Let me start by saying I work in china, so I’m a bit biased. I’d read amazing reviews about Mian so I decided to take the hike to San Gabriel. The good was ok. My spicy tofu with beef was so oily I could barely get the noodles out before they slid back into the bowl. It was very salty and simply to oily. My daughter ordered the chicken noodle and it tasted like Campbell’s noodle soup. My sister ordered the chicken the beef shank noodle and she fared the best. The ordering system is by QR code so there was no one to greet us or ask us how the food was. Not worth the hype or drive, I will not be coming back.

This spot came up and when we arrived it had a Michelin rating and it lives up to it! I ordered the pork dumpling, crispy pork pieces and beef noodle dish. The dumplings were phenomenal especially with the sweet sauce. The crispy pork pieces were delicious but wish they had something to dip them with but they were still crispy & on point with the seasoning. The beef noodle soup which is noted in an article posted on their wall was really good and I highly recommend these three dishes. I’d definitely come back here again for the excellent customer service and Michelin star rated dishes.

This place was in walking distance to our hotel and rated high so we came in for dinner. Small place but were able to get seated right away. We ordered the combo chicken and beef, white rice, pumpkin cakes and sesame noodles. The portion of the hotpot was huge and being just the 2 of us we barely finished a quarter of it. Taste was delicious however we could have easily saved alot of money if they had smaller portions. Sesame noodles were strong flavored but adding the chili paste gave it a wonderful flavor. We added the wild vermicelli to the hotpot but wasnt a fan of it. Too sticky. Pumpkin cakes were soft, buttery and loved the flavor. Service was good. We had little trouble understanding the menu and how it works however the server explained well. Bill provided was in chinese which I think should be in English so that its easier to verify the items. Its located in a busy complex but we walked so cant comment on that aspect.

This spicy hot pot place is absolutely amazing! The ingredients are fresh and there’s a wide variety to choose from. The mix of main and side ingredients is well-balanced. You can adjust the level of spiciness to your taste—the flavor is rich but not greasy, and it leaves you wanting more! The service is great, and the restaurant is clean and tidy with a comfortable atmosphere. Highly recommend adding lotus root slices and bullfrog—they soak up the flavor perfectly! I’m always satisfied when I come here. Strongly recommended for anyone who loves spicy food!

Recently came across this budget-friendly meal deal—only $11.99 all day for one dish plus a bowl of rice, with 25 dishes to choose from! Do the math, and $100 gets you 8 dishes—basically 8 full rice bowl meals! Honestly, I haven’t had this kind of “eat a lot and eat well” happiness at a restaurant in a long time! [Stir-fried Beef with Chili] This one’s the ultimate rice killer! Tender beef slices with a hint of spice, full of wok hei. I could easily eat another bowl of rice with this. [Homestyle Tofu] Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside—stir-fried with wood ear mushrooms and green peppers. It soaks up the sauce beautifully. [Garlic A-Choy] The light and refreshing option! A perfect balance to all the hearty dishes. Strong garlic aroma but doesn’t overpower. [Pickled Radish & Chicken Gizzards] Super crunchy and full of texture! The sour radish is so appetizing—another perfect combo with rice. [Shrimp with Soft Scrambled Egg] Ordered this one for the kid! Delicately cooked, eggs are super soft and creamy, shrimp is bouncy and fresh—plate was polished clean! [Spicy Stir-fried Clams] Clams are big and meaty, cooked in a savory-sweet sauce with chili peppers. Pretty solid! [Stir-fried Bullfrog] Okay, I cheated and got a non-discounted dish… but I had to. I love bullfrog, and this one tasted super fresh—definitely freshly butchered. Spicy, flavorful, and surprisingly affordable compared to other places. They also do skewers and drinks at night—totally vibey for a night out. I have to come back for dinner next time!

This restaurant is located on the 3rd floor. We came here for the skewers. We were surprised by the dumplings and the scallops were quite good as well. The price was very affordable, the mini skewers were perfect for bite size. I like the Secret Beef and the Secret Lamb were better seasoned than the mini skewers. The Yellow Croaker fishes were tender and flavorful. Good place to hangout with friends and families.

Got the half roasted duck and thought it was just alright. It wasn’t very flavorful, and the skin wasn’t crispy like I was hoping. The worker wasn’t friendly, but honestly, that was kind of expected. Overall, I wouldn’t return.

High recommended this Chinese BBQ restaurant.The BBQ food is always fresh and delicious.The staff is friendly.

Hidden gem in San Gabriel! Beijing Yuan offers an incredible $13.5 rice bowl special — and it’s way better than you’d expect for the price. I had the fish-flavored shredded pork and Beijing cold noodles, and both were delicious. The pork was juicy and perfectly balanced between sweet, sour, and spicy. The cold noodles were super authentic and refreshing. Plus, you get a free salad, oolong tea, and even fried milk for dessert! Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and unbeatable value. Will definitely be coming back!

Absolutely fantastic experience at Beijing Tasty House! The food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish we ordered was a hit, especially the Peking duck and zhajiang noodles — both were incredibly delicious and reminded me of true Beijing-style cooking. The service was friendly and attentive, and the staff made great recommendations based on our tastes. The restaurant was clean, well-lit, and had a welcoming atmosphere. Even though it was busy, we didn’t have to wait long. Definitely one of the best Chinese dining experiences I’ve had in the area. Can’t wait to come back!

The Onion Oil Flavor Chicken is the most popular chicken here with a secretive sauce. The chicken is tender.

Bone-free chicken is good

The food is well seasoned and tasty. It’s on the heavier salty side with oil. For most people it will be spicy. We ordered the sauerkraut and it was a blend of savory and sour flavors. The pork came fried with rice puff/crackers that gave a nice crunch and texture without being too hard. The eggplant included century egg and was also quite salty. Everything was balanced out by the star, rice. The coconut balls were crispy on the outside and filled with coconut and sago and was not overly sweet. For the whole meal it was about ~$88 overall and leftovers were taken home.

Walked in on a weekend night. Place was clean and organized each dish came out at different timings. Overall experience was just okay not thing really special. Servers were okay too.. only thing I would recommend was the eggplant and century egg. Not sure if I’ll be back again. But if you can take on hard spice definitely check it out.

Food is normal, for one plate can't same items. I'm notice there's $2.50 charge for dine in, for rice, porridge, and soup unlimited. We didn't eat that much. Hope its an option to add or not when pay.

Very interesting place—serves Chinese fast food with attractive dine in option. Very reasonable pricing. Cash only (no signs for form of payments but figured with the low price). It's very easy to spot on East bound Valley Blvd., But probably not other directions. Would recommend to friends & come back. Heard about this place for a while and finally visited today. Service is good. Inside the restaurant looks clean but the trash can outside is full and overflowing. I arrived at around 1:30 pm and most seats are taken. Parking lot was full and after my visit I see why >> They offer unlimited rice, rice porridge, and soup for dine in! The shaved ice bar looks fine. Food is fine. I also like they use environmental friendly container for soup to-go. Would give 5 stars if the outside is also clean & keep the doors closed all the time to keep out the hot air.

AVOID IT AT ALL COST! Hair came out of the noodles. The waitress did not apologize for anything and making my day ruined. The hygiene of this place is deplorable will never go back again!

BEST PLACE EVER! Come every week. Amazing service. Amazing food!

A cozy restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. The food was served promptly and was delicious. Entrées averaged around $17 each. Recommend this place for a very good meal!

This restaurant has some outdoor seating, mainly for smokers or when indoor seating is totally packed. The food is tasty and tends to be seasoned a bit too salty for our group. The restaurant does get busy especially on the weekends. Parking can be a challenge depending on the time. The parking lot is also quite confusing as drivers tend to drive the wrong way while trying to find parking spots or trying to get to the other side of the parking lot. Service can be a bit slow when it is packed.

This was on par with the best Peking duck I've had in Beijing. Everything about this Peking Duck meal was impeccable, and the Black Fungus with Chinese Yam side dish paired very nicely with the main dish. The only thing that would have made this experience even more perfect would have been if they carved the duck at the table in front of us. But still, 5/5 stars.

Reasonable prices, yummy foods with beautiful presentation. Staffs were very helpful and quick to respond to questions and requests. Offered to replace clean dining plates when needed. All of us who went eat together agreed that we will definitely go back to eat here again.

Got their namesake. Normally not a fat noodles kinda' guy, but they do serve a purpose in soaking up oils. Taste-wise it's not bad! Their chilli oil I think is home made, but tends to be on the much more bitter side. Still not bad! Really nice decor.

Good stuff, lots of variety. Noodles were of course good, I got the tomato and eggs soup because that what my dad always got, and the three topping noodles. No complaints. Green beans were good too. My buddy I went with used to come here a lot pre pandemic and he says it's not as good. Even so, I was happy, and want to try other dishes on the menu, so I'll be back.
