I have been enjoying lunch meals here since the mid 80’s. The food used to be excellent but since changing ownership and/or cooks, they taste different, not as good and smaller portion sizes. They offer lunch specials a couple bucks cheaper than the regular menu. Get there before 3p. I like their Kung Pao or shredded pork. The chow mein is prepared a bit skimpy. no veggies no cabbage no bean sprouts no onion. Just noodles 🙁

Best tasting Chinese food I have had in a long time. Not only the taste but the texture. The food taste as you think it should. And the texture is soft. The chicken was done perfect, which is rare after getting fried. It was tender and juicy. The sauce was on point. The spring rolls were on point too!

We’re driving down PCH and stopped by this quaint restaurant for familiar comfort food (we’re Malaysian) and it sure hit home. Tastes right if not better, portions are generous and good value for money. Had the chicken fried rice (highly recommended), sweet sour chicken (authentic taste), garlic shrimp and shrimp egg fu yong (above average). Definitely will return if coming thru again

I’ve been going to Chongs for years but that all came to an end today when I saw the size of the portions they are now serving, Their reasoning for the smaller portions and especially their attitude when i asked about it was the reason. I got my money back and said SEE YA’ ! NO MORE Chongs for me !

This place is a childhood favorite. I have been eating their shrimp fried rice and foil wrap chicken for years. Cross the street from the Monterey bus transit it is easy to find. I went on a Sunday early evening, very quiet, got my order to go no issues. Staff is nice and speak enough English to be understood

Best Chinese food I have had in ages! Everything was delicious! The lemon chicken tasted like real lemon, the miso soup was to die for, and the honey Walnut shrimp was the best I’ve ever had! Would recommend for anyone wanting high quality Chinese food!

Subpar unauthentic Chinese food. Gave them a few chances to live up to other reviews and they failed miserably.
