Really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Items are loaded with fresh large fresh produce with distinct sauces. shrimp resemble prawns, large and fresh. the house egg foo young is so big and distinct with sliced vegetables and their lamb dishes are filling but don't make you feel heavy. Extremely good, for the money undoubtedly the best.
I've never eaten at an Islamic Chinese restaurant. The restaurant seemed to draw a large Asian crowd, so I assumed it was going to be good, and it was. I ordered the spicy garlic chicken lunch special, which includes rice and sweet and sour soup. It was tasty and the portions were good. The service was quick and I never found myself waiting too long for anything. A great place for a work lunch.
My favorite Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood. Great place to dine in or take out. A plus is that they have a complimentary ice cream machine, so make sure you get a ice cream cone before you head out :) Some of my fav dishes are the eggplant with spicy garlic sauce, cumin lamb, beef broccoli and tbh everything on the menu is delicious. Must try the sesame bread with green onion too! There's never a long wait here. Very quick service. Delicious food! I highly recommend Ma's Restaurant :)
My go to place for awesome Chinese food. Service always great The green onion pie and sesame pie the best!!!!
This is a nice halal Chinese spot to come with a group as the portions are large and they are accommodating. It's located in a very busy plaza so if you come Friday-Sunday it can be a tad difficult to find parking. There is plenty of seating inside. I noticed that regardless of having a reservation you may need to wait 10-15 mins. The staff are always super nice and friendly. The food is overall good and they are fairly consistent. I love the green onion bread; it's a must have for me lol. All the other dishes were good/basic. The free soft serve is a cute/nice treat after the meal.
