The service here was awesome, we were treated like family! We dined in, which was a little unusual because I think 99% of their customers take-out, but the lady was so kind and helpful. The crispy chicken was great and we also loved the dumplings. It’s a great place if you are looking for a quick American Chinese meal. I would definitely go there again.

This is a great place to grab a tasty lunch special for under $13 including tax and a drink. I usually get the beef and broccoli w/ fried rice.

South China is a rare gem. Really. In this day and age, just over $13 all-in buys a large and tasty dinner entree and a side soup, with wantons. Especially in Del Ray, this is an extremely rare find. 100% recommend eating here for the balance of reasons of cost, quality, and friendliness of service.

First time trying South China and it won’t be the last! Hubby and I ordered delivery and it came way faster than we expected. The food was so fresh and hot. The portions are huge and prices are very reasonable! We ordered Triple Delight, Kung Pao Chicken, Crispy Beef, General Tso’s Triple Delight, and a Pu Pu Platter. Everything was delicious, looking forward to ordering again!

Food was very good. You place your order, then pay and they bring it to your table. It was 15 of us and the owner was so pleasant. Plan on returning regularly.

This place is fantastic! The food always comes out so fresh and delicious whether you dine in or take out. Not to mention, the service is very fast. This is definitely my favorite Chinese food place in the northern Virginia area.

Great service, very friendly staff. The food was excellent, juicy meats, excellent flavors. Don’t skip out on the egg rolls, they are delicious. It’s a small restaurant, we didn’t dine in but it is a good environment if you want to do so.

Sadly disappointed today. I’ve been coming here for decades, mostly because they serve really good chinese dumptings. Alot of places have switched over to frozen potstickers, exactly the same frozen potstickers you can pick up at the grocery strore. Took out 4 orders of dumplings today, and to my surprise… South China has made that switch too. Funny how no one mentions it on the menu or how it is never reflected in the cost. Let me just say it…. Frozen potstickers are disgusting! They have weird white mystery meat inside and are absolutely NOT Chinese dumplings.
