I'm not usually a fan of Chinese food (I tend to get a lot of headaches) - but wow, yum! My optometrist is located in the complex next to Tian Tian and I had a bit of a busy day, so placed an order through their website for pick up. I was happy that it was ready in about 10 minutes! I opted for one of the lunch bento boxes with orange chicken and Mongolian beef. I preferred the chicken; the beef cut wasn't to my liking - but the chicken was so flavorful! The combo was also served with white rice. I was able to make about a meal and a half out of it, which I appreciated. There are a decent amount of tables inside; you can also order for take out. Looking forward to trying other dishes! 2026: 33/100 read more

Tian Tian Eatery - Lunch Bento Boxes - Chinese Near Me - Ladera Ranch, California

I leave this review to even out my original visit. We were so excited to visit again and bring our family. Unfortunately, this was a very different experience. The bento boxes were full - definitely not skimping on portions - but the flavor was not the same as the first visit. The orange chicken did not have much flavor. Same with the teriyaki chicken and edamame. I am surprised at such a huge swing from the first visit. Hopefully a one off. The couple that work there are very sweet and I hope they do well moving forward. read more

We got there in the earlier lunch hour so the restaurant was quiet but cute. We were both hungry so we ordered a rich and famous roll, a Philly roll, orange chicken, hot and sour soup. We were served cabbage complementary dish and it was good. Both of the rolls were good. The hot and sour soup was excellent. Orange chicken was tasty. All in all, we had a good experience and we will come back for other dishes. read more

Tian Tian Eatery is an Asian restaurant that offers Chinese, Japanese, and Thai dishes. It's a casual place with about 10 tables. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They also offer lunch and dinner bento box specials. Rainbow roll ($15) - This was basically a California roll topped with salmon, tuna, and avocado. Unfortunately the quality of the fish was the type one finds at the grocery store. It wasn't very fesh. Red curry chicken ($15) - This had strong coconut flavors and was just ok taste wise. Nothing really stood out. Beef broccoli ($15) - The beef was tender, but it was just average taste wise. I've had better elsewhere. Cumin chicken ($15) - This stir fried chicken dish had onions, bell peppers, and great cumin flavoring. It was my favorite dish of the meal. Overall, I think the restaurant should stick to one type of Asian cuisine so they can make deliver better products. Service was on point, but I doubt I would visit again. read more

Someone recommended this place as a great Chinese lunch spot, so off I went to check it out! They're located in Ladera Ranch in a medium-sized shopping plaza, across from condos and Montessori. There's a decent amount of parking spaces, but I can see how it would get filled quickly during busy hours. It's a somewhat small restaurant with several chairs around a bar area, and several tables to sit and eat. I ordered my food online, and it was ready in less than 30 min. I was happy to see that they offer Lunch Bentos for $14.99. You can select 2 items from a list of 14 choices. It also comes with rice. I ordered the orange chicken and General Tso's chicken. Both items were very flavorful, however they tasted too much alike. Next time I won't order 2 chicken dishes at the same time. What I loved most about the Lunch Bentos is that you can order them gluten free for $2 extra, which is what I did. I couldn't tell that it was GF as it tasted just like the regular thing, but they probably swapped out the wheat flour in the batter for GF flour, and probably used GF soy sauce in the orange sauce. That's just my guess. I will definitely return to try other items! Very excited that there's a tasty Chinese eatery in the area. read more

This is the second time that we tried this place, the first one is during the soft opening it was bad but since it's their soft opening I gave it another try and wow it's still bad. The wait is always so long even for pick up order which I ordered AHEAD OF TIME, the taste for the price is just okay. Second time is enough, I wouldn't come back. read more

Clean friendly place. Small business, husband & wife run. Husband & I opted for dine in but is take out friendly too! Everything is so flavorful but the chili oil wontons have to be my favorite! Got the chili oil wontons, sweet & sour soup, vegetable lo mein, and of course orange chicken. Got 2 fried rolls, not my favorite personally but the owner did come up and ask if we were sureee if we wanted 2 fried ones. I'll definitely try a fresh one next time. SUPPORT LOCAL & COME TO TIAN TIAN! read more

Stopped by during happy hour and honestly loved everything we tried. Happy hour is Monday-Thursday from 3-6 pm and includes their house white wine (Brady's White Blend), which was crisp, smooth, and super easy to drink. We ordered the orange chicken and broccoli beef and both were so fresh and flavorful. The chili oil wontons were a standout -- made in house with just the right amount of heat that doesn't overpower anything. They also brought out a complimentary house salad with fresh cabbage, ginger, sesame oil, and more, which was such a nice surprise. We finished our meal finding out the spot is owned by the sweetest husband and wife duo, Liu and Terri, and you can really feel the care they put into both the food and the experience. Such a great find in Ladera Ranch and definitely a place we'll be coming back to read more

This is a super nice couple that make some really nice Chinese/Japanese food. It can be a little hard to find, as it's blended in with a bunch of medical business. Their prices are very reasonable with many varieties to choose from. I recommend the tempura, orange chicken and the Mongolian beef. Very quiet here If you're in the area...go check them out!! read more

Hospitality is amazing!! The owners always greet you with a smile. They make you feel as if you are eating in their home. The food is cones to the table promptly and is always delicious. Cute inside to the restaurant with parking right out front. Can't say enough positive things about the establishment. You will love everything about it - my granddaughter is celiac, and they are always able to accommodate her dietary needs! Which is a big plus in our book! read more

So, we initially went to Franco's to celebrate a great appraisal inspection but found it wasn't open for another hour. Remembered that this place, Tian Tian had great reviews so we opted to check this establishment out for late lunch. Easy to find, inside was clean, bright, and organized. Owner Teri, greeted us right away with a smile as we sat at a booth/table. We ordered boba drinks and appetizer (calamari). The drinks and appetizer was good. Our entrees were: Chicken Lo Mien, Combo Tian Tian Fried Rice, Miso Soup, Orange Chicken, and Beef Broccoli. All I all, very tasty, serving sizes was good for 4 people and had enough to have left overs to take home. Teri was so friendly and made small talk with us and made us feel welcomed. My only wish is if they could move closer to the main hub of the Mercantile East area on Antonio Pkwy and Crown Valley. This is truly a gem and hope more folks give them a chance and support their family-owned business. If you're craving Panda, stop and get your fix at Tian Tian. You won't be disappointed! read more

I tried this place after reading reviews on Yelp, and also liked the idea of an Asian fusion, but I thought it was just okay. I got the lunch bento box and the portions were small for the price. Seemed odd to me how it was plated too. The food also was okay. The Kung Pao chicken didn't have a lot of veggies which usually it does and the flavor was alright. The CA roll was okay as well. The cucumber salad, which was an appetizer was a good size portion compared to the bento box, which is interesting. The taste was good, more vinegar-based. All in all, as said, it was okay but the bento box was not worth the price for what you get. read more

Tian Tian Eatery is a wonderful find. This husband and wife team from Hunan, China clearly puts heart and skill into their cooking. I stopped in for lunch and was genuinely impressed. The hot & sour soup was perfectly balanced, comforting, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The Thai spicy chicken had just the right amount of heat, great depth of flavor, and was cooked beautifully. Portions were satisfying, and the prices are very reasonable for the area. Service was pleasant and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. It was an easy, relaxed, great lunch, and I'll definitely be back. Now the only question is, what do I try next time? Maybe a Hunan classic like cumin beef, spicy beef and scallop, or one of their sushi dishes. Whatever it is, I'm confident it'll be delicious. Interior is modern and clean, the owners were constantly sweeping the floor and making sure everything was tidy. Highly recommend supporting this local spot! read more

THE MOST ORIGINAL, DELICIOUS AND AMAZING ASSORTMENT OF ASIAN THEMED DISHES THAT I HAVE EVER DISCOVERED!! Each of the items I tried were original and incredibly tasty creations that I've NEVER found ANYWHERE!!!! From the complimentary Cabbage Salad (think heat, vinegar and sesame) to the original Crunchy 2 in 1 Roll ~ to the phenomenal Mango Tango Roll ~ each was unlike anything I have ever found anywhere. Definitely a 12 on a Scale of 10. The outstanding service matched or exceeded the exceptional food in this brightly utilitarian establishment. I can't wait to explore the rest of their options - and look forward to the Peony Pad Thai, their riff on one of the most popular (Chinese version) dishes featured in their sister restaurant outside of Columbus Ohio. SO HAPPY I DISCOVERED Tian Tian!! read more

Good find in Ladera Ranch area. Needed to grab lunch for in between basketball games just up the street. We ordered the ZHa jiang, dan dan and a wonton soup. My son loved the flavor of the Zha jiang and my husband loved the dan dan, only complaint was the noodles did not seem authentic. The wonton soup was simple and filling would order again. They give you a complimentary cabbage salad that had such good flavor, I am still thinking about it and would go back just for that LOL. Service was stand out, the lady working was just so sweet and accomadating. There is a lot of seating inside and outside. The restaurant and restrooms were clean. read more

My new favorite Asian restaurant in south OC! It was a cold night and didn't feel like cooking so I treated myself to take out. There's convenient parking right in front of the restaurant and you feel like you're in Asia as soon as you step in. It feels like modern Manila or Taipei. The owner was very sweet and gave a good recommendation for Kung Pao chicken so I decided to try it. I also order the chicken fried rice. It didn't take long at all to receive my food. When I got home I pleasantly surprised. The Kung Pao was so dang good I had to stop myself over eating. The chicken fried rice was equally addictive. The chicken was fresh and well seasoned. The veggies were crunchy and the rice was soothing. I'm ruined I can't go back to Panda Express. Thank you Tian Tian for giving the Ladera/Rancho Mission Viejo area some flavor!!! read more

Currently has a holiday promo or buy a $100 gift card, get a $20 free gift card. Complimentary cabbage salad plate for each person- so delicious and addicting. I'd like to know the recipe. They said vinegar sesame chili oil garlic and ginger. Deep fried sweet potato roll is excellent. Looked like a salmon roll. Handmade beef noodle soup is pretty good, asked for not spicy but still came out spicy. Very tasty, love the thick handmade noodles. Mongolian beef is great, I like the onion half cooked and still crunchy. Hot and sour soup is good. Wonton soup also nice and comforting. Definitely need to try everything on the menu. Very sweet lady and gentlemen working here! read more

Great takeout spot in Ladera with a variety of different Asian cuisines. They have in-person dining, but we always get takeout here. Our food is always ready on time and tastes freshly made. We love their tempura and have a few good different entrees like the combination lo mein and General Tso's chicken. Definitely worth a try! read more

Have gotten takeout twice and it hit the spot both times! Love having this place just up the street from family. Got the dan dan noodles, green beans, wontons, general tsao's chicken, and mongolian beef. Was tons of food for the price, so we had 3 more servings leftover after 3 of us ate. Everything was so flavorful and fresh! The only thing I wouldn't get again was the mongolian beef - the flavor wasn't as deep as I was expecting, and it was mostly onions. Would get everything else again! Can't wait to come back. read more

Took the place of the old Forte Mediterranean Bistro. Wasn't sure what to expect. The menu is Chinese and Thai food. Every thing exceeded expectations. The Lo mein was good. They can make the mapo tofu without pork. It was pretty good. Tian tian chicken and Thai Spicy chicken were also excellent. The Szechuan green beans were also really good. Will have to try more things as the menu is pretty large. read more

My son and I were looking for some delicious Chinese food for lunch and we stopped upon this place and it was amazing. The owner was very welcoming and kind.

I really wanted to support this place after first discovering them on social media, but unfortunately my experience has only gotten worse. My first visit to Tian Tian Eatery was disappointing due to service. It was clear the owner was trying to do everything themselves without any help, and it showed, service was extremely slow and disorganized. I decided to give them a second chance, thinking I could avoid the service issues by ordering takeout. That turned out to be a mistake. The dumplings I ordered as an appetizer were lukewarm at best, borderline cold. Even worse, I ended up dealing with a pretty bad stomach issue in the middle of the night after eating there. I hate leaving negative reviews, especially for local businesses, but consistency and food safety matter. After two poor experiences, I won't be returning. read more

We ordered food to go, excited to see another Asian restaurant in the neighborhood. It looks like a cute family owned restaurant. We ordered all kinds of different dishes to try this time around and they didn't disappoint. The food was delicious and we pretty much liked everything.

Welcome to Tian Tian, my new favorite Chinese/Pan Asian eatery. My wife and I had lunch there and met the owners, a lovely couple, originally from Central China. Tian Tian means "everyday", as in the cuisine is light enough to eat everyday, and I certainly saw that thread through our meal. The eatery will officially open on June 24th but is indeed currently open for business (closed on Tuesdays) and is adjacent to Xclusive, a fav Mexican restaurant of mine. We were greeted with a complimentary salad of cabbage with sesame oil, garlic and red pepper flakes that woke up the taste buds. We started with veggie rolls, followed by wonton soup and sweet and sour soup and both were light, fresh and outstanding. We shared a veggie lo mein dish with thin noodles that was also nicely light and fresh. They will have a liquor license in two weeks, serving beer and wine. There are only seven or so tables so bear that in mind but I imagine their takeout business will be brisk. I am looking forward to trying more of their dishes on subsequent visits. Welcome to the neighborhood Tian Tian! read more

Great food and good packaging as I order and pick it up and eat at home. They always have my order correct and on time. It's a family business and they rent it perfectly. Is the inside great to sit down and have dinner? It's OK, but that is beside the point of having great Chinese food in the entire ranch. The best around it! I will not go anywhere else. read more

Their food is really good! I ordered the House Special Beef Noodle and it was sooo good. You can order it either with rice noodle or their hand made round noodle. The serving is quite big. See photo for reference. My husband ordered the Minced Pork bowl with rice. You can order it with noodles if you want. The serving is quite big as well. He normally can eat a lot but he still had some left after. Well to be fair he had a small bowl of hot and sour soup too. They also gave us complimentary salad (or maybe it comes with the order?). It was the bomb! I never thought I would like a salad with chili but it's dried chili and not spicy at all. But it tastes amazing! We'll definitely come back here with the kids! The service is great too. They pay attention to the needs of their customers. The ambiance is aesthetic too! Dont think twice! Just come. :) read more

Food exceeded my expectations. It's flavorful, but not too strong. I got the orange and kung pao in bento box. Orange chicken isn't too sweet, and it's something I'd definitely order again. Kung pao was good, but I'd prefer more veggies instead of chicken. Food seemed healthy in the sense that it's not oily, too sweet or salty. Very close to perfection. Portion size was great, I'm sure no one can finish the rice and protein in a single meal. Pricing is good, but for what they offer I think it can a bit higher. I feel the protein in bento box can be cut down a bit (~20%) and replaced with veggies, rice should be 1/4th or 1/5th of what's given. read more

This is Ladera Ranch's new hidden gem! Tucked away on Corporate Drive this small family business offers lovers of Asian food everything they could want and more! We found it by looking for another restaurant and very happy that we did.

We are so lucky to have this new gem in Ladera Ranch! The orange chicken is hands down the best I've ever had--perfectly crispy, tangy, and bursting with flavor. We also tried the combo fried rice, Mongolian beef, and lettuce wraps, and every single dish was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Even the water was surprisingly refreshing and tasty. I always notice when a restaurant has good water and this place is certainly one to note. The owner, Terri, is a joy to meet--so warm, welcoming, and genuinely appreciative of her customers. She shared how thankful she is for all the love and support she's received from the Ladera community, and it really shows in the way she runs her restaurant. If you haven't been yet, go soon--you'll leave full, happy, and thankful to have a great new place in the community. read more

I'm not sure what was better - - the delicious flavors in each of the dishes we tried or the pleasant surprise of how clean tasting their water was when I took my first sip. However, neither the food nor the high quality refreshments were the best part of this AWESOME restaurant... the star of the show was most certainly Terri! She was kind, welcoming, attentive, and obviously takes pride in providing her customers with an enjoyable dining experience. My only regret is that it took us so long to give this new addition to Ladera a try. We're definitely going to be coming back regularly! read more

Food was great and the service was great. The restaurant was nice and clean ... a very nice little restaurant!

Ordered orange chicken, chicken/broccoli, and shrimp lo mein. First 2 were good but the lo mein noodles were fettuccine noodles. When I asked about it, I was told they are the typical noodles they use despite tasting like pasta and appearing very different than the online pictures. The shrimp were also very small than what other local restaurants use. read more
