The staff were so rude. Even though I had been a long time customer, I was treated poorly by the staff. I won’t come back to this restaurant for good.
I was disappointed with the food at this particular location. Despite having had a positive experience at the Van Nuys branch, my recent visit fell short of expectations. While the service was efficient and friendly, the quality of the food did not meet the standards set by the other location. We ordered the 3-meat BBQ option and a BBQ pork wonton noodle soup, however, the soup base seemed to be fish-based, which was not to our liking. Furthermore, the BBQ meats were served cold, lacked flavor, and the accompanying rice was lukewarm. Regrettably, I do not anticipate returning to this specific location in the future.
This is the best barbecue restaurant of Sam woo branch in SGV area (the one in Rosemead city on same street Valley is not good even though facility looks more modern). I always order their roast duck noodle soup. They also have good fried rice. Also lobster with crispy noodles. Good price too ($27 for a lobster probably of one lb or more. Very tasty! Best at this place only (Alhambra city on Valley near 6th st). However, some days they might not have lobsters available.
We are not from around here but my father and I will make an effort to come to this Sam Woo BBQ restaurant once a month. If you come before 11:30am, they have great deals on early luncheon menu. Highly recommend this establishment because the food is so inexpensive and delicious! Fact is, it's much cheaper than going to MacDs!
I ordered the roast duck over rice and my girlfriend had the wonton noodle soup with roast duck. This place is CASH ONLY, but outside from that the portions were generous and the food was quite good, especially for the price. I spent maybe $35 here for the TWO of us after tip. Don't expect good service or anything. Had to ask for waters, never refilled or checked in, but you can't expect too much at this $.
Going for breakfast and found Special items for 6.99 between 9 am and 11:30 am. Please see the menu. Great portion.
