    A friend wanted to try this place and I wasn't sure what to expect. It's a fast food noodle/dumpling shop. Taste is alright and the portions are a bit small.

    Located on the second floor near the JCPenney in the Santa Anita Mall. I finally went and tried the Bafang Dumpling. It wasn't too busy when I went, so there was plenty of seating. I got the Combo 1 which had the 12 Signature Potstickers and a small bowl of Hot & Sour Soup. For me, it was a two person meal since the potstickers are filling. It was good, but not the hype that I heard about. The service could be better. When the order is ready, the pager lights up, but the person is not there to greet you or anything. If you see the plate of food, it's must likely yours. I wonder if it's different if it's busier in-store.

    This Bafang Dumpling is sooo much better than the one in Temple City! The food quality is good, the service is quick, the restaurant is clean and spacious, and there's more parking (obviously) because it's at the mall. This Arcadia location also offers a $10 special of pork chop and braised pork belly rice with a soda that's not available at other locations. I tried it, and it's really good. I'd definitely order this or the signature potstickers, which are always a solid choice. Overall, I'd say come to this location if you want comfort food and a better dining experience.

    For Combo 1 that comes with 12 Signature Potstickers and choice of Hot & Sour Soup or Corn Chowder Soup for $13.75, it's a such a reasonably priced meal! The staff are friendly, however customer service could be improved because they messed up my friend's order. She ordered Combo 5 that was supposed to come with 12 Signature Dumplings and they gave her Potstickers instead lol. Kind of dumb of the staff to mess up an order that easily, as they weren't busy at all when we ordered before the dinner rush on a Friday. Soups (Hot & Sour and Corn Chowder) were yum! If you like moderately spicy flavored soup, I would recommend the Hot & Sour. For mellow, non-spicy soup go with the Corn Chowder. Can't go wrong with either soup, just a matter of spiciness preference. Their Potstickers were standard for the price, just not above average quality. Their Iced Lemon Black Tea (while more on the sweeter side) is a refreshing contrast to the savory food here. I think the City Of Industry location is better than this one in The Shops at Santa Anita mall.

    The staff were very nice and attentive. It's more of a self-serve dumpling fast food joint if I have to categorize it. Pretty well priced comfort food in Arcadia. With the inflation, very hard to find a meal for less than 15 dollars. Got the signature potsticker, 12 pieces, for about 14 dollars with tax. The potstickers were a little bit on the oily side but the taste was good. It's good for a filling lunch. Parking is usually very packed for the mall. Make travel plans accordingly ~

    Nice casual Taiwanese food spot at the mall. Came grabbed a quick bite here while waiting for a Lego event at the mall. We ordered signature potstickers and pork chop with braised pork belly rice. The signature potstickers is a family favorite. The wrapper is tender with a crispy bottom. The filling is seasoned just right. I's a bit disappointed with the pork chop - it has some sinew so it's hard to chew. The rice is mushy to me and not the best quality. Although the flavor is good and it's nice they cute the pork chop in 3 pieces. At the price point, can't really complain too much and compare it to din tai Fung. It's a quick casual place to get filled up and move on. The cashier is nice and friendly.

    Ordered the pork chop with braised pork belly rice. It came with a soda for only $10. What a deal! Very delicious meal for an affordable price. We also got the signature potstickers which had perfect crispy sides. Thoroughly enjoyed this meal and appreciate the convenience of this location being at the Arcadia mall.

    It's kinda different from the original bafang dumpling in Taiwan. The bafangin Taiwan more like neighborhood dumpling restaurants, the bafang in the US kinda like dumpling fast food restaurant. We order beef noodle, combo 3 (dumplings + fried dumplings) and pork chops. ALL GOOD! Beef noodle is $17 and worth the price. Dumplings you can tell they are handmade and fresh. The pork chops were tender. Only thing I don't like is they use too much disposable tableware even for dining in customers, not eco friendly!

    Good quality fast Taiwanese food located in the Santa Anita Mall. Bafang is located near JC Penney's on the second floor. It's brightly lit and has plenty of casual seat-yourself seating. Order at the counter, give you a buzzer, pick your food up when buzzed, eat, and bus your own table. Condiments located near the water and utensils. Signature items are the Pork Chop, Potstickers, Won Ton, Spicy and Beef Noodles Soup. The latter had a choice of Original and Spicier Mala. We opted for the Wonton Soup, Potstickers, Original Beef Noodle Soup, and Spicy Mala Dry Noodles. All were good and if you were to order only one thing...get the Potstickers. Decent Taiwanese food in a mall setting. A little pricey compared to external Taiwanese Restaurants but you save on tip as it's all self-serve.

    The reviews aren't great but this place is pretty solid for cafeteria vibe quick service. We ordered the $10 pork chop rice with soda special, and spicy wontons. The pork was smothered in the minced pork sauce so lost all and any crispiness but it was tender and juicy! Served with a plethora of pickled veggies! I almost felt like there wasn't enough rice to toppings ratio! Spicy Wontons were delicious, but a bit gooey today. I'm guessing it's from the over starchy water they use to boil the dumplings. Soda fountain is self service, they also have a mini condiments bar. Would go back to try their other menu items!

    Another fast food restaurant to pick from at the Santa Anita Mall. However, Bafang Dumpling isn't in the food court, it it tucked on the 2nd floor near JC Penny. If you take the escalator up near Shibulaya it is on the right once you're on the second level. My husband and I went on grand opening week, where they offered different specials. We got a bag because we spent a certain amount. The service was very quick, we were able to order our food without waiting more than five minutes. I tried the Bafang Signature potstickers (pan friend) and my husband got the Taiwanese beef noodle soup. Food: Potstickers- amazing, crispy and not too oily. I didn't even need to use any dipping sauce since it was so flavorful. Noodle soup: large portion size but my husband has had better, but for a fast food quality you can't beat it. Whenever I am craving for potstickers I will come here in the future!

    It took a few extra minutes to find it located on the 2nd level near the JC Penny and H&M. Service was quick to order and you just wait for your food while you seat yourself. The soups came out piping hot and delicious. Although they seemed to be known for their dumplings, both my fellow diner and myself agreed that their soups were better. We had the potstickers which were generous in portion but not as tasty as we were hoping. They had just a little too much cabbage for us. There were plenty of tables to seat families and most of them were taken but we took ours to-go. Felt like a casual vibe here but maybe a good spot to grab a hot soup for take out.

    Had this in temple city and liked it a lot. This one just opened up in Arcadia in the mall. Pretty much the same, same flavoring and same menu. This location is much more spacious than the temple city one. You order in the front w someone and they will give you those buzzers when the food is ready, it'll buzz. It was pretty busy when we went. We ordered 2 combos and both tastes just like I thought it would. Potstickers were filled w meats and done perfectly. The condiments and utensils are by the counter. This spot is more of a grab and go or sit down for a quick bite type of spot.

You definitely can taste the rich tea fragrance notes in each of their drinks. So far, I've tried their One Tea Signature blend milk tea and their Orchis oolong tea with coconut cloud. I also especially love their popping barley topping. It's a unique spin to the traditional boba. It's refreshing a fun to eat. We also got their walnut custard cake, which was a nice treat. They are slightly crispy on the outside, yet pleasantly moist on the inside. The custard inside added just the right about of sweetness. To finish each mini cake off, each contain bits of actual walnuts on the inside, which really made this dessert well worth it. The only reason I am knocking off a star is because of their staff. They were not very friendly or communicative. The majority of the time, they really tried to avoid making eye contact with the customers. This makes the experience feel awkward and unwelcoming.

I then asked if I could simply add boba and pay the extra charge, but I was told that wasn't possible either. What disappointed me the most was the lack of customer service and empathy. For a shop that charges premium prices for its drinks, I expected a much better customer experience. The barista's tone came across as dismissive and irritated, which made the interaction even more unpleasant. I still enjoy Chi Cha San Chen as a brand, but this visit was disappointing enough that I definitely won't be before returning to this location.

Our go-to are the mango mango slush or strawberry slush half sweet no chamoy, royal milk tea with boba, and Peach green tea half sweet. Drinks are ALWAYS consistant and yummy. Even more, the boba is consistantly divine-- fresh, chewy, and sweet. Drinks come out quick even when it's busy. I'm always amazed how many drinks they can pump out quickly. The staff here are boba masters. Prices here are competitive/standard. Expect about $5/drink. They also have a stampcard program! Buy 8 and get 1 free. We frequent Hello Boba because it's nearby and good. Even if there's more unique places like half and half, 3 cats, and twinkle brown sugar. I prefer Hello Boba. They're just really good, consistant, and quick. Always hits the spot. Staff are generally friendly and greet you with a smile. There's this one swole asian dude who's that has a rbf. I don't think it's personal though, he's probably always sore from hitting the gym. I almost never get a smile from him-- it's just business. He shows his love in a through his consistant drinks.
