$5.00 per pound for their roasted pork, an excellent deal. A little bit salty but I mix it with a ton of veggies. I tried their duck with lunch plate and found the pieces of duck I got were not the breast or thigh but the back. A little too boney and "where's the meat". I won't buy the duck plate again but go back and buy a ton of their roasted pork to mix with my vegetables. read more

This worst place to buy duck or anything .they give old rice and poultry. I can't believe it. Other places with the same name better Fuck this place and it dirty . Health inspector need to check this place. I'm going to report it read more

**** Chinese BBQ goodness **** This place has some great BBQ roasted pork, duck, and chicken. The roasted pork is juicy with a crunchy outter skin. You can even ask for a specific cut with more or less fat depending on your preference. The BBQ duck is also soooo flavorful with the same signature yummy outter skin. These are always delicious entree items to add to any meal of the day. One thing to keep in mind is that this food is not cholesterol friendly. If you're ready for a triple bypass this may not be for you :-) The older gentleman at the front is always friendly and upbeat. Here's something I have noticed a few times I've been here. There are a few people that treat him with such disrespect (and you know who you are). Just because he may have suffered a stroke doesn't mean that he should be talked down to. So please, get your head out of your *ss and find yourselves some manners. Food = great Service = friendly Ordering area / eating area = clean Restroom = unknown read more

Usually, when i go to this place.. the guys working are nice. But when i went thursday morning. The guy working in the front was so flipping rude. And their thit heo quay was not good. I ended up having to go to a different place for better thit heo quay.. he was getting upset with me because i ordered small amounts of all their dishes. I just having buffet style. It was slow, i dont see the big deal... steer clear of their thit heo quay though. Just bite the bullet and go to the one of bolsa. At least the one on bolsa has an atm machine... he literally threw my change at me at the end.... i wanted to curse him out... i get its a vietnamese place and their customer service is not that awesome. But this dude was extra rude. Never coming again. read more

The guys working there are sooo rude. I went to buy a roast duck and bbq pork. I usually buy these items in Alhambra but was in the area so thought I'd try a new place. Wow, the level of rudeness was ridiculous. Overall it's just mind boggling. I am a friendly easy going person. I gave them zero reason to bark at me as they did. During this time of covid and I know businesses are struggling, initially I wasn't going to post this. However, I was just talking to my aunt and she said that she went there one time too and that is exactly how they treated her as well. read more

Roast pork (heo quay) was cold, stale, and dry. People buy this meat for the crunchy pork rinds. I didn't get any crunch on the pork skins. The pork was slightly more bearable after tossing them in the oven for like 20 minutes... Can't believe they serve this to the customers. read more

If I could give 4.5 stars that would be more truthful. I researched Lien Hoa BBQ while looking for places that could serve whole roasted pigs. With several locations, I knew I had found the place. The party was in Fullerton, and this seemed close enough. I actually had planned on going to the location on Bolsa, but earlier in the week, my dad brought me to this shopping center for lunch at the vegetarian Vietnamese place there. That's when I saw the sign for Lien Hoa. Recognizing that this was the same biz different location, I walked in. I met Dat, who told me I should order from him, since I was already there, and so with a deposit of 40$, so it went. So here is where the .5 star deduction comes in... I came back on Saturday at noon, as instructed with my receipt in hand. An older gentleman was there, I told him that I was there for a whole pig. Showed him my receipt. He looked puzzled, looked thru a drawer, then found the copy of the receipt. He then proceeded to to the back of the restaurant. The next few minutes were followed by yelling and screaming in some form of Asian Dialect, could have been mandarin, could have been Cantonese, back and forth, back and forth.... then the Older Gentleman comes out to the counter and holds up 2 fingers and says ..."OK... 20 minute".... I entertained by the what I had seen and heard, I had no choice but to wait. When the Pig was ready out comes the younger man from earlier in the week, apologizing for the long wait and admitting he was at fault for not having my order ready. Bottom line the Pig was well worth the wait, Skin crispy and full on DELICIOUS. I Believe we converted a few little children into Pig skin loving kids... Shout out to Olivia Anzalone who could not stay away from the Piggy before the party got a full swing on.... And there was plenty left over after the party for me to fry up with eggs in the morning and later on put in a crock pot with veggies for Pork Sandwiches.... They had Peking duck in the display and while I waited, several families came in to pick up what can only be assumed to be dinner for that night. Good stuff, fair pricing... ALL GOOD!!!! read more

If I can give this place a negative review I would give this a negative 5 stars. The meat tasted old like it was cooked in old oil or either it has been sitting there for a while. The service was even worse. The guy (boss) who rang me up was rude. The last time I came here, I only ordered $7 worth of meat because it was only for me. The guy scoffed at the "little" amount of money I spent. He rang me up and didn't give me any sauce. So I went ahead to ask if I can have a couple of the sauce to go with my food. He then had the audacity to say, "Why do you need the sauce when you only spent $7 dollars on your meal." I was angry and said "....to go on the bread?" Like what else would you use it for? I was going to call him out and say that he needs some manners and I am a paying customer. I decided to let it go and come on Yelp to vent about what went on. I think this review will help the Yelp community even more. He just lost a customer who normally orders about $30 worth of food whenever I order food here for the family. I will be finding another BBQ place to go. I hope you will as well. read more

Having been regularly going to those Chinese BBQ delis in San Gabriel/Rowland Heights area for years this place was lackluster. The Portion of the meat was kinda small for duck actually very small.. pork portion, however, was acceptable. Other than rice and the meat they only gave pickled cabbage which did not go along with the everything else.. I had expected some bok choy instead which is the more common side in other Chinese BBQ delis. Also, no soup was provided. Summary Comparison Chinese BBQ delis I have been going to vs Lien Hoa ( Lien Hoa is pretty much opposite of the list below ) 1. The Portion is generally better for both Duck/Pork 2. Have more varieties and also have lo mein option 3. Side Bok Choy and usually provide a soup but soup isn't anything spectacular, it is just nice to have on the side It is an ok place if you are in the area and craving this type of food because there aren't many options in the area. I personally would not come back again unless I have no choice at all. read more

Quality of meat is okay but service is the worst. Ordered 2 lbs of heo quay, 1 lb of xa xiu and 1 lb of pha lau. Tell me how I left with 3.7 lbs of heo quay, 1.4 lbs of xa xiu and 1.6 lbs of pha lau. I even asked the butcher to stop chopping the heo quay when I noticed there was more than usual and he had the audacity to say it just looks that way but it's really not. When it came time to weigh the meat, the guy didn't even mention how much it weighed at and just gave me the total $$ owed. NEVER AGAIN. If you come here, make sure to order less than what you really want since it's their practice to over-estimate. read more

Cheating. When I showed the sale person I wanted to buy one piece of port roast. After he weighed and turned around cut another piece that I didn't like put into the box for me. I was very disappointed. I'll never buy from this store again. read more

We were going to visit the parents and I wasn't sure what I was going to bring. Hmm, it's Chinese New Year so we should bring a roasted duck! The Lien Hoa BBQ Deli on Beach Blvd. is smaller than the other location on Bolsa but offers the same tasty roasted duck. We walked in the small, take-out, CASH ONLY deli and Hubby told one of the servers that he would like a roasted duck which cost under $20. The server takes one of the ducks hanging in the deli, butchers it into nice even pieces, and arranges our roasted duck in the to-go container with a couple of containers of sauce. Very Nice! We'll continue to return to Lien Hoa for their roasted duck which are reasonably priced and for their quick service. 4 Stars! read more

Lien Hoa has got to be my favorite place to get crispy pork! Their selection of meat is always good quality and never seems to disappoint. I often come here for lunch because it's just so easy to pick up food from here. I'm in and out within 5 minutes! Also super affordable! The 2 older men that work here are super adorable and friendly! They always know exactly what I want. I would give this place 5 stars but their liver and gizzard is very inconstant. Some days their liver could be super dry and not enjoyable while other days it could be soft and perfect! Also sometimes when they run low on gizzard he would just scoop me more liver.. but besides that only con I will always be a returning customer. They do offer Duck tongue on the weekends!! Highly recommend trying it! read more

Been craving some deliciously crispy roast pork and had my boyfriend swing by and pick some up. The roast pork here is soooo tasty! Tons of flavor and is very juicy. I ordered the pork belly meat so it can be a little fatty but whos counting calories anyways ...?! The combination of the fat and juicy meat just melts in your mouth. The sauce is not needed! OH and the skin...is just heavenly goodness... *droolsssss* CASH ONLY! I came here the first time without any cash on me only to be teased with the aromas. read more

A meal that I could easily eat at home once a week is Xa Xiu and Chinese broccoli. And the place that I feel has the best Xa Xiu (BBQ pork) is Lien Hoa BBQ! And it's at a great value too: $4.49/lb. Roast and Peking duck is available too, and it is just as savory; but for me, the pork excels! Very friendly and welcoming at Lien Hoa. I like that. :) read more

Ducks hanging in glass cases. Check Chickens staring at you back. Check Guy working at counter who barely is intelligible. Check We have reached an authentic Vietnamese BBQ place. I asked for the half-duck and a medium rice. Get the small. The medium is like 3 pounds of rice. Unless you're sharing, or at least have placed in the worlds competitive eating events, you should probably go for the small rice. The sauce is good, price is decent and the duck is delicious. BTW - strictly take out. Must make note of that when on a friggin' motorcycle. read more

Worst BBQ place I ever went to, the duck taste old and the pork as well, Came home ate a little because I was so craving it. Threw the rest in the trash. Must buy from Sam Woo BBQ, they are the best. read more

GET YOUR DUCK ON!, & pork, rabbit, quail...and do not forget to wrap it a blanket of rice and chili sauce. This place off of Beach blvd.has really stepped it up in the last few years. It used to be a place where nothing was in english and somewhat intimidating. It felt like you had to be an insider just to be able to place an order. Now there photos of the dishes available, lots of english explaining the origins of the dishes they serve & a welcoming counter to eat at if you can not make it back to car before you tear open the box. The pork belly has that shattering crisp skin with tender, silky meat that melts in your mouth. The duck is just insanely flavorful. I am making a mission for the next 30 days to try everything on the menu. I would say in the next 2 weeks, but a lady has to watch her figure you know! read more

This is a small deli that you can get great Chinese BBQ and Dim Sum from, which we've always done take out. Excellent BBQ Pork (crispy skin!) with a nice flavorful seasoning job. Generally if you want to get the good stuff you have to go early, especially if it's on a weekend. read more

Pros: Good BBQ duck, the owner is very helpful, cleaner than most Asian BBQ places Cons: Not a lot of seating (not really a con because it's more of a takeout place anyway). read more

Same as my other review: Best place I'm aware (Northern or Southern California) of for Chinese Roast Duck, Roast and BBQ pork. Both places are great i.e., Bolsa and Beach. They really got the 5 spice powder sauce down so much so that it reminds me of the great places in New York's Chinatown for roast duck. THE place to go for these items. BTW it's just for take out which for me means eat in the car! read more

Roast duck, Roast Pork, BBQ Pork, chicken, and pork intestines?! SO GOOD! When I use to work in Huntington Beach this would be the family take out spot once a week. Their duck is always juicy and the sauce/marinate is drenched with it. Their Roasted pork has a nice layer of crispy skin. Pork intestines?! Ooh oooh good! Not too chewy and was so good. The main man that works here was always nice and hooking us up with a little extra or something on the side. Even though his english wasn't great! He was always nice and friendly. Slightly loud but what do you expect?! Sadly, now I work in LB.. but every chance we get after shopping in Westminster for groceries, we stop buy here and pick up some tasty duck or pork! :) read more

Out of all of the other Lien Hoas in the area this is definitely the best one. The two nice men are really helpful and patient with me when I'm trying to decide on what to eat because everything is so delicious. We usually order the rice entrees and it definitely lasts 2 or 3 servings. I always come back even though I live nearer to the other ones. read more

Lien Hoa BBQ Deli - Barbeque Near Me - Westminster, California

The owner here is a really nice guy. If you speak cantonese he'll hook it up! The meats here are usually marinated pretty well and it is THE go to place for bbq pork & duck. I also get the lean meat here and it's full of flavor. O yeah make sure you bring cash. read more

Love going here its closer to my work. Its an asian spot so service is not 100 percent. The roasted duck or the chicken is what I usually get. read more

Never fails to disappoint. So they offer a lunch special deal for rice with 1 or 2 items of meat. Last 3 times I've come to get the rice with bbq duck and roast pork they conveniently give me the ducks neck with bone only and driest piece of roast pig. If you want to suck on bones and choke on cardboard meat give them a try. read more

Love this place! My usual order consists of chicken feet, whole chickens, a few pounds of pork belly and whole roast duck. It never disappoints. They even had plenty of roast duck on Chinese New Year's at noon. CASH ONLY! read more

I hate pulling the race card, but screw this place. Damn butcher skipped my ass TWICE. Whats worst was that he made eye contact with me TWICE. It has to be because I look like a Mexican. I'm not sure if I should blame that butcher that you apparently can tell he had past history of a stroke or those rude asian customer lady with the typical asian afro hairdo. I order the heo quay (the pig) and they only gave me MEAT! NO SKIN! WTHeo! Thats like sex without the orgasm. I have always referred my fellow gang members to this location, but never again. I gotta give them an extra star because it was clean and simple. It also has this bar type thing with couple chairs for you to dine in. Only the flies on my table enjoyed this meal, smell ya later. Andrew read more

Worst service ever. I came here to purchase an order of chicken on two different days. The first day, the left out one drumstick. Fine, whatever, mistakes happen. On the second visit they left out two drum sticks and there were about 3 pieces of meat, the rest of the chicken was just bones. That is unacceptable. read more

Came here for the first time.No dining area available. It was a food to go type of establishment. Purchased the roast duck, roast pork and soy flavored chicken.Menu selections were plentiful. Service was decent. The guy actually speaks English, which was helpful for my son who was home for Thanksgiving. Food Quality is why we are writing this review and for giving this establishment a low rating. HUGE Disappointment!!! All items were dry and did not have good flavor. The roast duck and pork skins were not crispy. How can you sell "roast" meat and not have the skin of the meat be crispy? Definitely will not be back! read more

Came to check out this place after a friend said it wasn't bad for soup, so I ended up coming and found out if I ordered the chicken salad for an extra dollar I could get the soup for a total of 7bucks. It wasn't bad for the portion and taste of food, if I'm near the area I would consider again. read more

Be careful and check your order before leaving. We ordered 2 lbs of of pork belly without bones and what we got was a layer of the right stuff on top and on the bottom layer was some other cuts of meat, more like thighs or whatever but it was definitely not pork belly. Drove back in, tried to show them and they argued with us saying that was pork belly. Finally had to demand our money back and drove to the Lien Hoa on Bolsa. Got exactly what we paid for: nice fattening pork belly with crunchy skin. read more

After trying multiple Chinese/ Vietnamese Bbq stores, this is the one my family and I go to. The pork and salted chicken are the best. Whenever we have a big event, we would order a small piglet a few days in advance. As for the service, these guys are on the coarse side when they talk but nothing rude to my family or I. read more

Let me ask you question, you love pig? you want eat pig?! I LOVE EAT PIG! This place has some amazing tasting pork dishes and I highly recommend it. read more

I will NEVER return here. They switch out what you pick out for white meat (thit nac), massive bones, and fat. I went here for the roasted pork. It looked SO good in the display case. They supposedly chopped up the "thit ba chi" piece I pointed to but, when I opened up the box at home, it was all white meat (thit nac), huge bones, and fat. I thought it was my mistake the first time and I returned. THAT was my mistake because, when I returned home, I got more thit nac, bones, and fat. This time, it was obvious that the switched it out. I returned here and pointed to the piece of roasted pork that I wanted, thit ba chi with no bones. He took that piece to place on the chopping block with his back turned to me. A little wiser, I opened the box before paying for it. I got more thit nac, bones, and fat again. I left without it and will never return. read more

Unlike their other locations, this location never gets busy, has easy parking, and conveniently located near the 405 fwy. Takes me less than 5 minutes to order my Peking duck, soy sauce chicken, or any other roasted meats. I've been coming here for over 15 years and there's a definitely reason why I keep coming back. They now have food for take out as well (congee, duck/ chicken salad, roasted pork or chicken with rice are among a few). Gotta give these a try next time. read more

Oh yes, it's so nice to have a Chinese deli reasonably close by. I was having a craving for roast duck and Googled it from Maps and of course it popped right up. A quick drive to Beach Blvd from the 405 and I was there. It's a small walk-up counter store front that features roast duck and roast pig. They have other items like chicken and barbecue pork and ribs, but I was there for the duck. I ordered one duck and one pound of roasted crispy skin pork belly. The butcher expertly chopped up my duck and pork and I was on my way. The prices here are very competitive with other Chinese delis that I have frequented. The roast duck was great, but the roast pork belly with the crispy skin was out of this world. Delicious. read more

Every time I walk it smells like heaven. Awesome chicken and rice and crunchy pork belly. I love the pork tripe. The service is not that good but the food is great. Being a white guy I get looks that suggest I may be lost. Then I order my yummy food and eat it all up at the small counter. And it is pretty cool being the only white guy on the place. read more

My parents have gone here for years to get roast duck and pork. While their duck is certainly delicious, I think the pork is definitely a stand out. The meat is nice and flavorful, not overcooked and dry and the skin is incredibly crispy (the best part of this pork, honestly, is the skin). Fast service, and good quality. Note, if it is your first time, this isn't a seated dining place, it's a pick up and take home kinda place. There are also traditional Vietnamese desserts and a few other side dishes that you can buy too. read more
