    I finally tried Woon in Pasadena and ordered a few of their breakfast items: Beancurd Congee This was my favorite of the three. The congee was comforting and super flavorful, and I would definitely order this again. Breakfast Tofu Sandwich This one was just okay for me. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't my favorite and probably wouldn't be my first choice next time. Milk Tea French Toast The milk tea flavor was interesting, but it was a little too sweet for me. I personally prefer my French toast deep-fried, so this wasn't quite my style. The restaurant has a nice, modern Chinese-inspired decor and a clean, stylish atmosphere. You order and pay at the cashier first, then the food is brought to your table. There is a parking lot in the back, which is convenient, but it fills up pretty quickly. Street parking is another option if the lot is full. Overall, I enjoyed trying Woon, especially the beancurd congee. I'd come back for that, but the other two dishes didn't really stand out for me.

    Chilled Cucumber & Tofu Salad 涼拌豆干黃瓜

    Decided to give this spot a try after seeing so many folks raving about it on Tik Tok! As someone who grew up in a Chinese household and had many authentic Chinese dishes before, this place did not particularly impress me. I would describe it as a glorified Panda Express. My honest thoughts on everything I tried: Green Onion Pancake- Crispy exterior with a soft doughy center. Not overly salty! Really enjoyed this as a side dish, but the vinegar sauce it came with.... did not go well with it at all. Maybe I just wasn't used to it since it doesn't traditionally come with that type of dipping sauce. Not the best green onion pancake I've had, but still solid! 8/10 Cucumbers & Tofu- Very refreshing cucumber! I liked how they used hard tofu. Very unique blend of textures and with tart and spicy flavors. However, doesn't stand out to me. 7/10 Beef Noodles- for the price, the portion was extremely small. Noodles were chewy and thick, which I liked. Beef slices were not as tender as I wanted it to be. However, I did like how they paired it with baby bok choy. It was decent, but did it blow my mind? Absolutely not. 7/10 You order at the cashier and seat yourself with a table number card. Interior was spacious and open. Lots of indoor seating. Water is self serve. Parking available in rear or on the street. Overall, underwhelming in my humble opinion.

    Happy hour

    Finally got to stop by for dinner the other day!! We shared the beef noodles, wings, and pork belly bao. Everything was flavorful and delicious! I think the noodles could be easily shared amongst 2 people. Wings were crispy perfection too. And pork belly bao was soft and tender with a nice contrast from the veggies. Not gonna lie, I could have eaten a lot more. They were very kid friendly with high chairs, crayons and coloring pages. Employees were sweet and accommodating. You come in and order them find a seat. I cannot wait to come back for brunch. Ohhh also they have happy hour! See my attached photo!

    I came here after seeing a review of this place on instagram. I ordered a scallion pancake, pork belly rice, and a noodle dish. The orders came pretty fast after I sat down. The scallion pancakes were light crispy on the outside and dough chewy on the inside. The vinegar sauce gave a nice punch of flavor to the pancake. The pork belly rice was also pretty delicious. At first, I thought the flavor was a bit lacking until I realized I didn't mix in the sauce well enough. The addition of the veggies gave a good crunch break in between bites of pork belly and rice. I did wish that the cucumbers were more pickled though. The noodle dish was too springy and chewy for my liking. The flavors were strong but my mouth was tired after going through half the bowl. The meat was more tender and easier to chew than the noodles. Overall, I would put this place in between a 3 and a 4 star but I'll round it up to a 4. The pork belly rice is good enough for me to come back to. At first, I thought the prices were pretty expensive until I was rounding out my meal. I could split the pork belly rice with my wife as a light lunch and still be full. I'll be back for other stuff on the menu too.

    Scallion pancake

    I ordered delivery so this is strictly based on the food and not the service or actual location. I got the beef noodles and order of the scallion pancakes as those got the most reviews and appeared to be the most popular dishes. I also love a good beef noodle dish and scallion pancakes. I had high hopes and boy was I disappointed. The portion is about the most mediocre I've ever seen. The beef noodle dish was $18 and what I got was basically a side dish. Like 6 slices of beef and 1 small bunch of bok choy. The char was pretty good but holy smokes did I feel ripped off. The scallion pancake was prob even worse because not only was it a ripoff at $10 for like 6 small pieces (prob made up 1 whole pancake), it was bland and oily. No scallion flavor at all. I have major regrets to the point where I'm actually mad which doesn't happen often. I would never purchase from here again. I get costs are high especially for food but I felt like I was robbed. I am more than willing to pay for quality but there also has to be some element of worth. And absolutely not worth it.

    Ube Ice Cream Bao

    In love with their pork belly over rice, beef noodles, chicken wings, and their ice cream bao (ube ice cream from 626hospitalitygroup) If you ever considered eating here, please visit. You won't regret it!

    We ate here on a Thursday night for dinner and the restaurant had enough seating and wasn't too busy. You walk in and order at the front and then sit at a table and they bring the food out to you. The restaurant is nicely decorated with bright colors and detailed wallpaper. We ordered the pork rice bowl, scallion pancakes, and beef noodles to share between two of us. The standout dish by far was the beef noodles. The flavor was amazing and the noodles were cooked perfectly. I probably would opt to try something different from the pancakes and rice bowl in the future. Overall a very pleasant experience and I would come back again for those noodles!

    Woon is such a cute Chinese inspired restaurant. Private Parking located near the place. Very causal ambiance open seating. You order first and look for a table after. The menu is complete with a good variety. Perfect dish sizes for a party of two to share. We ordered the cucumber salad, which was average no big flavors but refreshing. My favorite dish was the scallion pancakes, it was crunchy and the dipping sauce was on the citrus side so it was a nice balance of flavors. Mama's five spice wings is a must try. Beef noodles was a small dish and a little on the salty side. Would come back to try other dishes especially for brunch!

    lol. Cultural misappropriation. This is where white ppl eat "Chinese" food - over marinated and over fried, w tiny portion. Ordering system is stupid and servers are dumb and ignorant. I will never trust LA Times review - Jonathan Gold (who really understood food) would never have approved. Again. lol. Nah.

    My friend and I went for dinner last night! Food: Chicken wings- I loved the flavor and crispiness. Didn't feel too greasy either. Chinese broccoli- too salty/ not refreshing. I would skip. Fried beef noodles- good texture of noodles, flavor, portion is just kind of small. We also got the royal milk tea ice cream. I liked the ice cream itself but the topping (meringue) crumbles didn't really work well together and made it too sweet? Service was okay, not super above and beyond but friendly and fast enough. Loved the ambiance though, very casual yet intimate and a lot of seats. Mostly self service.

    Pork Belly Bao 五花肉刈包 Pork Belly Over Rice 扣肉飯

    I've been to Woon in Westlake but had to check out the Pasadena location, and it did not miss! Came on a Tuesday night and it was surprisingly crowded - guess that's a sign of how good the food is! Plenty of tables though. You order at the counter first, then grab your own seat once you're through. My go-to at Woon is always the wood ear mushroom & bean curd stick salad - the mushrooms have this great slick, gelatinous bite that plays off the firmer, layered texture of the bean curd stick, all tossed in a soy-vinegar dressing with sesame oil and scallions. So refreshing on a hot day. Never tried the Mama Fong's five spice chicken wings before but omg, crunchy skin with a savory, well-seasoned bite all the way through - immediately added to my must-order list. Pork belly over rice was simple but solid, the pork so tender it practically melts, balanced out by tangy mustard greens and pickled carrots and cucumbers. Pork belly bao is always my favorite though, that same melt-in-your-mouth pork tucked into a soft steamed bun - never skipping that one. Overall, I always have a pleasant experience at either of the two locations!

    Five spice chicken wings
    Jasmine D.

    Finally made it out to Woon Pasadena for brunch! Stopped by with a friend on a Sunday - there was a bit of a line to order but we were able to be seated right away. You order and pay at the front, then get seated. I love the decor and ambiance as well! The items we tried: - Mama Fong's five spice chicken wings - these were definitely the standout for me - they came out piping hot, super fresh, and perfectly seasoned and garlicky - Cold sesame noodles (we added chicken) - chewy and thick noodles with a delicious marinated tofu, pickled cucumber, and a flavorful seasoning and sesame sauce! Such a yummy and satisfying comfort dish - Milk tea French toast - with milk bread, black tea custard, and black tea maple syrup. Loved the custard part - just a heads up it is a large portion size and comes with 2 slices. We honestly wish there was the option to just get one slice since we were so full by the end of our meal! There's a parking lot next to/behind the restaurant, or street parking in the area.

    5 stars for the 5 spice wings -- all flats and all so delicious!! These are soft (baked?) wings not crispy fried but very tasty nonetheless. BOGO Postmates delivery was fast and well-packaged. Highly recommended!

    Felt cheated for paying $16 + tax for beef noodles. It was greasy and salty. Premade, can't adjust sodium and oil levels.

Service was friendly and reasonably fast. I had a Made West Hazy IPA and a Pizza Port Amber, both of which I've had and enjoyed several times in several places over the years. I also ate some fries that were lying around, probably but not certainly by someone I at least sort of know. They weren't bad. I live kind of far from Pasadena and T.
