"First, a disclaimer: Please indulge my perhaps xenophobic condemnation, but I have learned not to trust the wait staff at typical Asian restaurants. Both a cultural chasm and a language divide separate American vegans from Asian wait staff. They do not understand that sea animals are not eaten by vegetarians. You often can find these animals listed right on the menus in the so-called vegetarian sections. I shudder to guess at the ingredients that are not listed. Asian restaurants are no more a vegan/vegetarian safe haven than compared to any other ethnic cuisine. But Nancy Chang's is different! They have a separate menu that is vegan, not just vegetarian. And both times I have eaten there, my waiters have spoken both fluent English and fluent Vegan. Steering clear from all the mock meats, which make a mockery of vegetarianism, I still had half of the vegan menu from which to choose, which was plenty. Plus they serve brown rice. While the vegan menu is standard Chinese-American fare with sugary sauces, within that genre the food is excellent. Both its interior and its outdoor patio are comfortable and spacious, and great places to meet your date. In fact, if you park in the small front lot, you will walk thru the bar area, which qualifies as a singles bar. Or use the rear entrance, which adjoins its very large rear parking lot. Both times that I ate here were after the Veg Food Fest held in Worcester. The Fest is a crowded and noisy zoo that is not conducive for enjoying the food. But at Nancy Chang, you will thoroughly enjoyed your meal."

"Hello Westside Google Family DANKE FOR THE GIVING ME OVER 10,000 HITS... ...start with my perception of 5 stars: 1 star needs immediate attention 2 stars under expectations 3 stars meets expectations 4 stars above expectations 5 stars exceptional Now with the way, let's go in! Today I am Rating Hop Li, at 11901 Santa Monica Blvd., which should not be confused with the other Hop Li on Pico Blvd. In fact, when ordering for pick-up they will always ask if you know my location? I have ordered the pick-up in the last 15 years and stood by his side during the ascent and descent. Let me explain, based on my last command. Once the restaurant was completely opened and the dining room was packed during dinner. Thanks to Covid, a recent water leak and the Health Departments B review, the things of this establishment have turned into a not so shiny gem. With Covid and the water leak in mind, the restaurant has turned into a 3rd of what it used to be, what its priorities to take over direct order and the major delivery services. The west side of the dining room catering and big party events is a black hole they don't use. While on the east side, although fixed by the water damage, is a storage space for pull-out boxes and stuff that the public eye should not look. If you eat, forget to have a waiter with a attention to detail. The same guy who does all the expulsions, coupled with the execution of the reception, will be your waiter, busboy, cashier and just about everything you can mention. In addition, the no thrill dining room does not have pictures on the wall, no plants or any other decoration, not to mention the music simply a dining room with tables and chairs. If you can come by, we can continue to the food sector. Generally, the food is GOOD, and there are some of my favorite dishes that I will mention at a moment. However, I noticed inconvenience in the recipes, after whom cooking in the night you order. Some of my favorite dishes are: ?Egg Drop Soup?XO Beans? Kung Pao Chicken? Honey Pepper Steak? Chicken vegetables? Seafood With Tofu Now with more than 20 years experience as a Food Beverage General Manager for many Fortune 500 companies I can say there are many reasons why Hop Li received a B degree on his latest health department inspection, some that may not be food related at all. Remember, the L.A.H.D. achieves on a point basis, and one or two 6 to 8 points injuries for non-food-related corrections can easily put your restaurant into another class very quickly. Let me quote a few examples: if the restaurant has a burned light bulb, the health department will take 2 points off from the perfect score of 100. ? Should an employee have an open drink, we say water in their workstation, this will cause the rest"
