Huiwei Kitchen - Irvine

I was feeling under the weather and craving Asian style hot soup. Ended up stumbling upon hui wei kitchen on Grubhub. Called in and ordered the Pork Belly Chicken Soup (with Rice or Noodle) $16 for pick up. It was flavorful and comforting, 100% what I was looking for! It came with a generous portion and I was able to get 2 meals out of the soup. However, their official online menu wasn't too helpful. The listed categories and items were inconsistent, some had both Chinese and English descriptions but some only had Chinese. There are a lot of items on their website that are missing from Grubhub, but I found that their Grubhub menu easier to understand. For some reason, I also couldn't find the dish I ordered on their official website menu ? ? it was really confusing. The flavors were authentic to me, will be back to try more items!

Delicious, reasonable price, especially delicious! The location is kinda unexpected lol but will visit again!

1) Popcorn was ok, could be better. A third of the order was garlic. Geez 2 The Spicy crayfish could use more sugar and less salt, way too salty.

This is one of many places inside a big office park, but you can't miss it with the amount of stickers on the door. We got two bento boxes that were filled nicely and they had a deal for free soft drinks when we went. The vibe is very homey and though they aren't 100% efficient, you can tell that the owners really care about the establishment. However, I would say 4 stars because the cuts of meat were kind of fatty and tough and a lot of the vegetarian bento was just rice rather than the tofu. However, I would still come back if I needed a quick meal in the area!

I'm always on the hunt for a good pork chop rice, with pickled mustard greens and other sides (what can I say), and I have finally found a decent place in Irvine! This is tucked away in a corporate plaza (it took us a solid 5-10 minutes to find) and is like going on a little treasure hunt, but the treasure is so worth. The pork chops are sliced thin enough that each piece can go in one bite, but thick enough that it is substantial. And so crisp and flavorful! I can't wait to come back already.
