    Hidden in a quiet shopping plaza, this restaurant is widely regarded as one of the best Chinese dining destinations in Orange County and Los Angeles. Its Peking Duck is beautifully prepared and served with traditional accompaniments. The refined atmosphere, attentive service, and multilingual staff fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese, and English enhance the experience.

    Establishment is spacious, clean, and well lit. Staff is professional and attentive. Restaurant is well decorated with Chinese antiques. Food has great presentation, with excellent flavor. I would recommend this restaurant for the experience, as the price is definitely fairly high. TLDR: Excellent service, excellent food, excellent establishment, fair value. Would recommend!

    Absolutely loved this place. We came for the Peking duck and it did not disappoint. The tableside flaming presentation was such a fun touch. The duck skin was thin, delicate, and perfectly crispy, while the meat was tender and juicy. Rolling it in the crepes with the condiments was perfection. They recommended pairing the crispy skin with brown sugar and it was honestly so good. The smoked duck was insanely good on its own. Everything else we tried was great too. The okra dish was really tasty and beautifully plated. The wonton soup was light and delicate, and the golden fish soup was straight fire. The Szechuan beef tasted very authentic with the right amount of heat, and the crispy shrimp was a standout. We ended with dessert and it was worth the wait of 30 mins.The peppercorn ice cream was unique and delicious, and the red bean cake (which takes about 30 minutes) was excellent. We loved all the desserts and every entrée we ordered. Definitely a place we'd come back to.

    今天來介紹今年吃的最貴的一餐, 好友小孩百日宴,辦在Tustin 的品味長安,這家光裝潢就花了幾百萬的餐廳, 第一次吃到他們家那麼多的菜色,烤鴨,是沒話說的,來這麼多次,烤鴨一直都很有水準,我很喜歡,這次還有帝王蟹兩吃, 甲魚, 多寶魚,海蔘,牛舌,安格斯牛排, 鮑魚控肉..... 有機會吃到那麼多大菜,對他家的菜色跟以往過來的經驗不同, 跟會點菜的人來, 果然就是不一樣,這餐最貴的應該是朋友帶來的紅酒, 不懂也不喝酒的我,知道朋友的紅酒收藏非常豐富,很多也價值不菲,淺嚐幾口,真的就是跟一般的紅酒不一樣, 照片有點多,大家慢慢欣賞~

    Ambiance is beautiful seating area and their private rooms are very nice for you to bring guests you want to impress . The service staff is especially attentive and friendly like the led badges that they wear , bold and in your face . Food served in such a setting will taste better for sure . Strip away the fancy decor and black uniformed staff, and the theatrics of table side duck carvings , the food would be like anything you could get in a Chinatown in Monterey Park . If eating is a total experience for you then this place is satisfied the hype . You but you may gripe if awesome tasting food is your type .

    Had a great experience at Taste of Chang'an in Tustin! Nice ambiance! The service was excellent and the food was delicious. My favorite dish was definitely the Peking duck -- so flavorful and perfectly done. Highly recommend! Tustin 的品味长安体验很好!低调的奢华设计~服务很不错,食物也很好吃。最喜欢他们家的烤鸭,味道特别棒!很推荐!

    One of the best Peking Duck destinations on SoCal for sure. Service here is always great and all the dishes they recommended tasted 10/10. Of courses we were there for the main attraction. Peking Duck!!

    This was a very fancy and different experience. The service was fast and the waiter gave good recommendations and answered any questions I had. I came here for a birthday dinner and was very satisfied with my experience. The table-side duck you have to call ahead to have and it was delectable. The crispy skin was crunchy and dipped in the sugar was perfect. The duck was tender and went well with all the toppings. The noodles were chewy and were not too spicy. The tea was in this beautiful pot and had unlimited refills. The only downside is that this place was very pricy, but good for special occasions/date nights.

    Crispy duck skin with brown sugar
    Han N.

    Had came here to celebrate my birthday and what an experience! The ambiance was very modern and had an upscale feel. The service was great and everyone was very welcoming. The table side duck was impressive and our party enjoyed it a lot. The presentation of the food was beautiful and everything tasted great and flavorful. Best part was definitely the crispy duck skin with the brown sugar. The table side duck is reservation only so be sure to call ahead. On top of that the leftover duck can be made in a soup for extra charge or another dish I forget. We did add the soup and it was good as well. The staff was so nice, instead of dessert for birthdays, they gave me a complimentary bowl of noodle that signifies longevity in their culture. I was definitely surprised and very thankful. It was a very nice dining experience!

    The service here was incredible. People here are so nice. The decor is fancy and I love the ambiance. It's classy and they have custom made chopstick rests that I love. Roast duck: 9/10. But 10/10 for the experience of them setting the duck on fire. They set it on fire before taking it back to carve it into separate ways to experience it - one with the duck skin, one with the duck meat, and another optional added cost for soup. Lotus root: 8/10. Fun experience since they use carbon to give off a foggy effect. Short rib: 8/10. Very flavorful and tender. I love the presentation of having it with the giant bone. Braised short rib with quail eggs: 7/10. Succulent but maybe a bit too fatty. Spring pea shoots: 7/10. Good and necessary but a bit too oily and portion was small. Soup with shrimp dumplings: 6/10. Nothing standout. Some people in our group didn't like it. Noodles: 7/10. Good but small portion. Flavor is okay. Dessert soup tang yuan: 7/10. Small and pricey but still good. Overall, everything was good but with the prices, I admit it's hard to come back here. Still, the experience was excellent.

    Guokui pita
    Matthew Liu

    Chang'an opened up around the end of the COVID era, and I've been coming here on and off for a few years. One thing I really enjoy about this place is the unique architecture, which is beautiful and elegant while still fitting the contemporary feel of the restaurant. The food quality is always top-notch and the service has consistently been excellent. This restaurant is my go-to spot for authentic high-end Shaanxi cuisine. I came this time with my family for lunch, and the space was fairly empty at this hour so we were seated quickly. Menus were brought over along with a complimentary plate of guokui pita, which is always a nice touch. Every dish we ordered was cooked perfectly and tasted just as great as I remembered. I especially recommend the crispy pork ribs, the pork belly sliders, and the lamb stew with pita, which are all regional specialties you don't see often. Their duck specialty is also amazing, but you need to reserve it in advance. It is carved and served table-side, which adds to the experience. If I had to point out one drawback, it would be the size of the tables. The plates here are quite large, and the small round tables can only comfortably fit about three dishes at once. As a result, you either have to eat fairly quickly or constantly move plates around to make space. But this isn't an issue at their larger rectangular tables. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for truly authentic and upscale Chinese cuisine. You will not find your typical orange chicken here. Overall, it's an excellent restaurant, though it is on the pricier side. Everything is served family-style, and you should be prepared to spend around 100-150 dollars per person.

    It was our first time at Chang'An, and we're officially in love. We ordered the Duck with the Fire Show, and it was incredible. The meat was tender, full of flavor, and the presentation was so fun to watch. My little boys couldn't get enough of the Peking Duck and were so sad we could only order one per table. The crispy duck skin with a little sugar was such a treat. We also ordered the crispy beef tongue, and it was surprisingly delicious. It was nice watching my boys enjoy such a delicacy, lol. The vibe is beautiful and classy, and the service was amazing. We didn't even tell them it was my husband's birthday because he likes to keep things low-key, but they surprised us with longevity noodles anyway. It was such a sweet and thoughtful touch that really made our night. Honestly, this place feels like an elevated Chinese dining experience right in the heart of Orange County. We can't wait to come back.

    Charcoal tofu. Very flavorful and striking dish.

Even though it was 6:15 on a Saturday night, we were able to be sat right away. As soon as we walked in, someone greeted us and showed us to our table. Our server immediately got us waters and asked if we wanted anything else to drink (wife and I both got some delicious beers that they had on tap). We had our little one in tow with us and they were so accommodating to him! As soon as we were ready, our server took our order. We got: Chowder "frots" (fries and tots mixed in with some New England clam chowder, bacon, onions, cheese, and other goodies) 10/10, would definitely order again. My wife got the lobster roll with a side of clam chowder. Loaded with lobster, but you do pay the price. Labeled as market price, this was almost $40. Delicious, but not worth it in our opinion. 6.5/10. Pan roast (house specialty which came with shredded crab, shrimp, clams, and muscles). This, topped with rice, was heavenly. Better than any pan roast I've had. Came out ripping hot as it should. My wife was envious of my dish. 10/10 From the kids menu we also ordered the chicken Alfredo. My kid loved it, but my wife and I both had a bite and wow, we would've ordered that for ourselves it was so good. 10/10. We can't wait to come back just for the food. On top of that, however, service was above and beyond. The servers and everyone in the restaurant were so accommodating to us and our child and made us feel so, so welcome. We would come back even if the food was bad, solely for the service we received. Vibes we great, decoration on the walls look like they hired an artist to paint it. They had two TV's behind the bar / prep area that was showing NBA and PGA which I'll never complain about. All around 10/10 experience.

Something I also noticed was that plates kept piling up on other tables and waiters weren't really going around to clean up or keep count, so table space becomes limited. The environment is EXTREMELY loud with sounds from the kitchen since there's no barrier between kitchen to dining area so keep that in mind. The food is basically Kura Sushi but they don't offer miso soup on the menu, and we decided to come about 3 hours before closing and at least 20% of the menu wasn't being offered. Good choices on the menu though were the Ultimate Salmon roll and the seared salmon nigiri. Respectfully, your dollar is better spent at any other competing revolving sushi bar in the area.

The salmon ceviche was really good but a bit heavy on the sauce for me. The clam chowder had whole clams in the shell throughout. That was fun to pick them out! For entrees we got the lean and mean plate with sea bass. It comes with salad and rice, we substituted the rice for black beans. We also got the skirt steak "bulgogi" which was served on top of mushrooms and bok choy with a sweet soy sauce. They accidentally brought out salmon instead of sea bass, but were very apologetic. They brought out a sea bass on the side and comped the entree to make up for it. Great service right there! The salmon and seabass were both delicious and cooked perfectly. The steak was tender and juicy, full of flavor. As a birthday gift they brought out a thai milk tea blondie sundae which was soooo good! Get it if you like sweets.
