While we were visiting New Orleans, I asked our daughter and her husband to take us someplace we hadn’t been before. They suggested Little Chinatown, as the food was excellent.
They were right. The place is right off the main avenue in Kenner, easy to get to. Parking was adequate, there was plenty of seating, and friendly staff seated us, took our order and brought out our food quickly.
Appetizers we got were the pot stickers and Edamame. The deep fried pot stickers were just right. My wife may have finished off the Edamame herself; I never got one, but she said they were perfect.
I had the Sesame chicken, my wife had the General Tso Chicken. We did some sharing across plates. The sesame chicken was covered in a sweet honey sauce, liberally sprinkled with sesame. The General Tso chicken was expected to have some heat to it. Most pieces on the generous portion had only a hint, but those deeper in had some bite. Both dishes were fabulous, and we left stuffed and happy.

I have done there twice now and look forward to the next opportunity. I had the chicken and eggplant and it was delicious and more food than I could eat! I highly recommend this very affordable and friendly restaurant.

This experience was unacceptable. I ordered wontons, but they were served undercooked, and the meat inside was still raw. Unfortunately, I gave this food to my child, and only after the second bite did I realize that the meat was not cooked at all. When I informed the staff, they gave a very insincere apology, as if they just wanted to end the situation quickly. The service was careless and irresponsible, especially when it comes to food safety. I will never return to this restaurant again.

Tonight was my first time coming to this restaurant. It’s a quaint little place off of Williams boulevard. I went to several threads on Reddit and all of them highly recommended the food. I’m happy to report that they were absolutely correct. The young lady who took my order was very friendly. She said she had worked there for 4 years and made a you really good recommendations. I decided to go with the black and short rib clay pot. I was not disappointed. Large portions. Very healthy. I had enough to bring home and eat again later this weekend. Prices were incredibly reasonable for what you get. The busboy and other servers were all so very polite and helpful. They checked on me several times without being overbearing. I have a master’s degree in hospitality and tourism management. My focus was food and beverage, specifically restaurants. I can say with certainty that this place is run well. They checked all of the boxes. I will definitely be back especially to try their lunch specials. Highly recommend.
Update… came back for lunch today and absolutely did not disappoint. Delicious food for a very reasonable price. Top Notch service. Highly recommend.

Food is consistently great there. The lettuce wrap and the fried wontons were awesome. The salt and pepper pork chops are delicious. The sweet-and-sour dish is very tasty. The servers are generally great too. There are awesome lunch deals with soup and spring roll. The restaurant building is not the most attractive, but the food is delicious and that’s what is important.

We are regular customers and have always enjoyed coming here, which is why today’s experience was so disappointing.
This is open seating, so we sat ourselves and waited a few minutes for menus, which was not an issue. A server came by, took our drink order, and things initially seemed fine. However, our food order was entered incorrectly. We were understanding about the mistake, but then my wife waited an additional 20 minutes for her meal while the rest of us were already eating. When it finally arrived, it was incorrect again and clearly rushed—chewy, undercooked chicken with no sauce, and edamame that was extremely hard and inedible.
Our server never came back to check on us, so I went to politely bring the issue to the manager’s attention—not to cause a scene, but to give feedback like any customer would. Unfortunately, the interaction with the manager was the most upsetting part. She spoke in a condescending and dismissive tone, repeatedly cut me off, and would not allow me to finish explaining. She made a comment about using white meat because it’s “healthier,” which had nothing to do with the food being undercooked and felt dismissive and inappropriate.
The forced smile paired with the rude tone made the interaction uncomfortable. We simply wanted acknowledgment and professionalism, not to be spoken to disrespectfully.
We have always enjoyed this restaurant, which makes this experience even more disappointing. We hope management takes this feedback seriously. We will not be returning anytime soon.

I like to get my to-go order at the Little Chinatown in Kenner and they are one of my favorite places to order from! Even on Christmas Day- the busiest day of the year, they were still open and the two kind high school workers behind the counter were so polite and friendly when I went to get my food. I had the pleasure of speaking with a king young lady (she was tall with long dark hair) while they worked on my food, and she took great care in packing my order This is why I love this place so much- kind workers and delicious food! Take your family here for a lovely time. I really like their sesame chicken and the pork egg rolls!

There is a waitress named Ashley there. Hispanic female long brown hair. We had FIVE people eating today. Bill was over $80. But she tried to charge a separate ticket for $30. The ticket said contactless and was just an extra charge. No food on the ticket at all.. then gave a separate ticket for the actual food. When my father noticed the second ticket we asked her and she goes.. “oh I was going to tell you I charged the wrong table.” My dad said the wrong table, she said “I mean I made a mistake and charged the wrong amount” she snatched the receipt out my hand because she was mad. She consults explain anything but she “made a mistake” I used to waitress so I know what she was doing, she was trying to steal an extra $30.. if she “made a mistake” the ticket for $30 would have had food on it too. But it didn’t. So if you’re going to eat and Ashley is your waitress check your account.. seems she’s trying to get over customers. Stealing extra money from them.
