“Their green tea drink is very refreshing when ordered just slightly sweet I like their shaved ice but just wish their fruits were a bit sweeter or more ripe. But overall, this is a good dessert place that is super close to my parents house so will frequent more often.“
“MASTER CLASS ! My wife and I have enjoyed delicious meals at Din Tai Fung restaurants more than a few times. We love the very courteous servers who take our food order, the synchronized delivery of each item by food runners and the excellent taste of our food visit after visit. VERY IMPRESSIVE ! After a fabulous first time lunch experience here a couple of weeks ago we had to come back. This time we were hoping not to wait so long for a table ( reservations are booked out weeks in advance ) so we arrived at South Coast Plaza before 10.45am. A few minutes later we put our names down for a table with a hostess at the front entrance...it was going to be up to an hour and a half. PERFECT TIMNG ! We headed straight to Bloomingdale's to buy a new bed. At around midday my wife received a text that our table would be available in a few minutes so we came back here. EXCELLENT SERVICE ! We were ushered inside by a hostess just after midday. A manager named Alfredo ( who remembered us from our previous visit ) gave us a warm welcome and showed us to a table near the full bar. We told Alfredo we wanted to be in the area serviced by Khua the amazing server on our first visit. FIRST UP ! I said hi to Bane behind the bar who remembered me with a big smile. I asked for a beer...a Belgian Blue Moon. MEANWHILE ! Back at our table Khua our talented server was ready to help us order....we wanted to try a few new items on the menu with Khua's advice. AND WE DID ! My ice cold glass of Blue Moon arrived courtesy of Bane the bartender. LUNCH ORDER ! We ordered 1 x SHRIMP & KUROBUTA PORK DUMPLINGS, 1 x BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC, 1 x KIMCHI & KUROBUTA PORK DUMPLINGS, 1 x SHANGHAI RICE CAKES WITH SHREDDED KUROBUTA PARK, 1 x NOODLES WITH SESAME SAUCE and 1 x SHRIMP & KUROBUTA PORK SHAO MAI. Khua kindly offered to mix our dipping sauce for us...thank you. Meanwhile my ice cold Blue Moon beer tasted very refreshing. The restaurant was totally packed out with a long line outside waiting to get in. Our lunch order of 6 different dishes arrived at our table courtesy of smiling food runners incl lovely trainee manager Devery...amazingly we had it all within 10 minutes. We shared virtually everything except the Kimchi & Kurobuta Pork Dumplings ( something new ).....a little too spicy for my wife. The Broccoli with Garlic ( something new ) tasted good but we like the Green Beans with Garlic better. Of course our favs....Shrimp & Kurobuta Pork Dumplings and Rice Noodles with Sesame Sauce tasted as good as ever. The Shanghai Rice Cakes with Shredded Kurobuta Pork ( something new ) tasted very good..we had this dish with shrimp on our first visit. Lastly the Shrimp & Kurobuta Pork Shao Mai ( something new ) was a little on the bland side. Khua expertly boxed up what we didn't eat to take home. On the way out we ran into Harrison the friendly GM...we had a lovely chat for a few minutes. Of course we gave our meals, this impressive restaurant and our server Khua big kudos. MUST BE NUMBER ONE IN CALIFORNIA !“
“Everything about the tea here is super high quality. I got a hot oolong tea which came in a really nice cup with a fancy lid that you can re-seal.The flavor of the tea was amazing and each sip was really flavorful.The machine they use to make this tea must be patented or at least really high end. One of the best teas I've had.“
“I met my friend here for lunch as it is one of his go-to places for Tawainese/Chinese homestyle food. He ordered us a good amount of things to try - including the Three Cups Chicken, Stinky Tofu, pork spare ribs, Tawainese sausage and buns, and veggies. We had plenty to eat and everything was delicious. I don't think you can go wrong with the food here.“
“Holy cow. This place has the most amazing food. We ordered the soup dumplings and ended up getting a second order because they were so delicious. My kids couldn’t get enough of the short rib Dan noodle. It was all so fresh, well prepared, and the service was top notch. Every person who helped us was incredibly friendly and kind. We already plan on coming back tomorrow!“
“Comfort food!! Delicious variety of soups and garlic noodles! The garlic noodles were packed with flavor and the green sauce that came with it was AMAZING! I like my soup hot so it was nice to have it boiling and you’re able to request it to turn off at anytime. I also love the dipping sauces. Service was AMAZING! Everyone was so friendly and we even got some milk tea at the end of our meal??“
“A small local business offering Taiwanese food. The interior is older and aged. The parking directly in front can be a problem but there is more parking offered further down into the shopping center.The staff is nice and friendly. We’ve been going here for years and I feel like perhaps they have a new chef because all the flavors seemed off in some way.The menu has a lot to offer so you are sure to find something you like.“
“Legit Taiwanese food! Had the Chinese sausage appetizer (served with slices of raw garlic - YUM), shrimp omelette (with the perfect gooey consistency), braised pork belly rice, and Taiwanese sausage fried rice “ketchup style”. 2 of our dishes also came with soup, and those were yummy as well. I haven’t had a lot of these foods since being in Taiwan years ago, and these definitely satisfied the craving. Will be back to try the Teppan sizzling steak!“
“Easy ordering online or by a phone call. Quick pick up process, convenient parking space. But the food is the primary reason for me to go back to this joint. They have the best popcorn chicken in Cerritos. Of course their ground beef meal and pork belly stew meal are superb as well.“
“Cha for tea is usually a 5 star restaurant, with amazing popcorn chicken and tasteful sauce. This visit, the chicken was not crispy as per usual and the sauce was less flavorful. A worker with a pink sweater and brown hair was a great server w/ a happy attitude. Overall disappointed with the quality of the chicken, but I will continue to come here as I have been over the past 4 years.“
“Stopped by while waiting for the Broth, since there were 134 parties ahead of us.This location was new for me. You can skip the line by order on the apps or by the kiosk.We got the fresh herbal milk tea with herbal jelly and eggs waffle. Love it“
“This is the only location that still serves shaved snow so this is the only class302 that we go to. My daughter got the summer field which was great. Personally I think their mango snow tastes better. Spicy beef noodle soup was pretty good too.“
“Really enjoyed this place. I wanted one of everything all at the same time. I opted for the Sirloin steak on a hot sizzling lava stone, so it never ever got cold. It's a little more fatty than I like, but it's still really good.“
