Their jjajangmyeon is so good, and the jjamppong is delicious as well! The sweet and sour pork was tasty, although it wasn't as chewy and crispy as some other places I've tried. The portions are huge--one bowl alone is more than enough to fill you up. Servers were nice and great. But dining area is a bit smaller than it looks from the outside. Great value for the price, and I'll definitely be back! read more

A small strip lot parking lot hides a few gems in Artesia. This Chinese/Korean restaurant is everything you require. Good Chinese dishes often found in Korean owned Chinese restaurants. In particular, I came in for the Jajangmyeon. Service was quick. Like not even 3 minutes and my food was on my table. This is because Jajangmyeon doesn't require much cooking. The noodles and the chunjang should be ready to go. Flavor was great. Portion was great. Kim Chi and Danmuji were ok. This is a no frills, down to business restaurant. I could see this becoming part of a roster if you were local. I'm sure they do a lot of take out. Overall a good option for some Chinese food. I don't know if its the best, but its worth a try! read more

Arrived here on a weekday for dinner. I've passed by this eatery during lunch and saw it was always busy so I decided to check them out. Parking is available in the shared strip center lot but it fills up during peak hours so I was able to find a street parking spot. The cusine is Korean & Chinese fusion and I ordered the Jjanppong seafood noodles and the spicy shredded pork. Both entrees were on the mild side but we're generous portions and flavorful and included a bowl of steamed rice. The restaurant is on the smaller side and a bit dated but the service and food were solid. I'm looking forward to returning for lunch or dinner and trying some of their other entree's. read more

The restaurant is very dirty with filth everywhere. The food tasted okay, but with the doors opened, I was spending half the time trying to swat the flies away from our table. Knowing what I know, I don't think I can even order to go from here, but the food tasted okay. read more

A Jjajangmyeon Jjamppong restaurant that sells Chinese food, not Korean Jjajangmyeon restaurant. The taste is different from Jjajangmyeon Jjamppong made by Koreans. Jjajangmyeon Jjamppong sweet and sour pork is a Korean-style Chinese food. The taste is completely different. Jjamppong had a seasoning taste that didn't taste hot or spicy, and the sweet and sour pork was also too sweet and had a strong greasy taste. I think I'll get 5 stars if I eat another Chinese menu here. The two stars I gave are only for Jjamppong and sweet and sour pork. read more

Old school Korean-style Chinese food. No frills, no fancy decor - just good Chinese food at decent prices. It was pretty full on a Thursday evening, but there were still a table or two open. I went and ordered the seafood jjangppong (spicy noodle soup) and the tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork). The broth in the noodle soup was nice and spicy, definitely hit the spot. The pork in the tangsuyuk is sliced thinner than other places, but it made for nice bite sized morsels. The sweet and sour sauce was thick and heavy, definitely old school style. The dishes must've been freshly washed, as they had a strong bleach odor to them. That did take away from the aroma of the food, so I wish the bleach smell wasn't so strong. Overall, I'd definitely come back here if I were craving OG Korean-style Chinese food. I'll have to try the jjajjangmyun (black bean noodles) next time. read more

I think this place does mostly take out for regulars because the food is pretty good but it's not a big or fancy place. Parking is also an issue because there's a AYCE Korean bbq in the same strip mall so you might have to park on the street or around the corner. Still, came for the black bean noodles which were good. Also tried the 3 gems dish which was ok but a bit pricey. Service was basic as the ladies were busy getting takeout orders ready. read more

The atmosphere leaves much to be desired but the place is clean and they serve classic Korean-Chinese food. The fried shrimp with spicy garlic sauce is perfection but ask for sauce on the side because it gets soggy quick. read more

Very hole in the wall gem. Food is delicious, service is fast and attentive. Jajangmyeon craving brought us here and it was a bullseye.

Might be my new favorite jjajangmyeon spot. The sauce was perfectly flavorful. I wish the noodles were hotter because it was lukewarm, I'm guessing they premade some for the lunch rush. The tangsuyook was crunchy and delicious. I prefer the sauce on the side, but no complaints as it was so yummy. Will definitely bring everyone I know. read more

For some reason, this place reminds me of my childhood. I love their Chinese cold noodles. The servers were extremely nice and attentive. If you want delicious Korean-Chinese food, this is place to go. Will be going back! read more

OG Chinese place for decades that is among few that still stands today. Offers great values and taste, especially when craving korean Chinese cuisine like Jjajangmyun and variety of entrees. Loved both Jjajang and Jjampong as well as lunch special portions of kkampong shrimp and Mongolian beef. Cant wait to go back for more read more

OK food, friendly staff in a no frills setting, very NYC Chinatown vibe. Not sure I need to go back. Not sure what Eater Ordered, but was not thrilled with the black bean noodles. We must have ordered the wrong items if Eater claims it's an essential OC must try for Korean food. read more

Great please for spicy Korean style soup! Delicious seafood broth and amazing Szechuan chicken! They also provide free hot tea, kimchi, and pickled radishes (I think). The service was excellent as well. Ambience leaves more to be desired but I wasn't expecting much just by looking at the pictures. The food definitely makes up for it though! read more

Great food, great service and classic ambiance. Tastes like the OG Korean Chinese restaurants from Koreatown

Black bean noodle and spicy noodle are staple. Very yummy! But the spicy tomato shrimp was very good! Make sure to order a bowl of rice as well. Highly recommend that yall try different menu besides black bean noodle and jjamppong read more

Hsiang Yuen Restaurant - Spicy tomato shrimp - Chinese Near Me - Artesia, California

This is a classic restaurant that's been around since the prehistoric ages (when I was a wee lad). There is comfort in knowing that some things never change (at least in terms of flavor! Inflation is a pain!). I really enjoy this place to this very day and is some of the best that I've had. read more

I ordered the Jjajangmyun and the Tangsuyuk as take-out. I thought they were both ok, I've had better. The jjajangmyun had a lot of meat and veggies in the sauce but the flavor kind of lacked. The tangsuyuk also wasn't very crunchy, the sauce was a little too sour for my liking. It wasn't as balanced as I would've hoped between sweetness and sourness. The portions were quite big but at the same time, it was shockingly pretty pricey $35~ for just 2 items! Not sure if i'll be back. I think there's definitely other better restaurants in the area. read more

Jajang-myun and Yusanseul (유산슬) and calamari fritti is fantastic! I don't understand why negativity on the jajang? It is old school childhood memories flooding back. I love yusanseul and this place hits the mark. Always make sure a bottle of soju is it's mate, no matter what time of day! The calamari was perfectly fried and a great anju to help your soju. In my rotation for Korean/Chinese. Worth a 30 minute drive. read more

Before we walked in, we knew this spot would be great. We were on a quest to find delicious jjangmyeon and stumbled upon this hole-in-the-wall, authentic Korean spot. There was a lot of seating and the interior decoration made it feel homey. We ordered the jjangmyeon, sweet and sour pork, and spicy noodle soup. As we waited, we were served kimchi and radish as an appetizer. The kimchi tasted fresh and it was one of my favorite kimchis made because it wasn't too fermented. The food came out pretty quickly and the portions were pretty large. The jjangmyeon tasted fantastic and the sweet and sour pork was the perfect pair. The spicy noodle soup was so flavorful and the noodles were a great texture. It was such a great meal, I will be back for more. The people here are so friendly and very attentive. The food was fantastic and I really enjoyed my experience. Parking can be tight since there's only a few spots for a couple of businesses. We went at night, so it wasn't too much of a problem. Highly recommend! read more

Im just a white boy with some korean friends and I heard of Jajangmyeon one day and thought it sounded so good. One of them recommended I come to this place. They did not lead me astray. I absolutely loved the dish. Additionally the complementary kimchi and tea was excellent. All for a reasonable price in my opinion aswell. Highly recommend. read more

Authentic Chinese Korean restaurant. Really good jajangmyun. A little blend jjampong (yet ingredients were really good...not sure why the soup base was not having flavor), great Tangsuyuk. We will try jjampong again next time to see if it was a simple miss or I will need to add soy sauce. Overall it was a good find! read more

This place has been my grandparent's go-to jjajangmyun (black noodle) place. I finally gave it a try. It doesn't have the nicest seatings or ambiance. Just a mom and pop store. But their food is so great. Their sweet sour fried pork is probably one of the best that I have tried. So crispy and the dipping sauce is not overly sweet. The ladies are super fast getting your food. They were really busy with a lot of take-out orders even on a weekday. read more

We got there during Busy Busy lunch time on Sat. We barely sat at the table at the entrance. I was not feeling comfy. The customers passed right our table at the door. No relax this time. We got the menu for special lunch. Small portion w less expensive. We ordered fried dumplings, chicken w lobster sauce, and chicken kungpao. The foods were delivered so fast even thou they had lots of Take out orders. I liked the fried dumplings, Juicy and crunchy. For the chicken kungpao, I give 3 stars, missing something. Spicy but not really flavorful. The chicken pieces are too small, I couldn't taste the chicken. We both liked chicken w lobster sauce, mild, so creamy, soft shrimps w lots of veggies. I give 4 stars. Overall, I was not relaxed due to the corner of the entrance. People and the staff bothered me. However, I want more fried Dumplings. Today's best was fried dumplings. read more

OMG!!!! I found the real Chinese Korean style restaurant near Cerritos. Haha...my wife searched for over an hour then finally she said, let's go to try tonight. We ordered 3 items, sweet n sour pork, shrimps w hot garlic sauce, black been noodles w drink, Soju. I bite the shrimp, Omg......melted in my mouth. Perfect balance w garlic, chilis. Even sweet n sour pork is bomb. Super crunchy and rich sauce gives more flavors. And black bean noodles, I said right away this is the best noodles I never had. I go over the reviews on Yelp if I go to the new places, 70% of reviews are correct, and I am confident the reviews w 4 stars. Tonight was big success for my wife and I. The location is less than 6 miles and we can take out any time any foods. The owner is very friendly and attentive. We had lots of leftover foods and she gave us To go boxes, no problems to take all. Pros Price, quality, service, portion: 5 stars Lunch special hour: 11 to 3 Mon to Sat I strongly recommend this hidden jem for the catering, or just lunch, dinner take out. My wife picked the great Chinese restaurant tonight and we both were so happy. What a wonderful night!!! We really enjoyed our comfort foods. Thanks for the service. We got the free dessert, sesame balls. Love it! I like they serve the free hot tea, cabbage kimchi too. I can't wait to taste the lunch menus. read more

If you're looking for delicious authentic Korean-Chinese comfort food, this hole-in-the-wall is the spot. They used to have these everywhere in Cerritos, Artesia, and Norwalk, but they all seemed to have closed! VIP Chinese, San Dong Chinese... :( This is the only one I know around this area other than in LA. The food is great! The shrimp fried rice, jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles), crispy sweet & spicy shrimp (Kkanpoong Shrimp..sooooo good! Theeee best!!), and the unusually red spicy seafood noodle soup (Jjamppong). ALL really good!! The prices are higher than I remember but I guess it's expected with inflation. The servers/workers here are not the friendliest but I'm sure it's not intentional so don't take it too personally. As long as we get the food we ordered, we were happy. **For vegetarians/pescatarians: You could choose not to have meat in your jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles) but I'm skeptical that it's totally meat-free. read more

This gem has been here a long time! Hidden in a small strip mall. The food is consistently fresh, hot, flavorful. The best Chinese Korean restaurant in Cerritos. The owner always uses fresh vegetables and high quality meat even during the pandemic, and fluctuating economy. My favorite is the Mongolian beef, spicy fried shrimp and the basics black bean noodles and spicy seafood soup, fried dumplings, any fried rice, sweet and sour pork with the sauce on the side. If there is a line, just wait you'll be glad you did. I drive from Irvine and visit this spot, when the craving for comfort nostalgic food is present. read more

Truly one of THE best chinese-korean restaurants in the area. We usually order take-out.

Would 100% recommend read more

local and authentic. this is definitely the best korean-chinese restaurant in my books. i've been coming here since elementary school and it hits every single time. they recently renovated the exterior but the interior is still giving mom & pop shop/ cozy vibes! the service is also pretty quick and you lowkey gotta yell to get the waiters attention to order lol! the food is amazing. i always get their mongolian beef so tender and perfect during their lunch special (worth ur $$). of course the most popular/ mains i see people getting is the spicy noodle soup with seafood and the noodles with black bean. they are also my go to meals when i go here without a doubt. 10/10 read more

I was so excited to go try their black bean noodle, one of my favorite dishes! However, the restaurant seemed dirty, I saw flies, and when I saw the menu it had a bug on it. Regardless, I decided to give it a chance despite my observations because of their good reviews and ordered the black bean noodle for takeout and when I was eating it I found an eyelash hair and I put it on the corner of the plate to examine it and so I can take the picture but it came from the black bean noodle sauce. I am very disappointed and disgusted because I had already had a feeling the restaurant seemed off and dirty and to no surprise I found a hair on my food and I had already taken a few bites and I was so disgusted I threw it away after a couple bites, the black bean noodle flavor was good but will not return because they are very unhygienic. read more

Food is on point. Not authentic Chinese but Korean style cuisine. Always hits the spot.

This place has great black bean noodles. It's a small shop in the corner. I ordered the black bean noodles and the sweet and sour pork. It's so much food for one person. I ordered the food to go and they packed it up in a box with a side of kimchi. I really enjoyed the food here and would definitely go again. It's great for authentic Chinese Korean food. read more
