Top Chinese Restaurant in Montclair
Mr. You Chinese Food
9589 Central Ave, Montclair, CA 91763, United States
A Chinese restaurant in Montclair. They serve a variety of Chinese food including but not limited to Chow Mein, Fried Rice, Orange Chicken, Sweet & Sour Chicken, Jalapeno Chicken, BBQ Chicken, Mushroom Chicken, Green Beans Chicken Breast, Beef Teriyaki, Shrimp Curry and so on. We came to this place on Sunday, July, 30, 2023 for the takeout dinner. This is a small Chinese restaurant with limited indoor and outdoor seating capacity. The ambiance of this place was casual. Moreover, the tables were not clean enough (we found scraps of food on the tables). We ordered Combo B (two items with Chow Mein/Fried Rice). The food was fresh and delicious. The portions they gave us were mountainous (in fact, the food quantity is their key feature). And the prices were insanely low considering the quantity of food. Their overall service was satisfactory. If you’re a fan of fat and juicy Chow Mein, then this place is highly recommended for you.

The food at this location was a little above your average Panda Express, although the turnover was a little low. The service was very friendly and the ambience from what I could tell since I did not eat there looked great and everything was clean, neat and organized. I wish that small entries were a little not so small, if that makes sense. I asked for three chili sauce sachets and three soy sauces.Oh well mistakes happen, they forgot the soy sauce, but thats okay cause they at least they didnt forget to put a fortune cookie in there! and the attendant was super cool. They deserve five stars and I highly recommend this location, especially if you stop by between 11:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. or between 6:00 and 7:30 p.m. Cheers!

The good: Each meal is freshly made. Disliked:1) It took forever.2. The chicken fried rice tasted more Indian than Chinese.3. Kung Pau Chicken was nothing like any I have ever had anywhere.I admit that perhaps most Chinese food has been Americanized... but that is what I have grew to enjoy.The place was busy... so apparently many love it.Bottom line:My wife and I offered some to our adult son. No one wanted it.We Sadly, ended up throwing midst down the disposal... including even the rice.Sorry to give such a bad review.

Excellent Chinese food. So many times the food is okay in a Chinese restaurant. This restaurant takes it up a few notches. We had the mixed fried rice, pepper and salt pork chops, beef with broccoli, and Kung pao chicken. Because my friend is recuperating from chemo, we kept the spice to zero. I like it hot, but the flavors were so good and the food was cooked to perfection -- I didnt miss the heat at all! Gonna go visit my friends soon just to go again!
Panda Express
5060 N Montclair Plaza Ln, Montclair, CA 91763, United States
It is a typical Panda Express establishment! This one is located inside the Montclair Place mall. It is located in the food court of the mall. The meals, that I would order, were quite delicious. Just like in any Panda Express establishment. Nevertheless, this establishment had the most foot traffic in the food court. However, it was moving quite fast. Therefore, if anyone enjoys Chinese food, and shop in Montclair. I would definitely recommend a visit to this restaurant. The meals were delicious, and they were not on the expensive side. Of course, currently the place is closed, due to the pandemic. Nevertheless, after the State is open, and I am in the area, I might try some Chinese food again from Panda Express.
Tasty Goody Express

I ordered food last minute last night since most Chinese and Taiwanese restaurants close to us are closed on Tuesdays so I decided to try this place based on the good reviews here. I dont understand why people rate this place high, the food is too sweet! Everything tasted like dessert! The meat tasted weird, cheap, u fresh, and low quality. I immediately spit the chicken out. I ordered 5 items, all belong to trash.

Recently converted to this restaurant from a previous Chinese restaurant. Dumplings were great but noodle type selection was limited. Chinese food offerings were good and tasted good. Not a 5 rating yet but good enough too come back again.
Paradise Buffet
9059 Central Ave, Montclair, CA 91763, United States
I eat here WAY too much....and drive from Walnut/West Covina area to do so. Almost everything they have is good to great with a reasonable price tag, so its no surprise that its almost always busy.If youre new to the area its a full buffet with a full Mongolian BBQ in the middle. I say full buffet cause its not just Asian food but has cheese enchiladas, meatloaf, etc. What gets me back is the Mongolian BBQ, the ribs on weeknights and prime rib on the weekends. They offer various additional seafood options at dinner as well but thats not my thing. I think most Mongolian BBQs are similar but Ive got two tricks to make my dish stand out. For one, I go to the salad bar and add jalapeños, and since most of the watery sauce burns off when cooking, I go and get some of the ponzu sauce for the potstickers and put that on AFTER. That makes this Mongolian BBQ a notch above the rest. I cant remember if I reviewed Paradise Buffet before but my biggest pet peve is that they slide the dishes around on the big fry wheel (whatever the heck its called) and your stuff is cooked right where someone elses was. I hate curry, and if someone put curry in theres before you thatll ruin my dinner. I REALLY wish they kept everyones food in their own spot when cooking like Fire and Ice does down in Anaheim. I was gonna give this review 5 stars, but now that I think about it Im gonna knock it down one for that.They recently changed their weekday pork ribs from an American style sauce to a more Asian style sweet and sour which Im really liking a lot. Its a unique sauce thats way better than sweet and sour ribs youd get at a Chinese restaurant. And usually their ribs are thick and meaty, although my last trip they let me down on the quality a bit. Id say half to 3/4 of the time they get really good ribs that have almost an inch thick amount of meat per rib. Even if the amount of meat is sub par on occasion I never feel like Im losing out.I like their Chinese chicken and Greek salads too. Im happy they have blue cheese dressing for a mixed green salad but it needs to be thicker and with more chunks, or I wish they had separate blue cheese crumbles like at Golden Corral.They also have a really big dessert island. The cinnamon rolls are pretty good when theyre fresh. Some old dude complained once about the soft serve ice cream machine but I like it. I like soft serve thats more icy than creamy if that makes any sense, he was probably the other way around. They also have hand scooped ice-cream so you cant go wrong.All in all this place is great. If youre new to the area I would say its a must see. If they addressed the things I mentioned above and/or added some spicy tuna or crunchy rolls I probably wouldnt eat anywhere else!P. S. A shout out to Veronica, shes a total sweetheart who will chat and offer to grab you dessert and such. Most servers there are pleasant if quiet. She stands out and you better tip her if you get her.
