They messed up 1 of the items when placing the order. They brought 1 dish wrong item (at least it was correct category - vege). One server that walked by just ignored our calls twice. I've never had such a bad experience for a restaurant before.

The manager is very impolite and they don't like or let people to take their to go plastic bucket. The food quality is only so so. The soup is not warm enough sometimes or even sometimes running out of soup. It is very hot in there because the air conditioning is not strong enough and the wait time is not and it takes a while for the food to come out. Parking is very limited. We have better quality restaurants in the San Gabriel Valley and even some with better price. Overall the food quality is so so and sometimes not hot enough.

We came by at 5:20pm on a Saturday for a family dinner celebration. They offer an amazing lunch special from 12-6pm with dishes ranging from $9.99 to $15.99. It's seriously such a good deal with today's inflation prices everywhere. The fact that their lunch special also lasts until 6pm pretty much allows you an early dinner for the same price. The lunch special includes soup, rice, and tea. For our table of four, we ordered the Braised String Beans ($9.99), Pork Chop with Spicy Salt ($9.99), Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Vegetables ($10.99), Beef Chow Fun ($11.99), and Crispy Pan-Fried Flounder ($11.99). The dishes came out one by one, but not too far apart. I really enjoyed all the dishes, especially for the price. My favorites were the string beans and chow fun though. If you're craving Cantonese dishes for a great value, definitely come here. You really can't beat the lunch special prices here that last for extended hours. The food is also delicious and I can imagine our family coming back here again. Plus, we ended with some taro tapioca dessert that was a sweet way to end the meal.

We've dined here twice, once for lunch and once for dinner, and both experiences exceeded our expectations. During lunchtime, we enjoyed complimentary Chinese soup , rice and a diverse selection from their lunch special menu, available from 11 am to 6 pm - a great value! At dinner, we noticed larger portions and complimentary liquid desserts, adding to the enjoyable dining experience. But rice needs to order separately, but they give huge portion of rice. Four people, we ordered three bowls of rice. The food was consistently delicious on both visits, and the service was prompt and friendly. We appreciated the complimentary Chinese tea and the extensive dinner menu options, setting this restaurant apart from others in the area. The establishment is new, with a fresh and clean atmosphere, and during Lunar New Year, they added to the ambiance with festive background music. We look forward to returning here regularly.

The lunch specials are very affordable and good portions and good quality. They do not have Lunch specials on the Chinese New Year holiday. Feng 芬 is very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the lunch here

This place is a new traditional Chinese restaurant. I'm not sure which place it took over. Located on Valley near Salju, there is a parking lot with plenty of spaces on the side. The restaurant is decorated nicely and had good spacing between tables. There is also a secluded room with seating for 15-20 for private events. Came here with my family for dinner on a Tuesday night around 5:30. Since we got there pretty early, there was no wait and we got seated very quickly. The menu looks very similar to other traditional Chinese places in the area. Service was slow for us. There was only one server going around taking orders, and it ended up taking us around 15 minutes to ever get our order put in. That being said, the food came out pretty quickly. It started with soup (included), which I thought tasted kind of weird at first, until I realized that I was a Bittermelon soup. We ordered the fried fish, seafood chow mein, tofu & veggies, and string beans. The fish was really good. Very crispy, good flavor, and nice sauce complimenting the dish. This was definitely one of my favorite dishes of the night. In second was probably the tofu dish which had nice flavors and very good consistency for the tofu. The string beans and seafood chow mein were good but not great. All in all, I think this place was slightly above average. The food tasted good and prices were decent, but nothing stood out too much for me personally. The slow service and difficulty ordering with the language barrier brings this down a notch as well. I think it's definitely worth a try. Since it's new they have opportunities to improve and I hope they do since they have the foundations for a good Chinese restaurant.

Ordered take out for Lunar New Year lunch at the office. Everybody was happy and full with the food and it was more than enough. We ordered 8 dishes for 8 people and it came with rice. All special sauces were packed separately, which is nice. Will have to go and try their dine in sometime.
Good prices free soup and rice, I like the fry whole fish ?, ?

It's one of the better Shabu places we have dine with, however, the buffet area is really messy and sauces were all over the table. It could be better monitored and maintained.

Surprisingly fried sticky rice is not sticky rice That's the normal rice as I tasted.

Thus far, I have tried the following. I like this place. The food is good, not greasy and some of the dishes are made differently than the usual way. It's nice to have a change. Beef Stew and Rice Rolls in Sizzling Pot- The beef was soft. There are some pieces that may be a little bit tough, but overall, all of the beef stew pieces were soft. The rice rolls were great. The only thing that was different was the tangy/sourness flavor. It could have been the vinegar. I didn't particular like it but after a while, I got use to it. But overall, still a great dish. Chinese Broccoli with Dried Fish & Ginger Sauce- it was good. Great texture. Salt and Pepper Shrimp- This is really good! fried sticky rice with preserved meat-They made it with peanuts! It's very different from the usual dish you find at other places, but I liked it. It was also pretty light, not as heavy and flavorful as the usual either. If you're looking for a lighter fried sticky rice dish, this is the place. Singapore Style Fried Vermicelli- I liked this one too. It had lots of shrimp inside and the noodles were great texture.

Standard SGV lunch special prices, quantity, and quality. I'd say the service is worse than most other Chinese places in the area. The soup here is towards the very good part of the spectrum. I'd possibly avoid Mondays though, the soup and sauteed items lacked flavor. I'm guessing the main chef is off on Mondays.
