I love that they bring everything to you as it is ready. It was a bit weird that we received our appetizers last, but I would much rather have fresh food than food in a specific order. If they could refine the timing, it would be even better. Everything was seasoned appropriately and the portions are not bad. It’s not cheap, but we also had some leftovers. The punch I got was well-balanced, but my friend wasn’t a huge fan of her panda punch. I would have to try more drinks to comment on the cocktails at length, but they seem decent to good. I’ll be back, I only wish they had a larger menu.

The food here is amazing and they have a plethora of vegan options. I was very pleasantly surprised with how tasty the food was given the seemingly unorthodox fusion. I would recommend it for meat eaters and plant based people alike.

We stumbled upon this place and it was SO good. We were pleasantly surprised. We checked out their brunch and we loved the chicken and waffles, the diner plate- the egg was cooked perfectly, the potato was nice and crispy. The chili oil is so good. The brisket fried rice was yummy too. And omg the pandan donut is a must! Definitely check this place out!

“Magnificent!!” That’s the word that comes to mind when I think of Old Thousand. Great food, great staff, and great menu items to choose from. The cuisine has such a stellar taste that I wouldn’t eaten much more if I wasn’t so full! 10/5 stars!

Pretty dang spicy to us but we pushed through. The chili wontons were my favorite but definitely the hottest part of our meal. My son got the Mala fried chicken (sans chili sauce) and my husband got the brisket fried rice. It was all delicious and filling. It is served family style and you are given your own plate so you can try a bit of everything. Our server was attentive, friendly and thorough. We liked the chill, kind of dark atmosphere. Probably the only negative, and it was small, was that it was pretty warm inside of the restaurant. Mixed with the spice and room temperature, my husband was sweating pretty good haha.

Excellent food and service We had the Brisket Fried Rice, Mala Fried Chicken, Chinese Green, TSO Chicken, and Chinese Donut Holes. Even though they seem to be an American owner and have American cooks but the food is SO Chinese man. Everything smells so good. The fried rice seems to be fried using a bit of fat which causes the authentic sense of smell.

Salt, with your Chinese food on the side. They must’ve mixed the salt and something else shaker or something because everything was so salty it almost became spicy because it hurt so much. And immediate diarrhea right after. By the time we came out of the bathroom someone was already sitting in our seats!! Hahaha. Good potential, creative food. Just so salty….. don’t recommend for your truly Asian parents. Good for young people with blood pressure to spare.

I placed an order for delivery. The food arrived hot and in well packaged boxes. The food was tasteful with a slightly spicy taste afterward. This is the first time I’ve ever had brisket in my fried rice. Definitely different but worth a try!

Food was great for me, but I love spicy. The place had a good vibe, but it was so loud I think the vibe were the voices bouncing of the walls. (Look into acoustics.) I could tell who was supposed to be our wait staff and we couldn’t hear them. The guy did give great food recommendations though!
