Always a solid spot for takeout. This time we ordered orange flavor beef and cashew chicken. Fresh, flavorful and filling. Order is always ready on time and the woman at the front always so friendly!

One of my favorite spots to have lunch at in town! This Chinese restaurant is amazing, the staff is always super nice and helpful. The food is really good fresh and it comes out quickly. Love the interior decor of the place. It has that classic old school Chinese restaurant vibe to it I love it here.

Beef Chow Fun

Finally got to try Imperial Garden and it falls somewhere between 3-4 stars. I always round up when I'm unsure of the number, nice staff will always leave enough of an impression on me to round up. This restaurant is definitely giving blast from the past, I loved the inside. Baby pink and green decor. It's definitely old school in decor and that's what gives it its charm. I called in an order for pickup so I didn't get to dine inside but I went in for my food and waited a few minutes so I got a good look at the place. The staff working here were very very nice. Both a woman and a gentlemen helped me and had friendly attitudes. I felt my patronage was appreciated. My food was ready right on time and packaged nicely. The food overall had hits and misses. Every dish was good but having read some of the higher 5 star recent reviews I think I had gotten my hopes extra up. The dishes I enjoyed were the veggie egg rolls. As simple as they were they were very tasty and the winning combo is how good their spicy mustard and sweet and sour sauce are. Would totally get this again. Another dish that I liked was their chow fun, needed a little more sauce in my opinion but was promising. The two dishes that were average were their fried rice and shrimp egg foo young. Wouldn't likely get them again or recommend them. Not bad by any means but just okay. An appetizer, one main dish, one noodle dish, and one fried rice dish came to $60. Always on the hunt for good Chinese food. This place definitely filled my craving for the day but not sure it would be in my very top Chinese restaurant recommendation for this side of town. My breakdown is: Service 5/5. Food 3/5. Pricing 3.5/5.

Hot, fresh and savory!!! Food came out fast! Great quality ingredients were slowly tasted. Inside is your typical old fashioned Chinese neighborhood restaurant. Nothing wrong with that. Let the great food and fast friendly service do the talking. Plenty of parking outside. Inside is clean and the restroom is not dingy like the ones in Chinatown. We randomly selected this place because we were craving for some Chinese food and we don't want to drive to Alhambra or San Gabriel.

I was in the area for an appointment and found this place on Yelp! So glad I gave it a try, it's so delicious, flavors are so authentic. Staff are kind and give it a family vibe! Definitely coming back to try other dishes!

My family and I have been loyal patrons of Imperial Garden for over six years, appreciating its proximity to CalLu and the convenience of its fast pickup service. Generally, the food is satisfactory, with generous portions and consistent quality. The restaurant maintains a clean environment, providing a pleasant ambiance for dine-in patrons.

Imperial Garden always provides the best service. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. Food is always delicious and you can't beat the lunch special price. A hidden gem in Thousand Oaks for sure!

Luau Grill - Kalua Combo (Pork with Chicken Katsu) & Spam Musubi

Authentic Island Flavors at Luau Grill…read more My wife, our three sons, and I recently stopped by Luau Grill in Thousand Oaks, and it was one of those spots that instantly makes you feel at home. With its true mom and pop shop feel, this place delivers not just on flavor, but on that welcoming, no-frills atmosphere that makes you want to come back again and again. Entrées: We ordered the chicken katsu and kalbi short ribs, and both were outstanding. The chicken katsu was perfectly crispy on the outside while staying juicy and tender on the inside, paired with a flavorful sauce that brought everything together. The kalbi short ribs were just as impressive, marinated well with that sweet and savory balance you expect from great Hawaiian BBQ, and cooked to perfection with a nice char. Sides: Each plate came with white rice and macaroni salad, and both hit the mark. The rice was fluffy and a perfect base for the meats, while the macaroni salad was creamy, simple, and exactly what you want alongside a hearty Hawaiian meal. Appetizers: We also grabbed a classic spam musubi, and it did not disappoint. The spam was nicely seared with a slightly sweet glaze, sitting on perfectly seasoned rice and wrapped in seaweed. Simple, but done right. Ambience: The vibe here is as authentic as it gets. It truly feels like a small family-run spot where the focus is on good food and good service rather than anything flashy. That mom and pop atmosphere adds a lot of charm to the overall experience. Overall: Luau Grill is a must-visit if you're in Thousand Oaks and craving authentic Hawaiian food. Dining here with our three sons was easy and enjoyable, and from the quality of the dishes to the welcoming feel of the place, everything comes together for a great experience. Easily one of the best Hawaiian spots around, and definitely somewhere we'll be returning to.

I felt compelled to leave this review because this place truly deserves more recognition…read more Luau Grill is a newer spot in Westlake Village, and while I often see it quieter than it should be, the food and overall experience are honestly impeccable. The food is extremely consistent -- which is exactly what you want from a restaurant like this -- and every time I've come in, everything tastes just as good as the last visit. The restaurant itself is immaculately clean, the portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity you're getting. On top of that, the service is excellent. There's a staff member I often see working there who is always attentive, friendly, and makes the experience even better. I also really love seeing Hawaiian culture and beach vibes making their way into Westlake Village -- between this spot and the new Hawaiian coffee shop coming in, it's such a great addition to the area. Highly recommend supporting this place. Easily a 5-star experience, and I hope more people discover it soon.

There's alway that nice factor of trying someplace new. This was a find from one of our friend…read more Which was also a hit from another friend who's dined before. We had a dinner reservation last Saturday which we showed up a little early to have a cocktail before hand. It's located inside of a strip mall with loads of parking. A decent size patio seating. When you walk in, you're greeted with the hostess who were amazing. Right infront of you is the bar area. That itself isn't big at all. There's a few seat along the bar area and that's about it. Also inside dining isn't big as well. Restaurants wasn't massive but nice and quaint and very busy. We were told that if we wanted to grab a drink and take it outside to a spot while we wait for our table it would be fine. They would come get us once it's ready. Cocktails and wine menu was quite nice. They do allow you to bring up to two bottles for a corkage fee. Which we did take advantage of. But beforehand, started off with their smoke and sour cocktails. Mezcal, lime, hibiscus juice, farm egg whites and cherry bitters. It was quite delicious and that smoked mezcal, wow. If you like mezcal, it's worth trying. Bar area isn't big so we had to stand there and wait for our drink. Maybe a 10 to 15 minutes later, we were informed our table was ready. We were seated right behind the bar area for a table for four. I believe Jonathan was our waiter. Very sweet and friendly. Also, it did seemed like a lot of regulars. All the staff members seem to know everyone that was dining. Menu is limited but quite impressive. We started off with a few shared plates before the entrees. -Ember roasted red beets with preserved lemon crèma, spiced pumpkin seeds, pickled Fresno chilis and mint. Wow, it was delicious. The flavors with the beets, kiss kiss. -Smoke trout toast- blisters cherry tomatoes, candy beets, wild arugula, crème fraiche and lemon. This was top dish for starters from all of us. The flavor of the trout was the star of the dish. Highly recommend. -Mushrooms flatbread- shiitake, buna shimeji and oyster mushrooms, tarragon, fiore di Latte mozzarella and crème fraiche. Mushrooms lovers with amazing variety all combined together for a delicious bite. -Spicy scampi flatbread- rock shrimp, parsley, garlic, Calabrian chilis and parmigiano reggiano. It's literally having a seafood scampi but on a flatbread. Wow wow, favorite out of the two flatbread. Definitely recommend. Entrees, Manila clams and salt spring mussels tossed in spaghetti with Calabrian chilis and parsley. The flavors were excellent. Simple but very tasty. -Crispy gnocchi with cherry tomatoes, basil in a Parmesan fondue. It's alway a hit or miss for me but this was a hit. And the elk which was maybe a special. Not quite sure the whole description but it was very tasty. Plus it was very tender and cooked perfectly and mixed with a sauce and topped with crispy onions. Another hit. Lastly we actually had room left for dessert which was the bread pudding. Hot with a nice scoop of vanilla ice cream. Perfect way to end an amazing meal. The service was great. Food was excellent and highly recommended. Each dish had its unique taste that was delicious. Everything ordered was outstanding and no crumbs were left. We would definitely be back.

Absolutely love it here. My biggest regret is I moved out of State 9 mo ago. But being back for a…read morecouple days made it a no-brainer to stop in. The food is inspired, and insanely delicious. The people are the best (great seeing you, Annie! Sorry I missed you, Vicki!). 8:15pm and still a lively crowd inside, everyone enjoying themselves. Naveed took care of me at the bar where I began with the perfectly prepared Moody Rooster Old Fashion. Added to that Just a couple appetizers this time: the Burrata and Artichoke, and the Sea Bream crudo. The former had a beautiful burrata mound atop artichoke hearts, pine nuts, and olive oil. Perfect blending of flavors. The crudo was equally well-received. An ample pile dressed up in the center of a shallow bowl, with plenty of olive oil, as opposed to being slices merely laid flat on a plate. Fortunately I'll be back in the area in a week. can't wait to return!
