I'm one of those who generally doesn't write reviews - however in this case I made an exception. I actually first wrote an email to Panda Express Company to let them know about our low food quality - but sadly no response, which fueled this review. The food we ordered online at the Manhattan Beach location was well below edible. Burned food is never okay to serve! The Panda Express meal was a complete waste of money. It was all throw away. Go anywhere else - and enjoy your meal! 😉 PM

I drove all the way here just for the Beyond Orange Chicken and I was not disappointed! It’s super yummy and tastes very similar to the original orange chicken. It was a little expensive though - $10 just for a medium a la carte entree. I really hope they expand to more locations for all of us vegetarians out there!

I’ve been coming here since 2012. I LOVE this place. It’s the kind of place that’s been frozen in time, you can tell by the signage. Not everything needs to look “contemporary.” This place is timeless guys. Def recommend the breakfast burrito, just be patient because it’s cooked fresh to order😌

The owners here are really sweet. It’s an easy place to grab donuts and lunch to go.

The food is bland. Plus I expect my chicken to be crispy. Other places fill your box up with at least some extra rice if you get combo “A”. Not to mention loading you up with the protein. Nothing bugs me more than places being stingy with their lowest cost items.

An unexpected quaint spot son sunset. Very welcoming staff an amazing location with its old booths. I liked the fried rice, but the orange chicken and broccoli beef was not it for me. Prices are really reasonable. And HUGE portions. But I won’t lie, I came for the vibe more so and it did not disappoint!

Thanks for having more than pork dumplings. I love the but i cannot eat pork. Very well made, fresh ingredients made by order. My favorite the pan fried beef dumplings I tried all dumplings and the scallions pancake, it was the best I ate on Chinese restaurant ever. Come and try. I’ll be back for trying the bowl, the Chinese burger and the crystal noodles. Great service. Thank you. I hope when I come back do not find crowded or maybe yes, and I’ll be glad to see you’re growing!

A new dumplings restaurant in Silver Lake. This place has inner Mongolian style food and it’s very different from most southern Chinese dumplings in both the wrapping and the fillings. The XLB with any fillings was really good. The beef rice was really good. The beef was so tender I felt like it was cooked for a long time. Everything I tried was very good. Totally recommend!

What wonderful people! The owner is so kind donating meals but not only do they taste delicious just like home cooked from a grandmother but the service is kind too. I will always recommend come here for Chinese food

I just wasted 45 dollars' on wonton soup , chow fun , and fried rice . No flavor it's not was it was in 2018 . Go to zian in beverly hills.

Great food, service and price. I love it here. I’ll come back for sure. Delicious food brings more people. I’m so satisfied. Thank you for your business!

Got the kung pao chicken. It had more walnuts and cashews than meat… paid 8$ for the nastiest egg rolls I’ve ever had. Overall overpriced, poor taste, no flavor, soul…. Chinese on the east coast is a lot better and very different

I came to get some Chinese food because I was craving for some chow mine and orange chicken and the food was cold and barely taste like anything only the orange chicken was pretty good , the workers were very nice though 👍🏽

Saw an ad on the street for Chili Cheese Fries and said to myself don't do this to me. But since I love Chili Cheese Fries I went to order some. It is annoying to assume everyone speaks Spanish to the point they have to ask again in English but that isn't the point. The good part is they made a fresh batch of fries but right when the worker was bringing it out to me, he takes a phone call and rather than put it on hold for a minute, had me waiting for my fresh fries that are now getting cold. I had to get up a few minutes later to retrieve them from other working who of course speaks Spanish at first to me. I guess they don't know how to prioritize with their in person customers and phone customers.

The meat selection here is pretty good. I've eaten here a handful of times already and it's always worth it. It's a good spot if you're in the area and need a quick bite. 4 stars cuz it's in front of MacArthur park lol

Really good Chinese food at a great price ($5.99/lb). Cleanliness is satisfactory. Horrendous neighborhood, and limited street parking only.

We used to come here all the time to order shrimp fried rice no peas and no carrots. They were always so sweet and the food was always good. We returned for the first time since moving out of LA several years ago and once we placed the order the lady remembered us. It was as good as I remembered and it’s a great value restaurant. Location isn’t fancy but inside the staff is great and the food is good, inexpensive and offered with a smile.

Friendly service， food is delicious, and fast service, I like getting their soup and the new orange chicken and jalapeño chicken, yummy!!!

Golden Crane Express is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality and quick service. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned—you can really tell they use quality ingredients. The Teriyaki Chicken was super flavorful—perfectly grilled with a nice char, and the sauce had just the right balance of sweet and savory. The Broccoli Beef was just as good, with tender beef and fresh, crunchy broccoli in a rich, savory sauce. The Chow Mein tied everything together—noodles were cooked just right, slightly crispy in some spots, and full of flavor from the sauce and veggies. The portions were generous, and the prices are really reasonable for the quality you get. The friendly and efficient staff ensured my order was prepared quickly without sacrificing quality. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or looking for a satisfying meal, this place delivers! I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend Golden Crane Express to anyone craving delicious Chinese food at an affordable price!

I used to come here all the time in person with my girlfriend and we loved the food and I must say this place has really gone downhill. Today my girlfriend ordered two combos and since rice noodles aren't listed as an option on uber eats she called. The lady she spoke to was very rude to her and kept cutting her off while she tried to ask for rice noodles. Uber eats drops our food off and I notice there's only one combo. We ended up calling in to see if our other combo got left behind and right away the employee I talked to blew up on me and saying I only ordered one (our app and bank says we were charged for two). I was simply just asking a question and she was not having it. After receiving a refund through uber eats we decided to share the combo and I will say everything tasted bland and not enjoyable. I'm typing this and still have a bad aftertaste in my mouth. Sadly, I will not be ordering from Golden Crane Express ever again.

Food always fresh 🤌🤌me and my friend always go and the prices are very low

I arrived around 8:20 pm. Was told it was 9.00 for one protein item with rice and noodles. And the last charged 10.00. it's this Chinese older lady from the back that came out (short hair and glasses) and took over the service of the server in front.

honestly this place has good food and every staff member amazing except for 1 lady that worked there she was extremely rude she did something that i never thought i experienced she told me i had to give up my table for someone else not even saying please she just said i had to move can you imagine talking to a customer like that no she should be imediatly fired that was not okay if she would of said please and be nicer no problem but the way she came at me was discusting im sorry to the other staff members they were amazing but they lost a customer i used to tip them because they were amazing however this is the first time i saw that lady too she needs to learn how to respect customers i will not be comming back because of her honestly i would not even give her 1 star review sorry to the other staff members there but just the way she acted that even surprised me so people if you go here they do sell good food but be careful of that lady it was very wrong what she did

The black bean noodle is legit! Huge portions, I couldn’t finish and tapped out. The potstickers were on point, right amount of crisp to chewiness ratio. Inside atmosphere is meh borderline suss but food and service is good.
