Wife and I had friends over and they picked up dinner at China Spice. The last time I ate there was…read morewhen they were still located at their old address which was a number of years ago. It's difficult to identify which meal matches what order so I will not say the name of each item. At first sight, the food did not look pleasant as they are swimming in oil and/or sauce.. so much that it was spilling out of the lids. It is also interesting that we had to guess which meal belongs to whom since the appearance did not match the menu discriptions. Each meal also came with a very small container of rice so we had to cooked more rice at home to finish the meal. However, things got better after we finally digged into the meal. The food were quite tasteful and had a unique flavor that is obviously from a blend of spices from various cultures. Is it good enough for us to go out of our way to eat there again? No But it is good enough that we will eat there again if by chance.

I tried their drunken noodles with chicken and the thai curry with chicken. Both are delicious. The person who took our order was helpful and answered our questions. I never got a chance to sit down at eat there because both times I took my order to go. The restaurant very cute and clean. Since it is a small restaurant, my order usually does take some time to make. If you plan to order take out here just have a little patience for them to cook your yummy food.

It's a nice cozy spot, interior not to big (can sit five groups of two.) ordering is simple, at the front but the wait time is a bit long (seems like mostly for deliveries) The food was ok, the basil rice didn't have much of the basil flavor but it hit the spot, the drunken noodles was a bit overly salted.

This is a review for delivery we ordered off Seamless. We got the Original Jianbing ($5.99) and the…read moreCumin Lamb Combo with shredded potato and soybean milk ($11.99). My Chinese boyfriend really enjoyed the cumin lamb burger and the shredded potato--he was very surprised when I told him it came from the 99 Ranch food court! This was my second time getting the jianbing. I was disappointed to see its small size (the first time I ordered it, it was at least 30-50% larger for the same price and I ate it over two meals), but I understand that inflation has really raised costs. I thought it was super tasty (though as a qualifier, I'm Korean and have never had jianbing from anywhere else, so I have no idea whether it's authentic/how it stacks up to other jianbing). Overall, even with the reduced sizes, we really enjoyed this meal. We were both full after eating our respective dishes and the quality was great for the price and for the fact that it came from a grocery food court.

They were pretty busy but we're not too surprised. I started with a Thai iced tea--it was delish! Then for entrees we had ordered beef cube a pork chop and rice. Our order was made fairly quickly and was so fresh! We enjoyed our meal. Service was fast and they're able to get customers in and out fairly quickly. Def worth a visit for some good Vietnamese food.

A Decade of Love on a Plate: A Local Favorite That Punches Above Its Weight…read more This place is the definition of a neighborhood gem--the kind you almost want to keep secret, yet can't stop yourself from praising. Cheap and cheerful on the surface, it punches way above its weight class, delivering inventive, clean, Asian-inspired food that's masterfully cooked by clearly skilled hands--and made with real love. I've been coming back year after year for most of this restaurant's 10-year lifespan, and that consistency is no accident. Every dish tastes intentional, thoughtful, and deeply satisfying, with a clear goal: to feed people love on a plate. It's a super veggie/vegan friendly that easily wins over even my "meat and potatoes" husband--who happily cleans his plate every time. In an era where genuine hospitality feels increasingly rare, Perry single-handedly restored my faith that quality service is not extinct. Warm, attentive, and authentically kind, Perry makes every guest feel seen, welcome, and cared for--without pretense or attitude. This is food that nourishes, service that uplifts, and a place that keeps you coming back not just for the flavors, but for how it makes you feel. A true neighborhood treasure.

Mediocre food and very slow service!…read more This place was a disappointment for what I hoped from a highly rated ramen place in the area. The service was quite slow, almost waited 1 hour for entrees to be brought to the table. It's a small place with limited staff working everything. The food was fairly basic. The fried rice seemed to be bland and below par despite ordering the spicy version. My friend who ordered the ramen liked the soup but the meat was not fully cooked and felt chewy.

Stuffed calamari ($25) - there were literally 3 in the dish. 3. I ate one and you're seeing everything else we got. Beef rendang ($24) - 4 pieces of beef. Not wagyu... Pork w spring rolls on vermicelli ($24) - reasonable enough portion but very overcooked. Should be a staple of any Viet spot so idk what they're doing here Would call them right now but they close at 9.... on a Saturday.... I will update this review if I'm able to reach them during biz hours for a resolution but this is easily the most disappointing meal I've had all year. Save your hard earned money and go to Ela's greek or literally anywhere else on this block, even Dominos. EDIT: Went in next day and spoke to a manager, only mentioned portion size and showed the picture, didn't get a chance to say anything about everything being overcooked. He had clearly heard these complaints about portion size before, because he immediately launched into saying the cut of beef + tendon they use for the rendang yields that as their standard portion size. He refunded the calamari. I still won't be going back and would never recommend this place, but wanted to acknowledge the resolution. Also my husband unfortunately wasn't there to speak to them, but he's been in restaurants for 25 years and knows they served chuck, not a fancy cut...

Prince & I feels less like a restaurant and more like being invited into someone's home for dinner…read more-- in the best way possible. From the moment we walked in, the owner personally seated us and ended up cooking our food himself. He has a quirky, memorable personality that adds to the charm of the whole experience. It's the kind of place where you can tell the food is made with intention rather than being rushed out of a big commercial kitchen. The dishes were packed with flavor and tasted very authentic. You can really tell the ingredients and spices are balanced the way Thai food should be -- bold, savory, a little spicy, and deeply satisfying. Everything we ordered had great texture and presentation as well. Overall, it was a unique dining experience with authentic flavors and a memorable host. If you're looking for a polished corporate restaurant this isn't it -- but if you want something personal, quirky, and genuinely delicious, Prince & I is absolutely worth visiting. Would definitely come back!!
