The fried rice was like paste, it was too bad. 1 star is too much. I have fried rice better than this. I wasted $26 for a fried rice and milk tea. Worst food I've ever had in my life

Good and tasty food at affordable prices for the amount they served. Friendly staff. Dine in available but seating is limited. Free parking but can get hectic on busy days.

Authentic Chinese cuisine for a great price. We celebrated my wife's, and my daughters partner's Birthdays. It's a great place for family dinners, sharing food ordered for the table. They used to accept only cash, but they have added Venmo for payments.We ordered Hot and Sour Soup, Singapore Noodles, Eggplant Hot Pot, BBQ Pork, and Honey Walnut Shrimp. The price was just less than $25/person, with lots of leftovers taken home.Vegetarian options: There are a few vegetarian options, but not many.

If you are looking for incredible value for Chinese takeout, the combo plates are you choice. Loaded up, pretty tasty, and a great price point.

No frills place. Not the best food I’ve ever had but the Mapo Tofu has the nice Szechuan numbing spice. I would go back here again to try their breakfast.

Half a year ago I came, the food was delicious. Now it's less fresh and a bit stale. I ordered fried noodles and tofu, it was a bit sour. The chickpeas are pretty

This place can get very busy fast. Find a good seat be ready to order and enjoy. My favorite is Shrimp Wonton soup w/o the noodles. The shrimp/pork combination is great. Fresh crunchy veggie and an amazing soup! Service is always fast and friendly with hot tea for you.

I recently visited Sam Woo BBQ Restaurant for a weekday lunch, expecting a pleasant dining experience but was left disappointed. The restaurant was almost empty with only a couple of tables occupied, which initially seemed like a good sign for quick service. However, that was not the case. We were seated immediately, which was the only prompt service we received throughout our visit. After being seated, the staff seemed to forget about us. Attempts to catch the attention of the waitress were futile, resulting in a 15-minute wait just to place our order. This lack of attention and service was a recurring theme throughout our meal. I ordered a whole duck with three white rices for our party of three. The duck was served lukewarm to cold, which was less than appetizing. While the taste was just okay, the size of the duck was surprisingly small. It was barely enough for the three of us and consisted more of fat and grease than actual meat. The white rice, a staple that should be hard to get wrong, was mushy and not at all appealing. The service issues didn't end with the meal. Trying to get the check proved to be another challenge. Our attempts to flag down a waitress were ignored, forcing me to stand up and attempt to pay at the counter. Even then, I was told to sit back down and that the check would be brought over to us. In summary, the disappointing service, the quality and presentation of the food, and the overall dining experience at Sam Woo BBQ Restaurant ensure that I will not be returning. It's unfortunate, as I had hoped for a much better experience.
Everything’s good, but especially the green beans and crispy tofu.

Came here yesterday evening at 6:30pm & ordered the roasted pork with rice plate and the 3 bbq (chicken, bbq pork and duck) with rice plate. Food was so dry and bland. Rice was hard. Flavors lack. Food quality is not the same as it used to be. You are better off going to the 99 ranch fast food area.

This bowl of soup was like a warm hug. I took note of when placed my order and within the same minute my noodles came out! They were piping hot! Just as I told myself I didn't want to fill up on the noodles, my duck over rice arrived. I think the duck, its sauce/juices, and the rice combined were perfect. Flavorful, tender, and slightly sweet. The lady who helped me was kind and definitely helped make my day.

Generous portions. Chicken wings and noodles were pretty good. Orange chicken was ok.

We go here often before buying grocery at 99 ranch. Their food taste so yummy. Young chow fried rice has lots of shrimps and meat in it. The Cod with black beans is so good with chili sauce. You have to bring cash they don't take credit card. .service was quick.
