Miki Chan's Okazu Ya - Montebello

Wow, this place is quite impressive! The portion sizes are generous—two or three people can easily share one combo. The grilled chicken and short ribs are definitely the highlights. The fried rice seems to be a staple here as well. The chow mein includes meat, but it has a unique flavor, possibly due to the use of fish oil in the preparation, so if you’re sensitive to that, you may want to pass on it. The restaurant is clean and pleasant for its type. Don’t expect a fancy place like Panda Inn or PF Chang's, but the food is really good. The staff is very friendly and sweet. I'll definitely stop by again next time I'm in the area.

Great prices and amazing value! I usually go for the three-item combo, which includes rice, tsukemono (a pickled cabbage salad), and macaroni salad. The three main items are chicken, delicious green beans with zucchini, and chow mein noodles, all for around $7! It’s the perfect portion for my son and me to share. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they have a lot of regular customers. It’s definitely a favorite spot for the local community, especially the older folks. I highly recommend this place if you want to leave feeling full!

I ordered the fried rice and chow mein combo with red pork and orange chicken. The fried rice and chicken were decent, but nothing particularly special, though they were tasty. Next time, I think I’ll just go for all chow mein. The mac salad was pretty basic, but still delicious. The beef ribs were fantastic—perfectly charred, full of flavor, and with just the right amount of fatty bits. They really pack the takeout boxes, which is impressive. This place is like Panda Express, but ten times better. Plus, the cashier had great energy!

Excellent service! The food is delicious, and the portions are generous. This restaurant has been a neighborhood staple for many years and has built up a large and loyal customer base. We keep coming back for more. They used to offer indoor seating, but that’s no longer available due to COVID-19.

Forget Panda Express—this place is far superior! For just $8, you get two entrees along with chow mein and fried rice. The food tastes fantastic, and they give you generous portions. They don’t skimp when serving—huge scoops of food fill the box to the brim, so much so that it barely closes! The staff is friendly, and I will definitely be coming back soon.
