    Great news! They just added "Xiao Long bao" on their menu, it's as good as "Din Tai Fung". You have to try it and make sure ask for other new items.

    This spot is a hidden gem! The hand-made food here hits different--super fresh and full of flavor. The beef rolls are my favorite, crispy and satisfying. Service is fast, atmosphere is great, 10/10 would recommend!

    Very delicious noodles! As well as dumplings with fish meat. My family like foods here very much .We definitely will come here once again!

    Flavor Noodle House (Diamond Bar) is spectacular! The portions are huge, the meals are fresh, and its prices are affordable & wonderful for its food's quality. I ordered the Braised Beef Noodle Soup ($12.99) and Beef Roll ($13.99). It's phenomenal. The Braised Beef Noodle Soup had a light, clean broth. Its beef is thick yet very tender. And to my utter delight, the noodles are very fresh, firm and springy. These noodles are perhaps some of the best fresh, thick noodles that I'd ever tasted. Next, the Beef Roll is humongous! It easily feeds two people, and it's a bargain for its price-point. The Beef Roll is not too oily; rather, the flavor of fresh beef and herbs pop as you bite into it. The wrapping did arrive a little soft, but it holds the fresh filling very well. I arrived at Flavor Noodle House (Diamond Bar) on Sunday (around 11AM). Staff is very friendly and welcoming. I pointed at my menu to order, and staff immediately understood and shared a bright smile. All the food arrived around 14 minutes. I also appreciated the ambiance. Its instrumental, soft chime music is very soothing. The location is very clean. And its ventilation felt airy. The location is small, but it contains many shiny tables. Overall, Flavor Noodle House (Diamond Bar) offers special eats. It's so rare to see such delicious, fresh food at such affordable prices. I left extremely happy and full. Be excited! The hype is real. 5 out of 5

    Beef and beef tendon noodle soup
    Lo S.

    The beef noodle soup was more on the lighter side. The broth was murky, but tastes like clear broth. Noodles were good. They were generous with the tendon, which I enjoyed. The 3 slices platter salad plate appetizer was also playful because it had Szechuan peppers to make it mildly numbing. Parking is easy, shared with small studios. Restaurant is run by nice mom and pop couple. They didn't speak English, and pointing to the bilingual Chinese/english menu was good enough.

    very nice authentic restaurant and the owner is really nice! i got the zhajiangmian and it tastes like the ones that i always get in china. the owner makes their own sauce, and they specialize in hand cut noodles that are popular in northern china. you get big portions and good pricing!

    Flavor Noodle House is literally a hidden gem in a randomly strip mall near the El Pollo Loco across from Bageloo. This hole in the wall place is completely family owned and they specialize in handmade noodle/dumpling dishes. It definitely helps if you speak Mandarin as I'm not sure if the lady speaks english? The menu itself is pretty standard with noodles, dumplings, some cold dishes and some rice dishes. The beef noodles were super tasty with a rich broth without being overly oily. The beef was tender and tasty. The Beef Rolls are absolutely BOMB here if you love cilantro since it's packed full of it. It has the perfect amount of sauce to meat to veggie ratio with every single bite. Yes the service can be slow here since it seems like literally only the husband in the kitchen and the wife in front are the staff here. So be patient especially during peak rush hour times, the food is worth the wait not to mention how friendly they are in making sure everything is OK. We'll absolutely be back again to support this small family business!

    I also hesitated to write this review as I would like to support local businesses and hoping they last. I understand times are challenging but the quality control remains crucial as long as you're in the restaurant industry. I gave them the benefit of the doubt but after seeing this review (attached) it's almost shocking how we experienced the same exact thing with the same dish: fried rice. Literally the same situation, having the rice the next day and after being heated, the smell was bad and strange. My mom and I were the ones that had bites and since then we have been puking and having diarrhea (symptoms of food poisoning) for the entire afternoon/night in hopes it didn't carry over til the next day. I've never experienced food poisoning as bad as this one with continuous nausea , puking and visits to the toilet. I am so glad my little ones (3 & 4 yo) didn't end up having it because when my parents dined in they already felts weird about this simple fried rice being overly spiced with peppers. I'm all sharing in hopes that the restaurant would be more cautious in their ingredient selection to avoid causing harm or inconveniences to the customers... please and thank you ! Writing this as I'm still experiencing nausea

    Braised beef soup
    Vanessa M.

    Food was delicious. I would definitely come here instead of big chains. I loved the dumplings there big and juicy. My mom and I got beef noddle soup and it was soo good. The lady was so sweet and helpful. My mom had a cast and the lady used some carboard to put under her foot so she wouldn't touch the floor with her cast, helped her sit down and set aside her crutches. There was a language barrier but that doesn't take away from our experience here. We will definitely be back. Thank you

    Dessert menu

    I have to say, the lamb noodle soup is incredibly flavorful, with zero gamey taste at all. I finished a whole bowl and realized I was still hungry. The buns here are also super juicy--had my whole mouth oily and delicious. The owner is really nice too. And the atmosphere is super authentically Chinese. All the condiments and utensils are fully stocked on every table. The environment is clean and tidy, so you don't have to worry about hygiene or safety at all. Highly, highly recommend! Definitely worth the trip.

    Tendon Beef Noodle Soup
    Juliet C.

    I decided to try this place out based on all the good reviews. Beef rolls (2/5): The beef roll that everyone is raving about is honestly not that good. The breading is super dry and the filling was 90% cilantro. Tendon beef noodle soup (4/5): The soup was super light, not soy saucy like other restaurants, which I really enjoyed. The noodle was okay. I didn't really like the type of noodle they used. I ordered the tendon noodle soup and my boyfriend ordered the tendon and beef noodle soup but mine still had beef chunks. I also ordered no cilantro and the waiter said "sorry" because there was still cilantro in it. Service is ok, food waiting time is long.

    Half of the cilantro pulled out from one piece of the beef roll.
    Jon C.

    4.7 Yelp review albeit with not a whole lot of reviews but willing to give it a shot. Boy, was I wrong. We stopped by on an early Sunday evening and was a little apprehensive given that the place was empty. However, let's give it a shot. The beef and beef with tendon noodle broth itself is pretty good. But there's not very much beef. The tendons were too mushy and not very fresh. The simmered beef, which I ordered to go was ok, tender but flavorless. The beef roll was pretty bad. Pretty much more than half of it is filled with cilantro and you can barely taste the beef. So was the green onion pancake which had no flavor and tasted weird. Too much breading and not enough onions. But the worst part was the service. It started out okay since we were the only ones there but as the evening wore on and as soon as they got a couple other parties, they suddenly became rude and gave a huge attitude when we were trying to split the bill/payment for a to go order. Definitely not coming back and now sorry that I actually gave them more business by ordering to go.

Fortunately, they serve both. We both love siomai, duck, and crispy salted squid so we ordered the trio. The siomai was fresh. Tasted as if it was just off a lunch cart. It's delicious and the serving size is quite generous. The price is unbeatable too. We really enjoyed its balanced taste. Sometimes, siomai can be a bit bland but this was packed with flavor. The Peking Duck was great too. Reminded us of our time in Hong Kong. Less oily but still delicious. The buns were great too. We both enjoyed every bite. The sauce was excellent too. It had sweetness to it from the pineapple sauce. The salted crispy squid is balanced. Salty yet a bit sweet. It's definitely more of the indulgent side of things. Best paired with rice.

I thought the food was adequate but not as good as dishes from other Chinese restaurants around the area. We got the chicken chow mein, fish fillet with sweet corn, and honey walnut shrimp. Steamed rice is available but for an additional charge. The staff made themselves easily visible and offered to take our order almost immediately. The chicken chow mein arrived lastly. We noticed this because we were finishing our two other dishes. The ambience was nice, but I noticed that our plastic tablecloth was a little tattered. The fish fillet with sweet corn came breaded. With sweet and savory flavor from the corn, it was good. It might've been better if the fish were not breaded. The flavor from the honey walnut shrimp was adequate, but I've tasted better elsewhere. My hunch infers that the shrimp quality could've been higher. The chicken chow mein's flavor was decent, but I've tasted better slurry from other Chinese restaurants. Our meal came with complimentary jasmine tea, which was quite strong and flavorful.

This is where Duck Palace really earns its name. The skin hits that ideal balance--lightly crisp with a slight lacquered sheen--while the meat underneath stays juicy and flavorful without being overly fatty. It's not trying to be trendy or reinvent anything; it's just done right. The seasoning leans traditional Cantonese--savory, slightly sweet, and aromatic without being heavy-handed. I did not try the supporting dishes, but they had a good variety outside the roast duck. This is where you can tell whether a place is a one-hit wonder or a true kitchen. They had BBQ combo plates, stir-fried dishes, and various sides. Service here is efficient, is part of the charm. You're coming for good food, done well. Best to call in to reserve a duck ahead of time because they will sell out by mid-afternoon. The space itself is clean and straightforward--more casual than upscale--but comfortable enough for both quick meals and relaxed family meals. What I appreciate most about Duck Palace is the consistency. The price is reasonable for what you are paying for and the duck combo meal is enough to feed 2-3 people. Pro tips: - Go earlier in the day if you want the freshest roast selections. - Takeout holds up surprisingly well (the duck skin still has some integrity if you don't let it sit too long). - Great option when you want authentic flavors without driving deeper into the valley. - Discount for paying in cash Bottom line: If you're in Diamond Bar and craving authentic Cantonese roast meats, Duck Palace is a reliable go-to. It may not be flashy, but it delivers where it counts--and sometimes, that's exactly what you want.

Most duck places in SGV still have the gamey taste of duck. My friend got the salted chicken, and that was delicious too. Their sets come with cold side dishes and rice.

Keep that in mind if you have to go somewhere else after.

The restaurant has a very grounded, down-to-earth vibe with piping hot food that makes you feel right at home. I was pleasantly surprised to learn from the owners that they previously provided catering services during the domestic Olympic and Paralympic Games in China, and they now also handle conference meals and boxed lunches here in LA. This solid culinary background really shines through in their reliable approach. Whether you are grabbing a quick solo meal or sharing a few dishes with friends, this is a highly recommended spot for genuine flavors. Taste: I was initially curious about the "Colorful Rice Bowl" and whether it would actually live up to the name, but it definitely did! It's packed with a half braised egg, tofu, minced meat, tomato and egg stir-fry, broccoli, and cold seaweed salad. It's a perfect balance of meat and veggies, making it a very filling and nutritious choice. The Three-Cup Chicken was rich with sauce and deeply flavorful, perfect for mixing with rice. The Shanghai Spare Ribs had a slightly crispy exterior with a generous coating of sweet and sour sauce. The Satay Beef was exceptionally tender with a prominent, savory flavor. To balance out the hot dishes, the Mapo Tofu was silky and well-seasoned, while the Cold Beef Salad was refreshing and appetizing. Ambiance: The restaurant is not a massive space, but it feels cozy and welcoming. The dishes are served piping hot, which adds to the comforting, home-style dining experience. It's a great spot whether you're grabbing a quick solo meal or sitting down to order a few dishes with friends. Price: The value is fantastic. The Colorful Rice Bowl is only $9.90, and considering the generous portion size and variety of ingredients, it's a steal. The other homestyle dishes are also very reasonably priced for the quality and portion sizes you get. Service: The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Chatting with them about their professional catering background really made the experience special. It's clear they have a lot of culinary experience, which reflects in their attentive and reliable service. Recommended: I highly recommend the Colorful Rice Bowl ($9.90) for anyone dining alone or looking for a quick, well-rounded meal. If you're sharing, definitely try the Three-Cup Chicken, Shanghai Spare Ribs, and Satay Beef. The Mapo Tofu and Cold Beef Salad are also great additions to round out the table. I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm craving some warm, authentic homestyle Chinese food!

    Absolutely TERRIBLE experience. Do not waste your time or money here…read more The moment we walked into Fu's Restaurant, it felt like stepping into a sauna. It was 79 degrees inside, muggy, humid, and completely uncomfortable. We almost turned around and left immediately. The place was practically empty, which honestly should have been our first red flag. We decided to give them a chance anyway. Big mistake. My colleague and I were offered water or hot tea. We both ordered hot tea. The menu clearly says in English that hot tea is $2.99. Nowhere does it clearly explain in English that you will be charged differently depending on how many people drink it. When the bill came, we were charged $5 each. Apparently, there is some clarification written in Chinese, but how are customers who do not read Chinese supposed to know that? That is completely misleading. The tea portions were not larger, not special, nothing different. Just basic tea. The pricing felt deceptive. We also ordered popcorn chicken and chili wonton soup. Both came out in tiny portions that looked like appetizers, yet the menu does not clearly label them as such. For what we received, paying over $30 total felt ridiculous. The food itself was mediocre at best. Nothing memorable and definitely not worth the price. Because of the uncomfortable temperature, confusing pricing, small portions, and average food, we chose not to leave a tip. As we were walking out, the waiter chased us outside and pressured us about the zero tip. That is completely inappropriate. Tipping is not mandatory. It is earned. Confronting customers outside over a tip is unprofessional and embarrassing. Between the heat, the questionable menu pricing, the small portions, and being confronted outside, this was one of the worst dining experiences I have had in a long time. We will never be back. There are plenty of better places within the same plaza than to dine here. I don't expect this place to last long anyway.
