was craving wonton noodles and decided to stop by for a quick bite! growing up, this place has been an og spot for my family whenever we craved wontons and/or chow mein. we ordered the wonton noodles and soy sauce chow mein and let me tel you, what a great deal! the wontons were huge and simply delicious :) my bf is allergic to shrimp and when i asked them if they have shrimp in the wontons, they said it's generally with shrimp, but they happened to be wrapping fresh ones and offered to wrap non-shrimp one's for us, which we really appreciated! their soy sauce chow mein was simple but also very delicious. it's got that stir fry wok hei we were looking for. the portion was also a lot for just $6.50 they also only take cash so come prepared! read more

Stopped by on Sunday, 4/19/26. I believe this is my first time trying this place out - it's been such a long time since I've been inside this food court plaza (maybe in over a decade). Located inside the GW Supermarket, there are other foodie places adjacent as well and they are all extremely affordable! THIS PLACE ACCEPTS CASH ONLY. ALSO, THE BLACK MENU POSTED ON THE WALL IS OUTDATED - PLEASE REFER TO THE PAPER MENU VERSION. I ordered the following to go: - 1 seafood with chow mein (crispy noodle) = $12 (however in the paper menu it says $11.50, I believe they charged me an extra $0.50 since I opted in for the crispy noodle instead of the soft noodle) - 1 yang chow fried rice = $10 - 1 beef chow mein = $11 SUBTOTAL = $33 TAX = $3.20 OVERALL TOTAL = $36.20 The wait time took around 10 minutes. It gets really hot in the dining area so you might be a bit uncomfortable dining indoors and/or waiting for your order. THE MOST AFFORDABLE PLACE YOU CAN FIND - AUTHENTIC CHINESE FOOD. read more

Haven't been back for about 7-8 years. I remembered it tasted better, but the noodles were too soggy, and the stewed beef was tough and too salty. The shrimp wontons were still good though. The market is super run down. It still has that stinky smell, and there were homeless just sitting around. Price wise, there's many options here and may items that can be had for under $10 which is a steal now. Just bring cash or pay with Venmo here. read more

Located in a food court in a supermarket with other popular food stalls. You honestly have to try each stall but this tends to be the busiest one. Affordable Chinese food that will keep you full without making you go in debt. Recommend their wonton noodle soup and their crispy noodle with beef. It's #10 on their photo menu. read more

Harlam's Kitchen - Menu - Cantonese Near Me - Rosemead, California

I've wanted to come here for a long time, but my wife wasn't interested. Conveniently located in the GW Supermarket food hall, they specialize in Cantonese-style dishes. You won't find a better deal in the area! It's a great value. I ordered the stewed brisket wonton lo mein, as a friend, Cindy S., had it before. I should have read her review more carefully; she said it was decent, and that's exactly how I felt. The dumplings were okay, but I found a hard piece of cartilage in one, which I had to spit out. I'm glad my son wasn't eating it, as it could be a choking hazard. The egg noodles were also okay, nothing special. The best part was the brisket smothered in gravy. Overall, it was a decent dish, but I wouldn't go there for it. If I do go back, I'll try their #1 bestseller, the wonton noodle soup. read more

Located at the Food Court inside the Garvey Square Shopping Center. This little mom and pop restaurant, serving a variety of Chinese food, cook to order. You order the food at the counter. They will call your number when your order is ready. You can eat there at the food court or order to go. I ordered the Wonton Noodles Soup. The portion was pretty good for the price. It was delicious. Noodles was tasty and their Wonton is bigger than most places that serve Wonton Noodles Soup. The broth was light. They gave you the chilli oil to spice up the flavor. The ambiance is ok. Since this is in the food court area, seating can be tough to find during lunch time. Overall, the food is good. I suggest you get the food to go instead. read more

Harlam kitchen is pretty decent for what it is. Located in a food court, we decided to give it a try. The menu is pretty simple with many variations of similar dishes. In terms of the food we got these. Chinese Donut Roll with Rice Sheet - I actually enjoyed this. It's simple but good. Pretty inexpensive too. (4.5/5) Wonton and Beef Stew Noodle Soup - It's not the best noodle soup I've had but its pretty decent. Comes in plastic bowl, not sure if it was going to melt or not since the soup was piping hot. Wontons were aight and beef stew was tasty. (3.5/5) Beef with Fried Noodles - I enjoyed this. Simple but the noodles were crispy and the gravy was tasty. (4/5) Overall solid food for a pretty good price. They are cash only so if you plan to come, make sure to bring cash. read more

Harlam's Kitchen - Wonton noodle soup Beef tripe noodle soup - Cantonese Near Me - Rosemead, California

This used to be my go-to for wonton noodle soup but it is under new management as of last year and it's not the same anymore unfortunately! This spot is located inside the food court of GW Supermarket so parking can be chaotic! It has a big parking lot but it's shared with many other businesses. Service was okay, not too friendly or welcoming Menu is very extensive and has a good variety of chow mein, lo mein, rice noodles, fried rice, and wonton noodle soup. Pricing is reasonable ($10-12+). Got the wonton noodle soup ($7.75) and was very disappointed. The wontons used to be huge and stuffed with pork, big pieces of shrimp, and super delicious. Not only have the wontons shrunk in size but there is hardly any shrimp and pork inside! It also doesn't taste as delicious as it used to. It tastes dry and flavorless now unfortunately. The noodles are very hard to chew and just not the same. Won't recommend or return read more

Harlam's Kitchen - So disappointed - Cantonese Near Me - Rosemead, California

If you are looking for a cheap hole in the wall, great tasting fast Chinese food, Harlam's kitchen is one of the few old gems that has survived thru these last decades. Inside of a cafeteria area on the Square Market, Harlem is in the corner where they have one of the best wonton noodle soups! Their soup, wonton, and noodles are authentic to how my grandparents used to cook it at home and honestly, I don't get this nostalgic taste anywhere else. I also really like their pork and egg porridge and being cheap and taking a couple of minutes to get the food out to you. The ambience to dine in the cafeteria may not be your cup of tea, but it's a great experience or still good food if you take it to-go. Service is always fast and they always answer the phone. Highly recommend if you want something quick and in the area. read more

Would come here again! You can't beat the prices and trying other dishes. Definitely did some take out after to bring home for dinner!

Located in the food court of the square market shopping plaza, this is definitely a bond fide low key and underrated Cantonese hole in the wall. I've been coming here since I was a kid and the quality of the food and the taste has never changed. Known for their delicious broth and traditional Cantonese dishes, you will not be disappointed. The go to dishes are the wonton noodle soup (with varieties of different types of meat), chicken curry, rice sheet noodle with Chinese donut, and their dry beef chow mien/ chow fun. Service is speedy and efficient. Ask for their chili sauces to compliment their delicious dishes. Plenty of parking but the plaza can get busy on the weekends. Lastly, cash only. read more

It's great for what it is. It's a hole in the wall type place inside a grocery store. Cantonese owned so they got that hilarious canto charm. I asked the man at the cash register what was popular here and he took a moment then says to me " I don't know... I eat everything. That's why I'm so fat." haha They were out of the Chinese donut rice noodle roll when I got there at noon. I want to come back and try it. I got the... wonton soup (huge portion of pork and shrimp), it was hearty and the broth was seasoned nicely. Came with Chinese broccoli. Beef stew over rice was tasty and had tons of tendons which I love and also Chinese broccoli. Congee with century egg and pork was bland. Needed more flavor and more century egg. Yang Chow fried rice was fresh and tasty. Good flavor and lots of bits of meat and veggies that kept it fun to eat. read more

I haven't been to Harlam's Kitchen in many years, not since it used to have its own brick-and-mortar store. I thought Harlam's Kitchen was long gone but found out they relocated inside the GW Supermarket food court. Of course, I had to try them out again and reminisce about how good their 'jaleung' is. I ordered a Wonton Noodle Soup, Rice Noodle Rolls, Congee with Fish Fillet, and Chinese Donut with Rice Sheet Roll. My ultimate comfort food bundle! Everything tasted great, and I was surprised it all came out of that tiny food court kitchen. The only thing missing was more sauce on the rice noodle rolls, like sriracha, peanut sauce, and hoisin sauce. The food court is dingy and vacant, but don't let that fool you. The food here is solid and still retains the same recipes as years ago. I am excited to try their stir-fry dishes next time I visit again. read more

It's been so many years since I've eaten here (back when there was an arcade next door). Back in the day their soy sauce chow mein was actually good, with a lot of wok hei, and supposedly they had changed owners a while back so it's not the same anymore but let's give it a try again. Definitely lighter in flavor, not as dark, not as enough wok hei as before but there were some noodle bits that charred a little more. They give a little container of chili oil but I honestly prefer it with sriracha. It's not the same as what I remember but it's still not bad, especially for the price of $6.50. read more

Harlam's Kitchen - Soy sauce chow mein, or "fried noodles chow mein" - Cantonese Near Me - Rosemead, California

This is a good place to go for quick and cheap food. This is my go to wonton noodle soup place. Service is not the best but they are fast to get you your order. Their rice rolls are inexpensive as well and I like it for a quick snack while shopping. The food court is not as crowded as it used to be before. I don't love the ambiance there since the chairs and tables can sometimes be dirty and loud. read more

This place is comfort old skool food. Menu comprised of rice porridge/congee (aka jook). Ordered the beef stew noodle and beef stew over rice. Very tasty and legit. Service is fast and super busy. There is a constant.line and constant flow of people. It is the busiest of all the eateries in the food court (about 12-15 businesses serving food). Located in GW Supermarket food court, it is nothing fancy, not the prettiest /clean looking place i didn't plan to sit down & eat there so that was not a big deal to me. The prices are reasonable. Service isn't bad but the fact that this place is so busy, highly recommend that you know what you want otherwise you will feel rushed. I will be back to try other items on the menu. read more

I haven't been to Harlam's Kitchen for a while. They have been there for many years. I drove by to get breakfast at the GW Supermarket plaza on Garvey and San Gabriel Blvd in Rosemead. It's located inside of the food court. I checked the time on Yelp, and it says open at 10 a.m. but glad it was open when I arrived at around 9:30 a.m. The prices are very affordable from $7-$11. It's an authentic HK fast food place at the food court and most people get their wonton noodles, congee, steamed rice rolls, fried noodles, etc. I got their congee with pork & preserved egg and rice roll with fish fillet. The congee texture and flavor were good and had a lot of preserved egg and shredded pork meat inside. The steamed rice roll with fish fillet was okay, it had a lot of fish fillet in the fillings but the rice roll skins were thick though. It looked bland but tasted good with the sweet soy sauce. If you just wanna grab a cheap and authentic Cantonese-style breakfast or lunch for a to-go, this is a place for you. I would give them 3.5 stars to be fair (I round up to 4 stars). P.S. Cash only read more

Harlam's Kitchen is in the food court by GW Supermarket at the Square in Rosemead. The food court's a little runned down, but the staff here is still going strong at this little stall. They serve straightforward Cantonese dishes in to-go containers. Cash only by the way. Got the wonton and BBQ pork noodle soup. Broth was solid, flavorful for sure. The egg noodles were a bit softer than I like, probably from overcooking or noodle selection, not that usual springy bite. Wontons were a little soft too, but the filling was actually pretty good. Nice and plump with pork and shrimp, and they give you about six, which is generous. Chinese broccoli was cooked well, tender but not mushy. read more

I grew up in the SGV and I would love to come to their food court, especially when they use to have the arcade here. This place has been long standing and food good reason! Food: 5/5 We got the friend noodles with beef gravy and the shrimp dumpling noodles. The food was delicious and fresh to order. The veggies and noodles were nice and springy and the soup was aromatic and flavorful. The shrimp dumplings were delicious, juicy, and plump. Price: 5/5 The two dishes cost only $21 and were a lot of food for the price. We paid in cash, but I'm do not remember if they take card or note. Ambiance: 5/5 The food court is a bit out date, but it is definitely a unique dining experience. It truly reminded me of my childhood and coming to eat here with my parents after shopping at the attached supermarket. Service: 5/5 Order your food and find an open table in the food court. There usually is no wait and the food is made fresh to order. It makes take a little bit of time, but the food is well worth the wait. read more

I was at Harlam's Kitchen the other weekend. I noticed all of its staff... cashiers, cooks... basically everyone have been replaced by a new crew of people. I asked the lady behind the cash register if they changed new owner. She said no. I didn't want to be nosy and ask why everyone is new so I left it as that. Anyway, I'm guessing the owner wanted to make some changes after 30+ years in business. They even have a cash register now. You will get a receipt for your order LOL. It's a good thing! That day I ordered one Dumpling Egg Noodle Soup and one Chicken Chow Fun. Flavors and quality are still on point... they haven't changed which is a good thing. Anyhoo, thought I do an updated review for Harlam's Kitchen and share the latest and greatest. Happy Eating!!! read more

Harlam's Kitchen is in the food court by GW Supermarket in the Square shopping plaza in Rosemead. The court has seen better days, but the staff is still hustling in the cramped stall. They serve no fuss Cantonese fare in disposable containers. Remember to bring money because it's cash only here. Wonton and BBQ Pork with Noodles Soup: The broth is flavorful, so that's a plus. The egg noodles don't have the expected wiry firmness. The wonton wrappers are a bit on the soggy side, but the pork and shrimp filling is nice and plump. They're also pretty generous with half a dozen wontons. The Chinese broccoli stalks are tender. read more

Best place for wontons. They have chicken pork shrimp wontons, and the flavors are on point. $8.90 including tax. I am a regular here. The broth is great, flavors are great.

We have the beef chow fun and man, what happened? We haven't been back for months and noted the last two times the chow fun was super subpar. I rather spend a few extra dollars and go to Garden to pick up a decent chow fun. The fried rice was all rice. You do get a lot of carbs and I guess you get a good bang for your buck but I think I am gonna pass. read more

I'm surprised I have not reviewed this place before as it has been my weekly go to childhood place! Love the wonton noodle soup, the crispy seafood noodles, and the congee with pork and preserved egg! Prices has gone up a bit since I have been here as a kid but I think it is still quite reasonable. I did come here just 3 days ago and got a beef noodle and wonton soup along with a beef chow fun. Total came out to be $21 so seems like the average price is about $10.50 a dish now. You really cant go wrong with any of the dishes here because it would taste exactly what you expect if not better... it's pretty much Cantonese comfort food. They also have party trays if you call in and order beforehand. As a kid, my dad, sister and I would come here to eat after Saturday chinese school and then head over to the arcade called Funland right next to Harlam and then end the afternoon getting an Icee one of the corner stores. Those were the good days but now that arcade is an asian supply store. Anyway, overall, love this place! read more

Been searching for restaurants that serve good wonton noodle soup (ho kee cafe is one of my go tos) and saw this place on a few lists. We were in the area and decided to check this spot out. Unfortunately we were disappointed. This stall is located in a foodcourt in a supermarket but it was not hard to find. We ordered wonton noodle soup and abalone and fish congee. It wasn't too busy when we went but it took quite a while to get our food. The wonton noodle soup was not to my liking. The noodles were overcooked and the wontons had a weird flavor in them. The porridge was ok but not something we'd get again. Overall glad we tried this spot but we won't be back. read more

Was watching TikTok and saw their Shrimp and pork wonton soup and decided to get some tonight. And yes, I kept my expectation low, but the wonton definitely exceeded my expectations. They were nicely filled, and the soup was delicious, very comforting on a cold day. Beef chow fun was also pretty good. Would've liked a little bit more sauce with the noodles. We also got there shrimp rice noodle, and their salty fish and chicken fried rice. Both of those we would probably not order again, but would definitely be back for the wonton soup and the chow fun. You can't really beat the price of around less than 40 bucks for all four items. Make sure you bring cash because they're cash only. read more

Cheap eats! When I was given a total on my bill, I thought the cashier made a mistake, lol! Apparently according to my Yelp friends, Harlam's Kitchen are well known for Cantonese style Chinese comfort food at affordable prices! They are correct!! Best sellers are their wonton noodle soup and porridge breakfast. Yum! Am coming back for those dishes! On this visit I got beef chow fun with gravy and dry lo mein with stewed brisket and wontons. It was decent and I have had much better, but you cannot beat the price point here. Most importantly my mom and kids enjoyed the food. 3 stars for the food plus 1 star for PRICE! Cash only, cash only, cash only! Closed on Wednesday. Inside the food court of Great Wall Market. read more

We haven't been here for a while. In the past , this place was our go to for soups and noodles. When I ordered over the phone I didn't recognize the voice and as I approached Harlems kitchen I didn't see the little ladies in front . We ordered wonton soup , beef chow mein crispy noodle , yang chow fried rice and chicken porridge. Sadly , the food wasn't the same. My boys didn't enjoy it and noticed the difference. The quality of ingredients is different as well as lacking in flavor. The wonton soup was shameful , not the same taste of ingredients. The beef chow mein hardly had any beef . Really not the same anymore . Sometimes good things come to an end :( read more

Keep your expectations low, so no surprises. Nestled in the food court next to GW Supermarket, expect no glamor or sparkling clean dining hall. Rest rooms included We all come here for budget yet tasty Oriental fares. Lots of options. For me, it's their HK style noodles and congees. Been occasssionly dining here since late 2000s and have seen the cooking style's consistency. Yesterday's lunch was fried broad rice noodles with beef and pork and shrimp dumplings in soup. Man, it did not disappoint. read more

This place has been a staple in the community for many years, and I've been coming here since I was a kid. The food is always on point and never disappoints--I've tried almost every dish on the menu, and they're all consistently delicious. One pro tip: if you're craving the Chinese donut to go with your congee, make sure to come early in the day because they tend to run out! The customer service is also fantastic--friendly and attentive. This spot holds a special place in my heart, and I'll keep coming back for years to come. Highly recommend! read more

Harlam's Kitchen - Stew beef wonton thick noodles, Dont order anymore . Noodles taste bad and less beef , wontons over cooked - Cantonese Near Me - Rosemead, California

Never ending lines must mean something good is brewing behind that counter. Unfortunately the food here was plain bad. The beef stomach spleen stew was oddly slimy and the taste sort of off. Everything was sort of a blob without different textures. Soft soft and mush. The congee with 1000y/o egg was watery and very msg laden. We also tried the long Chinese doughnut wrapped in rice paper and steamed and this was soft as well (Chinese doughnut was chewy soft and not crispy and the sauce a watered down sweet soy sauce) It's sad to see that the rest of the stores struggle while this one has non stop lines when food is so extremely underwhelming. Never coming back. read more

Sorry but the new owners have destroyed this iconic place. Been coming here over 25 years. I think this is the third owners. The wonton noodles are soggy overcooked and i believe it's not fresh noodles. That's why it's so soggy. Soup is just simply home cooking style not a restaurant flavor. They are surviving because of the price. But I will not come here anymore. read more

BEWARE: Owners have changed. If you wondered you don't recognize any of the staff, it's because the restaurant has changed hands. And quality IS NOT the same. I have eaten here since I was a kid and my dad loved grabbing take out from here. Cheap and filling and delicious. Now, with half the staff, orders take 3-4 times as long, and prices have definitely increased. If that was all, I would not write a review, but the actual food doesn't taste the same and I can't overlook that. Wontons are filled with some kind of dough filler and minced meat with almost no shrimp. Ho Fun and Rice Dishes are look and taste like someone cut corners. The only thing that still tastes ok is their porridge but it also taste like they added 2-3x more MSG to help it taste better. After being a customer for over 20 years, this really makes me really sad as it's another restaurant that couldn't survive the aging and retirement of the original. Will not be making the effort to come back anymore. So sad. read more

In the Vietnamese food court adjacent to the super market. The food court is always busy - so much so that you need to eagle eye spot the next available chair and hover for a time in swoop else that chair is going to someone else - and this place consistently has the longest time. It's affordable home style food. Served mostly in to-go wear with plastic utensils, even if you dine here. I had the fish congee. The fish was small thin slices - I would have preferred larger pieces that had a better shot of not being over cooked. But this is good food at its most affordable. Not a bad way to start the day. read more
