It's very unassuming from the outside since it's in a strip mall but the inside makes you forget where you are. Cucumber salad was great. Chow mein & fried rice could do no wrong. The real star of our meal was the honey walnut shrimp, we couldn't get enough. We tried the orange chicken was good but not what the kids expected. It had a very good fresh orange flavor with a slight spice. We came in on a Tuesday night & it was empty so the service was fast. Staff were great & patient. Overall, we would come again & try a couple different protein options.

Everything we ordered was really good, but the Pad Thai is still my favorite! It was a bit busier on a Friday night, but we still got seated fairly quickly. The service was good, and of course, the Thai tea is a must every single time! Great service and good ambiance.

If you come for one dish, order the eggplant tofu ($16.95). It comes with fried tofu, eggplant,…read morebasil leaves, bell pepper and garlic. The dish itself isn't very saucy, but it's so good. The eggplant is cubed and stir fried which gives it a dense, thick texture. The tofu is perfectly crispy. Whatever sauce used is slightly sweet with tons of umami flavor. It's exceptionally good and it's the kind of dish that doesn't need any sort of meat. Ten. I also very much loved the spicy pad Thai ($16.95). We added the colossal prawns for like $7.00. The pad Thai was phenomenal - al dente noodles with just the right amount of spice, but the prawns were just a great additional to an already good dish. Come to Kin for a solid Thai food experience.

My husband loves an early dinner after work so this works perfect. Althoug they offer many items for their lunch soecials, we always go back to our two usuals! Mangolian Beef and Walnut Shrimp!

We came home with enough for at least one more meal. Service is alway excellent. Seated right away. Order taken when you are ready. Food comes out quickly and freshly prepared. Don was our server, very friendly and attentive. Nomad will always be one of our favorites. We have been coming here for at least 14 yrs!

So incredibly tasty, piping hot, good sized portions. The service is always really attentive and the whole 2nd and PCH area is such a cool ambiance. After this visit, I honestly think this may be one of my top 5 favorite restaurants. We like asking the servers for their dish recommendations and ordering those, which is why we've tried so many different things and you can't go wrong with a single dish!

Service was OK. Came in on a Monday at opening, and while the server was extremely polite, the lack of customers on the floor meant they were not on the floor often. Had to get up twice to ask for items Overall I do like this place; even though the pricing rivals similar XLB/Modern Chinese locations, I would consider stopping in to try.

This is the place I once had food up in the past, and since I moved here, I haven't had it until…read morelast weekend. I was definitely feeling Chinese and didn't want to go to my regular place. I wanted to find out if this spot was as good as I had remembered it. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I was practically disappointed by two out of the three dishes. Two of them that should've been the best. I'll start out with the Mongolian beef. There was plenty of meat and onions and green onions, but there was no kick to it, not the greatest flavor either. It was also a little watery, which was a major letdown for me. I was really looking forward to enjoying it with the white rice that came with it. Next up was the chicken chow mein. I was expecting to have long noodles in its to go box but when I was eating it, it was small noodle cuts. That was a bit shocking for me. It also didn't have a lot of great flavor, and again I was let down. I did get vegetable fried rice, because who could actually screw that up. It was the best dish out of the three. Not a ton of flavor in it but enough for me to actually enjoy it. I tried using the leftover chow mein by putting it in a skillet and adding a few spices and oils. It improved it just a little bit, but not enough. Clearly, I can't go back here. It's like they say: buy cheap get cheap.

By far the best Chinese restaurant in the city of Long Beach. I was told to come here on the advice…read moreof one of my clients. She did not let me down as we walked in and noticed how truly authentic it was going to look. Chinese decor on the walls and boxes of restaurant supples in the corners. Just as it should be. The bonus was that they had a TV showing the NBA Finals when we arrived. Pretty nice touch and in the back of the restaurant so as not to distract everyone. We went with a couple of our favorite dishes to run along and the Chicken Lo Mein was pretty good. Crispy pieces of chicken and soft noodles and veggies to go with it. We chose to get Mongolian Beef and it was absolutely fantastic. Crispy celery, green onions and decent sized pieces of meat in a terrific sauce. I would love to try to replicate that. My wife wanted a shrimp dish so she ordered the honey walnut and it even looked good to me when they brought it. She loves egg rolls, so she got a four piece and said they were pretty good. My biggest wow of the visit was their vegetable fried rice. MY GOD. I dont know what they season or flavor it with, but every fork full of rice that i ate, it was this sense of flavor that reminded me of butter or something else. I really loved the sensation i experienced from this particular dish. I am really curious on what it actually is. I will definitely be ordering out or coming in for Chinese because that reminded of many other places that put out fantastic dishes.

Lunch comes with steamed rice but for $2 more per person, we opted for fried rice. The fried rice came first and the wonderful aroma matched its delicious flavor. I was very happy that they had mushu pork since not too many Chinese restaurants offer this dish anymore. It did not disappoint. The pork chop was very crispy and tasted so good. The roast duck noodle soup was packed with duck meat which was tender and moist. Service was quick and efficient. Prices were reasonable. I was pleasantly surprised how good this restaurant was. Will definitely be back.

Well, I figure before I start on the new pile of reviews I need to write from my road trip, I…read moreshould probably also finish the reviews I needed to write from *before* my road trip, like this relatively nearby Thai place we went to now about 3 months ago, that I wrote down notes for and never posted, cause life is overwhelming. Anyway, now about 3 months ago... we were here around lunchtime on a Saturday, cause we were in the area, and hadn't tried it yet. Service was great with one weight hiccup. We sat down and had water in front of us and our order taken basically immediately. Ordered a pad se ew, khao soi ($16 each for the entrees), and a large Thai tea ($7) to share. The pad ke mow and the Thai tea came out basically immediately. We'd already drunk all our water and had someone come back out to refill it, when the khao soi showed up about 15 minutes later with no mention of the delay. (We also got our check and paid quickly when we were done. Dunno what happened with the khao soi.) The Thai tea was great, and if you're sharing it with someone, 7 bucks is a great price for basically two Thai teas. The pad se ew - the first dish we always judge a Thai place on, being one of both of our favorite Thai dishes - was excellent. Great noodles, perfectly cooked and seasoned, with plenty of Chinese broccoli (I always like to call out the places that use inferior, wrong American broccoli instead, as was *not* the case here). 16 bucks, but that seems to be the going rate these days for Thai food (I remember when it was like half that much...), and you get a good portion. Good portion on the khao soi too. Wonderfully delicious crispy chicken, and a good amount of it. Great curry. Slightly too many crispy noodles, slightly not enough of the regular king - noodle-wise, just ok. In terms of khao soi, ST Noodle is definitely still the gold standard, with Thai District in 2nd. This could be 3rd, though. "Medium" spicy also wasn't very spicy - my wife liked it; I liked it a lot more after adding a bunch of chili sauce.

But this place is a must. You know what to expect and the food is alway great so to be a regular is nice. Every time we stop by, there not usually a wait time even though it's pretty lively. We alway get seated pretty fast. The place isn't too big but decent in size with two sections available. Staff are alway so friendly and welcoming. That's a good sign and of course the food, another reason why we come here whenever we're in the area. I have my usual that's a must for me as I know what to expect. We tend to go with either their larb or papaya salad which both dish are quite tasty and flavorful. Spice level to your liking. This visit, the larb. Always served with a wedge of cabbage. The flavor is alway great and every bite, flavorful. Of course the only place that I alway get the boat noodles. I've had it at other places but this is my favorite in Long Beach. The broth is great and thick with all the meat. Chinese broccoli accompanied as well. It's comfort food and alway hits the spots. This time we've tried another dish that we've never had. The chili garlic fish with rice. We were informed that it would take about 15 minutes which was fine. Deep fried sole fillets with garlic and chili sauce served on top a bed of mixed salad. First off, there was loads of fish and it was quite tasty and the sauce, it was good. A dish that was quite tasty and great for sharing. Overall, the food has alway been great and service has always been excellent. Each and every meal have always been enjoyed. It's our go to in Long Beach.

Update: came in for a lunch special with my wife and her mom, and the food tasted different (quite…read morea bit better than when we were here the last two times). The lunch special provides generous portions, with plenty to bring back. What really stood out, was how conscientious, attentive, and polite both the waitress and host were to us. As we were leaving, my wife asked the host if there had been a change in ownership or chef recently...he seemed puzzled, saying it's been the same for the past many years (family owned and operated). L17. General Tso's Chicken ($12.75) L18. Shredded Pork with Garlic Sauce ($12.75) L25. Shrimp with Snow Peas ($13.75) All the lunch specials come with choice of soup (egg drop or sweet and sour), egg roll, and choice of carb (steamed rice, fried rice, noodle). Since we ordered three dishes, got to try all of the additions. I liked both the soups. The egg roll was served hot out of the fryer, but had the typical mushy 'La Choy' frozen egg roll filling that I dislike. The noodles were more like spaghetti noodles than lo mein. The fried rice was simple, with just egg added (which was fine). As for the main dishes, all the ingredients and sauces were solid. The seafood dish came in a white sauce which was OK, but had plenty of shrimp, water chestnuts, and peas. The chicken dish was good since it was served fresh, with the typical food service provider dark meat chicken chunks. The garlic sauce in the shredded pork was good, and something we would get again in other dishes. The pork was all loin and would be a good base for other dishes as well.
