LiOrient Asian Bar & Restaurant

Like their foods. Siomay Pork & Shrimp is awesome with big portion, also the Kungpao Chicken. The ambience is lovely one, staff is friendly, located inside The Constance Hotel in Pasadena, this is probably one of the best chinese food resto in Pasadena area.

Nice bar, nice restaurant, decent service. Happy hour specials aren't bad. But the food was bland and underseasoned. Duck sliders didn't taste like literally anything.

I really enjoyed my visit to LiOrient. I had trouble navigating to the restaurant but after that it was a great time. The bartender made me the perfect cocktail - see picture. I can't remember the name... I'll research and update the review. It was soo good. They offer a pretty decent happy hour menu but I went with Kung Pao chicken and broccolini. Both were off the charts. I was surprised at how much I ate. The place was a bit empty but I was pleased to have full attention from the staff. Definitely visit when in the area!

This is a very nice Chinese restaurant with a great selection of food that tastes fantastic. For lunch there is plenty of room and they offer a fast to-go option at the entrance. Service was great, they have red envelopes if your need them and pricing is a good gradient of cheaper and expensive options. The shrimp and orange chicken are two of my favorites. The Pad Thai was good but a bit dry.

Looks good but it doesn’t taste good for a Taiwanese. Salty in general.

For fine dining in the core of downtown, this beautifully renovated venue can't be beat. Chef Peter is a top chef that creates amazing dishes that will tantilize your tastebuds. If you don't have time for a business lunch, they tout a fast to go area for the working crowd that can't get away from their desks. Staff are extremely nice and service is top notch. The full bar is amazing as is their wine selection.

This is a really cool spot in Downtown LA where the old McCormick & Schmick's used to be. I am of Asian descent and I did enjoy the food to a degree but I did think it was a little overpriced and the two dishes I ordered were decent, but the beef dish was very salty. The shrimp Kung Pao was fine. if it was just for Ambiance, this place would be five stars. It's really pleasant to be in with great lighting and interior design. I would consider coming here for a large party simply because there's plenty of seating and the presentation is nice. I'm not sure if there are other dishes are as salty as the beef one I got.

Finally, a legit traditional Chinese restaurant in the center of Downtown (beside Triple8, which is another all time favorite). This place is upscale, perfect for dates, large parties, and family dinners alike. The separate full bar area is great, love this place for grabbing a drink with a colleague. Yummy
