Ma's House is a Chinese restaurant that offers an authentic and memorable dining experience. The restaurant is known for its warm hospitality and cozy atmosphere, making guests feel at home as soon as they walk in. The menu features a variety of dishes, each with its own unique and delicious flavor. The shrimp with spicy sauce and orange shrimp are two standout dishes, with the shrimp cooked to perfection and the sauces bursting with flavor. The hot noodles spicy lamb soup and beef soup with noodles are perfect for those looking for a hearty and filling meal.
Recently added reviews highlight the restaurant’s excellent thick sesame green onion bread, which customers describe as unbeatable and something even their Northern China-influenced in-laws found hard to replicate at home. The bread is praised for its flavor and can be easily refreshed using an air fryer. Customers also mention that sometimes the restaurant is short-staffed, but everyone tries their best, and efforts are appreciated.
The food remains decent, with dishes like beef short ribs, Kung Pao chicken, beef chow mein, and beef fried rice being worth trying, especially for tourists seeking halal Chinese options. The Whole Crispy Duck and Moo Shu Lamb are popular entrees, though opinions vary; the duck was considered flavorless and not seasoned enough before dipping, while the Moo Shu Lamb was praised for its juicy, tender, and lean meat. Lunch specials such as Fish with Spicy Black Bean Sauce, Fish with Spinach, and Kung Pao Scallops are also enjoyed, though some customers note that the scallops were fewer than expected.
Service has received some comments about needing improvement, but overall, Ma's House remains a favorite for those seeking authentic, halal Chinese cuisine in a welcoming, cozy environment. Despite some inconsistencies, it continues to be a popular spot for flavorful dishes and warm hospitality.
