Ma's House

Really good food. The lunch options are cheap and there is a lot.

Great service, food came out super quick, giant portions (lunch special tofu is HUGE, I'm going to love the leftovers) Don't skip the hot tea! Their jasmine tea is delightful.

6/11/24: We had the chicken XLB, curry chicken, hot tea, and matcha boba. Everything was delicious and had big portions sizes which is perfect to share. Definitely plan to go back again.

Excellent flavor, big portions. Great prices for the amount of food! Will definitely come back!

We tried this new restaurant and it did not disappoint. The Chinese food here is really good and I’m glad it’s in Poway. We will definitely come back for more.

I loved this place, and the food was really good. No disappointment. On top of that, the food is Halal! What! That was like the cherry on the top. Like everyone else said, it is big portion plates so be mindful when you order something. It is easy to share. I will definitely come back again.

Great service here! A group of us was in for dinner on a week night to celebrate a birthday. The waiter heard and brought out a slice of cake for us! It is not something they usually do, especially Chinese restaurants. The staff was really nice and friendly. Made all the difference between a good dining experience and a great one. We ordered a few dishes for dinner and had it family style. We like all the dishes we ordered. They were able to make modifications to the dishes. For example we asked for chicken chow fun instead of the usual beef chow fun. No problem! There are a lot of vegetarian options. It was one of the reasons why we picked this restaurant. One person in our party was a vegetarian, another was gluten free, another doesn't eat beef... there was something for everyone!

The food is delicious and the service was great. They give big portions here unlike most places nowadays. This is my new go to spot for Chinese food. Went back and everything was delicious.

Anaheim branch had a notice saying that a new branch is opened in Poway. So we have tried. The restaurant is new and has a nice vibe, staff were very friendly. We tried our classics kung pu chicken, orange beef, homemade chow mein, egg fried rice. Everything was freshly made and delicious! Portions were big. Now we do not have to go to Anaheim :)

Five star Chinese food, super high quality. We ate many, many dishes. Highlights include beef dough sliced chow mein and house special chicken. Also, great were the tofuu in brown sauce, orange chicken, green beans, and egg rolls. Xiao long bao were very good, homemade dough, well flavored meat. My favorite was the three flavors sizzling rice soup. It even sizzled when the rice was addes. Perfect. Halal menu with no pork. Nice, friendly staff. clean. Nice decor. We will definitely be back. Soon.

Delicious authentic fresh cooked Chinese food. Love how the taste is perfect. Not too salty or spicy. Perfect balance of flavors. I would definitely come back.

Always a good place to grab lunch or dinner. The cumin lamb and orange chicken are both great. I recently found their lunch special which is a pretty good deal (main, soup, egg roll) for $13. Sad they got rid of the house salad for $1. The portions are pretty generous. I'd get one protein and one veggies to share for 2-3 people.

Was looking for something different for dinner than our normal fare in Ramona. Found Ma's in Poway online and gave it a try. We were blown away with the quality of the food. Our favorite halal Chinese restaurant is Nomad in Long Beach but this place is equal to that. Only one server but he did a great job taking care of everyone. I judge every Chinese restaurant I try but the hot and sour soup and it was super tasty and just right on the hot level. We will certainly make this place a regular spot.

Mā’s other location. A+ can’t go wrong with any item on their menu. Mongolian and Green Onion beef is #1 and my fav followed by their green onion parathas and bread!

Good foods and great service! The receptionist and the waiters here are full of enthusiasm! They are not only patience and friendly, but also full of joy and passion! They show real interest to each customer and make me really enjoy the experience dining in this restaurant! Very impressed!

Everything was delicious! They recommended crispy for the sweet and sour chicken and it was perfect!

I accidently ordered from the wrong location for pickup and was ready to pay a second time just get the food but they insisted I did not pay again and prepared the food I ordered anyway. Absolutely lovely people, it was very kind of them. As for the food itself, it was great with generous proportions to boot.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ma’s house in Poway, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best in the area. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. The food was outstanding. Every dish we ordered was full of flavor.

We got 2 lunch specials. One non spicy orange chicken and the other chicken cashew. The soup was a creamy corn soup which was actually like egg drop soup with corn and chicken bits. We got a veggie roll one each. They were both yummy. Our host, Myung, was very kind, friendly, and engaging. He made my experience great. The food came out and we got excited. We took some bites and were slightly disappointed. For me- the orange chicken was a little cold on the inside for some and others was scalding hot… the sauce was bland- like it was missing salt or something. For my friend- the chicken cashew also tasted bland- I didn’t enjoy it so I didn’t continue to share with her. I heard great things about this place from social media but I don’t think it lived up to the hype. Mediocre at best but I guess there’s a lot of other foods to try still. Overall- great location, very friendly staff, just not the most perfect food..

Pretty delicious Chinese food. Among them, sa cha lamb is very good. Spicy noodles soup, especially hand-made one, is 😋.

Little Kitchen took over Crazy Duck and has been opened for about a month. We came for lunch and got two lunch items that included rice, soup of the day and egg roll. The soup of the day was chicken cream corn. A bit salty but after adding red vinegar, it balanced out. -Eggplant w brown sauce w meat (you can also get without meat). This item was slightly salty from the brown sauce w minced meat. I loved that it had so much eggplant. -Honey walnut shrimp: Shrimp stayed crispy the entire time. I thought it was perfect size and crispy edges coated in the mayo sauce. My favorite dish. -Chicken xiao long bao (8): You can tell it’s made in house bc it’s all different shapes. The wrapper was thick for my liking and it barely squirt out broth but it was so damn juicy. The meat filling was a lot too. I got full after eating 5. -Beef stew noodle soup: Choice of regular or house made noodles. I chose house noodles. The shape was like udon but texture was dense and doughy. The broth had a lot of herbal spice and the beef was so tender. Overall, the portions for the lunch items were huge. I don’t think dumplings is their strong point. The beef stew was a huge bowl and best to feed 2-4 people. We will be coming back to try other dishes. This place has potential. Great food, lots of parking, excellent service.
