2 item combo orange chicken, coconut shrimp with chow mein
Elizabeth M.

First time here and let me say that we will be back!! Huge portions a little pricey 15.00 for 2 item combo but it's worth it. Very clean inside and in the same building there is a donut shop. I think same owner. Food was delicious

Combo C

Definitely not the same food , nothing is the same. Must have changed owners. Pork is now in a weird sauce. Orange chicken tastes like straight sugar.

China Wok Inn is my favorite place for Chinese food. We usually order from the a la carte dishes and the servings are huge.

Dry teriyaki chicken we choked on.

Been going here for years but today I'm sure they have changed ownership because eww. The teriyaki chicken was dry. The rice was dry. The noodles were yucky. Orange chicken did not taste like orange chicken. Prices went up and quality went down. Sorry to say after all these years it's time to move on. I will never go back.

Black pepper chicken combo A SMACKING MOMMAS

Been coming here since i was 7 . I remember when there was a little Caesars pizza across the street along with Club Metro the old dollar store indoor swapmeet old babk of america, mr taco before the fire..amongst other things that came and went. Alot has changed in this area but this place has survived for sure, this Chinese food spot is legendary. Iconic come here. Eat here. Stick to what ur familiar with

Two item combo. Half orange chicken, half pepper chicken ($5.99+tax)

Big Sky was my **go-to Chinese food spot in Riverside** for years. **Then tonight happened.** I placed a DoorDash pickup order at their new location -- sweet and sour pork, beef chow fun, beef porridge, pork and shrimp siu mai, and white rice. They even threw in extra rice, and I was genuinely excited to dig in. That excitement ended the moment I looked down at my bowl and found a **MAGGOT sitting on top of my rice.** I called the restaurant immediately and calmly explained what happened. They told me to contact DoorDash since that's how I ordered. Fine. I reported it through DoorDash's platform and waited. Then I got a call back from DoorDash -- not to help me, but to relay a message: **Big Sky had contacted them specifically to refuse my refund.** Let that sink in. A customer found a maggot in their food, couldn't eat a single bite of a $54.19 order, and the restaurant's response was to **actively call DoorDash to make sure I didn't get my money back.** I understand that occasionally bugs happen in food service. It's gross, but I was fully prepared to move on had they simply taken responsibility. Instead, they chose to fight a $54 refund over a maggot. That tells you everything you need to know about how this restaurant values its customers. **Eat here at your own risk -- and if something's wrong, you're on your own.**

I was really craving Chinese food since I'm away from home, so my friend and I decided to try…read moresomewhere new and came across Jade China. I'm honestly really glad we did. The restaurant itself is super spacious, and since we came at kind of an odd time after the lunch rush, it was really calm and relaxing inside. We ordered the Salt and Pepper Calamari, and it was really good. The calamari was crispy, lightly seasoned, and still tender inside, which made it super satisfying to eat. I do wish it came with a dipping sauce, but we already had sweet and sour sauce on the table and ended up using that instead, which actually paired really well with it. We also got the Chicken Pad Thai, which honestly impressed me a lot. The portion size was huge for the price, I think it was around $12-13, which felt really worth it for how much food we got. The noodles were flavorful, well cooked, and had a good balance of savory and slightly sweet flavors without feeling too heavy. The people working there were really welcoming and kind, and it felt like a family-run restaurant, which made the experience feel even more comforting and homey.

March 2026 Came in…read moreon a Sunday craving mapo tofu. I checked the menu and there it was. Service: typical Chinese restaurant. Don't expect refills or conversations about the day or the meaning of life. Bathroom: clean. Toilet and a urinal. Food: Before my main course arrived, I was served a small cup of egg drop soup and some crispy noodles with some type of sweet dipping sauce. Considering these were complimentary, I'm not going to complain. Soup was my okay. my mapo tofu came with a side of white rice. Upgrading to brown or fried rice will cost you an additional $1. This is the most bizarre mapo tofu I've ever had. Rather than the traditional ground pork and wood ear mushrooms, this came with long strips of fried pork and no mushrooms. I'm also used to thicker sauce, but this one was very watery. A tad spicy, but not over bearing. Maybe a recipe from a different Provence of china? Not what I was looking for. $15.00 later and a fortune cookie...and I was done. Not sure if I'd come here for the mapo tofu again. Others in the restaurant offered the 2-3 item combos. Typical orange chicken or Kung Pao chicken w rice or chow mein. Not my thing.

HK BBQ House beats every Chinese restaurant near where I live in Gardena. I will drive the distance…read morewhich is over an hour just to get their food. The service is quick, the food is excellent!!!! It is a hole-in-the-wall type of eatery, but these are the gems you always look for! The food is made with a lot of love. My favorite is their roasted duck noodle soup. The crispy pork belly is my second choice, followed by the roasted duck, but EVERYTHING they serve is top notch! I will miss coming here since I came here while completing my degree. There is no restaurant so far that can compare to HK BBQ House. Simply amazing!

Some of the food we got was good, some was okay. I think Mongolian beef is worth it and personally,…read moreI liked the house special fried rice. It was not too loud in there and the place was relatively empty so that was nice. Biggest disappointment was service, because our table ordered chow mein and the waiter brought us chow fun (flat noodles with gravy). When we told him that we ordered chow mein, he told us that what we ordered was chow fun, so I showed him what we ordered on the menu and he said "you wanted lo mein". While I get that, he spent a minute trying to figure out where the item was and couldn't find it. I reviewed pics on here and it seems like other people got the thick yellow noodles for chow mein. Anyway, they replaced it for us but I overheard the waiter tell his manager that we ordered chow fun by accident. The manager then told us something about "our mistake" upon paying, placing blame on us . The manager was nice about it, but we repeatedly told the waiter chow mein and he kept correcting us to chow fun. Also, there is a section of the menu labeled chow mein and a separate page labeled chow fun. I think I know what we ordered. Disappointing.
