Chicken Chow Mein Broccoli Beef Teriyaki Chickenteriyaki

Betsabe H.

My heart breaks because my intention isn't to put down a small business but I had high hopes based on the reviews. As another reviewer pointed out, the chow mien was more veggies than noodles without any flavor and mostly salted. I love chow mien so I was looking forward to it. I really was. But it didn't meet my expectations. The food was overcooked and I got half and half, beef broccoli, and chicken teriyaki. I was grateful to have food but it wasn't what I thought it would be. The lady was so friendly and happy to serve but I think they need to double check the cooking process.

Imitation "Orange Chicken", 90% dough 10% chicken

Diego O.

Chicken is not chicken. 90% dough of some kind that mimics the look of chicken, spongy nasty feeling texture. This is becoming Chinese Food standard, but this place took it to a Whole Other Level. Just sad.

Angel V.

The wonton soup was on point and always hot and fresh. You can call ahead to place an order to go and they serve you a good amount.

This place has the best fried rice in town. I went here on a fluke and glad I stumbled in. Whenever I'm in the area I have to stop here. They give you a healthy portion and it's very flavorful. Also had the beef and broccoli which was very tender.

YOOO I been coming here ever since I was little!! Let me tell you--they NEVERRRR MISS! Man the barbeque pork is the best barbeque pork EVER, it had to be said! with the fried rice it doesn't get better than that.. I know it's looks like the most unassuming place ever but mannn this spot hits like no other. & these portions can easily be shared or saved for later! amazing! When I went in today I kid you not I walked out of there under less than a minute. SERVICE WAS THAT QUICK!! & the lady was smiling the whole time! the best hole in the wall ever

Small but mighty! Small but mighty is my description for Chinese Deli. This small spot in Carson has some mighty delicious food! One can easily miss the tiny building that houses Chinese Deli. It would definitely be sad though to miss out on this place because they offer some delicious food for good prices! A combo with two entrees, fried rice and chow mein runs for under $13. Entrees include yummy dishes like Orange Chicken, Mushroom Chicken, Teriyaki Chicken and BBQ Pork. Aside from entrees; one can get sides like egg rolls or soups such as Wonton Soup and Hot and Sour Soup. I found the food here quite tasty! I enjoyed the BBQ pork. It was good in flavor and was very tender. I also liked the Mushroom Chicken. I found it to be quite savory and paired well with the fried rice. One other thing I noticed here is they are continuously cooking and so you are sure to be getting fresh food. Sometimes for small places; food can sit for hours under the heat lamp. That is not the case here as I personally saw them bringing out newly prepared food from the kitchen. This place may not look like that much from the outside but I highly recommend checking this place out for their mighty delicious food

Small standalone store, set-up with prepared food in steam trays that you pick from....just like a lot of other fast food chinese places all over LA. It's a stand alone building with some parking, as well as spaces in the back of the nearby KFC (there are no signs threatening towing if you park there as a non-KFC customer, so the businesses must get along OK). We were doing some errands in the area, and this place got good reviews, so decided to stop-in for dine-in. There isn't much room inside, but there are a few tables set-up to the side for dine in. It is a Panda-Express/Hong Kong Express set-up, where there are already food prepared that you choose from. Usually a 2 or 3 entree combo can be shared between us, so got the two item combo plate ($13.47) with half fried rice and half chow mein adding broccoli beef and teriyaki chicken. One impressive thing was that the fried rice had bbq pork in it, instead of it just being plain. Portions are large, and everything tasted OK. Drinks are cans only ($1.79). It was quite busy while we were there, and everybody chose something from the steam trays, so the food seemed to be turning over pretty fast.

Miles above your typical American style Chinese restaurant. Staff is welcoming, kind, and considerate. The food is very yummy - pork is cooked thoughtfully and without pork smell, noodles have that char flavor you come to expect without a ton of grease, and the fried rice is well seasoned but not overcooked. The staff even helped me carry out items to the car - I am astounded at the level of service. Look forward to the next time I come here! read more

First time here in a looong time. Food overcooked, or possibly it was under the heat lamp too long. Broccoli was soft, you'd expect a little crunch from a stir fry entree. Noodles? Soft. Not chewy as expected for chow mein, or any noodle dish. Rice wasn't prepared correctly for the specific purpose of being cooked as fried rice, and lacked the hint of nuttiness found in a quality offering. Beef with never ending chew rounded out the meal. Used to frequent this joint in the previous century. I remember the portions and flavor being on point. Grub good enough to keep in your rotation. Nothing on this visit reminded me of how highly I used to regard this restaurant. Nostalgia can only go so far. Anybody rating the food more than 1 star must not have any taste buds. Food = ZERO Nostalgia = 1 star read more

I used to pass this spot when I was a kid and always wondered how the food was. Today I was passing by after a Dr. appointment. Maaaan....their fried rice with BBQ pork and egg, BOMB!!! It hits the spot. Never had it nor seen it at other Chinese fast food joints as a fried rice. Definitely an upper hand for them. The orange chicken was good. The egg fooyoung was ok. A little too thick for me and dry. The gravy sauce was ok and needed more seasoning. I'm definitely coming back for the fried rice, but not the egg fooyoung. read more

Giant portions are not my criteria for rating Chinese food. I'd much rather have smaller portions of great food than humongous portions of mediocre food. Suffice it to say, we won't be back. Fried rice was mushy. The breading on the orange, chicken was very soft, not at all crisp. BBQ Pork was pretty good, not great. Chow mein tasted like dishwasher rags. Crab Rangoon were flavorless and egg rolls were bland and watery. I couldn't eat them. All in all, Chinese Deli is a big disappointment. read more

This place still has one of the best tasting bbq pork around. You just cant find the type of caramelization that Chinese Deli seemed to have in the BBQ Pork. My favorite has always been; Their Fried Rice with BBQ Pork and Sweet & Sour Sauce on top. And I slam a bunch of spicy oil with the burnt chilis on top of it ... I just cant get enough of this ...

The menu has a "New York Plate" which is a deconstructed sandwich and you build your own sandwich which is the hot tip. The way they serve the regular pastrami, all the meat is in the middle of the bread and if you just eat meat, you don't get any crust in your bite and the crust is the best part of rye bread. For my second half of the sandwich, I took out all the pastrami and used the crust like Nachos. Put pastrami on the crust. I think the Latkes are served with cream cheese instead of sour cream. It was too thick for sour cream. The waitress said its Philadelphia Sour Cream, but Philadelphia doesn't make sour cream. I think cream cheese is better than sour cream, so it was good for my non-Jewish palate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9ABnBcfDsI

It's not like anything I have ever had. Very soupy compared to traditional Shrimp and Grits and.... I loved it. So did my son because he ended up eating a good portion and left his Big Mo's sandwich. We decided to eat it in the car in the parking lot at the soccer game and damn, it was so full I almost spilled it. It is a HUGE portion and you will not be able to eat in one sitting. And again, so delicious. My son ordered the Big Mo and it was really good too. Huge portion. I was mentioning this place to some other friends and they're all like... "oh yeah, Orleans & York" like I'm the only one that didn't know. The customer service was really nice and professional. While there were only two other parties in there, we saw a lot of people coming in for pickups. Can't wait to get back here.

Why I haven't updated my review is on me... ... and so here we are! GodNiece came through and wanted to do food delivery from here. I'm so happy to learn they now have my go-to shrimp and oyster po'boy on the menu! (I had to make a special request for this on my last run since it wasn't on the menu at the time) so I went for that again. I also asked for the bread to be toasted (forgot to do that on my last run, too.) And, boy, oh, boy! They are consistent! They didn't skimp on the shrimp and the oysters, bread was perfectly toasted and kept all the ingredients in and each bite was just down right delish! And because the handheld meal was so big, I was only able to consume half and save the other for the next meal... which is when I realized I forgot to take a picture. Heh.... Hubbers, GodNiece and her husband loved their picks as well. This place is now on our list of dinner rotation for when they come through. Woohoo!

Seating inside is limited to bar stools along a long so I guess most people get their food to go.

But honestly, that's part of the charm. It's like Gardena's version of a speakeasy... except instead of cocktails, you're sneaking in for a fat Italian sandwich. Let me tell you, my Pop's Italian sandwich came out looking like it was sexy and ready to be destroyed. All grown. Mature. Responsible. This thing had layers on layers, stacked like it was trying to win a bodybuilding competition. Generous portions...Understatement. I got excited...I picked it up and immediately felt like I needed to stretch first. It's filling, flavorful, and hits you with that perfect combo of salty, savory, and "I should've worn looser clothes." Service is friendly in that classic neighborhood "G-Town" way, quick, warm, and no nonsense. They're not trying to be fancy; they're trying to feed you. And they do it well. You walk in, order, vibe for a bit, and boom, sandwich magic. By the time I finished the Pop's Italian, I had to sit in my car for a minute and reevaluate my life's next choices. Not in a bad way, more like, "Wow... I really just demolished that whole thing. Should I be proud? Should I be concerned? Should I take a nap?" "I decided to go work out rather than take a nap."

This small Chinese restaurant may not look like much from the outside, but it's a hidden gem. Located in a tiny strip with a shared parking lot next to KFC, it has only a few tables inside, giving it a cozy feel. The lady behind the counter is incredibly friendly and nice. For a fast-food-style Chinese spot, I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the two-entree combo plate with chow mein, BBQ pork, and orange chicken, and the portions were generous. The chow mein had chunks of chicken and fresh veggies, the BBQ pork was tender, juicy, and had nice charred flavor, and the orange chicken was soft on the inside with a flavorful, crispy coating. Add some sriracha and chili oil, and you've got a delicious, satisfying meal that won't break the bank. Definitely worth a visit! read more

I have been a loyal customer of Chinese Deli for over 30 years, but after my recent experience, I will not be returning. The customer service was absolutely horrible. The servers were clueless and had no idea how to assist customers. They were unresponsive and seemed completely disinterested in helping. It's disappointing to see how much the service quality has declined over the years. Today was the final straw. I can't continue to support an establishment that treats its customers so poorly. I strongly recommend finding another place to dine if you value good service. read more

I was really craving Chinese food, but unfortunately, this spot didn't meet expectations. The rice was dry, and the orange chicken was soggy with the batter falling off as I ate it, which made it hard to enjoy. I genuinely love supporting small businesses, but the food quality here just wasn't there for me. Hoping they can improve, but I probably won't be back. read more

The owner seems rude and angry. It was like she doesn't want you to order. Totally no customer service. I ordered shrimp fried rice, lo mein, and chop suey. So far, the chop suey was very salty. Lo mein was really dry. The only entree I liked was their chicken teriyaki (I think). I think Panda Express is better if you want fast chinese food read more
