2/5 Updated Jan 2023: has really fallen off, prices increased drastically, portions definitely not as large anymore, especially the Chinese bbq.4/5 Original review 2017: Decent value for the money, some of the better Chinese bbq in the area. Other dishes are made well as well. Quick and fast service and food!

I love Chinese food, but this one's not worth 17.49$. Their food quality is really bad for the price. The beef, and chicken are tough as hell. Sorry, but I will never come back again. ?

Ordered lunch on their website for pickup. Got 2 item BBQ combination plate, I ordered roast duck and roast pork and also got a beef stew wonton noodle soup. The roast duck and pork, well they gave me BBQ pork instead. I was very disappointed. Roast Duck got mostly bone and neck with little meat - 2 Stars BBQ Pork a little on the dry side - 2 Stars Beef Stew Wonton Noodle Soup was average - 3 Stars Now here is the part why they gone a 1 stars would of been ZERO if that was an option. I walked in to pick up my order. The person the help me said come by the tablet they have there and pointed to it and said "saw you tipped online, but next time you order online can you not tip and give us cash, and explained to me the the owner keeps ALL tips from credit card transactions. Yet on their website, it stays that all tips go to the stuff. LIARS!!!!

I had ordered 4 dishes using app (Fantuan ) two days ago, When I about getting my dishes and I ask the owner to see if she could provide me with some spoons for my kids. She said not provide any dinning ware because I was order the dishes via app (Fantuan), and ask me why didn't order directly from her instead using Fantuan, and she said they always wait for last mins to prepare the food that orders via Fantuan, her attitude sounds rude .The food tastes bad. I think the rice is not fresh. it tastes like overnight. we end up not eat it all these 4 dishes.

Our go-to place for Chinese takeout. We've gone to this establishment for over 10 years.

This no frill restaurant is my go-to for comfort Chinese food. The food has been consistently good and their duck is better than other places so far. Good portion overall. The only thing I do not recommend is their water. It’s tap. The older women working there provided efficient service.

Some of these reviews are terrifying, so I am here to reassure you that if you, like me, randomly ordered from here on doordash and are reading reviews after, it's going to be ok. We got three dishes: beef noodle soup, 3 meat bbq plate, and curry beef rice plate... No one finished their food. Beef noodle soup, the broth was OK, very ginger forward. The meat was toooo salty. I didn't finish. Two stars. 3 meat bbq. It looks good, but all the meats were only salty and texture was not great. She didn't finish. Two to three stars. Curry beef plate (not pictured) all the meat was very tough, curry flavor was OK. Alot of onions. He did not finish. Three stars. We don't think there will be a follow up order...

I should have trusted my gut... walked in during peak lunch hour and the restaurant was empty while other nearby places had customers. Braised Beef Brisket Noodle Soup - the brisket obviously went bad, it had a sour taste and I felt sick afterward. The soup base was basically water, with no flavor whatsoever! BBQ Platter - the BBQ Pork, the duck, and the chicken, for sure were from the day before and just microwaved. The meats were dry and tough to chew. The Roast Pork skin wasn't even cooked properly, as you can see from the photo, it never cracked so it was impossible to bite down, and the bottom was super salty! Crab Meat with Braised Noodle - Noodles were overcooked so it super soft, not the chewy texture that this type of noodle was supposed to have. Porridge - this is probably the only decent thing out of all that I ordered, I guess if I had to give the 1-star, it's for this! No need to come back!

The restaurant was used to be one of the best family style Chinese restaurants in the Bay area. Now, it becomes so so place because of staff changes, increasing price and small portion. I need to find a new place to go...
The food and service was fantastic. The gentleman made me feel welcomed. I ate there 2 days in a row. Can't wait to go back. Marcus

I ordered egg and shrimp chow fun for to go today. When I opened it, this is huge bug inside as attached. I backed to the restaurant let them refund to me. They won't refund it to me and the chef said it is onion. WTF! Is the chef blind? They won't refund to me anyways. Don't go there forever!

Overall Terrible! When we walked in and our shoes were sticking to the floor on the way to our table we would have turned around and left but we were meeting family and it was their choice. The duck was cold and the skin was rock hard. Other dishes were better than the duck but still bad. I can get better food at the fast food place that starts with a "P". Do not eat here! Terrible is the kindest word I can use here to describe this place.

Terrible Chinese cuisine I've ever had my entire life. The pictures on the walls looks so yummy, but when the order gets to your table, it's like sad ?. I would not suggest anybody take their family and waste over $250 dinner like I did. And for the record I don't even know how they pass inspection. The floor is so dirty and sticky, it's seems like it's not been mop for couple years. The bathroom was worst then a Porto potty. The chef didn't seem friendly at all. Don't let the hanging roast duck fool you. That's probably the only thing they can do right. But up closely, I don't even think the duck is right , neither is the crispy pork ?. Surprisingly it's not shut down!!! To tell you the truth we didn't even want to pavk the left over. Worst of all I couldn't watch the kids eat it another bit, pull the plate away from my 4yr old...

I was looking for some good Cantonese BBQ, and I ordered the rice plate with BBQ pork, Roasted duck & Soy sauce chicken. The BBQ is terrible and not fresh at all. Feels like been left in fridge for a few days. The rice and vegies are cold. I had to leave after finish 1/4 of my food, and looking for other things to eat. I recommend stay away from this restaurant.
