My favorite fast food chinese restaurant in Covina. They are cantonese owned and the quality of food here is amazing. Take it from a chinese person/ yelp elite haha.1 bowl with any side is $7.39. 1 single item combo is $8.29. 2 item combo is $9.29. The price is ridiculous for such massive portions. Give it try and you wont regret it.

First, given the price point and market segment, the food here is best-of-class. Five stars in those categories. Atmosphere and service are pretty middling, and I had a strange experience tonight when, after calling in a takeout order, someone walked in a few minutes before I arrived and straight up stole my food. They had to make an entire new order of five items. In the future I hope they store take out orders behind the counter instead of on it.Finally, Google lists this business as China Taste, but it is associated with Spices 3 across the street and may not be associated with that former name or owners. Not quite sure.

Hand-pulled noodles here are the sh*t. I didnt have time to take a picture of them right away so heres a picture after I inhaled them. Really great dim sum as well. Prices are very good for the area and all the food is high quality. The lady is so friendly and accommodating. I bring everyone who visits Oakland here. Cant recommend more highly.

Ive been going to Spices! 3 for almost a decade and was curious to see what theyd do with their original location after they moved across the street.Wow, what a treat!They reopened as a noodle focused place with an optimized menu filled with all the classics I knew and loved from Spices! 3, and a bunch of new things.The service remains excellent, the food unbelievably good and the prices excellent. I highly recommend their noodle special which is a great deal.You really cant go wrong with any of their dishes, dont be afraid to be adventurous and ALWAYS try something new here. I did last time, and I think I found a new favorite dish Ill be ordering for years to come.

This is my favorite place in the Bay! My boyfriend and I have literally gone to this restaurant 3 times this week. The service is wonderful and personalized. We’re greeted with a smile every time we walk in and the atmosphere is very inviting. The food delicious, the portions are generous and the price is right. Highly recommend for anyone in search of a new Chinese spot with yummy noodles and dim sum!

The noodles here is so fresh and delicious. It is very vegetarian friendly. My kids love their wontons there because its so fresh and delicious. The service is awesome and they have homemade peanuts as appetizer for free. Theyre running a special (4 bowl of noodles for $30) on their noodles. Did I mention, the noodles are hand pulled fresh noodles.

Im really sad. I ordered from Spices/China Taste through doordash. I was very excited because of the high ratings esp for noodles. I ordered basics because I had never eaten here before; an order of ShuiMai, Chow Noodles and General Tso Chicken. The noodles were awful. They were like boiled with no flavors, onions or anything. It tasted like the cooks forgot to make the dish. I was very disappointed. The chicken was awful too. No flavor to it and very mushy because of the breading. The ShuiMai was amazing. I spent $50 on this meal and only ate it so I wasnt wasting my money but I should have returned it. Also Im not normally a person that gets too hyped up about bad food enough to post it as a review.

Some of the best noodles in Oaklands Chinatown. Its connected to spices 3 across the street but much better in my opinion. The noodles have decent spice, at least if you ask in Chinese to make it spicy. The flavor of the noodle sauces are pretty good, though a little too sweet imho. The salt and pepper dishes are a little too soft imho too. But this place is on par with the other good noodle spots around there, and its actually pretty cheap too.

I make my orders through DoorDash. They do have delicious dishes, specially the noodles. However watch out for the pork siumai . One time my order was raw, and today it was undercooked, the meat is still red and mushy. Please be consistent on your quality because getting refund doesnt solve the problem. However I would give 5 stars on the hand pull noodles, love the texture and the favor. I will just stick with the noodles from now on.

It sucks that i have to write a bad review on an awesome place. The lady on the floor was rude as hell. She was making a lot of strange noises trying to make us leave. Everytime she came to the table, she would act like she didnt speak english. Then played a sound from here phone hella loud to scare us off. We ate a little and then we were ready to leave. She tried to accuse us of not paying the bill. Then she kept screaming tip tip tip! I told her that her attitude is the reason you wont get one.
