Good food reasonable price. Chicken balls are tough textured. Could be smaller with less batter, maybe a tempura batter instead of dough. Lovely staff.

South China Sea is our go-to for Chinese takeout in Lacombe. The food is hot and fresh EVERY time, and we love that there is an option for delivery!

The food is great, we’ve always really enjoyed it. And the staff were friendly. Unless you are ordering out though, it’s very run down and has a poor ambience....
