Sauce over Spaghetti with Ice Lemon Tea, and Golden Chicken Wings with Ice Lemon Tea. The food came out quickly, and you can get several tiny side dishes for the porridge at the front counter. Overall, we all love the food and drinks.

    So glad to have tried this place! I love how simple and easy it is to dine here. There is a kiosk where you place your order that was quite handy, however it may be complicated for older Asian customers! This elderly group was having trouble using the kiosk machine, which I wish there was an attendant to help them! But we ended up helping them out to order and navigate with the kiosk machine. Then when it was our turn to order, we selected the porridge combo with chow mein, which it also comes with a free drink! My bf tried the milk tea w/ coffee. It is also 1.50 more to have it iced. We also ordered more sides because I wanted the Zha Liang, and then we ordered a 6pc fried chicken. We ordered and got a pager and went to seat ourselves. It didn't take too long for our order to be prepared, but we would have to pick it up from the counter when each item was ready. The porridge ended up being prepared second to last (before the chicken wings). Going through each item, everything tasted really great! I really enjoyed the Zha Liang here with the sweet sauce, the porridge was pretty nice, chow mein was pretty standard (it was a bit dry), and the chicken wings were pretty good! I was pleasantly surprised with the chicken wings cause the way they fried it was extremely crunchy, yet the chicken was still juicy! I also liked how you can get the toppings from the counter for your porridge. Overall, everything tasted really great! The milk tea was pretty standard too, although it was a bit too sweet for my liking. It could have been stronger. My bf didn't like his milk tea with coffee that much, and he said it wasn't strong at all. Although the drinks were okay, the food here was really good!

    Chan Kee is located on Colima at Rowland Heights. It offers wide varieties of Cantonese food and street food, desserts. Decor is modern, eatery, with touch of traditional Hong Kong restaurant. We order two combos, and one chicken rice is almost free as part of promotion. Dishes taste good and authentic. They are solid choices. Great price, portions, and taste is better than average. Everything taste good except the icy dessert is not sweet. Chan kee's waitress is very friendly and in my option it offers good value and good for quick meals.

    ordered 2 item soup noodle, wonton and beef stew came with hot drink so I got the yinyang one.

    Been meaning to try Chan Kee out and glad I did. Order at kiosk, quick and easy. Wontons were packed with shrimp and beef stew was decent too. Noodles were springy. Drink even came in a togo cup so I was able to take it to go.

It offers a generous portion of tender, juicy meat and springy, fresh noodles. "DELICIOUS!!" I arrived at No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights) on Sunday (around 11AM). Parking is easy. The lot is big with many spots. Staff is very friendly and welcoming, but Staff spoke limited English. Fortunately, pointing at the menu was clear enough. The food took eight minutes and nine seconds. Fast time! As mentioned, the Beef Rib Noodle Soup ($16.50 - Mild) is wonderful! It arrived picturesque and delicious!! However, despite ordering "mild," the food has a very strong heat; I sweat nonstop as I ate. The broth is rich, savory, and spicy. The meat is tender, flavorful, and falls off the bone. And the noodles are hefty, soft, and springy. It's a wonderful, euphoric combination of flavors and textures. Concerning ambiance, No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights) is surprisingly spacious with its tall ceiling and relatively clean surroundings. However, its walls and furniture look worn down with time. Some seats even had torn holes. Unfortunately, the music uses radio with constant commercials playing in the background. Fortunately, there's a gender neutral restroom in the back. Overall, I found culinary magic at No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights). The food is fresh, generously portioned, and well-prepared. I left full with a bright smile. If you enjoy spicy beef noodle soup, this is a must-try! 5 out of 5!! "GO!!"

It's tucked away in a strip mall, and while it wasn't too busy when we arrived, the ambience was cozy and inviting. We ordered a couple of noodle dishes and a few appetizers, and everything was brought out fresh as it was ready. The flavors were outstanding--bold, well-balanced, and unlike your typical Chinese takeout. What really sets this place apart is that they make their noodles fresh in-house--you can actually watch them being pulled through a window in the dining room. They also incorporate spices you don't usually find in Chinese cuisine, like cumin, which gave the dishes a really unique and delicious twist. A couple other things to note are that you order food through your phone which makes things super easy and they also do not serve any alcohol. However they have a wide variety of teas and soft drinks. This spot is definitely one of my new favorites, and I'll be coming back anytime I'm in the area. Highly recommend!

    Over the past few years, I have loved this restaurant so much that I not only visited alone…read morefrequently but also brought my family, friends, and colleagues--all of whom enjoyed it as well. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and even the takeout packaging was handled with great care. However, this time, I was disappointed. Ever since they switched to ordering via QR code, it feels like the service has disappeared. Aside from bringing water and delivering food, no one checked in to see how our meal was. We had to pack our leftovers ourselves, and after paying, the receipt was simply placed on the table without even a word of thanks. The service is truly not what it used to be! I'm sharing this disappointing dining experience with everyone--since there's no service, you might want to reconsider how much tip you leave.
