Just amazing all around. The cabbage is savory. The pork and pepper/mushrooms are amazing. The luffah was undersalted though. I didn't care for the chicken tomato/potato pot but it's objectively cooked well. The mushroom stir fry is a must get. Cauliflower is cooked perfectly. The sour fish fillet is mid

Used to be my favorite Chinese restaurant in San Mateo county even before they moved from El Camino to Marina Foods plaza. I loved some of their lunch specials and although they kept on raising prices but at least they taste good. The service is good as they would wrap leftover food for you instead of just throwing you some togo boxes. This place used to focus on Hunan but probably sensing a lack of Yunan cuisine they are branching out to Yunan food. I don't think they are that authentic but at least they are delicious. I really like their Farmers Combo (egg, pork, wood ear mushroom and other stuff), spicy and sour beef, and Iove their conch with special mushrooms. Their spiciness is authentic so when they say original spicy make sure you can hold your spiciness before being gunho about your tolerance to spicy food. The place is not large so you may have to wait in the weekend. I do think the price is too high now especially their frog dishes but I still decided to keep the 5 star rating because it is still one of the best Chinese food restaurants in the Bay Area. Oh you can also find parking in the rear or side if parking at the front is too crowded.

Disappointed at this place, ordered food, unable to eat it due to the extreme amount of salt, DoorDash wouldn’t refund me, my husband let the restaurant know and they said to deal with DoorDash…well this goes straight to the garbage can!!!! So so disappointed!!!!

It's difficult to find a really good Chinese restaurant. We decided to try this one out and it didn't make the mark. First, it looks beat up. The interior is dark, the menus books are worn and dirty and it all looks sad. But that didn't mean the food wouldn't be good. However, it did not measure up. We got Salt and Pepper Pork Chops and Beef Chow Fun. The portions were large. The meat in the Chow Fun was was chewy and the noodles lacked flavor. The chops had an okay flavor but they were all kinds of sizes, some with sharp bone pieces and there were little pieces of breading with no meat inside. The meal was filling but disappointing.

It was awful. I wish I would have kept walking towards Marketplace @ Metro Center but was hungry. Watered down Hot & Sour soup, dried out white rice, low budget cuts of chicken. The soup served in a paper container from another store. Food served in white styrafoam to go container. I was dining in, this apparently is how they serve. Any good reviews must be mixed up w/Hot Wok Bistro (Burlingame) which is decent. I don't eat out much, what a HUGE disappointment to waste money like this. The Diet Coke, served in a can (no glass or ice) was by far the best part of this "meal". Never going back, lesson learned.

Ping's Bistro was packed so I came here instead. What a mistake! Hunan Shrimp was surgery sweet and Salt Pepper Pork Chops was all salt and no pepper (and unnaturally pasty white). Rice was old, reheated from days ago. Funny how they serve dishes in to go containers? And also odd that I was only customer on a Sunday night. The table felt like it was going to collapse. Worn out chairs. Lesson learned.
