I typically don't leave reviews for food because I believe they can be very subjective. However, I had such a great experience at this restaurant with my family last night, just 20 minutes before closing. We were treated exceptionally well, and the food was fantastic. Yes, it's affordable Chinese cuisine, but it's hard to find quality options these days. They have definitely earned our loyalty as a big family. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!

It's been years since I last visited this restaurant, and I have to say, the food wasn't as good as I remembered. The portion sizes are still generous, which is a plus. However, the service has definitely improved; our waiter had an impressive memory and recognized us even after all this time. The restaurant has also expanded, making it larger and more accommodating. Parking is easy, and the prices remain reasonable!
The tendon dish was horrible. The oil the food was cooked in was burned, and the whole dish had a funky flavor, making it tasted really bad. I didn't eat the dish and pushed it to the side. They asked me if I liked it and I said no. They still charge me for it. The owner kept yelling at someone in the kitchen the whole time. The person in the kitchen was even louder then the other guy.
I ordered the Mongolian Beef (Mongolian 107), but wow, they really piled on the onions! It felt like there were at least two whole onions in the dish. I wish I could share a photo to show just how outrageous it was. They should consider renaming it to "Mongolian Onion." Additionally, the rice was hard and not properly cooked. Book a table now
The food here is excellent and authentic. The portions are generous, and the service is quick. The owner is really friendly and approachable.
look for the 3 item specials but also the cho chow mein, Mongolian beef and beef noodle soup are all really good. fast service and friendly.
Old fashioned Chinese foods. Cheap and large volume. I like this place. Thanks for keeping their business during the COVID.
The best pig ears in the Bay Area! Their other offerings, like the pig intestines, are also delicious. Book a table now
The flavor is fantastic, but there is no actual beef—it's all gristle and cartilage.
Price and food is awesome! What more can you ask for?
