There was about 10 minute wait during a busy weekend lunch hour. My date and I waited patiently and was thrilled when they swapped our previous table to a booth table. Win! Table service was quick. The server guys kept coming by asking what we wanted to order. We placed an order for a Chicken and Vegetable Pan Fried noodle dish and a Broccoli Beef dish. Both were amazingly fresh and good. Would love to come back because their menu is calling on me. Parking is a large lot, so shouldn't be any issue.

My family and I came over for lunch, and it was loud and crowded on a Sunday at about noon. We…read morechecked in and got a number. It took about ten minutes for us to get a booth table, but we were waiting inside. The staff member called numbers firstly in Cantonese then in English. After we sat down, the waiting line persisted past 1 pm. Similarly, the bustling loudness continued on during the course of our meal. Food arrived quickly, however. The price point for the delicious food is competitive. We got French-style filet mignon ($18.99), braised tofu in brown sauce ($14.99), chicken chow mein ($14.99), and a steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork ($5.99). A pot of rice was included in our meal. The steamed rice noodle roll with barbecue pork was a nice appetizer that arrived first. I enjoyed how the French-style filet mignon was garnished with Thai basil, black pepper, and ginger. The meat was flavorful and tender. The braised tofu in brown sauce was consistently hot on the inside. The delicious brown sauce soaked throughout the vegetables. The chicken chow mein didn't have a lot of sauce, but it was still delicious with a lot of meat included. Overall, it would be nice to visit again outside of a peak time because the food prices are competitive. The menu is expansive, and the breakfast selections look interesting. The atmosphere during the Sunday lunch peak time was consistently bustling. I think the restaurant started to play Chinese music loudly at random points so that people could finish dining more quickly.

The food was for sure a standout! We were a large party and order a lot of items and also ordered from the set menu.

I feel this place is the place to go if you have a large dining party, because the set menu will have something that everyone can enjoy. Overall, I liked it a lot and will definitely be back.

The dish is a spicy chicken stew made with Sichuan peppercorns, cumin, and chili paste, and comes with handpulled noodles. It was my first time trying this type of Chinese-Uyghur crossover dish, and it definitely surpassed my expectations. The portion was incredibly generous as well, as the dish was more than enough for the two of us plus leftovers.

Went to Happy Harbor around 11:30am on a Sunday and it was definitely busy, but the wait honestly…read morewasn't bad at all. We waited just a few minutes before we got seated. We were placed in the back room, which felt a little more calm compared to the main dining area. Service was good. Our waiter was fast, friendly, and really on top of things, which made a big difference since it was packed. Ordering is simple, they give you a paper menu where you mark what you want and hand it back. We ordered tea for two and picked a bunch of dim sum: jumbo shrimp har gow, shrimp fried wontons, steamed rice noodle roll with shrimp, baked abalone sauce BBQ pork bun, poached Chinese broccoli, and custard egg tarts. Everything came out fresh and hit the spot. The har gow were plump and juicy, the rice noodle rolls were soft and silky, and the BBQ pork buns had that perfect slightly sweet, fluffy texture. The egg tarts were a great finish--warm and flaky. We did end up only getting 5 out of the 6 items we ordered, but honestly we were already pretty full at that point so I didn't feel like making it a big deal. Also... we were so hungry we totally forgot to take pictures of the rest of the food Overall, a good dim sum spot, however I felt like the prices were a bit higher than the other dim some places I usually go to. Busy but efficient, good food, and friendly service. I'd would come back again!

However, having elderly guests in their 70s and approaching 80 standing for nearly an hour is completely unacceptable. What is even more unacceptable is that people who arrived after us were allowed to walk in and were seated almost immediately, while we continued to wait despite having already received our number. If this is how your waiting system works, then there is clearly a serious problem with how the seating is being managed We also tried to discuss the situation with the staff member, but the staff member's attitude was extremely rude, arrogant, and dismissive. The tone used toward us was completely inappropriate. We were not asking for special treatment--we were simply asking for a fair and reasonable explanation. Especially when dealing with customers who are in their 70s and approaching 80, shouldn't there be at least some patience, basic courtesy, and respect? Expecting elderly guests to stand for nearly an hour and then speaking to them in such a harsh and dismissive manner is simply unacceptable. I strongly suggest that your restaurant have someone experienced in managing seating arrangements and handling large crowds. I understand that today is a busy day, but this is a restaurant that has been operating for many years. A busy day should not be an excuse for poor organization or disrespectful treatment of customers. The way this situation was handled was unacceptable. I hope management will seriously review both your seating procedures and the way your staff communicate with customers, especially elderly guests who have already been waiting for an extended period of time.

There was a bit of a mixup initially with the business owners double-booking at another location on the same night, so they sent us here to their Rowland Heights location instead. The dining banquet area is vast and was able to comfortably fit around 150-200 guests. There was a small area for an open bar, photobooth, and backdrop where we were able to take photos with the newlyweds. Food wise, the restaurant had forgotten my special order (as nearly every Chinese banquet hall does), but they were able to take my order once seated. My plant-based meal was pretty good but nothing that sets it apart from other Chinese restaurants. I appreciate the ability to order a (hopefully) vegan meal while attending my friend's wedding. Parking is a bit confusing. There are some spaces claiming to be 2-hour parking while others are unmarked. If you're dining in for a special event, I'd err on the side of caution and find a longer-term parking spot.

Wow! It is rare to find a hong kong cafe in Rowland Heights, but I found Tasty Garden. It is super…read moreclose to the 60 freeway, but also super hidden within a plaza with other restaurants and you kind of have to drive in to find it. It is the first restaurant in the corner of the building. I remember Tasty Garden at a SGV location that used to be so popular but slowly fading away and later on closed down. I decided to give this location a try. I ordered togo, however when I picked up my order, I saw there were many seats available. Everything was packed very well and they didn't forget anything. I had two orders of Yang Chow fried rice (which included shrimp and bbq pork), and two orders of pan fried chicken steak + pork chop combo, which came with some steamed veggies, mushroom sauce, and a side box of white rice. The fried rice had wok hey and was good. The bbq pork was a bit tough/hard though. The chicken steak was pan fried really well and well cooked. The pork chop was a bit thin, but was crispy. I love how easy to eat the steamed veggies were. Everything was fresh and clean. My order came out quick and hot!! I am pleased to say this passed my quality of Hong Kong cafe test. I love going to hong kong cafes and trying each one out. I would definitely order again!

Usually, I would come here during dinner time and the place has great service. Staff members are always friendly and ask if you would like a refill on your iced lemon tea which yes you should get! They have it with sugar or without, I tend to get it without sugar but most people love and enjoy it with sugar. My favorite items are probably their pasta dishes and also their deep-fried chicken wings! It might take a little while to get but it is worth the wait. I love how crispy and juicy the wings are. Plenty of tables for large parties or small sizes but coming here with a group is nice to share and enjoy together.

This place is bigger than Hong Kong Cafe - Garvey, but smaller than Hong Kong Cafe - Atlantic. I haven't visited their Rowland Heights location yet. I'll see where that one fits. I originally called to order, but I didn't have their menu in front of me plus I was driving. I decided to come here to order instead. Great inside space with limited outside seating. Very cute decor with the Hong Kong theme. Good vibes all around. Menu has a vast selection of food and drink items. Prices are very reasonable. Entire staff was super friendly and cordial.

Unfortunately, this place has gone downhill. The food does not taste as good as it used to, and it…read morefeels like they are taking shortcuts in the kitchen. The dishes no longer have that proper wok hei flavor, and the food tasted bad on my recent visit. What made the experience even worse was the service. The staff were rude, dismissive, and acted annoyed that customers were even there. One of the girls, the one with the ponytail, was especially rude and needs to learn basic manners. Another staff member was also unfriendly and gave attitude the entire time. I also did not appreciate being pressured about tipping. A tip should be optional and based on good service. If the service is poor, customers should not be made to feel uncomfortable or confronted over it. On top of that, they add extra charges when using a credit card, including a fee if you spend under $30. That already feels frustrating, but the bigger issue is the attitude and poor treatment from staff. Customers are the reason businesses stay open. No one is asking to be treated like royalty, but people come in to enjoy a meal and should at least be treated with basic respect. If I am going to be ignored, rushed, and given attitude, I would rather stay home and eat in front of my TV. I will not be coming back .. food quality and customer service Nate major improve. 很遗憾，这家店现在真的越来越差了。食物已经没有以前好吃，感觉厨房为了省事一直在偷工减料。菜完全没有以前那种该有的"镬气"，我这次去吃的时候，味道非常差。 更糟糕的是他们的服务态度。员工说话很不客气，对客人很冷淡，感觉好像顾客打扰了他们一样。其中一个绑马尾的女生特别没礼貌，真的需要学一下最基本的待客态度。还有另一位员工也一样，全程态度很差，让人很不舒服。 另外，我非常不喜欢他们强迫客人给小费。小费本来就应该是自愿的，而且应该建立在服务好的基础上。服务不好，客人当然有权利不给，不应该因此被员工追着要或者让人感到压力。 而且他们刷信用卡还有额外收费，消费不到 $30 还要加收手续费。收费问题已经让人不舒服了，但更大的问题还是他们对客人的态度和整体服务品质。 顾客花钱来这里吃饭，不是来看脸色的。没有人要求被当成皇帝一样伺候，但至少应该被尊重。我们这些顾客也是在支持他们做生意、帮他们付房租和账单。如果来吃饭还要被无视、被摆脸色、被不耐烦地对待，那我还不如待在家里边看电视边吃饭。 除非他们把食物质量和服务态度都改善，不然我不会再来了。
