"A family lunch in Anaheim might make you think of those weird hotel restaurants where Snow White shows up for a photo after you start eating. The experience Ma’s House offers is, thankfully, a world away from those places. Come to this family-run Islamic Chinese banquet hall and restaurant in North Anaheim and you’ll find low-key gatherings of relatives, locals on midday break, and anyone else who was in the mood for big plates of homestyle Northern Chinese food that day. Ma’s all-Halal menu covers a lot of ground, with everything from kung pao chicken to dim sum, but we recommend focusing on the house specialty stir-fried short ribs, any of the cold appetizer dishes, and the crispy scallion bread." - brant cox

"Most big-group dinner spots in Anaheim are either dime-a-dozen steakhouse chains or weird hotel restaurants where Snow White shows up for a family photo right when you start eating. Ma’s Chinese Islamic is neither of those. Come to this family-run Halal restaurant in north Anaheim any day of the week and you’ll find large family gatherings, locals on lunch breaks, and every other person who passed by craving very good Chinese food. Ma’s menu is gigantic, with everything from kung pao chicken to dim sum, but we recommend focusing on the house specialty short ribs, any of the cold meats, and a massive plate of scallion bread." - Brant Cox

When it comes to great Chinese food, it takes flavor… The kind of flavor that kicks you in the mouth and you say thank you!! More please…. The food was hot, but lacked the flavor complexity I desire from great Chinese cuisine. The soup was a bit too thick for most of our liking, so most didn’t eat. The texture was very jellied or coagulated for soup. The Orange chicken was missing the signature orange flavor that is its namesake. The orange beef was really good and not fatty or chewy at all, but still missing the heat and flavor complexity of orange flavored dishes. The black pepper chicken with mushrooms was not bad and had a decent flavor compound. The white rice was good with great chew and bite and not a lot of sticky texture at all. The environment is lacking any real authentic feel, but open and clean. The pricing wasn’t bad and the service was fast. Over all, not a bad place… Will definitely give it another a try soon.

The beef roll is always so delicious, kids love it so much. So it’s the biggest reason we still keep going. Except it, others just so so. Great things, the dishes are very generous, the price is great. But service needs to be improved, it looks like not enough employees. The waiting time is so long.

Ma's house is pretty good as long as you dine in. Most dishes are delicious and served up fairly quickly if they're not too busy. Everything is freshly made. Honey walnut shrimp is one of my favorites. Chow mein is tasty. The beef roll is awesome. Chicken and cream corn soup is good. I've had only one bad dish: stir fried lamb with cumin, it's disgusting.

Great food, flavorful, and fresh. Lunch special good price and enough food for two. I ate the orange chicken, lamb chow mein, and 3flavor Kung pao. Great spot will come back to try Ma's short ribs and orange beef.

This restaurant looks pretty good inside. The service is good. The most part of the menu looks like a regular Chinese restaurant, but then among very typical choices you have some interesting lamb dishes, types of bread you normally don’t find at regular Chinese places. Their beef and lamb soups are great. The portions are pretty big. So I guess when you come here know what to order. The quality of food is good, everything looks fresh and cooked to order.

Found this place after searching for Chinese food in an area surrounded by Korean food. Pretty random location and I almost missed the turn into the parking lot. Plenty of parking when I went on a Monday at lunch but maybe it fills up a bit more in the evenings or weekends. Staff was friendly and helpful and their decor in the main lobby goes hard. I make rice at home so just wanted to pick up 2 dishes to eat with it. I was reading through their online menu and saw they had a relatively good lunch deal for $13.99+ depending on which dish you get. I got the shredded chicken which comes with some vegetables as well as an egg roll and that was $13.99. Additionally picked up 2 other pretty authentic dishes for about $15 each that tasted great and came with large portions. They have a lot of other items on their menu and I'm sure patrons can easily find something suitable to their tastes. I'm moving from the area soon but if I stuck around, I'd be back often.

Definitely one of the best restaurant in Town. Beef dumplings, lamb meat, chicken with cashew nuts were delicious. Service was really fast. Orange beef was really tasty too.Recommended
