We love this one! Take out or dine in. Yummy and fun. Big menu and charm for nice Chinese meal read more

I am extremely satisfied with all the items we got! Shumai comes in four big sizes, tasty & moist. Chicken feet are so balanced, no aftertaste, tender & addicting. Siopao (pork bun) is packed with meat in a soft & chewy bun. Porridge tastes so fresh with the right amount of pork & preserved eggs. The place is very neat & spacious good for groups. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! read more

Very fresh and flavorful. At first I felt the prices might be a bit high, but actually, it was so fresh and the meats were all juicy and tender, that I didn't mind the price for higher quality ingredients. We will definitely be back. We got Kung Pao beef, chicken and shrimp and chow mein and vegetables, with veggie spring rolls. Authentic and so enjoyable. Large portions, so we have enough for a second small meal. read more

I made reservations here to celebrate my dad's birthday for a party of 9 and we had so much fun trying multiple different dishes. The service was great! Super friendly and brought out my Thai Tea quickly. This spot is fairly new and opened appropriately 9 months ago. They have a dim sum menu as well as a separate menu with their Chinese food dishes! I really enjoyed the fact that they had different options as it opened it up for everyone to try something different. Their wor won ton soup was one of my favorites and I got the shrimp low mein, which has delicious noodles. I will definitely be back when I am in the area! read more

This place seems like a small family owned business and it's pretty new so I hate to give less than 5 stars BUT... I ordered the shrimp dumplings / hak gao, siu mai, steamed pork buns, niu luo wan / beef meat balls, egg tarts / dan tat, salted egg yolk buns, and the chang fen / shrimp noodle rolls. total came out to $51... kinda pricy but that's pretty common with any dim sum place these days... sigh. Siu mai was pretty good, big, meaty, a tad over salted maybe. Hak gao was okay. big. not that flavorful... I'm not really a fan of hak gao anyway so idk. Here's where it goes downhill. WORST meatballs I've ever had in my entire life. it tasted like they just made italian style meatballs and just steamed it. texture was coarse and grainy instead of more like a smooth pudding kind of thing that you get at most other places. Flavor is pretty weird too. does not come with worstershisehrihsrishiere sauce. Chang fen was okay. noodles were strangely hard and really oily for some reason? the sauce wasn't sweet enough for my liking. not like your typical chang fen sauce. steamed bbq pork buns ONLY CAME WITH TWO??? wtf? usually it comes with three but... shrinkflation i guess???? dan tat was okay but small. not too sweet. decent crispy / fluffy ratio on the crust. salted egg yolk buns were nice and runny and tasted how it should. sweet and yolky and custardy. people who i interacted with seemed nice enough. I think it's the kids of the family who run the place. read more

Parking was easy to find and there was no wait on Sun afternoon. We ordered most of popular dim sum items. Price was higher than average dim sum places in 626 area. Tea was $2/ person. Shiu mai and ha cao were good and meaty. The BBQ pork buns and sticky rice wrapped were small in portion. There were only 2 buns instead of usual 3 and the sticky rice was only 1 piece per serving. For the price, we expect to receive a better portion or at least the same as other places. The steamed egg yolk buns were runny and flavorful. Chicken feet were also small in portion and flavor was just ok. The steamed BBQ Pork rice roll had lot of BBQ meat but the texture of the rice roll wasn't smooth. Service was quick. Clean restaurant and nice ambiance with soft music in the background. read more

Well I'll start with the food is tasty. Was there for lunch today and a woman walk in with a kid who threw up right next to our table. There were 4 people total in the restaurant and we all had to move tables. I would have given us a discount or even a free lunch but we got nothing. I'm not sure will be back because all we'd be thinking is about the puke. Do better read more

We really really enjoyed our meal. Coming for a visit from out of town I looked them up and was happily surprised at the authenticity of some dishes. We will definitely be back! read more

The food is very good, but the girl that waits on you is very rude & does not make you feel welcome at all! The older lady & young gentleman are kind, patient, love how they treat you like a family member ! But the young lady wouldn't let us watch tv while waiting for our take our , noone else in the restaurant at the time . She is rude & is making me change my mind about coming here! This is the 3 rd time in a encounter with her! ! My two friends also dont like her attitude . She told us to wait outside on a cold day even though thier were chairs to sit . No one else in place at tome & told my brother he couldnt watch the game on their tv. I could go to other places & buy food & dont get treated like this! read more

I was really impressed by the quality of the dim sum here. The orange chicken was fragrant and addictively crispy. The Singapore noodles and turnip cake were on point. And I was delightfully surprised to find the lotus seed buns on the menu. I would definitely come back! read more

Excellent baked bao. Also love the green beans. Servers friendly. Our favorite Asian restaurant in Pasadena.

Grew up in SGV so I have had dimsum my whole life. Now moved to pasadena & wanted to grab dimsum a bit closer. Yeah, so I'm likely not coming back & would just drive down to mpk or alhambra. It was pretty busy inside too so i was excited to find a spot close by. Unfortunately it wasnt that great & i am not a picky eater. Customer service was great though & its good enough to get your fix but not for me I guess. read more

Stopped by after visiting the Kids Space Museum in Pasadena with my son. We ordered the egg drop soup and some dumplings. The egg drop soup was especially delicious--highly recommend it! The restaurant was very clean, and the waitress was super friendly. Overall, it's a solid Chinese restaurant, though a bit on the pricey side. Still, a nice spot for a casual meal! read more

Super friendly service and generous portion on the chef crispy noodle special (ask for extra gravy on it). Good dim sum too - the char siew and har gao was good and their veggies was super fresh and not over seasoned. Some of the flavors here are very fresh and don't have as much msg as other restaurants which makes the food good. Their chili sauce is also very good with a lot of kick. Very nice clean dining room with cute interiors and a tv playing sports. Full dim sum menu at very reasonable prices. Nice little addition to east Pasadena area. Very reasonable prices too. Plenty of parking in large shopping lot. read more

Zero people in the restaurant and the lady at the front said I couldn't do a Togo order and I have to do it online. So I'm forced to pay for the online fees and higher prices. Don't waste your time here read more

Food was good... came out hot. Julie was exceptional and very understanding. Great place clean and comfortable

Our first time. Everything went well. We came in around 7pm. Plenty of room and greeted by, I think she's the owner. Very pleasant and always checked on us. We had the usual dim-sum and Singapore noodles and hot-sour soup. Everything was excellent. Price was very reasonable. We now found another dim sum restaurant in Pasadena that we will frequent. read more

Read about this restaurant somewhere and decided to try it after a day of packing to move. I showed up about 45 minutes before they closed. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Way to many things to pick from while dining alone. I have to go back with more people. Had help picking a seafood dish from the specialty section. Chinese chefs will tell you that you feast first with your eyes. The presentation was spot on. I don't eat much, but the chef made this very appetizing. The flavors were a little subdued, but about what I'd expect. I hope to be back. read more

A little on the pricey side but the food is good. I like their pad thai the most. Beef and broccoli had broccoli that was a little overcooked and shrimp fried rice could use some cashews and/or pineapple to make it more flavorful read more

Have been here several times. The food and service has always been great and they have an extensive menu.

Food is very good ! We are never disappointed when we eat here or order takeout. They are very nice and the food os made fresh and you can definitely taste that . read more

Their service was lacking. I walk in to do a take out and immediately they tell me I have to order online and I need to move away from the front counter. I sit in a booth and a very rude Chinese man tells me a have to move because the booth is reserved. Now normally I would not take up space but there is absolutely no one here... no one! And he didn't need to be such an ass about it. I am hoping their food makes up for them being so rude to me!! They need to learn some people skills!! read more

Went here for lunch, and was pleasantly surprised for find they serve dinsum all day. The food was comparable to Chinatown dimsum, which is good. I don't have to drive down there anymore, and this place is very close to my home. The menu overall is crazy extensive (other than dimsum). They have a huge Chinese food menu, plus some Thai (pad Thai), and even spaghetti! Overall, the food is good, the interior is nice and new, and the employees are super nice. Give them a try, support local! read more

This restaurant is GREAT! I went with my daughter because she LOVES dim sum and I was very pleased with the yummy food and great service. We loved the energy that the employees have and it feels like you are having dinner with family. We only tried the dim sum menu because i thought the prices were pretty good for the serving size. But there is just something so special about this place. Will definitely come back! read more

This was my 3rd visit and have grown fond of their traditional dishes. In all honesty, my first couple visits were for their dim sum which I found to be marginal. However, we were pleasantly surprised by how delicious their "angry fried rice", moo gai pan chicken and salt & pepper chicken tasted. Very simply dishes but we loved the layers of flavor in each one. We look forward to our next visit. read more

Do not let its appearance fool you. Looks like your typical Chinese food-to-go establishments. Nothing like the restaurants in San Gabriel. But.....literally the best Chinese food we've had, and we've had them all. Nothing in SGV, Monterey Park, Arcadia, and other places you can think of is as good as J's. Every dish will surprise you because each dish is a better version than anything you've had before. Unbelievable you say? Try it and find out for yourself read more

They have a variety of food to choose from. Great service! Steam buns were delicious, had the pad thai and orange chicken both came out hot, fresh and delicious. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back! read more

We enjoyed the wonton soup with orders of cucumber salad and egg rolls. The service was excellent in this small family run restaurant.

The place is clean. It's probably because it's newer? I hope they keep it clean because not too many Chinese restaurants are clean. The food is good. Service is good. read more

We went on a Sunday evening and the service was excellent. All the staff were always smiling, nice, and attentive. The restaurant is quaint, and the atmosphere was calm and soothing with soft music. Really good tasting dim sum, generous portions (siu mai and har gow are large, size comparable to Lunasia), and priced cheaper than other dim sum places around Pasadena. Looks like it's family owned. We hope this restaurant does well! We will definitely be coming back often for the comforting food! read more

I had to give it a try since I live so close. I do get skeptical on newly opened places but I was wrong. I ordered more than what's in the pictures and all the plates were delicious.

Delicious Chinese food! We got sizzling rice soup that came with a ton of seafood: fish, shrimp, squid and was very flavorful. The chicken cashew nut was also awesome. Similar to our old favorite, Spring Garden restaurant. The lettuce wraps with minced chicken were huge! We had to take everything home! The service was great too! Our server was kind and could speak both Cantonese to us and she said she speaks mandarin too. We for sure will come back read more
