I have Celiac disease and came here on 7/13/26 after seeing it hyped online that they offer gluten-free options. My husband ordered the gluten-free beef chow fun ($15.95.) I asked the waitress if they cook the gluten-free noodles in fresh water to prevent cross contamination because not all noodles that they offer are gluten-free. She said she'd check and then came back and said yes. My husband got the gluten-free lunch portion of short ribs for $17.50. The soup that comes with the lunch specials isn't gluten-free. I got the gluten-free Mongolian beef for $22.00 and a side of small rice for $1.95. Food tasted great and the portions were generous. Unfortunately I had the worst glutening symptoms of my life afterward that have included more than a day of elevated blood pressure right after eating and 3 days of diarrhea. I can't say that it was 100% this place because that cyclosporiasis parasite is going around (and I had green smoothies more than a week ago) but the timing is suspicious. I also noticed that there wasn't one of those "employees must wash hands" signs in the bathroom. I hope I'm wrong and I didn't get glutened here but it was not even 30 minutes later that I st

Delicious Chinese food with a unique menu. Have never had halal Chinese food but this place does not disappoint. Everything was flavorfully well-balanced—no overpowering tastes. The stewed ox tail had a nice sweet and tangy flavor to it and the oxtail itself was “fall off the bone” tender—a family favorite. The black pepper stir fried sole fish was a little oily but definitely a good choice. The honey ginger wings were mildly sweet, couldn’t really taste the ginger and I wish it was crispier but still not bad. Servers have good energy/attitude. Will be back to try more!

Originally decided to try this place because of the very clearly marked allergen menu. But once we were seated and met our server, Mary, it became an absolute experience. Mary is a gem, and walked us through the menu, shared some favorites and suggestions, and was just all about keeping it real. And it made the entire night perfect, because the food was just as good as she told us it would be. I would absolutely come here again, and try so much more than I normally would; because Mary knows what’s good and she’s right. Family style dishes make it easy to share, order some things to try, and have plenty left to take home. Everything was fast, fresh, and so so good.

This is hands down my favorite Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles — no question about it. The owner is incredibly personable, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about what they do. Every time I visit, I’m welcomed with genuine warmth. The staff are always friendly, attentive, and make you feel right at home. The prices are very reasonable, the portions are generous, and most importantly, the food is absolutely delicious every single time. Whenever I’m in Los Angeles, this is a must-visit spot for me. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for great Chinese food!

The food is Halal and the portions they gave is good enough for sharing as well. The atmosphere was very welcoming and friendly. The taste is great we enjoyed it very much.
