Cocoin Kitchen - a bowl of chicken and rice - Chinese Near Me - Hacienda Heights, California

Great friendly service and great food in Hacienda Heights! The owners are cheerful and helpful.

First time visit this nice little place near the Hsi Lai Temple. The chicken wings were fried to perfection and the quality is fresh & good - so tasty. Was going to try their braised pork but were out. The lady boss is very friendly and accommodating. Will go back for sure to try the Hainan Chicken and other dishes. read more

Love the shrimp fried rice. Always my go to. Fast friendly service. Many other food choices but the rice is my favorite

They serve very good food. Foods are very tasty. Can customize how salty and oily you want. Emily is a good server. Talk to you nicely. Quiet place. read more

I went there strictly to try their hainanese chicken. It was ok. Nothing to brag about. The sauce was not as good though. The rice lacks a bit of the chicken broth flavor it should have. Chicken wasn't as silky smooth as i wanted it to be. Just mediocre. Won't come back again unless I have no other choice. read more

Food at this place is really delicious. No complaint. The waitress/owner is really nice too.

The best Chinese food in the area, the food is very tasty and delicious. The owner Emily and her husband are extremely amazing people you will experience the real Chinese food with great taste and flavor ! I LOVE THE FOOD read more

REMODELED and now this place looks and feels so much nicer and cleaner... Food is still good and I believe they added more items on their menu! Of course, my go-to order is hainan chicken. You can also get this in the noodle soup version! Their filet mignon cubes on red rice is good but different-- their sauce is on the sweeter side. Very friendly service but a bit slow as they are understaffed when it's crowded/lunch hour read more

Surprise surprise, this place works for those who are seeking the typical, somewhat panda style, non traditional Chinese favorites. For those of you who like orange chicken, Kung pao chicken and combination fried rice, this is your place. They recently remodeled and have provided a welcoming atmosphere. The service is friendly and the prices are affordable. There is also ample parking outside. And...they also have great lunch specials. read more

Not particularly cheap, but food quantity and quality are good here. Ordered orange chicken, yang chow fried rice, green beans, and beef fillet mignon. read more

I gave 2 stars because our waitress was friendly but the foods sucked big time. Everything we ordered was either too sweet (orange chicken) or too salty. The Hainan chicken was average but the portion was really really really small. It's 10$ and don't come with soup. only 8 small pieces ?! wtf... How this place got 4.5 stars is definitely inaccurate. I think their friends and family are probably the one who's writing the reviews. Based on my experience the foods really really sucks. 3 of our orders were part of the lunch special so it supposed to come with soup. So to our Hainan chicken but we never got soup or water refill. #Don't order the kungpao ... Only green pepper, onion in there..... Really any meats on the plate. Definitely not coming back and won't recommend anyone there. I don't want you to leave hungry and thirsty from msg. read more

Cocoin Kitchen - 10$ totaled of 8 pieces of chicken !! Less than half portion else where.. tasted lot of msg - Chinese Near Me - Hacienda Heights, California

Tried this little hole in the wall place since it was recommended by a friend. Filet mignon french style was really, house special noodle was good and their hainan chicken was super flavorful and rich and tender. Beef chow fun was beef chow fun, really can't mess it up badly. Overall, very nice and homely little place run by mom and pop, would definitely pickup dinner again and make it my weekly rotation. read more

this place was great! i crave Cantonese food often and it did not disappoint. we shared 3 dishes between two people and were very full. we ordered: hainan chicken: one of my all time favorite dishes; the flavors were great, the rice was super tasty, and the meat was tender beef w/ green beans: super tender meat, very tasty over white rice (which comes with the dish) congee w/ preserved duck egg+pork: my go-to congee. texture was a bit more runny than i'm used to but not in a bad way, and they are very generous with the pork/preserved egg :) this stuff warms the soul. pretty affordable too! i'll definitely come back if i'm in the area! read more

Small restaurant in the little corner of a shopping plaza. Didn't think much of it since my friend was bringing me here and it wasn't near the main Rowland restaurants. Was quite surprised with the Hainan Chicken. The food came out fast and we were well attended to. Definitely will come back when feeling Hainan chicken and don't want to wait for the popular 626 Hainan chicken spots read more

Prices are unreasonably high. For dinner, an order of shrimp fried rice was priced the same as an order of pepper beef. All other chinese restaurants have a lower price for a rice dish. I will have to keep looking..... read more

Cluck-to-go's competition! Tried their signature Hainan chicken rice and it's definitely legit and authentic. The Laksa Chicken noodle is surprisingly good - soup is spicy and flavorful; consistency of the noodles is perfect. We also ordered The appetizer salt and pepper tofu. Crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside. Great service too! Would visit again. read more

Hainan chicken is so clean and delicious. The meat is nice and succulent. The sauces are the perfect compliment to the dish. I've tried others, but this one just can't be beat. The couple that run the business are always super nice and welcoming. read more

Great food and fast service . Every time I am in town I must stop and enjoy their food .

Great restaurant to go. Whole in Hacienda Heights. It maybe hard to find if you don't know the area, but is worth it. Must try the stew pork. read more

My family's go-to Hainan chicken place. My husband is Cantonese and my mother-in-law is a chef so they know Cantonese food. They found this place and it's been our regular spot for Hainan chicken. Their Hainan chicken is great -flavorful yet clean tasting. Other dishes are tasty too. read more

Yummy Hainan Chicken soup noodles. Very clean tasting chicken and soup. Such a delicious meal!

Yum!!! Everything we had was delicious. Salt & Peoper Tofu, Porridge, Chinese Donuts, Snow Pea Leaves, Chow Mein. All so good! Very clean and they are super-nice too :) read more

Had high hopes for this restaurant and ordered Hainan chicken rice for take out. When I pick up my order, they're playing Fox News garbage on their television. Ironic how a restaurant full of immigrants would air xenophobic cable TV that slanders immigrants. I tell the cashier the problem with playing right-wing fake news in a community of immigrants and she understood but just didn't say much. The Hainan chicken rice was oversalted and tasted overcooked. It had a rubber-like texture and made the meal unpleasant. Had to spit out a few pieces too. It sounds like they are still playing that Fox trash in the restaurant. In addition to their bad food, they don't listen to their customers either. read more

Came here for lunch on a weekday with my parents, and it was almost empty. It's tucked away in one of the plazas on Colima, and definitely wouldn't have ever found it were it not for Yelp. We ordered dishes across the menu, but they do have a lunch special menu with items at $8.95. Everything we ordered (fried chicken wings, a stew pot, a fish dish) were tasty, but nothing that would necessarily bring us back again. With so many restaurants in the area, it's hard to compete. read more

Food taste delicious and always freshly made. highly recommend Beef Chow FunChicken Fried Rice

Very good Hainan chicken rice. There is no price on the menu.Their drink price has gone up significantly. So be sure to find out how much things cost first if you are price Sensitive. A simple drink js 6.5 plus tax and tip. read more

Food is always fresh and flavorful. Recipes are authentic. Garlic chicken is a garlic lover's paradise. Owners are very hospitable. My family routinely visits. This is just the sort of asian restaurant Whittier/Hacienda needs! read more

Their Hainan chicken dish is so delicious! I also like to get the coconut jelly cups for a nice desert whenever im here. All of their dishes are well made and they speak English too. The wait is decent and theres quite a bit of a seating area so expect no wait! read more

The quality of the food here is superb, this HK cafe is tucked away in a semi deserted plaza beside a hair salon, the food is decently priced and is fantastically cooked, I ordered their infamous Hainan Chicken and it was gooddddd, comparably to savoy, the chicken was tender and juicy, we also ordered the pan fried seafood chow main, noodles were crispy and the ingredients are excellent quality, will definitely come back to try their other food read more

Came here a few times and the food has always been consistently good. I always get the hainan chicken + the chicken rice noodle. The chicken is always fresh, super juicy and flavorful. The ginger green onion sauce is great too and they have it in a spicy form as well. This time we also experimented with the french style filet mignon (not pictured) and was not let down. The beef was super tender with a nice crisp on the outside. It was also coated with a nice sweet glaze. Overall this is the spot to satisfy your hainan chicken cravings! Would definitely try their other dishes next time too. read more

Get the Hainan Chicken Rice. It's the juiciest chicken I've ever had and the sauces it came with were amazing. The barley lime water is also very refreshing, not too sweet. 5/5 read more

I must say it was rather disappointing the last time I went. This was the best Hainon chicken in East San Gabriel Valley area bar none but now the chicken has seen it's hay days and tasted dry and rough. The same friendly staff is still there, I wonder what has changed. Anyways, it has been removed from my regular rotation now. read more

Slow but friendly service, simple yet delightful chicken and rice, drab yet clean decor, and a price point that's hard to beat (around 7 or 8 bucks) make Cocoin Kitchen my new go-to post-workout lunch spot when in the area! I don't know much about Hainan Chicken, but damn, it sure is tasty! The rice and sauces it comes with ("red" & "green", per our waitress) are excellent as well. I'll definitely be back, but will struggle to venture on to other plates when I'm confident that I've already found my favorite! Note that the salt & pepper chicken wings are very much a worthy accompaniment, if your appetite permits. Cocoin Kitchen is closed on Tuesdays, but open until 9pm every other day. Bonus: AMEX accepted! read more

The sign in the window says they are open until 3:00pm but when I got there at 2:25pm they had already closed the kitchen. Yelp and their website have differing hours.....not sure what happened but it was very disappointing. read more

Cocoin Kitchen - Hours of operation....maybe? - Chinese Near Me - Hacienda Heights, California

good food, large plates, lots of flavor. showing up just before 1pm on a saturday it was nice and empty. by the time we were done eating. it was a full house. so definitely a hot spot. the reason for my 3 rating is because i got two of the seven plates slightly cold and one of those was veggie spring rolls that was still frozen in the middle that kind of took away my appetite. however the rest of the food was great. mongolian beef, spare rib sweet n sour hong kong style, beef chow fun, sweet buns, steamed rice, and the chicken was all good. i would come back again. i did find it funny that everyone else was served with chopsticks but i get that people like to assume who is western vs not, and who may be able to use chopsticks or not. ‍ read more

Came here for dinner with some friends - food was definitely average. Cheap but average. Two ordered the Hainan Chicken Rice, which was tasty but didn't come with much chicken ($7.50). I ordered the Chicken w/ Chinese Broccoli. I expected Chinese Broccoli with this dish, but instead, it came with regular broccoli! My Chinese friend said the Chinese lettering indicated it was regular broccoli, so their English translation is incorrect on their menu. They should really fix that bc I would not have ordered it had I known. The fourth dish was fish in black bean sauce. Both the chicken and fish dishes were not small, though both did not come with a lot of meat. The fish dish tasted good but the sauce was a bit watery. Dinner was $7.95 each and came with a sweet and sour soup. Food took a while to come out, too. There was only one girl working who did not seem to speak English, but she was very nice and even brought out separate bills for all of us. Milk tea was pretty good - I got mine without boba so it was under $2. read more

Wow! Every dish was delicious and it had the quality that you can truly taste. Maybe I'm delusional because I was starving after finishing a moderately difficult hike, but the overall Yelp rating for Cocoin Kitchen is not a lie. The French filet mignon was tender and full of flavor. The Ong Choy was crispy and fresh (available only seasonally). And the beef chow fun tasted clean and light on the oil. On top of that, the service was good and the food came out pretty quickly (within 10 minutes from ordering). Cantonese food is tough to find where the quality stands out above the rest. I think I may have found the answer here in Cocoin Kitchen. read more

This place is super close to my house, and they make really good food. I am so additive to eat their vegetable dishes especially the mixed vegs (way better than Yunnan Garden's mixed vegs although I love Yunnan garden also). Their French style filet mignon is also good. The only complaint is the wait can be pretty long for pickups, so make sure go a little bit later than the expected time. Besides that, I can't complain! read more
