    Hong Kong Style Pineapple w/ Butter (2)
    Brian C.

    I love Cantonese Styled Breakfast. It's quick and delicious. This place is called Tasty Spot but I think it's essentially Delicious Food Corner in disguise? They have a great deal for dim sum where you choose 2 dim sum dishes and get a complimentary drink (I.e. coffee, milk tea, lemon tea). Can also get your usual Asian breakfast with porridge and chow mein noodles as well as all the usual dishes like Pineapple Bun, rice noodle shrimp, etc. Lots of parking in the back. Can get pretty crowded on weekend morning. Breakfast ends at 11:30am.

    WHY I CAME HERE? They used to be called Delicious Food Corner. Now they are Tasty Spot Cafe. Anyway, I was here to pick up dinner for my youngest daughter. FOOD / DRINK: Got two orders of the Shredded Pork Chow Mein (crispy style). Very tasty pork especially with the gravy. Crispy noodles were great. I also got a cup of water. STAFF / SERVICE: The gentleman who helped me with my order was pleasant and nice. Thank you sir for your great service. INTERIOR / AMBIANCE: Inside space has an open concept with a lovely red decor. They have bench seating along the window plus standard tables and chairs. Restrooms are available for use. No key code required. EXTERIOR / PARKING: Free parking in the back of the restaurant. It has adequate number of parking spots, but if they get super busy, the lot will fill up very fast. Do come here early for lunch and/or dinner to avoid parking challenges. RECOMMEND THIS PLACE? Yes, this is a great spot for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Come support them! They are known for their breakfast items. I want to come back to try their dim sum one of these days.

    This spot used to be DFC (Delicious Food Corner) but it looks like they've rebranded -- though the menu seems pretty much the same. We came for Tuesday dinner and it was fairly quiet, with maybe four other tables when we arrived. Food-wise, everything was tasty, and they even served a complimentary soup and dessert, which was a nice touch. The best part, though, is the pricing, very reasonable, especially for a restaurant located in Arcadia. Here's what we tried: Crispy Salt Fried Chicken - Pretty good! Slightly pink inside but seemed fully cooked. Nice crisp texture and balanced salt flavor. I've had better, but still enjoyable. (4/5) Shrimp and Egg Gravy with Rice Noodles - Decent, though a bit lacking in flavor. I added some chili to give it a kick. Not bad overall. (3.5/5) String Beans with Meat - Really good and only $11.99, plus it came with rice. Great value and something I'd definitely get again. (4.5/5) Kung Pao Chicken - Another $11.99 dish and my favorite of the night. Flavorful, satisfying, and came with white rice -- best bang for your buck. (4.5/5) Overall: Solid food, great prices, and a relaxed atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out, especially if you're in the area. Parking: Plenty available, they have a lot.

    Singing Chicken Hot Pot was not good

    This is one of the worst Hong Kong style cafes I've been to unfortunately. Also, it's very confusing how the outside of the restaurant says "Tasty Spot Cafe" BUT the menu and the uniform the staff says "Delicious Food Corner" Parking was ok since there was a small parking lot in the back of the restaurant Staff were not too friendly or attentive. I don't think I was even offered a water refill even though my cup was empty for most of the time. I tried couple times to get their attention for a water refill and was just ignored so I stopped trying Inside was pretty spacious with plenty of seating. I went for the $11.95/dish special they were having and there were 22 dishes to choose from. Keep in mind these dishes don't come with rice so rice is an additional charge. The rice was beyond disappointing - it was literally undercooked and did not taste fresh and fluffy as rice should taste like! The Singing Chicken Hot Pot was served in a small and rusty bowl. The chicken was extremely salty and inedible. Honestly, there were hardly any chicken pieces and it was mostly just a bunch of onions and a couple red peppers. This was 4/10 The Sweet and Sour Cod Fish was just ok. The fish didn't taste fresh and was somewhat mushy on the inside. The outside was crispy and it wasn't too greasy. This was 5/10 Braised Tofu Roasted Pork Hot Pot ($19.75) was so extremely salty and the roasted pork was very hard to chew. The braised Tofu didn't taste fresh and felt too deeply fried. The inside of the tofu wasn't as soft as I was expecting so I doubt this was made in-house. This was 4/10 Overall, I had a very disappointing experience and I would not recommend or return.

    We just tried the Tasty Spot Cafe in the Arcadia location for lunch on Mother's Day. (It used to be called Delicious Food Corner.) It's located on Baldwin Ave next to the KFC. I've been going to different Delicious Food Corner and the Tasty Spot Cafe locations, but haven't had a chance to try this location. My mom wanted to try this location because she heard the radio commercial that they had Mother's Day Specials. It was spacious inside compared to other Tasty Spot Cafes. We reserved our party of 5 a few days ahead, and the Mother's Day menu included the following: -Soy sauce chicken half 古法豉油雞 -Fresh beef (Filet mignon) 法式牛柳 -Egg Tofu with mushroom玉子豆腐炒鲜菌 -Seasonal Greens in soup 上湯時蔬 -Lobster E-Min (Noodle) 薑蔥龍蝦伊麵 -Dessert -Osmanthus Flower Jelly (桂花糕) We also ordered HK-style Milk Tea and HK-style Lemon Tea. All the food tasted delicious, the portion size was good, and we liked the filet mignon, egg tofu with mushroom, and Lobster e-min. They were very flavorful. The service was okay, but slow that day because they were busy on Mother's Day. They also serve dim sum, but we did not have room to try it this time.

    Came here to meet up with a few in laws. I believe this restaurant is both Tasty Spot Cafe and Delicious Food Corner - which is a little confusing when pulling into their large parking lot. We came for the breakfast special which is choose 2 items and a drink for $13.95. Prices on other items/entrees are comparable to other cafes in the area. The food is ok, not bad but not memorable either. The interior is pretty big and it the floors and tables were all very clean.

    BBQ plate
    Y W.

    Im a frequent here,the place feels cozy and welcoming, and the staff were friendly without being pushy. I ordered their BBQ plate and Peking pork chops,cboth were excellent. The pork belly was nice and crispy which I really liked. What stood out most was how quickly everything came out and how clean the space was. It's the kind of spot that works for a quick bite or a relaxed morning. Overall, I'm glad I stopped by. Good food, good service, and a comfortable environment.

    Wonton noodles soup
    Vanessa H.

    I decided to come here for their breakfast specials. I've been to other delicious food corner locations in the past but this is my first time coming to this location. Though it says delicious food corner, it's also called tasty spot cafe on yelp and on their website which is a little confusing... I got their wonton soup and that came with rice noodles with dried shrimp and a cup of milk tea. This meal is part of their breakfast specials. Service was pretty quick as I didn't need to wait long to get my food. The wonton soup was okay at best but it left a little bit of a bitter aftertaste. The broth was super light in seasoning and the noodles were a little too al dente to my liking but the wontons were pretty good and were the best part of the dish. I got rice noodles with dried shrimp as the side and I enjoyed it more than the wonton soup! The portion size was pretty good especially since it's a side dish and I liked how it wasn't completely drenched in soy sauce. It also came with some hoisin peanut sauce to dip the rice noodles in. Overall, the food just tasted okay but I think I will stick to their other locations.

    Egg and Pork rice
    Nancy L.

    The food was overall good with many traditional and yummy Chinese food. Additionally, they have fresh seafood on display LIVE which looked very appetizing.The service was ok but took a bit of time. Additionally, the food took about 5-10 minutes which was crazy because of the amount of customers. Finally, it is a bit loud and can be overwhelming sometimes but not too loud. Would come again. ;D

    Salt and pepper egg tofu
    Arnold T.

    Surprised that it was fairly empty on a Saturday night around 7 p.m. This location offers several items at $11.99, which, all things considered, is an excellent deal. Since it was fairly empty when we stopped by, service was prompt and we got our food in less than 10 minutes. We ordered the salt and pepper tofu, soy sauce fried noodles, wonton noodle soup, egg tofu with fish, and bbq with egg. Taste is definitely consistent with several of the DFCs that I've been (DB, Irvine, MPK, Hacienda Heights). Since I'm a fan of tofu, the salt and pepper tofu was my go-to (crispy on outside and silking on the inside). Interior is clean and spacious. There's a private lot in the back. Definitely a casual place to go if you're hungry and can't make up your mind on what to eat.

    Tasty Spot Cafe, formerly Delicious Food Corner, has a new name but keeps the same reliable menu. We're regulars here for breakfast or brunch, drawn by their special set that includes a milk tea, a main like congee or a Western-style option (think eggs and steak), and a side like noodles--all a solid deal. We've been coming almost weekly, and the service has noticeably stepped up with friendlier, faster staff. For lunch or dinner, their special menu offers 10 to 15 dishes for just $12, another great value we often enjoy. Plus, there's a big parking lot out back. A dependable spot!

    Love these breakfast places in the 626 area, had to check out another Delicious Food Corner in Arcadia. This location has a nice size parking lot and an over for lot to park in. I ordered the wonton noodle soup and it came with a choice of the butter bun or steam rolls. The wonton noodle soup combo came with three wontons and noodles were nice and bouncy, cooked perfectly. You also can't go wrong with the stream rice rolls, which paired perfectly with the hoisin and peanut sauce. The salt and spicy chicken wing was perfectly fried, flavorful and juicy. Service was great, quick and fast! Ambiance was also great, clean and spacious.

    This place was big and went on a good day because there was only one big party in the private room and we pretty much had the whole restaurant to ourselves, aside from a few smaller parties. This was a cool place because they had both Chinese food and you can order dim sum dishes too. I didn't get any dim sum because my family was in charge of the ordering. But my parents loved everything here. Here's what we ordered: Sweet corn and minced chicken soup: 10/10 Honey walnut shrimp: 10/10 Fish filet with black bean sauce: 7/10 Sauteed chinese broccoli with dry flounder fish: 10/10 Yang chow fried rice: 9/10 Seafood chow mein: 8/10 Half roasted duck: 7/10 Overall, i love all the choices here and want to go back and try to add dim sum dishes.

However, the sauce came in a plastic sauce container and was on the bland side. I preferred dipping it with hot mustard and soy sauce... PORK & SHRIMP SIUMAI: 7/10 I only tried half a piece and stopped. I'm not sure why but, it tasted like it was too dry and it was small as well. The filling of the shrimp and pork wasn't as juicy as it should be so I stopped eating it... TARO CAKE: 6/10 I took one bite and had to stop because it was TOO SALTY. Did someone drop a bag of salt into this dish while making it? SERVICE: 9/10 Good Service. They also speak English! They are attentive and will come around if you need more napkins And Togo boxes...

TK Cafe has thoroughly impressed me off first impression, and if I was closer, I'd probably be a regular here. For how much we ordered, the food didn't take too long to come out and genuinely, was so good. We got a lot here, from the garlic shrimp to the popcorn chicken, and so much more. The popcorn chicken was, without a doubt, my favorite item. We originally came here because a friend said they had the best popcorn chicken, and I'd honestly agree. It was crispy but also still a bit juicy and I feel like most places go heavily into the crisp aspect and it ends up just seeming overcooked. But it was a 10/10 here. The proportions are huge, so it's easy to over order. The crab rangoons were good on the portions and crispness and not overly filled with cream cheese which is nice. The noodles were good, pretty average, same with the Mac salad. The garlic shrimp was a bit overly garlic-y, but it was still good. If you're looking for a new Hawaiian spot, definitely check out TK Cafe. The proportions are huge and the taste is amazing. If I'm ever in Monrovia again, I'd definitely be stopping by!

During the day they serve dim sum, and at night they switch over to Cantonese seafood dishes. I've eaten here many times for dim sum.

Since I live nearby, it's one of those convenient spots I find myself coming back to. This visit was for dinner. We ordered a fish dish that was pretty interesting (honestly not sure what the exact name was), an oyster omelet, and clams with basil. Everything was tasty and definitely made me go through a couple bowls of rice. One thing I always appreciate is that they still give complimentary dessert at the end of the meal. We got green bean soup and some ma lai gao, which was a nice way to finish dinner. Overall, Ocean Bo is one of those neighborhood gems that has stood the test of time.

    Not the first time but very satisfied for our most recent visit here…read more It's been a while since we last ate here and we had family dinner as a party of 10, so we were given a private room with 3 hot pots. We had beef, lamb, and pork slices for hotpot which we ordered 5 each per order. We had two pots original and one spicy. The meat slices were very thin so cooking time wasn't long and we paired it with various sauces, so if you make a good sauce it'll be even better. The buffet selection definitely changed, there's more hot foods and they no longer have mini sausages. I do enjoy their char siu and their varieties. Staff were pretty attentive with making sure our tables are cleared and if we need more meat. Since we were in a private room, they still came by to check on us. Overall, I did enjoy this place and would come again! I think not everyone liked how thin the meat was sliced but I'm fine with it. Ice creams costs money as well.

    I'm deeply disappointed with the decline in cleanliness and overall quality of this establishment…read moreover the years. What was once a delightful place to visit has steadily deteriorated, and my recent visit was the final straw. As someone who has worked in food service, I understand the significance of proper sanitation and food safety practices. What I witnessed was truly disturbing. Employees were wearing the same pair of gloves while performing various unrelated tasks without changing them. I observed staff handling dirty items, picking up debris from the floor, pushing dirty carts, touching shared surfaces, using their phones, and even making physical contact with one another all the while continuing to wear the same gloves when handling customer items. Gloves are designed to prevent contamination, not spread it. Wearing the same contaminated gloves throughout an entire shift defeats their purpose and creates serious cross-contamination. There seemed to be a complete lack of awareness of basic food safety standards. The dining area was equally disappointing. The menus were visibly greasy and oily, as if they hadn't been cleaned in ages. During slower periods, most restaurants take the opportunity to wipe down menus, sanitize surfaces, and maintain cleanliness throughout the establishment. Unfortunately, this wasn't the case here. The salad bar was in a state of disarray. Ingredients were scattered, vegetables were mixed into the wrong containers, and food was spilling over the sides. The entire area looked neglected and unorganized. Instead of appearing fresh and inviting, it looked messy and unsanitary. To add insult to injury, much of the dishware appeared dirty. Plates, bowls, and utensils had oily residue and didn't look properly cleaned before being put back into service. There's nothing more unsettling than wondering whether the dishes you're eating from are actually clean. Dining out should be a pleasant experience, but this establishment fell short on multiple fronts. The lack of sanitation practices, visible cross-contamination, dirty menus, messy food stations, and unclean dishware left me feeling disgusted rather than satisfied. Given this disappointing experience, I won't be returning. It's disheartening to witness such a noticeable decline in standards, and I hope management takes these concerns seriously to prevent any potential health risks.

    Decided to give this place a try after it was recommended to me by a friend…read more The interior was spacious and well-kept. It was a bit of a pleasant surprise and immediately sets a comfortable tone. The service was quite impressive... extremely attentive, friendly, and quick. 8/10 for the food. 10/10 for the price point 10/10 for the service. The food was definitely solid for the price point. There were a few misses, but the dishes that landed were executed really well. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area! Siu Mai 10/10 - Juicy, plump and perfectly executed. Definitely my favorite dish. Bean Curd Skin Roll in Abalone Sauce 9/10 - Flavorful with an excellent texture. The whole dish was well executed. Beef Chow Fun 8/10 - Solid and flavorful. The beef was tender, and the noodles had a great texture. Yangzhou Fried Rice 8/10 - The rice was moist and the seasoning was spot on. Shrimp Egg 8/10 - Soft and well seasoned. Generously portioned with very plump shrimp. Pork Chop Spicy Salt 8/10 - Crispy and slightly salted. It has a really great texture to it. Salted Fish and Chicken with Eggplant 8/10 - Perfectly seasoned and cooked. Generous portions of chicken, salty fish and eggplant. Chicken Feet 7/10 - It was solid. Not the best, but definitely not bad. House Special Crispy Shrimp Rolls 5/10 - The flavor of the shrimp was okay, but the rolls were really greasy. There were three very small rolls, definitely not my cup of tea. Chili Wonton 3/10 - By far my least favorite dish. The wonton skin tasted very flour-y, and hardly had any filling. The filling was also very bland and the chili oil was very underwhelming. By the way, the tea is free (I know, free tea at a dim sum spot).

    Bistro 1968 - One of the best value dim sum spots I've been to lately in the SGV. So here, they…read morehave many dim sum dishes around $4.88, which is such a steal for the portion and quality. For dishes like the beef chow fun and steamed fish for about $14.88, making it super affordable for a large group meal. The food came out fresh and hot, and the menu had a lot of variety to choose from. The restaurant gets busy, on weekends but service moved pretty efficiently overall. A perk for this place is that they do have a parking garage, which made parking way less stressful compared to other busy dim sum spots in the area.
