    Mala Fortune Dumplings
    Tiffany M.

    I've ordered for pick up quite a few times and it's good every time. Our go to is the pork chop with braised pork belly rice. I will say the size of the pork chop is inconsistent, but flavor is always good. The mala fortune dumplings were great and most of the combos are a pretty good deal. Probably one of the better options in the food court. Will definitely be back

    We were hungry after doing some window shopping at Brea Mall, so we decided to hit up the food court. Out of the many options, Bafang Dumpling caught our attention because we wanted some savory, but not too heavy, as we had dinner plan. After looking through their menu, their dumplings sounds the most promising. We couldn't decide on the fried potstickers or the dumpling, so we got both through their half-half combo. Steamed dumpling - solid dumpling with solid amount of fillings! The skin is moist and not too thick. Fried potstickers - crispy but not greasy at all!! I they were pretty similar to the dumpling but better because of the yummy crunch. I love that they have the garlic soy sauce beside the regular soy sauce! It was so good and went well with the dumplings/potstickers. Service was quick and nice! We got our food within 10 mins of ordering, which I was surprisingly fast for how busy they were. It's hard to judge the ambiance since they located in mall food court, but lots of seatings!

    We love Bafang Dumpling and were excited to see this location inside the Brea Mall food court. Food is made to order, so be prepared to wait for your food to be cooked. It does take about 10 minutes but the food always comes out piping hot and fresh. We always get their pork kimchi fried postickers with their hot and sour soup. They do run out of certain flavors by the end of the day so be there early!

    I was really indecisive when it came to what I wanted to order from here. It wasn't a huge selection, the combinations just didn't quite work for ME so I settled with the pork chop with braised pork belly rice, and a side of Signature potstickers. The rice was topped with pickled veggies and cucumbers. I said no to the pork belly and cucumbers, and instead added green onions. Perhaps I made it a little too basic, but I needed it to suit my taste because I wasn't in the mood to not like my order. The dumplings were delicious, and so was the rice. I added a bit of soy sauce and ate both without a problem. The pork chop was okay, but could stand to be a bit crispier. The flavor components were right where I expected. The cashier was very nice, and very patient. He took his time to make sure I would be happy with my food. This spot is in the food court, so of course it gave food court. Nothing disturbing stood out. Good job Bafang Dumpling!

    Box of one dozen signature potstickers

    Bafang is a much-welcomed addition to Brea Mall's food court to add more variety to the "same old same old" in all the malls. My favorite is their signature potstickers with golden brown pan-fried wrappings and yummy fillings. I also tried their signature dumplings which are also quite good, but I found the skin is a bit too thick. Combos are good values and include a fountain drink. If you like a little kick in the flavor, get their kimchi and pork potstickers. There are also veggie versions for vegetarians. Packages of frozen dumplings are also available for you to take home.

    Spicy Dumpling
    Glory A.

    Great food court meal. I ordered the Signature noodles with steamed spicy wonton. The noodle was very flavorful (reminds me of Dan Dan noodles), noodles were chewy and not overly cooked. The wonton was also good for frozen dumplings, nothing too crazy. The noodle is the star. The prices were so affordable!

    Soo oily! The food made me feel sick and not want to eat it as it was too oily! The beeper beeped but when I went to the counter, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes more for my food, mind you, they looked really empty. I don't mind waiting, but why beep when it wasn't ready?

    Potstickers
    Michelle ..

    Stopped by in the mall for a quick snack before a long wait for dinner and got the potstickers! Ordered at the counter and waited for my order with the buzzer provided. They have a self-serve sauce station with the staples, including my go-to garlic soy. The dumplings themselves came out hot, fresh to order. The filling was just how I remembered, juicy and flavorful. I just wished the pan fry was a bit more crispy, but overall a great choice.

    Kimchi pork dumplings, and kimchi pork potstickers - hit the spot
    Jessica G.

    Lunch at Bafang yeah it's a thang LOL sorry Idk why that came to my head. But I really love this restaurant they have delicious fast food dumplings. We got the kimchi pork dumplings and potstickers 12 each So good and so worth it, they have a lot of different items to choose from but we usually get the same. Today got a pepsi even though I like coke better lol the pepsi tasted good. Good ratio of ice and soda. The guy who took our order i didn't catch his name but very friendly and we got our order pretty quickly for how busy they were for a Saturday rush. Had to get the sauces ourselves this time. Which was ok :) love coming here for lunch even if it is mall food its really good and its always busy, plus they make everything fresh too. Recommend this place to try its at the mall in the food court next to Cinnabon. Can't wait to come back and enjoy some more delicious fried potstickers and dumplings. They also have really friendly service thank you so much for that. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha

    Although in a food court, it shines above the other restaurants for the quality of food and generous portions. Service was a little slow, although they needed to be sure the dumplings were done just right, so I'm not too concerned waiting a bit longer. There is really no special ambiance about a food court, but the location is nicely place in the center of the other food vendors which must say something about placement of the best restaurant.

    Chili Fried Chicken
    Krystina W.

    Been to a different Bafang before realizing there was one in the Brea Mall! That certainly is a treat for anyone craving some soup or dumplings at an affordable price. I *always* get the wonton soup. It's the perfect amount and has this really simple flavor that just warms the soul. I've also tried the signature noodles and the chili fried chicken(?) The signature noodles is also simple and pretty decent. Nothing overly special but still ok. It's a good deal as a combo and a really decent meal. I couldn't tell if the fried chicken was chicken or pork chops to be honest. (Didn't see any chili at all). But the taste reminded me of popcorn chicken. Not spicy though so not sure what I really got... lol Either way, I'll definitely come back if I'm in the area. The only thing I really wish they would change would be to offer their teas like their other location. Bummer it wasn't an option.

    Food is great as usual, but this is a legit 'mall food court' location, so I'm just reviewing because I wasn't expecting a mall food court experience. Menu is not the same as the restaurant menu, and no regular drink menu as well. Service was relatively quick with only 2 employees. Would go back if I find myself in Brea mall again, but wouldn't go for regular meals.

    The staff are friendly staff! And considering it's at the food court the service was still fast. The food was a bit oily for me

    Beef noodle soup.  Way too salty!!!

I legit am on my third day (in a row..don't judge me) of stopping by to order the pineapple Alice. I love me some pineapple & coconut any day, so this drink was a winning combo for me. In a nutshell, it's Greek yogurt blended with fresh pineapple, and topped with their house-made coconut whip. First time I got 50% sweetness level, which is good, but being a fruity smoothie, I would have preferred it a lil sweeter, thus 2nd & 3rd time around, I learned my lesson and got 80%..and it was perfect! Trust..it wasn't overly sweet at all. It was dreamy heaven. I happened to be in the area, getting a tattoo and wanted to refuel before I trekked the trafficky drive home to Irvine (UGH..at 2:30 pm on a Wednesday, no less). Super thankful, I discovered this new looking Brea location (on State College Blvd ~ right near the freeway entrance) and it didn't have a crazy wait/line. The store was clean, w/ minimalistic neutral decor..loved the chill aesthetic vibe. The cute wooden pillars as you enter was interesting, but caught me a bit off-guard, as it was right in front of the pick-up area. You have to explore further inside the store to the order line. Service was great and efficient. OMOMO is highly recommended by this RxFoodie (and my 2nd fav boba shoppe in OC still), so def go check it out and become addicted like ME!

They lack providing better descriptions of drinks for new customers and the options are boring. There were zero pastries or food options to pair with your drink. It was only a small drink menu. The customer service was good! The young lady at the counter was very kind and did her best to explain different sweetness and bitterness levels but she couldn't really describe the drinks and recommend anything based on comparisons with what is more popular. As for ambiance it was empty and had no customers. There were no tables to sit and enjoy your drink. So I think people prefer to go to other boba shops that offer at least a small seating area with a table. That was disappointing to see when I walked in. As for flavor... my drink tasted powdery and warm. The boba pearls were a bit stale. I wont be coming back. There are plenty of other boba locations that offer much higher quality drinks and the price point is exactly the same. Overall I'll give a 2/5 star for cleanliness and because the customer service was good.

It was a Saturday evening about an hour before they closed. When I walked in there was a couple in front of me and it appeared they had issues ordering from the kiosk. The one worker who was there that night came out with the most unfriendly face and vibe. Even though she wasn't serving me yet she even made me feel uncomfortable and that's hard to do. Lmao. After we all ordered our drinks, we could not help but talk about how grumpy she looked. I gave the benefit of the doubt knowing it sucks to work alone on a Saturday or maybe she's tired but the strangers i was talking with said everytime they come here she's always unfriendly. The one star reviews on here confirm that. I kid you not I was looking for the manager to share this concern with because it was that bad. There was no one else in sight. I didn't feel like confronting anyone that night, but if they read their yelp reviews please consider providing customer service training to your employees. With so many boba shops opened now in brea including the 3-4 spots in brea mall alone, good drinks and good service will keep your business alive. 2 stars for my pineapple Green tea. It was decent but the ice level sucked. Very little ice was given and the ice they used melted super fast.

I had ordered a milk tea and their Thai tea and was super disappointed with the flavor it was complete milk unfortunately and no sweeteners despite us having the 100% sweetener option. The drinks came out very far from each other time wise as well which isn't a super big issue but it's noticeable and could be an issue for bigger orders. Super busy somehow so we didn't want to burden the worker while the store had a rush. Other than that the place gave me a very pretentious vibe. I'm all for starting a business you're passionate about but it's hard to see what's different about THIS cafe in a world full of other businesses claiming to be different that's serving the same items (matcha specifically). Not to say that there's not bad matcha or coffee out there, there is. Seems like the type of cafe people go to take a picture of their drinks and pretend like they're connoisseurs and pretend that it's "different" than whatever else is out there and sit and pretend to study on their laptop (even though it's the loudest and crowded place in the world in there). Seeing that the place opened recently, it's very hard to believe this isn't some type of money grab for a younger audience to serve trendy drinks. Or at the very least, a very expensive passion project for the owner. Overall just more focused on aesthetics more than anything.
