We came during weekends. No customers at the time we were there. Staff are friendly. The food was a little slow but that was fine as we were chatting away.

It’s Chinese food that hits the spot . No, it’s not healthy, but they don’t pretend to be. The walnut shrimps are conspicuously crunchy, satisfyingly sweet and indulgently intuitive.

Heartwarming family owned Chinese restaurant. Unbelievably delicious mapo tafo and orange chicken. Tried both as Lunch specials. Great portions and value too. Excellent service and the staff understood vegetarian/vegan dietary needs. Highly recommend this hidden gem. Will be a regular.

Ask what you want they will make it for you. Gluten or gluten free. The variety in this place is amazing. Is our favorite Chinese place in the Bay Area. Everything you eat is good. Plates are big. The wings are amazing.

I bought some SWEET AND SOUR PORK to go and the To Go BOX was NOT filled to the top which would have been a Full Serving. I’m sure if I sat down to eat the same meal inside the restaurant I would be able to fill the To Go BOX and still have food on the plate unless they serve the same small serving of SWEET and SOUR PORK. What do you think of the amount?

Got the sweet and sour pork, which was good and requested to have no spice/mild, but the spice level was more at medium, which my mouth was fired up and kept drinking water and refills were pretty frequent.

I’m sorry to say that I thought the number of stars would be a good representation of this restaurant. The fried Won Tons were at least a day old, the Sweet and Sour Pork, fried rice, Chow Fun were flavorless and low quality. Lastly, the Twice -Cooked Pork had about 5 pieces of pork! Very disappointed for the $63 paid and sad because the people who worked (owners?) were very nice. Restaurant Impossible, I found a new revamp for you!!
