"The Chinese chicken salad and the sesame chicken are must at this fast-food Chinese spot. You basically come here for these two items, but also get the blended iced green tea to go along with your meal."

"For over 30 years, customers have been returning to this terrific West LA Asian for the best Chinese chicken salad this side of Hong Kong (with dressing that's “practically an industry unto itself”) and sesame wings that run a close second."

Gayot

"The reason people have been flocking here since 1981 is because of the Chinese chicken salad. Expect a bounteous mix of shredded chicken, romaine lettuce, sliced almonds, fried wonton strips, scallions, lettuce and a knockout sesame dressing."

Crystal Coser

"The supposed inventor of the Chinese Chicken Salad began hawking its now famous dish to Westside denizens in the early eighties. With the dressing now sold at local Costcos, it’s fair to say Feast from the East just might have a salad revolution."

Noah Galuten

"Feast from the East's entry is exactly what we've come to expect from a Chinese chicken salad. Sweet sesame dressing, crispy won ton strips, sliced almonds, crunchy lettuce and shredded chicken, joining together in a heaping pile on your plate, loading you up with fiber, protein and a nice dose of fats and sugars."

CBS Los Angeles

"Located in Westwood, the salad is cherished from far and wide across LA for its authentic taste. With shredded white meat chicken, almonds, wonton strips, and darker green lettuce, the dressing is one feature patrons rave about."

Matthew Kang

"One of the originators of the Chinese Chicken Salad in LA, the base of romaine lettuce keeps things crunchy while sliced almond, sesame seeds, shredded chicken breast, and scallions flavor everything, along with with a sesame ginger dressing."

Lindsay William-Ross

"The dressing is delightfully well-balanced, and, should you really take a liking to it, you can bring it home in a bottle. The salad is made of darker greens, thinly shredded white meat chicken, slivered almonds, and wide wonton strips that, if eaten alone, taste a wee bit like Wheat Thins crackers (but work nicely in the tossed salad)."

Jeff Miller

"Like we could get away with not including Feast from the East on this list, but it's totally deserving: the dressing is so legendary the resto bottles and sells it, the crunchies are crisp and not greasy, and, these days, it's even being delivered through UberEATS, which means you barely need to leave your couch to get one. It's like magic."

Sabrina Bell

"Consistently rated the best Chinese chicken salad in the city, Feast from the East's bowl is top-notch. Made simply with lettuce, shredded chicken, almonds, green onions, and the best wontons you'll ever taste, its hard not to fall in love it."
