Dunno why all the bad reviews. I generally liked most of the dishes I ordered. Good- Smoked pork pancake: really good. You can taste the smokiness I'm the near which I really liked. Pancake was thin and crispy. Each wrap had a good amount of meat. Braised tofu: hard to mess this up but it was good or at least at good as everybody else Braised Meatballs with glass noodles: I expected a thin glass noodles but it was a flat glad noodle which was interesting. The meatballs were as good as any other place I've tried this dish Chiliuxiang pork ribs: comes with a bit of chilis. Wish it had more but the ribs were good. But totally fall off the bone but kinda close. Ok- Fried pumpkin with Salted egg flavor: not sure what I was expecting here. It came as described but I guess I didn't expect batter. It was good but prob wouldn't get again Bad- Pineapple shrimp: the shrimp and dish is basically the same as like walnut shrimp. On their website menu it says shrimp balls so I ordered this out of curiosity. The shrimp themselves were ok but the pineapple had a really funky flavor. It tasted of gas/chemical. I'm guessing they cooked it on the same thing they cook meats on. Wouldn't recommend this dish Overall, felt this was a solid Chinese restaurant and would prob order from here again

Best takeout family combo in town, with good taste and unbeatable price. Love their Scallion pancakes, crispy eggplants and all tofu dishes.

蚂蚁上树好吃 第四鲜好吃 压锅土豆焖牛腩也不错 熏肉大饼也好吃 northern China style. Very authentic, a little salty but generally pretty good.

Our first time here, and we were blown away. The food was amazing!! FYI the sign on the outside says "Perfect Chinese Food" over the door, but Dingguagua in Chinese. We ordered: Guo Bao Rou (G20 Old-style Double Cooked Pork Slices $14.99) - we've been on the hunt for authentic guo bao rou and this one is the BEST in the Bay Area (SO says it's 80% authentic compared to back in Dongbei)! The others are too sweet, and Dingguagua makes theirs more sour than sweet so it's not overwhelming, and with that hard crisp (while other restaurants are soggy). We saw a lot of other tables ordered this too so everyone knows about it lol. SO GOOD! Big Shrimp Dry Pot (it says Shrimp Hot Pot on the receipt $16.99) - this isn't actually on the menu, but SO asked what type of dry pots they have, and the waitress said they had Dry Pot with all different types of meat, including big shrimp. This was FANTASTIC!! So complex in flavor and spice, the shrimp were fresh, gigantic, and meaty, and it had assorted fresh vegetables (bell pepper, lotus, celery, onions, bamboo). SO GOOD! Smoked Pork Pancake (A6 $10.99) - The shredded pork has so much smoky flavor and they give you such a generous portion. The pork is wrapped in an amazingly fresh pancake (if you love Beef Pancake or Scallion Pancakes, you will LOVE THIS! It's one of the best pancakes I've ever had), topped with some shredded green onions, cucumber, and hoisin sauce. You get four large pancakes! SO GOOD! We also got a Wang Lao Ji (canned herbal drink that has been around since 1828!) that tastes like a yummy sweet chrysanthemum tea. Perfect way to cap off a wonderfully high-quality satisfying meal!

Waitress's attitude was really aweful, very impatient to whatever I asked. To go order was almost like tossing to me and dropped on the pick up table....

I love this spot! They serve sensational meals, their menu is rich, The cook in that place is very trained, I love very much eating all their food. The dishes are consistently good, the attitude towards the customers is nice. I visit often this restaurant and I not even once was unsatisfied. Highly recommended.

The name on the building is *Perfect Chinese Food" My first time at this place. It's a different kind of Chinese food which a bit more flavorful than the Cantonese I usually get. My favorites were the Mongolian beef, pumpkin sticks, toothpick lamb. They have a massive menu with large photos of each item. The food came quickly on a busy Saturday evening. So many dishes to try.

I like their pickled cabbage, mutton soup and marinated pork feet. Good service. Large parking lots. I hope they can develop more new dishes.

Really good food! Great portion sizes. I'm usually never satisfied with portion sizes, this is the first time I thought "WOW this is big!" My parents are also picky with other Chinese food but they LOVED this place. Also really nice staff. I'm only giving this place 4 stars because of the amount of plastic I notice they use. It's like... an unnecessary amount. They give EVERYONE plastic straws even if you don't ask for it. They use seran wrap on some of the toppings they gave you. They also stick your plastic straw in your drink for you before they hand it to you, which I think might be a little weird for some people. You should at least leave it in a wrapper and not put it in for people. Would definitely be a 5 star if it wasn't for those minuscule things.

This restaurant also called Perfect China I believe. It's $25 cash for 3 dishes to go and we love them!!!! They are quick and tasty. I can't ask more.

Too bad Food took 20 minutes , the waitress told us it's on the pan that's why took so long while the food it's COLD !! excuse me !?

The menu looks great, and very diverse across many Chinese regions, but unfortunately the food is mediocre. The service team is nice and the food comes out promptly. Nice family environment, and could be good for a group. Looks like they specialize in north-eastern Chinese food. We ordered boiled fish hot pot. The fish tasted not fresh and the vegetables that it was supposed to come with were mostly cabbage and cheaper veggies. We counted one lotus root slice and a bunch of maybe ten enoki mushrooms. We also ordered garlic ribs, they were deep fried and did not taste seasoned with anything except a brush of black bean garlic sauce. This place has so much potential, and they were offering a very charming congee special for the weekend. Also, as I mentioned, the staff is very nice and attentive.
