Im not one to write reviews all too often, but knew I had to write one for Flavor Belly. I wanted something comforting, filling, but not too heavy and this was it. For a chicken and rice plate, I really wasn't expecting much, but I was def in for a pleasant surprise. I got the Seattle Style skin-on chicken combo and the crisp made this plate stand out from the rest. The skin was crispy, but not oily, and the meat itself was tender and juicy. You get two sauces with the combo, but the owner was kind enough to give me one of each to try. Habanero sriracha had to be my fave because I always need a lil spice with my food and this sauce had the kick I was looking for. Garlic aioli- classic, can never be beat, it packs a punch without being too overwhelming. Teriyaki- ol' reliable, its bright, refreshing, switches the palette up. Asian chimichurri- must try, def a flavor you won't find anywhere else. I forgot what the light green one was called, but doesn't matter because I remember it was bomb too. As for the sides, I thought the mac salad was made perfectly. Not your broken mush of noodles, but al dente. The salad was the perfect last piece to balance out the whole meal, not to mention the dressing that was also sweet and bright. Last, but not least, portion size was generous for the pricing. Overall, Flavor Belly was memorable for the details they put into reinventing the classic chicken and rice type plate. read more

I've been following Johnny on YouTube since I was growing up, so when I saw Flavor Belly on TikTok, I knew I had to make a pit stop during my weekend trip in SoCal. Let me just say: it completely exceeded the hype! "Seattle Style" Skin-On Chicken: Incredible. The meat was tender and juicy, and that skin was perfectly flavorful and crispy. Beef Belly: If you love KBBQ beef belly, you have to get this. It tasted exactly like it and it was delicious! Garlic Rice: Never had any garlic rice like this one. Amazing textures and flavors. THE SAUCES: Every sauce elevated everything to the next level. My personal favorites were the Asian Chimichurri, Garlic Aioli, and Hot Habanero. A huge thank you to Johnny for making my first experience here so memorable! His service was spectacular, and it was very cool getting to talk to him in person after all these years of watching his content. Hope we get a Flavor Belly in the Bay Area someday! read more

Our first visit to Flavor Belly since the Yelp Elite promo and we're glad the food tastes just as good still! However, we still had to wait at least 20 minutes to get our order and they got our sauces wrong when we picked up the order. Portion size is nice but the dishes were a tad pricey for what you get. Despite these issues we'd probably return in the future so hopefully it's all sorted again. My bf and I both ordered the Seattle style skin-on chicken and really liked how crispy the chicken skin came out though it was a little bit dry by itself without sauce. The portion was definitely more than enough to fill us both up and I personally really liked pairing it with the habanero sriracha for a spicy kick. To cut through the heavy flavors were the mac and salad which we both appreciated, though we didn't love the dressing used for it. read more

First time trying this place and it was BOMB. Not sure what kind of cultural food it is but it's definitely an Asian fusion. Gives me Hawaiian vibes! Each combo plate comes with rice and salad and mac salad. Honestly, I advise to always upgrade to garlic rice. It's an extra $2 but it's so worth it. The garlic rice is SOOO GOOD. Very garlicky without being bitter or spicy. Won't regret it! Tried their skin on Seattle chicken and beef belly. Both was delicious and savory. I would have preferred a different dressing for the salad. It wasn't that good and had a weird sweetness to it. Can I suggest sesame dressing? Hint hint! Mac salad was just okay. Pros: -delicious protein -delicious garlic rice -careful takeout packaging -free parking in shared plaza lot Cons: -could use a better salad dressing read more

Went to Haven City on a random Wednesday and came across Flavor Belly. We ordered the Seattle style skin on chicken with beef belly add-on. We thought it would be another rice plate place but to our surprise, the food was delicious! The chicken was crispy and O-M-G the asian chimichurri added more flavor to it. The macaroni salad was good too but I wanted less pepper (personal preference). We went again the next day for dinner because we craved for it again! Would recommend trying them! read more

Flavor Belly - "Seattle Style" Skin-On Chicken - Food Court Near Me - West Covina, California

SAUCES. For context I drove like 45 minutes out to haven city because I was expecting taste of the pacific to be at this exact spot. Turns out they are longer open and Flavor belly has replaced them. I wanted to be angry at Flavor belly but it was good. The teriyaki plate with garlic rice was filling and the chicken was tender. Wasn't too charred and had decent moisture. Wished the garlic rice had more garlic flavor since it costs extra but maybe I just couldn't feel it in the moment. I eventually did burp up garlic all day. What makes the place is the sauces you get to try. I got the garlic sauce and the green sauce and lathered my meat. What I did not like was the side of shrimp!!! $8 for 3 shrimp!!! And the video on the screen makes them look huge! And red !!! I even confirmed before purchasing, I asked, the same shrimp from the tv screen , and they responded with yes. I receive my SHRIMP and it's like 2 inches long, only 3, and they aren't red like in the video. That was a rip. Overall not a bad pick in this food hall. read more

Located inside Haven City, there's always plenty of seating inside and out. This plaza is always spacious and clean. I came around 11:25 am and they were nice to start taking orders as they weren't open yet :). Service was great and friendly. I tried their Seattle style skin on chicken and it was crispy and garlicky delicious! The chicken was sooo tender and paired perfectly with the garlic rice +$2, salad, and mac salad. The salad was refreshing and mac was nice. The total came out to be around $21 and included complimentary sides of sauces like their garlic aioli (creamy and very garlicky) and chimichurri sauce. Would definitely come back and order the same plate or try their beef belly bowl. Flavor belly is defff flavorful :D read more

Flavor Belly is another great addition to HCWC. I recently tried the "Seattle" style chicken, which is basically crispy chicken served with mac salad and a side salad. Overall, the plate was delicious; I really like their mac salad, which I think is a good indicator of a quality teriyaki plate. The standout for me was the sauces. They really add that extra oomph. I asked for their recommended sauces and was given the chimichurri and garlic aioli. The chimichurri is definitely something I would order again. Overall, I would definitely return. It does have a higher price tag for me compared to other food stalls at HCWC and similar restaurants. read more

Flavor Belly is an Asian fusion spot inside Haven City Market, located on the opposite end of GW Market. I ordered the OG Teriyaki Chicken and the Beef Belly plates. Each one comes with rice, a scoop of mac salad, lettuce with dressing, and two sauces. The teriyaki chicken was solid, but the beef belly was definitely the standout - it reminded me of brisket you'd get at a Korean BBQ spot. The garlic aioli and chili verde were my favorite sauces and paired perfectly with both proteins. I did run into a pricing issue through Uber Eats, but Johnny went above and beyond to fix it. Even though it wasn't their fault, he offered several options to make things right and provided excellent customer service. The service alone is enough to keep me coming back. read more

Flavor Belly - Crispy chicken, macaroni, cucumbers, and garlic rice - Food Court Near Me - West Covina, California

This is my second time trying out Flavor Belly and finally getting around to writing this review. Boyfie and I shared a plate again since we remembered how bomb their food was. Got the OG plate again, but this time we got our own sauces (bellyaki and verde). We also got cucumber salad as a side as well. They ran out of garlic rice during our visit which is understandable cause it was that good. Food is solid as the first time. Flavorful and moist chicken, properly cooked rice, and yummy sides. Cucumber salad was bright and crispy. The verde sauce is your typical Peruvian aji sauce, but still a hit. Can't go wrong with their bellyaki either. Thanks Flavor Belly for a great meal :) read more

I wanted to update Flavor Belly to the 5/5 it deserves! We came by to try the Seattle Style "Skin On"Chicken plate today and that thang was fire! Per last review, owner John said to try the Seattle Style. Shout outs to the chef/owner John for the recommendation. The plate delivered at every level. And it's probably, the one I'll go with again. Hopefully in the future my wife and I could say what's up on the next visit. The $20 with the upgrade of the garlic rice is totally worth it. They had just opened so we had no problems finding tables to sit down. The portion comes with two rows of the chicken. A great plate to share or save the rest for later. That crispy skin was next level! The texture and moistness of the chicken is top tier. *chef's kiss*. The chicken was so moist and cooked to perfection. The Mac salad tasted much better too. I love that you can choose multiple sauces. We got the Bellyaki, Verde and Asian Chimichurri this time and enjoyed each one. Can't wait to come back again. Enjoy the updated pics and flicks. Hope it makes others want to try it out. Thanks, Flavor Belly! ( ^_^)b read more

I've been here twice now with my husband. We decided to share the Seattle Style Skin-On Chicken plate with garlic fried rice. The sauces are given on the side and you can order as many as you want without charge. We got the Bellyaki, Verde, and the Asian Chimichurri sauces. We waited about 10 mins for our food and at the time it wasn't busy. When we got our food it was to our surprise to see two rows of sliced chicken with the *crispiest* skin. I'm craving this right now as I'm typing this out. It was perfectly seasoned. The garlic rice was so flavorful and had the perfect amount of garlic. The sauces complimented the plate so well, you can't go wrong with any of them. The iceberg lettuce and mac salad were delicious as well. This is by far our favorite plate. I've tried their shrimp plate as well, that's also a very good option. You get a lot of food for what you pay for. It's a great option to share with someone or to save half for later. Flavor Belly is located in the West Covina Haven City Market. Their area was clean and the employees were informative and helpful. We are definitely coming back here. read more

I had a memorable experience at Flavor Belly (West Covina). I ordered the "Seattle Style" Skin-On Chicken ($18.99) with Garlic Rice (additional $2) and free sauces (i.e. Garlic Aioli, Asian Chimichurri). An audible gasp of wonder peeped out when I combined that moist, clean chicken with its bold sauce. It became infinitely better, and I greedily devoured this distinct, memorable feast! (Important: Cash is not accepted. Must use Card or Cashless Payment.) I arrived at Flavor Belly (West Covina) on Tuesday (around 6:55PM). Parking was available this late weekday. The lot is big; however, there's always competition since it uses the extremely popular Haven City Market's lot. Staff is professional, welcoming, and helpful. Staff (receipt says Jade) answered all my questions and worked hard. Jade would work non-stop while always maintaining a cheerful smile. My order took 13 minutes and 27 seconds. Good pace! As mentioned, I enjoyed the "Seattle Style" Skin-On Chicken ($18.99) with Garlic Rice (additional $2). The chicken is moist & clean. Its accompanying macaroni salad is bouncy and bright. Its salad is crisp and fresh. The garlic rice came hot, fluffy, and savory with a prominent, addictive garlic flavor. Individually, each aspect of the meal is very good; however, the magic kicks in when the sauces get involved. I absolutely adored the Garlic Aioli sauce; this sauce is creamy & lightly sweet with a fresh garlic taste. The Asian Chimichurri sauce is zesty & bright with a spicy kick. After dipping the chicken, there's a delightful flavor explosion. "SO GOOD!" Regarding ambiance, it's minimal at Flavor Belly (West Covina). This business is a food stall in the the popular Haven City Market. Fortunately, the stall is attractive with its bright, vibrant colors. Since the location is located within the popular Haven City Market, there's plenty of indoor and outdoor tables. There's also a nearby restroom. Haven City Market also has security guards for safety. There's flat screen tv's that play basketball and football games. There's also customer internet with password; information is posted on the columns. The location is also well-ventilated, very clean, and bustling with many cheerful customers. Overall, Flavor Belly (West Covina) exceeded all expectations. It's a memorable, flavorful experience. I left full and happy. If you love chicken, this is an easy recommendation. 5 out of 5. "GO!!" read more

Came by flavor belly on a Friday night and it was busy. I ordered the chicken and the shrimp. The chicken was flavorful and juicy. The shrimp were plump and perfectly crispy. I ordered the garlic rice for both which was nicely flavored. The salad was a bit plain and simple but the macaroni salad was delicious. Its a little pricey but the food has great flavor. They have all these side sauces which are great especially the chimichurri. read more

I heard Haven City Market in West Covina got a few new tenants. Flavor Belly is one of them. I had to come here to check them out. So very glad I did. The hype is REAL! Everything was amazingly delicious! Food was so good, I had to return here the next day to try the other half of their menu LOL. They currently have 4 different plates (see below). Yes, I have tried them all except for the Beef Belly because I don't eat beef anymore. Huge portions of chicken in both chicken plates. Love the chicken tenderness on the inside and lightly crispiness on the outside... MORE "SEATTLE STYLE" PLEASE... SO GOOD!! All plates come with white rice, macaroni salad, and iceberg lettuce in light dressing. For $2 more, you can upgrade to garlic rice. Get the garlic rice! Trust me on this one. They offer sides of specific items. Their sauces are so good... my favorites are Asian Chimichurri and Garlic Aioli! Day 1 - OG Teriyaki Chicken Plate (My 2nd choice!) - "Seattle Style" Skin-On Chicken Plate (Hands down my 1st choice!) - Side Pickled Cucumber Day 2 - Beef Belly Plate - Crispy Shrimp Plate (My 3rd choice, I prefer my shrimp to be grilled) I got to meet the owner, Johnny. He's a really nice guy. He shared how each plate is made. Good info. Overall staff was very welcoming and friendly. Service was amazing. I highly recommend this place 100%. I'll be back for more chicken deliciousness. Thank you Flavor Belly for sharing the WOW WOW and WOW in your plates!! Tip: They normally don't give out paper receipts. If you need one, you'll have to ask for it. Thanks. read more

The skin on chicken was so good. Skin was still crispy while cooked all the way through. I got the graphic fried rice instead of white rice and it was good! It looked so good that I forgot to take a pic prior to starting to eat. They recommended the aoli and chimmichuri sauce. Both were spot on. The person who took my order was very personable. Once he found out my name, he called me by name until I got my order. I'm very big on that. With the flavor belly being in the haven city food court, had plenty of space. read more

Return visit. Yet another delightful and delectable experience. Rarely do I find something that lives up to its hype, and Flavor Belly is one (located inside Haven City Market food hall in West Covina). With their 'Seattle-style' skin-on chicken, they manage to turn boring teriyaki chicken into a memorable gastronomical delight, with a crunchy, crispy top and a tender juicy belly. (You won't find Yoshinoya's loose, oily teriyaki chicken skin here.) I thought it was great as-is without any sauce, but to each their own. Their grilled beef belly (thick sukiyaki sliced beef) is good, but the chicken is the star, 5 stars in fact. read more

Came here to grab lunch at one of the stalls inside Haven City Market. They specialize in rice plates that include a protein (chicken or beef) with sides like macaroni salad and lettuce. I opted to get all rice, and upgraded to garlic rice (which was definitely a good call!). The beef belly was good and tasted freshly made, which meant it took a little longer to get the food, but that was not a big deal. What really set the food apart was the sauces! I really liked their garlic aioli, and adding it to the beef took it to another level. I want to come back and try one of their chicken plates. read more

Flavor Belly - Beef Belly Plate with Garlic Rice - Food Court Near Me - West Covina, California

Located in the Haven City Marketplace, Flavor Belly is a great addition to the great food options available here. Fresh, hot comfort food with flavor packed in every bite. If there's an option for garlic rice, best believe I'm choosing it. I ordered the OG Teriyaki Chicken plate. Service with mac, salad, and yup garlic rice. The chicken was juicy with all the char and teriyaki flavor I had expected. The garlic rice really hit the spot. Nothing better than that combination. I also ordered a side of the pickled cucumbers which I loved. I could have done without the mac but that's just me being picky. Everything else was on point. My husband ordered the shrimp plate. The shrimp were large, battered, and fried. The batter had tons of flavor and just the right crisp. The menu is small and simple. No need to for a large menu when you are packing bomb dishes. Will be back for more! read more

Ordered through DoorDash and the was food still fresh and hot I loved the delicious quality of the freshly grilled chicken teriyaki and my personal favorite the beef belly! The Flavor Belly beef belly is like a slightly meatier Yoshinoya gyudon beef bowl but way better there is also no onions in theirs just meat. The belly teriyaki sauce was delicious and inoffensive just the right amount of sweet umami flavor. The macaroni salad has good flavor and is good for anyone that doesn't like a bunch of crunchy celery and onion random veggies you typically find in Hawaiian mac salads. I think it's like macaroni with a cheesy peppery mayonnaise base? Not sure if the 6oz scoop was worth 6.50 though considering how simple it is just comparing to orders of mac salads from other similar joints. The house salad is an easy healthy touch but is also super simple no other extra veggies just iceberg lettuce and a dressing. Overall, I love this place. Im hoping there will be some belly+chicken belly+shrimp combo platter combinations etc. in the future. If you dont want to deal with iceberg salads as the only option Id love to see egg rolls/lumpia as a side too. Keep on going im rooting for your restaurant's success. read more

Flavor Belly is located in Haven City Market, which recently opened. Lots of places in here, so needed to see what Flavor Belly is about! Got the "Seattle-Style" Skin-On Chicken with garlic rice along with a side of beef belly. The chicken was fantastic! Really flavorful and not dry at all. The chicken skin was the perfect amount of crispiness. Garlic rice was fantastic. Macaroni salad was a nice complement, as were the fresh vegetables. Also liked the side of beef belly as well. Johnny was super friendly and welcoming. You can tell he's all about customer service! Personally looked for me to hand me my food, as I had ventured away from the area. Really enjoyed Flavor Belly.

The portions are generous-- wow! I ordered the skin-on chicken plate with garlic fried rice. The amount of chicken I was given was enough to last me at least two meals. The chicken was tender-- and the skin was crispy! The garlic fried rice, which was recommended, was packed with umami. The asian chimichurri and verde sauce were the highlight-- they were indeed bold and flavorful. The asian chimichurri was sweet and savory, and the verde sauce had quite a bit of heat to it. Both paired well with the chicken. The rest of the plate came with macaroni salad and fresh greens. The owner is kind, attentive, and friendly-- it's clear that he really cares about his service and is passionate about his food. Can't wait to see this business thrive! read more

I have tried this place twice now and feel that I can give it a solid review. The first time I went it was with my family on a Saturday and it was a little chaotic. We got the beef belly plate and the OG chicken teriyaki plate. We got them both with the garlic rice. Let me tell you! THE GARLIC RICE! Amazing!!! I love garlic and this wasn't overpowering and it was the perfect amount of garlic flavor. It was perfect with the beef belly and the chicken. My family preferred the beef belly. Even when we went back a second time we got two of the beef belly plates. The first time I went there was only one worker and he was a little timid taking my order. However, the second time I went the kitchen was full of about 5 people. The person who took my order was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely worth a try if you are at the food hall! read more

I checked Haven City Market on a Saturday and I came across this vendor, and their plates were very intriguing. I decided to get their OG teriyaki plate along with a side of cucumbers to share with my girlfriend. To sum up my thoughts about the plate, it was the bomb. The teriyaki sauce was sweet and savory, chicken was moist, and the garlic rice ($2 extra) was the perfect amount of garlic and not dry! Macaroni salad was not salty at all, and the salad and cucumbers were fresh! I got the garlic aioli sauce to accompany the plate and it was solid as well. For a $16.99 plate, I think it was very worth it and while I shared with my girlfriend, I honestly could have finished it myself because it was very good. I would definitely check them out again for their other plates. read more

Great quality food! I ordered the Crispy Shrimp with Garlic Rice and an extra side of Teriyaki Chicken. The crispy shrimp was beautifully fried and had a crispy texture. It was also flavorful and paired well with their Garlic Aioli sauce. It came with a salad and macaroni salad which were good. The teriyaki chicken was nicely charred, giving it a smoky flavor, while the teriyaki sauce was both sweet and savory. The garlic rice was delicious, with a great balance of garlicky and buttery flavors. Overall, the food here is fresh, great quality, and tasty.

Flavor Belly - Crispy Shrimp with Garlic Rice, side of Teriyaki Chicken - Food Court Near Me - West Covina, California

I'm pretty sure the Asian chimichurri sauce here is made from angels. I didn't see them pressing angels into a juicer or anything, but you can't see the entire kitchen, so I'm fairly confident that's the secret ingredient. Flavor Belly is a solid pick when you're at Haven City Market. The teriyaki chicken is fresh, flavorful, and has that light char that feels like Japan. Full disclosure: I've never been to Japan. For all I know, if I brought Flavor Belly to Japan, I'd probably say it totally reminded me of America. Whatever--it's delicious. I'm also a big fan of the sliced cucumber side--a simple, lightly dressed salad that's crisp, tangy, and the perfect counterpoint to your meal. The crew is always super friendly and chatty, sometimes even handing out little samples like benevolent food fairies. Vibe check: passed. Grab a seat nearby, watch the Dodgers, or pop next door to Burning Bridge Brewing for a beer and trivia night on Wednesdays. Flavor Belly is yet another excellent reason to spend your hard-earned money at Haven City Market--and possibly confirm the existence of angel-based condiments. read more

Flavor Belly lived up to its name! The stall is located the in Haven City Marketplace which can get busy and loud at times, but plenty of seating options available throughout the food hall. This spot is takeout only. The menu is small, but even I had a difficult time choosing because they all looked so good! I ended up choosing the Seattle Skin On Chicken. Service was super helpful and friendly in helping me decide which 2 sauces to pick. Seattle Skin On Chicken 9/10 - The plates come with rice, a small side salad, and mac salad. The chicken was so juicy and the skin was nice and crispy. Portions are good as well. I'm glad I listened to the recommendation of getting the chimichurri sauce on the side because it paired great with the chicken. I thought the chicken was fried, but it was actually grilled, providing a nice char and smoky flavor as well. Definitely recommend checking this place out! I'll definitely be back to try their other items as well. read more

Flavor Belly - "Seattle Style" Skin on Chicken Plate - Food Court Near Me - West Covina, California

Flavor Belly is located in the Haven City Market West Covina. They are one of the heavier more filling options if you're hungry. My boyfriend ordered the OG Teriyaki Chicken ($16.99) Plate. Each plate comes with rice, macaroni salad, ice burg salad, and sauce. He picked the verde and the Asian chimichurri sauces. He was ordering this before I ordered from two other vendors and somehow I got my orders before this food was ready. It was a crazy long wait. I personally don't feel like it's worth the wait so if they look busy you should skip it. The portion was packed but it was so heavy. The chicken was probably the main attraction. They press the protein down onto the grill so the edge is very crispy. The sauces were also good. My boyfriend ate and still had a decent amount of leftovers for a subsequent meal. Great option for those with a large appetite but not for me. read more

Delicious food here at this new spot that opened in Haven City Market, West Covina. They are still in soft opening, though it seems they are planning a full launch soon. Service was top-notch, and they informed me of all the best sauce combos with each dish. Here are my actual thoughts on the food: OG Teriyaki Chicken - I love that it's not overly seasoned, yet just right. The flavors worked well, and we had this with the garlic rice. A winner for sure. (4.5/5) Seattle Style Skin-On Chicken - I'd never heard of Seattle-style before, but I'll admit this was my new favorite. It mixes well with any of the sauces, and because it comes less seasoned, it's a perfect pairing with the extra sauces you can get. Loved this one. (5/5) Crispy Shrimp - Perfectly crispy and sauced-up shrimp. The only downside of this dish is that it only comes with five shrimp on a bed of rice, but I would say it's delicious. (5/5) Pork Belly - This is the only dish I felt could use a little work. It's not as appealing as the others and was a bit more basic. It needs a little more something. The flavors were good, though, just a tad too simple for me. (3.5/5) Overall, I hope Flavor Belly has a great opening launch because they definitely have something special with this Seattle-style chicken. I would totally come back just to get that chicken next time! read more

New stall that took over what used to be Taste of the Pacific. They had really big shoes to fill, as TOTP was reallllly good and price to portion ratio was justified. Flavor belly has lots of potential, but was absolutely appalling to see the amount of food served to me. What was advertised on their videos was significantly. They were about 5~7 piece of chicken on a bed of rice, and then fluffed with some cabbage. Tbh, i probably could just bought the ingredients with the money i spent here and had leftovers. Chicken was okay, and the sauces kinda made it passing. Did not get to try certain sauce as they ran out, sooo that's that. Find me at other stalls :/ read more

I ordered the skin on chicken and upgraded the rice to garlic rice for $2 more. They were out of the verde sauce so we got the teriyaki, garlic aioli, and Asian chimichurri. Service was very helpful and friendly. The food was made to order so a little bit of a wait. The best part: the side of shrimp; good panko breading, flavorful, and juicy. Garlic aioli was requested on the side but good for dipping the shrimp into. I liked the pickled cucumbers too. The teriyaki sauce was pretty good, not too sweet or too salty. The chicken was cooked pretty well. It wasn't super juicy (thin cut) but it wasn't overcooked so that's important. It did lack flavor.. I guess that could be what allows the sauce to shine. I think the portion of chicken was more on par with the price compared to other reviews I saw w/ pics. The rice was just okay. It needed soy sauce or something to balance the sweet from the garlic. The Asian chimichurri was more spicy than full of flavor. I didn't really like the mac salad. It was too sweet for my liking. It would've been a 3 star meal, overall. But the shrimp was worth adding another start to. Kinda pricey, though for 3 pieces at $8, granted they were larger pieces of shrimp. Still at that price there could've been at least one more. read more

New food stall taken over for the now defunct Taste of the Paradise restaurant. So came to haven city to grab a quick dinner. Surprised that a new restaurant has open, simple menu, not sure if it's a soft opening or if that's it. Teriyaki chicken made two ways, original or crispy, choices of sauces, and two choices of white or garlic rice. $14 for a medium size Teriyaki chicken bowl. Flavor was good, but didn't care for everything plated in one container, the sweet dressing from the salad soaked into my garlic rice, and basically killed any garlic flavor, would of been better in a container with separate partitioned sections. Quality of the grilled chicken was good, but overall, the amount is food you get was lacking a little. Staff was nice and helpful, restaurant was clean. Will keep an eye out for this place for an expansion of the menu. Will give them another try in the near future. 4 stars from me. read more

I ordered the original grilled chicken and it was pretty good. Combine it with garlic rice and it adds more flavor to the dish. The Mac salad and cucumbers were refreshing. The cashier lady was super nice and it was really easy to order. My only complaint here is that the menu doesn't show a base price, so you don't know how much it is until it's rung up. The plate I ordered was $17.55. It's not bad, but the price could be a bit cheaper. read more
