Cold dishes take out
Doreen T.

I haven't dined in here yet, but a friend recommended this spot for their takeout appetizers and side dishes. You can choose three veggie options for only $9.99 plus tax, and they pack the container so full it looks like a little mountain! I've already stopped by twice recently. My go-to selections are the shredded potatoes, seaweed salad, cucumbers, tofu skin, mustard greens, oyster mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms, and spicy tofu. They make great side dishes, or I'll just eat them with rice. The portion is so generous that it usually lasts my husband and me at least two meals. I'm hoping to come back soon to actually dine in and try their noodles and other menu items.

All kinds of appetizer selections

This review is just for the amazing selection of appetizer/cold dishes as we didn't have a chance to try out their noodles and other foods. They have a wide selections of vegetarian and meat appetizers, ranging from seaweed and dried tofu, to pig ears and gizzards. They have one standard size of to go boxes, and you can pick 1-3 either vegetarian or meat items for each box, the vegetarian box is $11.04 and meat box is $15.46 with tax. Service is prompt, the appetizers lasts a few days in the frig and taste is delicious! Parking: located in the same shopping center as the 168 Market, there are plenty of free parking.

Yunnan Restaurant in San Gabriel is similar to their original store in Monterey Park in their menu but their side dish counter is smaller with less items. You can choose 3 side meat dishes for $15 vegetarian for $11 or mix for $13. They pile on the items so definitely a good value. We usually get the signature Yunnan crossing bridge rice noodles. This location is smaller and not as popular as the Monterey Park store. Plenty of parking in the large shopping center.

111. Lamb Dry Pot
Mai R.

First time trying this restaurant and I am so glad I did. We had the lamb dry pot and a tofu with seafood dis. The lamb dry pot is so flavorful and perfectly cooked, the tofu is tender and mildly flavored, perfectly balanced the spiciness of the lamb dry pot. We will be coming her more often since the price is very reasonable and portion is generous.

100%漂亮饭!老板人很好,菜非常好吃!This restaurant is absolutely amazing. Everything I've tried here has been consistently delicious, and the quality never misses. The flavors are bold, the portions are generous, and you can tell real care goes into every dish. I loved it so much that I already know I'll be coming back again and again. Honestly, if I could, I'd order at least 100 Calderon steaks--that's how good it is. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a spot they'll want to make their new go-to.

Side dish: shredded potato, garlic cucumber, spicy marinated fried tofu
Darren L.

I underestimate how well done the majority of the hot dishes here are. The Spicy Boiled Fish is far more flavorful than the same dish at practically every other restaurant. It could be garlic, or MSG, but whatever it is works great. I like that it's not watery, but rather more saucey which goes well with rice. The Mapo Tofu is the most flavorful I've tried as well with the perfect balance of numbing, spicy, and other flavors. You really can't go wrong with any of the hot dishes. The cold dishes I feel could be tastier but they're adequate, while the cucumbers are quite a large chunk so it's not pleasant to bite.

Stumbled upon this place on E. Las Tunas and it's become my comfort food haven. The broth here is something else - you can really taste the care that goes into it. I always leave feeling so satisfied.

The food is delicious and hospitality was great. It has an authentic taste of Szechuan and has a great spicy level. Love it!

I ordered 3 different of rice noodles, a cold side dish, and salt and pepper fish fillet to go. But when the food arrived home, there was a huge wad of tissue inside the noodles. I almost threw up just looking at it--so disgusting. I threw all the food away and didn't dare to eat it.

Food didn't taste as good as more than 15 years ago, overly expensive banquet menu. Price on…read morereservation menu was way different from actual price at restaurant. Won't allow to change some food on banquet menu, just had to add another dish. Food came out fast & with big plates, hardly any space on table, waiter just left it on top of 2 serving trays. They didn't care that serving plates were still full. The beef loc lac was tough, deep fried fish sauce tasted weird with their sweet sour sauce, pea sprouts which I was trying to change to another dish but couldn't, sure enough was so fibrous & chewy. The special fried rice was so full of all different kinds of meat that it was like a meal in itself. With 10 different dishes it would have been better to serve plain white rice. Felt service could been better for 18% service already added on bill. Tea was even charged. Had to ask for menu at cashier & was told already at table, asked for waiter so we can order, had to ask for water, spoons & forks or to have some serving plates taken away to have more space at table. There were few waiters & feel that they were not attentive and restaurant was not even busy. Even parking lot was not full but there was courtesy valet parking & girl was insisting on parking the cars even though several cars was starting to line up. I would never recommend or return to this place again. Just disappointed that my guests did not enjoy the food as well.

I only ever had their takeout during Covid but I was sooo excited to finally dine-in here. I took…read moreadvantage of the reservation system and did not have to wait on a Saturday evening. The place was bustling for a good reason. You must try their seafood of course, its in the name. But especially the house special lobster noodles. The plate was ginormous and could feed up to 10+ people. Flavors were all there too. I also had the red cod for $50/pound. While it was good, the cod costed $150 and didn't have much meat. Top notch service.

THIS PLACE WAS SOOOOO BUSSSIN…read more The beef noodle soup was actually out of the world. The soup dumplings were also filling and the broth was comforting. The spicy wontons were just the right amount of spice and very tasty. The service was fast and friendly. I loved how intimate the interior was; casual and open.

Heard about how popular this place is so came with parents for mother's day weekend for dinner…read more There was already a line outside at 6:30pm and they have a tablet outside to add yourself to the waitlist, which is very convenient. And they have some chairs for people waiting. The wait wasn't too bad, around 25 minutes or so and they text you when the table is ready. They have a very nice interior design and not that many tables inside, but they do a good job of serving food fast so the wait times aren't bad despite the small space. There is a ipad at your table once seated so you can directly send your order to the kitchen instead waiting for the waiter. We got the Wagyu Beef Chinese Burger, Kurobuta Pork and Crab Meat Soup Dumplings, Kurobuta Pork Soup Dumplings, Stir Fried Noodles w Angus Beef, Dry Pot Cauliflower, and Sweet and Sour Kurobuta Pork Ribs. The waiters here were friendly and attentive, giving extra napkins and refilling our water cups often. The food was served in like ten minutes which is fast. I liked the Wagyu Chinese burger the most since the beef is stir fried very well and seasoned very flavorfully. It is just pricey for the size. The soup dumplings were all pretty good with good meat quality and dumpling skin. Each soup dumpling order only comes with 8 which isn't too bad for the price. The cauliflower and stir fried noodles were both pretty good too, very flavorful. The porb ribs were just average though and pricey for only 8 pieces that are not very big. The flakey beef rolls are also very good. Comes with four per order and the meat quality and skin was just perfect. Overall, this is a pretty good spot for soup dumplings and noodles, and I highly recommend the Wagyu Chinese burger. The portions are a bit small for the price but the food quality is good. I can see why there is always a line outside. Their service is also great and fast. I liked how they help pack your leftovers to-go for you. Will come back again!

The sauce was rich, slightly tangy, and baked perfectly into the rice. I swear I only come here just for the baked tomato rice and getting chicken was a nice surprise because I usually would get it with the pork chops. SO GOOOOOD. The braised tofu with mushrooms and broccoli was also really solid. It's comforting and really well seasoned. Brick toast was really good too. Crispy on the outside, soft and buttery inside, exactly how it should be!!! The only thing was the pear chicken soup that was a whopping $12.99 for a smalllll bowl. It tasted delicious but the price was not worth it for how small the portion size was I really love this spot so much. Every time I come here, the quality is consistent and the customer service is so fast!!

Got the French toast with peanut butter, an absolute classic but I wish there was condensed milk (my own preference, nothing wrong without it) I also got the club sandwich (not pictured) but it's also a classic that they did not mess up. The bread was so soft, buttery, and perfectly toasted! The chicken in there was also cooked to perfection. Last time, I got the pineapple porch chop bun The staff was also really efficient (expected nothing less).

Came to the Rosemead location to celebrate a family member's birthday on a Friday evening. We were…read moreable to call ahead earlier in the morning and ask if we could be on the wait list or reserve a table. They told us they could reserve a table for us at 6pm. We originally were hoping for 7 or 7:30, but based on how busy and popular this place is I can see why they said no. Come early and get seated right away and there's still ample parking in their parking lot. By the time we left at 7:30p, the lot was packed and people circling around hoping to snag a spot from folks leaving. The restaurant is pretty large and has about 3 rooms with different size tables and booths. No matter the size of your party, there's a table that will accommodate. The staff were very nice and attentive and FAST! We had our food out probably 15 min after we put in our order! Now...on to the food. We ordered one of the set menus for our party of 7 and it was spot on! As you can see in the pictures we had all the "classics". Our set meal could easily be enjoyed by at least 10 people. We had so many leftovers! The food was all well prepared and sufficiently seasoned. Portions of each dish was plentiful and everyone will be able to get enough to satisfy. My favorite items: lobster (duh!), kung pao chicken, pork chops, and shaking beef. The seafood soup is a great starter, and don't forget to add a little vinegar and pepper! Great restaurant in the SGV. This location is much bigger than their Rowland Heights restaurant, but the food is exactly the same. This is a great alternative to the popular Newport Seafood, so don't sleep on this place!

Been looking for an authentic Chinese restaurant. Haven't been to one in a while. This place was…read morerecommended to us by a friend. Came at 530 pm on a tuesday, and there wasen't anyone here yet. Afterwards it filled up quickly!! The main thing I dont like about this place is they dont have the prices on what your ordering. Which I'll get too at the end. Like any other Chinese restaurant, their menu is super extensive. I love how they have a little bit of everything. And its very well organized too. We ordered the following: 1. Crab and fish maw soup- this soup was amazing. It was just the right temp. Got me sweating. Can easily feed 12 people. Great amount of maw. The consistency is just right. Tasted so good!! 2. Small lobster special- on a bed of noodles. It was about 5 lbs. Cooked well. Could do without. Basically flavors. And it was expensive!! About $30 a lb. So this one dish cost basically the same amount as all the other dishes. Which was just too much. If I knew it was that much I would definitely not have ordered it. 3. Walnut shrimp- not the best walnut shrimp I've had. But it was ok. 4. Garlic shrimp- this shrimp dish was ok. Too many bell peppers and onions. It was just ok. 5. Mongolian beef- flavors were not that great. Very tender though. Could've been better. 6. Sea trout- this was amazing!! I love the sauce. Fish was so soft and tender. The heat, the spice, the sweetness. Some of that sauce in white rice was just perfection. It was really really good. Best dish of what we ordered. 7. Kung pao chicken- this was a really good dish. Crispy bits of chicken. But so soft and tender inside. I love the sauce that it was in. It was by far one of the highlights of the meal. It was good food. Price for everything (except the lobster) was pretty good. Food tasted amazing for the most part. Typical Chinese customer service. Pay at the front. Massively large portions. Solid authentic Chinese food.
