Passed this place a couple times, but never thought about giving it a try until today, as the interior looks so dark from outside. The interior is actually bright and clean. The restaurant claims that they provide NE Chinese food. We ordered 3 different dishes and they all tasted decent. Will come back to something else in the future.

A go-to spot in town for me. Highly recommend the crispy sweet and sour pork – a must-have with a variety of choices. Everything was just right, and we finished every bite – truly delicious!

Overall not bad at all, dumplings are fresh and tasty, me being Chinese, I personally have a higher standard for authentic Chinese food, they do carry some of my hometown’s specialties. Need to work on customer service and the speed of bringing dishes to the table

Good, authentic northeastern region Chinese cuisine. There are so many Chinese restaurants in this area and this is one of the few real deals. They serve traditional and authentic northeastern Chinese cuisine that might not be for everyone but it's very good if you want a change from the usual Shanghai, Szechuan or Cantonese food.

To be honest, I don’t really like their dishes. We ordered three dishes, and only 京酱肉丝 meets our standard (however, our friend feels another restaurant is better). 干锅肥肠 has only a few 肥肠 and too oil, and 小鸡炖蘑菇 has very little mushroom with bad parts of chicken (like necks and little chicken wings).

这家东北菜好好吃呀,好吃不贵。今天跟朋友们一起去了罗兰岗的那家老菜馆,住在这附近的人应该都知道这家吧,开了好几年了[偷笑R]罗兰岗的东北菜不多,所以我没搬家前经常会回顾,光点外卖都已经不下十次了,平时都会点老三样:锅包肉、溜肉段和溜肝尖,今天跟朋友一起换换口味~

Very authentic northern Chinese food. Everything tasted delicious. Guo bao rou and sour pickled veggie with pork belly stew were my favorite two dishes. i saw some other reviews saying they have bad services but i actually had no problem with that at all. Our server were nice and prompt. The restaurant is quite small but they manage the seating quite well. They have 2 large round tables in the middle that can seat 10 people and rest smaller tables on the 2 sides. If you don't like crowd seating you might be bothered by it.

愛妳的人怕給的不夠,不愛妳的人怕你要的太多,有時候感情沒有這麼複雜,能夠讓你開開心心,笑的最甜的那個人,就是對的人~ 今天要來介紹的叫「那家」老菜館,不是Temple City有名的那家,也不是在Azusa在大華旁邊的那家,是在羅蘭岡香港超市有臭豆腐大王Plaza的那家, 看來所有的老闆都喜歡取名「那家」,不喜歡叫「這家」 這家炒菜館, 要不是有國內的朋友帶我來, 可能經過再多次, 都不是我會進來的店, 結果他家的菜色很好吃 , 最火的新式鍋包肉, 我很喜歡,炸的好吃之外, 外頭還撒了甜甜的糖漿?蜂蜜? 總之超搭的, 有去, 這道菜是每桌必點的, 還有酸菜魚, 炒土豆絲, 也合我的口味, 很多國內的餐廳, 味道真的太油, 太鹹, 這家還行, 價格也還可以,沒來過的可以試試!

I went here for dinner, the service was horrible with the waiters having attitudes and not helping me with ordering and such. At the end i didn't even wait for my last couple of dishes to arrive and i checked out because I didn't feel like I received the proper service I got. I did not give tip, yet the server chased me out demanding for tip. I refused multiple times but they continuously bugged me for it. Horrible place

Great tittle hidden gem in Rowland Heights. The food portion was amazing, delicious, and friendly service. The only down side was the sweet and sour pork not sour enough. I hope they improve because that's what I am here for.

Came in for northern food, there's just one server doing everything. They served food super slow we waited for half an hour. It was aa pretty nauseous store they put togo boxes in restroom....when we tried to say we're canceling order then they started to serve. Food generally not bad which is why it worth 2 stars

This restaurant serves incredibly delicious food. The dishes are authentic, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, offering a comforting and hearty dining experience. From the rich stews to the crispy pancakes and savory dumplings, every bite is a taste of Northern China's traditional cuisine. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Northeastern flavors! good service,clean environment. The food is served quickly. The taste of home.

If you're craving authentic Northeast Chinese flavors, this place is a must-try! We ordered the Guo Bao Rou, Demoli fish, and sour cabbage noodle, and every dish was fantastic. The Guo Bao Rou was perfectly crispy with just the right balance of sweet and tangy flavors--a real treat! The Demoli fish was flavorful, seasoned with traditional spices. And the sour cabbage noodle was a comforting, delicious bowl that had that perfect tangy kick. The service was quick, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We'll definitely be back for more! Highly recommended.

Spicy Chicken is one of the best ones in LA! Mixed dry pot also very good. Price is pretty nice! This restaurant is definitely underrated.

I ordered takeout, and the chef didn't put any salt in it. When I called, the staff rudely suggested I add salt myself and refused to remake the dish. Despite the good food, I don't recommend ordering delivery from them due to the poor service.

We used to frequent this establishment for its authentic northern Chinese food. Especially the guo bao rou was very good. We decided to visit again today for the first time in several months. I don't know if they changed chefs or what. They claimed they didn't. But the change in food quality was just too drastic. The 5 color noodles didn't look very colorful at all and had nontraditional sauce that didn't taste good. The guo bao rou used a sauce that didn't taste right. And worse... The pork had an off smell and taste to it. We barely touched it. And yet they refused to take it off the bill. Incredibly frustrating and disappointing experience. Will never be returning here again.

The Decor look nice, just like a Chinese restaurant should look like. The waitress was very attentive, however, she was the only person to help the many tables. The issue that I had was they were doing some light maintenance while we were there with a power drill, and it made some noises. Other than that the food was tasty. You must get the green bean which has mala in it. They were able to substitute beef for the lamb noodle soup as my daughter doesn't eat lamb, that was tasty. The dish prices range from $15-$20.

As soon as I set foot into this restaurant, before I even saw what the dining area looked like, I knew this was the right place. People were talking loud inside, I hear the familiar Northeastern accent, and I smell and spot my childhood dishes. Food came out super fast, tasted amazing - even by Chinese restaurants in China standards, and service was prompt, direct, and efficient. I love everything about this place and would give it 6 stars if I could. Came with my husband who ate Southern Chinese food growing up and he thought food here was excellent too!

Yelp
I'm from northern china and the food here is pretty authentic. I ordered their pan fried pork and cold noodles. I've had better pan fried pork in the Bay Area but the cold noodle here is pretty solid. It is on the sweeter side. I will definitely come back to try their other dishes.

Terrible Food and horrible service! The meat are not fresh!! We bought a frozen beef slice and a sheep shabu and the sheep is ok. But the beef smells like a dirty socks! We want exchange or refund for that horrible beef. The boss yelled at us and said they won't sell anything to us. They are so rude and unreasonable!

High quality Chinese food!!! Very good selection of different types of Chinese cuisine! They don't speak much English but..... they got my order right! Oh yeah, they don't have any alcoholic beverages

I'm from north eastern , is hard to find good hometown food in Cali, this place offers authentic north eastern food, too bad We couldn't eat that much so we only ordered two. I wish they still have their chunbing 春饼 :( if you miss hometown dishes, this is the spot!

Yelp
Most authentic Northeastern Chinese cuisine I've had in the states! The De Mori stewed fish (De Mu Li Dun Yu) and Fried Pork in Sweet Sour Sauce (Guo Bao Rou) taste exactly like what I had in my hometown of Harbin, China. I've only seen a handful of actual authentic Northeastern Chinese restaurants in the world, don't miss your chance to experience it here.

Parents brought me here and said the xlb and pan fried pork buns were good. I was expecting it to just be above avg, but they were BOMB. The XLB were soupy which i love. The pan fried pork buns were really juicy. Everything else was also well made, but those two were def the stars of the show. Overall, if I wanted a quick xlb fix, this would prob be my goto for the area.

This is our favorite place for Chinese food! Very authentic, great service and most importantly reasonable price comparing to the size! The food quality is amazingly high even during the pandemic, unlike other places, the size is still large and food still tastes like before!

Love it soooooo much And it is really authentic And I can identify that I will come back again The service are super nice as well

My friend suggested here because she wanted to try someplace new. I really like the pan fried pork buns. I might actually go back here for just this dish. The bottom tastes like the fried dough crueller from Taiwanese breakfast and the top is doughy. We also ordered the eggplant (which was a bit garlicky), hot&sour soup, and xiao long bao so we had quite a bit of food to take home. I think these dishes are ordinary but I liked the fact none of it was over the top oily or over flavored. Just expect that this place, and the parking lot, requires a bit more patience. The service wasn't bad, but the waitresses only communicated in Mandarin. Also, beware how they pack your leftovers. They packed my leftovers and put my super saucy eggplant in a mini styrofoam box and it spilled all over the rest of the plastic bag. Instead of stacking the mini styrofoam box on top of the soup container, they tilted it against another mini styrofoam container. Luckily, it didn't get on my car seats.

The night we went there was just one more table with 2 people. Wife was reluctant to go in first. 1. XLB: Very good! The quality is better than Ding Tai Fung since I don't like their plasticy wrapper. Here the wrapper is just thick enough to keep all the juice in but also moist enough to keep it tender-10/10. This by itself makes this review 4 star! 2. Pan fried dumpling: once again the chef is showing the skill with the soft, spongy outside and juicy and tender meat filling inside. Only complaint is the meat is a bit small-7/10. 3. Smoked chick: typical cold dish-5/10. 4. Gelatin pig feet: tender but just ok. I didn't order it. They brought it to my wife when I was away washing hands. She ate a piece before I returned. I decided to keep it but later regret when learned it's almost $10.-5/10 5. Sour and spicy cold starchy noodle: it's mainly sour not spicy at all-6/10. 6. Shanghai style cold braised gluten: another ok dish-6/10 Will come back just for the XLB!

awful service They said it took 15 minutes to have the to go ready. When I got there 25 minutes to pick up they said the food not ready yet, let me wait another 15 minutes. Another 15 minutes later, they said the food still not ready yet. The attitude was extremely rude.

Yelp
We are long time customers. They lost our business today. Food took 1.5 hours to serve. The dumplings were undercooked, meat was still raw in the middle. Other dishes were way too salty. The chef in the back appears to lost his touch. They seem understaffed and could not manage the dine in and take out on time.

The worst restaurant I have ever been. Food is not clean, waitress is really rude. I went there with my family, very unhappy experience !!

Nan S.

The review is not for the food ! We went there at a Saturday night because we want to try something new . We asked the waitress to give my little one a highchair then she brought us one with the seatbelt missing ! I told her this highchair is not safe and asked for another one , she told us this is the only highchair they have ! In the meanwhile the lady at the counter (I think she's the owner) gave me a dirty look !We walked away and will never come back ! To the owner : fix the highchair !!!

Three things are good. The taste, the quality of the food and the chef. One of the best real traditional Chinese northern cuisine in our area. The only not so good thing is the service. Some times is slow. But the waitress lady is a very nice person.

We wanted some hot broth noodle soup, and found this new restaurant in HK 2 plaza. We tried beef noodle and steam buns. Both are surprisingly great! We are very impressed and definitely will go back any try the pork soup steam buns.
