Ma's House
Included In
A family lunch in Anaheim might make you think of those weird hotel restaurants where Snow White shows up for a photo after you start eating. The experience Ma’s House offers is, thankfully, a world away from those places. Come to this family-run Islamic Chinese banquet hall and restaurant in North Anaheim and you’ll find low-key gatherings of relatives, locals on midday break, and anyone else who was in the mood for big plates of homestyle Northern Chinese food that day. Ma’s all-Halal menu covers a lot of ground, with everything from kung pao chicken to dim sum, but we recommend focusing on the house specialty stir-fried short ribs, any of the cold appetizer dishes, and the crispy scallion bread.
