Had a great time and delicious meal!! We came with a big party of 13 and Maggie helped us out a ton to guide our ordering to feed everyone (especially since we have varied dietary restrictions). Thanks so much and we hope to be back! read more

I'm so happy this place exists just 20 mins away from downtown LA. The service and setting is just lovely and it really sets the mood. The food is well flavored and thankful for the kitchen not leaning on the salt to make a dish flavorful. There's a deep sense of delicate ness in most of the dishes- especially in the dough used from the buns to the pancake/lichuns.. I enjoyed it so much that im already looking forward for my next meal dishes. I also love the fresh tea and would recommend getting a teapot serving. (Note: although I liked the simplicity of the bathroom, I felt mismatched. You know how in good Japanese/Japanese owned sushi places, the bathroom is as clean and elegant? I hoped the same thing here.) read more

It was our first time here at Bistro Nas! I first heard about this place a few years back so I've been meaning to try this place. We came for Mother's Day and it was busy. Of course we had a reservation so that helped us with the waiting. The plaza is a bit crowded so if you're lucky you'll find a good parking spot. Otherwise it's a little bit of a battle because there's a gym in the plaza as well. Decor and ambiance creates a nice out of the country feel and it is beautiful. Noise level was loud and hectic, rather than a calming relaxing meal. Everyone was talking loudly to hear over each other. The service was friendly, but they do need to be clear about prices and quantity. Menu items with prices were clear and as is, but certain items were not such as the recommended dishes by staff. Market price items should be clarified on size they have available. Honestly we thought we ordered an single dish item with a set price. We were brought items we did not ordered but was on our bill. Most likely staff added it in or misheard. Since it was our first time, we weren't sure what to expect so we let it slide since staff was friendly. Just be careful and double check what you are ordering. We expected it to be busy but it did seem a bit chaotic inside. For a more upscale food and pricing, it should be a bit more managed, but it was a busy dinner time. The food itself was delicious. Everything was flavorful so it was great tasting what they have to offer. Chinese food but a little bit more creative with taste. Bill came out pretty high, over $350+. Delicious but debatable if it's equivalent to the experience. They do need to improve on the chaos and the clarity and transparency with the staff on orders. That way there won't be misunderstandings. Props to the chef though, food was delicious. read more

The food here is INCREDIBLE!! A definite must-try. Would definitely recommend the braised pork belly and scallion pancakes -- although everything we had was incredibly delicious. The stewed seafood feast was so comforting and warm with an almost refreshing taste that I would most certainly come back for. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the place is absolutely packed, clearly for good reason. Wonderful service, and a great time! read more

Amazing food, service and ambiance. Not sure what else you can ask for. Make sure you order the duck at least a week in advance! Experienced so many different Chinese dishes I never would've imagined. Some of my family are vegetarian and there were lots of options for them too. I think you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. read more

My friend highly recommended that I try Bistro Na's, raving about its excellent quality and authentic Chinese cuisine, so I was excited to give it a try. We made a reservation on OpenTable for dinner about a week in advance. We didn't know this until the day of our reservation, but Bistro Na's was actually the first and only Chinese restaurant in the greater Los Angeles area to hold a Michelin star, which they held in 2019 and 2021. The restaurant has since lost its star, but remains on the Michelin guide.  Our reservation was at 5pm on a Sunday. The inside is grand and ornate with architecture and decor inspired by imperial China. Oddly, it was a bit empty. I got the Lychee Galaxy Drink, which came in a large mason-jar style glass. It was lukewarm. The drink reminded me of something you'd get at a casual boba shop or the 626 night market. The first dish to arrive was the Black Cod Stew with Tofu, which was essentially a mapo tofu with fish nuggets on top. I found it a little bland and unexciting.  Next, we tried the Crispy Shrimp, which was one of their signature dishes. This one was actually really good. The shrimp were lightly glazed in a sweet sauce and had a satisfying lightly crispy exterior.  But on that note - I feel like a lot of the dishes we ordered turned out to be unexpectedly sweet. The Crispy Shrimp was sweet. The fried mushrooms were sweet. The Braised Abalone & Pork Belly with Chinese Puffy Pie dish was fun - I'll give them that. I liked making my little hamburger and the protein was very tender... but flavor-wise... It was just sweet. As standalone dishes, they probably would have been fine, but after a while, I got sick of everything being sweet. Or, to be more specific, I got sick of everything only being sweet. I think they needed more savoriness to balance out the sweetness and make the dishes more interesting.  It was like the sweet dishes were too sweet and the savory dishes were not savory enough. The mapo tofu was disappointing. The scallion pancakes were nothing special. The bonito fried rice needed salt. Overall, I felt very let down. Even without the Michelin distinction, I would have found the food lacking in quality. So considering that this restaurant is currently on the Michelin guide, I was very disappointed. read more

The service here is genuinely lovely. There was no consistent wait staff, but each person that approached our table was kind and attentive. One of our waitresses mixed and served our Beijing Zhajian Noodles tableside (maybe it was just because we looked a bit out of place, but it was appreciated regardless). You can probably find similar food for considerably cheaper (many items on the menu don't list the price, just state "market price" so it's a bit scary to order), especially in the SGV, but the warmth of the staff and the atmosphere here make it worth a visit on its own.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Dishes from the end of the Xing dynasty are rare and luxurious. There are items on this menu found nowhere else but back in Beijing. The flavors aren't as salt-heavy as back in the mainland, and sometimes there are substitutions (like broccoli in the jellied pork) but overall a fun tour of regional dishes. The food is entertaining and certainly worth a fest for the eyes and senses. But there will be also a plainness to some of the options, like the prime rib being served well done, that don't always show off the ingredients best characters. The dessert platter is very pretty but fairly common tea cakes done in a fancier presentation (the use of figs and dates made for fun versions of the pastry wheels and the stuffed mochi bites are addictive. Service was team-based and excellent throughout the busy evening. Reservations are a must here unless dining late or very early. Parking is a competition at peak hours in the shared single street level lot. The decor is gorgeous and ultra high ceilings give you a feeling of subdued opulence. Quite enjoyable, if a bit pricey, but the presentation and service demands the higher prices here. And the non-alcoholic cocktail options are really fun and flavorful - I had the yuzu lemon iced tea and its was thoroughly refreshing and not overly sweetened. read more

It was my first time visiting Bistro Na's, and I am beyond impressed! This place absolutely hits the spot, which makes it perfect for when I have guests over. The dining ambiance is beautifully elegant, and the service was top-notch. Every dish we tried was refined, full of flavor, and stunningly presented. It's a rare find where the food and the upscale atmosphere match perfectly. I can already tell this is going to be my new go-to spot for entertaining and hosting. Highly recommend! read more

I'm going to say something sensational and perhaps even controversial but I am not impressed. For a 1 Michelin star that's Ali Wong's "go-to spot," Bistro Na's made me realize what a peasant palate I have. Maybe I'm just not made for the finer things in life or maybe, just maybe, I'm a pragmatic person who isn't frivolous enough to waste my hard-earned money with the overpriced meal here. And before you go and call me cheap, which I don't mind b/c like an "a-hole," everyone has an opinion, I just can't justify the return on joy relative the $$$ I'm paying. I don't mind spending $$$ for a meal, but a $$$ meal not only needs to correlate to quality, flavor, taste and service, but in this day and age in which gas prices can climb up to $8 (with the war) and increasing inflation and commodity costs, it has to correlate to the value too. Ambience and decor is beautiful here. 5 stars. If you want to feel like an emperor or empress, you better get ready to feel like royalty because of the setting - classy and of a time once forgotten. Service - servers were attentive but service isn't just that. It includes the overall dining experience of service and care, like how promptly did you get your drinks and did they arrive before or after the food arrived. Our main entrees arrive in lightning speed but the two bowls of rice we ordered, and because I'm Chinese, I must have my rice with my entree. It didn't come and we had to ask someone about it. We also ordered the pea sprouts with mushrooms. We were 75% done with the entrees and the veggie dish still didn't come yet. The table with a family of 4, who came in after us, got their food and then their chayote leaves veggies dish and still...no pea sprouts in site to be coming towards our table. Disappointing... Let me get to the food now. Quality - 5 stars. Taste - 5 stars, so food gets 5 stars. Crispy Shrimp ($28 for regular and $48 for medium) this was all I wanted to try and I had high expectations. It definitely delivered. Crispy and easy to eat even with the shell on. Flavor is reminiscent of Honey Walnut Shrimp without that creamy mayo flavor and mouthfeel. Diced Black Pepper Honey Angus Beef ($46 regular and $69 medium) was super tender and cooked to medium rare / rare perfection. Sweet savory flavor with a hint of black pepper - perfection also. We got the regular portion (since it was for me and a +1) and while they serve it on a long oval plate to make it look like it's a bigger portion, the big plate only highlights the 7 pieces you get. Yes, 7 pieces of beef. Pea Sprouts with Mushrooms ($24 regular) - pea sprouts are one of my favorite veggies. The dish was flavorful but lack something - then, I realized what it was. Where's the garlic??? Typically, veggies in Chinese cuisine are cooked in the wok with garlic. Without it, this dish fell short. Two bowls of rice ($3 each) - rice just seems like a given and should accompany the dishes that are ordered. Fine, go ahead and charge it à la carte but as least make the price make sense. Maybe that's how they make you want to order the fried rice instead. When you're paying $6-$12 for small bowls of white steamed rice, you might as well pay for a $18 shrimp fried rice!?! Value - no brainer here but 1 star. I just can't justify the price tag. Food is good but was it mind-blowingly good to what you pay? No, not all. If you're rich and money flows in easily and you don't care about just throwing money where ever and whichever way, more power to you; and you should definitely eat here. But for someone who works really hard for her money and want a high quality meal at a reasonable price, also I ain't no baller man, I will never be coming back. It's one of those "one-and-done" places for me. Maybe one day when I win the lottery...wait, no, even if I won the lottery, I can't. It just isn't worth it. Sorry. 5 stars - ambiance 2 stars - overall dining experience 5 stars - food 1 star - value 3.25 total stars read more

Have come to the restaurant too separate occasions now, once with friends, and once with family. TLDR, The service is impeccable, and decor is amazing, but unfortunately, the food looks great but just doesn't taste good. The first time I went, my friend, and I got the fried rice, which had almost no fragrance and barely seem fried at all. Under seasoned, not good. We ordered the pea shoot leaves which were stirfry with mushrooms. The quality of the ingredients were definitely there, but unfortunately, there was zero flavor. I really appreciate my food to be light and to not have very much salt, but this had almost 0 salt, and absolutely no garlic was added to it which made the flavor disappointing. Our starter/appetizer was the gelatinous pig feet. The presentation was excellent, and it was great to look at, furthermore, would even say the ingredients tasted relatively high quality, but again there was no flavor. Their braised pork belly is good, not great. I think it's quite tender but not enough sauce. This was probably the best thing that we got there. Finally, we got the fish (whatever is in the photo). Again, looks great but literally no flavor despite being surrounded by aromatic vegetables. Quite bland, would have greatly preferred a traditional steamed fish over this, or honestly just some soy sauce read more

Higher end elevated Chinese food but honestly EVERYTHINGGGG was absolutely delicious!! the decor is stunning and feels like you're in a palace, which makes it feel like you are coming for the overall experience. Wish I could try the Peking duck next time but everything we tried so far is delicious! Pretty pricy but worth to try. Recommend coming here with at least 4 people to try more dishes. Food: eggplant, shrimp, pork wraps. Tofu skin salad, drunken chicken, pork belly. note if it's your birthday they give out long life noodles, first timer! read more

I tried Bistro Na's at Eeeeatscon and I opted for their combo, which came with a drink. The drink was too sweet and tasted very syrupy but the food made up for it. The crispy shrimp was really good. I wish they'd peeled the shell, but some people might like that extra crunch. The tofu skin salad was the absolute standout. I loved the simplicity of it. It's a great neutral dish that I want to eat again. They have a very extensive menu, and this experience only made me want to try their other stuff more. I'll definitely visit the actual restaurant in person next time. read more

Service was 4/5! Ambiance 5/5 Food 5/5 Honestly ? Been wanting to try this spot for a long time and finally came here today! Food was high quality and presentation is 5/5. Dishes flavor were all balanced, nothing was over powering and salty. They know how to just create flavor, and the flavors were just right. We tried many dishes! Even the fried rice was 5/5. Price is up there but high end quality food! Service was amazing first half of meal and the service disappeared second half. Had to call someone to box our food and order dessert. Overall 4.5/5!

The service here is unreal. The whole experience feels like you are getting more than just a dinner, which is a lot of fun. The plating, the care, and the details all rock. The food is elevated for sure. It is a little pricy but you probably expect that going in. I found some dishes like the beef funs and the secret tofu to be superior, while some classics like the shrimp fried rice to just be ok. read more

My wife and I took my mom here on Mother's day to see what the hypes are about The parking was lil crowded due to mothers day and on a Sunday, luckily we had a reservations, because it was extremely busy and seemed lil chaotic After we're seated the service was fast and attentive, BUT the lady who too our order was lil misleading, and kind of over sold us on some dishes. After we were told a dish was not available she referred a "cheaper" alternative fish dish that was "$36" only, but when the bill came it turned out to be $36 per LB and that dish alone was lil over $100. Tho at the end they did remove a "$16" tea we never ordered nd never received and a "$9" dessert we never ordered either, the bill was still over $350 plus tip came out to be lil under $400 for a party of 3 Don't get me wrong, the food was delicious and the chef did cook and slayed, but for the price is lil too much for ordinary Chinese dishes Again maybe I didn't order the dishes that won the Michelin stars All other services was amazing nd attentive, everyone was extremely nice and polite the interior was classy and dinning areas are clean, with beautiful traditional Chinese decor Would I come back, maybe. But definitely will make sure to 2x confirm the prices instead of just listing to the suggested dishes b4 ordering them. read more

Came here with my family to celebrate a special occasion. My father-in-law made a reservation, and in the reservation notes, he requested to reserve a Peking duck, which he knew he had to ask for a week in advance. Unfortunately, we were told that you have to call to reserve it, and that the Opentable reservation notes are not read. That was a bit of a disappointment. We ended up ordering the Combo D, which came with around 6 appetizers/entrees, and we supplemented it with the crispy shrimp, prime angus rib, and smoked duck. We thought the entrees ranged from just ok to very good. The ones that were highlights were the smoked duck, crispy shrimp, imperial beef, and kurobata braised pork. We found the prime angus rib to lack flavor and was a bit dry. The chicken with abalone sauce dish just tasted like soy sauce chicken. The other dishes (bok choy, sea bass) didn't really stand out and were just average. Overall, I think we had very high expectations given the reputation, and it didn't quite reach the hype we had. The food overall was still good, but given the price, the service left a lot to be desired. When ordering, the waitress told us some of the dishes we wanted were unavailable, and when she checked with the kitchen staff, it was then available to order. After ordering, we were then told that a different dish we ordered was not available! It just seemed Iike staff were very unclear regarding what was available. We ordered dessert with our entrees, and after finishing our meal, we were brought the check, without the dessert being served until we reminded the staff. I do have to say, the servers who were refilling our drinks were very on top of it. Still, I would expect a high end restaurant to be a bit more organized. read more

I love Bistro Na's. It's upscale, and it makes you feel that way--not just through decor, but through service and flavor. What I respect most is that they don't try to be like everyone else. They take risks. They do things differently. The flavors are distinctive because the kitchen isn't afraid to create. That kind of creativity--from team to customer--deserves respect. The service is very good. You can feel the structure behind it. Organized, attentive, and consistent. It doesn't feel accidental. I always start with the pear drink to warm up the belly. Simple, comforting, and thoughtful. And the jumbo shrimp is a must. It's one of those dishes you remember. If you're looking for refined Chinese dining that tries to push itself a little further, give it a try. It won't disappoint. read more

Bistro Na's has been on my wish list for awhile, but it took DineLA Restaurant Week's new menu to finally bring me in. Na's has an unassuming exterior and location in an unassuming, mostly Asian-vendors outdoor mall in Temple City. Street level parking can be a challenge; they have an underground garage also. Inside, however, Na's has a luxe and regal air, with much carved woodwork evoking an Imperial Chinese courtyard. The walls are adorned with Chinese musical instruments, which are heard in the background music. Na's has garnered a Michelin star in past years, and is repeatedly on the LA Times Top LA Restaurants list. Reservations for Na's can be made through Open Table. Sans reservations, you can join a Waitlist on Yelp either through Yelp or on the iPad in the restaurant. I'd recommend a reservation; the place fills up fast. The DineLA menu was an excellent introduction to Bistro Na's cuisine, with all the selections off the regular menu, and most being popular choices as well. Alas, Na's famous Peking Duck is missing; even on the regular menu it requires one week's advance notice. The DineLA menu includes 4 courses--appetizer, main, rice/noodle and dessert--plus a beverage. It's meant for 2 for $65, but a big eater like myself could probably have finished it solo. Here's what I ordered: 1) Na's Secret Tofu. Rectangles (8) of tofu topped with spinach, dipped in an egg batter and fried. Served with a slightly sweet scallion sauce. Loved it, but I've read good things about another app choice, the chili tofu skin salad, as well. 2) Crispy Shrimp. One of Na's most famous dishes, it did not disappoint. Shrimp are beheaded and de-legged, butterflied and lightly fried, glazed with a sweet hawthorn (a fruit that looks like a crabapple) and dried chili pepper sauce. The sauce was sweet and not spicy, much to my liking. Much of the taste is in the shells, so I ate both the shrimp and shells. I discarded some of the shells after a few chews, but in the future will just swallow them all. So delish! 3) Beijing Zhajiang Noodles. Handmade noodles beautifully plated unmixed, with a myriad of fresh veggies alongside, with a cup of Zhajiang sauce (pork belly, possibly fermented beans?) and a pipette of a dark acidic liquid (Worcestershire-like). It's mixed together tableside. The sauce was strong (not spicy) and overpowered the veggies, but good. 4) Sweet Fried Rice Cake. Six little rectangles fried sticky rice, served with sweet condensed milk for dipping. Yummy, loved the crisp bite then the chew. The other dessert choice, Lucky Koi Milk Pudding, is also popular. 5) Crystal Pear Drink. I didn't know what to expect of this drink, which you can get hot or iced. I chose iced. It looked and tasted like a slighty fruity iced tea. I did not taste pear, but it was refreshing nevertheless. The other options were black or green tea (hot or iced), or a mimosa. Overall a fab meal. Service was okay. I only saw my order-taker once. The food was brought over and cleared by others, and a man in a suit (manager? non-Asian), took care of my check. Will definitely return! read more

I really really wanted to love this place but I think it's kind of fell short of my expectations. First, service and vibes were amazing. Very friendly and attentive staff and the place is beautifully decorated. Truly a great experience. Now, the food. For appetizers, we got the poke (which came on a bed of chocolate chips - interesting and not for me) and the scallop on zucchini (felt like it was missing something). For mains, we got the sea cucumber with beef tendon (tasty but not insanely amazing), pork belly (a MUST and arguably the best dish here), crispy shrimp (also a must, I think it's what they're known for), fried rice (a little bland for me but decent) and the pea sprouts? with mushroom (also a little bland for me but not bad). The only reason why I couldn't give it five stars was because at this price point and how everyone talks about this place, I was expecting to be blown away. TIP: get a reservation on opentable. When we got there at 5:10pm on a Sunday, it said that the estimated wait time was 75-90 minutes on their tablet. read more

Had lunch at Bistro Na's during DineLA and had high expectations but was very lackluster with terrible service. They were understandably very busy with DineLa but the experience was so chaotic. The hostess almost gave our table away to another party even though we were ahead on the waitlist and we had to let them know they had the wrong party. The ambiance overall felt very fancy at first but quickly got really loud because they were fully booked. We got the DineLa set with secret tofu, crispy shrimp, shrimp fried rice, and sweet fried rice cakes along with black tea. The server accidentally gave us mimosas when we ordered black tea so we let him know it was wrong. Apparently they were getting our table mixed up with another table which led us always getting the wrong food. Mind you it took so long for us to get our drinks that we had to remind the server we didn't even get our tea yet. The table next to ours ordered at the same time as us and by the time they finally brought our tea, they were already on the main dish. While we were waiting for our drinks, the server gave us another wrong dish which was the koi fish pudding. Again we let her know it's not ours which I thought was hilarious since the only thing we had were our plates, chopsticks, and tablecloth. After a while of waiting, we finally got our food. We did however have to ask the servers again about our appetizer because all of our main dishes arrived except the appetizer. I think we talked to most of the staff at this point for our food. We did get it in the end but very late. Na's secret tofu (2/5): Extremely bland and didn't have much flavor. Tasted like regular deep fried tofu and I drenched the tofu with the sauce for more flavor but even then, it was very subtle. Crispy shrimp (5/5): My favorite dish! It tasted similar to honey walnut shrimp but without the walnut and mayo. The shrimp was extremely crispy and super flavorful. I normally don't eat the peel but it was so good since it was deep fried and very crispy. Shrimp fried rice with bonito flakes (3/5): It tasted like standard fried rice and nothing really special. I did like that the portion was big and there were full shrimp pieces in the fried rice. Sweet fried rice cakes (4/5): I really enjoyed this dessert! Crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. The condense milk really paired well with the rice cake to make it sweeter. Overall, the experience and service were disappointing. I also wasn't a fan how the server would be staring at you when you're tipping because you're pressured to tip well for subpar service. read more

Came for the DineLA menu and left relatively satisfied. The ambiance inside is a just a tad bit more upscale than you'd typically see at a Chinese restaurant. The restaurant was extremely busy, and it seemed that service was on the slower end than it typically is - probably from the influx of DineLA eaters. We had the Drunken Chicken as the appetizer - this was nothing special but it wasn't bad. Very simple flavors on colder chicken. I personally found it hard to down with nothing else other than just the chicken so I thought it was whatever's - again not bad though. For the main, we got a heavy hitter entree with the Braised Beef Tendon and Brisket with Tomatoes. This was the best dish of the meal, and I would 100% come back for this again. The flavors were well balanced, but I just wish I had gotten my more carb-y dishes to come out at the same time. Again, the restaurant was extremely busy so it took a while until the rice dish came out. For the rice dish, we got the Shrimp Fried Rice with Bonito Flakes - this was a relatively straightforward and simple dish as well, better received than the drunken chicken. It tasted as expected, not surprised here. For the dessert, we got the Sweet Fried Rice Cake and it was a great way to end the meal. The texture was reminiscent of mochi, and there was just a slight hint of sweetness that left my mouth wanting more. Overall, this would've been closer to 3 stars than 4 had the braised beef dish and fried rice cake not been so damn good. Would come back again! read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Food was absolutely amazing, everything came out timely and at the perfect temperature. Be sure to reserve ahead of time if you want the Peking duck because that was hands down the best thing. We were very lucky in getting to try the pate (which is dependent on how much liver they can get from the ducks). The ambiance is very elegant and warm. But the thing that stood out the most was the service! There was a mix up with our order and the general manager Daiano helped us and frequently checked in. He was so kind and very welcoming. read more

It's been years since I came to bistro Na. The last time I came, all I remember was their dishes were very expensive but the food was just mediocre. I came here last month around Xmas. I didn't make reservation but luckily after a short wait, they have a table for me. I ordered the Na's red soup chicken, tofu with cod, stir fry spinach, pan fried chive pocket. My favorite was the chicken. There's a bit spiciness to it but not the type that'll burn in your mouth. You can also taste how tender the chicken is. The tofu with cod was alright. They fried the cod and put it on top of the tofu. It's an acceptable dish. The chive pocket has a thin and crispy skin but the filling is a tad saltier for my taste. Service is top touch. The decor is nice. Your server is mostly available. Plus they have other staff who will pour you tea and even little things like vinegar. I think it's little things like these that really made them stood out read more

December 2025 I came to Bistro Na's with our family to celebrate my 40th birthday and reserved a private room for the occasion. The staff was very accommodating, professional, and attentive, which made the experience feel special and well-organized from start to finish. This place is very pricey, and we opted for the prix fixe menu for our group. While the presentation and service were polished, I'll be honest--the food itself wasn't a great fit for young children. The flavors and dishes leaned more toward an adult palate, which made it challenging for the little ones to enjoy the meal. We spent over $2k for 10 people, and while I don't regret celebrating here, I don't feel the private room prix fixe menu was worth the cost for our particular group and needs. That said, I would still come back, just not for the private room or prix fixe option. I'd return for a more casual dining experience where the food and value would better match what we're looking for. read more

Upscale Chinese restaurant that's on the Michelin guide (no star for 2025). Reservations are definitely recommended. Came for Thanksgiving lunch and we were seated about 5 min after checking in when they opened. I ordered a pot of tea and they brought out tea cups right away without the teapot. We waited a while without tea but I saw other tables had received their tea pots. So, I asked the server who said it would be 10 min and then brought it out shortly after (I think he forgot). Two of our dishes came out before our rice, so I asked about the rice and they said the purple rice wasn't ready yet, which was strange as they just opened and I would think all steamed rice would be ready for service at open. It also came out shortly after I asked. They charge rice by the bowl ($3) but it's a big mound of rice Crystal pear drink pot (hot) it's sweet and comes in a big metal pot so there was a good amount 3.5/5 Crispy shrimp 5/5 Na's drunken chicken (meh, would skip) 2.5/5 Baby bok choy with morel mushrooms 4.5/5 Pea shoots with mushrooms (standard) 4/5 Beef with garlic (spicy and tender) 4/5 Pork belly (good flavor) 5/5 Expensive for the portions, but glad I tried it once. $250 before tip for a group of 5 with some leftovers. We left content. The restaurant is very clean and the food was good and not greasy. read more

My first review for 2026! Excited to eat here again. The ambiance still looks great as usual. Now, the main menu looks like a book - it has all the photos and details of every dish. It looks awesome! We had the following with a side of steamed rice and organic purple rice (I had this one): * Diced Black Pepper Honey Angus Beef - We got the regular size for this dish. The beef was so tender, juicy and flavorful! * Na's Braised Kurobuta Pork Belly - I picked this one in regular size too. It was a generous serving. The pork was delicious. We also like the mini radishes that came with it. * Stir Fried Pea Sprouts with Mushrooms - Yummy vegetables! This is one of top veggie dishes here. It smelled good and was tasty. * Imperial Court Cheese Pudding - Kumquat with milk and rice wine pudding. Very light and refreshing to eat. * Chrysanthemum Tea - Good tea to drink during meals. I thought the glass tea cups were a nice touch. Our server was very attentive and made sure we had everything we need. Will definitely come back here again! read more

When a restaurant has service you will think about for months after, that's when you know it's really special. Our server, June, was very sweet, attentive, and thoughtful.. Deeno (hopefully that was his name) made us feel like we were family. We were constantly checked on and taken care of As far as the food, everything was delicious. This place is something special and I'm so glad we listened to the hype. read more

My dad raved about how good this was when he last came, he convinced my whole family to come and try it out. I thought the food was good but I don't know if I'd come here all the time. It's quite expensive for what you get. I understand it's the quality of the food and its farm to fork but I just don't think it's worth it to me. My parents really like it though. They said they could really taste the ingredients. Not pictured was a simple peasprouts with garlic dish that they LOVED. They said it was the best peasprouts they've ever had. My favorite was the crispy shrimp, it was fried with the shell on and you could the shell like a chip. The shrimp itself was sweet and the sauce that it was coated in wasn't over powering. Glad I got to try a bit of everything but not worth it to me. read more

If you want fancy gourmet elevated Chinese food, come here! My family returned for a birthday dinner in one of the private rooms. These are some of my all-time favorites: 1. Tofu 2. Steak 3. Braised-pork 4. All the stir-fry veggie 5. Chicken soup This time we also got the Alaskan King Crab cooked 3 ways and the Na's Prime Angus Rib amongst other delicacies! It was delicious and service was excellent. A special occasions place for sure! Or sometimes I hop in for a lunch/dinner for 2 or 3 when I am in the mood for 1 to 5 above. read more

Best Chinese restaurant in America. We don't need to go to China now. We ordered the King Crab four ways and it was glorious. We also ordered the lamb, pea sprouts, beef dish, pork glutinous dish, and fish desserts. The line was into the parking lot but we had a private room. Best restaurant in California. We will be back for the Peking Duck. Happy Yelping! read more

Bistro Na is an upscale Chinese restaurant with amazing food so it's perfect for special occasions. Make sure to make a reservation, or you might face a long wait or even be turned away. The interior is beautifully decorated, giving off a royal court vibe, and the servers are fantastic and very knowledgeable about each dish. You can tell they put a lot of care into every plate, as everything is beautifully presented. One of my favorite dishes is the crispy shrimp, it was light, sweet, and perfectly crispy. I also love the Chayote Leaves Salad which is seasonal, but a must-try if it's offered! There's parking in the plaza, but it fills up quickly because of all the other restaurants, so it took us a little while to find a spot. I will definitely be back! read more

A Hidden Gem! Found this restaurant on the Michelin guide and it was exactly what I was looking for! Yummy flavors, great quality, and even better service! The decor is beautiful and the lighting is great. I enjoyed the crispy shrimp and shrimp fried rice as well as the fish with sweet and sour sauce. We had the jasmine green tea and yuzu sake as well. Everything was delicious and the service was amazing. read more

Had a family dinner at 7:30 PM on Sunday night and there were still people lined up waiting to get seated. Granted it was still Chinese NY weekend. Loved the chili oil chicken and the smoked pork ribs (outstanding). If you get the king crab (I wouldn't get it here again), definitely add the noodle option as the texture was perfect. Didn't get to try the peeking duck but maybe next trip. Lots of options for food in this area but this can be a great option depending on what you order. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for awhile now. I didn't realize how much TC has changed. Good thing I made a reservation as there was a wait. wait. The moment you walk in, you are teleported to another place that's NOT what you'd expect in the SGV. Immediately off the bat, I really loved the decor. The haegeum instruments overhead was what caught my attention right away. I sat in the table along back wall in the center of the restaurant. What a view. We sat for awhile watching the hustle and bustle of orders being taken, food being delivered to tables, and ones be cleared for waiting patrons. It did take awhile before any server acknowledged we were there. The bus boy made eye contact and immediately called our server over. By this time, we reviewed the extensive book of a menu, looking on Yelp for their most popular dishes, and making sure to order them. We did over order for a party of 4. Tofu skin salad 4/5 Crispy shrimp 4/5 Seafood Feast (crispy rice) 5/5 2 × Pork belly & abalone with puffy pie 5/5 Mini Dessert platter 4/5 Long life noodles 4/5 Jug of watermelon juice 3/5 Shredded pork DIY wrap (stb like mu shu pork) 3/5 Overall, it was a unique experience, something different from your usual XLB or Chinese seafood restaurant in the SGV. Would definitely come back and bring Hubs as he didn't get to enjoy this 1st with us. read more
