Here, the food is crafted to satisfy — generous in scale and thoughtful in flavor — making each bite linger just a little longer in your memory.

For locals and visitors alike, Original South China Sea stands as a dependable choice when craving honest Chinese fare in a setting that values connection as much as cuisine.

The portions were incredible the pic doesn’t do it justice. I wanted just a broth soup which wasn’t on the menu and they brought me a broth soup full of veggies I told them they need to add it to menu. Great portions, accommodating staff, great taste, at a great value. I will be back!

Truly fantastic food, portions are amazing and the food is ALWAYS fresh. We are so glad to have Original South China Sea in Lacombe, it is truly the only good option for chinese food in Lacombe. We order every month and just ordered again! Truly have never been disapointed!

Great Chinese food with MASSIVE portions for a reasonable cost. Usually do pick up, but sat down here the other day. Clean restaurant and great staff.

Friendly staff. Excellent food. Huge portions. Fair prices. Their dinner for 6 will feed 12. Always leftovers. Never disappointment.

Huge portions on the Meals for 1. Enough for two meals each. Fresh and delicious. I wouldn’t get the fried shrimp again tho, all breading and little shrimp. My husband loved the lemon chicken. Fresh out of the fryer and served with the lemon sauce on the side so it stayed crispy.
