“This is the place to go if you love hot pot. Good quality food, tasty, and flavorful broth. Good service and friendly staff.”
“Waaaaaah! Wilson was our server and he was kind, made great recommendations, and checked in throughout the meal. 5 stars for him alone. Whatever you order, you will not be disappointed. Food is high quality, flavors are just right. Highlights were the Sand Ginger Chicken and Pan Fried Vermicelli. My Chinese parents were impressed, which is truly the highest praise.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Super late to the party but finally trying Menya Hanabi!! Been huge fan of Mazesoba and have heard amazing stories about this place. It’s pretty busy on Saturday lunch time but we got the last available table! Ordering was seamless with online order via QR scan. Took awhile until it’s ready, but understandable with the high traffic.
We got the deluxe one, which was complete package with minced pork, chashu, ajitama, and poached egg. In this economy, having this huge portion at less than $20 felt like a good win; especially with it being so palatable just like how everyone has raved about it.
The namban did make awesome side, serving huge juicy boneless chicken with crispy batter and yummy creamy sauce on top.”

“We waited around 30 minutes for a table on a Sunday around 7pm. I would say overall that this food tasted very authentic and reminded me of what I had in China. However, it didn't suit my Americanized taste buds.
The pickled fish fillet dish had a strong white pepper flavor and the fish had skin on it. I prefer boneless skinless fillets, and while this fish was pretty tender, it wasn't amongst the varieties of fish fillet that I prefer. My husband really really loved the soup in this dish. I liked that you could choose two add-ons -- we got the bean curd which really absorbed the soup well, and the vermicelli noodles, which I prefer a bit thicker in this type of soup.
We also got the sizzling shrimp with vermicelli. I liked the garlic flavor and the shrimp was mostly tender. The noodles were a bit soft and oily, but otherwise this was my favorite dish.
The truffle fried rice was pretty good but oily. I liked the stir fried greens with garlic.
Overall I felt that the food was a bit heavy and the fish fillet was not quite my style. But again, it really reminded me of the food I had in China, so it seems very authentic!”

“Came here on Friday night and got the Ramos drink which is a delicious creamy apple drink with a sweet foam. Bartender was amazing and super professional. Best drink I ever tried!”

“Was in the area for an errand and randomly stopped by. I got a bean and cheese since they were on special for dirt cheap and it was so bomb. Server recommended the taquitos, green chile, and onion rings, and I can’t wait to come back and try them. Such a classic spot that does not disappoint on flavor.”
“Absolutely. That makes the review much stronger because it explains whether the $98 duck was actually worth ordering and which dishes stood out.
Came to Xibei in Arcadia with a bunch of friends on a Thursday night, and this place honestly exceeded my expectations. I made a reservation ahead of time and also reserved a whole Peking duck, which is $98.
Xibei is located right next to Haidilao Hot Pot, but once you step inside, the restaurant has a completely different feel. The interior is beautiful, modern, and upscale with a fine dining vibe. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted and shown to our table, and the service throughout the night was phenomenal. The staff were attentive, professional, and matched the higher-end atmosphere of the restaurant.
For dinner, we decided to order the $118 combo, which ended up being a great deal. It came with stir-fried broccoli, sweet and sour ribs, stir-fried peppered beef, steamed shrimp with garlic and vermicelli, and the Millet Sticky Rice dessert with floral honey syrup.
I honestly think the combo alone could easily feed 4 to 6 people, especially if you’re planning to order a few additional dishes. We definitely ordered with our eyes because on top of the combo and Peking duck, we added the dry pot cauliflower with pork, braised pork belly, eggplant with garlic sauce, and ma la chicken. Needless to say, we ended up with a lot of leftovers.
All of the dishes were exceptional, but the dry pot cauliflower with pork was one of the biggest surprises of the night. It was so flavorful that it actually made the stir-fried broccoli seem a little boring in comparison. Our least favorite dishes were probably the ma la chicken and stir-fried broccoli, but honestly, they weren’t bad at all. The other dishes were just that much better.
Of course, the main event was the whole Peking duck. The duck took a while to come out and arrived about 45 minutes after we had already started eating our first entree. By then, we had already eaten so much that we were getting full. If you’re ordering the duck, definitely pace yourself and save some room.
Once it arrived, though, it was worth the wait. I’ve had Peking duck at Ji Rong before, and I personally thought Xibei’s was better. The skin had a great crispiness, while the duck meat underneath stayed moist and wasn’t dry. I also really liked the thinner wraps because they didn’t overpower the duck and allowed you to taste more of the meat and crispy skin with each bite.
At $98 for a whole duck, it’s definitely a splurge, but it’s meant to be shared and I thought the quality delivered. If Peking duck is one of the main reasons you’re coming, I would recommend reserving one ahead of time.
The ambiance was another highlight. The high-end modern decor makes this place feel nice enough for a date night, birthday, celebration, or business dinner, while still being comfortable for a large group of friends sharing dishes family style.
Parking was also surprisingly easy for Arcadia. There’s free parking in the main lot as well as underground parking.
Overall, Xibei was a great experience from the food to the phenomenal service and beautiful ambiance. My biggest advice is don’t order with your eyes like we did! The $118 combo can easily feed 4 to 6 people, and if you’re adding the whole Peking duck, you really don’t need to go crazy ordering additional dishes.
The Peking duck alone gives me a reason to come back. Crispy skin, moist duck, thin wraps, and personally better than Ji Rong for me. Add in the excellent dishes and service, and Xibei is definitely a great addition to the Arcadia dining scene.”
“When got to drive-up the guy couldnt gueas which order was mine. i had to remind him. Fries were cold and soggy. The size of the burger was the smallest than I've ever seen before. Same was true for the fries. My first visit for a long time. Disappointing. Wayne Weaver 6262622068”
“what i like about Cabreras 1st the awesome service. 2nd the best mexican food that is made with love. and what makes so good is the great music they have it's like eating at home which makes feel like your with family. keep up the great family feeling. oh and when I asked for something that's not on the menu you make it just like eating at home..”
“A great cantonese restaurant that is family oriented and consistent. The employees there are also consistent and polite. Food is great cantonese seafood! I go here often with my family and it never lets us down.”
“Literally the warmest, kindest service I have EVER had. Unreal. And the food is soooo fresh and delicious. And we are serious food snobs, so we mean it. Come here immediately and feel the love!”

“Excellent Food! Excellent Service!!! I was having a stressful day and decided to get some delicious Pad Thai from my favorite restaurant, Srisiam Thai Kitchen. The cashier delivered the food to me while I was in my car and I was gifted eggrolls! Thank you so much for ending my stressful day on a good note! I truly appreciate your delicious food and superb customer service! Thank you so much!”
“Happened to accidentally come in during a vtuber event so the place was packed. Despite how busy it was, the maid rushed to the front door to greet us as soon as she saw us. She was very friendly and it almost felt like meeting a friend during their work shift.
We got drinks to go because of how busy it was but we will definitely come back during the week to actually try the food!”
“Uhh if you got late night munchies. Come here. This place is cheaper than fast food. The trick is avoiding delivery apps and yelp. Order directly from their website for pickup. I got enough food for 3 people for like $32. Freshly grilled skewers, noodle soup, and other sides.”
“Loved how fresh the noodle rolls were—the texture was so delicious! It’s really cool that you can pick and choose your meats and add-ons. The stir fried udon noodles with black pepper beef, chicken abalone porridge and beef stew noodle soup with tripe were all delicious! Would recommend and would go again!”
“I have been frequenting hotel Le’Meridian that has Longitude 118 bar lately. I specifically want to give a shout out to Erik who works the [early] a.m. shift at Longitude 118. He is always accommodating and VERY customer-friendly! I enjoy our conversations when I’m sitting at the bar. He always has a smile on his face and he’s very down to earth. I feel like he is a great asset to the company! There are others in separate reviews that I would name specifically as well, but in this one I want to especially highlight Erik! He truly goes above and beyond! @Longitude118 #Logitude118Ar Asia”
“All 3 totally enjoyed the meal. The menu is limited but we all throughly enjoyed each item ordered. Waitress was very helpful and informative. Noice level increased as area occupancy increased, unfortunately. Next time would choose seat further away from center or outdoors. All in all very pleased with dining experience.”
“One of the best kept secrets in the SGV. It's rare to come across such an authentic Italian restaurant nowadays. The moment you step in, it transports you back to nonna's kitchen back in Sicily. The smell of the home cooked rigatoni with the melted aged Parmesan always fills the air and slowly breaks you down as a person, as you step in with a strict diet because you're still trying to lose the 50lbs you gained during COVID. The endless soup and salad never fails to remind me how I lack discipline and self control as I finish up my 5th bowl of soup.”
“Arcadia location... we went for the Monday pizza deal, it was delicious, Marco provided great professional service, would definitely recommend!”
Takeout Restaurants
“Their Tan Tan Men Ramen are the best! I love how I have the opportunity to customize our ground meat choices (I.e. ground pork or ground chicken). Topped with nori, baby bok choy, bean sprouts, hard-boiled egg, and ground meat, the ramen have the perfect flavor. Their chicken karaage were the best too!”
“I like this place. $13.99 per pound of food. You get to choose all your toppings. I recommend going heavy on the meats and light on the carbohydrates. That’ll be the best bang for the buck. They also have frog meat if that’s your lingo. I tried their beef bone broth and I like it a lot. I’d come back again.
**UPDATE**
Just a heads up. If you can’t eat mild this place won’t be for you. They can’t alter the broth. The only option is the tomato broth which is no spicy.”
“We had a great dinner at Fujiya Ramen tonight! The food was delicious—especially the yakitori, ramen, and sake. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly.
What impressed us most was the service. There was only one server taking care of the entire dining room, but they were incredibly friendly, attentive, and efficient. Even though the restaurant was busy, we never felt neglected.
Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!”
“I just tried this place and I was amazed by the food. One of the workers who I learned was named Kevin was one of the sweetest and most sincere people I’ve ever met. I don’t think I ever had such great customer service in all my life. Thank you for the great food and hospitality and for Kevin for making it such an enjoyable experience.”
“Whenever I'm in Arcadia, BenGong is one of my go to spots. Their menu is quite extensive and drinks never disappoint.
Parking is plentiful and free which is a nice plus.
Interior is very cute, good amount of tables as I see plenty of people sit and do work on their laptops here. To the right is a wishing tree that's decorated and perfect for photos. There's also a self ordering kiosk which is great when the shop gets busy.
The menu itself is very extensive and very unique. Ranging from brown sugar specials which is one of their signatures to one of my personal favorites, the sparkling series. They also have Yakult, cheese, and fruit series to order. Staff is friendly and quick as our drinks came out withing 5 minutes.
(Ordered on this specific occasion)
-- Peach Oolong Milk Tea ($6.00) -
Very refreshing drink, peach doesn't overpower the drink as a whole and is just a perfect drink overall. Came in their deco cups which was a plus. Mixed very well with the Oolong Milk Tea, I would recommend this drink for anyone that has trouble deciding what to get. 10/10
-- Strawberry Peach Sparkling Tea ($6.25) --
I was pretty interested in the sparkling series and this one caught my eye the most. It's pretty much as expected, sparkling tea. Similar to a soda feeling, this was a solid refresher on a warm day. Although the taste kind of went away after about an hour, it was still a decent drink to try. Definitely checking the other sparkling drinks out next time I visit. 8/10
One underrated thing about this shop is their different type of cups. Ranging from the standard size cups, to their round cups and their decorated cups. Many drinks come in the smaller round cups so watch out for that if you're expecting a standard cup. Regardless, the cups are well made and super cute and sturdy.
Overall, wonderful shop with cute designs, friendly staff, and high quality drinks. You can't really go wrong with any drink here as they're all super flavorful. Highly recommend giving BenGongs a visit.”
“This is basically the only brewery left in the area. Three breweries closed within a year. MT. Lowe's has a variety of entertainment throughout the week, check their schedule. And the menu of beers change frequently. Just another note, they also serve wine, but not a large menu on that. And one more thing, different food trucks come on different days.”
“Best Fried Rice and Pad See Ew in Arcadia and surroundings. My family and I, love this place because of the great flavor, the quality, size portions and the prices. Great after a bussy day, just order in and take it home to enjoy with the family. The staff is very nice, it looks like a family own restaurant. I strongly recommend it, we need to support our local small business and this is a defenetly must try.”
“😁Since I was a little girl we have been patroning The Shrimp House when it was in El Monte and now here and the Jumbo Shrimp have always been our favorite. It was my mom's favorite food so now it is a great reminder of our wonderful family times and the food and all the sides continue to be delicious!! Thank you!”

“Delicious food, this is the best taco spot in the area by far. There’s a reason these guys’ rating is so high, the quality of their food speaks for itself. It’s one of the only places I’ll happily wait in line as long as I need to because it’s always worth it. Everything is fairly priced for the quantity and the guys who run it are friendly. Highly recommend”
“When you visiting the area stop by for amazing tacos, we had the tripa, asada, cabeza tacos, pastor quesadilla and sincronizada, everything was delicious, the staff were very friendly, they are from Oaxaca and Veracruz means the taste is real Mexican style. They are parked on the street and the park area is safe.”
“Went on a Saturday evening as part of a group of 5. There was a small line but the cashier was fast and we quickly made our way to the front to order & pay. We ordered the spicy seafood noodle soup, black bean noodles, and sweet and sour pork. We received them all within a reasonable amount of time and it was all yummy. We found seating in the food court dining area but we had to be quick to claim seating, so be prepared to possibly not find seating if your group is larger than 2 people. The seating area can also be dirty, but I wouldn't blame that on Kyodong Noodle.”
“Every bite feels like an artful blend of freshness, flavor, and precision. Good place for catching up with your favorite person�”

“Came my first time and it was nice and clean Daniel surprised me with a Ice Tall Lavender Latte and it was delicious ?Angel made my coffee ☕️ and it was perfect ?Definitely recommend this location ♥️??They have tables and chairsAnd plenty of space to work and use their Wi-Fi”
“I have been going to this restaurant since I was a little child with my grandparents. The strawberry waffle 🧇 was always my favorite. 😍 My husband and I went yesterday for breakfast and the strawberry 🍓 waffle were just as good as I remembered! A thin waffle covered in strawberries with a ring of whipped and in the center. The waffle absorbs the strawberries for a delicious taste in every bite. They still have the best strawberry waffles!!!!😍🍓🧇”
“Wow. The burrito from here is so long it can feed 2 people! I really enjoyed the burrito de asada from here. The cucumber lemonade was perfect. And the hot sauce was super tasty. I am not a big fan of the red hot sauce because many restaurants do not know how to make a good red sauce. But the red hot sauce from here was perfect. The bad part is that right now I can not eat a lot of hot sauce i just put some on my tounge and it was great. If you are a hot sauce eater. Do not be like me. I use to abuse hot sauce. I love spicy sauce so much that I could eat a glass full of it. Now i realize that there is a reason why they serve hot sauce in small portions. I think hot sauce has hurt something in my organs because the last time I was eating a lot of it I had a lot of pain. So that is why I stop eating so much of it. Now i only try to taste a small tounge full and that's it. Perfect 👌.
I appreciate the service here! Great hot sauce. I enjoyed it.”
“Ordered a vanilla caramel chunk single scoop with a cone to rest from walking around the mall. The ice cream was thick and creamy, and the flavors were great. The waffle cone was warm which was a nice surprise, and workers were friendly. This spot is a great place for a fast and tasty sweet treat!”
“Absolutely! Delicious Chicken Dinner.🥰 There sides are yummy too! My favorite sides are the Spanish Rice, Beans, Coleslaw and Corn on the Cob. I love there Red Chile! Served with Corn and Flour Tortilla. Yummy! 😋 A family owned business. Service is wonderful. They are friendly and polite.♥️”
“I ordered coffee and donuts here — and I was really impressed. The coffee was aromatic, rich, and pleasantly energizing, with that perfect balanced flavor you want to savor slowly. The donuts were fresh, soft, and airy, with just the right amount of sweetness. You can tell they’re made with care. It’s a lovely place I’d gladly return to in order to enjoy this delicious duo again.”
“Place has been good since day one. Good since the mask were a thing. Yes it has gone through several changes over the years. Food is great people are great. Don’t expect fast service when it’s busy every day. Brown sugar boba the best 10/10 fried medium spice 10/10. Best boba in California. Thank you 🙏🏼”
“Service was good portions were small Air-conditioning was not working very well and a very hot day but a decent experience overall the server was Great, I believe Karen was is her name.”

“Great restaurant, nice to be back . Love the food, the atmosphere and the staff”

“Entrance fee was like 8 dollars, not too bad but still. Their parking lot was confusing because the paint was faded and the people directing traffic to the lot weren't doing very much. Good amount of food stalls. There was some live performances but stopped around 2 hours before it closed. Overall was fun”

“This McDonald's is a really good one. Ever since Maria has been the manager here she has hired a terrific crew. Never attitudes or long faces like they don't want to work. Always a pleasant environment. If something isn't right it gets corrected. It can get busy at this location but I always wait patiently because it's worth it.”

“Stopped by on my way to work for my first visit, and I’m officially hooked! Found easy street parking right out front and ordered using the kiosk inside. It has a small interior and there were a few customers inside, however the worker was very quick with all our orders! I got a tiramisu iced latte, a matcha pastry, and a ham & cheese croissant sandwich, all three for just $8! You can’t beat that price point, especially given the quality. The coffee had a distinct tiramisu flavor, the pastry was perfectly balanced, and the sandwich was warm and crispy. Definitely going back!”
“Very friendly and quick service. I think it is the best Taiwanese restaurant in Arcadia. The flavor was very good and tasty. It was recommended to me by my Taiwanese friend. So I would recommend this restaurant for everyone. Price is excellent. You can order for takeout.”
“Owner is really nice and chill. I love her energy and warming welcome greeting. It’s self service for the proteins and veggies as well as sauce. Customers were enjoying their food and so were we. It’s my first time here since I’m not from California. I wish Massachusetts could have a place this good too. Wish I could come here more often!”
“Cleanest donut shop I've been to! Their breakfast sandwiches are good and you get the option of adding different bagel spreads and vegetables which most donut shops don't offer. Their coffee doesn't taste watered down and the donuts are fresh. You might want to call ahead for breakfast sandwiches because they get busy in the morning. They don't sell lottery tickets though. Family who owns the business are very nice and hardworking. Thank you”
“This place is a hidden gem! The food was great, and the service was excellent. I ordered the Wagyu Patty Curry Omurice, and it was packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. I went with the regular spice level for the curry, but I’ll definitely try the spicier version next time. A must-try!”
“The original location, been here for at least 10 years. Noodle shop from Shanxi. By far the best dish is the House Special Fried Noodles (with the 过油肉), so fragrant and tasty.”
