We were looking for a good Chinese sit down place and came across this mom and pop shop. They are very friendly food is great and comes out in a timely manner! We are so happy to find a good place! We don’t know what to pick so we order different type of dishes to try. They have a good selection and they are open everyday except for Tuesday! I highly recommend this place!

Celebrating my husbands Birthday. On our way home from the casino, he said he wanted Chinese food. Googled a few spots and decided to try this place. It did not disappoint. As always we like to try different dishes. We ordered 3 different entrees. Portions were huge. We ordered 2 more entrees to take home to the kids. Needless to say we have leftovers for about 2-3 more days. Will definitely be back

Always come back for more. Food comes quickly and has always been hot. Who wants food on a cold plate that cools your meal before you can finish it? Nice serving size, very tasty. Take out is ready quickly too!

The food is good. We ordered to go. The host was really helpful with ordering food due being our first time at the place. This isn’t on the menu but the garlic green beans are good.

Have been twice, Both times ordering the same dishes. Orange chicken / with fried rice & curry chicken. You get a generous amount. Food is very good. Fried rice I'd give a 4 rating though.

This was my first time dining at Legends 8 China Restaurant in Calimesa CA. There was many choices to chose from we tried 4 different Lunch Specials, I had my favorite Sweet & Sour Pork, we also ordered Teriyaki Chicken, Mongolian Beef, and Vegetable Delight. Everything tasted so delicious! Staff were kind and friendly and the prices very reasonable. Want good Chinese food? give Legends 8 China Restaurant in Calimesa a try.

I went back when they opened at 11 am , they gave us old inedible food that they reheated. Been here a few times and the quality is spot on . Will not be back, cook must of been lazy when they want and forget people pay good money for food to be made fresh . Orange chicken was tough! Egg foo young was burnt, and a massive concealed lump of gravy and pork . When we ordered they told us it will be 10 minutes until we get our food . Or did they mean it will take them 10 minutes to reheat in microwave. Absolutely disgusting food yesterday.
