Trieu Chau Restaurant | Chinese • Cambodian

A hidden gem in City Heights, run by a kind and hardworking family. It's an unassuming hole-in-the-wall that serves family style Chinese-Cambodian cuisine. Great bang for the buck with big portions, especially in this economy!! The salt and pepper series (chicken, tofu, calamari, and shrimp) are a big to-go hit at parties, but taste best freshly cooked for a dine-in meal. Most of their dishes are really good to solid. Definitely worth a try if you've never been. You may find yourself going back...again...and again...and again. Take pride in knowing you're supporting a local mom and pop shop that's been around for decades!

Oh my goodness… if you love finding hidden gem/ mom and pop own or privately owned restaurant that are so good, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE! I came here with some friends after a retirement ceremony down town and we tried everything we wanted and it was amazing!! First we got the Chinese donuts with a side of warm condensed milk, at least I think that’s what it was. The donuts were so delicate but had an amazing crunch and the side dip of condensed milk was just the cherry on top! Just a nice sweet starter. Then we got sat and pepper calamari and salt, salt and pepper shrimp and egg rolls as appetizers (I know it sounds like a lot but I was with a few people) the salt and pepper seasoning on these was absolutely amazing! The peppers were so pronounced but not in an overwhelming way and it complimented the salt on both the calamari and shrimp! It was really such a beautiful stunning and tasty appetizer! We were trying not to take to many at once! The egg rolls were also delicious, nice fresh flavors inside them and just really delicate! My friends ordered the pad Thai which was pretty good. My other fried ordered orange chicken a it was so fresh! It taste like they had just made the sauce five minutes ago from actual oranges! It was so pure! And I got the bone beef stew with rice noodles and oh my goodness it was so wonderful! If you like pho you will enjoy this soup! It is not pho but PLEASE, don’t limit yourself to just pho because there are so many more soups out there! It was so light and fresh and the meat was so tender in it! The staff was so nice and tentative to us! They were also very welcoming! Ugh I want to go back already!! Update: came here after so long and oh my gosh it's just as food!! We order2d Lemon Grass Chicken, Salt and Pepper Popcorn Chicken and Chinese Broccoli. The Lemon Grass Chicken was so good lots of veggies and sauce. The Salt and Pepper Popcorn Chicken was lightly fries and had great flavor. The Chinese Broccoli was served in a home made garlic oysters sauce and it was so comforting! I also ordered the chiesw donuts with sweetened condensed milk and a Thai ice tea that was made on the spot and taste so fresh and authentic. I love this place!

Great soups! Fair portions and prices. Favorites are duck egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side; and the combo egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side. The taste of the broth is rich and exceptional. The duck isn't overly fatty or mostly bones as is the case in other duck soup restaurants. This is an example of a mom & pop restaurant that takes pride in their food and wants to serve the best to their customers. The owner is super friendly and makes you feel like a guest at her home.
