NextDoor went kinda crazy over this place so we were intrigued. We walked by and the prices scared us off the first time. Then we decided to go ahead and try it since their prices were only a buck or two more than the place across the street we like.Serious disappointment. The Shanghai dumplings were bland. I commented to my wife they tasted like the frozen ones from Costco. She said Costco's were better. She was right.The lettuce wraps were ok but again kind of tasteless. Our to-go sauce container was tiny and could have used a little of the kick that three ingredient sauce the big chain place has. May as well just use soy sauce...which we did.Lastly, the special filet mignon French style must mean it was from a horse. Tougher than any filet meat I've ever had. I will say the sauce was excellent.Oh; and I have to add this - any Chinese place that charges for steamed rice loses a star.
I have been here TWICE on different occasions, and our service has been horrible.The first time I came here was on a date with my husband. It was quite busy that evening, and I remember being impressed by the restaurant's layout and the aroma it carried. The manager at the time sat us down and said someone would be with us shortly. During our 15 minutes waiting frame, the servers continued to seat others, take orders, and take food out. No one EVER approached us until we finally called someone over. We finally were able place our food order. However, during our wait, new customers arrived(Asians). Orders of the other individuals were taken after us, and all their orders were coming out first!? Once we saw other customers were getting their food before us, we did get impatient. Our waiting time had now been 50 minutes!! We never received our food. Hungry and agitated we got up and left.Now the second time, my husband convinced me to try the restaurant again, and I agreed. This time we arrived precisely at 11:00 am. The restaurant had just opened, and we were the first and only ones! The server was a little rude but took our orders, and that was that. Shortly after, two Asian ladies with a toddler arrive, and the server takes their order. Suddenly, it is 11:25, and those Asian ladies have their entire order while my husband, son, and I are still waiting for our meal. My son received his meal shortly after, 10 minutes later, my husband and until 11:45 am, I received mine. You best believe I was agitated again. I confronted the server because, honestly, it makes no sense in this case. The server saw us sitting there and the fact he never questioned the kitchen about our order demonstrated he had no concern.Therefore, based on both our experiences, I conclude there is a racial preference for who they serve their food first. Min's Bristo lacks kitchen/order organization skills. As well as customer service. I do not believe service is a matter of concern to them. I will never come back here again, nor will I ever recommend this place. You are better off with Panda Express.
I've been searching for a good Chinese restaurant with food made like I used to have back East where I'm from -- and I found it! I had Beef Chow Fun (flat noodles) and there was enough for 2 more meals. For the amount of food you get, the prices are very reasonable. The owner does the cooking, and after you've eaten a bit, he comes to your table to make sure everything is exactly what you wanted. A special treat was the Thai Iced Tea. Dark and light peach colored, it could even be used as a dessert. And there were bottles of hand sanitizers on each table.
Delicious food and great ambiance
Food is great and service was excellent. Prices are on the higher side and the dishes don't include rice, must be ordered separately.
It was my first time there, we ordered appetizers and it was delicious, the main courses were amazing. Friendly staff and will return again.
I really wanted to love this place unfortunately I didn’t. The food had no taste to it and the person who waited on us was very rude. Honestly I’m doing them a huge favor by giving them two stars.
Ordered the Dry Chicken Hotpot, Seaweed Fried Fish, and the Singaporean Noodles. Everything tasted great, and glad to see an authentic Chinese restaurant in the area. Probably the only complaint is to ask for less salt.
Oh yeah. I'm definitely coming back.The Raspberry Mocha was so amazing. Exactly to my taste without compromising the drink itself, considering I got extra sweet.I also got a Muffia Club muffin and I can taste the quality! It's delicious!! That muffin was so fresh and warm and everything in between was so well portioned.
This restaurant is probably the best Chinese restaurant that I've been to in Anaheim Hills and Yorba Linda. The only other restaurant that comes close is Mix Gourmet (also in Yorba Linda). The food here is very fresh and authentic and the customer service is exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant!!!
