    Shrimp Toast
    Vivian T.

    Randomly chose to have Chin Chin for dinner. Our server Cam gave us a complete rundown of the menu and suggested us what to order since their new exec chef took over. Portions are all family style. We ordered Dan Dan Noodles, Sweet Honey Chicken, Chicken Salad, Chili Wontons and Shrimp Toast. My favorite item here was the Chili Garlic Wontons and Shrimp Toast! Highly recommend those appetizers! The chili wontons are probably the best I've had compared to other Chinese restaurants. I'd skip the salad but it was light! Service was great and I absolutely enjoyed my experience dining here.

    This is an ambient place for Chinese/Asian cuisine located in West Hollywood! Made a reservation for dinner for my mom's birthday party and we were seated immediately, on a table with the lazy Susan. Our host, manager, and server Julissa were very attentive and helpful. For appetizers we ordered the garlic chili crisp wontons and chin chins famous Chinese chicken salad. The wontons were juicy and had a good flavor, I would say they're not the super star item on the menu but great for groups because it comes with 10 pieces We frequent the Chin Chin in Las Vegas so we always get the Chinese chicken salad. It was easy to split between 5 people and we asked for extra wontons and rice crunchies to give it that extra texture and kick. Cant go wrong with this and definitely a staple every time we come here! For our mains we ordered the honey walnut shrimp, orange chicken, eggplant tofu, yangs fried rice, green beans, and Mongolian beef. For the honey walnut shrimp I'll say the sauce was light (not heavy) and portion overall is smaller compared to other restaurants I frequent, I'm happy to have tried it but will stick to other items on the menu. Mongolian beef had incredible flavor and will be something I would like to order every single time I go here My family loves the orange chicken and it has great flavor and sauce profile. Very popular with my group. Yangs fried rice comes with pork and shrimp and had no soy sauce. A good dish to entertain the crowd and use for carbs with the mains. Eggplant tofu was good- but I prefer a specific type of texture that wasn't accomplished at this restaurant. But great veggie option for vegetarians and those that want extra vegetables in their meals. Green beans were perfect- loved the garlicky sauce it came with and could eat the whole plate! For dessert my mom got the churros that came with raspberry sauce, chocolate, and caramel sauce. 10/10 so warm crunchy and the sauces were a nice touch This is definitely a go to place for family dinners, luncheons. I've only ever gone in large groups and enjoyed the dinner here. Thanks for a great birthday experience for my family!

    One last ride in the Sunset plaza closing next week had to visit them one last time again another wonderful meal at a wonderful location you'll be missed chin chin sunset plaza

    The fabulous Chin Chin Chinese Chicken salad (this is a 1/2 order). Delicious.

    Chin Chin recently announced that this iconic location is closing soon, at the end of July 2025. For all practical purposes, this famous Los Angeles restaurant invented the classic Chinese Chicken Salad, or at the very least made it famous. Some sources say it was Sylvia Wu who created this dish at her long gone restaurant Madame Wu's Garden in Santa Monica for her friend, the actor Cary Grant, in the 1960s or 70s. But no one does a Chinese Chicken Salad like Chin Chin. They have perfected the light and tangy salad dressing (there's nothing like it) and have been making this version since 1983; it's still the best. The restaurant currently has plans to close this Sunset Plaza location in late July and I'll miss it as it has been here for several decades. Lots of free, easy parking in back, nice unpretentious ambiance on the outside patio, heat lamps on cold days and nights with great people and car watching as it's right on Sunset Boulevard. Comfy indoor seating as well. I find the service always to be excellent and they've really upped their game; the food really is as fresh and good as it used to be! They have always made very good dim sum (try the Szechuan Dumplings that come with a savory cilantro sauce) and the menu has grown quite varied and substantial over the years. The lunch specials are an especially good value. I'm currently obsessed with their version of General Tso's chicken. It's really good!

    Night market noodles
    alexandra k.

    I was craving green beans and noodles and felt that the Night Market noodles and Szechuan green beans would hit the spot, but unfortunately these missed the mark. Szechuan is known for its bold flavors and spicy kick, and the green beans were neither of these. They were overall undersalted. They were cooked al dente (with a bite) which I liked, and had a decent garlic flavor. The Night Market noodles also lacked rhe spicy the description claimed and without it, there was nothing to counter balance the sweetness. The vegetables were fresh, and I liked the addition of cilantro and the added texture of crispy shallots and garlic. I wanted to like it, but was unimpressed.

    Garlic Chili Crisp Wontons

    While visiting WeHo, friend was craving dim sum but after striking out multiple times, we ended up here. We did not need a reservation for weekday dinner time. We got the garlic chili crisp wontons, bbq spare ribs, lo mein, crispy spicy honey chicken. I think my favorite dish was the spicy honey chicken and the crispy wontons. Bbq spare ribs were a bit hard to eat. I wish I had gotten the fried rice instead of the lo mein- wasn't as flavorful as I would've wanted. Service was nice. Bill came out to about $160.

    Chin Chin Chinese Chicken Salad

    Bf was craving their Chinese chicken salad so we had to visit before this location closed. Not going to lie, haven't been back for 20 years probably. Service was great. Shrimp toast was an interesting app, I enjoyed it. He enjoyed his Chinese chicken salad the most. Good Dan Dan noodle but didn't realize it came with ground meat so had to send it back as I don't eat meat. It was fine without meat, not the best Dan Dan.

    I found chin chin to be very average in all ways. We went on a weekday night and the place was pretty empty we found street parking out front. The service at chin chin was very mediocre and average. Our server had pretty bland service and sometimes smack the dishes onto the table not sure why. The place is ok looking and was empty inside as people people choose to sit out on the patio. We did order a lot of things but none of the food was anything special. Some items were better than other but pretty much everything across the board was not great but not horrible. Things I recommend: Garlic Chili Crisp Wontons General TSO Chicken With Chicken Breast Crispy Spicy Honey Shrimp Peanut Noodles With Shrimp (This was the best thing we ate) You Can Skip: Szechuan Dumplings Chinese Chicken Salad Mongolian Style Beef Fried Rice Wanted to try the shrimp toast but they were out of it. Most of the food was very average and not sure we would give it another try as the service and food were both mediocre.

    Lo Mein

    I used to visit this location often many years ago and it brings back great memories but nothing like the memories of how good the food is. It's probably mine and my kids' favorite restaurant ever. We used to always share the Chin Chin Chinese Chicken Salad and the dumplings when they were little. Today I brought a new family member since we were visiting Hollywood and she enjoyed it as much as I hoped she would. We came for lunch and was able to sit outside. The weather was perfect with a beautiful view. I have never received anything except superb service including this visit and the food was as good as I remember. I will not wait so long to come back next time.

    It's been two years since I've been to this location. I came here around Covid and fell in love with their fried rice. Simple but delicious. But todayyyy, today was even better. Our server Nectaly recommended the dumplings and let me tell you! 11/10! It was so juicy and flavorful. Maybe my favorite thing on the menu. Even though it's an appetizer. I added some chili oil and bam! It was delicious! I asked for more recommendations and the manager said he loves the Pad Thai, and I can see why. Oh sooo good. My fiancé loves the orange chicken and ribs. We definitely have different cravings, so it worked out. Food portions? VERY GENEROUS. We came on a Sunday- so when we pulled up and seeing how packed it was (1:30), it made us want to dine in. The vibes were top tier. Perfect weather and outdoor seating. My top compliment would be the staff. Everyone was soooo friendly and welcoming. They all were so happy, which means they're being taken good care of. And I love that. The manger Sergio was also so sweet. Great energy and humor.

    John M.

    FOOD: absolutely delicious! Portion size is too kind. I love the orange chicken and dumplings! Service: 10/10! Everyone is so welcoming and nice. Love all the smiles and energy. Sergio and Nectaly were so good to us. They made the whole experience for me. Ambiance: I love the vibes here. Love the outdoor seating and atmosphere. Highly recommend sitting outside. Enjoy the wind and people watching. Parking: parking in the park. Free Prices: very reasonable. Especially for the location. Bonus * Request for the hot oil- it'll change your life. ;)

    Mongolian Beef, Dan Dan Spicy Noodles

    First time at Chin Chin and I was thoroughly impressed. The food was great and really enjoyed everything we ordered. We had the Garlic Chili Crisp Wontons and Famous Chinese Chicken Salad as shareable dishes. Then we ordered the Mongolian Beef with White rice and the Dan Dan Spicy Noodles - DO NOT SLEEP ON THESE!!! I think the most impressive part of the night was our server, Cam. He ran through the entire menu with us, gave us recommendations, which all hit, and was on it with the service. If you get him, you're going to be in good hands. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and would love to come back here soon.

I entered my order for the grilled cheese sandwich, but when I backed out to the main menu to add the wings, the order was canceled and I had to start over.

    A very small restaurant along 3rd ave in the Beverly Grove area. Only metered-street parking…read moreavailable. The outside of the restaurant is nicely decorated, so it's easy to spot. The music they were playing was too loud to enjoy a meal there, so I got it to-go. You can order online, at the kiosk tablet or talk with a staff member to place your order. Right off the bat, I noticed that they do not list the price of the menu items on the menu. I ordered 2 tacos (Galbi and the Bulgogi) and OMGEE, my eyes were shocked to see the bill of $37.13. Anyway, since it's my 1st time here, I thought, "ok, let's just try it and see if the quality and/or portion justifies the price. 1. Galbi Tacos (3.5/5): Galbi is basically marinated short ribs that's diced up. The flavor of the meat itself was good - tender, flavorful and slightly charred. It is topped heavily with a bed of Cole slaw, onion, cilantro and some creamy, tangy mayo-like sauce. I think the amount of toppings outweigh the meat portions, so it's not well-balanced at all. 2. Bulgogi Tacos (3.5/5) Rating the bulgogi meat itself, I would give it a 4 out of 5 stars, as the thinly sliced rib eye was marinated well in the bulgogi seasoning, which is umami-rich, garlicky and nutty from the sesame oil & sesame seeds. Like the other taco, the ratio of meat to toppings (slaw, onion, cilantro) is off. Of note, the corn tortilla for the tacos were very dry and easily tore apart, so it made eating the tacos super messy and quite a pain since they do not give you any utensils. I ended up ditching the taco shells and just eating the insides. Lastly, the limes they gave me with my tacos were completely dried, rendering them useless to dress my tacos (smirk). Even though each taco order comes with 2 tacos, $18/order for street-taco truck quality tacos and where the amount of Cole slaw outweighs the amount of meat ... this is just a bit too much. Sorry to say, but I will not be coming back. There's too many other restaurants in the area competing for my business.

I've been coming here for the past two years, and their quality is stayed consistently high, if not even improving!

Those buns were hard and one bite into the thing, I spit it out. My kid did the same thing. How in the world do you mess up BBQ Pork?! I love me some hole in the walls, but sorry I wouldn't recommend this place.
