    2 Entrees and 1 Side Lunch Special Combo
    Austin K.

    Food here is really well priced for the portions you get. Sweet and sour pork and pepper steak with chow mien is what's pictured. All for $12.12. Pretty solid. The service is always nice but it's definitely a take out place. I wouldn't really eat inside. The whole strip area isn't really vibing like that.

    Chicken Fried Rice
    Pedro E.

    This is how is chicken fried rice looks like. Not taste, no chicken just a few. It's just rice with vegetables. Horrible taste.

    23. Sweet and Sour Chicken 26. Mushroom Chicken Chow Mein Steamed Rice
    Julia M.

    The food was pretty yummy here, just your average Chinese fast food nothing special. The prices are super cheap and they LOAD your plate up.

    31. Sesame Chicken and 28. Orange Chicken

    To be honest its not the best If you are hungry then it would kinda good The flavor are not the best at all the rice taste funny and as well the chow mein Just not good But the customer service is good

    Hot and sour soup lacks flavor, not standard ingredients
    Michelle L.

    Ordered Hot and sour soup and egg rolls. Neither of them are standard like most Asian places and unfortunately very disappointing. The hot and sour soup lacks flavor as well as many of the basic ingredients your typical hot and sour soup has. It has many things that a wonton soup would have like zucchini, mushroom, and bok choy and wonton type shrimp? Very clear liquid very plain. The egg rolls are HUGE but because they are so oily it was gross. They are like little burrito sized drenched in oil, each bite of cabbage was drenched in oil, 0 out of 10. Very disappointing in quality of food as well as waste of money.

    Food was great and fresh, this was my first time. I'll definitely be back. Affordable and took 10'min!

    Combo chow mein, orange Chicken, and sweet and Sour Pork
    Graciela S.

    I ordered from this place via Delivery. The 4 stars is for overall quality of food. Below are my personal opinions of the items I purchased Combo plate with Chow Mein, Orange Chicken, and Sweet and Sour Pork & an order of egg rolls. Pros: The food arrived quick & hot. The portions are huge and enough to share or have left overs. My favorite was the orange chicken. I thought it tasted yummy without being too sweet. The food overall wasn't super greasy. The egg rolls are huge! Like really big. There is no meat in them, which I don't mind. They arrive super hot and still very crispy and flavorful. Cons: I wasn't a huge fan of the sweet and sour pork. I found it a bit bland and it was a bit chewy for my taste. I wouldn't order it again. The chow mein was overall good, but it lacked in flavor. Nothing a little soy sauce can't fix. I really enjoyed the egg roll, but thought there was way too much filling. I think if there was some kind of protein it might help break up all the cabbage. I would have liked to have the option to choose two different sides on the app. But that's a minor inconvenience. Overall, I would definitely order from here again. I would probably not order the sweet and sour pork again. But will definitely try other entree options.

    Orange chicken and white rice

    The orange chicken is nasty it don't take like orange chicken it was hard and the rice was dry, I asked for a refund and they didn't refund me the money they are rude and charge for every sauce u ask for in the restaurant it don't say anything about them not refunding your money simply rude I DONT NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL!! Horrible customer service and the cashier has her daughter about 4 years old in the workplace unprofessional

    I 2 Entrees and 1 Side Lunch Special Combo Half and Half

    I specifically ordered 2 item combo, came out to $13.22 to be exact, orange chicken and beef and broccoli were my specified items, this picture clearly shows the order is completely wrong, and I asked for more chow main than rice, looks half and half to me, and the guy repeated the order back to me, like WTF. Like HOW, how did this happen, I definitely need answers

    25. Kung Pao Chicken

This location in Signal Hill is the closest to our home, and we have been here before. So when we had an errand to run in the area, stopped by here for carry-out, even though there was dining space available. Service was great, the food this time wasn't the greatest. It was a rainy New Years Eve, so they were running their 'Kids get free Hot Cocoa' promo, and people were taking advantage. Even with such a very small published menu, there is definitely in-n-out terminology that will help the ordering process. But if you don't know it, the cashiers have always been kind in explaining/confirming. This time was no exception. The food does take a while to be ready, since each burger is only started once the order is made. The burgers were prepared nicely for carryout in a paper box to minimize squishing, and the fries were in a separate paper bag. I got a double-double animal style, replacing the grilled onions with whole grilled onions ($6.35). In terms of the taste, the novelty has definitely been replaced by appreciation for their consistency. That being said, it wasn't a great day for toppings today...it's still whole leaves (not shredded) but there wasn't as much of it, resulting it being past wilting and getting near slimy territory (though the other burgers seemed OK). Not great. Only their spread (a thousand island like sauce, for me, tasting similar to Big Mac sauce) is available on the main menu, though one can ask for ketchup or mustard (no mayo, though). We got 3 cheeseburgers as well ($4.40 each) and the rest of our party seemed to enjoy theirs. As for the fries (2 at $2.40) each...they really need to be eaten immediately, with added salt and ketchup. It's probably the cleanest french fries one can get (just freshly cut potatoes, fried in sunflower oil), but isn't great in taste, fast food wise. They only have one size, and two servings was fine for the four of us. Having no freezers in the stores means having to use freshly hand cut fries, which sounds great, but doesn't reach the ceiling what a freshly fried Mickey D's fry can (sometimes) attain.

Though very much a forever fan of the Orange U Yummy and your Triple Buns Mix 7 match deal. Hot Honey Bun (V) style was a so so good. Global Flavors on Bao Buns for all the yum and then some not to mention those vegetable spring rolls, fries and load fries as well as bowls. Service on the last weekend was a perfect 10/10.

Easy parking in on of their 2 lots, see signs. This sign will absolutely be missed.

    When I heard that I Luv Ur Buns was closing for good after only a couple of years, it only made…read moresense for me to plan a quick excursion around the area and stop by to bid them adieu. It was a nice addition to the mini food court in Long Beach, but unfortunately, times got tough for them to the point where they had to pull the plug on their operations. I Luv Ur Buns was one of seven vendors at Steelcraft Long Beach on the southeast corner of Long Beach and Bixby. They had taken over the spot that used to be Waffle Love, and it was such a quick turnaround that on my first visit to Steelcraft Long Beach since the Waffle Love closure, I almost thought they seamlessly rebranded from waffles to bao buns lol. Signage was posted around the shipping container assigned to I Luv Ur Buns and even a signicade closer to Steelhead Coffee; the signs informed customers that they were closing and that the Sunday preceding Martin Luther King Jr Day would be their last day of business, which also happened to be the same day the LA Rams were playing in the NFC Divisional Round of the playoffs, so I almost thought Steelcraft would be jam-packed. Actually, no it wasn't even that busy, and there were several parking spots available just around Steelcraft. I definitely wanted to try a bao bun, but not a full dinner, so that left me with the two Global Flavors sections of the menu. One section was titled "Global Flavors on Bao Buns" where you basically get two bao buns. Don't think these bao buns are large by any means; I tried a couple at Sosogu sometime last year, and they're not that big either. They would have been the perfect size for a snack, but I was also curious about the other Global Flavors section, titled "Global Flavors with Rice or Fries". That section only has two line items: Mini Bowls and Loaded Fries. I didn't want fries, but when I asked about a Mini Bowl, I was informed that it was a deconstructed version of a bao bun with a small mound of rice. Wanting a little more variety, I went with the Bao Mi Mini Bowl. The menu did get a little confusing for me because I had noticed the (V), which usually stands for either vegan or vegetarian. However, they had several non-vegetarian items with (V), and that had me confused at first; like how is a bao bun with grilled pork belly vegetarian?? That's when the cashier, sporting a black nose ring, let me know that it can be ordered with a plant-based option, namely tofu. However, the cashier also mentioned the use of a shared fryer between their plant-based options and their regular options, so if you were strictly vegan, I'd think twice first. I asked how long the wait would be, and they estimated 10 minutes, which was pretty much spot on. I was given a pager that buzzed when my order was ready, and since there was plenty of space for me to eat, I was given a red tray with an "I Luv Ur Buns" sticker in the middle. The mini bowl was presented on a small tray, like one you'd use when you're giving out samples at a special event. I was also given a fork, which was another reason why I ordered a Mini Bowl over two bao buns as I wanted to keep my hands clean. Besides the grilled pork belly, the Bao Mi also comes with hoisin sauce, cucumber, jalapeno, onion, and cilantro. All of what I just mentioned tasted pretty good, though not necessarily as good as what I had at Sosogu last year. Then again, the Bao Mi is Vietnamese-style whereas Sosogu is Japanese, but between the two, which are the two cheapest options at $10, the Bao Mi was the most popular alongside their Korean-style, called Seoul on Fire. I'm pretty sure I would have liked Seoul on Fire better as it comes with Bulgogi beef, but the grilled pork belly was pretty good too. Just not as fatty as I would have liked. However, I didn't like their use of a wrapping paper between the tray and the food. That's because several grains of rice got stuck on the wrapping paper, and it was hard to pluck them off with my fork. As a result, it got kind of messy eating the mini bowl, and I almost thought I'd drop a piece of pork belly in the process! Luckily, I didn't, but I don't think that would be a problem with the bao buns since the bao bun from my mini bowl didn't stick to the wrapping paper at all. One thing I observed that I thought was kind of cool was witnessing the cashier hand deliver a tray of bao buns to an employee from Elio's Wood Fire Pizza, directly across from I Luv Ur Buns. I wouldn't say I love I Luv Ur Buns, but it made for a nice quick snack albeit a little pricey for a small bowl. I'm glad I gave them a try before they closed for good, and I made sure to bid them a proper adieu by returning the tray to them. They also had a small tray of I Luv Ur Buns stickers by their order window, so I made sure to pick up a couple as souvenirs. Thank you I Luv Ur Buns for serving the LBC for the past couple years, and sorry to see you go! Best wishes to Sonya, Mandy, and the rest of the team on their future endeavors.

Our order has been, and always will be, a chicken teriyaki burrito with everything, add avocado, as a combo, with a side of their jalapeno torreados.

Adding the avocado costs a couple bucks but totally transforms the burrito into a calorie-dense behemoth that'll keep you going all day.

Plus going all the way with an order of the large fried zucchini and chicken quesadillas which they added both the red and green chili sauce. You gotta have the ranch dressing to go with the mushroom and zucchini. Food is quite nice. Burgers are pretty big and for the price, 10.95 it was worth it. I've alway had a nice experience and the food has alway been great. It's fast food take out but quite tasty. I got my fix in for the next year or so, lol.... It's worth it.

Today they were shorthanded so when dining in I had to get my own food. Normally someone brings it to the table. Not an issue. It's always nice and quiet inside. Got to watch the soccer game there today. Thank you FANTASTIC!!!
