    53. Shrimp with Scrambled Egg
    Elmer A.

    Great tasting food with great service on a dinner visit on 3/20/2026. Our faves are Shrimp with scrambled eggs and the Dry Sautéed Strings Beans. You cant go wrong!

    A few days late, but I had to leave this glowing review about their service. I had ordered a meal and there was an issue for me with that meal. They said come back and we'll correct it for you and you'll leave happy! My meal was replaced and they threw in an order of egg rolls on the house and that made happy! I can't say enough good things about Ma's House. The food is out of this world as well.

    Authentic Chinese restaurant located in Poway. Lots of traditional dishes with a specialty in their beef roll and sesame bread with green onion. Some of our favorites are the stir-fried lamb with cumin, filet mignon with black pepper sauce, and the seafood tofu soup. Portions are decent and prices are comparable to other similar restaurants in Convoy. Service can be mediocre depending on who you get. There is a man who we've had a couple times as our server and he can be rude and dismissive. Big parking lot shared with the adjacent stores, never had any issues finding parking.

    The place has plenty of seating Fast and friendly service Authentic Chinese food..we.got the egg flow soup..garlic chicken with jalapeños and chicken friend rice. The quantity is good portion size. The garlic chicken had amazing flavor and spicy. I also got boba thai tea which was a big size.

    Service is nice. The parking in front of the store is just 15 mins. We were looking forward to the handmade noodles ($1 extra), but they weren't chewy at all. It felt like they were already cooked once then cooked again. The broth was good and I like the pairing with spinach for the beef noodle soup. I kept getting distracted by the bugs flying around. Eventually, they were eating with us too (see review photo). Not a fan of pre-dispensed water sitting on the side with this many bugs flying around the store. Bathroom is a little dirty. Sticky ground. I would give them another chance but probably would not come here again. I feel itchy when I see so many bugs flying around in an indoor establishment.

    Chicken fried rice with chili oil
    Juan C.

    It was my first time having beef roll. It was not what I was expecting but I was defiantly plenty surprised. Sweet and tender and the veggies were really fresh.. I also had the chicken fried rice. With a little chili oil the rice was perfect. Can't wait to go back. The restaurant in Poway is also Halal.

    This authentic Chinese restaurant is bright, warm, welcoming and very clean. Staff here very friendly and made fantastic recommendations on the menu. Wide variety of choices. The lunch specials here are the best value and excellent, flavorful dishes. Lunches here come with soup, egg roll, rice and a large portion of entree. The orange beef, green onion beef and 3 flavor sizzling rice soup were outstanding. We had a massive lunch for 4 people for under $60. Amazing. Value here!

    Great service here! A group of us was in for dinner on a week night to celebrate a birthday. The waiter heard and brought out a slice of cake for us! It is not something they usually do, especially Chinese restaurants. The staff was really nice and friendly. Made all the difference between a good dining experience and a great one. We ordered a few dishes for dinner and had it family style. We like all the dishes we ordered. They were able to make modifications to the dishes. For example we asked for chicken chow fun instead of the usual beef chow fun. No problem! There are a lot of vegetarian options. It was one of the reasons why we picked this restaurant. One person in our party was a vegetarian, another was gluten free, another doesn't eat beef... there was something for everyone!

    Terrible Kung Pao Chicken
    Dan E.

    The highs and lows of Ma's House! While I spoke highly of their Orange Beef, which was exquisite, their Kung Pao Chicken was another matter entirely. It looked and tasted like it was cooked in a Crock Pot, rather than a wok. A soupy brown gravy, soft chicken and very little discernible spice heat. Completely devoid of any wok hei. Quite possibly the worst Kung Pao I've ever been served. The Chicken Corn Creamy soup this visit was very tasty.

Ordering is done via an ipad at the table but they're available for any menu questions and quick with water refills. Food is SO GOOD. You can really tell the dumpling wrappers (for dumplings, xiao long bao, and wontons) are handmade. They're more springy and al dente and beautifully wrapped. We ordered a ton of food and everything was really tasty I didn't react fast enough with photos. Xiao long bao are a MUST - and you gotta enjoy it with the vinegar and ginger! The cucumber salad is WAY better than ding tai fung's in both taste, texture, and portion! Chili oil wontons were big and deliciously fragrant, not spicy. Pan fried pork buns were crispy on the bottom with a soft and pillowy bread and juicy meat filling. We also got the combination fried rice which was beautifully golden eggy and full of meat & shrimp. The green beans were flavorful and not overly oily. Fried chicken wings were one of my favorites! Last but not least we also ordered the chonqing spicy chicken - not too spicy, full of numbing peppercorn goodness, fried lightly and very criispy. The restaurant is well decorated and clean, very spacious and good for groups. There's a cute gazebo table right at the front too. Plenty of parking in the plaza lot. . A great place for authentic Chinese food. Will definitely be returning!

    Food: 5 Service: 5…read moreAmbiance: 4 After living in Poway for 25 years, I only discovered Joyee within the past two years, and honestly, I have no idea how I missed it for so long. Joyee is a legit, homey Chinese restaurant that delivers every single time. The service is friendly, no fuss, and very efficient, whether it's busy or slow. What really stands out is the food. It is always fresh, piping hot, and insanely delicious every time we visit. No matter when we come, the quality and consistency never change. Everything we've ordered has been amazing -- from the boiled fish and boiled beef to the walnut shrimp, salt and pepper fish, Mongolian beef, and the green beans with garlic, which is my absolute favorite. Every dish hits the spot. We've also ordered takeout many times for family gatherings, and the food always travels well and is just as good at home. We are always left super happy and super stuffed after every visit. If you're looking for a solid Chinese food spot in Poway, I cannot recommend Joyee enough. This is hands down my number one Chinese restaurant in Poway,

    Disappointing takeout experience. I asked for a simple adjustment to my beef chow fun (more…read morenoodles, less vegetables and meat), but the staff refused and then hung up on me. Very unprofessional. The inability to make even a basic change also makes me question whether the food is freshly cooked, it feels more like pre-made. Wouldn't come back.

When we walked in, the staff were so friendly and went over the specials and also let us know what they didn't have for that morning. (Thankfully everything I was planning to order they had all of it)! Drinks: Calamasi Refresher The nice staff member recommended this drink and it was the perfect pairing with our breakfast. I usually stick with drinking water but this was a really good pick! 5/5 Appetizers: Pork lumpia: 5/5, of course we had to get this! Combo plates: Longsilog bowls ~ which came with garlic rice, fried egg, scoop of Mac and cheese. It was super filling and I thought it was never ending witu the amount of longsilog they gave. This dish paired well with their spice vinegar. There were literally no crumbs left. I always love supporting family owned restaurants. Filipino food is my top favorite foods. I can't wait to come back in August!

LUMPIAS: Tried both the pork and beef lumpias and while both were good, we all liked the pork ones more since they just had more of a kick to them. Perfectly fried and crispy! BREAKFAST MUSUBI: We wanted to try this and see how well the hashbrown went with the musubi. It was decent but don't think it's something I would get again. It was a bit hard to eat as the whole thing fell apart quickly so we ended up picking at it like a salad. SISIG COMBO PLATE: I was able to get half half garlic fried rice and pancit for my carbs. Nice, crispy pork belly cut into the perfect bite sized pieces. Loved the mango serrano salsa! UBE CHEESECAKE: I wanted the minis but they were out at the time, so I ended up getting the full sized one. It's still not too big so perfect for 1-2 people. Good flavor and not overly sweet! Overall, great Filipino food although pricey for what it is; I got a bit of sticker shock when my total showed up. It's also a bit out of the way, but I'd definitely return to try other menu items if I'm ever passing though the area again. Definitely just a once in a while visit for me anyways because of the cost.
