What a dissatisfying experience.
(3/10) HongKong Style Frozen Milk Tea/ $6.25
- The tea isn’t rich, tea’s fragrant is weak, most importantly it’s almost $2 more expensive than the hot tea when the temperature was just a little bit cooler than room temp. Totally scam on the $2 extra when it’s not as “frozen” as advertised.
And when I confronted the waiter about it, he said there’s no ice available since COVID, and told me everyone is getting the same when in reality it’s just blatantly false advertising.
(2/10) Ham Chin Peng/ $5.00
Weak flavor, no fragrant (不香), greasy. Most importantly the texture of the food should be soft on the outside and fluffy on the inside, but their version is hard rock on the outside and clumpy doughy on the inside, it lacks the sweetness, savoriness, and the fragrant of the sesame seeds when it’s done right traditionally.
(3/10) Curry Fish Ball/ $7.75
It’s cooked.
But seriously, $8 for 8 small pieces of fish balls. It’s probably size of a quarter, way too expensive for what it is.
(7.5/10) Shrimp w/ Chives rice noodle Roll $9.45
This was actually not bad. Reasonably priced.
Decently flavored, good texture, the shrimp is relatively fresh. Good, good.
(4.5/10) Dough stick rice noodle roll $7.50
Even thought the Chinese dough stick is probably one of the better ones I’ve had in LA, meaning it doesn’t have a weird oily scent (which many restaurants has), it suffers from being just a little bit too hard on the shell. You feel the hardness at the very end of the bite, it’s not crunchy, it’s hard.
And although the sauce on top is pretty decent, it can be a little thick and get tired of at the end of dish. Personally, I’d rather have a little bit more of the peanut sauce on top.
Last but not least, service. (3/10)
The waiter was a young gentleman, but he gives of a “I don’t really care about this job attitude”, no eye contact, lazy tones. And when he serves the fish ball dish, he just kinda dropped it on the table, you can see the sauces rocking in the plate almost spilling out.
Overall, if you just want the rice rolls, and the rice rolls only, and you can overlook the bad services, it’s probably worth a visit. At your own risk. ( PS: of course, just like many Asian restaurants, they’re cash only.)
This place was an absolute treat for Chang Fen dishes! I ate this when I was in China years ago, and this one is just as good, and is packed with delicious ingredients.
Our group tried nearly every rice roll on the menu. All of them were tasty and super fresh from the steamer. I liked the shrimp, beef, pork, and chinese sausage toppings. Be sure to add egg all over your rolls, or add extra meat!
Make sure no matter what you order, finish it off with the "dough stick rice noodle roll" which is crunchy, soft, steamy, savory, nuty, and sweet!
Service by Sasha (sp?) was quick, recommendations were on point, and food hit the spot! Definitely would come back again.
Great authentic Cantonese Cuisine. Wait wasn't too long however worth the time spent.
Got their Lo Mai Gai (sticky rice Chinese sausage, braised pork, wrapped in lotus leaves)
Curry fish balls, and a BBQ pork rice bowl with sweet soy sauce, and what appeared to be a popular dish rice noodle rolls with pork, shrimp, and green onions which was beyond our expectations of deliciousness. You can order that in many different styles. Those rice noodle rolls on their own was amazing!
Very delicious and would love to come back here with the family again and try other items on their menu.
Your wait time could vary 30+ minutes. Place was clean, organized, sanitized, offer friendly and professional service.
I came in for lunch. It is CASH ONLY, which I thought was strange considering the pandemic. Each chang fen was about $8 to $10. I got the shrimp and beef, shrimp and pork, and beef brisket. There is a outdoor seating area. The service was not good and not very friendly. When we were done with our food after eating outside, they wouldn't take our trash. The food was good, traditional Chinese flavor, but I wouldn't come back.
The zhou is delicious, paired with youtiao of course!
The changfen is made beautifully and the flavor options are varied.
Service is quick and efficient.
I love having breakfast here.
Rice roll is good but I wait a bit long due to a large the take-out order by someone else. The portion of the beef offal is small, though tasty.
A good selection of chang fen here. Their beef brisket chang fen is both unique and very good. The yodaguai and ham chin peng are also pretty tasty when hot and fresh. On the negative side, while the tables were clean, there is a certain unhygienic vibe which I attribute in part to at least one of our servers who reeked of cigarette smoke when he was speaking to us. Additionally, the menu prices are unnecessarily confusing. They have stickers next to each item with updated prices, but there is another sticker at the top of the menu indicating that everything is actually .50 higher than the listed item price. Why? ???? Totally unnecessary and annoying.
Best rice noodle roll in California. Came on a weekday morning. We ordered 6 variety of rice noodle rolls and few orders of steamed sticky rice. All were very tasty. The iced milk tea was good. The staffs were friendly. One of them (I guess she was the owner) came and asked if there were enough for us and offered more rice noodle roll for free. Will definitely come back again when we are in the area next time. Oh and almost forget to mention, the chilli sauce was the best!
