I liked…read morethe fried pork chop, they were flavorful and crispy on the outside, the pepper gave it a little bit of kick. The side of cabbage was okay, but there were an braised egg and tofu, really nostalgic. My husband went straight for the Taiwanese braised pork rice, and it was good too, the bowl was huge, and the pork was perfectly braised but not greasy. It also came with an egg and a tofu. The fried fish cake was good, crispy on the outside and a little bit chewy on the inside. The papaya milk was very refreshing, one of my favorite drink in Taiwan but hard to find in the States. The staff were friendly and the owner was hospitality. They have a lot of options that I'd like to come again and try.

You order at the counter, and while the staff is small, they're incredibly warm and welcoming…read more Despite that, our food came out surprisingly fast. The Taiwanese braised pork was unlike anything I've had before -- melt-in-your-mouth tender, almost buttery, with a rich, savory-sweet glaze that soaked into every bite. The portions were generous, more than enough to leave you full and satisfied. The coconut milk tea was the perfect finishing touch creamy, and just sweet enough. Honestly, if I hadn't been so busy stuffing my face with the pork, I would've chugged the whole cup. Overall, a fantastic experience great food, great portions, and genuinely lovely people running the place.

We usually get their tawainese supreme soup, but we replace it with thai flavored broth because we love the thai broth a lot - yummy sweet sour broth. It comes with a bunch of toppings - Taiwanese cabbage, instant noodles, beef slices, beef tendon, enoki mushroom, tempura, clam, fuzhou fishball, cuttlefish ring, pork blood rice cake, pork intestine, fried tofu skin, brown beech mushroom, tofu imitation crabmeat, meatball, sour mustard, fried tofu puff, cilantro, scallion. Service is always so quick and efficient. You scan a QR code and place your order through the phone. Soup comes out within 10 minutes. There is also this soybean sauce condiment and it is addicting. We dip it with all of our toppings and love it so much. There is a lot of tables, but can get quite busy during the dinner rush. It is so worth it though. Prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. I usually share it with someone else too. Tasty pot is one of our go to placese when we are craving soup. Parking is easy.

Do not come here. We ordered 2 pots (1 lamb 1 beef) and they were around $25 each. There was barely…read moreany meat and the little amount of meat that was there was dry overcooked and terrible cuts. The soup had little to no flavor was just like beef broth or something. Restaurant was hot making it miserable to eat here as they leave both doors wide open to the 120 degree heat. The balls and toppings in the pots were stale and cheap supermarket frozen meatballs. Disgusting and a waste of $55. First time eating at a restaurant where we didn't finish the food. The food was that disappointing AND overpriced. If it was cheaper and just as terrible taste-wise and portion-wise, I would've given 3 stars. Save your money and go to the better famous hot pot place literally in the same plaza.

Despite a few hiccups with our orders (totally understandable with a big group in a cozy spot), the staff were incredibly helpful and attentive throughout the night. The menu at Zen Zen Dojo is pretty diverse - they offer everything from sandwiches and Asian fusion dishes to Taiwanese and Chinese-style night grill options, as well as rice and noodle bowls and Bento boxes. Plus, the fact that they share the space with Himeko Cafe next door adds an extra layer of charm. We pretty much ordered a bit of everything on the menu, and I have to say, it was all pretty delicious. The place seems to be a favorite among ASU students, but our rowdy group definitely stood out among the crowd. The decor is quirky and fun, with cute animated characters and pictures that really set a laid-back vibe. All in all, Zen Zen Dojo brought back some great memories of my college days and made me feel like a student all over again.

Brother Wen (owner) decorated the place nicely and tonight the restaurant was packed with people! There was red everywhere! Food tonight was special for Lunar New Year and the sesame oil chicken soup was set up for each table! This is one of the dishes they excel at and you have to call ahead a few days to have this dish ready when you come. We also had Chinese sea bass tonight and that is one of my favorite Chinese dishes. I love fresh fish cooked well and this place does a really great job! We also tonight had Buddha Jumping Over Wall dish and I enjoyed the many Chinese veggies in the dish including bamboo shoots. There was also a nice sautéed cauliflower dish, just like the way my mom cooks it. I even tonight for special occasion had a Taiwan beer, it's been a long time since I had one and being in a Taiwanese restaurant, it felt appropriate. A really fun evening tonight and Brother Wen even went around to every table to wish everyone a very Happy Lunar New Year! I just wished we had gotten the karaoke machine going, that would have been so much fun! Happy Lunar New Year of the Snake. May you have good health, wealth and happiness (and yummy food in your tummy)!

I graduated high school and am moving soon hence why I am leaving a review now. During all four…read moreyears of high school I hung out there to study and chat with friends. All the food is really delicious and every appetizer I've eaten there has been really filling. The owners are friendly and clearly very passionate about their food. They remembered my friend and I and our favorite orders even after we stopped going regularly for a few months. Fusion Tea Lounge is an awesome place to study or just chill, and I'm going to miss it when I move.

The service was exceptional--friendly, kind-hearted, and attentive to every request, always with a smile. From the moment we walked in, we felt genuinely welcomed. I initially thought they only served tea and specialty drinks, but their menu is impressive. They offer everything from appetizers and wings to teriyaki dishes, noodles, desserts, and more. There is truly something for everyone. If you're looking for a comfortable spot with great food, delicious drinks, and outstanding customer service, I highly recommend giving this place a try. It's a hidden gem that's definitely worth a visit!

Heng's Kitchen is located at the very left of the food court of Mekong Plaza. I met up with a…read morefriend and her husband, and my main goal was to satisfy my XLB craving! Order at the cashier, grab a number, and food will be served to you. Needless to say, I ordered the 4. Shanghai pork mini soup dumplings which were $10.25 for 6 dumplings. I would've loved less dough, more soup, overall bigger portion size (larger dumplings or more of them). Otherwise, the soup itself was tasty. We also ordered the 14. Chongqing Fried Spicy Chicken $13.95, which was a platter of boneless chicken and peppers. I was very impressed with the crisp exterior but soft/juicy interior of the chicken. I'm not usually a spice person, but I was left feeling tingly but not in pain and not numb. Overall I found Heng's Kitchen to be disproportionately pricey given the taste and portion sizes. I'm pretty critical and discerning about my XLB, and this place did not totally satisfy my craving, although I was pleasantly surprised about the chicken. Note: rice is not included with any dish and is $1 extra. Free room-temperature self-serve water available.

Passed it twice but finally found it tucked between a McDonalds and a vacant adjacent business. Once we found it there were plenty of open spaces in the lot just south of the restaurant. Atmosphere 4/5 Curb appeal left a low initial impression as the business pads in the complex are a bit dated. Inside, the dining room was clean and not busy at all. Most of the business while here was call in pick up orders. Service 5/5 Given we were the only customers in the dining room we essentially enjoyed private service which was friendly, prompt. Food 5/5 Dim Sum is run by a family and serves Cantonese style food which is different than other regional Chinese dishes. Variety is a beautiful thing. Our order was a sampling of dishes to get an idea of what the food was like. Ordered steamed pork dumplings. Beef brisket and tendon soup. BBQ pork fried rice. Singapore Chow fun. Everything was delicious, my favorite was the brisket soup. To die for flavor backflipping good. My second favorite was their pork dumplings then the fried rice. All entrees came with very generous portions and could easily be shared. I brought home plenty for leftover lunch Saturday.

I was so very much looking forward to the dim sum here from other reviews, but didn't enjoy most of the items. The skin on the har gow and the shu mai were inedible.

When we got there the place was small and fairly busy but we were able to be seated quicker than I thought. I was surprised how quickly the food came out as we did order 9 dishes in which all of them were tasty! The server was welcoming and provided proactive service. He was always around to refill our drinks and take any empty dishes off our table. I don't know if we were just all hungry but all the food was yummy! My favs were the stir fry eggplant and minced pork with garlic sauce + Salt and Pepper Fish Fillet. They had a lot on the menu that I have yet to try.

Try these and see what they should REALLY taste like. 10/10 Secondly, the orange chicken ACTUALLY tastes like real, fresh orange!! Not overly sweet and doughy like most places. The flavor is phenomenal. Only thing is, I wish they were a little crispier but I'm sure you could request that upon ordering. Fried rice and noodles are also delicious! First time I got the dumplings there, and second time had them delivered. Equally delicious- which I was worried about. Just so you know! :)
