Tasty Dining

Having been in Los Angeles for over 13 years, whenever I crave dry pot, Tasty Dining immediately comes to mind. I’ve tried many spots, but this one is consistently good — always fresh, high-quality ingredients and generous portions. 💰 Dry Pot Pricing • $38 Large — serves 3–4 people • $27 Medium — serves 2–3 people Choose from lamb, beef, chicken, organ meats, vegetables, and mushrooms — customize it exactly the way you like. It was also my first time trying their viral spicy grilled fish 🔥 Different spice levels available, and the portion is just as big as their dry pot. 13年洛杉磯老店，水準一直保持。 肉類、菜、菌選擇多，仲有水煮魚，大份又抵食。 IG: socalhkfoodies

Tasty Dining on Valley Blvd in San Gabriel offers a unique menu featuring Sichuan- and Wuhan-style dry pot dishes that come standard with potato, cauliflower, celery, and soybean sprouts. You choose your protein, flavor, and spice level. I highly recommend the grilled whole fish--incredibly aromatic, packed with bold flavor, and perfect for sharing between two people. The kimchi spam fried rice on the side absolutely hits and is a must-order. The interior is a total vibe with cool decor and artwork, and the staff is friendly and helpful throughout the experience. Overall, a standout spot for flavorful, satisfying Chinese cuisine. Highly recommend.

I came here yesterday and really enjoyed the food! The dry pot was flavorful, full of fresh ingredients, and had just the right level of spice. The sausage and beef were especially delicious, and the portion size was generous. The service was friendly and fast too. Highly recommend if you’re craving authentic Chinese-style dry pot!

The Spicy Mala Dry Pot with Beef Short Ribs was absolutely amazing! The beef ribs were tender and juicy, perfectly seasoned, and full of flavor. The mala sauce was rich and aromatic, with just the right balance of numbing spice and heat. Every bite was satisfying, and the ingredients were fresh and well-cooked. Highly recommended for anyone who loves bold, spicy food — I’ll definitely order this again!

Absolutely loved this place! The mala stir-fry was perfectly spicy, numbing, and fragrant without being overly oily or harsh. The ingredients were very fresh, with lots of options to choose from, and the portions were generous. You can customize the spice level, which is a big plus. Friendly staff and great overall experience. Definitely coming back!

Really love the food here. It’s my forth time to eat in this restaurant. We ordered the catfish and beef combo — both were super flavorful and perfectly spicy! The pumpkin cakes were also delicious and crispy on the outside, soft inside. Highly recommend this place if you love authentic Chinese spicy dry pot!

The dry pot here is absolutely amazing! Super flavorful, perfectly spicy, and packed with fresh ingredients. Everything was cooked just right — bold, aromatic, and seriously addictive. You can really taste the authentic flavors, and the portion size is generous too. Definitely one of the best dry pots I’ve had. Highly recommend if you’re a dry pot lover!

I’ve had lots of roast fish and this is one of the best! The broth tastes very fresh and the sides are delicious. The fish is roasted freshly, you can taste the crispy bits even after it’s been boiling in the oil. And it’s quite affordable!

香锅真的很香，麻辣味道很舒服，不是那种死辣，越吃越上头。配菜新鲜，火候掌握得刚刚好，吃完也不会觉得油腻。服务员态度特别好，全程都很耐心，点单和推荐都很贴心，环境也干净整洁。整体体验很棒！

The mala dry pot here is really good. We ordered a large pot and chose frog legs and pork feet. The spice level was mild,which was just right for me. For friends who can't eat spicy food, we also ordered the non-spicy beef version and it was surprisingly good. There are lots of add-on options. We added Spam, tofu skin, enoki mushrooms, black fungus, and konjac, and the pot already comes with potatoes, bean sprouts, celery, and cauliflower. A huge pot, super flavorful, spicy and aromatic -- perfect with rice!

After trying countless mala spots in LA, Yipinxiang has become my permanent favorite! First, the customization is unbeatable: mix and match proteins and adjust spice to your liking (they offer non-spicy for spice-averse diners). I love the frog legs, every bite was explosive, and perfectly cooked veggies that soaked up the savory, numbing mala sauce without being greasy. The pot comes with generous house veggies, so you barely need to add extra toppings (though the wide noodles and yuba are great add-ons if you want more!). Portions are huge and prices are fair, and the single-serve pot is the best lunch deal in the area. The little details make it better: free parking in the plaza, fast service (10-15 min wait for a pot even during peak hours), and friendly staff who are happy to help with spice recommendations. If you're looking for real Sichuan mala xiang guo with fresh ingredients, massive portions, and unbeatable value, Yipinxiang is the spot. I've already been back 5 times in a month, and I'll keep coming back--10/10 recommend!

This place tasted great and the service was nice! I would recommend trying as this was also my first time trying as well!

This is our first time. The restaurant is clean but a bit small with limited amount of tables. It is not conducive for big groups. Parking can be difficult as it's located in a busy plaza with lots of eateries. Thankfully there's underground parking. We ordered through a QR code from our table. It takes the pot a while to come out. We ordered the catfish. It was delicious! We ordered a medium (rather than a large) sized which was perfect for the two of us. Thankfully we ordered mild spicy. It tasted yummy. The dry hot pot had potatoes, bean sprouts, cauliflower- like veggies, celery, and garlic. The catfish was a good amount. Rice was not included. The menu has a great selection of side dishes to complement the pot, but we didn't order any because the pot was plenty for us. We will have to return to try the other dry hot pots.

Good good good very good Very good food makes me happy happy happy Really enjoy the food here

Is delicious food and I love their dry pot sooooooooooooooooooooo much The first time try here was about 10years ago

The spicy hot pot in this restaurant tastes good, and it's ready to order. I like hot spicy. People who like spicy food will definitely like it. You can choose your own double fight. I chose beef tendons chicken wings, and some side dishes. Overall, it's very good, and it's perfect to eat with rice.

They have Good service, and also Quiet environment. I love it, Yummy! Would recommend everyone to come.

Very delicious and very authentic! It's our ti go place for dry pot, and I love the numbing spicy flavor.

食物非常好吃，非常下饭会介绍更多朋友来品尝 有时间会下次再来品尝这里的没事的 服务态度很好 环境也很好 服务生也很耐心 都来这里品尝 价格非常亲民 在舒缓的音乐的氛围中享受着美食和饮料

洛杉矶最值得回购的干锅，没有之一！ 终于来打卡朋友强烈推荐的LA一品香，结果完全超出了预期！这绝对是我在洛杉矶吃过最香、最实惠的干锅。 我们点的是招牌一品香干锅，分量真的太感人了！两个人点一锅，最后还打包了满满一盒回家。里面的配料非常丰富，我们加了肥牛、莴笋～每一种食材都吸满了秘制酱料的精华，麻辣鲜香，锅气十足，吃得人大呼过瘾。特别要夸一下里面的土豆条，炸得外酥内软，简直是灵魂所在。 南瓜饼和炒饭也好好吃！ 最重要的是，味道这么好，价格却非常亲民。人均二十几刀就能吃到这么满足的一餐，在现在物价飞涨的LA，简直是一股清流。绝对是学生党和上班族的美食天堂。 已经迫不及待想下次再去尝试其他口味的干锅了！强烈推荐给所有热爱干锅的朋友

Great service ! Portion are huge ! Taste great ! Kept driving past this place and wasn't expecting much . But was I wrong . Would recommend!

Outstanding food, flawless service, and an experience worth every visit Every dish was beautifully crafted and bursting with flavor; easily one of the best meals I've had in years

Enjoy the best authentic and delicious Chinese at Tasty Dining in San Gabriel. They serve whole fish griddle! I tried their spicy sauce and it was flavorful. The pork feet were perfectly cooked. My brother loved their shrimp griddle with veggies. Tasty Dining is your number 1 destination for comfort food. What I got: -Beef chow mein -fish griddle -lunch menu: shrimp griddle -lunch menu: pork feet griddle -white rice -Diet Coke

Tasty dining is always my go to for dry hot pot! Delicious as usual. It survives all these year for a reason. Say no more.

Love the food here. Have been here for couple of time. The flavor that I tried is garlic.

Delicious flavor dry pot! Great ambiance and friendly service. While the short rib was delicious, it was more difficult to eat meat with bone so would recommend trying one of the other options without bones. The add ons can become pricey so would recommend considering them carefully because the base is already a good amount of food; we really enjoyed the silk noodles and dried bean curd sheets to soak up the flavor. The special pumpkin cake was a great palette cleanser as a desert and had wonderful mochi-like texture.

i'm really happy that kevin took me here. i really appreciate how this bowl was shareable and we finished it all. i enjoyed the service as well! our servers were so kind to us, periodically checking in & i felt so welcomed. i have never tried dry pot, so this was definitely something new for me. spicy level: 10/10 beef tenderness: 6/10..(not my favorite. i wish it was a bit more fattier lol) chicken: 10/10 it kinda reminded me of popcorn chicken so i loved that vegetables: 10/10. not soggy and has the perfect crunch. thai chili definitely kicked my a** lol! and i can handle spice but man, it was SPICY...overall, would i recommend this place? YES. i was left full, happy & satisfied. -j ty baby for taking me i've been procrastinating on this review for so long but ive been here a few times over the years and have always enjoyed their dry pots. i haven't tried the thai chilies before but it adds a different level of spicy. i liked the chicken protein a lot would come back for that protein and the garlic flavor and potatoes and celery. jiggy loved this place so much so i'm very excited to come back here with her as this is pretty much the only place that only serves dry pots that i know of in sgv! -k

One of my favorite restaurant, you must Try the pork instant pot and it's so good!! And the service is good

Very decent dried hot pot! Chicken wings are so good! We ordered mild, and it's just what we wanted!

Rly good, if you love spicy food, try this!!!! Potato and beef love it. My friend recommend me here, and u won't regret it

We ordered a big dish and it turned out to be great. Tasty food and clean environment! I would recommend it to my friends and come back again.

Best pot in LA. So hot. Nice Food. Good service. Best environment. Will Recomend to friend to come again.

The spicy sauce in medium heat always hits so good!!. I always go for the bullfrog and meat, or the shrimp - they even devein the shrimp, so the flavors really soak in. Service is always good here, too. I love that the small size feeds two people comfortably, and the large could honestly feed up to 5 people!

Best Dry pot in LA, we have been eating for over 10 years. especially bullfrog, very fresh. Highly recommended!

非常好吃！符合中国人的口味！烤鱼超级入味好吃！牛蛙锅量巨大可以吃四个人量！牛蛙的配菜也烧的非常软弱！蔬菜不是很硬那种！土豆和大白菜都很嫩！特别下饭！下次准备去试试鲶鱼锅.！服务也特别好！nice～

I live near by and often come here. Food is great, portion is worth it. Staff are friendly.

Great food! Very delicious food, reminds me of home taste. Dry pot is very flavorful and tasty. Don't miss it. Everyone in town should give it a try. What a wonderful dinning experience at Tasty Dinning! Great service as well! Love the atmosphere here. Chill and relaxed. Along with music! Host is super friendly! Come try it if you are around!

This is my first time trying dry pot and it is so yummy! We ordered on the QR code and food came out pretty quick. We got the lamb pot with garlic flavor and mild spice and I added sausage and gluten. The only issue I had was with the gluten which was still undercooked and chewy but everything else was tasty. The sesame noodle was also really good. The sauce is nice and nutty after mixing thoroughly. Love the pickled green beans on it as well, I wish there was a little spice in it but that's okay. Restaurant is clean and service is good. There's plenty of underground parking in the plaza and just a short walking distance to Molly tea or chicha

I underestimated their definition of "master large size" because the three of us barely made a dent in the food. The dry pot is very customizable which is nice because you can each have your own small one or just get one and have it family-style. We ordered the griddle cooked beef and beef ox tripe combo and various toppings: napa cabbage, taro, fresh bamboo shoots, king oyster mushroom, frozen tofu, wild vermicelli, dried bean curd sheets, and Shuanghui sausage. We chose the spicy flavor and got medium spicy. I don't regret the spice level but it's not for the weak because they mean it. I would personally opt for mild next time so I don't need to take a break every few bites. That said, the food was delicious. The meat was so tender and flavorful and every single item was coated well in the sauce. It's also over a heat source the whole time so it stays piping hot if you mix it up. Also, don't skip out on the pumpkin cakes. I heard that they were good so I ordered them skeptically but it was so addicting that I kept eating more. It has a crispy outer shell from being fried but the inside is mochi-like so it has a chewy texture. It was pretty empty on a Monday night so they seated us right away and there's plenty of parking in the underground structure.

This little place is next to our favorite fruit tea store in SG, and we decided to try it today. As a lover of spicy Szechuan food, the dry pots on offer are varied and there are lots of customizations available with add ons and pots big enough to feed a family! We opted for the fish fillet pot with spam and crab sticks, and the two of us couldn't finish it due to all the other included ingredients such as konjac, potato sticks and cauliflower. Overall a very satisfying meal in a relaxed atmosphere with great service.

The best dry pot place in SG Valley, medium spicy is perfect, definitely have to try , the one in the picture just 46 dallor

这家店的麻辣香锅真的非常不错！菜品丰富，荤素搭配多样，锅里有牛肉、鱿鱼、豆腐、藕片、花菜、豆芽，还有各种青菜，口感很丰富。麻辣味很足，但不会过分辣到无法入口，香气十足，每一口都很过瘾。 分量非常足，适合几个人一起分享，性价比高。环境干净，服务也挺热情。推荐喜欢麻辣香锅的朋友来试试！

Dry hot pot was all the craze in 2015 but I feel like a lot of them have closed down since COVID. I'm so glad tasty dining is still open and going strong. There's 7-8 tables inside this small establishment but the minute you step in your help with the warmest welcome by the owner. She immediately sat us down and we ordered with the QR code on each table. Food was out in 5 minutes. My favorite is the beef spicy pot. You choose from medium or large upgradd for 11 dollars extra. Medium is more than enough for 2 in my opinion. There's 5 different types of spices you can choose from and I went with the traditional spicy, which has a more richness to the spices. You can of course dial up or down the spice level according to your preferences. The pots come with potatoes, celery, cauliflower, and bean sprouts. There's so much add ons that you can put into your pot from their endless choices. They even have it separated in categories to make it easier for you. Different categories include vegetables, meatballs, Mushrooms, and tofu. You can even add an entire meat choice in your existing order if you would like. It's entirely customizable which is another perk. Definitely recommend that you try if you haven't!

Went here with my wife and really enjoyed it! The food was fresh, flavorful, and came in a generous portion that was just right for two people. The shrimp and veggies were cooked perfectly, It's a small corner restaurant, but the environment felt relaxed

Came here on a Friday night with my parents and was pleasantly surprised. I enjoy dry hot pot so I was excited to try this place out. Located in a plaza on Valley Blvd, parking can be a hassle because there are other crowded businesses using the same parking lot. Street parking is often available which is what we did yesterday. This is a spacious restaurant with plenty of seating. The vibe is very casual and relaxed. We got there at the right time because we took the last available table and everyone started lining up and writing their names down to wait. We got there at about 7:30 PM which was during the dinner rush. I scanned the QR code and ordered a medium bullfrog pot, medium pork intestine pot, wuhan noodles, 2 rices and an additional beef tripe for us. Service was kind and the waitress spoke Mandarin and English. The bullfrog and pork intestine pot comes with celery, potato, bean sprouts and cauliflower. There are additional meats and veggies that you can add onto the pots but we chose not to add anything. We were able to personalize the flavor and spice level of each pot which was nice. My parents and I enjoy eating spicy food so we opted for the medium spice with the garlic flavor. The pots were each flavorful and large in portion to be honest. Medium was a good size for 2 people but we opted to try two after speaking with the waitress haha. The wuhan noodles with sesame sauce was pretty good! The sesame sauce helped cut the spicy flavor when it became a little too much for me. I would definitely recommend to anyone who likes noodles. I don't really like rice so these noodles paired well with the very spicy dry pots. Lastly, we ordered an additional side of beef tripe which I really liked! The texture was great and the flavor was nice and spicy! This place would have been PERFECT 5/5 if they had beer! I usually enjoy drinking beer when eating super spicy dry pot. I would definitely be back! :) Notes: - They offer small pot sizes during lunch. - No beer.

The food is very delicious and service is satisfied, since open til now 13 years . The service never change , taste never change , definitely will come back soon

Meat & Veggie Mountain I created and experienced an ultimate meat and veggie mountain at Tasty Dining in San Gabriel, CA. Tasty Dining specializes in Chinese Dry Hot Pot where you can select spicy, mala or non spicy sauces such as their garlic sauce and pick what proteins, seafood, veggies or noodles. This savory garlic sauce exceeded my expectations in flavor and how it coats all the protein and veggies I selected. I practically all the proteins which included beef short ribs, chicken wings, sausage, pork belly and fish tofu. FYI dry hot pot is meant for sharing, Veronica was available to help me eat this giant mountain of deliciousness! Service and ambiance is pretty standard to the Chinese restaurants in the area. If ya ever feel like eating a mountain of delicious stir fry of just a ton of meat and veggies, consider Tasty Dining.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I prefer dry pot over hot pot, especially during these cold months and seasons. Come to Tasty Dining in San Gabriel, California, where the flavors of Wuhan, China, are translated into a delicious griddle pot with customizable proteins, vegetables, noodles and so much more. We got the medium sized pot and it was enough to feed 4- very generous portions here. If you're a fan of Dan Dan Noodles, you will love @tastydiningyipinxiang 's Wuhan Hot Noodles with Sesame Sauce We had: Wuhan Hot Noodles with Sesame Sauce, Griddle Pot with customized proteins, vegetables & other ingredients

Great food and fast service. Have not been to this place for 5+ years after Covid. Syill good as before.

Very good service, always here to eat! Good food, nice environment~price are good, not expensive!

Dry pot is now my new obsession! We ordered the large fish and short rib dry pot with garlic sauce. Flavor was excellent and it was not too spicy (we picked mild). All pots can be customized to your liking. You pick the size, protein, toppings, sauce type, and spice level. Service is pleasant. You can order via QR code on the table. I loved everything about this and already looking forward to coming back soon.

Must try this shrimp and beef dry pot. Love it so much. With my friend this time, love the rice, the shrimp very fresh, beef tasty very good. Will bring my parent next time.

My go-to place every time I want to eat the pot干锅 even though it's far away The food is fresh and tasty. The price is good. The only complaint I could think of is the added sides has really small portion. But the pot portion is big enough.

Tasty Dining is one of my favorite spots to revisit anytime I am back in the 626. They specialize in Chinese dry pot, which is kind of like a mix between stir fry and hotpot. The best part is the meal is fully customizable!! You pick your sauce, spice level, dry pot size, base and toppings!! I've been here several times with my mom and family. We always order the garlic sauce and get mild or non-spicy depending on our mood. This past visit, we got their griddle cooked beef short rib combo with fish and griddle cooked chicken cartilage (my personal favorite) with spam, noodle, mushroom and rice cake add-on. All griddle pots come with bean sprouts, cauliflower, potatoes, and celery. The portions are quite big and can be taken to go!! The food is always packed with flavor and I love the variety of texture/items in the dish. The chicken cartilage was crunchy, while the fish filet is tender. The beef short rib was a bit chewy for me though. In addition to good food, their prices are fair (around $20-$30 per person) and they also have lunch special where you can order a small size pot! The staff is also super friendly!! They also have lots of seating. This is a must try in the 626.
