If it weren’t so far from my place, I would honestly come here every week! I was so surprised to find such delicious Chinese food in Irvine.
We ordered steamed fish, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, dry pot cauliflower, and tomato scrambled eggs — every single dish was flavorful and perfectly cooked. Everything paired so well with rice, and we couldn’t stop eating.
For three people, it was around $100 and we left feeling very satisfied. Great portion sizes, authentic taste, and excellent value for the price. Highly recommend if you’re craving comforting, home-style Chinese food in Irvine!

Not sure if the management changed. The menu didn’t have the items in the reviews online. There were no noodles, no desserts, etc. What we had was good, but the prices were pretty high.

We visited this place for a weekday lunch and we were disappointed. First of all the price for each dish is pretty expensive: about 20 dollars for a dish. The amount does not match the price. we thought the rice would be free or an extra couple dollars but nope, the only way to get rice is ordering that rice dish with few corn in which is 3.5 and it was so little amount of rice. The food was pretty authentic, well with a good amount of oil and salt. The best part is the beef in the rice noodles. Two of us ordered 3 dishes plus rice and it was 60+ before tips and we were not even full. We poured our own water, napkins and chopsticks are already in the table drawer. The waiters served our food from five steps away and cleaned our table in a hurry right after we finished. I was hoping it could be an authentic sit down Chinese restaurant but it seems like just another fast food style but expensive place.

Love Master Hu! Their stir-fried pork intestines are chewy and packed with savory spice. The stir-fried cabbage is crisp, light, and garlicky. Cilantro beef is tender with a fresh, spicy kick.

Ordered takeout via Fantuan, and overall, it was quite disappointing.
1. Stir-fried pork – The meat was tough and dry, resembling pre-made food rather than freshly cooked stir-fry.
2. Braised beef and beef offal – The flavor was mediocre, nothing special about the broth, and the ingredients didn’t seem particularly high-quality.
3. Century egg with mashed eggplant – The portion was shockingly small, with just one century egg and a tiny amount of eggplant and green pepper.
Overall, the dishes were overly greasy, the prices were unreasonably high for the portion sizes, and the quality did not justify the cost. Would not recommend.

The food is good just wish the dish has a bit big proportion. The meat is just not much.
