“I briefly visited LA and my dad and I got dinner here. We walked from Union Station; it is a nice walk.

The restaurant has a calm, relaxing ambiance. Our server was friendly and attentive. We were given tea before our meals which was a lovely touch!

I cannot remember what my father got, but I remember what I got very well: the Salted And Pepper Japanese Tofu. And boy, was it DELICIOUS! Portions are large too, which is nice. And I kid you not, it has been months since our trip to California and I randomly start to crave this dish every once in a while. My only regret is not taking a photo of it!

I will certainly be returning for that wonderful Salted And Pepper Japanese Tofu the next time I'm in Los Angeles!“

“The best beef noodle soup take out I’ve EVER had… for as long as I can remember being in USA. It gets an A+ from me. Literally zero complaints. Good noodles, fat and tender pieces of meat, good broth and veggies. I don’t follow trends but I hope this place is poppin’ off. Dumplings are yummy too.“

“Delicious & authentic Cantonese and Vietnamese cuisine! Everything was so fresh and well prepared. Service was spectacular!“

“laura’s customer service is phenomenal she really goes above and beyond with making sure your order is correct and you have everything you need. every time i come and she’s here i know i’m going to be taken care of with out a doubt. thank you laura !“

“Food is delicious! If you like spicy can try it. If not, you can order one for non-spicy. Many different choices!“

“Authentic dumpling recipe from China. Freshly made by the owner
Great friendly service. You can buy a different flavor of ( uncook) dumplings in bags for take home parties as well. Any fan of dumplings, should try it out !

Vegetarian options: A simple* affordable spot to try authentic Chinese dumpling dishes

Kid-friendliness: Not too spicy dishes“

“This is one of my top 5 places in LA. The service is amazing, super friendly and kind. And the food, IS SO GOOD. The tea smoked duck, homemade tofu and sesame chicken are unbeatable (to name a few). Jade wok is always in our rotation, we come here at least once a month.“

“I love Pine & Crane! Seriously amazing Taiwanese food. The restaurant is stylish, modern and clean while the food is very authentic and completely delicious. My kids were surprised at how tasty everything was. Healthy too! We will def be back often!!!! If they have it, the lotus root salad is a must! 3 cup chicken is amazing, wontons, etc… I want to try the wood ear mushrooms next!!!“

“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.“

“Stopped by for lunch by myself and had an amazing experience! My server Megan was so sweet and attentive and the manager Cesilia was fantastic! Seeing a manager seating guests, taking orders, being present and making sure her team was doing their best is what made my experience and the experience of those around me flow smoothly. I can't recommend this location and restaurant enough!“

“The best taste ever. Real Koreans, go here.
It's so, so, so delicious, and I haven't been able to get my mouth full since I ate this place from Korea. I'm sure there's no such delicious malatang anywhere in the world, not even in mainland China. It's so delicious that I wonder if something was really done to the soup, and it's so addictive that I'll be eating it for a week. I think about it three times. Please, please drink it. Please.“

“Interior very cute, prices reasonable. I love the food options. They have something for everyone. My favorite was the intestines and beef belly. Everything was flavorful and there was a cup of chili flakes if you want more spice. I would go again. There are several check in offers as well.“

“Love their food! Will be back!“

“This meal was the highlight of our LA trip! I don’t know what kind of sorcery is afoot here but this little spot manages to be so much more than the sum of its parts. I felt so welcomed from the moment I stepped through the door and I liked that they have you order and pay before sitting down, it makes the dining experience more relaxing and low key. Loved how short and sweet the menu was, the chef has incredible restraint and a crystal clear vision. Every single thing we had was incredible, the best hk french toast and bolo bao I have ever had, and omg the scallion roll and dumplings. I don’t know what it is about this place but I’m still thinking about that meal days later. Also, the dining room made me feel like I was in a tvb serial from the early 90s which is the highest compliment.“

“I �pick up Stix Lakewood! Always fresh, always friendly, clean and have the BEST ice tea, too!“

“The best Vietnamese Style Lobster and seafood! Always a long queue to be seated. Get here early for best parking and best seating.“

“this is a must try. it is one of my favorite places in the SGV and is easily the best sichuan restaurant i have ever been to. i strongly recommend the zajiangmian, and all of the cold dishes. the sliced pork with garlic sauce is standout. i have not tried much else from their menu yet, but i would feel confident ordering any dish. the portions are generous and the pricing is fair. if you like sichuan food, get in your car right now and get over here. it’s worth it.“

“Absolutely the best new restaurant inLos Angeles. Wonderful staff. Gorgeous facility indoors and patio. Exquisite and unique delicious food.“

“I love their Porridge with pork and century egg/duck“

“The best place in Dtla! Ask for Hiro, he was super amazing and kept our drinks full!“

“Dinner with my buddies here at this hotpot restaurant ordered non spicy soup bases as one of my buddies can not take spice. Overall, the food is ok. The soup was non bad, and the food choice was ample. Does fulfill the craving for hotpot. Since it the States so we were happy to find this.

Vegetarian options: Not the best location for this.

Parking: Right outside the shop.“

“Great food friendly staff“

“Good stuff, lots of variety. Noodles were of course good, I got the tomato and eggs soup because that what my dad always got, and the three topping noodles. No complaints. Green beans were good too. My buddy I went with used to come here a lot pre pandemic and he says it's not as good. Even so, I was happy, and want to try other dishes on the menu, so I'll be back.“

“Excellent food, and I enjoyed it a lot. After I eat, I order more food for the days I don't want to cook myself, remember they closed on Tuesday! It depends on who serves you. For an inviting feeling.
We like Eric as our server.“

“The best Chinese food I had in a long long time. We have been with six, sharing different dishes - a blast. Share the soup! Highly recommended.Thanks for reading my comment. Now, if you are curious enough about my "rating scheme", here's "the moment of truth. I am a music photographer who has traveled the world with the world's greatest musical talents (Michael Jackson, AC/DC, Rolling Stones, and Rammstein, to name a few) for almost 40 years. When being asked "Where do you live" I tended to ask "in hotels". At my peak, I "shot" 250 shows a year. Will say: been there, saw and tasted it, and a lot, as I may say, and much to the dismay of my doctor who is in my back to lose a few pounds. Quite a few, as I may add, which is why my wife and I walk ten thousand steps per day, where- and whenever we can - and explore a lot of new exciting places - places you may oversee when just driving by. While I love to share my experience with others, I am sometimes shocked at how people use their "power of the word" to down-rate amazing places because of minor incidents (in my all-time favorite​ restaurant Le Petit Four on Sunset Plaza the owner was even called a racist as he refused to toast the (free) bread in his packed restaurant - they simply do not offer toasted bread, as no French​ place does, as I may add). Or I just read "Chicken piccata so over-salted I hope the dog enjoys the leftovers tomorrow, I brought home most of the dish." Did they speak to their service? How could the restaurant learn that something was wrong when patrons even have their leftovers​ boxed to take home? As a dog owner,​ I want to take the writer and shake him or her really bad and say "You give over-salted food to your dog? Anyone with a bit of brain understands this is a horrible idea...​ I hope you agree.So If I had a say on this portal, I would offer just to see the ratings of my friends. So I would see what the ratings were by like-minded people. Sadly, I have no say. I try not to compare apples with oranges. A place like this does not correspond to "The Ritz". At first,​ I assume that a restaurant is clean, they do not greet you with a gun - and they deliver whatever they promise. I do not give stars for things that are expected. In my rating scheme, three or more stars are awarded if they actually exceed my expectations. Four, if I am sure I will come back. To achieve five stars, I must be willing to take a detour of thirty minutes or more to go again. Thank you for reading this.“

“As far as the atmosphere and decor, this place feels like it's been preserved in the nineties. I find it to be charming, but I am also not coming here for the ambience. I'm coming for the food which is delicious! The menu is a treasure trove of Cantonese-American classics. They have the best sweet and sour pork: perfectly balanced, not swinging to one or the other side of the sweet-sour spectrum. It's not overly saucy or heavy. Just great. Portions are generous so you'll have plenty of food to take home.“

“Very good food . Clean establishment. Great customer service and reasonable prices.“

“每道菜餚皆是無可挑剔的精緻和美味“

“Great Dim Sum spot for classic dim sum food and not too long on wait for a table.“

“I ordered fried beef river, shrimp dumplings, and beef tendon tripe. All levels are good. The beef river is not greasy and has the flavor of a wok, and the beef is fresh and tender. Many Yijia LA restaurants make shrimp dumplings, but this one does not. The skin is thin and the shrimp is tender. The beef tripe is steamed just right.“

“I love this restaurant so much! It’s never as full as I think it should be; maybe people are intimidated by the DIY element? (It’s a build-your-own malatang / mala dry pot kind of spot.) The flavors are authentic and spicy (but you can dial down the spice if that’s not your thing.) there’s also a cash discount if you pay with cash.

Parking: There is street parking in the neighborhood as well as a dedicated lot behind the restaurant (free).“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lee's BBQ & Boba Chinese Food. I was thoroughly impressed! The flavors are absolutely delicious, with each dish prepared perfectly. The meats are tender and flavorful, and the variety of options on the menu made it hard to choose just one. I highly recommend the chicken Chow Mein and the dumpling soup — they were simply outstanding!

It's clear that they take pride in their food and customer experience. Whether you're craving a quick bite or a satisfying meal with friends, this is a perfect place to visit.

Can't wait to return for more amazing food.“

“This restaurant is very affordable, every dish looks big and is packed with great flavors.

If you come to this place with a group, there is a mandatory tip so don't get surprised by that (it will be included in your check).

I got various items from the menu, some of the highlights were the garlic and shrimp fried rice and the Chinese sausage fried rice.

The service was great and included tea. My party kept drinking hot tea and the waitress was always on top of it and refilling it. Even when we finished our meal and we were just chatting amongst each other, the waitress still offered tea, it was a very nice gesture and made us feel welcome to stay more.

Pending on how much you eat, I recommend getting the number of plates = the number of people in your party. If you cannot finish everything, they offer boxes to take out the rest of your food. I recommend dining in, it is clean and spacious.

The only bad thing is that some members of my party went to the bathroom and it was not clean, one of them even said that it ruins part of the experience. For the owner: Please clean the restroom, it would have been a perfect experience.“

“Ordered food as they were closing they were very friendly and even helped us pick combos that would be more variety and just enough for two rather than ordering one dish a la cart . They were very very kind and the food was hot and delicious. I loved the vegetables and thought everything was very good. The customer service is so great they treat you like family.

Vegetarian options: The vegetables are crisp and fresh and served in light sauce very yummy so are egg rolls no meat in the egg rolls delicious“

“It's our first visit and it happened to be a lunch on a Saturday. It wasn't too crowded but it seemed like the staff were all preoccupied. We stood for several minutes and waited for someone to usher us to a table. We almost walked out after several minutes of waiting, until someone cleaned the nearby table and with an apologetic look, led us to our table.

They served roasted peanuts as appetizer. No one came around to give us a menu so I went to the counter and asked for a menu myself. I scanned the room and no one seems to think to service our table until I locked eyes with the person who seated us
She finally walked towards our table and took our order.

We ordered all classic Chinese dishes: wonton noodles soup, honey walnut shrimp, clam with black bean sauce, and chow fun with beef. They redeem themselves with their food. The servings were generous, all food tasted great. My favorite, hands down would be the soup and honey walnut shrimp.

June took care of us from beginning to end. She checked in on us frequently. She was polite, respectful, and courteous. We will come back again for sure to try out other dishes.“

“I really like their food, soups and other things, the sandwich is good and their service is very good. I think it is a family restaurant, recommended, but the only bad and unpleasant thing is their bathroom service, it is not recommended at all.“

“The food is delicious! the rice roll is very chewy and soft, have great texture! I come back here every time for the beef brisket noodle soup, because the noodle is so so good and beef is flavorful and tender, it has great amount of meat with reasonable prices!“

“the glazed and cinnamon sugar were classic yeast donuts yet had a super unique texture that was so satisfying. just fried enough to have a crisp shell but still light and chewy and melt in your mouth. easy in and out. we couldn’t even get out of the lot before eating them! such lovely staff, definitely recommend“

“Hole in the wall, hidden gem, mom & pop vibes! they take card!

I can't get over these egg noodles in this wonton mein! seems like most places serve it up clumped together and you need to split your chopsticks to break them apart - BUT NOT HERE. they are silky and bouncy! and the soup is nicely flavored, enhancing everything in the dish. you also get four big wontons filled with plump shrimp and pork. I also love their hainan chicken, well seasoned, and the filet mignon has a nice kick.

Nice selection of traditional asian dessert options in individual serving sides (tofu pudding with ginger syrup, "che thai", ube tofu, etc.) and they also sell their wontons/dumplings frozen + noodles in packages.

parking is available on the street!

limited seating, but a lot of folks are doing takeaway!“

“The food is good, the portions are generous and the people were very friendly. I have only used the take out, the food was hot and ready to go on time as promised. I plan to go back and try the dine in soon. From the expressions to I saw on the people there, I expect it to be a good experience.“

“I googled "best Chinese in LA" and then this popped up as the #1 place. So we drove - and had a very good meal. However, if you expect the classic Chinese dishes, you will be disappointed. This is Shezuan, "a different animal". So no rice, no sweet-and-sour-this-and-that. So be prepared for very spicy Szechuan food. Noodles. No rice. Try the dumplings, they were delicious. We ordered mild (1 out of 5 spice degrees) and we were burning inside (we had two separate orders of dumplings - but spice grade 1. There is no consistency, so be careful). So if spicy is what you are "in" for, you'll love it. The ambiance is sort of authentic ;-) - the sign on how to use the toilet (outside the restaurant in the alley) says more than words. But then, it was $100 all-in for the four of us only. My advice: I could barely understand the service language. Better check the menu before you go. As we were first-timers, I wanted to share three starters and three mains among the four of us and leave it up to the waitress to make us explore - she did not understand. I asked if they served beer. The answer was "noodles or dumplings". :-)“

“2nd ⏰️ - just as delicious. Our new Go To!“

“Need to make reservations, otherwise need to wait almost hour“

“it's nice place for dinning“

“The family was in the mood for some Korean Chinese food and the place closer to my house was closed so we found this place. With good reviews we decided to try it. For those that grew up with Korean Chinese food, this place is just like what you remember from back in the day. They didn't try to modernize anything and just kept it as is, just like it's supposed to be. Everything was good and it tasted fresh. I usually don't order Mongolian beef as most times, the meat is very chewy, but it wasn't here. It was tender and flavored very nicely. We also ordered the Noodles with Black Bean Sauce Noodle aka Jajangmyeon. I liked it but it wasn't great. My family on the other hand thought that it was great. The Sweet & Sour pork and the Fried Shrimp with hot garlic sauce were crunchy despite us ordering to go. Their portion size was also good. I find most places charge more AND reduce the portion size but here, although the prices did increase, the portion size is still good. That's a big plus in my book. Overall, I would come back here again and would recommend it to others.“

“The chewy noodles and pork bao were amazing! Can't recommend them enough. The ube ice cream bao was also unreal. Definitely recommend all three, for a fantastic meal!

Vegetarian options: A decent amount of tofu-based vegetarian options.

Parking: The restaurant only has about 3 dedicated parking spaces. Street parking was pretty difficult on a Saturday night.“

“My parents have been bringing me here since I was born. I still go 2-3 times a week. The prices are amazing and the food is so delicious. Highly recommend!!

Parking: Paid parking lot available next block over the restaurant“
