We ordered the Big plate chicken to share, and let me tell you, it was phenomenal! The dish is a spicy chicken stew made with Sichuan peppercorns, cumin, and chili paste, and comes with handpulled noodles. It was my first time trying this type of Chinese-Uyghur crossover dish, and it definitely surpassed my expectations. The portion was incredibly generous as well, as the dish was more than enough for the two of us plus leftovers. All in all, our night out at Ma's Kitchen was a success! ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it.

I came here the other day with my partner, and this is by far the best Boston Lobster location I've…read moretried. Personally, I think it's much better than the Rosemead one. I've had a few experiences at Rosemead where the food didn't seem fresh (like the clams), so I was hesitant to try this location, but I'm glad I did. Overall, the food here was very good. The only dish that didn't stand out was the beef fried rice, which wasn't as good as I've had elsewhere. Everything else was solid. We ordered the Kung Pao chicken, which had nice crispy chicken, and the mapo tofu, which was very tasty, though not spicy at all, so definitely ask for extra spice if you prefer heat. Service, however, wasn't great. We went around 3 PM, and it was pretty slow...just us and a couple of other families, but it still took a long time for them to take our order, which was surprising. I'd come back for the food quality since it was decent, but the service could definitely improve. I'd give it a 4 out of 5. I didn't try the seafood this time, so I can't compare it directly to the Rosemead location in that regard.

We visited at 5 pm on a Saturday, and there was no wait thankfully. For dinner, we ordered the…read morehouse assorted seafood soup, shrimp with walnuts, fish fillet with salt and pepper, and beef with Chinese broccoli. By 6:30 pm, it got full inside the restaurant, so you'd get a better chance at finding a table immediately if planning to eat an early dinner. By then, it was a little loud too. We sat in a booth, so we needed to sort dishes around instead of using a rotating tray. The best dish was the shrimp with walnuts. Interestingly, it tasted a little more tangy than the other versions of this dish that I've tried before. The fish fillet with salt and pepper tasted decent. Even with a light peppery flavor, I didn't have any issues with it lacking seasoning. The beef with Chinese broccoli was good too with soft slices of meat. Lastly, I thought the house assorted seafood soup had a good broth, but my family liked the contents more than me.

Tried King Baozi Bistro and it definitely lives up to the hype. The bao buns were soft, fluffy, and…read morepacked with flavor--especially the pork ones. Everything tasted fresh, and you can tell they actually care about quality. The dumplings were juicy and didn't fall apart, which is always a win. Service was quick and friendly, even during a busy time, and the place had a nice casual vibe. Prices were pretty reasonable for the portion sizes too. Only downside was it got a bit crowded, so seating can be tight--but honestly, that just shows how popular it is. Would 100% come back

And because these are made on the street, it really gives off that strong street food vibe. The crepe comes with 3 eggs, a hotdog, crackers, chili sauce, mung beans, and more. Of course if there's anything you don't like, you can also let them know before starting that you'd like to exclude it. Taste wise, I think I expected something different. I saw them adding so much sauce and spreading it evenly, so I expected super flavorful bites all around, but I guess because the sauce was added to the top instead of being mixed with the eggs (which I know isn't possible with the way it's made), you get super bland and dry bites mixed with super salty ones. Maybe this just isn't for me because my husband loved it and chowed down on it real fast. Recommend getting this to share as it's huge and some might not like it. Good value for what you get for sure.

Their HK style food is authentic and delicious. We started with the hot and sour soup and it is literally the best version we have ever had. It had a bit of the Szechuan numbing spice and was a huge portion so we took half home. We also ordered their steamed rice rolls with shrimp and chive and you can tell it was made fresh by the wrinkles in the rice paper. The last item we ordered was their chinese sausage clay pot. It was exactly what we were craving. Crispy rice all along the edges with perfectly steamed rice, chinese broccoli and crispy chinese sausage. It was hard to choose because their menu was huge and we came late so we missed the pineapple buns but definitely need to try it next time. I also saw everyone ordering the lemon iced tea and realized it's because they do free refills! That's another need to try. I felt the value was really great and we definitely are coming back. Service was also great. The waiters quickly came over when you waved them down and they checked on you just the right amount of time. The decor inside is very cute and I love the retro style. Only complaint I would have is that we sat on the left side of the restaurant and there were quite a few mosquitos on the booth so we ended up sitting on one side.

It took about ten minutes for us to get a booth table, but we were waiting inside. The staff member called numbers firstly in Cantonese then in English. After we sat down, the waiting line persisted past 1 pm. Similarly, the bustling loudness continued on during the course of our meal. Food arrived quickly, however. The price point for the delicious food is competitive. We got French-style filet mignon ($18.99), braised tofu in brown sauce ($14.99), chicken chow mein ($14.99), and a steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork ($5.99). A pot of rice was included in our meal. The steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork was a nice appetizer that arrived first. I enjoyed how the French-style filet mignon was garnished with Thai basil, black pepper, and ginger. The meat was flavorful and tender. The braised tofu in brown sauce was consistently hot on the inside. The delicious brown sauce soaked throughout the vegetables. The chicken chow mein didn't have a lot of sauce, but it was still delicious with a lot of meat included. Overall, it would be nice to visit again outside of a peak time because the food prices are competitive. The menu is expansive, and the breakfast selections look interesting. The atmosphere during the Sunday lunch peak time was consistently bustling. I think the restaurant started to play Chinese music loudly at random points so that people could finish dining more quickly.

The service is fast and they offer free rice refills. They also promptly refill water. I like that i can order everything without speaking a word of my broken chinese. Overall the store is clean and well lit. Another thing i like is the portion size. the single serving of green peppercorn soup is enough that I can save the soup for the next day and enjoy it again.
