This restaurant specializing in noodle soup dishes, but the overall experience was disappointing.
Firstly, the food quality is mediocre. The soup base is overly salty, and I always need to drink a lot of water afterward to balance it out. Furthermore, the prices are quite high compared to similar restaurants, making it feel overpriced for the quality of the food.
Secondly, the atmosphere is very noisy, which makes it unsuitable for anyone looking to enjoy a quiet meal. Additionally, the service is poor, as the staff seems to rush customers to pay their bills quickly to make room for new patrons.
In summary, this restaurant fails to deliver in terms of food, pricing, and service, leaving little reason to return. If you're looking for a high-quality dining experience, I would recommend exploring other options.

It’s really a super bad experience! I originally wanted to eat to warm myself up because I had a cold, but it turned out that in the winter, the front and back doors of the store were all wide open. I asked the waiter if he could close the door, but he only agreed not to close it at all. The waitress was even more outrageous. She ran over to us while we were eating and said, "Pay attention to the time." She meant that she would kick us out at nine o'clock...

What the hell? We didn’t know that online was just for self-pickup, so we thought it was just for reservations. When we went there, I asked, can we also eat there? no? Why did I mess them up? They had a bad attitude and were very impatient.

We were disappointed with our experience as one of the server (not pointing any other servers within the restaurant) placed the wrong order, and when we politely inquired about it, she insisted she hadn’t made a mistake and offered no apology. We expected a more attentive and considerate response, especially given the error.

It’s a very delicious little shop. It’s not big. The tables and chairs are very full. It’s very popular. If you go there at noon, you have to queue for half an hour. Fortunately, it tastes very good. The beef is very fresh and the beef ribs taste great. Highly recommended. The only drawback of Chaoshan Beef Hotpot is that the parking lot is too small and difficult to park. I still give it 5 points overall.

Chaoshan people, this is the most unlike Chaoshan hot pot place I have ever eaten
This place was packed on Friday night. I like the atmosphere here because there's a crowd here, and I'm enjoying it. the hot soup here and talking. Parking is really hard to find. Service is good this time but can be rough when it's very busy. The price is decent depending on what types of food you ordering. The chicken soup here is very good which is very recommended. The starter special is good especially the deep fried ball. Oysters Pancake is very good especially to remind me of the hometown flavor. Beef fried rice is very good and well flavored. House special beef noodle soup is ok but not my flavor tho. I recommend people to try the soup or oysters pancake when the winter comes.

In fact, I really like their food, but one of the waitresses was really speechless. We ordered chicken hot pot for dinner, as well as fried rice noodles, oyster pancakes, and several plates of beef. After we finished the hot pot, the woman came over and asked. Can I take it away? After we finished the hot pot, we said yes, but before we finished the dishes we ordered, the waiter came over and asked to take it away. There was still half a plate of fried rice noodles on the plate. We were eating, and she actually said When I wanted to take it away, I said I hadn't finished eating yet. She rolled her eyes and left. I really didn't understand it. If you wanted to get off work early and came to take it away when we hadn't finished eating, I felt very weird. impolite

The taste is what I like, especially the shacha sauce is delicious. I deducted 1 star because they put the bill on my table before I finished eating. It felt like they were urging me to leave, and the experience was not very good. I planned to take a take-out meal home after finishing the meal, but I hadn’t ordered the take-out order yet. When I saw the check, I hesitated to order take-out food to take away.

Would not come back again!! We had the A1 and A11; the beef was incredibly difficult to chew. It was tough and wasn't prepared well. most of all, the service was terrible! When we had questions about the dishes, the waitress was annoyed and answered in an irritated tone. When we had just finished eating our last bite, she put the bill immediately on our table. And tried to direct us on writing the tip, waited by our table while we were doing so. There's better beef noodle soups in the SGV. Don't go here

Update sept 2024,
We gave this restaurant another try after the negative review from last time. It seems now the attitude is better now. We got seated right away around lunch time. Upon seating, you will get their complimentary hot tea. It was nice and cute tea pot. But we think it was too small, if you drink lots of tea in between meal. But the good thing is they will refill your tea so you have constant hot tea. Good for cold weather. We had their beef noodle soup and cuttlefish fish noodle soup. Both were goods. In terms of the soup, they are all the same just the ingredients and meat preferences on each one. Soup is sweet and very warming. Also, there is sauce station, where you can get their sauces. Highly recommend their chili garlic and spicy Sacha sauce. Taste goods with their soup noodles. For parking, it was little small, maybe about than 15 to 20 spaces and street parking could be hit or miss since it was on the residential area. We will come back for another try for other dishes next time.

The old lady waiter has a very bad attitude!
It’s located on a busy street, not in a plaza behind a parking lot, but it does have a side parking lot. The service is great, as they serve the food quickly. My child especially liked the spicy sauce for the hotpot meat and rice noodles. The hotpot beef is great and next time we will try other hotpot options. We arrived late, around 7:50 pm on a Friday night, and had to wait about 20 minutes due to the restaurant's popularity.
Parking: Easy to park.
