“Great Chinese food! Right at Laguna Beach, and the prices are pretty good! The food was flavourful and pretty authentic. I recommend going for lunch because the lunch deals are great, although the portion size is smaller if you get lunch deals. There was only one server and the service was a little bit slow, but it’s a really great location, and the outdoor seating is amazing.“

“Nice visit here, this was my first trip and was happy with the experience. The meal was pretty tasty, the presentation was dreadful but I was happy with how it tasted. The service was fantastic, the receipt says Edward was the person I dealt with and he was super friendly and helpful. UPDATE: I returned to this location and ordered the firecracker crispy shrimp with brown fries rice and wow this was a great dish. Again, Edward was super helpful and gave great service! I will say however the restaurant smelled a bit off today. (I’ve been in a lot of commercial kitchens and I know this smell well.)“

“A traditional Americanized Chinese restaurant located in Laguna Beach, established in 1984, it has been a local favorite for years. The lunch menu is affordable around $15 per dish which includes fried rice, fried wonton, and fried chicken wing as sides. I ordered the house special beef and it was tender, sweet and tangy. The service was pretty good. We came with a big group of ~15 people on Saturday and they sat us down in the side room so we can have our own space.“

“When I signed up for P.F. Chang’s Rewards they sent a coupon to redeem a FREE dessert! I never tried P.F. Chang’s before so this was a great way for me to discover a new taste!

The Red Velvet Cupcake comes with a candy-sweet drizzle to pour on top, but it was a bit sweet combined with the dessert. By itself though, it’s good.

As far as the cupcake itself, it was really tasty! I enjoyed this treat with my dinner and I’m glad I tried it.

I would give their Red Velvet Cupcake a 5/5. ✨“

“Lots of reviews mention Panda Express as comparison.
I see why, as it’s very close to Panda, but with much more generous serving sizes.
The shop certainly doesn’t have the ambiance of Panda nor the number of item selections.
But my Orange Chicken was tasty, noodles very good, fried rice was OK, spring roll yeh. For $9, it’s a bargain.
Recommended.“

“I've only tried a couple of dishes, but they were really good. There aren't many Asian restaurants in south OC with flavor like they have here. I got the pork soup dumplings and chicken fried noodles. The flavor on the soup dumplings was really good. The noodles were really good also. You could definitely taste the garlic and the hot wok flavor.

The restaurant itself is decorated nicely, it looks very modern. The staff were all friendly also. It's cool to be able to see into the kitchen. I look forward to coming back and trying some more of their dishes.“

“Thai Dara 2 is great! I went in today to order takeout for our medical office staff. I noticed a mistake when I picked up my food (likely poor communication on my part), and they fixed it very quickly and kindly. Above 5 stars on service! The food is fresh and delicious. The lunch specials are priced very well and are big portions. There are options for everyone's dietary restrictions, too, which is so great to find.

The interior of the restaurant is cozy and would be a great place for an intimate lunch or dinner.

I'm writing this as I gobble down my delicious pad Thai with shrimp, and I'm also very impressed at how well the food was packaged, it's still piping hot.“

“We have been dining at New Mandarin Garden for the last twenty years through the two changes of ownership. It is on our rotation for meals.

We felt that a couple of our favorite dishes were not as good under the recent new ownership. However, we dined there last week and the food was great and better than ever!! Their portions were very generous also.

Our favorite dishes to order are:
-Pan fried dumplings
-Honey Walnut Shrimp
-Cilantro Chicken
-House Special Chicken
-Moo Goo Gai Pan (Chicken with mushrooms)
-Beef and Broccoli
-Sizzling beef
-Moo Shu Pork
-String beans with meat sauce

I recently visited China Bros and had an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors and generous portions.

The service was top-notch—Victoria, one of the staff members, was incredibly attentive, friendly, and professional. She made sure everything was perfect and added a personal touch to our dining experience.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is warm and inviting, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with friends or family. I highly recommend China Bros for anyone looking for great Chinese cuisine and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great panda express store, I've been to other locations and have gotten mediocre after rush food where the quality is just not there. This panda express is always bringing out new fresh entrees. It seems like they are constantly making sure quality is up to better than you come to expect! I'd rather go to this location than any other panda express within a 10 mile vicinity because of how good it is!“
