Chen Ling Palace in Riverside

One of the best chinese food pl! Hopefully I will be there perty soon!

Not the most clean place but we been coming here for as long as I can remember! 🙌🏻 I will never stop supporting these nice people🤍

Excellent! Compliments to the chef. Thank you Lois!

Tried to dine in and get a simple order of soup, not good on service . I graciously left

The fried rice is different than every other Chinese food restaurant. It keeps me coming back for more

Hands down the best chinese food around.. great service .

This restaurant is amazing my mother and I in the past have been going here for years and the food and the service is always amazing. The atmosphere is very quiet and calm and relaxing. I will continue to go here for as long as I can keep up the good work!

My family has been coming here for years for the buffet. The fried crispy shrimp is the best and the hot tea. Hope to go back soon.

one of the workers got mad at us for not asking to use the bathroom, like what? and when we walked out she yelled at us again because we didn’t say thank you. horrible service!

Ordered Peking duck, two different chowmiens, kung pao chicken and shrimp fried rice and egg rolls, I would recommend everything but the egg rolls. The service was alright, they don’t really check on you often but they were very helpful when it came to explaining the menu. Be careful with what you order though because the servings are VERY large but very good price .The place isn’t dirty but it is old, overall it is a nice authentic place for Chinese food and would recommend for families.

Our order was to go, and was partially lost after waiting 1 hour for our meal. The meal was $134.00. Very on professional. No actual person up front to seat or place an order. Had to wait ten minutes to place an order. Upon returning 1 hour later several customers were still there barely receiving their order. 1st and last time. Rating 1 to 10. I give it a 2.

They dont know how to prepare Orange chicken. They add the sauce They give you for the egg rolls. It was little pieces of something dry and RED sauce. They said that is the way we prepare it that is our recipe. The eggs Foo Yong was horrible.

FOOD IS DELICIOUS..AND REASONABLE N GOOD SERVICE 😊 TY

Old School Chinese place with best Chinese food in the city.

Very very good Chinese food prices are great very nice people

Food was very good, but the restaurant itself was quite dirty and messy. In need of a remodel.

The service was good and the food was delicious but what I liked best was the owner/waitress friendly and hurmous personality 😋

Love the food! Been coming to Chen Ling for years. Love the atmosphere. Price is descent. Lois is great.

First time trying this place, has been around a long time figured might be good. We came on 1/5/22. Came with family including my parents. Reserved a Peking duck 🦆, and tried 7 other dishes too, everything was delicious, and the service was great ! We had some yummy Mai Tais and they offered to make us some Long Island Ice Teas next time, ha! We will definitely be back. Old school place with a wide menu variety .

My first time ordering from here and rhythm was delicious.I ordered Wor Wonton Soup. DELISH. Good amount of wontons and shrimp and veggies.I also ordered Steamed dumplings. YUM YUM!Everything was So good, I went back the next day and reordered the same thing. They remembered me also.I recommend Chen Ling Palace for sure and will be going back.

Kind of slow bringing food out but other then that. Excellent food. Very cheap prices. I also would like to add that Im fat and take my food and the place I order my food from very serious. Food here was delicious. Inside is kind of set up weird but I did the white glove test and its very clean place.

Food is delicious, great prices and service. Our favorite!

So much food! 2 adults could share 1 meal. I had 3 Ingredient Taste - fresh & delicious.

The food is delicious. It takes about twenty minutes to get your main dish but they bring a bowl of crispy noodles. The family dinners are the way to go for two or more and add on extra dish.

Have been going here with the whole family for a very long time. Even when my grandparents were alive. I love their Sweet and Sour Chicken and Shirley Temple.

Lived in riverside my entire life and just ate here. Absolutely amazing. I wont be driving out to LA anymore. Everything was fresh super favored. Amazing!!!!!! Cant wait to dine in here. Why did I wait so long.

The food at this place is delicious and outstandingly fulfilling the service is also off the chain so if you go here just remember youre paying for what you get

Ive been coming to this place for over 7 years now, and what keeps me coming back is my favorite, their spicy pork chops. Dont let the name fool you. They are not spicy, nor hot, just delicious! 😋

Couldnt stop eating! The bbq pork bao is soft and warm. The honey walnut shrimp is just right. The assorted meats chow mein (house chow meinis generous with their meats! All the portions are generous too! Very very satisfied.

Good food, prices and portions. Theyre hot mustard is one of the best Ive tasted.

Friendly staff, great food. We came in late on Christmas eve and they served us a large take out order before they closed. Will go back for more!

Food was good. The restaurant was older and unorganized. Could use a nice facelift.

Lunch today at Chen Ling get the buffet its pretty good, I really like their pork chops fried crispy yet tender salted a bit well more than a little bit. Alot of veggies and three main dishes, rice fried and white rice. I dont think youll be disappointed.

chinese food and the scene at this place is excellent. This place is absolutely one of my favorites. The service was sociable and attentive. The place has a great atmosphere. Menu is like a cafe in Boston I loved.

Awesome basic home made Chinese & they got a buffet option for lunch!!! Had the Roast Duck & Chinese Broccoli!!! 🔥

Delicious food. Very attentive staff. The wonton soup was very generous with the dumplings and veggies. Beef with black mushroom was excellent!! We will be back!

A friendly and service-attentive restaurant with authetic Chinese dishes and a buffet. Although weve never tried the buffet (I think its only weekends), as we always order the flounder. Its delicious and is large enough for 2 people.

My husband had been wanting to try this place since moving back to area a few years ago, tonight we did. Its on the old side but for what I could see wasnt too dirty. The service was ok at best and the food itself was about the same. Not impressed, not likely to return.

Great food, wonderful staff, very helpful with all the questions I had about their dishes.

You know how they say dont judge a book by its cover.... well dont just this restaurant by its facade... or even its interior decor. The building itself is old and dated, and when you walk in you kind question how good the food will be based on the old decor. But... the food. Its full of flavor. The Mongolian Beef isnt spicy like one would think it to be, but with its big flavor you dont even miss the spice. The Sweet and Sour has a slightly thicker batter than I prefer, but again the bold flavor of the sauce more than makes up for the batter. Over all, we were impressed and will be sure to come back.

Maybe it was because I ordered for delivery but this was awful. The pineapple chicken was just boiled sliced chicken in canned pineapple juice with onions, and red and green peppers. The only decent food recorded thieves received was the chicken fried rice but we still had to add to it for taste

We love this place. The food is great and you cant go wrong with the buffet. It starts at 11:30. The spicy pork chops are amazing. Always friendly atmosphere.

We went there for the buffet. Upon entering, I found the place to be run down. The buffet looked like it hadnt been touched in houres, very poor selection with half the trays empty, so decided to order off the menu, but no one would come by to take our order. Needless to say we just left. In my opinion, the place needs investment.

We arrived at 11:30 looking forward to a delightful buffet based on reviews. Instead, we were greated with old, dried out noodles and rice, barely warm and mediocre food. Worst of all, I grabbed a plate that had food caked on the bottom of it and then noticed many of the plates appeared unwashed. I wish I had taken a picture :(

Came in today 2/20/18 got the buffet it was ok not much of a selection. The lo main was good so was the Mongolian beef. But the orange chicken sucked and so did the fried rice. The price was pretty good but the food wasnt. Dont think Ill be back. Also the waittres was nice and the owner as well

This place is delicious!!! Decent prices, huge portions, totally worth it!!!! Our family has been coming here for years and years and the food has always been sooo yummy! Its a must try! Wonton soup is fresh and they are always so sweet about making it without shrimp due to my allergy! If you want very good chinese food in riverside here it is!!

I come here a lot with my family and it has been one of the best Chinese food places Ive had! I enjoy every dish. The honey walnut shrimp is so good,and the staff is so sweet!

Been coming here for awhile and always had excellent service. Not too desirable on the outside, located next to a ghetto motel, building could use a fresh coat of paint and modernizing. Buffet is a little weak but the regular menu is awesome. So dont be scared and go get some real chinese food not like the fake stuff at Panda Express.

Been coming here since I was a kid and the food is till the day great. Definitely try the fried pork chops , fried squid and pan fried noodles. The lunch buffet is awesome as well! Cheap and has some of their best dishes. May be a little dated for mosts liking but order to go if thats the case.

Excellent authentic Chinese food at a good price. The wait staff is hit or miss, but you dont come to a place like this for the service. They have a full menu and a solid buffet so there are options for everyone. Bonus 80s decor inside too.
