We went to Chimama's for a quick dinner tonight. We ordered the Khong Rou Fan, Niu Rou Mian, and…read morestring beans as an appetizer. I like their food because it's simple, tasty, and comes out quickly. The Khong Rou Fan is comforting and flavorful, and the Niu Rou Mian is always a good choice when you want something warm and satisfying. The string beans were a nice light appetizer to start. It's kind of a semi-service place -- you order at the counter and clean up after yourself when you're done, so there's no need to leave a tip if you dine in. The cashier who took our order is always nice, friendly, and polite, which makes the experience pleasant. The place is also always clean, which I appreciate. Overall it's a good spot when you want a quick, easy meal without a long wait.

Came for lunch on a weekday with a friend. We ordered one appetizer (stinky tofu), two lunch bowls…read more(Lou Rou Fan & Taiwanese Sausage bento), plus a side order of fried pork chops. The good- plenty of meat in Lou Rou Fan, the texture of stinky tofu, the no tipping but bus your own tray business model. Friendliness of staff behind the ordering counter. The so-so: not enough fragrance in stinky tofu, the slightly soggy/oily pork chop, and lack of fragrance in Taiwanese sausage. The somewhat expensive price( our lunch costing $56 total). Will probably revisit another time to see how other dishes taste and see what price point it will result in.

Amazing as usual! We did hear some shocking news while we were there from Mama Lee. She will no…read morelonger be offering her stir fry menu and will not have a dine in option anymore. She will be offering Taiwanese specialties that can be prepared in advance, cooked fresh and taken to go. We were sad to hear this but also very excited for the new things that Mama Lee will have on the menu! We were happy we got to try her food one last time and it didn't disappoint as usual. We've probably tried everything on her stir fry menu and it's all delicious. Plus, she offers a complimentary generous serving of rice and water bottles. I recommend going for Mama Lee's amazing food but also for her kindness and friendliness too. She's a staple in our community.

It was a really cold day when we craved some warm comfort food, so we decided to get take out from…read moreMama Lee. When we got home, we realized that one of the soups for the beef noodles was missing, so we called and Mama Lee rectified the situation right away. She was extremely apologetic and states that due to the fridged weather, they were lower in staff and things got busy so a mistake was made. We did have to drive back to pick up the order, but customer service was excellent. We tried the beef noodle soup ($22), salt and pepper chicken ($22), Taiwanese pork chops ($22), sauté string beans ($22), 3 cup chicken ($22). The beef noodle soup was fantastic. Broth was savory, and portion size for the noodles and beef was enough for 2 people. The beef was thick, tender, and delicious. I did wish the noodles clung onto the soup more, but I just took a sip of soup between bites and was still satisfied. I thought the sauté string beans, and 3 cup chicken were fine. I could taste the wok hay. I wish the salt and pepper chicken had more salt and pepper flavor. We weren't a fan of the pork chops though. Overall, we would definitely come again for the beef noodle soup. We were informed that there is an additional 3% added on if you pay with card.

You can taste the soybean flavor. We enjoyed it. Oyster pancake: $11.45. We enjoyed this flavorful dish. Plenty of little oysters. Fried bun with chives and egg: $4.30. Crispy outside with packed filling. Scallion pancake: $4.90 not as crispy as above. Generous portion. Family meal combo $52.00: 3 dishes , white rice and soup. We had: Pork chop Peking style: crispy deep fried pork chop coated with sweet abd sour sauce. A favorite for kids. Chunk chicken Taiwan: a casserole dish with enough heat. Very flavorful. It's a hearted heavier seasoned dish. Braided pork belly: another casserole dish with heat. Full of wok chi (wok heat). Sauce is more heavily seasoned. It's a fatty meat due to pork belly. Overall we are satisfied. It's a good quiet neighborhood restaurant which has been opened for at least 10 years. Service was good. Food service time was quick. Parking is easy in the evening. Will return. Credit card accepted if more than $30 transaction. Card and cash same price.

First time coming and the food was just ok. The beef noodle…read moresoup was pretty good. Nice flavor and good portion size. The braised pork over rice was a good simple dish. The sesame noodle honestly was not very good. Normally this would be a dry cold dish, however this was hot and still wet on the bottom. The flavor was a bit on the sweeter side. The dan dan noodles was not bad flavor was good and portion size was good. Honestly the best thing I had was the popcorn chicken which was made well. The place is pretty small only about 14 seats total and maybe another 4 seat in front of the window bar style. Quite little place. The service was a bit on the slow side and the waiter was not very tentative. Lucky we were there earlier and first as we probably would have had to wait a bit for food. I guess due to only two person crew.

Found this spot on a whim and decided to try it out! I ended up dining in here. It's not ideal…read moresince it's small inside with about 3 tables. I love love love the classic Taiwanese dishes that were on the menu here. I couldn't help myself but to order to my stomachs content. Of course, the stinky tofu! Not as stinky as I'd like (IYKYK). But the flavor of the sauce with the hot sauce that it comes with matches perfectly. I also ordered a trio appetizer of braised intestines, pig foot and tofu. They were all delicious! Nicely warm and all melts in your mouth. Good flavor! Pairs well with rice. My main was the chicken set. Delicious! And I love how they did the chicken 2 ways. With all the little side apps that it comes with as well. Everything was great. I didn't give a full 5 stars and this one negative may break it for you in coming here but while I was sitting I did notice small baby roaches strolling along the walls. Not a good sign and like I said might turn you away. I'll probably just order to go from here BUT that stuff doesn't phase me as long as it wasn't in my food. Let me know what you think!

If you have ever been to Taiwan, walking in here feels like stepping right back there! It has such cozy vibes that perfectly capture the feeling of early 2000s Taiwanese MVs. We were also able to park right out front, which was super convenient! A huge shout-out to Daniel, who showed us incredible hospitality! Even though the restaurant was full and he was managing the front solo, he handled everything with such grace. He kindly asked a customer if they could offer my wife and our baby a seat, brought us our drinks immediately in case we needed to drink while waiting for the food, and made sure we were completely comfortable while juggling other orders. Thank you, Daniel! As for the food, it's always consistent in the best way possible. We ordered our usuals: the braised pork with rice, the popcorn chicken with rice, and the kumquat lemon drinks. The quality is top-notch, and the portion sizes always leave us feeling full and satisfied! My wife would usually eat half the bowl and save the other half for the next day. FYI: If the restaurant gets busy, there is a kiosk inside where you can order and pay, which makes the whole process very convenient. Highly recommended!

Ooodles Noodle House has become my go-to weekend spot for a quick, satisfying meal. I usually order…read morethe tomato braised beef noodle soup and the chicken cutlet over rice--both consistently hit the mark. The beef noodle soup is rich and comforting with a deep tomato flavor, and the beef is tender and flavorful. The chicken cutlet is crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and pairs perfectly with the rice. The space is definitely on the smaller side, but service is super quick and efficient, which makes it ideal for a fast bite. Portions are generous, and the flavors taste very authentic, which keeps me coming back almost every weekend.

We ordered the chicken cutlet meal and the beef noodle soup. The chicken was cooked beautifully, light, crispy, and not greasy at all. The beef noodle soup leaned more Taiwanese in style, with a lighter broth than I usually prefer, but the meat was tender and well seasoned. To top it off, the chef treated us to a complimentary aiyu jelly drink, which was light and refreshing. We'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.

I was in the mood for some Blood Rice Cakes, so I stopped by just as they opened for the day. One of the kitchen staff handed me the order, and I should have double checked it then, but I didn't think to since we were there as they opened (they must have gotten other orders already!). Upon arriving home, I realized they gave me the wrong order. We called them, and they has also realized the error and offered to remake the order. We headed back to pick up the correct order. They give a decent portion, and the spiciness is always on point. Be warned that the Hot is like pure spicy! What I ordered: -Blood Rice Cakes (Mild): good chewy texture. It's mild in flavor, so might be better with a Medium spicy. -Turnip Cakes (Medium): nice soft interior, and a crisp exterior. Good turnip flavor, that is not overpowered by the spicy. What was mistakenly given to me (eaten the next day - reheated): -Legend Pops (Medium?): Good ratio of breading to chicken. Best to reheat this by toaster oven to crisp up a little. The chicken held up well. -Sweet Potato Fries with Honey Mustard: Good soft texture and sweet potato flavor. I am happy that they have this location, since it is much easier to stop by, and there is seating if I choose to eat in.

Make a reservation ahead of time if you have a large party, and you can actually also put in orders as well if you want them to customize your dishes. Good to give it a try if you're around the area.

Cons- Poor managment practice, does not honor a duo cold dish combination we tried ordering, and then *messed up on a substitute cold dish(tasteless, hard, & under-preserved), yet didn't offer to switch items, nor provide any discount on our bill, despite poor product quality on this cold braised kelp (seaweed) dish. Unappreciative serving staff, despite we paid a 18% tip for a mid-week late lunch, who never thanked us nor apologize on behalf of management for aforementioned errors. Clarifying on details, the printed double-sided menu stated one can order any 2 cold dishes for $16. Yet when we tried to order cucumber salad(A2=$8) with marinated wheat gluten(A6=$12), the server(s) told us management won't honor our combo order for $16, citing 'printer error.' So we ordered braised kelp(A4=seaweed,$8) as a substitute, thus our 2 cold dishes add up to the &16 combo price. This particular seaweed dish not only was tasteless, it was hard to chew, so one had to spit it back out. When pointed out to the server(s) of this fact, all they said were they will inform the kitchen staff to do a better job next time, while offer no discount, nor a substitute cold dish item instead!

We tried the Three Cup Chicken, Taiwanese Liver, and Stinky Tofu, and I enjoyed all three dishes. Everything was flavorful and satisfying, and I would definitely come back to try more of the menu. There were a couple of things that could use some attention. The bathroom felt quite dated and could definitely benefit from a makeover. Also, while I was eating, one of the workers was trying to kill a fly in the dining area. I understand that flies happen, especially in restaurants, but dealing with it right next to customers while they are eating was a little off-putting. Those issues aside, the food was the highlight and the overall experience was good. With a few improvements to the dining environment, this could be an even better experience.
