My friend loves Asian food and never wants to eat anything else, so when I asked her where she…read morewanted to go for her birthday, she picked this place. We ordered the Big plate chicken to share, and let me tell you, it was phenomenal! The dish is a spicy chicken stew made with Sichuan peppercorns, cumin, and chili paste, and comes with handpulled noodles. It was my first time trying this type of Chinese-Uyghur crossover dish, and it definitely surpassed my expectations. The portion was incredibly generous as well, as the dish was more than enough for the two of us plus leftovers. All in all, our night out at Ma's Kitchen was a success! ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it.

She is seriously so sweet and makes the whole experience so much better. I got the jajangmyeon, which is honestly one of my favorite Korean Chinese dishes. The noodles were nice and chewy and there was plenty of sauce, which I love. Definitely a comforting meal when I'm craving jajangmyeon! They also have the classic sides like pickled radish and onions, and we got the glazed sweet potatoes too. Something else I noticed is that they have separate private party rooms! So definitely save this place for the next time you want to have a private dinner, family gathering, birthday, or even a baby shower. There's a good amount of space and the separate rooms make it feel a lot more private. Overall, good food and really great service. And another shoutout to Diane because she genuinely makes me want to come back!

The best jjajangmyeon I've ever had!!!…read more I placed a phone order for a regular size jjajangmyeon. It was huge for $14. I can definitely split this into a few meals. The jjajang sauce is SO good. It's not as sweet as other places which I prefer. It's savory and so tasty. The noodles are so good too. It doesn't become a huge block when you bring it home. Definitely adding this place to my rotation!

My friends and I visited mountain house for the first time, and Sherry was our server. She was…read moreincredibly friendly and attentive. She proactively asked about any food allergies or dietary restrictions and whether we could handle spicy food. She also recommended some of their most popular dishes, which was really helpful for first-time visitors. The beef slices wrapped in a pancake were my absolute favorite! Everything was delicious, and we had a great experience. Definitely give Sherry a shout-out for her excellent service!

Here, we had an excellent server - Alec - who was very attentive and friendly. The surroundings and ambience of this restaurant is very beautiful, too. The best place for authentic, albeit spicy, Sichuam food, such as la-zi chicken and beef sour soup!

Really excellent Chinese-Vietnamese food! I tried this place for the first time a few months ago…read moreand was very much impressed. Firstly, the service here is great and very quick. The food was for sure a standout! We were a large party and order a lot of items and also ordered from the set menu. The crab and lobster was amazing, as was the shaken beef, the noodles, the shrimp, and pretty much everything. I feel this place is the place to go if you have a large dining party, because the set menu will have something that everyone can enjoy. Overall, I liked it a lot and will definitely be back.

Craving for a lobster dish so this was the place !!…read moreExcellent service with a smile!! Not busy on 4th of July !! For a party of 4 we had a round table with a center large revolving lazy susan !! The House Special Lobster with Garlic Noodle was prepared perfectly with so much flavor, lobster meat is so tenderly sweet bursting with rich decadent savory flavors!!! Whole Garlic clove didn't taste fresh that were prepared with the Chinese Broccoli dish!! The Pepper & Salty Pork Chops were not cooked the way I had envisioned or used to !! They were fried without a light batter to keep meat moist!!! But surely will comeback for another round of the HOUSE LOBSTER SPECIAL!!

I came across this place while dining in local establishments and decided to try it out. This is…read moreworth trying out between the quality of food and price. Their individual bao are about 4 inches in diameter for $3 each. There is plenty of protein inside so it isn't just a bunch of bao. Bao itself is great. Try out the spicy chicken or braised pork. It has a nice spicy kick that balances flavor and spice. If you are looking for frozen bulk, they have many flavors available at a great price. They are nice enough to throw a bag of ice in as well so your stuff doesnt defrost as fast. The employees are your nice aunties with some top notch customer service. They really walk you through what they have and answer your questions before you order. Restaurant is spacious and clean.

[ PLACE ] Big lot but can be packed full on weekend nights. Additional parking in the rear. Restaurant is spacious with a lots of seating. [ VERDICT ] I don't really eat baos but this place pack their baos fat and is very affordable. I'll definitely come back to taste the other baos.

I will say that it was quite pricey, coming in at roughly $10 if I recall, and the crispy part had already gone a bit stale when we got ours at roughly 6ish PM, but to spare ourselves the actual trip and flight I would still say it was worth it.

Everything is made fresh to order right in front of you, and it was so cool getting to watch the entire process. The crepe itself was delicious and packed with so many different flavors and textures. There's a lot going on in every bite, but it all works together really well. My only small wish is that there were a little more protein, but otherwise I loved it. I find myself craving this pretty frequently now! Definitely worth trying if you're in the area. It's such a fun experience on top of being delicious, and I'd absolutely come back.

My family and I came over for lunch, and it was loud and crowded on a Sunday at about noon. We…read morechecked in and got a number. It took about ten minutes for us to get a booth table, but we were waiting inside. The staff member called numbers firstly in Cantonese then in English. After we sat down, the waiting line persisted past 1 pm. Similarly, the bustling loudness continued on during the course of our meal. Food arrived quickly, however. The price point for the delicious food is competitive. We got French-style filet mignon ($18.99), braised tofu in brown sauce ($14.99), chicken chow mein ($14.99), and a steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork ($5.99). A pot of rice was included in our meal. The steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork was a nice appetizer that arrived first. I enjoyed how the French-style filet mignon was garnished with Thai basil, black pepper, and ginger. The meat was flavorful and tender. The braised tofu in brown sauce was consistently hot on the inside. The delicious brown sauce soaked throughout the vegetables. The chicken chow mein didn't have a lot of sauce, but it was still delicious with a lot of meat included. Overall, it would be nice to visit again outside of a peak time because the food prices are competitive. The menu is expansive, and the breakfast selections look interesting. The atmosphere during the Sunday lunch peak time was consistently bustling. I think the restaurant started to play Chinese music loudly at random points so that people could finish dining more quickly.

You don't get AYCE rice, but the portions were still pretty substantial. The fish and beef stayed hot, and it was all packed in one of those keep warm bags. The crispy pork stayed crispy too! Ordering was pretty easy, just scan the QR code on the counter ( which we've already saved for easy at home ordering next time) or order online with an app, then pickup when it's done. We waited about 15 min I think and then we were out the door. Also, as proper Asians, we obviously saved the containers to reuse and they've been great.

The menu is also a little limited, with only a few choices. We also tried the cold fish skin appetizer, but unfortunately I wouldn't recommend it. The pieces were stuck together and the texture was quite tough and chewy. It tasted mostly spicy without much other flavor. It was very hot outside today, and unfortunately the AC inside didn't seem to be cooling the restaurant enough. Eating a hot and spicy fish dish while the restaurant was this warm made the meal a little uncomfortable. I think this would be much more enjoyable on a cooler day, or when the AC is working well. Service was average. Overall, the fish itself is definitely worth trying, but there are a few things that could be improved. 4 stars.
