    Pretty bad Chinese food spot. The food was just not good. Customer service seemed like they didn't really care either. Wouldn't recommend, and wouldn't return.

    Hot and sour soup

    The good: The prices are cheap* and the quality is largely reflected in that equation. Food is mediocre all around with a few exceptions. The orange beef was texturally satisfying and had good flavor; as did the boneless spareribs. The bad: The salt and pepper squid was not good and although was visually appealing; tasted awful. The fried rice with the lunch special had pork pieces that tasted old/expired. The hot and sour soup was mediocre and not very tasty but not terrible. I came in at 2:50 right before lunch ended; the place was empty except for a few alcoholics at the bar; and there was no one there to seat me; there appeared to be only 1 person working the bar/register and seating people. I had to awkwardly stand around waiting for about 5 minutes to be seated, even though the restaurant was basically empty. Clearly understaffed. The ugly: The single manager working; who was clearly not an amateur, and was a seasoned pro, overcharged my meal with a whopping "10 $ tip" included, which I almost didn't notice, because I was tired and not really paying attention. Either this manager is incompetent or worse, intentionally tried to overcharge me thinking he could slip it by me; either way it soured my entire dining experience and this will be the first, and last time I will be patronizing this establishment. I understand people make mistakes, but this was not a rookie on his first day; the vibe after I caught him seemed like he did it on purpose. He

    My brother ordered food from this restaurant and wasn't impressed with the food. He said this will be the first and last time going here.

    Hungry family, bad service - ordered two dishes, both poorly done. Outta there!

    Excellent boneless ribs and prices are reasonable. I've had takeout out here multiple times.

    This is a long time local favorite. Nothing fancy or fusion but I think of it as old school,…read moretraditional Chinese food. Being Chinese that comforts me. lol. I got the Ma Po Tofu and the Alaskan Roll. The tofu dish was very tasty. It had I want to say a caramel like flavor or maybe it was molasses. It didn't come with ground pork or any vegetables. It didn't come with rice either luckily, I ordered a small container of rice. As we sadly know, we're getting less for more money these days. The roll was fresh. You get six pieces with your order. Eight would've been better. I wanted more after I finished my six . I ordered takeout this time, but I have eaten there in person many times. The food is always good and the portion size is good. I highly recommend the chow foon. It is exceptional. I hope you try it!

    Front staff was nice. Appetizers were lackluster. Tried the Mini Juicy Beef Buns and Wonton soup…read more Nothing seemed to be made fresh. The flavors were absent in both dishes. The buns were really mini and felt like they were steamed from frozen, or from a store bought bag. The juice was a little flavorful but nothing in the meat. Even if you ate all 6, it's not filling for the $9+ price tag. The small wonton soup had color but lacked flavor. The wonton wrapping seemed a little soggy too. There were also no fried noodles to go with it. The meal ended quickly for $15. Based on these two dishes, I cannot give a good rating.

    Near perfect cuisine. Total authentic Asian, always fresh & flavorful. There are a few reviews here…read morewho I'm fully confident are disingenuous, perhaps unlawfully slanderous. I would suspect they are content on trying to persuade the public away from a fantastic establishment which prides itself on providing true asian dishes. Captain C or whatever his name is likely more accustomed to pairing an egg roll on a chicken farm than appreciating what authentic food from Asia actually taste like. It should sound an alarm whenever someone repeatedly creates reviews either praising or tarnishing an establishment. It should tell you it's highly personal. Fact is from my personal experience having first dined at Mai Pearl at least 4 years ago and having the pleasure to repeat a genuine excellent dining experience at least once every 6 months when I'm in the area I have yet to experience anything other than great sushi, great entrees, good cocktails & decent enough service in that it's attentive without unnecessarily being interrupted while enjoying the good food & drinks and company I'm with. Please beware there are people on Yelp who's job it is literally to shake down or destroy an establishment. There's plenty of businesses who shouldn't be even opened their so poorly managed while often being unsanitary. This group of owners, managers, whoever they are care far more than most on what it means to be hard working responsible and fair as well as clean. You are assured from the moment you arrive that this is the best Asian establishment in the area and from my personal experience the best tasting Asian food of Chinese heritage that I have personally come across in North America. Bon Appetite

It is certainly not the best Chinese food around, but it is not the worst either. I do like that they offer combination plates, which is becoming harder to find at some restaurants, and there are still a few decent options on the menu. The biggest issue for me is the overall condition and atmosphere of the restaurant. During my visit there were tiny fruit flies, gnats, or similar small insects flying around the dining room and even in the men's bathroom. That is definitely not something you want to deal with while trying to eat and it really takes away from the experience. Another thing I have noticed is how empty the restaurant has been. The last few times I have been here there have been very few, if any, other customers in the dining room. Obviously I cannot speak to their overall business, but seeing the place consistently that quiet does not exactly inspire confidence. Overall, Mai Pearl is just okay at this point. The food is passable and I appreciate the combination plates, but between the cleanliness concerns, lack of atmosphere, and decline in food quality compared with years ago, it is difficult to recommend. I remember this being a much better place, and unfortunately it just does not seem to be what it used to be.

This is important because it comes nice and hot, right from the kitchen. The BBQ SpareribCombo Plate is amazingly and if it is a day that you are dining alone you get a good variety of taste food . This is a family business and they treat you as though you too were a family member. They have their own delivery person who speaker good English and is friendly and always pleasant. I am recovering from a long illness and they were thoughtful many times over-the to ask me how I am feeling. The family s son has several times even done my delivery personally. The Golden Abacus by far has the most delious food around. The portions are large and prepared by their chief, who just happens to be the father . They are not cheap but the food is the very best. They charge you for duck sauce which is outrageous but the food is so good that it is l guess going too far with the duck sauce. I pay it but it annoys me.
