Chin's Kitchen

Food was excellent definitely great to go in a group or for a takeout order I would highly recommend the noodle stir fry.Atmosphere is nice such a cool history and servers were quick but a bit dismissive which was off putting for a first time experience.

Very angry at my house on how come I never tried this place until recently. Truly authentic northern Chinese food in the area and this establishment has been opened for a very long time - one of the OG's. Their Chinese sauerkraut dumplings are to die for. I cannot find this anywhere else in town. Their La Pi is also very refreshing and the right amount of vinegar to start your meal - also the only place in town that has La pi.

Great Chinese food in a charming historic spot in the Hollywood district. The restaurant opened in 1949 has changed hands several times in the years since, but it still offers fabulous food at a reasonable price. We stopped in for dinner the other night and got seated immediately. The waitress was friendly and efficient and the decor is a blast. The walls are covered with both the recent and distant history of the restaurant, including their stint on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives! We got the Stir Fried Chicken and Noodles, which were amazing, the Stir-Fried Garlic Green Beans, which are an amazingly generous portion, and the Leek and Pork Dumplings, which were big without being unwieldy and tasted great. Great experience and a lot of history. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.

Have you ever been to a place that far exceeds your expectations? chin's kitchen is that place. I got some assistance when I first walked in, a client informed me to use the touch screen to log in and request a table. The place was thumping but I was seated quickly because I was alone and a 2 seat table was open. The menu is full but I cluttered, I watched huge portions on highly stacked plates come out of to the tables and everything looked great. My dish took a little time to arrive but boy was it amazing. Thick chewy delicious noodles with lots of shrimp chicken and beef. Way too much for one ! This place was a treat. If you are reading this put down your phone and run to Chins and have a wonderful dining experience.

This is my go-to spot whenever I'm craving comfort food. The chicken wings are crispy perfection--golden, juicy, and packed with flavor. Their beef noodle soup is unbeatable, with rich, savory broth and tender beef that hits the spot every time. It's the kind of meal you can't stop thinking about long after it's gone.

Good food and good service! The beef noodles were especially yummy. We had a great lunch for my son's birthday. He picked the restaurant because of its history.

Chin's Kitchen in Hollywood has been around for over 70 years. They still have their amazing old neon sign out front. They serve northeastern Chinese food, and are particularly known for their dumplings. So I'm glad they participated in the city wide promo known as dumpling week, which is when I stopped by most recently. Their interior is fairly unassuming - pleasant and clean. They were not busy when I went in at lunchtime, but it looks like they do a lot of takeout orders. Staff was spread thin but they did go out of their way to help me with a question which I really appreciate. I got dumplings and a tofu/vegetable dish. Both were just great. I would be happy to go back and get more, the flavors met my cravings.When you dine there, you'll see they are very proud to have been featured on the "From Authentic to Innovative" episode of Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. I'll need to go watch that episode - maybe they can throw a viewing party in the restaurant every so often!

On Dec. 15th, my (non-Yelper) friend posted on FB about CK: "Finally discovered my favorite Chinese food restaurant after all these years hiding in plain sight!! Portland's not so secret best kept secret!!! LOL Seriously sooooo good no wonder they were featured on Diners, Drive-ins, & and Dives! It's not every day you get to experience a business that's been serving customers for 74 years!!" Soo.... I absolutely had to try it! Unbeknownst to me, when I asked my best guy friend to go with me (he's a total foodie) he invited a bunch of our friends to come to and 8 of them were able to make it. I was completely shocked to walk in and find them all seated at a large table, hungry and excited to try it to. Between the 10 of us, we ordered a LOT of food and pretty much nothing the same, so we could share and try everyone else's. Also a LOT because the portions are very good size. You get your monies worth! I chose the General Tso's and loved every bite, that my friends didn't swipe. My BFF got the Kung Pao chicken. Also very good, but I like my food spicy-spicy, so my dish was better for me. The group ordered a few platters of dumplings. A few got noodle dishes. Needless to say, we ate like little piggy's and didn't need very many to-go boxes. Our server (a young lady working the evening of Dec 30th) was great! She got everything perfect, was friendly and let us have separate tabs. That is huge plus for us and always gets the server a better tip and the restaurant a better review. This young lady gave 5 star service!

So a ddd location. One person was working so service slow. But hey that women was nice and running non stop when i was there. Home made noodles great. But i am spoiled by rama broth so this was bland and meat was chewing and not tender. Everything else off the charts. I would come back again. Try other dishes.

I had wanted to actually have a sit down here because I am rarely over here when they are open and I have time to grab food. They are never not busy when open. I had some time before a movie over at the Hollywood Theater so a friend and I decided to grab some takeout to eat after the movie. Well, we did bring it in but decided to wait and enjoy it at my place with another movie. I am so glad since we would have been in the dark and there was already a bit of leakage though we both had packed smart and double bagged. I appreciated the nice person at the counter taking our orders also. I bring my own cup with ice to the theater since I REALLY like my drinks extra cold plus I do not enjoy drinking then from a bottle & want a straw. But he was so kind to fill me up with ice. I also appreciate that their to go containers are pretty great. Their house made noodles are some of the best I have had - eve reheated and I went for the orange chicken which was delicious and I really appreciated that they do have vegetables in it as well but the sauce is that nice dark tone without being overly sweet. I think the popular thing to order that we kept seeing one after another to a lot of the tables while we were waiting was their green beans and they looed and smelled amazing. I also definitely plan to go back for the dumplings. When I do, I will definitely make reservations. This is just such a solid Portland spot and I can see why they have maintained their great location for so long.
