So again this place is very small in Irvine area by UCI. They have good food and hence the 4 stars. Lunches are super light in regards to crowd. Their dinner times are very busy. They are known for Sichuan Food especially noodles. Also their food quantity and price does not match. Prices are high and quantity is small. Their customer service is decent but please be prepared that in some cases you might have to explain them using means of communication. They will serve food in a plastic container with plastic utensils assuming that there might be leftovers and you can directly take it home. They also have lunch buffet and I would not recommend ordering from that section as it didn't look fresh. We ordered spicy Eggplant, beef noodles and Sichuan Chicken bbq sticks. As I mentioned earlier food was decent. I mean you can certainly try it once.

On a weekday evening, it wasn't too crowded yet. Ordered the signature grilled fish, which was a large portion. Also had pork buns that tasted very much like the ones in China, which I really liked.

Ordered for pickup. Food took longer to be ready than indicated on the app. Pretty disappointed with the portions for the price they're charging. Chicken wing dry pot - supposedly this is $18 but I got it at a discounted price. I wouldn't pay $18 for the portion. There are 5 wings, cauliflower, broccoli, potatoes and peanuts. The wings are cooked perfectly and nicely marinated but the rest of the ingredients in this dish were extremely salty. Shredded pork with rice- they put this in one of those round containers. Again, not something that's worth the price. The portion is seemingly generous but the quality isn't that great. The pork had bits of fats that are hard and cannot even be chewed on. Cold potato- this is pretty good. The price was decent but the portion isn't. I guess you get what you pay for. The only thing that I'd get again here are the steamed buns. I forgot to take a picture of it but the 50 day aged beef buns were amazing. There is 6 in one order. The bun is soft and chewy and the filling is very juicy.

I tried their pork bun, and it was excellent. The filling is closer to that of an XLB. When I bit into one, juices overflowed. It's not the red BBQ pork kind, or the kind with pork and vegetables. One order comes with 6 small buns.

Ordered dry pot beef from this place, it costs $27. And the beef is super hard and hard to chew, not so much flavor either. I always have hard time to cook beef, easily over cooked like this. Kinda disappointed, not so much Chinese restaurants in Irvine are doing dry pot or grilled fish. Service is always meh, but if the food not good either, another Chinese restaurant will disappear in Irvine sadly.Truly hope one day Chinese restaurant will attract more non Chinese people to try our cuisine. However, based on bad service plus not so good good, this will never happen.

So disappointed. I ordered many times but the Frog pot is just potato dry pot this time........

They are the best. It was my first time trying to restaurant. Their food is delicious with affordable prices. I love their spiciness. Wow impressive. The place is clean.Service is excellent; fast and friendly.Parking is easy.

Service was great. Food was definitely unique. Came in for a quick dessert. They're open late.

I love BAO, very traditional Tianjin Baozi. Soya milk is good. The restaurant is clean,staff is nice.

It's a little too salty, and the spice is just right (runny nose, mouth on fire, but not dying). I've come here multiple times because i love the flavor. It's not busy when i've gone (usually weekend nights), so there's enough seats. You pay when you order at the counter. No one is flatout rude, but they may seem brusque, which i dont mind. I'm there for food, not a fancy experience lolParking might be a little difficult, but there's an underground structure and additional parking, so it's not bad.
