We lost a treasured restaurant, an amazing part of the community. The employees will be missed. The town will never heal. Chinese food as good and consistent as the food that was served here will never be found elsewhere. RIP South China Gourmet I wouldn't have made it this far in life without the food you made.

Friendly staff, been living in Whitman right down the street from this place for about 2 years now. To me, the food always seems to improve with each visit. Can't complain. Pretty good overall, haven't had a bad item yet.
