Good food late night better to dine in than take out.

I've been going to Sam Woos for years. I usually takeout 3 meats(delicacies) on a bed of rice. It cost $7.53 I was there last night 9/2/06.
If you dine in or take out meat by weight it is a better deal. The takeout plate looks like alot of food but there are alot bones. The illusion is they will take a drumstick and cut it up then a chicken wing and cut it up and maybe a 1/4 breast and do the same.
If you eat bones your fine I don't. My experience the SamWoos in Monterey Park/Alhambra gives larger portions probably because of the fierce competition from many similar restaurants. No matter what is written of Sam Woos it will survive like a cockaroach since the base customers like the waiters there do not read or speak english anyway. For me in LA SamWoo is my choice fo BBQ chinese food. For those of you who don't know what BBQ chinese is it's the Salty chicken,Soysauce chicken,roasted duck,roasted pork,charsiu,ribs and a few others. GIVE THE BBQ STUFF A TRY YOU CAN GET THE CHOWMEIN AND FRIED RICE FROM A PANDA EXPRESS OR ANY CORNER GENERIC CHINESE PLACE. YOUR AT SAM WOO BBQ TO TRY BBQ.
Pros: open late for my rice fix
Cons: The BBQ on the bed of rice has lots of bones if you choose chicken or duck so have a dog handy
