It reminds me of the Jjajangmyeon I used to eat in Korea. Haha
The sweet and sour pork is so delicious that it makes me think that other dishes would be delicious as well.
A restaurant that makes you want to try other dishes.
The Chinese sweet potato stew served at the end with the bill is a delightful delicacy.

The service was friendly, delicious, and the price was reasonable, so I had a pleasant meal.“

“I’ve heard a lot of good things about Haidilao and finally came here for dinner today! I just wanna tell everyone to come here at least once! Everyone here is super friendly and helpful. They’re also very patient and knowledgeable about their menu. The most surprising is that, the staff team will sing a unique birthday songs to customers who come here for celebration. They also have some performances which are very entertaining. What an experience! Highly recommended!“

“This is an unforgettable dining experience for me! The atmosphere is very happy and inviting, all the decors are so fun and gives out good vibes. The large iron stew is a must-try—delicious and ideal for sharing. The menu has a lot of with famous Chinese dishes. My favorite and unexpected dish was the traditional desserts with pears and a lot of longevity herbs. Totally recommend for family or celebratory occasions!“

“This place is a gem! The food is truly authentic and even better than Din Tai Fung. Every dish was flavorful, fresh, and served piping hot. The service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and quick. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for delicious Taiwanese cuisine!“

“I've never met such honest and beautiful people before. This restaurant has some of the best characters in the business. When I say they loaded my plate ,it filled to the brim. food was beyond expectation, which is my compliments to the chef. If this helps you decide to eat at this restaurant, I've done my job.“

“Ordered Hainan Chicken and Double Potato Noodles. The Hainanese chicken is very tender and not fishy at all. The double potato noodles have a lot of ingredients. I ordered it extra spicy and it's full of flavor. I also ordered some fried skewers and they tasted good too.“

“It's the same as the best Chinese restaurant in town when I was a child. This is the only place where you can enjoy the same atmosphere and taste as you remember. I really, really love this restaurant.

Rajogi, scorched rice, black bean noodles, jjamppong, and noodles are all so delicious.“

“Found this hidden gem in Whittier! Tried the dumplings and they were authentic and delicious! They also have a lot of different items such as noodle dishes and fried appetizers. Ordered the fried potstickers, dumplings, and sesame noodle, definitely recommend the potstickers they were so good!“

“What an awesome little restaurant that popped up here. Was looking to try something new and found this amazing little bao spot. The most amazing thing is how they fry these bao. The bottom is hard and crunchy and the top is soft, making a soup filled bao in either seafood, curry or the standard pork. They sell them in quantities of 6 and 2 to 3 is enough to fill me! Highly recommend a quick lunch or dinner here, you won’t be disappointed in the authentic flavors.“

“Got some craving for spicy Szechuan food so went to try this place. We ordered the fish fillet and intestine in hot chili sauce. That was good. Right amount of spiciness and broth. A little bit more meat in the pot, that would have been great. A small bowl of rice is $2. A bit steep. Service was great. The restaurant is facing the Peral plaza and nice to dine and people watch.“

“Super fast and friendly service. It's always so yummy eating at this place with my two girls and their cousins. Super easy access to the restaurant! Noodles and their mandu are so good - actually all their menu items are so delicious! Can't wait until we try again next time.“

“Wagyu House was excellent! George was a great! He was helpful in telling us what was good and what was not. All of his recommendations were great.“

“It’s such a treasure shop that you have to drive 30 miles to eat there. In particular, you should try their steamed buns and dumplings. The first choice is the green onion and pork stuffing. You can tell it is handmade as soon as you eat it. The dumpling skin is thin and the stuffing is big. The meat stuffing is full and chewy. The seasoning is very fragrant and has a homely taste. . The store is spacious and clean, and the waiters are very friendly. Great praise!“

“I had a positive experience here. My first time to order, the girl at the counter was nice and patient with me to explain everything and let me try couple of items for taste.
Black menu is for already prepared items and white menu is made to order.
Food was very tasty.
I ordered 3 item dish from black menu that came with noodles, steam white rice, spicy chicken, beef and broccoli and jalapeno chicken.
Hot and sour soup
White menu item chicken and broccoli
My only one problem is that they either they forgot to give me steam rice with chicken and broccoli or if it comes additional cost then please specify that on your menu. Not having any rice to eat my chicken and broccoli was not pleasant.“

“Goooooo!
The lamb here is so juicy, and the rice is wonderfully fragrant. The owner thoughtfully soaks the ?, making them less sour—such a nice touch! Decors r simple, beautiful design and is very clean.

Hot milk teeeeeeeeeea!!!!!“

“We were looking for a dim sum place and after a quick read through of reviews I thought this place had some. Well there was like 5 things. We ordered the chicken feet and it was pretty good. The rest were like actual authentic Chinese food (that you probably will need an acquired taste for) so unless you feel adventurous this isn’t your typical Chinese fare.I gave four stars because food wasn’t very hot although served pretty speedily. Portions were good too. The environment was ok, like a mom and pop restaurant with limited seating which is what I’d go for quiet, quick bite while watching some cdrama.. it’s just that this type of Chinese food isn’t my thing.“

“Surprisingly tasty! It's a hole-in-the-wall type of family restaurant. Food portions are substantial and rather affordable in price. Taste? Authentic mama type of cooking.

- Wonton: It is very good, but not the best in Socal like someone suggested.
- Pot stickers: The best dish today. Very crispy and filled with lean meat. Little fat.
- Porridge: porridge of the day is a sweet millet porridge. Not bad, very "Taiwan" like
- Steamed bun: lots of filling. Great baos.

Overall, satisfied and will be back! Recommend!“

“Excellent value, wonderful variety of dishes I haven't seen at other noodle places, and food came out quickly. Ordered Hainan chicken noodle soup, wonton noodle soup, green beans, and popcorn chicken and the portions were so generous we had to bring back more than half our food. The Hainan chicken was a particularly interesting dish because I haven't seen that flavor offered around these parts. Had a great meal and will be back for sure“

“OC Friends - looking for an amazing new Chinese food place or longing for a place to bring you food better than the long lost Yen Ching? Look no further than Royal Wok Orange. Ordered: Egg drop soup Cream cheese wontons Egg rolls Beef chew mein Honey walnut shrimp ORANGE CHICKEN❤️ Chicken fried Rice THEY KILLED IT!“

Parking: It shares a parking lot with other restaurants and businesses… so it’s ok!

Kid-friendliness: My kid says the food is kid friendly“

“Closed for Labor Day, September 2, 2024.

Great Chinese food, close to Irvine Regional Park!

Honey Walnut Shrimp serving size was a bit small, and it didn't come with veggies (e.g. cabbage).

Kid-friendliness: High chairs and booster seats“

“The reviews are strong, so my expectations were high. I was impressed with how generous the regular sized servings were, plenty for two of us as we shared two different dishes and had leftovers. The food was very colorful and appealing and fresh looking. In Particular, I appreciate that the chicken seemed to be freshly prepared for the dish rather than the very typical pre-cooked tough and dry chicken I find in so many Asian dishes. This was a huge plus!

However, based on the taste of the food it was a three star experience. I wish I could give them five stars, and I gave them an overall of four because of the above reasons. The two dishes we had, cashew chicken and spicy tofu eggplants tasted almost identical. They were bland, and there was absolutely no spice in spicy eggplant. There was nothing outstanding in the flavors. Just blah! No garlic or spices or ginger or anything to distinguish them. I love Asian food and food from around the world when it has interesting flavors and they use lots of spices that are not typical in American food. So to go to such a restaurant and have a great start with the beautiful appearance of the food was hugely disappointing.

It won’t take much for them to up their game and become outstanding. I hope they read this review and pay attention to the flavor profile of their dishes. I would love to go back and look forward to interesting flavors because of the great things they’re doing well.

Lastly, the restaurant is very fresh and clean looking to be very new. Apparently it’s been open about a year. They are so close to being great. I hope they make it!“

“Good place for Halal Chinese food. The food is excellent in taste no doubt but on the greasy side. We ordered the Hot & Sour soup with chicken, 3 flavor fried rice and Garlic beef with jalapenos. Everything tasted wonderful...
Prices are reasonable as well.
I would surely recommend them to anyone who ways good tasting Chinese food...“

“It is nice Chinese restaurant, located in Valley Boulevard area of City of Industry. I have read good reviews, about this restaurant. So, one day, after work, in May of 2024, I decided to grab my dinner at this establishment. When I came, there was ample of space, to sit down, and enjoy a meal. Of course, my visit was in the middle of the week. In addition, the staff were helpful and attentive. They also recommended certain meals to try out. Those meals were well-made, and in timely manner. At the same time, they were delicious. Of course, the prices, too, 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 restaurant. It is located at Rhino Plaza shopping area.“

“First visit with a friend who has been there multiple times and is one of her favorites. Ordered Walnut Shrimp, MaPo Tofu, Sautéed Eggplant, "A" Vegetable, Hot Chili Pepper Whole Fish. All dishes were delicious. My only disappointment was the amount of fish ratio to the price. Extensive menu and looking forward to returning to try other dishes.“

“All vegan Chinese restaurant in Chino. I enjoyed the Szechuan Eggplant dish with the Spring Rolls appetizer. The latter was crisp without being heavy or oily as can sometimes happen. The eggplant was mostly sweet with a little spice helped by the chili oil. Very large portion, as well. The hostess/server knew the large menu well and was able to recommend dishes based on my interests. She checked in periodically but unobtrusively. This is not to be taken for granted these days as dining out slowly changes. Updated from previous review on 2024-08-24“

“Came in on a Thursday around 5. No one in the building besides worker. So I was u sure at first. But so glad I stayed. I could hear the woks going in the back after I ordered so I knew it was going to be ok. But I was great. Amazing fresh flavors. I will be back for sure!
And they pack your leftovers togo for you. I really appreciate that little extra. I havent seen a llace do that in a long time. Thank you.“

“Chinese restaurant, friendly service, speaking Chinese!
Fried rice is delicious
Fried dumplings are delicious
Hot and sour soup is delicious
Beef burrito is delicious
Add raw chili?️even better?“

“was fresh & flavorful great service“

“It ‘s so Yammy and health food!“

“So glad they opened one in this area so we don't have to go to the one in Rosemead! The food is consistently good here and we have always enjoyed all the dishes we have ordered. We've never had to wait for long compared to their other location. Love their beef rolls, dan dan noodle and beef noodle soup but honestly, everything is delicious. It seems like everyone really like their popcorn chicken so we will have to try that next time!“

“Let's get to the point: BEST LAMB SOUP EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. ? Don't get me wrong, the lamb dumplings and the meat pies are both freaking excellent, but the soup just takes it to a whole next level. It's amazingly savory and flavorful and you can really taste the quality lamb and all that lamb flavor in the broth itself. ?

There is a full sauce bar where you can make sauces for your soup or your dumplings. The sauce bar also has complimentary soup broth for you to have with your meal or refill your soup, (though this is a much watered down version of the real entree soup item.) They also give out complimentary milk tea, edamame, and snack jerky for the table. We also got complimentary milk tea while you wait, as the line can be long during peak hours, (though it does move fast.) So much free stuff! ?

My friend who is from Inner Mongolia was the one that took me here, and even she was impressed and said this is the closest thing to the food from her hometown. ?

This was such a great experience and the food was so freaking good that this has become a destination spot whenever I can make it out here to Rowland Heights! ?“

“Hainan chicken was really good! We also ordered seafood fried noodles and seafood fried rice. The shrimp was pretty fresh. They were kind enough to accept our special requests for reduced sodium. The staff are very friendly despite being busy.“

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

“This is one of my favorite restaurants, I've been going there for years.The food is just super, from the appetizers to the main dishes nothing has ever disappointed. When I walk through the door they know what I want to start off with and will occasionally recommend a new dish.“

“Came to Dun Huang for our birthday dinner as per my sister's recommendations. Their menu is quite extensive and we opted to order several dishes to eat family style; love the convenience of ordering through the app; which allows all members of your party to add their desired dishes. All the dishes were well seasoned and very delicious. My favorite dishes were the whole fish and the cucumber appetizer. Will definitely be coming back to try their other dishes.“

“Good Chinese food with family or friends“

“Pilaf and yogurt are good. The noodles mixed with cucumber and oily pork are delicious! The noodles are as good as those eaten locally in Xinjiang. The vegetables are made with good ingredients and fried just right. The slivers are chewy and chewy. The portion is a bit too small and you have to pay for extra noodles. The mutton kebabs were just so-so. The service attitude is very good, I will come again. Overall, it is a very good Xinjiang style restaurant?

Kid-friendliness: kids friendly food options and services“

“Mama Lu Dumpling House is an absolute gem for dumpling lovers! The handmade dumplings are always fresh and bursting with flavor, especially the juicy pork and chive and xiao long bao that arrive perfectly steamed and full of delicious broth. The scallion pancakes are crispy and not too greasy, while the noodle dishes bring authentic, comforting flavors that make you feel like you're in the heart of Shanghai. The ambiance is no-frills, but it only adds to the charm, and the staff is attentive and efficient even during busy hours. If you’re craving authentic Chinese dumplings and noodles, Mama Lu is a must-visit!“

“A Culinary Gem in the Heart of Westminster - BAOS HOG Review Stepping into BAOS HOG, you're immediately welcomed by a fusion of contemporary decor and inviting ambiance. This small, yet noteworthy establishment stands out in Westminster for its innovative approach to bao buns, often known as "baos." Each bao is a masterpiece, with the Hog special possibly being the star of the show. The pork is succulent and flavorful, indicative of the care in preparation. Accompanied by crisp, fresh vegetables and a secret sauce that adds an unexpected but delightful kick, it's a harmonious blend of textures and tastes. Beyond the baos, the menu is an eclectic mix, suggesting influences from various cuisines, a bold move that seems to pay off. The drinks selection complements the food, with both traditional options and more unique offerings, indicating that the proprietors are aficionados seeking to provide a full culinary experience. Service is efficient and warm.“

“Very good home style meal. Not the cheapest, but good valued meal.“

“Long story but me and my friends needed to eat really fast because we had to be somewhere and because of the rush we were being a bit confusing but the employee there was still very chill about it and had amazing customer service. Our group as a whole ordered a bunch of side dishes and one main dish but the food still came out in a jiffy fresh, tasty, and hot. I feel really bad because I didn’t give a tip for how well of a job they did since we were in such a rush but I wanted to leave a review on how good this place is.“

“I’d say this place is better than din tai fung when it comes to straight quality and taste of the food! Everything is seasoned so well and reasonably priced for how much you get when you order. It’s a staple place to grab a bite for dinner and I love that they serve hot tea when you’re seated. Perfect spot for rainy days or to satisfy your Asian food cravings!“
