Baked sweet potato, 椒鹽三抨Salt and Pepper chicken, tofu and calamari, special soup, 老火湯

Love man Chan cuisine. I have been eating here almost daily for the past month. They have sold the business to new owners who are contributing to the nickname of the plaza Diabetes alley. What were my favorite dishes: man Chan Hainanese chicken, French style beef with red rice, bitter melon with fish, salt and pepper chicken, tofu and calamari, beef stew with wonton and beef soup, mushroom with tofu, daily special soup, curry chicken, spicy seafood fun in hot soup, Jook with century eggs and pork, coconut desert, milk desert with ginger juice, unsweetened herbal drink, pear juice... Love their family restaurant atmosphere. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Huang for serving the San Gabriel Valley area for the past 15 years. You will be sorely missed. Looking forward to your reopening when your daughter Nam Zee opens her own smaller Man Chan.

Hainan Chicken Rice
Evan L.

The chicken was nice and juicy. Came with two different sauces -- both of which complemented the dish well. Veggies were also pickled.

Came here right after work at 5p and the place was empty. Ordered To-Go and it was a breeze. The lady spoke Cantonese and English in case you had any questions or recommendations, so it was easy to order. Service 4 stars. Food 3 stars (some dishes were better than others). Ordered: Fried Rice w/Salty Egg Yolk & Taro Olives 咸蛋黄榄菜芋头炒饭. $15.99 **** this was actually very tasty and I liked it very much as it was different, I also took this as the recommendation from the owner/lady. ** Roast Pork Belly w/Salty Fish & Eggplant in Hot Pot 烧猪腩咸鱼茄子煲 $17.99 ** - this was too salty :( I wouldn't order again Tofu w/Mushroom Wood Ear&Enokitake 冬菇云耳金针扒豆腐. $15.99 *** I think this would have been good if I'd eaten it there bc when covered up for take out the consistency of the fried tofu is lost and it isn't as yummy. *** French Style Filet Mignon - was decently tasty but seemed too little of a portion for $23.99. With my takeout the lady gave us 3 small cups of soup off the day which was very nice to have and very refreshing. The inside had a number of small tables and a larger big family table if you're dining in. I didn't see any restrooms available though. Their menus have a strong old menu scent :/

Hainan chicken rice 5/5: super juicy and tender! Love the texture of the chicken. Don't think I've had more tender chicken before. Salt and pepper chicken wings 3.5/5 : very juicy as well. But little too salty, even with rice it's kinda too salty Ground Pork with eggs 4/5: hard to describe the flavor cause it's marinated with different kinda Chinese spices. But it smells and tastes pretty nice.

Ordered the following: 2 rice plates of Hainan Style Chicken Rice- The chicken was a bit tough to chew but overall good. The rice was different from other Hainan chicken rice dishes I had before. It had little meat pieces and had ginger in it too. Bean Curd with Mix Fungus-This one is actually tofu so please don't be fooled by the English name of the dish aha. The tofu was so so soft and amazing. Wonderful dish overall. Also, they provide you with soup! It's rare to see Chinese restaurants do this anymore so this was a nice touch. I would come again to try other dishes.

French Style Filet Mignon

Man Chan Cuisine satisfies Hainan chicken cravings. They're in the same complex as Chi Cha San Chen - grab some boba after tasty lunch. There's underground parking lot if the surface spots are full. For the food: They start the meal with free soup! The hainan chicken is steamed to perfection. It's tender, juicy and the skin is glistening with sesame oil. The chicken comes with all the sauces and chicken rice. The french style filet mignon is soft and tender. A la carte will give you much more beef than the combo with red rice. These two dishes are Asian mom approved

Chicken rice bowl

People very nice. Service was quick. Parking is a nightmare. Portion is way too small. Got the Hainan chicken rice plate. Chicken was all bones & skin. Chicken & rice both were bland. The little chicken soup that comes with the plate good. Full of collagen. Spicy sauce was sweet like bottle version not good. Probably wouldn't never go back but the ladies were super sweet.

Hainan chicken with rice.
Ben C.

This long overdue five star review is for the phenomenal Hainan chicken rice at Man Chan Cuisine. Over the past five years, this has consistently been the best Hainan chicken I had in LA. The chicken is always flavorful and tender, with reasonably bone and a perfect balance of the best parts of the meat. A huge shoutout to the owner for maintaining such high quality standards for so many years. Their coconut chicken soup is another highlight, made with fresh whole coconut that you can truly taste in every sip. This restaurant deserves far more attention than it gets. A gem like this should definitely shine brighter.

What a delicious place! I have been on a hunt for amazing Hainan chicken. So my cravings for it has been crazy! I am glad I found this location. Their chicken is seasoned to perfection. I would say the rice needs a little more flavor, but it was really well cooked. The soup that it comes with.. MY GAWD it was delicious. I would go back just for the chicken and soup and be completely satisfied.. I probably need to lay off the rice anyways.. haha Can't wait to try the rest of their menu!

It's a small mom and pop shop. Food is good. I enjoyed it big time. It's better than I've imagined. I would totally come back.

A group of us came here to checkout their Hainan chicken. Turns out I've been here in the past. Before it was Dragon something and it had one of the best pan fried dumplings. Okay sorry got off track there as of now this place is known for their Hainan chicken and it didn't disappoint though I should've gotten all dark meat chicken because that's my love. All of us were happy with our meal choices even those that decided on something different. I tried the pork belly and it was something I'd order next time around. The server was nice and accommodating to our table. Parking can be difficult even though they have underground parking so I typically park on the street to avoid door dings. Come check this place out!

Hainan chicken curry
Samantha W.

Okay...yum! The eggplant dish was incredibly delicious - like REALLY good. I think it's the best eggplant dish I've ever had. The eggplant was cooked perfectly, seasoned nicely and the flavor was so so delicious. The pork belly in it was kinda meh but the eggplant was to die for. 4.5/5 Hainan chicken curry suuuper yummy. Kind of like a Japanese curry flavor. Very flavorful. 4/5 The hainan chicken I could've did without. It was pretty mediocre. As others said, it has a lot of bones and the amount of meat is pretty thin. But I didn't mind that too much it's just that it was lacking the aroma and flavor. 2/5 The "coconut cake" SO GOOD. It's basically fresh Thai young coconut that has agar agar or gelatin added to make it firmer/more jelly like. It's incredibly good. 5/5

Came to dine at green zone with the recommendation of the SGV FOOD passport while enjoying the BOGO…read moredeal using the passport so get to try 2 dishes in 1 sitting yay me The server is nice and friendly and that day they also have free tea tasting set up I picked the classic popular Hainan chicken that comes with a salad and satay beef with purple rice (add-on price for changing from white rice). The food was served super quick! Both the chicken and beef are tender and delicious. I prefer the satay chicken a little more probably cuz satay seems to make me wanna eat more rice than the Hainan chicken But overall, great food, great deal, and it's next to Sunmerry & meet fresh so perfect location for dining anytime

Came here with my partner's extended family and thankfully the 9 of us were able to get a table!…read more We ordered a few appetizers for the table and each chose our own entree. I opted for the hainan chicken as it was recommended by a few family members. The hainan chicken was definitely different than what I'm used to at Cluck2Go or other hainan chicken spots. The meat was moist and well flavored, however, I found the rice to be a bit dry for my preference. I also found the sauce selection to be ok but was missing the flavors I typically associated with Hainan chicken Service-wise I was admittedly a bit disappointed. Not sure if we just happened to come on a rough day, but staff were not the most kind. When I was packing up my leftovers, I asked for a sauce container and they gave me a very tiny container, while they gave my partner's cousin a more decently sized one. When I asked I could have a container that size, I was met with a lot more pushback than I expected for a small container. Overall, I likely won't be returning unless it's for a family outing.

The decors were cool. We signed in to the waiting list. Waited outside and before long, we were called in and got our table. The staffs were courteous and friendly. This is a Vietnamese restaurant that also serve Chinese Foods. They have two sets of menus. One for Vietnamese dishes and the other one for Chinese dishes. Both menus offer a variety of selections. They even have Set Dinner Menu that comes with pre-set items. Have to give that a try one day. We ended up ordering the Bún Bò Huế and the Vietnamese Braised Fish. The Braised Fish did not come with steam rice, so we had to order the steam rice. For the drinks, we had the Peach Oolong Iced Tea and the 3-Colored Dessert. The Bún Bò Huế was very good. The Braised Fish was a little salty but still tasted good. The Peach Oolong Iced Tea was refreshing. The 3-Colored Dessert was very yummy. I enjoyed the sweet taste of it. They gave us orange slices for dessert on the house. The orange slices were so sweet and delicious. Will be back to try their other dishes I saw on their menus.

There are very few Vietnamese restaurants that I've come across growing up in the SGV that offer…read morethe fermented fish vermicelli soup (aka bun mam) but Golden Delight does! This soup is so pungent that the only time I get to savor it is at home and the stink doesn't leave your home for a few days. So, it is to my delight that they offer it here during the weekdays. It is a nicely stacked bowl that has everything but the kitchen sink in it - roast pork belly, catfish, squid, eggplant, and stuffed jalapeno with fried fish cake. Very filling and reasonably priced! The only reason I gave this place a 4 instead of 5 rating is because you can only order certain items from the menu when they open. I wanted to get some Chinese food to-go for my husband, but was told by the server that the other items were only available beginning at 10 am, which is odd to me.

Pickup was quick and the portion size was actually pretty generous. The chicken was done really well. The steamed chicken was tender and soft, and the fried chicken was crispy and flavorful. The rice had a nice chicken flavor to it too. What really took it to the next level for me were the sauces. They paired perfectly with the chicken and made each bite better. Also want to shout out the person who helped me, she was super nice and made the experience even better. Overall it reminded me why I used to come here so often.

Parking is fairly easy as it shares a parking lot with the big plaza nearby. Immediately when I walked in I noticed that the place could use a bit of revamping, maybe some decorations. Overall, the food was enjoyable and I would be back for a quick lunch spot that serves solid chicken rice. Half fried/half grilled high on chicken rice, 8.5/10: both the grilled and fried chicken were hot and crispy. The chicken was cooked well and nicely seasoned. I thought the chicken could use a tad bit of salt though. The soup it came with was piping hot and accompanied the rice and chicken well. The rice itself could have used a bit more seasoning and chicken fat in my opinion. The sauce it came with were great especially the ginger sauce that added the fresh complexity that the dish desperately needed. Adding onto that, I think I could use some vegetables on the side. The tamarind and sweet chili sauce were great. I could also use some chilli. The perfect generous portion of food.
