“I know the place is under a new owner and this is my first time getting takeout from them in general. The food was very hot when I picked up. I only got orange chicken and fried rice because it's just me eating for dinner. I wish there was a dinner combo. Additionally, I would like if there were some things in the fried rice aside from a tiny bit of scrambled egg, some frozen peas and carrots with a bit of onion would do the trick. Flavor of the orange chicken is great. Making the rice more interesting would keep me coming back. I'll come again and try different things.“
“Best won ton soup around!! I'm so glad I found this restaurant when searching for won ton soup one day. It is truly the best won to soup I have ever tried; very tasty and packed with won tons and veggies. I was definitely willing to try more dishes after that, and did! I have my family hooked on their food. Every time I call, they answer. I have ordered for pick up and for delivery. They're fast and always have been very friendly. I will continue to order from them and hope others give them a try as well.“
“I love Pine & Crane! Seriously amazing Taiwanese food. The restaurant is stylish, modern and clean while the food is very authentic and completely delicious. My kids were surprised at how tasty everything was. Healthy too! We will def be back often!!!! If they have it, the lotus root salad is a must! 3 cup chicken is amazing, wontons, etc… I want to try the wood ear mushrooms next!!!“
“Xiao long bao is excellent. Beef noodles are flavored just right. Beef is very tender. Noodle texture is perfect. Braised pork belly is very yummy. One suggestion is to slice the pork belly thinner. It's hard to eat a large chunk and get all the layers.“
“AMAZING Expect waiting outside, party of 2 was 20-25 min Saturday afternoon and cannot call in to be added to it. Everything on the menu is great but the French toast, pork belly fried rice, and strawberry tea were the best. Limited seating and one restroom but highly recommend.“
“The food was so authentic it stunned my mom. I've never seen her so pleasantly surprised by a restaurant. It's hard to find dishes like Liangpi and Big Plate Chicken outside of China, and even if you can the flavors are often diluted. The noodles here were perfectly chewy, the stew in the BPC was rich and thick (rivaling Dolan's even). And the prices aren't bad at all. We'll be coming here again, and exploring their other locations too.“
“2024 update: dined in for the first time and was underwhelmed with the food. Chickpea curry is decent, kaya toast is decent. The dan dan noodles are straight up not good! Extremely salty and fatty. Skipped dessert (unheard of for me) because the main dishes already made me feel so heavy and unhealthy.2022 takeout review: The laksa is incredible. It is easily two meals (can serve two people). I'm not a spice person and this was at the upper end of my spice tolerance but not too spicy. A side of clay oven bread is really good to dip in it. My only complaint was I ordered takeout and my order was ready 15 minutes later than the original estimate.“
“I absolutely love this restaurant. It's a must stop for my daily when we are in town. Food is amazing and super cheap. The staff always remembers us when we come back.Parking: Parking lot in the back and parking on the street. Both are free.Kid-friendliness: High chairs and boosters provided.“
“MIAN is a wonderful place for some really good food. There are great selections and the menu will satisfy all dietary requirements. The Crispy Half Chicken is great and the Spicy Beef Noodle is a can’t miss dish. This is a place that you will want to go back to again and again to taste everything on the menu.“
“So much fun in this clean and festive karaoke spot in the heart of Koreatown LA! Service is impeccable, drink choices are abundant and finger foods were exactly what we were craving. We had so much fun singing together- the song choices were plentiful and we found all the ones we were looking for“
“I sampled their famous xiao long bao, delicious dumplings, savory fried rice and garlic string beans. Each dish was a taste experience, from the delicious dumplings in broth to the perfectly seasoned fried rice. The service is great and the atmosphere is inviting. Don't miss this place for authentic Taiwanese cuisine and unforgettable flavors. It has the taste of home.“
“Known for their highly Instagrammable "Magic Noodles" that turn from blue to purple when you add their sauce. Fun and pretty decent meal with good sized prawns for protein. We also got their Drunken Noodles. A little smaller for the portion comparatively, but overall good flavor. They also have a brunch menu and Bottomless Mimosas for $25 wirh a 90 minute time limit! Pretty good deal and you can walk to the West Hollywood bars from here. Service was good and definitely kept our glasses filled! Ambiance is a little dated, but still cute.“
“Ordered Kung pao chicken & beef broccoli combo also green tea (you know weather does funny things to us) service was awesome food was made to order I could hear them fire up the wok for my order. Received quickly. This is a perfect working man's lunch spot. I was under $18 for order & for Halal Quality that's a really good deal.“
“My wife and I had an amazing dinner experience at Chin Chin! The host greeted us warmly and immediately.We ordered the new Garlic Chili Crisp wontons and they were so delectable. The broth the wontons came in was delicious and had the right amount of spice, we couldn't resist finish it like a soup. My wife and I decided to share 3 entrees. The Crispy Spicy honey chicken, General Tso's chicken, and Vegetable Fried Rice. All were top notch! The highlight was the General Tso's chicken recommended by our fantastic server, Omar.Omar's hospitality was grade A! The manager also came by to check how we were doing and made sure our dining experience was going well. Outstanding service by all. Great establishment and the cherry on top was that there was easy parking access off of the busy sunset strip.We will be returning very soon. Five Stars!!!“
“I moved her about a week ago and Uncle John's was one of the first places I stopped at and I now have to look no further for anything else. I get coffee here every day and have had two of their lunch boxes (today was bbq pork w sesame cold noodles, minus a few bites I took before the photo) for only $8 and what great portions and quality they give you. The place is always filled with people eating and talking, customer service is the best. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone!!“
“You know a spot is good when the only menu displayed has faded photos of various dishes with no descriptions or dish titles. Only the real ones know. Every time I come here, I meet a local who’s been coming here since the 80s or 90s and it is so comforting to know that a place like this exists. Love the food, owner, consistency, quality, and history of this place.Run by one guy and one guy only, make sure to be patient while waiting for your order if it gets packed, maybe clean up the tables around you while you wait. Doesn’t hurt to help.“
“The size of everything is double the size of normal dim sum. Their portion size is crazy be careful how much you order! Food is made to order! Comes out piping hot!! The food is 100% authentic. So delicious HUGE! Great jasmine tea. Funny and friendly staff. Clean inside. We had sooo much left overs. Plenty of seating. AC. I will definitely come back again. Again. And again.“
“The good : I love how they went for a chic yet street food aesthetic for their restaurant. I think it really emulates Chinese food which definitely plays into the experience of eating here. The portions and platings were very good and we were able to try many dishes. With that said I think the food was just okay. The Mid : Maybe it's because I am Chinese so I've tasted better Chinese food before so that's why I wasn't super impressed. I will say tho I really liked the fried rice because they added the Chinese sausage to it which makes the taste really authentic keke. There definitely is better and Chinese food in the LA area because they definitely are a western twist. but I do think the ambiance makes up for the lack of an oomph factor in the flavors and I also wish they cut back on the oil a little.“
“The food is phenomenal. The people are fantastic the service I love it especially when I order for delivery it's always on time it's warm. It's well worth the price of the food and the restaurant was newly remodeled so it's a great place to eat. The owners are fantastic. The waiters are good, you can't go wrong at this place keep up the great work. We love you guys to death your number one customer“
“Great food, better service. Ash was our server and was fantastic. Checked on our food multiple times and made sure we were okay. Even told us ahead of time how backed up the kitchen was which gave us guidance as to what to expect. Made sure we were taken care of very well. Fantastic server, thank you!“
“I’ve eaten here a few times, both dine in and delivery. The kebabs are always amazing. The spice mix is truly incredible.If you dine in, you make an order on a mobile site (via a QR code on the table) that lets your whole party add to the order and see what everyone else has ordered — it’s very convenient for a full table where you plan to eat family style!“
“The food is authentic Cantonese Chinese food. It’s freshly made to order. The flavor is scrumptious. My Mom and Dad went there before I was even conceived. Now Iv taken my family. The decor has never changed nor been upgrade or kept up. Visually it’s unpleasing and very tight space. It’s a hole in the wall. If you only care about the food then definitely come here.Kid-friendliness: Your kids can be rowdy lol..“
“Meizhou Dongpo isn't quite what it used to be when it first opened years ago in terms of the quality of the dishes. It's still a very nice place to sit and take a break from strolling through the mall, but it's now best to stick to a few of their most popular dishes while steering clear of the rest. For many dishes, prices have gone up quite a lot while not preserving the quality of the dishes. The serrano pepper beef and crispy roast duck are still quite good and worth a visit. Other items that used to be amazing are no longer so, like the fried rice, which now amounts to very little other than small amounts of egg and cabbage in a large serving of oily rice.“
“Zzamong. Has the most comforting seafood noondle soup I've EVER had. We simply couldn't stop eating it. despite being full. It called the JJAMPPONG (KOREAN SPICY SEAFOOD NOODLE SOUP) and it's to die for. next time I'll try the crispy or sizziling rice soup! One Jjamppong is big enough for to hungry people with a Pork Dumpling App to start. (Also the best steamed pork dumplings I've ever had in recent memory. ) Happy eating!“
“Visited my daughter at UCLA. We wanted Asian food and headed to Sawtelle. Walked up and down the street and saw many places that looked inviting. We settled on Dan Modern Chinese because we saw dim sum on some tables that looked good. We ordered soup dumplings, dumplings, bok choy and noodles. The dumplings were very good and the noodles and bok choy were decent. I would come back for dumplings but would pass on the noodles. If you crave dim sum, this place will satisfy your craving but dont expect much from the noodles. Noodles were thick and chewy with a gravy like sauce. Homemade noodles but not the best.“
“Has the potential to be the best Chinese food in the valley but they suffer from terrible inconsistencies. Dining in is really your only option as delivery is often cold and mushy. Lunch is great! Dinner, (same dishes), not so much. The bearded waiter is definitely a &$£€ and not cut out to be a service person. He definitely takes away from the dining experience which is a shame because dining in gets you far superior food to their takeout.“
“Small mom-and-pop type of chinese restaurant. Cantonese/HongKong style cuisine at reasonable prices. Old school vibes. Parking meters are along the street. I’ve dined in and ordered take out. They also do custom large orders for take out.Parking: dozens of parking spots along the street“
“If you can't get to SGV, where the quality and selection of Chinese food is incredible, Sam Woo is a great valley option. Standouts are their BBQ meats; roast duck, roast pork , char siu. Good selections of all noodle dishes; chow menial, Lo Meir, chow fun. Then like most Chinese restaurants hundreds of options. The key here is their consistent authentic dishes. Casual and good service.“
“This was my first order from here. I could just tell that they do care about their customers. I love Pad Thai I know it's like the most basic thing but not everyplace can hit it. Everytime I order through Postmates or door dash from different places that would be only 15 mins away, The Pad Thai would just get so dry and got no flavor when it gets to me eventho there would be a request saying "please make it extra saucy" no one seemed to ever listen. But Delish Thai Kitchen CAME THROUGH with the extra saucy and so much flavor. And they even left me a note I really do appreciate that you did that. Thank you Gonna be my favorite place to order from now.“
“I just want to say that I’ve been eating at this restaurant for many years, always been happy with the taste of the food and the great service I receive. My server Jen was outstanding and manager Kim has always been great to me.Thank you for being the best.“
“I stop here sometimes in the morning before work to get donuts for everyone. They're so good. It's just a woman and her husband and both of them are super nice and super helpful. I went in today with a friend of mine to get lunch and it was really good, really filling and affordable. The woman working seems to really care about the customers and will talk to them and remember little bits about them. If you're ever in Silverlake you have to stop here. Q“
Hot Pot • $$
“I took my Korean friends to eat Malatang, and we all thought it was delicious. The taste was good but a little salty. We also ordered the fragrant pot and rice. This store has a water purifier, which is quite convenient for self-service drinking:)“
“The most kind staff! It’s no wonder this place is busy - my friend and I had the best time here and I look forward to returning. Special shout out to Jared who made us feel welcome and to our bartender in the back room who was so lovely - I think her name started with an E. 10/10“
“Food was given in HUGE portions. Lots of food per bowl/combo. Excellent service: friendly owners who greeted upon arrival. Restaurant itself has a few tables and it has sriracha sauce and soy sauce. It's good temperature and quiet. Lots of different food and drinks you can buy. Overall a cheap place with great food and portions and good customer service.“
“This is one of the best restaurants we know of. Not only is the food fantastic, but the owners and staff are amazing people. They are very kind and considerate, and very willing to accommodate large groups, or an occasional special request, etc. We've had several larger groups events catered by them as well and they are terrific to work with about these. And let me mention again how good the food is! They have a big menu and we've never had a dish that didn't look and taste great. It's not just Chinese food but they have some other Asian dishes as well.“
“I've been coming here for the last 5 years. The portions are great and the soups are to die for. My go-to soup is the Liuzhou soup. Just a heads up, the establishment definitely caters to a majority Chinese crowd, so you know the food is legit. Be respectful and keep an eye out for your order number as they will probably announce it in Mandarin first lol“
“This place was great overall! We found parking on a Sunday afternoon right in front and our server was kind and attentive. It wasn't busy so we got quick service. The black bean noodle (Jajangmyun) was up to par with what I've had before, fried rice was also good, and the sweet and sour pork (Tangsyuk) was DELICIOUS - super crunchy and more than enough sauce.“
“I'm giving this a 4 because it's good for Chinese fast food, probably more of a 3.5 but we can't do that, the food quality is not the best but the taste is good with everything being moist and juicy, I live off of Sepulveda and Devonshire so it wasn't something I will not be going to much because of distance but had to try it and was pleased with it.“
“Our experience with Aldo was fabulous! he was professional, courteous, and a wonderful server. He made our experience at Chinchin incredibly pleasant, and I would say he is among the best that I have experienced here in the many decades that I have been coming to Chin chin. We will definitely come back and hope to see Aldo again soon. Thank you!“
“For friendly Fast Food this is a great spot. I highly recommend you try their orange chicken. I got Combo A half chow mein, half fried rice with Orange Chicken, all for just $8! They offer Thai Iced Tea also, which I'm going back tomorrow to try! :)“
“Solid dim sums close to UCLA! This is my first time seeing fried red oil wontons and they blew my mind! Each wonton comes with generous amount of shrimp in it and they're so juicy they squirted when I bit into them! The outside is thin and crispy, and the red ou drizzled on top is flavorful and aromatic. The chive dumplings are solid too. The soup dumplings however disappoint. Their skin is too thick and lack chewiness. Also it's a red flag that they come in tin foil cups. The service is ok and the ambiance is honestly bad because they're all outdoor seating right next to the roadside without any decoration. I think the items are slightly overpriced considering that they all come in plastic containers and disposable utensils and packet dressing.“
“It's a place you drive by and not even notice. But it's definitely a place you should stop at. The food, price and portions are great! I had sweet and sour chicken, rice, noodles, and orange chicken. It was so good and made probably 3 meals for me. Will be coming back. Thank you!“
“First time here and I have to say I didn't experience any bad customer service. Everyone was very nice and attentive. My friend ordered a refill on hot tea and we were so deep in conversation we didn't notice the server had already stealthily set it down on the table. The location is what it is but don't get it twisted this is no hole in the wall, it's a small restaurant with limited seating but your food is fresh, and HOT. Can't wait to go back. I got to read some reviews after and I can see if it's busy and they're short a person that service may not be top notch. I always go into a new dining experience with the approach that I'm going to rate it 5 stars unless they give me a reason not to. I hope my fellow yelpers are civilized enough to voice their concerns directly to the staff as they seem like the type of people who will make a wrong right.“
“Salmon Double Trouble - If you are a salmon lover, you will absolutely love this sushi roll! There is raw salmon on the top & baked salmon in the middle. Love it they add the jalapeno on top... just add a little kick. Rainbow Roll - How pretty the color is!! Rainbow roll is always my favorite.“
“Sad that this place is closing. Came this past week and immediately felt like I was back at happy family dinners eating jjajangmyeon and tangsuyuk. It was pretty crowded and everyone seemed to be in a good mood despite the impending closure. We ordered jjamppong, jjajangmyeon, and beef tangsuyuk. The tangsuyuk didn't disappoint and of course, the portions of our noodle dishes were huge. Real comfort food. Happy I got to come before they closed.“
“The Guobao Pork is delicious; the colorful pulled pork is also good, but a bit sweet; the barbecue tastes good, but a bit expensive! The store is not big, so you will most likely have to queue up; the food is served quite quickly; the two of them ate over 100“
“I was a tourist in LA with no phone or car and I stumbled into this place because it was in walking distance of my hotel. What an unbelievably lucky chance for me. The food here is delicious, and the drinks are awesome, but the people are truly what made me come back over the duration of my trip. Hiro and Nara (I hope I didn't butcher the names) and the ska-fan whose name I did not get - you're all superstars. This is 100% a place to visit if you're looking to have an absolutely awesome time.“
“Such great Chinese food! I'm glad they're open on Tuesdays now. I usually get pick up for Chicken Fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, or Shanghai noodles. The food is always perfect and delicious. Today though... I ordered SnS Chicken and when I went to pick it up they had told me they are no longer mixing the sauce in because it gets soggy. I love it soggy!! And it's not even soggy. Just a perfect sauce mix ratio. So who ever complained about it being soggy... you just ruined it!!! I'll order it next time and ask that the sauce is mixed in.“
“Vegetarian options: I really love this place it’s so amazing . I also love to eat noodles from this specific place . Owner is so nice and kind . Noodles and fried rice are so delicious. They have good vegetarian options too along with non vegetarian. That’s my favorite place for Chinese food . Love it ??“
“I was really sad when chengdu closed because I had been going there for years and loved it. I gave this spot a try a few months ago and while I do still miss it, at least this is still better than any other Chinese place I’ve found in the valley. Chengdu had a bigger menu, so while there are some things I can no longer get, this place does the basics well.“
