PanHolic Brea

A decent Chinese restaurant. It's more like a Korean-Chinese restaurant. You can get jjajangmyun or jjamppong, which you can only get from a Korean-Chinese restaurant. Their food is okay.

A Chinese Korean fusion spot for Jjampong and Jjangmyun. A small, clean restaurant that recently opened. I visited during lunch and got my childhood soul food - jjangmyun. I got the gan-jjangmyun, and it came with (many) huge chunks of raw, uncooked onions in the sauce, which I found difficult to eat.

Mapo tofu was pretty good, but the bowl of rice that came with it was completely dry.

The restaurant is pretty clean, and the service was attentive. It would be an ok choice for a quick bite.

Yum Korean food! My first time dining here and we just walked in by fluke to realize this gem of a place in Brea. Do try 👍🏽

Great tasting Chinese food. We ordered combo fried rice. It contained pork, chicken and beef. You could taste the fire in each bite of hot chewy rice and meats. Jajangmyun noodle was hot. Ordinarily it's lukewarm. I recommend it.

Our family loves the food and staff here. They are always consistent with their service, and I'm glad they are nearby in Brea.
Panholic is known for their jjajangmyun and jjambbong, so definitely try those. It's always good at this location. Please also be understanding to the lady in the front area. She's always working so hard, and she deserves our support.

Jjangmyeon (2/5): unimpressed and it’s only a step above the stuff you get in the instant noodle packs. Not sure how they can charge $12 for a bowl of noodles with less than an ounce of meat in it when pho is around $15… Can’t believe the star dish of the restaurant was so underwhelming.

Sweet & Sour Pork “ttangsyuk”: (1.5/5) This tasted alright when it immediately came out. But as I started eating more and more of it I realized how flavorless the sauce was and how poorly trimmed the pork was. Almost every piece had a grisly peace of fat,tendon,ligament that was unpleasant to chew through and I feel like the fryer they are using is underpowered or something because only the exterior was crispy while the interior wasn’t cooked all the way through.

Service: nonexistent/5

The lady working here looks like she is on her last leg and every time we asked her for something that she seemingly forgot, it felt like we were asking her to do a monumental favor because she looked sleepy/sick. It’s not the best representation of a restaurant when their only front of house worker looks like they’re about to faint at any given moment.

I’m not sure how a Korean/chinese fusion restaurant is going to do in Brea especially when the food is trash.

최악의 맛….오픈때와 아예 다른 맛… 탕수육은 너무 셔서 소스 손도 못 대고 단무지도 식초맛만 가득.
신 음식 좋아하는데도 못먹을 정도. 결국 단무지에 물부어서 두번 먹다가 포기. 점심굶고 저녁에 갔는데도 네다섯 젓가락 먹고 다 남기고 나옴. 짜장면 무슨 맛인지 모르겠고 옆테이블도 짬뽕이 짜다 하고. 왜 이렇게 맛이 변한건지 참…배가 너무고픈 상태였는데 아예 다 남기고 나왔음…식당 근처살때 오픈하고 4번 정도 갔었는데 오랜만에 갔다가 봉변당함.

서비스 제로
절대 짬뽕도 맛없고
쟁반짜장도 나오는 양은 접시 짜장 정도이고
짬뽕도 짜장도 국적불명의 요상한 맛으로
가격도 불만
이런 식당은 빨리 문닫았으면 함.

I love White broth Jjamppong. This place is the best so far. The portion was huge but I finished every drop of the soup.What a satisfying meal it was!

Jjampong was delicious. Jjajangmyeon was good but it’s too bad they don’t serve the beef version right now. That was better than the pork version.

Came here for dinner and had the Ganjjajang and Kkanpunggi. Both were absolutely delicious. The ladies working in the front couldn't be nicer. Look forward to coming here again.
