    My very first time to Miki Chan's Okazu Ya for a quick take-out dinner based on a recommendation by Roger from Pin Point Bowling Concepts. Thanks Roger! This restaurant is located within the Montebello Plaza. Tons of free parking so no worries there. Got here within an hour of closing time. Upon entry, my first impression was, it's a hole in the wall. Upon my last bite of the food, my last impression was, it's a hidden gem with a hole in the wall aura. It turns out this place is a fusion between Chinese and Hawaiian flavors. Cool! However, the name of the biz tells me otherwise. I was thinking Chinese and Japanese. I was greeted right away by Jenny. I believe she is the owner. She's a very friendly and nice lady. Thanks Jenny for your warm welcome and wonderful hospitality. Atmosphere was okay. A few tables and chairs for dine-in. Menu was quite massive. I wanted something simple so I got the special plate with 2 items that comes with white rice and/or chow mein noodles. First, I checked out the items under the heat lamps. There weren't too many options left since it was already late. The two items that still looked appetizing were the teriyaki chicken and stir fried zucchini + green beans so that's what I got. There was a fresh pan of broccoli and beef, but I don't eat beef. However, broccoli looked mighty fresh and green. I asked Jenny if she would throw in some broccoli in my plate alongside the chosen veggies. She said she couldn't do a full scoop because it would be considered a 3rd item, but a couple stalks of broccoli is fine. Thanks Jenny for the 2 tasty broccoli! As I was paying for my special plate, I looked up and saw the famous Miki Bowl to the right of the menu. Bowl is basically teriyaki chicken with white rice. I got it for my eldest daughter. She liked it! Here's my take on the food, everything and I mean everything was delicious. Chicken was perfectly marinated and so very tender. Good amount of it, too. YUM! Must get every time. All veggies were fresh, crunchy, and well seasoned. I was super surprised how tasty the chow mein noodles turned out. I couldn't stop eating them. It was that good. Rice is rice... nothing special. I highly recommend Miki Chan's for great service, amazing taste and flavors, exceptional value, and very generous portions (I think my plate was about 3 lbs of food). Come and get some tasty goodness! I know I'll be back for sure.

    Chow mein, beef and broccoli and teriyaki chicken

    This place has been one of my favorites since I was in high school, and it still never disappoints. The portions are generous, the prices are great, and the food is pure comfort for me. I especially love the chow mein noodles, beef and broccoli, and the chicken--everything is consistently satisfying. The service is always lovely and so friendly, which makes the experience even better. There are also a few seats inside if you want to eat there. Plus, they have really good boba. Highly recommend!

    11/03/2024 I come by here once a month, sometimes I feel like having some chowmein and beef short ribs. (Kalbi) Short ribs cost a little extra but still you get a lot of tasty food. I got chowmein, orange chicken and beef short ribs for about $15

    Was craving takeout so decided to stop by here to check it out. It is a small shop, your typical Asian take out to-go place. Although exterior-wise may look a bit worn down, don't underestimate this place. Upon ordering, they STACK the food, to the point of overfill, which got my jaw dropping. Such a good deal on the prices as well for that quantity of portion! I could not finish it at all, and ate it for 2 whole meals. Though the quantity was excellent. Regarding the quality of the food, it was just okay. As seen in the picture, the teriyaki was burnt, so I have to take points off for that. I felt as though the noodles and rice were a bit unflavored. Orange chicken was pretty good though. The staff there are sooo welcoming and friendly though, such sweet people!! Overall, I feel like its worth checking out, and the quantity is sooo worth the price.

    2-plate combo with all fried rice, broccoli beef, and orange chicken.

    Went to find a take out place nearby and came across Miki Chan's on Yelp. It's located in the same plaza as the Best Buy and Albertsons. The parking is easy, as it shares the extra large lot with other businesses. Miki's is near the corner of the plaza. It's a small place with the name above the front. The inside feels very familiar to other Chinese takeout spots with the food displayed in front. The menu has picture displays of the items as well as in list format. The staff that helped me was named Jenny and her energy alone was FANTASTIC. She was so welcoming and engaging...if anything else go to see her if you're in the mood for decent Chinese take out and an energy boost as she's full of life! But onto the food, typical Chinese takeout with broccoli beef, orange chicken, etc. I got a 2-plate combo with all fried rice (you can do half rice and have chow mein) with broccoli beef and orange chicken. The portions are GENEROUS and you'll definitely be full or stuffed with how much she packed in the container. I would say you could even split it between two people or split it into multiple meals. Overall I will definitely be going back, and just how elevated Jenny made my experience.

    I came to the shopping center to get my nails done and wanted a quick snack before I left. I just got one egg roll but it was super good. The lady that works there was very friendly and energetic.

    Well served, but was just Ok - BBQ pork, teriyaki chicken, Hawaiian noodles and chicken egg roll

QUALITY-unusually and OVERWHELMINGLY OILY. Way more than I would've expected, and detracted from the eating experience. **Cheese WonTon-wrappers were FRIED CRISP AND TENDER, but the decent dollop of cream cheese filling was overwhelming. **KUNG POW CHICKEN was the BEST DISH we had, barely spicy but it hid the oiliness better somehow. **NOODLE (?chow fun) SHRIMP was difficult to eat, and the EXCESSIVE GREASE COATED MY TONGUE so bad the i couldn't taste the shrimp or veggies. **BLACK BEAN BEEF was fair. OILY BUT FLAVORFUL. veggies were nicely cooked still crunchy, but the HARSH ONIONS were overpowering. sweet or milder onions would let me taste the other ingredients more. the beef itself was tender and tasty.

Lots of regulars in the restaurant it seemed. On this night , there were short staffed and I had to remind my server about my order a few times. The manager came out to apologize.

    I recently came back here again for a quick Sunday dinner and here are some of the key highlights:…read more * Parking was easy this time as I was able to find an available spot in the parking lot immediately. * I was able to check in 5 minutes ahead of time via Yelp and only waited 5 more minutes in person before receiving a text that our table was ready on Sunday at 7:30 PM. * One of the most efficient services for Chinese restaurants in the SGV (San Gabriel Valley) area as the staff wasted no time serving food, refilling water, and responding to a check request. * Ordered slightly different dishes this time and C1 Xiao Long Bao (juicy pork dumplings 8 pieces -$13.00) and C5 Beef Roll (6 pieces - $16.00) were A-tier dishes. Xiao Long Bao's flavor profile tasted more like steamed dumplings. Beef roll didn't taste as good as I remembered (probably because it had slightly less hoisin sauce), but it was still a good beef roll nonetheless. * Personally G4 Black Pepper Beef Fried Udon ($15.99) was a surprising discovery and an S-tier dish. Basically think of it as beef chow fun, but replace flat noodles with udon and add egg and bell pepper - excellent flavor profile. C3 Pan Fried Pork Bao (6 pieces - $13.00) were comparable to the ones from Kang Kang Food Court. 4.5 stars for the food with 4 items enough to feed 3 to 4 adults. I would say their noodle dishes like Beef Noodle Soup / Black Pepper Beef Fried Udon / Fujian Style Fried Vermicelli are slightly better than their dumpling dishes. Bump it up to 5-star for the excellent service. P.S. - There's another new location in Diamond Bar.

    8/29/2026: Wow! Second visit almost exactly 1 year later, and this place still doesn't disappoint!…read more We pulled in to the parking lot around 8pm on a Saturday night, and the very ample parking lot was packed to the gills. There are several restaurants in the lot, but Mr. Dragon Noodle House seemed to be the busiest with several groups of people waiting outside for a table. I called and was told they're open until 9pm, but if you arrive before 8:40pm they will still seat you and you can order and dine. He quoted a 10-20 minute wait which didn't seem possible, but we took a chance and placed our name on the waitlist. I love the tablets that most restaurants in SGV use. It's so efficient! The host handed us a laminated menu and an order form after we checked in so we could figure out what we wanted even before we sat down. They get high marks for efficiency! Within 10 minutes, we were called to our waiting table. They are a well oiled machine! As soon as a party leaves, a team of 3 smiling staff converge on the table to clear the dishes, clean the table and re-set for the next patrons. We ordered our drinks and a Popcorn Chicken appetizer. Hubby says this is the best popcorn chicken he's had to date, and he's a bit of a snob! No dipping sauces needed. He ordered "No Spicy" and they brought chili powder on the side. They fried what I believe was fresh basil with the chicken and it was so tasty, I would request extra next time! It's well seasoned and crispy. The portion is easily generous enough to share with 4 or more people. Their 0% Sugar Green Tea is served icy cold in a huge beer stein, and is so refreshing! A perfect accompaniment to the meal. It comes in many flavors as well but I didn't want anything sweet. We shared an order of their Hot Oil Shrimp, Pork & Cabbage wontons in a bowl. Delicious, but if you're not a heat seeker don't forget to request it "mild". Now for what I considered the star of the table, their House Special Beef Noodle Soup. This is a dish that I love and am always looking for the best bowl.. and Mr Dragon is high up there. Don't come at me, but we had heard the hype about Corner Beef Noodle House and tried theirs last year. In an evening without a crowd we were virtually ignored when we walked in and I had to accost someone to seat us. The soup wasn't nearly as good as Mr Dragon, and their service couldn't compare. I'll have to give them one more chance. There was no room for improvement at Mr Dragon Noodle House. Beefy broth, tender chunks of beef and perfectly bouncy noodles. Yum!

When you arrive, be sure to write your party size on the sign-in sheet to secure your spot--there often isn't staff at the door to assist, so you'll need to manage it yourself. We visited after a long day and only had to wait about 30 minutes. Overall, the food was pretty average--or "mid," as the kids say--and I didn't feel it lived up to the hype. Here is a breakdown of what we ordered: * #26 Shanghai Style Chow Mein ($13.99): This was the standout. The noodles are thick, almost udon-style, and it's great comfort food. I would definitely come back just for this dish. * #1 XLB Juicy Pork Dumplings ($9.99): These were just okay. Not bad, but not great, and I'd likely choose somewhere else for dumplings next time. * #16 Spicy Wontons with Pork and Shrimp ($11.99): These didn't "wow" me, though I did enjoy the chili oil. I might order these again. * #62 French Style Beef Tenderloin ($17.99): The meat was very soft, but I've had better versions elsewhere, so this will be a skip for me in the future. * #83 House Special Fish Fillet ($15.99): It was very crispy with flaky fish, but the batter was quite heavy. It was enjoyable at first, but I got tired of it quickly. While the Shanghai Style Chow Mein is worth a revisit, nothing else stood out enough to make this a regular spot for us. It's a 3.5/5 experience, but I probably won't be back anytime soon.

We usually come here for lunch either before our massage or after our massage, so it has become one of our regular places. That day, we stopped by for lunch before our massage. I ordered my favorite dish here, the Shrimp with Cashews, and my friend ordered the Seafood Noodle. I've been coming to this restaurant many times, but surprisingly, this was the first time I had ever seen the Seafood Noodle on the menu. I was curious about what it was like because my friend told me it is one of her favorite dishes. So, that day, I finally got to see it for myself. It came with two pieces of fresh ramen noodles, vegetables that looked like bok choy, and seafood underneath, including what looked like squid. I tried a bite, but honestly, it wasn't really my taste. So, I mostly enjoyed my favorite Shrimp with Cashews with lots of rice. I ate quite a bit, but there were still plenty of shrimp left, so I told my friend to finish them. My friend ended up eating quite a lot of the shrimp, too. Another thing I really like about coming here for lunch is that they offer unlimited rice, which is always a nice bonus. After we finished our meal, they brought out complimentary oranges. The oranges are always so fresh and delicious, and I really enjoy having them at the end of the meal. The servers are also always friendly and attentive, and they are quick to bring anything we need, which was really good. Since we went around lunchtime that day, we also got to see the servers sitting together around a large round table, having their own meal. It was actually nice to see them all eating together during their break. Overall, Boston Lobster is always a reliable go-to spot for us, especially when we're in the area for a massage. The food is satisfying, the service is friendly, and the unlimited rice and fresh complimentary oranges are always a nice touch. Since my friend drove that day, I paid for both the lunch at this restaurant and the dessert we had at another place afterward.

They have a very large seating area which accommodate large parties, which is good. The food here is delicious. Everything was incredibly reasonable with the exception of the fish.

Some of our food came out slightly more than room temperature which tells me that they probably have a lot of this pumping out. Nonetheless, the food was good. Our family enjoyed it with about nine dishes. We paid 650 with tax and tip.
