chow mein, orange chicken, General Tso's Chicken, Jalapeno Chicken, shrimp, Mixed Vegetables Tofu, fried rice
Karen T.

dang it was really peaceful here! I enjoyed the vibes and food. The worker was really friendly, and the food was delicious and affordable! I liked the general tso chicken and chow mein, but everything was really good! Still have to try the chicken wing and giant ass prawn! lol

Yummy orange chicken

I absolutely love this Chinese food spot! The service is amazing they're incredibly friendly, welcoming, and so generous with their portions. The ambience is also really nice, and they have plenty of seating, so it's a great place to sit down and enjoy your meal. The food is delicious, and they even let me sample the General Chicken before ordering it it was AMAZING! I've already been here twice and will definitely keep coming back whenever I'm craving Chinese food. Highly recommend!

The service was nice. I ordered the 1 item combo plate orange chicken 1/2 and 1/2 rice and noodle. Everything was good the portion are enough to save for later.

Thai Tea, Jalapeño Chicken, Bbq Pork, chow mein, fried rice

All the food is fresh. Friendly service, knowledgeable staff. Looking forward to this place being around the community for a long time! Remodel of the building is impeccable and looks pristine. Kudos to the owner for putting in the TLC. Come out and show your love and support to this local gem in the community.

Sarah was a great host during our visit. Enjoyed a first visit for some lunch with a friend. Inside seating available clean and organized. As of now it's pay by the lb. Fill your to go container with as much protein as you'd like. If ordering by the lb you can fill your plate yourself. If ordering a combo plate staff will fill tray for you just let them know which entrees and sides you'd like. Single, double or three item combos also available. Try all the entrees and find your favorite. Thai tea was great not overly sweet having just the right balance. Located right off the 91fwy exit McKinley North. Make quick right into shopping center head straight back. Same shopping center as 85° bakery. Plenty of parking right in front.

Insane value. Super clean and very considerate staff. Highly recommended. Awesome prices. Food was fresh with high quality ingredients.

Menu

I recently came across this small Chinese spot and was honestly pleasantly surprised. It's run by a husband and wife team. I spoke with the owner Sarah and you can tell right away how much love and effort they put into their restaurant. The food is made fresh daily and you can taste the difference. Nothing was overly sweet, salty, or oily. The flavors reminded me of simple home style cooking, the kind of food your mom would make. The broccoli was bright green and still had a nice bite to it, the chow mein noodles were soft but not soggy, and the shrimp had a light crisp texture. They have a hot bar where you can pick exactly what you want. There were options like chow mein, fried rice, broccoli, shrimp, mushrooms, and different chicken dishes. When I came around 5pm right before the dinner rush they had just run out of orange chicken. Sarah offered to make a fresh batch if I wanted some which I thought was really kind. Of course I said yes and it came out hot and crispy. The pricing is very reasonable. Food is charged by the pound at $6.29. Mine came out to around $9 and the portion is big enough that I can easily split it into two meals. I already have rice at home so this works out perfectly. You know those days when you don't want to cook but still want something warm and comforting and not fast food. This is that kind of place. The restaurant is clean and looks newly remodeled compared to the previous owner. I like that you can choose exactly what you want and only pay for what you actually take. Another really sweet gesture was Sarah giving me a Thai tea on the house. It was creamy and refreshing and honestly made my day. For anyone wondering about location, it is in the same plaza as Carrot and Daikon and there is plenty of parking which makes it easy to stop by. Sarah also mentioned they are thinking about adding malatang in the future which would be exciting if it happens. She plan to add more items to the menu Overall this place feels like a little hidden gem. Good food, fair prices, and very kind owners. I will definitely be back.

Stopped in for some lunch and been wanting to check this place out since they opened not long ago. Love the options you get such as pay by the weight. By that option, you get to pick and choose what you want at the bar and how much u want as well! They also have bowl and flavored drinks options as well. Definitely a hidden gem and a place to check out! Say hi to Sarah that works here and explained all the ordering options you have. Very nice lady!

Harrison H.

Bumping this place for the tasty and cheap food, good protein options, and potatoes! Potatoes are the so delicious and theyre a great source of complex carbs. Literally the sweetest lady that helps you out as the owner. Very clean and very chill place to eat after a long day at work! If you want, bring cash to support them with tips too!

Thai tea and food plates

By pound or plate, anyway prices are good! Food is great. Thai tea delicious. I got the rice noodles as a base and everything else went well with it. Healthy option with food flavor options. Customer service 10/110

Elisa P.

Was really craving Chinese food, and came across this location. I loved that they had amazing options of food and that their other option was either to pay for a plate w/ choice of sides or by pound. What an amazing idea I went with paying by the pound and wow I was able to have a lil of everything with that option. My craving was totally satisfied. Customer service was amazing really friendly, the location is clean and organized. I will definitely come back. I'll be recommending to family and friends.

About 1.35 lbs

I don't think I've ever been so excited about trying out a new restaurant! This place is awesome and I hope it does well. We were hesitant to come here at first because we thought it's just spicy food, but they have a little of everything, even seafood. It looks like a buffet, you select the food you want, as much or as little, and then you get charged by the pound. This is great because sometimes I'll want to order something but try other items. The owners are so friendly, Sara even said if we wanted to try something she would give us samples. Sara and her husband Yang just opened this restaurant 17 days ago. We had been to this location before and the new owners have cleaned up very nicely. It is so bright and spacious. I like that there is not much on the trays, that tells me the food is fresh and they're constantly cooking to replace the food. Our two orders came up to 2.50 lbs which was a little over $15, what a steal! Our favorites were the curry chicken, coconut shrimp, salt and pepper shrimp, potstickers, kung pao chicken and sesame balls (fresh and steaming hot!) You can even order "Special Bowls" with 1 side and 1 item. I don't ever think I've written a review this long, that's how much I like this place!

Melinda H.

As soon as you walk in you are greeted, the place is super clean and the food smells amazing! All of the food is fresh and hot. The price was GREAT! Think of it as a bufffet to go! You choose how much you want & you can mix and match everything! Food was delicious. Andddd let's not forget the thai tea & milk tea we were gifted. Definitely will be back!

Wow a full plate and Drink! So fresh, delicious and filling for $10!

Wings were flavorful, well cooked, and served fresh. It was my first time here and I was a bit…read moreworried I would not get the quality wings I'm used to, but this place came through. Server even threw in some fries with our take out order, which needs a little more crisp to them. Had to wait a bit but it was worth it. Ordered 40 pieces of wings and none were left at the end of dinner. Sorry I was not able to include photos, wings didn't last too long on the table. Maybe next time.

Went for lunch and the place was absolutely dead. Between ordering and receiving my food it was…read moreabout 25 minutes, even though it was dead. Positives: Chicken was crispy, batter/coating was made in house. Not some Sysco crud. Hot sauce is uniquely good. A little sour, sweet, and spicy all together. Mids: Took 25+ minutes to get my food. Fry portion size was quite small. Batter/Coating just needs a little more salt to bring out the flavor. Negatives: Chicken was overcooked and stringy. It took the guy at the counter another 5ish minutes to get the food to me after it came out of the kitchen. I was hoping to find a new lunch spot, but I can't go back because I'll be late getting back to the office if the service continues to be as slow. Simply 5 fewer minutes in the fryer would have made a better product, and got me back to the office on time. ^^^ Trying to give constructive feedback so they can improve. :)

1 STAR -- BUG IN MY FOOD, DISMISSIVE STAFF, DISRESPECTFUL OWNER, AND DISTURBING COMMENTS ABOUT EBT…read moreCUSTOMERS I visited GoodFellas Cafe today, and this was hands down one of the most appalling dining experiences I've ever had. What happened at this establishment raises serious concerns about food quality, customer service, and, most importantly, the attitude of the person running the business. During our meal, I discovered what appeared to be a bug in my food. Naturally, I brought this to our waitress's attention, expecting some concern, an apology, or at least an effort to address the situation. Instead, the waitress responded with absolutely no empathy or concern. She simply stated that she had no control over the situation and would get the owner. Her tone and demeanor were completely dismissive, as though finding a possible insect in a customer's meal was nothing worth being concerned about. Unfortunately, things only got worse when the owner arrived. Rather than acknowledging our concern or making any meaningful attempt to resolve the situation, the owner insisted it wasn't a bug and told us that if we didn't like it, we could leave. But what he said next was even more disturbing. The owner proceeded to tell us that he wasn't there for "give outs" and made comments about not accepting EBT customers for this very reason. Let me be perfectly clear: We never presented an EBT card, never mentioned government assistance, and never asked for free food or money. We were paying customers who simply brought a legitimate food-quality concern to the restaurant's attention. Why would an owner immediately associate a customer complaint with EBT recipients or people looking for handouts? The assumptions and apparent prejudice behind those remarks were astonishing. What should have been a simple opportunity to address a food complaint turned into an unnecessarily hostile and degrading encounter. And that's what makes this experience so troubling. Finding what appeared to be a bug in my food was concerning enough. But watching both an employee and the owner demonstrate such a complete lack of empathy, accountability, and professionalism was arguably worse. Restaurants make mistakes. Food preparation isn't perfect. But customers should be able to raise concerns without being dismissed, insulted, or subjected to inappropriate assumptions about their financial circumstances. The owner sets the standard for the entire establishment, and based on what I experienced today, that standard is deeply disappointing. I genuinely question how an establishment can expect to maintain the public's trust when a food-quality complaint is handled with this level of hostility and disregard. I encourage prospective customers to consider this experience before choosing to dine here. No customer should have to tolerate this kind of treatment simply for questioning what was served on their plate. I will never return to GoodFellas Cafe, and based on my personal experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone.

We've always loved The Brass Tap in Corona. The staff is amazing, the food is great, and we've had…read moreso many fun nights there. We will absolutely continue coming back, just unfortunately not as often as we used to. We were regular Thursday night customers because we absolutely loved Music Bingo. My husband, my two daughters, and I would come together as a family almost every Thursday. It became something we genuinely looked forward to each week. Thursdays used to be packed, sometimes so crowded that it was hard to find a seat. There was such a fun atmosphere, with different tables bantering with each other, laughing, competing, and getting into the music. We enjoyed it so much that we even brought prizes for the host to give away. It was more than just playing bingo; it was the whole experience and energy of the night. Unfortunately, since the new Music Bingo host took over, the experience has completely changed. We even tried talking to him about it, and he told us that as long as he is running Music Bingo, he will never use the app and will continue doing everything on paper. He uses the same card for the entire two-hour game, which means that even if you arrive late, you essentially have no chance of winning. That takes away a huge part of what made the game exciting and competitive. I do want to be fair and say that we know he also hosts trivia on Tuesdays, and we actually like his approach to trivia. His style seems to work well for that format. Unfortunately, that same approach just doesn't seem to vibe with Music Bingo. Music Bingo needs a different kind of energy, interaction, and flair, and sadly, that has been missing. The host has also been rude to us when we've tried to discuss our concerns, which has made the experience even less enjoyable. The difference in the Thursday night atmosphere is very noticeable. Thursdays used to be packed and full of energy, and now the place is often nearly empty. The fun atmosphere and camaraderie we used to look forward to are simply gone. We understand that he runs the game on his own and is entitled to run it how he wants. At the end of the day, though, the format and the overall vibe have changed enough that our family no longer wants to make Thursday nights a regular part of our week. That's especially disappointing because this was something all four of us genuinely enjoyed doing together. We are still giving The Brass Tap five stars because the restaurant itself, the food, and the rest of the staff have always been fantastic. We will definitely come back for those things. We just won't be coming back as often for Music Bingo. Hopefully, at some point, Music Bingo can become the fun, lively, interactive experience it used to be. We would love to have a reason to look forward to Thursday nights again.

The one I wanted, they ran out, but they had a weihenstephaner hefeweissbier which is usually a go to and a chocolate hef. The chocolate hef was definitely unique. Came in during a world up game and had plenty of TVs to watch the games. The first bartender that served us wasn't very nice or talkative, but the second one was the one that gave me a taster of the chocolate hef. He was nice and checked on me and my friend the whole time we were there. It is a big space and plenty of seating. They had a good menu for lunch and dinner and good specials for happy hour. I tried out the blackened cod fish tacos which isn't on the happy hour menu but it was okay. Overall, it was good and would come back again.
