Paula C. "How can you not be happy eating at a place called Happy Bao's! Went there on Friday to start our date night. We ordered the combo Bao so I could try the vegetarian, Bao. I found it a bit plain, and think if I added soy sauce or chili sauce, I would have enjoyed it more. The combo also came with pork and chicken with a total of 6 Bao's. We ended up taking two Boa's home. For my main meal, I had veggie noodles. I added two chili sauces to it. I felt with it being veggie they missed the mark on not adding broccoli or thicker slices of carrots. I ate half and took the rest home and added broccoli and carrots to it the next day and voila it was perfect. The staff was fantastic, especially since it was dinnertime. The restaurant was packed so we ended up eating out in the food court. It was a better experience I think than eating inside as it was quiet and not crowded."

James Y. "Came by here from a recommendation and was not disappointed.Their claypot dishes are indeed delicious. I tried their Pork Ribs Claypot Rice and Shiitake Chicken Claypot Rice. Although both were delicious, I enjoyed the Shiitake Chicken more (lots of "bones" in them ribs). The chicken was soft and meaty, the overall flavors in the dish was well-balanced, and I didn't feel like there was too much or too little quantity of food.The service was great overall with the staff being very friendly and the food coming on in reasonable time. The restaurant itself doesn't look very different from the business that used to do be here, which is not a bad thing--just an observation.Will be coming back to try them again!"

Ren N. "Wow, this has to be one of the best authentic spicy Chinese food I've ever had. I usually don't tolerate spicy well, this place however can make dishes that ranges from none to a lot. They're accommodating. Service is excellent. Lots of things to choose from on the menu, and the menu have pictures in case youre confused!We tried the fried spicy fish, eggplant with millenial egg, the traditional ma po tofu, and snow pea leaves with garlic (not on the menu but most places have it if you ask). Our fish dish came out super salty, it's kinda like a salt and pepper kinda turn out, so we asked if it could be redone and the owner took care of it for us at no additional cost. Large tables available for large parties otherwise most seatings are for 4~6, booths available."

You can't go wrong with their Ramen or Impossible Tacos. We didn't try the other items but these two were huge wins. Loved the non vegan menu as well, Ramen, crispy chicken was amazing! The service and staff were great and attentive. They have an outside patio so if the sun isn't too hot it's a great place to dine."

Not super amazing but for $11 it's hard to beat! Tonkatsu broth was good and not too heavy like I've had at other places.Husband got the combo which comes with ramen and an additional entree for $15.

I've never tried the food here before, but wanted to lower my salt intake, so I had them make both dishes light on sodium. Man, they knocked it out of the park!!! They made both dishes exactly how I wanted! Low sodium delight! The Pad Thai could've used a little more flavor in terms of lemon and peanuts, but overall, it was tasty.I was in a hurry, so only did takeout, but service was great! Cashier was friendly and very helpful!!Restaurant is tiny and definitely not fancy, but they sure know how to cook! And that's what'll keep me coming back!!! Yaassssssss!!!"

However, the sauce was tad greasy. We also had the grilled pork spring rolls. It only had rice noodles and lettuce with lots of grilled pork. Simple yet delicious. We will return to try more items.

PK Shabu & Grill

PK Shabu & Grill

★★★★☆ 4.1 (211) • $$$

Lam B. "PK Shabu and Grill is a great AYCE option for hot pot. I never enjoyed their sushi rolls so I'm not surprised they ended up sticking to hand rolls instead. There was a waitlist for dinner but the line went quickly. We chose our broths and meats before piling our plates with items from the cold bar. We were consistently checked on but the meat refills took a while. *Shoyu: the broth was mild. While shoyu usually is sweet and salty, this broth contributed little flavor to my additions. *Beef Belly: came with a generous strip of fat. Each piece was sliced thinly and cooked easily. Tasty high quality beef. *Pork Belly: similarly paper thin. Not as fatty as the beef but still absorbed sauces well. The cold bar had a plethora of vegetables, carbs and seafood. I was impressed by the inclusion of crawfish and crab although they weren't the freshest. There were even beef ribs but since my broth was so bland, it was hard to season the tougher hunk of meat. The sauce bar was a bit limited, using a commercial sauce as a base and patrons can add spices and seasonings themselves. I would have preferred house made sauces rather than building from soy sauce. PK offered a huge variety of options for hot pot but I hope to see more robust flavors for their broths and sauces. The meats were tasty but everything would have benefited from seasoning."

I didn't enjoy having to pick off the shell & removing the poopy shrimp spine, but the flavor was better than I expected! Surprisingly, they have a lot of snail dishes! I'm pretty sure it's their specialty, but alas, u won't find any snails in my body! ***Gag face*** U won't find me hurrying to get back here, but I'd definitely come back to try a non-snail viet dish from them!!"

Got it to go and it was packed with care to prevent leaks, and with the noodles in a different container so they would get soggy. The soup came with lots of protein and was perfectly spicy. The noodles were chewy with the perfect amount of bounce. Prices are great and portions are big!"

A staff member was at the door and greeted me. He also blocked the entry. I asked if they were open for lunch. I thought they were already open for business. He told me they would be open on Friday. Well drat! It's hard when you have your mouth ready for Vietnamese food. We'll try on another day. They do get 5 stars for being friendly and nice. I will give an update once we visit."

It's your standard Chinese restaurant package dumplings but the sauce they tossed it in was pretty good. Not too spicy. The singapore rice noodles were really good. First bite you can taste the curry and savory flavor. I asked for extra spicy and they put some cayenne powder in it so it was nice and spicy. Also added chili oil. Their Chilli oil was very fragrant. My colleague got the Mongolian beef. It was good and well cooked with good flavor. Prices were reasonable and decent quantity."

I stopped in at Asian Cafe Express with a group of Yelp friends to celebrate Lunar New Year. The menu here is enormous. There are so many dishes to choose from. I was happy that they have pictures on the wall of their dishes because I was so indecisive about what to order. What I enjoy about this place is the bargain prices and the big portions. Not to mention the food is pretty good!Asian Cafe Express serves up Chinese comfort food along with favorites from Southeast Asia and Hong Kong. They have been a staple here in the Valley for some time and are located by H Mart in Mesa. I ordered the Beef Stew Chow Mein and a noodle soup for my entree. But we ended up doing a lot of sharing so we could each try something different. Overall, Asian Cafe Express ended up being a great recommendation and a nice time with friends. Great service too!"

I got the orange tofu to go with a side of vegetables. It was ready fast. I think only 1-2 people working and they don't have a bell to ring to let them know customers are waiting for them so it took a little while for them to realize I was waiting but not too long! It was expensive but the portion size was pretty large! I got the sauce on the side which I'm glad I did because they gave me a ton and I didn't need that much, I don't like when there's too much sauce on stuff. It said it was spicy but I didn't think it was spicy at all!"

Henry D. "When you walk in they have a huge menu board (picture included) with the detailed of every dish. And it's right at eye level no breaking your neck trying to figure out what you want. Plus, at the counter when you order, there is also the traditional board up high to break your neck without the detailed description. Pretty cool. Music wasn't too loud and the place looks clean. I noticed employees kept coming out wiping tables. The guy behind counter was inviting, warm and helpful to my experience. He even explained the dish I had questions about. I had the spicy Korean noodles and was a little sweater than spicy. Still good and I did enjoy my meal. I would suggest if your trying to decide between regular bowl or large. Go large. Big difference in serving and large is about $1 to $1.50 more. Bathrooms were clean except for a small trash can needling service."

Medium Spice on both dishes. Service was friendly and quick, prices and portions were reasonable, atmosphere is comfortable but far from fancy. That said, it was a positive overall experience and we will likely be back soon! It's worth mentioning that I've also ordered delivery from Chada before and also recommend it for to-go orders!"

Had to keep asking them to refill our drinks and asked for containers to take food home. The other times have been an incredible difference, service was great. Ok, there is the run down on the food:1. Beef with green onion dumplings - perfect texture of dumping skin and well flavored beef2. Pan-fried beef with green onions Pan fried dumplings - perfect texture of dumping skin and well flavored beef3. Scallion pancake was perfect flakiness and layers with the onion greens4. Pan-fried pork buns was good, but the buns were just a tad too thick5. Golden fried bun looks a little over fried but it was very tasty6. Xiao long bao - these were good, but not the best I have had.7. Popcorn chicken - MORE PLEASE, these seasoned just perfectly and crispy8. Taiwanese three cup chicken - WOW, it was super good, flavorful9. Sweet and sour baby back ribs - these were served with love, flavor, and perfectThere are still MORE things I would love to try on their menu! I will be coming back soon!"

No leaks, so well presented like in restaurant and looked fantastic. I couldn't wait to indulge and the first bite, oh so yummm. The flavors, the ramen, shrimp, soy beans, everything blended well and tasted amazing. I just kept covering my face with the food. It was one of the best ramen I have had in recent times.

The garlic spare ribs were little on the dryer side but had lot of flavor. The fried rice and Dan Dan noodles were as expected. They were serving Peking duck at the next table; which looked very good so made a mental note to order next time. Enjoy! Highly recommend!!"
