    Great food with huge portion at a very reasonable price. Had enough to last me the whole day, lunch and dinner.

    Helll to the nahhh. This ain't Gourmet lol Cash only, there's atm machine inside charges 1.89 No where r sit down Food quality ain't there chief Orange chicken? More like sugar chicken Chow mein tasted saltier then the ocean itself. The ladies have soo much sass, I don't recommend spending your money here.

    Metal wire in my food. Was wrapped in the celery.

    Found a metal piece of wire in my food. Very dangerous, I could have choked. Even worst, could have fed my daughter with it. I don't recommend a un careful, unsanitary place like this.

    I've been going to this place since I was a kid. They've had the same owners for at least 20 years. Lady with the huge bangs and visor was there, berating a new lady working there, in Chinese - like always. This place has never been great but it's convenient. Typical of Chinese fast food places, they fill up the two compartments with chow mein to avoid having to give you ACTUALLY what you pay for with a 1 or 2 item combo. I usually get honey walnut shrimp from this other place in Downey off of Imperial and Clark - and their food is AMAZING. Very generous and always tasty, but I thought I'd give Chinese Gourmet a shot with THEIR walnut shrimp. I asked for it and asked how long it would take, bangs lady said "5 minutes" it took way longer than that. I also asked how much it was, she said $11.99. that's over $13 with tax but I thought "ok, I'll give them a shot". I asked how much I was getting and bangs lady pointed to the large side order container. I thought "ok, at least it's a lot". I take it home and it's got WAY too much mayo and the candied walnuts they used were too sugary. I figured it's my fault, but at least I know not to order it. To my surprise, I got down to the bottom third of the takeout container and it was filled with fried chow mein noodles. I know times are tough right now but this is pathetic.

    This is one of those spots for me. I have been coming here for about 10 years now. I am not around this area much anymore but one thing is for sure Chinese Gourmet hasn't changed, consistently putting out the same quality, amount and in the same building. Now to the food..... Cheap and large amounts! The take out foam boxes are stuffed with your choice of entrees with fried rice/ noodles (typical Chinese take out style). Its not your quality place it is definitely your quantity place. The price is reflecting of this as well. For me I know I not going to taste high quality food and really its almost a local deal if I am in the area. The one hit for everyone and myself is the Jalapeño Chicken, I can say this is in my section every time. Note: CASH ONLY

    I have loved this place since I was a kid and nothing ever beats this place! It's good and they give you a lot of food. I don't think it's pricey. I think it's fine for the amount of food you get. Their black pepper chicken is so good too! Quick service as well, I'll always be coming back!

    This is one of our all time favorites. We get the char chicken, Orange chicken, Mushroom chicken,…read moreGreen bean chicken, mixed vegetables as a side if you get 2 items. Good chow mein! Our hands down favorite is the 3 flavor soup. It is awesome for cool weather, really anytime. Mushrooms, celery, broccoli, carrots, shrimp, chicken, and BBQ pork. Not tips and slices, and leftovers-nice sized chunks and pieces. This soup stands alone as a meal on it's own-and is filling. If you look at Pho restaurant prices, the 3 flavor soup is a better deal and a satisfying meal. April 2026 is chilly, get the soup, and be content, and full! If you try it once, I bet you'll have a new favorite. My wife loves it. I order no chow mein in the soup for low carbs. Served HOT. Pretty nice and decent indoor dining area for a takeout place- with marble table tops, and comfy seats, asian style wall images make it nice. Unlike some chinese places, they have a bathrooms for customers-helpful. Cold stone next door makes it a "one Plaza tummy pleaser!"

    I've been coming to this place for 10 years. The food is still good to me but the portion suck now…read more Before they use to hook it up we're you can barely shut the lid and then be full and still have food left over. But through out the years you see new worker's were they only give you about 2 scoop of food witch is nothing. Now I finished the food and still be hungry. So the 2 stars is for putting me on a diet.

    I walked into "Woks Deli" like a woman on a mission. I told them straight up, "I am looking for…read moregood Chinese food." No small talk. No flirting. This was a food emergency. Because let me tell you... it has been a **long, long time** since I've had Chinese food that made me believe in love again. Then the food came out. The rice? STICKY...PERFECTLY STICKY!!! Perfect. MOIST, not mushy... just minding its business and being amazing. Like, where have you been all my life? Why did you let me suffer like that? And the sweet and sour pork... listen... crispy on the outside, tender on the inside... it had layers. Emotional layers. I wasn't just eating, I was healing. The Broccoli and beef...game changer. The broccoli had a fresh snap to it mmmm fresh! But what blew me away was the beef, it resembled Wagu meet. So tender so flavorful. I was sitting there, slowly munching my night away, completely unbothered, living my best life like I had just found inner peace... in a takeout container, but better, it was on a plate! At one point I literally thought, "Is this what happiness tastes like?" Because I was in full "Wok Deli" Chinese style. No passport, no jet lag, just vibes. I didn't want to leave. I considered ordering more just to stay longer like, "Don't rush me, I'm having a moment." If you've been out here struggling like I have, eating mediocre Chinese food and pretending it's okay... stop. Go here. Fix your life. 10/10. Came for food, left emotionally fulfilled.

    If you're looking for a high-end dining experience, this isn't it. However, if you're looking for…read moregood, fresh food served with enthusiasm, then give this place a try. It originally struck me as ordinary, and my expectations weren't high. But my opinion changed when I walked out. The honey walnut shrimp was excellent, and I can't wait to try the other dishes I took home. What struck me most was the fact that the woman serving the food greeted so many people with familiarity and verve. She knew people's orders, habits, attire... And this was all within the short 30 minutes I sat down to dine. It is obviously a regular place for many people. What prompted my review was that, even though yesterday had been the first time I'd been there, she treated ME like I was also a regular, sending me out the door with a stack of almond cookies I didn't order. This place isn't terribly convenient to my regular drives, but I may just become a regular, too.

    I'm back enjoying this delicious food on this beautiful Mother's Day 5-10-2026…read more As always this og spot is clean and although a bit eclectic this is a true mom and pop with a flair for solid good fresh made food without all of the fluff. The staff is welcoming and lowkey in this restaurant, place your order you can sit inside the restaurant or in your car while the order is made in a timely manner. Today's order is my favorite Shrimp Fried Rice and Fried Shrimp. Shrimp Fried Rice Tender shrimp and fried rice seasoned well with extra green onions. it's very good and some of the best fried rice I have eaten in the city of Long Beach. 10/10 Fried Shrimp Crispy clean so tasty and the bomb .com they're very good with the sweet and sour sauce. 10/10 Pepsi A can an of Pepsi served on ice is a perfect beverage and refreshing drink to enjoy with salty spicy and seasoned food. Please see my prior reviews for more in depth detailed information regarding other food items pictures menu's and recommendations. The portions are large enough for 2 1/2 servings and everything is fresh made to order. The food is delicious. What more do you want . Until next time. Shawn C.

    My mom wanted Chinese food for her birthday dinner. We only knew about this place due to social…read moremedia. We decided to try it out as we normally go to the same one or two places. It's in a small strip mall and doesn't look like much from the outside. Not very big inside. Fortunately we arrived early as it continued to get busier while we were there... We got the "family deal" which was $18.50 per person and that included 1 entree each, soup, 1 egg roll, 2 fried shrimp and fried rice. We also added an order of chow mein. It was a LOT of food. We had a ton of leftovers. It'll probably get us another 1-2 meals each! I thought that was a great deal. My mom enjoyed it a lot (which was the goal and what mattered!). My husband and daughter enjoyed it as well. I'm not super into Chinese food but thought it was fine. (I actually prefer leftover cold Chinese food). One thing that stood out and I really liked was that they serve a plate of crunchy chow mein noodles to start. I haven't seen that in quite some time. We like dipping them in sweet and sour sauce; although I didn't care that much for theirs, it was very runny, I like a thicker consistency.
