“I come here frequently and usually just grab my food to go, but this time I ate inside and I’m glad I did because I noticed so much more. The food is consistently fresh and tasty, as always. When we ordered, they asked for our name, which was a little different than usual, but Alinna behind the counter was so friendly and welcoming that it immediately felt positive.

Once we sat down, I did notice a few tables with some leftover crumbs, but by the time we started eating, Alinna was already hustling around cleaning and wiping everything down. She was really on top of it. Her coworkers were cheerful, working together smoothly, and preparing fresh food nonstop. It honestly felt like watching a well-organized team in action. Their workflow was impressive.

The manager was also visible, present, and engaged, which was great to see.

Overall, a great visit. The team was on point, the service was warm, and the food was delicious. Great job to everyone working that day!“

“Compared to a few years ago, a few of the menu classics from Kawasanja are still there!And then the surprise is that there are a lot of new dishes too!“

“I had an amazing experience at Happy Valley Village! Their iron-stew pot dishes are absolutely delicious—perfectly seasoned and served piping hot! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff was super friendly and attentive. If you're in Hacienda Heights, you have to check this place out; you won't regret it!“

“Was pretty good, lots of small bites! I’m used to more kbbq style, but the experience and the aesthetic made the dinner here really fun. You order from and iPad, and the selection options are bit overwhelming as a first timer. Got a variety of meats (beef and pork - both good) the cucumber was fresh and perfect to cut through the heaviness, and the arctic surf clams were my favorite!“

“The Hainan chicken was tender and juicy, and the skewers were wel-seasoned!
The restaurant's interior is very cozy, decorated with plants and Chinese-themed items.
Ordering is easy with the QR code on each table, which is convenient.
This spot specializes in potato noodles, skewers, and Hainan chicken.
Combo #1 comes with two bowls of rice and soup, a plate of chicken, cucumber salad, and fried peanut. The rice is very fragrant and the chicken was tasty with the sweet and spicy sauces.
The potato noodles is very tasty. I will say the best one in LA. If you want to add more protein to the soup that’s good. It is also good for the original recipe. I absolutely love the numbing, peppery flavor of Sichuan pepper in potato noodles.“

“Great selection! Very clean, tasted really good. So happy they are close by!“

“Hands down, one of the best Chinese restaurants in the SGV. My favorite dishes are the cat ear shaped noodle soup and pork meatballs, as well as the wife’s special noodles, but you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu! Highly recommend for anybody in the surrounding area to try“

“Had a great time having a late lunch here today. It was nice to not have a long wait! Didn’t know that they have an all you can eat option right now which is very reasonably priced considering how much comes with it.
We will definitely be back to this location!“

“Highly recommend the beef noodle soup! The meat was extremely tender and the broth was light and flavorful. The fried dumplings with beef and vermicelli were also equally delicious. Great that they provide complimentary egg drop soup. Excited to come back and try different dumpling flavors!“

“Super yummy… family favorite! I love the string beans and the fried hunan spicy pork! The service might vary because we are frequent customers but they are always kind and welcoming! The interior is pretty standard, didn’t really notice anything glaring the many times i’ve been here.“

“First time here. They have ramen and hotpot too and everything was really good! Servers were friendly“

“This is the best peking duck place, period !!
Every single menus are so delicious.
Came here to more than 30 times so far and never let down once.
Make sure you go party of 4 or more so you can order many different menus to enjoy.
Lastly, manager Steve has the best customer service!!“

“This is the first time I was able to try authentic northeastern Chinese breakfast in California, and it really satisfied my cravings. The food is just like it is back in China and very delicious. The menu is short and simple which is my favorite since that means they specialize in specific foods. Must try for some authentic and delicious Chinese breakfast! The staff are very friendly too.“

“The food is amazing! Such a selection of great flavors. Dim sum is on point and the Teddy bear iced coffee is a perfect finish to a great meal.“

“Braised beef noodle soup with all the veg. Normal noodles and spicy. Imma gonna order that next visit. I ordered the above except medium spice level. See below.“

“Soft opening right now.free drink and discount.“

“Awesome place , didn't expect it to be sooooo good. waiter/cashier was really cool and gave us ideas. cold apps real good tostart with“

“The chinese pop music playing in here is pretty loud. The drinks are very large in size so it's definitely worth the purchase at $5. The noodles are pretty pricey but for the flavor and noodle quality i would say it's worth it. The noodles are perfectly chewy and absorb the broth flavors well“

“Awesome, place, great food, amazing stuff. Great Prices Definitely.Will be recommending this spot over and over“

“I’ve visited this restaurant eight times in the past two months and have tried both their lunch and dinner menus. I’ve also brought friends along to sample different dishes. The food quality is consistently five-star. Most menu items require a two-day advance notice for preparation, but it’s absolutely worth it. I no longer need to travel all the way to Monterey Park for great Chinese food.

The restaurant is closed on Sundays. It’s a small, family-run establishment, so I recommend making a reservation in advance to ensure you get a table.

I attach good number of photos of the actual dishes. Very impressive in presentation and quality. Price is a bit on the high side but worth it!

清蒸盤龍鱈魚, 東坡肉, 酥炸生蠔, 金湯津菜卷, 通心菜, 荷葉飯, 拔絲地瓜, 疍白杏仁茶...“

“Employees are nice and food is decent. Huge portions and you can order a combination of white rice, fried rice, or chow mein. I personally like the mushroom chicken the most.

Don't come here right at open like I did. They only had about 1/3 of the dishes ready. I recommend coming in half an hour after opening.“

“Simple Taiwanese lunch bentos, generally $11 each (since March 2024 I believe), cash only. Check the Facebook page for the daily menu. There is one option each for chicken, pork, or fish. Additionally, I believe you can call in ahead of time to order a fried pork chop (no walk-in orders for that). Each bento comes with a small soup. Flavors are on the lighter side; if you prefer stronger flavors, you might not enjoy these bentos.“

“Best pinoy fast food. Hot Taho!“

“Good food, casual, great location and convenient.“

“I'm giving them 5 stars for the quality and taste of their signature offering --- lobster! Ours was huge and expensive, but we allowed ourselves this luxury to satisfy our craving. Definitely worth our visit after a morning spent walking around Ikea. A friend of ours told us about this place a while back but we waited a long time to try them out. It was worth it. We had the lobster prepared their house special way! It came out of the kitchen quickly, perfectly seasoned and stir-fried. We ate it with some ong choy sauteed in garlic and some rice. The lobster proved too much for 2 people, but we didn't mind taking the rest home. Next time, we will definitely try their other dishes.“

“They make authentic Guilin rice noodles here. So you order the noodles through the QR code and you can get the condiments to add to the bowl. We had the Golden Broth Beef Brisket Rice Noodles and Premium Signature Noodles. Added a fried egg and Secret Recipe Braised Tofu. Quick service and would return.“

“This place feels really warm and welcoming — you can tell the owner put a lot of heart into it. They start you off with milk tea and some small side dishes, the restaurant is very clean, and the service is super friendly. Definitely a 100/100 recommendation!“

“Best place around my family has been going there for about 20 years“

“It is a good Chinese cuisine restaurant. I have visited this restaurant, once, in the middle of 2024, after leaving my work. So, after reading good reviews, about this establishment, I thought to have my dinner. Oh boy, I was not disappointed. The meals, that I have ordered, were delicious. Furthermore, they were well made. At the same time, the waitress, who attended my table, was helpful, and attentive. I forgot to add that there was ample of space, to sit down, and enjoy a meal. Still, I cannot vouch, about the ability of free space, on Fridays, or during weekend. Nevertheless, the tables, themselves, were neat. Of course, I cannot forget to mention, the prices were not on the expensive side. So, if anyone is in City of Industry or La Puente area, I would recommend to stop by this establishment. The deliciousness of meals is worth the visit.“

“Love their tofu skin dish.
Love their noddles, so original
The crispy pork is out of this world
Unlimited source and commentary are wonderfully satisfying
Can't speak more, try it yourself. I guarantee you have never tasted crispy pork like what they have. GUARANTEE!!!!“

“I order barbecue pork fried noodles, it was so tasty, definitely I will come back .thank you for the good food and the service .“

“I ordered on grubhub to try out a new place, and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The food is fresh, tasty and they gave a very generous portion of food. I had the black pepper chicken, mushroom chicken and pineapple chicken (sat & sun only). Will definitely order again.“

“Food: 4*
Service: 5*
Ambiance: 3*

Stopped by here for dinner and we were not disappointed. All the food was fresh, tasty, and ample. We were a party of 8, so we ordered and good amount of food. Everything was great. The orange chicken was not as sweet as others and was really good.

Food break down:
The hot and sour soup was delicious, tasty and hit the spot.
The sliced fish in Szechwan sauce was fantastic. The fish was perfectly cooked and the heat was the right amount of spice and flavor.
The pork and cabbage dumplings were juicy and tender. I wished I ordered two orders of this.
The combination sautéed noodles was great as well. A good mix of pork, chicken, and seafood with a nice light sauce. Very tasty.
The pan seared green beans were delicious. Tender crisp with “the breath” of the wok which was slightly smokey. Always a favorite.
The combination fried rice was tasty and a good balance of flavors. For the rice lovers.
The braised eggplant was a surprise hit. Eggplant can be bland but this wasn’t. It had a nice blend of spice and flavor, and was a hit.
The beef with broccoli was delicious as well. Tasty and packed with tender crisp broccoli.

The service was great. The owner lady was attentive, helpful and gave good recommendations (sliced fish, hot and sour soup). The ambience was dated, but clean. No A/C made it hot while eating. All in all a great meal.“

“This place is super clean! Not that feeling of greasy oil over coating the entire restaurant. The tables were very very clean! And hand sanitizer everywhere!

We've been here many times over past two years most excellent service!

We ordered

MSG warning. I did not feel it then but about half hour after I started to get an MSG headache. I do have sensitivity—I should have asked but forgot bc many places I have eaten recently do not use.

Chef special Walnut chicken. Superb 5/5
The batter coating was light. No oily greasy feeling or oil absorbed into batter. The honey mayo dressing was also perfect light

Mongolian beef. My husband gave it 4, me 3 stars. Because it was not really Mongolian beef. The correct name would be black pepper beef. It did not taste like Mongolian beef

Kung pao chicken 3 stars was not as good. It was passable. The chicken seemed like it was lightly coated in cornstarch then fried. But it was fried a bit too long bc chi he was very dry. Also the sauce was not great. Tasted also a bit in the burnt side. I like smoky but burnt not great. See pic. I like tre chicken more lightly cooked so it’s still a bit soft and juicy. Sauce also too burnt

We had ordered sesame chicken on a bed orange slices do taste s little like orange chicken. Delicious 4.5/5 stars

Rice better this time (our 4th)“

“delicious food, great customer service, drinks are also great“

“Was hungry so went here for a quick bite. The line was ok waited about 5 minutes before I got seated. My server Joe helped me in recommending what was good to pick from the skewer bar. The beef quality was really good and the appetizers were nice too.“

“Tasty food, decent prices for portions. Definitely try a few things to see if they suit your tastes, don't just choose 1 item. Very small area for indoor seating - almost as an after thought, this is a mostly take out kinda place. We have enjoyed the Beef Pad Thai, BBQ Pork Fried Rice, and Orange Chicken, so far. It is CASH ONLY at time of review, and has been for awhile as far as I know.“

“We didn’t take any photos of our food but instead just planned to enjoy it. Everything here is fantastic. The food is so flavorful and delicious that we ended up coming two days in a row. We now have the location starred in our Google Maps. Highly recommended.“

“Friendly staff. Good food. Large portions with reasonable prices. It's my go to though out of my area. 3 item.combo.with rice/noodles $11.59 3rd item is in a separate container since main box is too full. Our family favorites are chow mein, chow fun, orange chicken, bbq pork, egg foo Yung and work wonton soup... The soup is in a larger container than usual. Various drinks and boba available. Got 3 3 items combos work wonton soup extra rice noodles and rice and a lrg coke for $56. Fed 6 people with almost half leftover. They also have a special 3 lrg items and rice,noodles egg flower or hot & sour soup and 4.soda.cans
$30.99. I recommend. They have a few tables but we always takeout.“

“Good Chinese Take Out. Huge portions. We've been eating at The Wok for many years. Make sure you're hungry before you go there. If u don't see what u want, ask and they'll usually make it for u. Cash only. No credit cards.“

“Super tasty entrees all around. The beef brisket casserole was jam packed with flavor and super tender (melted in our mouths). The shrimp patties were super juicy and the perfect appetizer. The beef tripe noodles were beefy yet light. The surprise hit was the sweet and sour fish! Crispy and sweet, it was a great entree that was recommended by our waitress. Very friendly staff. Clean establishment. They even had a menu for the Quickly next door. Although I have to recommend their iced tea. Tasted all natural and refreshing. We will be returning!!“

“My son ordered from the big menu (not lunch special) to customized the taste to be a little bland with sauces on the sides. I am recovering from illness. William helped us a lot; what best dish to order and how it's cooked! He's very attentive to our order and did really great! He's very knowledgeable and worked with the cook to give us the best meal! My son was greatly impressed with the service, he said he like to go back.“

“What an amazing dining experience! The service here was fantastic—our server was friendly, attentive, and made excellent suggestions. The food was divine, especially the dumplings, which were plump and flavorful. The Szechuan chicken had the right amount of spice without being overwhelming. The ambiance was just right—elegant yet cozy, with a mix of traditional Chinese elements and modern touches. I loved the soothing music and the soft lighting. This is definitely my go-to place for great Chinese food!“

“I genuinely want to say I like their duck because I really do. But if you plan to order takeout, I recommend getting a half duck or whole duck rather than the bento.

The first time I visited, I came with friends and we ordered a whole duck. It was excellent. That’s why I returned this time to try their bentos. I ordered a roasted duck bento and a salted duck bento. Unfortunately, both bentos were mostly filled with duck neck, and the salted duck bento even included the duck head, which was quite shocking when I first opened it. None of us eat duck head in our family, and it would’ve been nice if they at least asked, since it’s definitely not to everyone’s liking. There wasn’t much actual duck meat aside from a few pieces in the bento boxes, which was disappointing.

As I said, I really do enjoy their duck, the roasted duck was delicious. But the cuts they used for the bentos were not satisfying. I wouldn’t order the bentos again, but I would definitely come back for the whole roasted duck.“

“Permanently Closed :(

I have been coming to this restaurant and their other locations for DECADES. I remember their old location in city of industry as well as a few other locations. I visit Happy Family frequently. They know my family and I, they have great service and great food.
Today my family and I came to enjoy our favorite vegetarian Chinese food only to find out that they are permanently closed :( They closed about 3 weeks ago according to the 99 Ranch employees.
Giving Happy Family 5 stars because they will forever be in our hearts 💔“

“great taste, comfort food and great service.“

“The food was so good and the employees were so nice. I cannot stress about how much I’ve enjoyed my experience at that place. The price was very fair and they were extremely generous with their portions. The taste was very authentic, it tasted like it came from one of those five star seafood restaurants! If I can rate it higher I would rate it higher!“
