The food was so delicious that I forgot to take a photo.

This could be one of the oldest restaurant in China Town LA. Many celebrities have visited this place. The food is very delicious, must try the Shrimp Slippery! It is crunchy, a bit spicy and tasty. The food size is huge, so dont over order. The staffs are responsive and polite. The place really needs improvement, but it is interesting. Overall, i will be back if i have a chance to visit LA again. Thank you!

My go-to spot when i am going to Dodger games or close by to China Town in Los Angeles.

This place has photos hanging all around the inside interior of famous celebrities that have dined here.

Great, quick service. There can be a wait sometimes when dinning in.

I've been coming here for close to 10 years. Yang Chow's never disappoints.

5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ambience neat. Friendly Service. Foods were great. Do try their homemade Chilli oil . To go foods are packed by them. That was kind. Good Mulan hot tea. Fortune cookie was one of my favorite fun.

I’ve been a loyal patron of Yang Chow Chinese Restaurant since I was a child, and this place holds a special place in my heart. It’s not just the restaurant’s reputation for hosting celebrities that keeps me coming back, but the cherished memories I have of dining here with my dad. 😊👨‍👧

This restaurant is more than just a dining spot; it’s a place where generations come together to enjoy delicious Chinese cuisine and create lasting memories. 🍽️👪

My recent visit was a delightful experience, just as it always has been. I ordered the green tea, vegetable fried rice, lo mein, veggie dumplings, and their famous orange chicken. The green tea was a perfect start, offering a refreshing touch. 🍵 The vegetable fried rice was loaded with flavor and the perfect texture. 🍚 The lo mein was an absolute delight with its savory sauce and generous portions of veggies. 🍜 The veggie dumplings were a personal favorite, perfectly steamed and bursting with flavor. 🥟 And, of course, the orange chicken, a Yang Chow classic, did not disappoint. It was crispy, tangy, and downright delicious. 🍊🍗

What I truly appreciate about Yang Chow is the consistency in both their service and food quality. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making you feel like a part of their extended family. The ambiance of Chinatown adds to the charm of this place, making every visit memorable. 🏮🏙️

But what makes Yang Chow truly exceptional is the ability to evoke those precious memories of my dad and our family gatherings. It’s a place where stories are shared, laughter is abundant, and good food is celebrated. For me, this restaurant is more than just a dining establishment; it’s a place where nostalgia, good company, and incredible Chinese food come together. 🤗❤️🍽️

I highly recommend Yang Chow Chinese Restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic Chinese dining experience with a side of cherished memories. 👍

I've been going here for over 35 years and I'll keep going. Slippery Shrimp is truly a gift to the world. Everything else is excellent as well. My go-to for old style American Chinese food.

I was in Chinatown yesterday with my wife and we decided to eat diner at this restaurant as we saw the rating was very high. There was a huge line outside and we waited for about 30-40 min before we got a table. Once we were seated we decided to order the slippy shrimp, Szechuan chicken, chicken fried rice and shrimp with cashewnut. The food was average at best. Both my wife and I agreed we had better Chines food then this place. The food was salty and very saucy. Once we got the bill the tip was already included in the bill. I do not think I will go back. Very average restaurant. Service and atmosphere were good tho, fast and cute place.

I really enjoyed this place. The food and the service were both exceptional.

I ordered the slippery shrimp because that appeared to be the most popular dish based on the reviews. Initially, I thought it was a little pricey; that is, until it came. They literally give you a pile of shrimp. It's all fresh and pretty tasty too. They give you so much, that it was actually quite difficult choking it all down without needing to get a carryout box.

Another thing that stood out was the service. They were all very friendly and accommodating.

Overall, between the food quality, the portions and the terrific service, this place is well worth the visit.
