    Food: the noodles were super disappointing. Stale. No flavor. Tried their special fish maw noodle and got 2 Morchella mushroom and 2 fish maw pieces, and some cordyceps. They were the only two that stood out. The rest felt like all thrown in. The cold yellow chicken was icky and super salty. Do not recommend. Bad quality food. Avoid. Service: neutral. Not good not bad. Ambiance: big, roomy place. Surprisedly lots of people...

    Highly recommend the delicious , tender, and authentic Hainanese chicken. Must order. We had 1/2 chicken. The chicken soup was very tasty soup and costed $1. The stirred fried green bean with minced meat was good texture with flavors. Ordered a whole Hainanese chicken for our Lunar New Year's Eve dinner

    I picked up the Hanan chicken plate from here. I liked how it came with a salad, pickles and peanuts. They were all very tasty. However, I was not a big fan of the chicken. The issue was there was barely any chicken, it was mostly bones and I was not a fan of the taste either. Perhaps it's an acquired taste and...I don't have it. Ended up junking the meal.

    Laksa - spicy good
    Ronny T.

    Haven't been for awhile and was craving laksa. Still good. The menu may be a bit challenging for those less adventurous eaters. It all looks good to me tbh! Service is efficient though I would have liked water refill earlier. Basic decor and vibe but it works if you happen to have a craving for laksa!

    Fish cake and mushroom stir fry

    Love their Hainan chicken, vegetable dishes and coconut jelly. Been here about 5x over 2 years and they are consistent. Probably best Hainan chicken and coconut desert (when they still have it!) I've had in the US. Build your own noodle soup is less than $10 and good, we like the Laksa. Really like the choy sum in soup and squid and bean sprout stir fry. Curry is also surprising solid.

    Tried this place twice. Saw their big poster from outside the restaurant about their Fish Maw Chicken noodle soup, I decided to try right away. Came right after store opened so no wait time. My suggestion is to arrive early or late otherwise once you hit lunch hour, it will be a long wait. Fish Maw Chicken Soup: Soup was awesome, very rich in flavor. They not only give you two big piece of fish maw, the fish maw was very thick and flavor was all absorbed to it. They gave a lot of mushrooms and other vegetables to enhance the flavor of the soup. Noodles are all right, not too outstanding when the soup takes all the credit. Chicken is Hainan style, and meat is chewy, not the kind of chewy you cannot eat. It's the fresh meat kind of chewy. Overall, this dish is very tasty, service is great, the restaurant is clean and will come back again if I have a chance.

    3% cash discount

    Grabbed some takeout for lunch the other day and it was a tasty experience. Attempted to order online and the Chowbus website now features a $1 convenience fee in addition list price on items. Called in and was able to get their hainan chicken noodle combo special for $13.95 without the $1 convenience fee. My order was ready for pickup within ~10 minutes. Parking is plentiful in the private strip mall lot. The hainan chicken noodle combo features 1/4 hainan chicken served with a tasty soup broth and plenty of noodles, perfect for a couple lunches. The restaurant features 3% cash discount except menu items on special.

    We were looking for a place and saw Special Noodle Soup. At first we thought it was the chain restaurant called Special Noodle, but it was completely different. But, I am glad we ended up trying it. The parking lot was decent sized. But can get crowded as it shares the same lot with the Indian Market. The restaurant is fairly decent sized. The decor is simple and humble. It has another area that has plenty of room for larger parties. The have two separate multi-user men and women restrooms. The service is friendly, attentive, and patient. Our friend ordered the Chiu Chow Brined Free Ranged Duck over Rice (3/5). He wished the duck was served hot vs the room temp. My wife ordered the Original Chicken Broth with flat rice noodles (4/5). All soups served with corn, spinach, and mushrooms. It came out and after one sip, she said, "oh, we are coming back!" I ordered the Signature Hainan Chicken over Rice (4/5). The woodear & cucumber salad was so good! The Hainan rice was pretty good. The cold chicken was flavorful and the ginger scallion sauce didn't have the oil as I expected. But still tasty. Oh, the roasted cocktail peanuts were crunchy and toasty. I'd get this again! Honey Citron Drink (no pic) - sure I could get a whole jar myself and make this but I was prepping for our outdoor concert at the Mountain Winery. I'll be back to try their soups. Support your local business.

    Hainan Chicken, Choy Sum in Supreme Broth
    Hannah C.

    The perfect comfort food spot! I come here too frequently, and every time, I leave feeling satisfied. I usually visit for dinner, and I am always able to find a table, even when there are quite a few customers. The restaurant is unassuming, and the service is efficient. The food is incredibly delicious! I absolutely love the signature hainan chicken. The chicken itself is so tender and pairs well with the accompanying savory ginger-scallion sauce. I also love the vegetable noodle soup, called "Choy Sum in Supreme Broth." The broth is unbelievably umami, and the dish is packed with vegetables. Every time I feel like eating reliably delicious Chinese food, I come here!

    Delicious C11 Beef Satay Combo with meats, mushrooms, and veggies. Quite spicy
    AiFen S.

    My friends from out of town were visiting, and the kiddos love Chinese noodle soup. I remember seeing this store with lines out of it every time I would drive by on my way to errands in the area, so we quickly settled on it. We arrived around 11:30 and there were plenty of tables available. They do have a QR code to order, but the waitress kindly gave us menus and the kiddos went to town looking at all their options. The waitress also fielded our questions about the best broths for kids who like spicy (Chiu Chow was the recommendation) as well as what were the ingredients in certain dishes. I read the reviews and remember that the Hainan chicken was praised so we ordered a half Hainan chicken for 3 adults and 3 kiddos to share along with a noodle bowl each. I opted for the Beef Satay Combo. Shortly after the food arrived. The waitress was thoughtful about asking if we needed any sharing bowls or plates and brought that out quickly. We dug in and enjoyed our food which was plentiful. I really enjoyed the broth and the fixings inside were generous. I ended up needing to take half of it home. The chicken was also delicious, and I would definitely come back to do a takeout order of that. During the time we ate, the restaurant quickly filled up. I do want to note that at one point a dog barked very loudly which did startle us as we could not see where the dog was (it appeared to be in the carrier). When we left the restaurant had a huge line, so I am glad we decided to eat an earlier lunch. Would definitely recommend and am looking forward to coming here to fulfill my Hainan chicken and noodle soup craving!

    C04 Chicken Combo
    Kim l.

    Friend wanted to try this place. We headed over for lunch. It was empty. We grabbed a seat and ordered two of the c04 soup Hainan chicken combo $13.50. It came out quick. The soup looked a bit unappealing, like it was thrown together. The broth was light and good. Lots of noodles. Chicken was nicely presented and was a tad salty but tasty. Ps 3% cash discount doesn't apply to items that are specials.

    Seasoned Wood ear mushroom salad
    Da Kat A.

    The decor of this place is basic. The food is authentic Chiu-Chow cuisine. Been here a few times. Brought friends over and they like it too. They have "Design your own soup", meaning you can pick your soup base, types of noodles, protein and veggies. This is good if you want everything customized for your own choice. The Brined Tofu is delicious. It's served hot. The outside (skin) is crunchy and inside is soft. I recommend eat the tofu as soon as this dish arrives while they're so still crunchy and hot. If you wait later, the tofu will soak up the sauce and no longer crunchy. The Signature Hainan Chicken Rice and the Chicken Combo are similar, except one is with rice on a plate and the other one is with rice noodles. It's nice they serve the Hainan chicken on the side. Both dishes are excellent. The Chiu Chow Brined Free Range Duck is one of their signature dishes and it's excellent. The Beef Combo Noodles is good. The soup is very flavorful. Noodles are cooked well and the various beef items (meat, beef balls...etc) taste good. The Braised Beef Briskets and Tendon combo over rice is ok. The tendons are soft and nice but the briskets are a bit chewy. The Five-Spiced beef tripes is just ok, except it's on the salty side. For vegetables, we ordered the Seasoned Woodear Mushroom Salad which is good. However, the steamed lettuce in soy-garlic sauce is disappointing. The soy garlic sauce isn't that good.

    至尊花膠雞湯米線
    Mark L.

    This rating is particularly on the new item 至尊花膠雞湯米線. In short, don't bother. The soup was a disappointment. Nothing like the name describe besides using chicken soup and I tasted the 海南雞飯's soup and it's WAAAAAAAAY better. 花膠 texture like 豬皮. It doesn't taste the same as 花膠. The special mushroom didn't taste good neither. Waste of money. Having said that, the 海南雞飯 still very good.

    Their soup noodle is very tasty, but parking lot is very small. It close to a Indian supermarket, so the parking lot is always full.

The combination of meat, veggies and the exterior crispy pancake created such an outstanding tasting effect. The lamb dish had one of the most tender meats I've tasted. The brown sugar sticky rice cake was soft inside and hard outside; with just the right amount of sweetness. Service was ok. They should've been kinder and more grateful.

There was no line for us to be seated. I was able to flag down a server to seat us since they seem to be extremely busy cleaning tables and servicing others. The hotpots are full of ingredients and the broth has always been tasty. Unfortunately, the meats seem to be overcooked. Prices have been going up over the years where only the monthly special is enticing for the value. Servers were friendly and checked in on us, but it took 25 minutes for our food to show up at our table after we ordered. The only consistent experience I've had are the oranges at the end of the meal. They are always amazingly sweet, juicy, and comes off the peel easily. I don't usually enjoy oranges, but I love the ones HomeEat offers! Will be back if in the area, but hope kitchen service will be quicker in the future.

Surprisingly, the normal Dan Dan noodles ("special sesame dry noodle") were quite bad. The beef and tendon noodle soup is not bad, decent for when I was sick. There is a "beef and tendon noodle soup" as well as a "beef only noodle soup" on the menu - you might think the beef only one would be better value and have more meat, I ordered both to see the difference - even though the meat only one does have more meat, the meat is more tough and very hard to chew. So the beef with tendons soup has way better texture and more tender meat pieces

After placing our order, the food came out relatively quick. We ordered 2 beef noodle soups, the works, and 2 beef rolls. Starting off with the beef rolls, these came out cold. I heard that this is what this place was known for. The meat in our rolls wasn't even lukewarm and the pancakes came out super soggy almost like they didn't even try. Please tell me how the pancake look brown and crispy on the outside and still comes out cold and not crispy at all. My nephew even said they weren't crispy and he's 3. The lady told us that the sauce on the inside was salty and that's why they don't give extra and man was she right. 1/5* The beef noodles soup itself flavor wise was good and portion wise it was good for $21, but my noodles had no chew to them at all. I was attempting to pick them up with chopsticks and they would just break into pieces. They do give a decent amount of beef though in this. 2.5/5* for the flavor but don't expect much from the noodles. Same thing went for the works, it was a peanut buttery sauce that the lady claimed wasn't spicy, but my parents noticed that it had a kick to it even though they asked for it not to be spicy. The egg is a nice touch but not too sure if it's worth the price. Noodle consistency was the same as the beef noodle soup. 2.5/5*
