    Black white fish soup and chili oil dumplings
    Jessica N.

    Our server Fengyu was very attentive and fast. She made sure our drinks were refilled, napkins were removed and we had everything we needed. She was working everywhere and really on top of her tables. You're given an ipad and you order from it. The food came out after 20-ish minutes and it was very crowded by 6pm. More people kept coming in after 8pm as well on a Friday evening. Parking got a little tight but there's a lot if you don't mind walking. To be honest, I recommend getting mild if you're not used to traditional Sichuan spices. I would consider myself a medium on the white people and Hispanic scale, but regular spicy was super hot here. The hot jasmine tea was nice but I needed some milk. The white fish soup (not the sour cabbage version) was a little too salty and the kung pao chicken used a little too much oyster sauce. However, the Treasure dessert and dumplings were great. I definitely recommend eating with more people so you can different dishes that looked really good. The interior was very pretty and honestly made up for the food. Overall, a very nice place for family dinners, business or date nights.

    Finding a dining spot that delivers equally on mood, menu and service can be rare, but Mountain House achieves it beautifully. The interior feels like a quiet escape from the city evoking very zen, slow-paced energy. The swing pork belly was elegant and delicious. For something heartier, the grilled pork was excellently prepared, remaining wonderfully tender and deeply savory. We balanced the heavier meats with the crisp okra salad, which had a fantastic taste. For our drink, we had watermelon smoothie. It's an incredibly peaceful place for a meal, and the execution of the food guarantees a return visit.

    Gotta be one of my favorite restaurants ever! Great service. Easy parking when its not busy hours. The restaurant is decorated so nicely. Highly recommend the mapo tofu and the sour black fish soup here. Both are sooo delicious. The stir fried pea shoots here is also really food and not too strong on garlic. I also love the swinging pork here, the sauce is soo delicious. Love this place.

    This is a well-known place for spicy Sichuan food. The interior is nicely done, and the ordering system is very convenient. I love spicy food, so I usually try places that people say are good. Overall, the food was good, but it was very oily, so I think some people may like it and some may not. The complimentary tea and cabbage were really nice. One thing that bothered me was water from the A/C dripping onto our table lol. We told the staff about it, but their reaction was... not what I expected. Overall, the food itself was good, but it was definitely on the oily side. The food also tasted a little under-seasoned to me. Personally, I think a little more saltiness would help bring out the spicy flavors better.

    Came in around 11:45am on a Sunday, no wait thankfully. Love the ambiance and the way the inside is set up. Definitely a unique setting. We tried a few dishes and our favorite was the La-Zi chicken. Spicy but not too spicy, and had great flavor. We also tried the pork belly swing since that is one of the most popular dishes, however, I think the dipping sauce was lacking flavor.

    Our server was wonderful! She constantly checked in on our table while still taking great care of her entire section. She kept our water glasses full, refilled the teapot with hot water, provided thoughtful plate changes, brought extra napkins, and was incredibly friendly throughout the entire meal. Truly exceptional service that made our dining experience even more enjoyable. The portions are on the smaller size, but the pricing reflects that as well. I liked that we could try more Szechuan dishes this way! Chili oil chicken (cold app) - 5/5, a Classic cold appetizer. The chili oil builds up in heat, but is very tasty with the chilled chicken. Chili oil wonton - 100/5, THIS WAS SO GOOD!!! I don't usually like wontons, but I loved the filling and chili oil. They were steaming hot and so delicious! Stir fry pea shoots with garlic - 10/5!!! I love a good garlicky veggie dish. Stir fry chill chicken - 3/5, it was fine! Since the chicken was cooked in smaller pieces it's not juicy and fishing out the meat from the chilies wasn't my favorite. Stir fry eggplants - 3/5, not my favorite. The green beans were overcooked for my personal preference. I like the sweet, sour, chili eggplant more than this soy sauce based version.

    Came here on a late Friday afternoon to check this place out. As this place is known for its authentic Sichuan cuisine, when ordering dishes, make sure to check with the server on the level of spiciness of each dish to avoid any surprises. For appetizer, we ordered House Chicken (川山甲跳鸡) - poached chicken in chili sauce. A light and refreshing dish matches perfectly with the chilled chili sauce. Sichuan Double Cooked Pork (盐菜回锅肉). This was my favorite dish of the meal. Perfectly seasoned (simmered and stir-fried) thin pork slices (pork belly) with leek. Goes perfectly with steamed rice! Sautéed Chinese Long Beans with eggplant (豆角烧茄子). Stir-fried slices of eggplant with long beans. A great dish to balance out the spiciness and protein-rich dishes that you will be ordering. Ma-Ma Hot Fish (Black fish) - 麻麻藤椒鱼. A traditional sichuan dish with fish filets (black fish) cooked in green sichuan peppercorn oil (with plenty of fresh and dried Sichuan peppercorn). If you want a true and authentic taste of Sichuan dish, this is a must-have! This is one of the non-spicy dishes, with plenty of fish filets and a taste of citrus zing with a slight numbing flavoring. Resturant located in a well hidden plaza right behind a driving range. It only has one outlet street into/out of the plaza. Parking wise, the plaza parking can be very busy during dinner time and weekends. You can always drive around to the back of the plaza as there is a parking structure with plenty of spaces. Definitely worth checking it out when you want to experience authentic Sichuan cuisine!

    6 of us came in on a Thursday when they opened around 12pm. I've been here once before but only remembered the food was spicy but tasted ok but expensive. the decoration is definitely high end, as is you've walked into a Chinese garden with fish pond and wood carvings everywhere. very beautiful. since one of our friend is a regular and loves this restaurant. she placed the order for all of us to share and mostly we've asked mild or less spicy. our favorite is the crispy fried pork intestines. THE best I've had ever. it's tasty, crispy, cleaned very well (not fatty inside) but not too spicy. The cauliflowers was also very popular as well. we loved every dish. Our only complaint is the shrimps were butterflied but not deveined so you can still see a black strip of vein on very piece of shrimp. we also ordered 2 different desserts and the waitress gave us an extra order of dessert as we were celebrating birthdays.

    I've been to this restaurant twice, and the food quality has been consistently excellent. I had another wonderful dining experience here tonight! The presentation of the sliced pork belly with cucumber, served hanging on a wooden rack, was absolutely stunning and unique. It paired perfectly with the spicy dipping sauce underneath. The shredded potato was also fantastic, perfectly crisp, light, and full of flavor. The last time I had Sichuan Boiled Fish was delicious. The fish was fresh and tender, and the broth was rich, flavorful, and infused with the wonderful aroma of Sichuan peppercorns. Everything we ordered was delicious. The ambiance was cozy, and the service was excellent. Everyone who works here is friendly, welcoming, and polite. I'll definitely be back. Five stars!

    If you're looking for bold Sichuan food with a great dining atmosphere, Mountain House is definitely worth checking out. The traditional interior decor is beautifully done and really sets the mood as soon as you walk in. The food itself is quite good and hits those signature spicy and numbing notes well. The Swing Pork Belly is a fun order mostly for the presentation, but the sliced pork and chili-garlic sauce definitely hold their own. The Fish In Sour Cabbage Soup is comforting--the broth strikes a nice tangy balance, and the fish was fairly tender. We also tried the Green Pepper Mao Xue Wang, which brought plenty of that authentic numbing heat, and the Ma-la Prawns, which had a nice, fiery kick.

    this place was chosen for me as a surprise and friend thought i would like the vibe and boyyyy were they right!! i really enjoyed the ambiance here and the food was amazing!!! like omg the koi fish i was so excited like the photos don't do this place justice!!! anyways the food was fire like we got sm i was like stop getting sm we aren't gonna eat all of dat and we didn't !! anyways i really liked the tofu cuz im a tofu monster and we got even more tofu and the swing pork belly was so creative and fire. the sauce was not mixed like the oil and sauce was separated so be aware and make sure to mix! thanks for the meal friend !! it so good! also service was really good and checked up on us!

    If you are craving authentic Szechuan cuisine, look no further than Mountain House in Rowland Heights. This restaurant is gorgeous and the food is absolutely AMAZING! It feels so relaxing when you're dining here - I cannot recommend this place enough. My favorite was the Lazi Chicken and their Mapo Tofu. The presentation for the Swing Pork Belly was beautiful but it wasn't what I liked best. The Steamed Fish was VERY fresh! Everything I ordered was all very good. The prices are inexpensive and you're also getting top notch service. Mountain House is a 10/10!

    Bonnie S.

    Mountain House in Rowland Heights, CA is absolutely gorgeous as if you are stepping into a Chinese Palace. Details and atmosphere is impeccable that simply brings joy to your experience. You are being served the most authentic Chinese cuisine such as Sauerkraut Fish Soup, Peking Style Beef Short Ribs, Teppan Garlic Shrimp, Mapo Tofu, Eggplant & String Beans, Kung Pao Chicken and Beef Fried Rice. Now I wonder if the new San Gabriel location will live up to the Rowland Heights one?

    Is their phone broken? I called the # on Yelp and Google like 10 times for the past 2 days, just trying to make a reservation but no one answers...

    How would you make a reservation for a group of 8 people? there is no option on the yelp waitlist or google reservation option. I tried calling but the number on google said they're not taking any calls because their voicemail box is not updated.

    I called 626-986-5555 and they answered it. I was able to make the reservation on the phone.

    Do they have non-spicy dishes?

    yes they do

    Do they have a private room or a section for a party of 20?

    I think so, saw private rooms on my way to the bathroom 🤔

    Hi can I bring my own wine? Thx

    Not really sure... but call them to ask... usually restaurant will ask for cork fee...

    Do they have dim sum?

    Yes ,there's corkage fees from 25 to 35dollars.

    Do they serve alcohols/cocktails?

    I've just been there and they do have alcohol. They have beer, soju, sake, wine, and cocktails.… 

    How long is a wait time?

    30 minutes

    Do they take reservations at this location?

    When we went last month they told me no reservations on weekends, including Friday. Ok other weekdays.

    Can they seat large groups?

    I think their largest table fits 8 people. After that you may need to split your groups or sit tighter in that area.

    Any vegan options? Is there cross contamination between vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes?

We ordered quite a bit for 3 people. We did well actually. Each dish came out one after another. I appreciate the quick food delivery. OMG, every single item was on point! Presentation was enticing.

Highly recommend. 1 Chengdu Zajiang Noodles - I'm not a big Sichuan fan, but this dish I like. Perfectly seasoned minced pork plus fried egg and bouncy chewy noodles mixed in bold, spicy, and savory sauce. YUM! 1 Pork Dumplings (12) - huge dumplings with flavorful pork filling, best bang for your buck choice! 1 Pot Stickers (6) - good size, lightly pan-fried, wished it was a bit more pan-fried that would give it more crispiness on the outside, still a good choice! 1 Toothpick Chicken - lots of small tender chicken chunks, got a spicy kick to it, yes it comes with toothpicks for use for grabbing your chicken, loved the fun concept! 1 Steamed Egg & Minced Pork - steamed egg was very smooth and jiggly, minced pork was flavored well, perfect combo! 1 Sugar Glutinous Rice Cake (6) - nice and chewy, brown sugar was not overly sweet, highly recommend for dessert! 1 Mung Bean Soup (cold) - I can taste a light touch of mung bean, but not enough for me to say WOW, glad I tried it
