New Elite Restaurant

This restaurant is a must-visit for clay pot rice lovers. The rice arrives sizzling with a golden, crispy bottom and perfectly infused flavors. Their Chinese sausage and marinated pork combo is outstanding. The wait is worth it, as each pot is cooked to order. Pair your meal with their stir-fried veggies and homemade chili sauce for a complete experience. With its cozy atmosphere, generous portions, and attentive service, this spot delivers comfort food at its best.

Left work late tonight and New Elite is just 3 minutes west on Valley Blvd of my office. I was originally going to come try this restaurant yesterday night for Mid-Autumn Festival dinner but found out they are closed on Tuesday. We arrived at 7:30 and took a look at the menu and this is a Cantonese restaurant that serves dishes more specifically to my family’s region the Toisan (臺山) / Hoiping (開平) area of Guangdong. It was quite cool and chilly tonight and after looking at the menu, we decided on a soup and a claypot rice. Under the specialties we decided on the Tai Shan Style Salty Rice Ball (台山鹹湯圓) and the Quail & Preserved Meat Clay Pot Rice (鹌鹑腊味煲仔饭) to share. When the waitress came to take our order she asked us about a vegetable dish and recommended the Sautéed Preservee Chinese Pork Belly w/ Garlic Sprouts (腊味炒蒜苔). We were started off with some complimentary hot tea that was very fragrant and strong. First dish that came out was the Tai Shan Salty Rice Ball and it was a huge bowl for $13.90 and loaded with daikon strips, napa, salted chicken (steamed chicken that’s cured by being patted down in salt) , Chinese sausage, shiitake mushrooms, ginger, dried shrimp, green onions, cilantro and soft pillowy rice balls which are little dumplings made from the perfect mixture of glutinous rice flour and water. The broth was so warm & comforting to the stomach and soul yet flavorful with all the ingredients. The second dish that came was the claypot. We took off all the preserved meats and quail and vegetables to a separate plate poured on their special soy sauce and mixed. The rice was perfectly cooked and as always the crispy rice at the bottom was the best, it turns out the quail was preserved too. Lastly was the recommended garlic sprouts and it was the first time we ever had it and it was sautéed with some long beans and preserved Chinese pork belly (臘肉) and the garlic sprouts and long beans vibrantly green and sautéed with so much “wok hay” we could hear it from the kitchen. The garlic sprouts were crunchy and naturally sweet complimented with the long beans and thinly sliced preserved pork belly, a wonderful vegetable dish. Really appreciative of the recommendation. As we were packing our leftovers to go, we were given complimentary dessert which is 砵仔糕, a steamed dessert made from rice flour, starch and either white or brown sugar and molded into little cups and it gets the best Asian compliment that it’s “not too sweet”. It was my first time trying it but nostalgic for my mom who had it growing up in Hong Kong. I’ll definitely be back to try more of their soups, specialities, signature dishes, and even their lunch specials that’s served everyday from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

solid. I have been coming here once a week for the past 4 weeks, their 干炒牛河 (pic 3) is the best in the area. Slightly better selection than nature pagoda, and much faster too.. The boss (?) buses the front of the restaurant and cooks the clay pot rice, so she disappears sometimes but you can see her through the kitchen window cooking it.

I came with my family here for the first time. And the food is great. The eel clay pot and the seafood tofu pot is my favorite. We also ordered a duck meat plate which was a little salty because of the fermented beans, but it makes it perfect for the rice from the clay pot. Only con is the parking lot space is pretty packed here so you could use the plaza next to it since there is parking spaces there.

Clay pot rice was on point. Their taro appetizer was also really good. Would definitely come back when I’m craving authentic food from the hometown

Worst pepper & salt squid I've ever had, way too salty

很有家乡味

On this unassuming sgv strip mall lies a hidden gem of Toisanese cuisine. The flavors are Cantonese but with a distinct hint of spices and exotic ingredients. The 5 flavor goose is one of its kind in the sgv with the sweetness of the 5 flavor sauce. It is certainly different in a good way. Of note is the turtle hot pot with winter Melon. Best turtle soup so far in the sgv and can't wait to try their other turtle soup that requires a 3 hour order ahead of time. Overall this not your usual Cantonese joint but offers unique Toisanese or Taishanese flavors.

So cozy spot for authentic Cantonese Chinese comfort food. The dishes are full of flavour and made with care, a perfect spot if you're looking for home style cooking, that's clean and tasty.

A great place to eat to do family-style food. They have a great clay pot-style food and it was delicious food. The service was great and fast. My family and I ordered a lot of various dishes. We were too hungry to take some of the pictures. It was a great place to eat here.

While I appreciated the server was very nice and the restaurant was clean, I was disappointed with my meal. I had wonton soup and a rice roll with minced pork. I had been craving wonton soup and was looking forward to it. The wonton soup looked beautiful and fresh. The broth was light brown, clear, and clean. The wontons looked like they were going to be delicious! Unfortunately, everything was bland. No flavor in the meat or broth. I was surprised and let down. I added soy sauce. It kinda helped but ultimately just tasted like soy sauce water. The rice/minced pork roll was better. The sauce was good. I'm curious to try other items, as they had such a wide variety of food but I don't know if will be back.

This is a brand new restaurant that just opened not too long ago as they are still working on finishing some small things like menu books. It is located in the same plaza as Yi Fang boba. Parking can be difficult because it is shared with other restaurants in the same plaza but there is street parking. If I am correct, this use to the original green zone and then another restaurant took over and now this current one. Inside is very clean, new chairs, tables, and lighting decor. Food is pretty good. Authentic Canto Chinese food. I came here with my parents for Lunar Eve to celebrate. We got this special goose dish that is so flavorful. It was marinated with soy sauce and every bite of it is juicy and sweet. Ordered some clay pot rice, veggies and this deep fried pork belly. It was so crispy! The pork belly was marinated in this fermented bean curd and then deep fried and sprinkled with cumin and other spices on top. I'm coming back to try other Chinese dishes!

This is the new rendition of Elite Restaurant hence the "New Elite" however they do not serve dimsum. They will be opening a separate dimsum restaurant in the future. Brought to you by the same folks behind Elite. Same logo, same website. Very old school Canto food. Love the Toisan additions. Also love the five flavor goose.

Great place for chinese food! Interior looks new, very bright and clean. Service was amazing, very fast and attentive to customers. We ordered preserved meat claypot, sparerib claypot, porridge, pan fried beef noodle and mongolian beef. Everything tasted delicious. Will definitely come back!

The service was terrible. There was a lady with a short hair appears to be the owner of the restaurant sometimes would take order and bring orders to the customers table. She was very rude and literally threw the dishes on the table.

good food but too many violations to feel safe. Not very friendly staff. Maybe try it first yourself but I'll never return. My original post was taken down. Cleanliness of this place is lacking. Not what I expected as far as environment.

Food was good. Service not so much. Prices are reasonable. Need to order goose ahead of time.

Went next door to grab a drink next door and saw this new spot with people eating clay pot rice. Wonton noodles were good and reminded me of Maks noodle in Hong Kong , the veggie dish was amazing but not sure what's it called. The two clay pot rice was recommended by the waiter.. flavor was good and had a lot crispy rice on the bottom. Whenever I'm craving food from my hometown, I'll be coming here.

"The Five Flavors Goose" is absolutely delicious. The taro under the goose meat is tender and flavorful, paired with the sauce it's very tasty! The clay pot rice is also highly recommended! Very authentic Cantonese cuisine. Will definitely come again!

It's my favorite restaurant. Everything is so delicious! Highly recommend the "Five Flavor Goose". 五味鹅！五味鹅！五味 鹅！

1000% recommend this place. I had my food on time and the service was Amazing. Everyone greeted me like I was family. The ambiance was very Spectacular. Will definitely come back again.

Tastes like a nice home cooked meal, this place is sooo good ! The clay pot rice is a must. That old picture of the health department closure was because of the previous tenants and they were in the middle of a remodel, but they've updated their score.

The service was good, they are very fast. The problem were the food, I ordered chicken dish and the portions was very small, there's barely any meat ( just wings and couple peace of meat and since it was small chicken there was nothing really). The fried squid dish was chewy and salty. The price wasn't bad.

We came here because we heard that the manager from the previous Elite on Atlantic was here. Menu is still pretty small but everything we tried was delicious and very fresh. We ordered both the traditional preserved meat clay pot rice as well as the salted fish clay pot rice. Both were very flavorful. A-choy veggies were perfectly cooked. Service was very friendly and welcoming. We have been back twice and will be bringing friends!

Came here because of the name, but it doesn't taste nothing like elite. I believe it was the owner that took my order because she was trying to sell me the stuff that I didn't ask for, most likely left over from the kitchen and she just wanted to get rid of it that day. The goose plate were disappointing and the worse part is $94 without pricing on the menu, so be aware.

Food is tasty and priced reasonably. Definitely will make this a regular place with family parking can sometimes be tricky, however, worth the hassle.

Hot pot rice is their signature dish but I DO NOT recommended IT because of high asking price that is serve in a very small pot . Service is above average and friendly. Ambiance is bright but the restaurant placed far too many tables in a small space to feel comfortable. There are better restaurants to consider.

We randomly wandered in. Very clean, comfortable chairs, friendly employees, delicious food. We ordered shrimp rice rolls, win ton noodle soup, and dry beef chow fun (no gravy). All delicious and huge portions. We left with enough for two more meals. Chow Fun was my personal favorite.
