We got the garlic chx fried rice, beef with Chinese broccoli, and the egg drop soup. Broccoli smelled rotten so we skipped that (DoorDash gave us refund) ate other things and still got food poisoning. I won’t be going back here and I don’t recommend it either. If it was just one dish then maybe I try again but everything?!?
I feel stupid for not checking their food inspection history, (I’m Asian but Chinese restaurants don’t have the best rep) they have never achieved an A, which really isn’t hard (I have 10 years restaurant/hospitality experience). Their last inspection was graded C and had 16 violations. Albeit no rat droppings or cockroaches, but enough to make someone sick.
Be forewarned!!!!

Great authentic Chinese food. Also has good lunch special prices. The place is not up to date on the looks but service is good.

Decided to try some take out here and weren't disappointed. Got won ton noodles and beef chow fun and both were really good and reasonably priced. Service as efficient. Hole in the wall feel inside but we'll definitely do take out again here.

Food is bland. Small portions. Worst is the service. Waiter hardly came to help us. We paid and left a tip on the table and the waiter stopped us on the way out, accusing us of failing to leave a tip. Very rude. I was very upset I already left a tip. Why should I add more tip for bad service?

made myself a deal: if this place didn’t charge me for extra rice, I’d give it 5 stars—here we are!
My fiancé and I have been coming for a month and already visited 4–5 times. It’s quickly become our go-to spot thanks to consistently well-made food and fast, friendly service. There’s sometimes a slight language barrier since it’s authentic Chinese, but simple phrases or pointing work fine.
The 32oz Hong Kong-style lemon tea is a must—only $2.50 with unlimited refills, and they even let you take it to go. The menu is extensive, the portions are fair, and they don’t nickel-and-dime you, which is rare these days.
The only downside was a 30-minute wait for takeout once, but the Mapo Tofu was so good it made up for it. Restrooms are a bit rough, but that just adds to the authentic vibe.
Great food, great value, and a new favorite spot for us!

Food was average, and the restaurant wasn’t very clean 🧹. But at just $11 per dish 💸, it’s very affordable—great for a quick, budget-friendly meal.
Just a heads-up: this isn’t authentic Hong Kong-style Cantonese food, but more like northeastern Chinese-style cooking 🥢. For example, the tomato and egg dish 🍅🥚 was a simple northern-style version—mostly scrambled eggs with just a couple of tomato pieces (can see photo). The beef with scallions and onions 🥩🧅 had a slightly sour flavor, which might not be for everyone.
That said, the staff were quite friendly and helpful 🤝, and the food wasn’t bad—it just didn’t match my personal taste.

It's a typical Hong Kong style cafe. Good price and good food.
One of my go to restaurants. Food is always consistent and good.

The price is awesome. Each dish can be low as $6. We had Brunch combo for $10.99. It’s not a 5 star dish, but the price, it certainly exceeds its value.
The location is close to Main Street and Garfield Ave where it is the center of Alhambra area.
This restaurant provides both authentic Chinese local food or typical American dish. U won’t go wrong to dine in this place. Because many elder Chinese already know this place, don’t get surprised if u see many elder Chinese dine with you.

The food is good but the waiters can’t really speak English well so you need to point at what you want and make sure they really know what you’re ordering
I ordered takeout, and I thought it was good
