Chef P's Restaurant
Best Chinese restaurant I've ever been to. We drove from Central valley to try this restaurant. Every was perfect. Service was amazing and off course so was the food. But what really nice was the owner Lloyd came out to greet us and even sat with us and had a little chat with my family. We are definitely going back to enjoy this amazing place. Thanks Lloyd 👍 😊
Soft Salt Pepper Squid and Orange Chicken sauce on side are great, so is Less salty vegetable chow mein. Good choice of beers n soft drinks
Jade China Restaurant
Food is unfortunately bad. A simple chicken fried rice had no flavor, just carrots and peas, and the chicken looked undercooked, like a slimy piece of fish, with a lot of skin. They also didn’t include the drink that I ordered and paid for.
Jade China Restaurant is a popular spot for Chinese takeout. I stopped by in the evening to pick up some food, and the first thing I noticed was how busy the parking lot was. It can be a bit challenging to find a spot, but that’s usually a good sign of a well-loved restaurant. Sure enough, when I walked in, there was a line of customers waiting to place their orders, confirming that this place has a strong following. I ordered a variety of dishes to get a good sense of the menu, including Spicy Eggplant, Mixed Vegetables, Chinese Chicken Salad, Sesame Balls, Crab Rangoon, and Chow Fun with chicken. Despite the crowd, the service was efficient, and my food was ready in a reasonable amount of time. The Spicy Eggplant stood out with its perfect balance of heat and flavor. It had just the right amount of spice without being overwhelming, and the texture was excellent—tender yet not mushy. The Mixed Vegetables were fresh and cooked just right, retaining their natural crunch and flavor. Sometimes mixed vegetable dishes can be bland or overcooked, but that was not the case here. The Chinese Chicken Salad was another highlight. It was crisp, tasty, and well-balanced with a flavorful dressing that tied everything together. The combination of fresh vegetables, chicken, and crispy wonton strips made for a refreshing and satisfying dish. For appetizers, I tried the Sesame Balls and Crab Rangoon. The Sesame Balls were delightful, with a nice outer crunch that gave way to a soft, chewy center with a hint of sweetness. The Crab Rangoon had a crispy exterior and a creamy, flavorful filling that wasn’t too heavy or greasy. The Chow Fun with chicken was a solid choice as well. The noodles were cooked well, and the dish had a good balance of flavors, with tender chicken and a satisfying texture. Overall, I was very pleased with my meal. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. While the parking situation and the wait times might be a slight inconvenience, the quality of the food makes it well worth it. I’d definitely return to Jade China Restaurant for another delicious takeout experience!
Venus Cafe - San Jose
This restaurant has been here for a long time, I've been there maybe 3 times, but this will probably be my last time. It's very narrow inside, and the tables are right next to the tables next to them. I ordered Lemonade, but it came with a cup of sugar water + lemon slices for $5.95 (see picture ), the fried instant noodles were OK, but the pork chop was very thin $17.95 . The seafood puff soup not only took a long time to wait, but the soup inside was canned + two pcs shrimps, two pieces of squid $ 14.75 .
This establishment is a Hong Kong-style café, reminiscent of similar venues found in Los Angeles. It features a menu that offers a fusion of traditional Chinese and Western-style dishes, typical of the Hong Kong dining experience. While exploring the menu, I faced the challenge of choosing from a wide array of appealing dishes. Ultimately, I opted for the baked pork chop, which closely resembled my previous experiences and was quite enjoyable. Additionally, we ordered the Hainan chicken rice, a dish where the quality of the rice is crucial. While it was satisfactory, it didn't quite meet the standard of what I had previously tasted in LA. Another noodle dish we tried was also quite good. As I currently reside outside of the West Coast, I may not have the opportunity to return. However, for those who live in the area and are seeking authentic Hong Kong café cuisine, this restaurant is worth a visit.
Ma's Restaurant
3.5 Stars Ma Restaurant Ma Restaurant specializes in northern Chinese cuisine, with its signature dish being the beef noodle soup, a definite highlight on most visits. The flavors are rich, and the dishes are generally well-prepared and satisfying. However, consistency can be an issue. While the food is often delicious, there are occasional off-days, which detracts from the overall dining experience. This inconsistency, regardless of how busy the restaurant is, is something that needs improvement. On the bright side, the service here is excellent. The staff is friendly and attentive, making diners feel welcome and valued. And don’t miss the pleasant ending to your meal, a refreshing and delicious ice cream cone. It’s a simple treat that leaves you with a sweet note to remember. With a little more focus on maintaining quality every time, Ma Restaurant could easily reach the next level.
Was pleasantly surprised that the servings were larger than I expected. I had the Beef Stew Noodle Soup (紅燒牛肉麵) but was fortunate enough to try out a few other types of noodles. The XinJiang Lamb Kebab (新疆羊肉串) were really nice and reminded me of what I tried in China. Would definitely come back again.
New Sam Kee Restaurant
One of the few restaurant that is safe to eat regularly. Other places has too much spice n chemical gives me all sort of problems gum bleed, nose bleed, backache, thirsty n sore throat.. Staff cares about how customer feels, provide shade when it's sunny, close door when you are cold... The waitress gives very good recommendations. I like their fried foods: rice, ribs, crabs, calamari.. Update: aug 2024 surf clam glass noddle serves on 2 shells quality drop from 5 down to 2, chewy, dry taste metallic clam, no longer fresh just frozen. Lobster is still good but yesterday nooddle werent as good as before. Owner is annoying telling me to move to smaller table to reserve table for people who never come. Before I even heard arguments in the kitchen so apparently someone is not so pleasant.
Ordered the Lobster garlic noodles, roasted chicken and noodles soup, eggrolls. Very delicious!!! Chicken was roasted just the way I like it! And my hubby enjoyed the Lobster noodles. And my soup had no MSG, I knew this because after eating it, I did not have a headache lol Great food and good customer service. 👌
East Lake Chinese Restaurant and Dim Sum (東湖海鮮酒家)
One of the best Chinese restaurants in this area of San Jose. On the pricey side for Chinese food though, which as you know is generally cheap. We went on a week day so they didn’t have the lunch dim sum carts rolling. I think they do on weekends. But you can order dim sum through the waiter. The wet chow fun is yummy. Soft noodles, a decent amount of beef, and tasty gravy. Jin mein is crispy chow mein, and if you’ve never had it, I recommend to try of you like texture in your food. I mentioned dim sum so at least try the ha how (shrimp dumpling) and shu mai (pork dumpling). They’re big and plump. Jook (aka congee) is very good and you MUST get the Chinese donut (aka fried bread) to pair with it! I do NOT recommend the soup dumplings (aka XLB). They are terrible.
I was on the way to a different place and found dimsum! The rice rolls stood out the most and the onion pancake! Loved the shrimp and eggplant, tripe and the chicken feet!
New Hwong Kok
My first time to enter this to go/pick up dim sum place. The atmosphere is not warm or welcoming so you can easily see that decor/ atmosphere is not deemed important. Since it is pickup only, I assume this is why no importance is given to looks as customers will not be eating in. I bought: shrimp fry ball( 2 for $4.50), 3 fried sesame balls($4.25), fried shrimp tofu(3 for $4.50), and a sticky rice lotus leaf($4.50). I immediately ate the 2 shrimp fry balls. It was lukewarm but delicious. I couldn't help myself and ate a fried shrimp tofu: delicious. I will eat the sesame balls, sticky rice and 2 shrimp tofu this evening. You might be daunted by the unattractive look and decor of this business but their strength lies in the taste of their food. I'm not a gourmand in dim sum. I'm more of a plebeian taste and this dim sum tastes good. The presentation and lighting in the display counters could be improved so the customer can clearly see what is available and how it looks. You should come at least once so you can taste for yourself whether the dim sum suits your palate.
First time visiting this place. Simple set up and everything works efficiently for the takeaways. Love the efficiency and convenience
Golden Buddha
It's been about 15 years since I've been to golden Buddha, now I remember why I stopped going. $125 for day old pork fried rice, rubber Mongolian beef, okay lemon chicken, the soggiest sweet and sour pork and decent sesame balls. 5 plates of takeout for $125. Never go there again. Trash.
Very good food. Very big portion. Great service.
Evergreen Panda Restaurant
4 stars on serv and atmosphere...no lunch seating and counter service...long waits on orders...but the food kills!!! Amazing flavors, fresh, really is delicious. Just that alone trumps the lower scores for an overall 5 star. Must try place and the price is right. Peking Ribs and thank you.
This is an order to go restaurant, no dine in. As you walk in, the atmosphere is calm, clean, and open. One service line to order. The wait for our order was not too long. We ordered crab rangoon that were nice and crispy. A combination plate of chow mein, orange chicken and Mongolian bbq. Walnut shrimp. The plate is packed with food. The flavor is good. The Mongolian bbq was more on the spicy side for my liking, and the orange chicken was a bit dry on the marinade. The chow mein was pretty bland. I think I only went there for Walnut shrimp which were crispy and saucy nice portion.
Ocean Delight
Best food ever. I have been having dinner at least once a month for 10 years and never disappointed...
The food was okay, hot and fresh. The prices were very good. Unfortunately, a step below Golden Palace (Cupertino) and Gourmet House (Fremont) in food quality.
New Jade China
Ever go to a place and you ordered a dish that looks/sounds good and you order it and it was so delicious that when you go back again it will be the only thing you order. My wife brought me home Honey Walnut Shrimp. I received it cold but the size of the shrimp made me go wow! It was delicious and I couldn't finish it. The following week I went back and told the counter guy my last week experience, I own a restaurant and I know they love positive feedback. Guess what I did? I ordered it again and ate it in the parking lot in my car. It was very hot and much better than I expected. I'm now afraid to try anything else. I looked for shrimp & lobster sauce but did not have. That WAS my go to dish!
I really like this place! Lots of value for your money! Very nicely portioned plates, fresh and delicious food, consistently exceeds expectations! I highly recommend the Beef Chow Fun!
China Delight
China Delight is a good place if you are looking for classic Chinese food. The portions are generous and generally the food is tasty. I wasn't a huge fan of the mustard greens because they weren't cut so they were in large, tough pieces that were difficult to chew. Overall, China Delight is a good place to go with a clean and cozy atmosphere. The food here is consistent so you always know what to expect!
I was curious to try this place after driving past it so many times and home eats in Cupertino let me down the last time I ate there. We had the eggplant and combo noodle special and a bowl of rice. The food was pretty tasty and fresh but I felt like it was expensive for Chinese food. 25$ for noodles and about $17 for eggplant, 3$ for rice. Service and ambience was nicer than your typical Chinese restaurant but was it worth another visit? We’ll see
