“I recommend for my friends and partners, a suitable place....nice meal🥰“

“This is a great place, Korean style cuisine with k- pop vibe. The food is amazing!! First time here with family. My family loved it, great place with family and friends. I definitely recommend the chap chee it amazing! There used to be plenty of parking places in the area. Just have to pay parking.“

“Chinese Café serves amazing, delicious, healthy Chinese food! This food is so good! We had the food delivered. They were on time, the food was hot and fresh, and each item was boxed in plastic containers. Egg rolls and rice were in traditional take out paper containers. If an item has pan-fried noodles, then the noodles and the sauce is packaged separately so the dish itself will be fresh. Also, each box for a part of an item was labeled so we'd know what goes with which food item. Soup came in soup containers and also in plastic bags so the soup wouldn't spill accidentally. The food is traditional Cantonese Chinese food. We ordered BBQ Pork, Won Ton Soup, Green Pepper Beef, Chicken Egg Foo Young, Beef Pan Fried Noodles, Sweet and Sour Pork, and Vegetable Egg Rolls. The flavors of the meat and vegetables are fresh! The egg rolls are crispy and delicious! The food is low in sodium! Fortune cookies were free with great fortunes! I highly recommend Chinese Café. 5 Stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Some of the best dumplings I’ve ever had. I loved the pork dumplings. The vegan ones are outstanding too. I’ve gotten them 3 occasions now. I will definitely get them whenever they are nearby.“

“Kinkan feels like a love letter to flavor. We came to celebrate a friend’s birthday and left feeling nourished in every way. Each dish was beautifully crafted, delicate yet bold. Perfect for a quiet celebration, a romantic date, or a night to remember. A true neighborhood treasure.“

“Small, strip mall establishment but the food was amazing. Authentic, family run environment. I ordered the combo poki bowl and was impressed with the proportion and the flavor. I will definitely come back to try other options on the menu.“

“You're not gonna find a better meal! Incredible home cooked breakfast - bacon, eggs, pancakes and hash browns, made by a man that has cooked his whole life and knows cooking. Nothing better. And the Asian style noodles! Incredibly good. I could eat every meal here! I'll be back ALOT!“

“I've been coming to Pan Tang for close to 30 years. The food is consistently fabulous, with the Thai iced tea, chicken satay (with amazing peanut sauce) and the shrimp pineapple fried rice being my favorites. The family that has owned this place is so kind and wonderful. Best Thai good in town. Even used it for my wedding rehearsal.“

“Had gyudon bowl & chicken katsu curry bowl both enjoyable. Very filling,
not skiddish on protein. Salmon bento looks very appealing, sauce a bit too sweet for me. It was a happy surprise for us, will definitely come back to taste other things. Very casual place with outdoor sitting.“

“good. service the. Lady. snow. that's. does. my. pedi. she. does. a. good job“

“I’ve come here many times—it’s one of my favorite restaurants. The beef noodle soup is my go-to, but honestly, it’s hard to pick a favorite because everything is delicious.

Highly recommend the dumplings—they’re handmade, and you can even buy them frozen at a great price. The server reminds me of my aunties, and the food tastes like grandma made it. It’s like a cozy Sunday at mom’s, and she just brought out the menudo.

I also love that the music stays true to the culture. They play Mandarin songs, not some watered-down English playlist. It makes the whole experience feel authentic—like I’ve been invited into someone’s home. I’m always happy here. 🥰“

“Liangpi LA is the most delicious. As a Xi'an native, I have eaten all over Xi'an restaurants in Los Angeles. This is the first time I have tasted something so delicious. In other restaurants, they are either not vinegary enough or the dishes are messy.
The attitude of the boss and waiters is very good.“

“Food is always awesome. Plenty of options from Ramen to sushi. The only thing is that for some reason they never let me sit in the booth by the wall. The first time it was only 2 of us and they said our party was too small. The second time they said our party was too big with 5 of us. Maybe some day I'll get to sit in that booth. .“

“Highly recommend here ! The inside is very cute small details about fish/poke haha
The quality is really good for the price
Customer service is so good their bento is so good especially the spicy bento and I love baked salmon roll I end up always coming back here when I’m deciding what to eat !! :)“

“This is a newly opened restaurant, so the environment inside the store is very clean and the furniture looks new. There are not too many choices on the menu. The Hainanese Chicken Rice is very tasty, but the chicken is slightly less umami. The Bamboo Shoots and Chicken Soup Noodles have a sweet soup base, which is worth a try.“

“Located inside Sheraton hotel next to the bar area. We tried seafood tasting menu. Food was good but nothing to rave about. Most of the dishes used crab meat for the main or for garnishment: It was overdone. Service was good, nice ambiance although lights were turned off in some part of the restaurant.“

“Really tasty pork belly, excellent noodle texture in the mee goreng, mala mee, and chili mee bowls.There could have been more seasoning on the steamed chicken and fried chicken side dishes.I loved the limeade, but my friend with the Western palate wasn't as impressed. It was too tart for him.Parking on a Monday afternoon is super easy, and the restaurant itself wasn't crowded at all. It was really echo-y in there. I also think the restroom could be nicer.“

“very good comfort food that you can really dig into<3“

“whoa. a gem! tucked away deep in a community club and completely unassumming. the sweet thai lady at the counter gave great service and suggested the thai noodle dishes. got the spicy noodle and am so impressed. great prices, good portion, delicious. wow.“

“Had an amazing time at this restaurant! The grilled fish was absolutely bursting with flavor—perfectly cooked, soaked in a rich, spicy broth with tons of garlic, peppers, and veggies. We picked the spicy level and it was just the right kick to wake up your taste buds!

Loved the fun presentation on the hot plate, keeping everything warm and bubbling throughout the meal. The little details (like the sesame seeds, jalapeños, and vermicelli noodles) really made it feel authentic and satisfying.

Also tried the crispy silkworm pupae—definitely an adventurous snack, but surprisingly addictive once you get into it!

Cozy vibes, friendly staff, and solid menu. Highly recommend if you’re into bold flavors and something a little different from your usual dinner spot. 💥🐟🌶️“

“Service was fast, friendly and very helpfull....food was also great by the way. I came on a weekend and it was very busy and had to wait but still was well worth it.“

“Great location on the 2nd floor of the Weller Court shopping center! They validate parking and have very fast service. You can order 50% off the regular menu or do all you can eat sushi. I opted for the premium all you can eat sushi and it was pretty good! I love the box they presented the premium items in! You gotta try them out!“

“Delicious food, Always good quality. I have been going here weekly for over a year. The only thing that is frustrating, is that their closing time is not accurate with what they have it listed on google, I’ve had doordash orders go through that never came in, and i showed up to the location to be denied.. 30 minutes before listed closing time.“

“This place is an amazing dining experience. A great alternative to Korean bbq or hot pot, you order different skewers and let them cook in front of you, then enjoy. All the different meats and vegetables were delicious and offered lots of variety so there is something for everyone. The grill automatically twirls the kebobs giving an even cook, and the sauces and spices are very flavorful. Very helpful staff and clean interior.“

“The food is priced on the expensive end, but that is to be expected for attraction food. Not that I minded anyway, because my entire meal was filling (the portion sizes are MASSIVE) and delicious. Well seasoned, served hot, and promptly arrived even during the height of a lunch rush. The atmosphere is unbeatable“

“Great bakery tucked away in a small trip mall on Las Tunas and Mission. Although small, the baked goods are so good here. They are also very creative with their pastries. This is the only shop I can find gigantic pineapple buns. One of the bun here equals to probable 4 to 5 regular buns that you would typically find at dim sum. They can also custom made cakes from 6 inch to whatever sizes you want with various different flavors and designs. We just ordered a 6 in chestnut cake with rose flower decoration for my mom's birthday. Order was done efficiently and timely. We ordered the cake one day before and was able to pick it up by next morning. I also like their Chinese pastries. One of my favorites is their Portuguese egg tart or Pastéis de Nata as they called the Custer in Portugal. The skin is so crispy and the egg tart filling tasted so good. I just can't stop eating them. Probably I have to run a couple of miles the next day to burn off the calories. There are so many great pastries here. I just have to come back to try them all. The owner is so friendly and she is always very helpful to introduce us to new products.“

“#54 fish with the special sauce is the gem of the menu - its always perfectly crispy and flavorful! I would suggest getting the larger fish if sharing with 2+ people. Restaurant owner and staff were very friendly and welcoming! Do yourself a favor and eat here next time you’re craving something delicious.“

“Muy buena comida y buena atención!💯“

“Had a Taro Milk Tea. Satisfies a craving and not too bad for the price. Have been here years so familiar with the drinks and they won't be a must have. Just moreso convenient and accessible. Keep in mind they prefer cash, using credit requires a $.50 charge.

Parking: Small plaza. But decent amount of parking for a quick stop.“

“Wow one of the strongest standing Hong Kong western restaurants in SGV! I have been to this restaurant a few times as a child and it's still going despite Great Recession and COVID pandemic! Last time I came, it brought back a lot of childhood memories and the food was still amazing! Will come back in the future!“

“Best deal in town. We’ll be putting this place on our favorite restaurants list to come back often.“

“I swear this place has the best happy hour and best service and the food is off the chain. Judy and the bartenders were the best. Judy made sure I was ok and gave the extra greater service in making sure my time at the bar was great kudos to her, and he staff with great service made the day even better!“

“Excellent bahn mi! Pictured is the classic cold cut sandwich that comes with a deliciously salty sauce on the side. The bread is the ideal texture of crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. If you love bahn mis, this place will not disappoint! The staff is also very friendly.“
