Asian Restaurants near San Gabriel

“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.“

“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. 💥🐟🌶️“

“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.“

“I just had the most incredible lunch at Dandan’s Guilin Rice Noodle! I started with their dried sour and spicy noodles and seriously, I couldn’t stop eating them! I tried to save room for the other dishes, but they were just too good. The lamb skewers were bursting with flavor, and everything else like the tofu, pig’s ear, preserved eggs, and edamame was simply amazing. Every bite was packed with deliciousness. If you haven’t been here yet, you’re missing out!“

“From the noodles to the broth to the brisket all 10/10, the workers and boss soo beyond nice! I felt so welcomed and taken care of, pho will always be my comfort food, amazing hospice at this restaurant. The thai tea is also great and perfectly sweetened“

“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.“

“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. 🥰“

“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. .“

“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.“
