Chen's is awesome. Long time Long Beach vacationer and I always have to hit this place up. Good combos with lots of food. Thanks Chen's.

Always fresh and HOT ... it's best if you eat it there, you can't find anything like it for miles ... never waited more than 15 mins for take out ... and they do moo shoo .... Yum read more

Perhaps I've been spoiled by Seattle's wide selection of Chinese restaurants, but honestly I'd even give Safeway's Chinese food 3 stars more than Chen's. Going in to the place I was well aware I was in Long Beach, so I didn't set my expectations high, (not that I have anything against Long Beach, I just don't imagine them being known for their awesome Asian cuisine). Chen being my uncles last name it even felt a tad familiar. However, upon tasting my food I still found myself disappointed and the food went mostly uneaten. The chow mein had not one noodle in it, maybe one, but that was it. Chow mein without noodles made me pretty suspicious. The sweet and sour chicken was alright, but I feel I still must give one star for a healthy average rating. 5 stars is a bit crazy. My girlfriend also noticed that her almond chicken had what appeared to be a bite taken out of it. I'm not going to leap to accusing them of recycling their food, but the thought did cross my mind. read more

The food was good if you don't mind eating your family meal in a staggered setting. Service was horrible waitress never came to check on us once. Could actually hear other customers asking where she went. After waiting about 10 minutes we we t to the counter to get our bill. We get to the counter and the guy says oh 3 for lunch mind you this is the same guy that brought us our BBQ pork appetizer. Don't know if we will be back. read more

FOOD SO BAD! COPS CALLED! How bad does a restaurant have to be if you need to involve the cops? I ordered Kung pow chicken and it was inedible. I told the waitress ... and before she even took it back to the kitchen... she informed me the owner would not take it off the bill and would make me pay for it. I said "I wasn't going to pay for food I couldn't eat and let me talk to the owner". When I approached the owner ... she walked away and hid in the kitchen ... At this point the head waitress ... a short blond informed me. "If I didn't pay for the food ... it was considered theft ... and she would call the cops". So I said "call the cops". She called the cops and I waited outside for the cops to arrive. See pics. I explained the situation to the officer and he informed me that "he would arrest me for dashing and dining if I didn't pay". She tells the cop it "was a matter of taste difference". I have never dashed on a restaurant in my life. I did not want to go to jail so I paid the bill. After thinking about this. I realized a few things. The head waitress knew exactly what to say to the cops and this must happen all the time. I also realized she was right. The food at Chen's tastes so bad ... it is actually a matter of taste. Bad taste! After this experience I read the reviews on here and based on how they are written. I can tell the positive reviews on here are mostly fake. DON'T EAT HERE!!! read more

Chen's Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Long Beach, Washington

See all

Super yummy Chinese food!! I was shocked! Usually I'm a bit hesitant when eating Chinese outside Seattle but I was pleasantly surprised:)

What a nice surprise. We had two great meals along with very nice service. I am not a food critic so I can't say if they were gourmet meals but we were happy at Chen's and happy the next day with the leftovers for lunch read more

Okay so I have had Chinese food in a lot of places. This one was pretty good. I was warned before I went though that it depends on what cook is there. Apparently there is a two week rotation between too cooks and one of them is really bad. I guess I scored because not only was the restaurant open (many were not due to being off season) but the food was hot, plentiful and well spiced! My husband said its the best Kung Pao he has had.. My favorite Kung Pao is else where but it was good for sure. I hope that I would eat here again and get the same cook. read more

We sized up Chen's after a fun, wet windy weathered day of nonstop fun. My daughter requested rice for dinner and since our accommodations are closely situated to this establishment we couldn't pass it up. Quick service. They sport some really nice uniforms and the decorations are very simple and inviting. First we got the large Fried Shrimp appetizers and it arrived quickly. Dolly ordered a Whiskey Sour which she quickly stated 'its the worst Whiskey Sour I've ever had' but managed to get it down. I ordered the Beef Broccoli and it was divine. Killer place and walking distance from most Northern area of Long Beach Motels makes this place definitely returnable. read more

My fave chinese restaurant in Long Beach. The Shirley temple is out of the world. I had general tao chicken for dinner last time I went and it was really delicious. The wontons are really good too. BEST CHINESE FOOD IN TOWN! Definitely recommend. read more

Great authentic food that was hot and filling with large portions for the price... We will be going there more often!!!

Big fan of the hot and sour soup and chefs special beef. Only complaint is the atmosphere, seems very dated.

The kung pao chicken was spicy and tasty. The tomato beef chow yuk was fairly sweet but not bad. Somehow we ended up with 3 huge boxes of rice. The salad was good. The eggrolls were just ok. Still it was nice takeout dinner we could eat back at the hotel with our dogs. I would eat there again. It's not the best Chinese food but is fairly good for the area. read more

I am only giving this place 2 stars because I feel you have to be more lenient to restaurants in this area. Dude...Mr. Chen...Get outta here! You know your cutting corners. I left this place feeling the only thing I may have gained from this meal is a double chen... read more

I got the double pork chow mein and almond fried chicken. None of this food was homemade! The chowmein tasted and looked like the stuff you buy in the can. I know because i buy it a few times a year. Its ok for $4 a big can. they did cut some barbecued pork and thru on top but that was the only difference. The almond chicken came from a bag heated up some how and the gravy was terrible and none of ether had any Almonds! Save yourself some money and go buy some frozen Chinese food in a local grocery store or at least stay away from these two items! read more

We ate here and enjoyed it very much .... the Staff was very friendly & accommodating .. food was fresh and very good. The Shrimp was too die for . Yummy! ! We stayed in the motel right next to chens .. Nice rooms gotta get there early or you won't get a room..Thank You Chen's we'll be back for sure . read more

Even though the parking lot was full, we were seated quickly and our order was taken. Our food was delivered quickly and awesome. Lots of staff on duty and very friendly. read more

Chen's Restaurant - The special was huge and only $10.95. - Chinese Near Me - Long Beach, Washington

This is a nice little Chinese food restaurant on the Long Beach peninsula. Good food and fair prices. We've been there twice and will go back again, on one of our visits to our property in Ocean Park. read more

This restaurant has decent food. Me and my wife come here regularly. A big issue with me is the service. They hang up on you if you have any questions, and I can't think of a restaurant I have EVER been treated so rudely, while I was very polite. If you can deal with that, try it. That ruined it for me though. I will no longer go here. read more

So this was our first visit to Long Beach, so we really wanted Chinese food. I MUST say that this place has poor customer service. The food was alright but personally we wouldn't go there again. I wish we had a better experience but it just wasn't there. We didn't feel welcomed at all. read more

Great inexpensive Chinese joint. General Tso and managers special beef fried to perfection- best general tso I've had in awhile. Great wonton soup- everything in it. Saw some bad reviews, had low expectations, but turned out to be excellent. Party of seven, all happy. We eat Asian food weekly. Fried rice yummy. read more

This place is okay for where it is at. The best thing about the meal? Crab wontons!! They were sooo good I wanted MORE!

I usually go out of my way to find decent Asian cuisine. The staff seemed friendly enough. The food is mediocre at best. I thought since we came during the off season (which was quite busy) and didn't see many cars it would be an opportunity to test out the food. The three of us didn't finish our meal (we had take out). I ordered the Mongolian beef and thought it was a disaster. The BBQ pork was bad, crab cheese wontons without the crab, and the egg roll is a horrible rendition of a burrito. I do hope they can improve. It would be nice to actually enjoy the food and the staff seems nice enough. Shame on them, however. read more

You cannot stop by long beach & not eat there. There's nothing really too special here. I've ate here over 10 times & never have been disappointed. The service is always great!! They make really good drinks! Typical over portioned meals. I do love that you pick and choose what's in your meal. read more

I ordered the teriyaki chicken special with steamed rice and vegetables. It was unlike any teriyaki chicken I had ever had. Very fatty and strange tasting. I took one bite and spit it out because of the strange, fatty texture and odd taste. The server never asked how our food was (we came in 1/2 hour before closing so they were busy trying to clean up) so when I walked up to the front to pay I told the server I did not eat the food and asked for them to take it off the bill. The server then went to the kitchen and asked someone, I'm assuming the manager or owner, if she could take it off the bill. Some heated words were exchanged and the server marched out to the table to grab my plate to show whomever was in the kitchen that I did not eat the food. She brought the food to the kitchen and showed the person the plate. The server then came back to the register and said that "He" refused to take the meal off the bill. I will never go back. read more

Wasn't expecting the best Chinese food in a coastal town but this was worse than expected. Sweet n sour sauce tasted a bit like soap. Fried wontons were plain with no flavor and egg flower soup tasted more like water downed chicken broth. read more

We've eaten at Chen's, had the takeout as well.. The food is always better when you eat it there, however if you have to get it to go it's still pretty good. I have noticed that sometimes the food is really good and other times it's sorta 'iffy'. I'm not sure what the difference is. My hubby really likes the kung pao and BBQ pork, i've had better 'fried' chicken dishes at other chinese restaurants there's is ok, the Crab wontons are really good and so are the fried prawns if you eat there, to go they are mushy and disappointing. Wish they had something besides the pretty plain fried chicken (crispy almond chicken) and the one drenched in sweet and sour sauce, there needs to be something not drowning in sauce .. but not dry. Still a few more things to try so i know we will be going back read more

Friendly staff, willing to take substitutions. We had one of the dinners for 2. Sweet and sour pork was delicious. Pork fried rice was not that good. We were there during their 18th anniversary and got BOGO entrees--totally awesome. I would eat here again for sure! read more

My husband and I had dinner here and thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything was hot and fresh. Service was friendly and prompt, even though it was a very busy Saturday night. Only thing that could have been better was the egg flower soup, seemed a little bland. All in all great meal for a great price. read more

Excellent chinese food. We had their family style dinner (B) tonight. Every dish was delicious and full of flavor. We especially like their beef chow mein. We added pot stickers to the meal and they were delicious too! The service was wonderful. When we're in the area again, we'll definitely be back!! read more

Choemein was all bean sprouts, not my favorite. Lemon chicken sauce was okay however chicken overcooked. Egg roll was over breaded and disproportionately stuffed with bean sprouts. Crab puffs were very good. read more

My family and I are from Vancouver WA, and we've been coming to Long Beach forever! We finally tried this place and it was worth it! Very clean and welcoming, food was low priced but tasted delicious! BEST egg flower soup i've ever had. Very nice service. Definitely worth a try! read more

Just don't go here. Instead of writing a long review just read all the other one star reviews. They tell the story. I don't know what happened here because we used to love this place. read more

Most of the food was flavorless. We ordered sesame chicken, sweet and sour chicken, and almond chicken chow mein. The almond chicken comes without any sauce. Might be good for small children. The sweet and sour chicken sauce was very bland. Almost no flavor. The chow mein was the best of what we ordered but it was mostly celery. The egg drop soup has lots of veggies in it. Peas and carrots. The egg rolls are battered. I may have to learn how to make my own since we won't be going back. read more

Food served cold, which tells me the food wasn't cooked today. Waitress never checked back to see how things were. I would have sent the food back if I could have gotten her attention. My suggestion is to drive on by. read more

I loved this restaurant. The food I got was amazing. The atmosphere was pleasant. Came back the next day. Definitely suggest if you like Chinese food! read more

Chen's Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Long Beach, Washington

I usually have a favorite dish everywhere I eat but I like ethnic food more I guess. The general tso, chef special beef, walnut prawns, foo young, almond friend chicken, and chow miens are all favorites. It depends on the nice. The soups and Barbeque pork are very good as well. This and the Mexican restaurant are where we eat most often. Casual and very friendly atmosphere. read more

Way overpriced for the quality and quantity of food received! I know GOOD Chinese food since I reside near San Francisco but this place is really not worth your time or money unless you don't care about wasting TONS of money on flavorless Chinese food read more

Nothing pretentious, just standard Chinese-American fare that is done quite well here. Served in generous portions with very good prices. The wait staff is friendly and the service quick. Based on our couple visits, this place looks popular with locals. We fed four adults and two kids for about $50 + tip with one app and three entrees served family style. If you like Chinese would recommend giving it a try. read more

Love Chen's! When we head to the beach we always get dinner to-go. Favorites are house special fried rice, cashew chicken and broccoli beef. Delicious! read more
