Good Shine Kitchen Chinese Food Monterey Park Reviews from The Last Year
The low down: Bad service, good food.
Quality varies. Quantity meh. Intro: Good Shine has been a staple of Monterey Park aka "Little Taipei" for 4+ decades. The restaurant has endured and changed hands multiple times but the flavor hasn't changed much. Most likely the original owner had good notes. What happened: Having missed this restaurant since pre-pandemic, I was delighted to see the restaurant still operating. I went to the restaurant hoping to reminisce the good flavor. I ordered 3 dishes (pork fried rice to test the cook's technique, stir fried pork stomach to see if the cook had the right style of knife technique for the ingredients, and finally thick bonito soup with squid. The pork fried rice was spot on with great wok chi (a flavor and aroma created when oil is cooked at extreme high temperature to stir fry ingredients). The rice was chewy and not jasmine rice which is the correct Taiwanese style. The stir fried pork stomach used sesame oil and ginger which was great but the owner used precut canned bamboo shoots instead of hand cut, and the stomach pieces were cut too thick but the flavor was overall satisfying when eaten with rice. The thick starchy bonito soup with squid smelled and tested correct however was missing cilantro and basil on top and the squid was post processed with fish paste and then cut into small uneven pieces. I was thinking this is not bad except for the squid soup and reflected to the female owner that the squid pieces were on the scarce side. She strongly defended her dish saying all squid pieces are of equal amount, and she didn't cheat me. Thinking she didn't really see the amount, I wanted show my side of the argument so I took out all the pieces of available squid and put them in a small rice bowl in order to show her it really wasn't a lot. She proceeded to lecture me about the hardship of keeping business afloat and how she is there to make money not charity. Without asking, took my bowl from my table proceeded to show other tables the amount asking them to pass judgement on whether that was fair, before lecturing me again about price vs quantity. Honestly, a sorry but we'll try harder next time or well I'm sorry that's how we present the soup in this restaurant would have suffice. I didn't pay to have a lecture on restaurant economics for 15+ minutes. 5 stars for surviving pandemic, -1 star for wrong squid soup, -3 star for owner's response and attitude towards customer.
I've known about Good Shine Kitchen for many years, given
I've known about Good Shine Kitchen for many years, given that it is on my commute to work and I always see it. Unfortunately, it's only open a few days a week, and always in the evenings. I tend to prefer going out to lunch, but one time my wife and I had the opportunity to go out for dinner, so finally we went to Good Shine Kitchen. It's an extremely small hole in the wall restaurant. The server was nice to us, but it is a cash only establishment just so everyone is aware. I saw omelette rice on the menu and I instantly tunnel visioned on that as my dinner. My wife ordered oyster noodles and also a stinky tofu to go. The oyster noodles were slightly spicy but overall good. The omelette rice was solid. It had ketchup, which I expect from omelette rice. The rice was also ketchup rice. However the omelette was well done, and I may have preferred just slightly on the runny side. I think the rice itself could have used just a bit more seasoning. The serving portions are on the smaller side for an SGV restaurant, but that's ok. The food was great overall.
Our options into the evening were dwindling and we ended up
Our options into the evening were dwindling and we ended up trying this place out. The lady working was such a sweetheart. Super friendly & warm demeanour. Really enjoyed our noodle soup and vermicelli dish. Hit the spot, reminded me of stuff my mom used to make. Simple, flavorful & comforting. I'd recommend.
This place is a mom and pop shop, and the lady who serves
This place is a mom and pop shop, and the lady who serves the tables is very nice. When I was there she asked me what I want to order, and would recommend that she think I should get. She also will make sure that I didn't get too cold by closing the door as the afternoon/evening time got a little cold with the breeze with the door open. The food is like your typical taiwanese food - however the price per item was a bit steep for Taiwanese food. I am not sure if I should be surprised since there is inflation everywhere. The parking lot is shared with other businesses there and may be hard to find parking, but there is also street parking as well that is free. It is a good spot to grab some dine in taiwanese food and also comes with free hot tea or water. Would come back again since its locally in MPK and support small businesses, but probably not often considering its a bit pricy for its portion.
I hadn't visited this place forever.
Drove by one day and decided to get some dinner to go. Felt like the food was not as great as before. Some dishes were pretty bland. But the price was still reasonable. Owners were very friendly and nice.
Gave them another chance recently.
Maybe it was bad luck several years ago, but I can eat here again. I really liked the chicken with sesame sake soup. I also had the shrimp bi-hun fried noodle (rice vermicelli)
Simple, good home cook food! The oyster pancake had the
Simple, good home cook food! The oyster pancake had the crispy edge I personally enjoy, and the flavors for both the pancake and the sha cha beef were just right. Extremely kind service, and a cozy small hole in the wall space-- can't go wrong with coming here and enjoying some good food both by yourself and with friends :)
Can't believe that I never tried this small restaurant in
Can't believe that I never tried this small restaurant in the past 10 years I have been working in Monterey Park! They just open from 6 pm to 11 pm from Wednesday to Saturday, that's why many people miss their opening hours. A friend of mine brought me here last week, then I went 2 more times in a week and brought my friends too. It's a new discovery for us! The first time I went because I was craving for stinky tofu. Their deep fried fermented tofu was stinky but not so serious. I believe everyone can stand for it. :) Xiaolong Boa was juicy! They were steamed after you ordered. Be cautious it's really hot! I personally don't eat intestines but my friends said it's clean and yummy. The pork liver fried rice was a surprise! Chinese says "wok qi" (the food has special favors if it's stir fried by high heat) and this fried rice has it! Ladies eat less rice or carb nowadays, but all of us kept refilling it. Compared to this fried rice, the noodle soup and 3 favor stewed chicken were just so so. It's a really small restaurant and capacity is only 25 people. They also have many to-go orders, so be prepared to wait a little bit. But the serving is good. They are very friendly people. There's laundry next door and parkings are limited. Carpool if you can. And CASH ONLY!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
