Tea egg
Angela C.

New restaurant that replaced Ever After so I was curious to try them out. I went on a Sunday afternoon and it was quite empty even though they have been opened for a month already. I got their beef roll and pan fried beef buns, both which had really good taste. I personally like my beef rolls with warm meat, but they have theirs with cold cut meats and more tendon than meat. The pan fried beef is good in flavor but the bun dough itself was on the thicker side. They were no longer doing the tea egg promotion but lady was kind enough to offer it still since it was only a few days since they ended. For the tea egg, they're typically a lot more flavorful but it tasted more just like a boiled egg. You can order directly by scanning QR code on the table which made it convenient. It did take some time for the food to come out which I hope they improve on given we were the only ones in the restaurant. Staff was friendly and the restroom was clean. Will definitely come back to try their noodles and stir fry dishes!

Casual spot for Chinese food with good portions. We really enjoyed the stir fried cabbage I liked the tangy flavor. We do not recommend the salty egg yolk shrimp - the salty egg yolk flavor was oddly sweet and milky and it looks crispy but it's mushy. The green onion pancakes were pretty good but lacked the green onion flavor and was pretty plain. Service was ok! It's self ordering thru app and self serve water, they don't come take away empty plates when ur done. I will say though that they have ALOT of variety and dishes so we may have ordered the wrong dishes.

Driving to LA, it's always traffic. We exited to get some drinks at Starbucks while waiting for the traffic to slow down before driving again, and I noticed there's a Chinese restaurant just opened next 2 doors down. The staff said they first opened May 10 , 2026 We tried their House special pork belly , Stir fried pork liver & kidney , and braised pork intestine , since it looks like everything is so tasty, we just ordered White Rice instead of the Fried rice. You also get a complimentary Tea Egg as a part of their grand opening. Everything had a good portion and they were delicious. Ordering is easy, just go to the counter or order by scanning their QR code. Servers were friendly, lots of parking, and plenty of seating Indoors or outdoors.

Beef Wrap (Chinese Crepe)

About 3 weeks ago, I discovered this place while randomly scrolling through Yelp. I decided to give it a try because it had good reviews for a new place. Since then, I have visited once a week, introduced this place to a friend, and we both really enjoyed it! When you first walk in, the restaurant has a very clean and calm atmosphere with hints of its origin and culture. You can order take out via the Kiosk by the cashier, or you can seat yourself and order via the QR code. I've always dined in because the food is so fresh and delicious! Forgive me for not taking a photo of each meal that I've ordered and tried... I could not resist just devouring everything as soon as it came out! I was able to take a few photos so enjoy those for now (maybe you can take your own photos if you can resist not inhaling it like Kirby & myself). *House Special Lamb Offal Soup: If you like lamb soup, this is a must order. The soup tastes so good and healthy (my favorite part). The meat is cooked well (chewy tripe texture, yum!) But a fair warning to those who do not know/like the taste of liver - just pick that piece out if it's too exotic for you (cause it's not for everyone!) Note: it does NOT come with noodles! Personally I like that it's just delicious, healthy soup and meat. Have yet to order noodles with it, so we'll see once I do. *Pork & Shepherds Purse Dumplings (12 Pcs): MUST ORDER IMO (in my opinion). Juicy, REAL meat and veggies (not paste-filling), all packaged in just the right chewiness skin. Can also be said about: - House Special Dumplings 12Pcs (Pork & Cabbage) - Pork & Cabbage Dumplings 12Pcs * Beef & Onion Dumplings 12Pcs: Pretty good, but I personally like the pork flavored dumplings more. * Pork Bun (6) Good quality, flavor, texture, and is juicy. * Chinese Tea Egg Simply exactly what it's called! Delicious. * Beef Wrap (Chinese Crepe) Served "cold" with fresh, thinly sliced cucumbers for a nice crunchy texture. Good skin, not too much sauce (a good thing), and decent meat portions. Pretty good overall. * Braised Beef Noodle Soup Good flavor, great noodles, good portion size, decent meat quality (can't remember fully because it was a shared dish) As long as Mama Ma's Kitchen continues doing these 5 things well, I will continue to come back: 1. The place is CLEAN 2. The SERVICE is great 3. The PRICES are reasonable 4. The PORTION sizes are good 5. The QUALITY and taste of the food remains amazing! TLDR; I recently discovered this place. It's SO GOOD and worth sharing with others!

Finished food 10/10

We ordered beef and broccoli, orange chicken, shrimp and pork dumplings, shrimp fried rice, chicken chow mein, shrimp wonton soup. Everything was delicious and we devoured everything. Good service and everything came out hot and fast. The vibe was calm and relaxing.

I didn't know that everafter tea got replaced by this store, so I stumbled on it by accident. Anyways it's a chinese place that specializes in soup dumplings and dumplings. The owner (I think) is super sweet and attentive, and the food is pretty decent too. The xlb I got was $9.99 which is much cheaper than ding tai dung, and the quality was pretty solid as well with flavorful soup and meat. The house dumplings were also good, so big ups overall - 7.5/10. The place itself is hella new and you can tell, basically nobody was inside when I went but if you want xlb without paying dtf prices you should try this place out.

smashed cucumber. a touch of sesame oil would have been nice but the portion was large for $6.99

The food was so ono (delicious)!!! It came out hot and fresh. The Kalua pork had good flavor with the perfect hint of saltyness to it, as what Kalua Pork should be. The mac salad was on point with the right balance of mayonnaise. The omlette also had good flavor the only downside of the omlette was that it seemed thin. We're used to getting omlettes that are fluffy, but overall the flavor of the Kalua Pork was what made our meal good. The Spam Musubi had great flavor with the Teriyaki sauce glazed on it and the Spam with fried perfectly. We will definitely be back to try out some of the other onolicious looking items on the menu.

Been hearing a lot of buzz about the Japanese fluffy pancakes craze, currently not offered in my…read morehometown in NorCal. Visited my buddies in SoCal recently, who raved about Fluffy Fluffy. Had to opportunity to check this place out prior to our trek back to NorCal, immediately following AYCE shabu, and I'm glad I didn't pass up on the opportunity, given that my stomach has seemingly reached full capacity. As we entered, we were gifted the pleasure of a warm greeting by a staff member who then sat us down and gave us first-timers a brief overview of the menu, his recommendations, and a brief history lesson about the origin of Fluffy Fluffy. After some waiting, we were presented with three aesthetically pleasing plates of these highly hyped fluffy pancakes. I then grabbed a knife and fork to cut into the stack of pancakes and was astonished by how... for a lack of better word, fluffy they were. Upon first bite, I expected a rush of sugar to register after a few seconds of chewing. However, that sensation never came. The pancakes were just the right level of sweet. A few minutes later, the plates were completely cleared and I was back to suffering from again reaching full capacity and thought to myself, "when will I ever learn?". All in all, great hospitality from staff, clean and upbeat ambiance, and most importantly excellent dessert items that were easy to consume without the feeling of developing instantaneous diabetes after finishing. Highly recommended.

I also ordered their waffle salmon sandwich-it came with fries and salad-large portion but wasn't impressive. The restaurant was empty and we had to wait awhile for the cashier to come out to help us-even though there's a little window that I can hear as well as see the chef and cashier talking. Lots of tables to sit and very bright kiddish environment.

A weekend visit may provide a more relaxed experience. Overall, it is definitely worth checking out for the food, drinks, service, and unique ambiance.

I'm always skeptical of such a highly rated brunch spot. Bc brunch food is easy to make but is it…read morereally THAT good here? Answer is yes! Wait time was perfect. Wasn't too long. All of our food came out fresh. I had the scramble and side salad. Salad was fresh and just enough dressing on it. I tried my friend's lemon ricotta hotcakes and it was sooooo good. Perfectly fluffy. Great lemon flavor and that butter they make is to die for. Don't get it if you are borderline diabetic. Get something else. Bc you'll want to eat more and more. But it's the perfect amount of sweet. It's not overpowering. I also ordered their seasonal ube matcha latte and that was delicious. Service was friendly. And one of the girls was seen scrubbing clean a toddler high chair. Most places have sticky high chairs. Seeing her wipe and scrub it down in all the creases let me know this place is well taken care of. Glad we stopped by.

In hindsight, we would've rather just canceled the order and received a refund the moment everyone else had finished eating and I was still waiting. Wish they were more apologetic or communicative about it.

I've enjoyed eating at various Aloha Stacks locations for the past decade as they've opened more…read moreand more locations. I finally had a chance to eat a very late breakfast on a weekday at their restaurant located at The Bluffs shopping center. The interior is about the smallest of any Aloha Stacks I've been to. While there are minimal tables indoors, there are many under a huge covered patio to the side plus a few more tables under umbrellas in front. It was nearly noon and I had no problem finding an indoor table after ordering at the counter. I ordered a plate of regular French toast with side containers of coconut syrup along with a serving of Portuguese sausage and an iced mocha latte. My food and drink were delivered to my table in a few minutes. By the way, all the staff here are so cheerful and helpful! My French toast was done perfectly - 3 pieces cut in half. Although it's not on the menu (I guess it's a secret item), I always ask for coconut syrup when I order French toast or pancakes. It comes very creamy in the containers but once spread, it semi-liquifies into a syrupy consistency and is DELICIOUS! Be sure to ask for it and give it a try. I am a huge fan of their Portuguese sausage. It balanced the sweetness of my French toast and has excellent flavor with a hint of spiciness. The iced mocha was good with a strong chocolate taste, more so than coffee. I've loved every meal I've had at different Aloha Stacks locations and this one is no exception.

Everyone else enjoyed their meal except for the kids. They didn't like the taste of the burgers. My husband raved about the pork chop and I saw the fried chicken sandwich from a distance, it looked huge. A little pricy but I would love to come back and try a couple of other things.
