“The tastiest noodle soup I have ever had. I love ramen, pho, Thai soups and this place is the best. I can’t wait to go back. I’ll definitely be a regular. I got a front row seat, watching the chefs pull the noodles, while I ate my delicious spicy wontons and beef bone broth soup. There are 5 noodle sizes to choose from, to customize your soup, from angel hair to wide. Delicious.“

“Good, solid neighborhood restaurant with Chinese cuisine. The staff were friendly, and provided me with tea and shelled peanuts while I waited for my pick up order. There is a wide selection of items to choose from, and our order of a rice dish, noodle dish, salt/pepper ribs and cucumber salad was very good. I was there on a Saturday night, and even though the restaurant was well attended, my order came out very quickly. I would recommend this this restaurant :)“

“The food is good not salty, we ate no meat today for its good friday holy week. The Egg Drop drop with seaweeds is perfect.Vegetarian options: Not too much because most of their dishes have pork.Kid-friendliness: Friendly with children and old too.“

“We LOVE this restaurant!! The staff is so nice. The food is always hot & the vegetables taste & look fresh. The spring rolls & fried wontons are crispy like they should be. My husband is crazy about the curried chicken. The hot & sour soup is just spicy enough with fresh ingredients. This is our favorite Chinese restaurant!“

“We found this place on Yelp, and the photos looked interesting. We eagerly walked in without reservations and were greeted by a lovely gentleman who directed us to the check-in station. We were seated by a lovely woman who asked if we had been there before, and we said no. She proceeded to personally walk us through the menu and guide us based on our taste. We chose the cucumber salad. It was a hot day, and the minute we took a bite, we cooled off. It was delicious. The next item was the spicy pork wontons. Fire...they came out piping hot, so be careful, but they were delicious. The pork and shrimp soup dumplings were next. Top-notch and fun to eat. Also piping hot, we love it when our food is hot. We then had the pork pan-fried potstickers. This keeps getting better with every dish. For dessert, we had Banana Naan, white peach ice cream, or banana chocolate chip ice cream--all to die for.“

“We called for Easter lunch, was answered right away. Walked in and got seated, menu is online- fast and easy to order. Our food arrived shortly after, everything was tasty and good amount! We ordered Original Soup, Pork dumpling, Yang Chow Fried rice, Beef Onion, Fried Chicken and Egg rolls! Food is freshly cooked and good portion! We are all satisfied.“

“I was really heartbroken when I moved from SF to Concord because that meant not being able to buy food from my favorite Chinese restaurant. Shan Shan low restaurant was able to glued my heart back together again. The food here is extraordinary. Flavors are always on point. If you are looking for good quality food and good service please check them out!! I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! Si están en busca de comida China con un gran sabor y calidad no duden en venir a Shan Shan restaurant. La comida aquí tiene un excelente sabor. Muy recomendando. :)“

“Since moving to the neighborhood a few years ago, this Chinese restaurant has become our favorite takeout spot. Their fried rice and eggplant fried tofu dish are consistently excellent, keeping us coming back for more. We appreciate the consistently delicious food and reliable service whenever we crave Chinese cuisine!“

“Our party of 19 ate here the night after Christmas. Yo's on Hartz is such a nice and intimate place to eat. The manager, Evelyn, made sure our large party was well taken care of and gave excellent meal recommendations. Everyone enjoyed their food and cocktails. We look forward to dining here again!“

“My family and I finally got to try Dough Zone and so happy I did. We ordered two fried potstickers, wonton soup, beef noodle soup, onion pancakes and the cucumbers. Everything was hot and delicious! My kids ate everything which was awesome because they can be picky. We finished everything and they already asked to return on the car ride home. Highly recommend! Check them out and you will not be disappointed!“

“10/10 really delicious! After Mandarin Garden closed down, been searching for a place that has jjajangmyeon and jjampong as similar to theres. Been knowing the restaurant owners previously and they recommended Great Wall and the owner would sometimes work as a chef here!! Food was great, honey walnut prawns were such a huge portion and the egg fried rice was flavorful as well. The jjampong hit the spot as well and the portions for everything were massive. Assorted appetizers were very tasty, their sauces complimented it a lot and I definitely want to try their calamari next time! I loved seeing all of the locals coming in, and by the atmosphere alone you can tell the food and service will be good. (They were very attentive)“

“I LOVE this restaurant. The food just gets better and better. Every time we add something new to our order, we fall in love with more dishes. I love Chinese food and am super picky. So to have been able to find this gem has made me and myFamily super happy! Sunday movie nights are filled with yummyChinese food and a good show/movie!“

“Every time my girlfriend and I come here we get the absolute best service, the food is just spectacular and so authentic and always fresh. Literally the best salmon sashimi I have ever had. Aside from that, it's just so cozy and inviting and everybody is so friendly, oh and the portions are monstrous! You will love this place if you love authentic Japanese and Chinese food!“

“The food was excellent! I was with two of my counterparts as we were working in the area (I am from Florida, one counterpart from Las Vegas and the last from Visalia) and we had dumplings, kung pao chicken, sweet and sour pork, Mongolian beef with combination rice. It was absolutely fantastic!The service was incredible and we asked for absolutely nothing during our meal as it was taken care of before we even realized we needed it done.I highly recommend this location as you will not be disappointed.“

“Dropped by here over the weekend. Been coming here for years, long before the pandemic. Been to other places that sell dumplings too. Some of those places sell premium dumplings too. The dumplings at this place are good. On par with the expensive places around the bay, even in LA.The service is okay. The atmosphere is casual.Definitely my go to pot for dumplings.“

“Long wait but super worth it. Family owned and run. I believe it's just the husband and wife and a chef or two. Mongolian beef, shao lin chicken , and fried orange chicken wings all INSANE!! Not sure if I got the names right but I'm pretty sure if you mention those they'll correct you! Favorite Chinese I've ever had for sure!“

“Best Chinese restaurant in Contra Costa County. delicious food and excellent service. Can’t complain about anything. I’ve been going here a long time and I’m never disappointed. It’s family owned, there is never a wait, and the owners are very nice.“

“Have eaten at Peony Garden several times. Food is consistently good, atmosphere is nice, service is adequate and matter of fact. More authentic Cantonese dishes. They have a rewards program that needs some work but can be straightened out with some persistence. Would recommend for casual dining.Parking: If you get there early for lunch around 11:30am, you're more likely to get a parking space in the lot. Usually not that difficult-“

“We are always looking for great Chinese food. We have lots of places that we go for Chinese food and most of them are very average. 5 of us ate dinner here a couple of weeks ago. Every dish we had was well prepared, tasty, and flavorful. Mongolian beef, Szechuan pork, lemon chicken, pork fried rice, chow menu were all great. I particularly loved the pot stickers. So many times they are kind of doughy and seem undercooked. These were light, nicely browned and crispy on the outside. Probably the best potstickers I've ever had and I've had a lot. Can't wait to come back.“

“The food and service were good. However, we were greatly disappointed that the waiter didn't bring us our change and let us decide how much of a tip to leave. More and more restaurants are just assuming you don't want change. So it is best to have a bunch of small bills with you or use your credit card.“

“Don't be fool by it's appearance. It used to be you can dine in before pandemic. However,they offer to go only. Food is very tasty ,and you get a good portion for a decent price. Lunch rice plate is around $9:00,is served until 3:00pm. Credit card accepted. Let's support this tiny place with good food ,good price by a good family always with a smile.??❤️Parking: Parking ar rear with limited space,but you always can find street parking.“

“I have been to a bunch of Chinese restaurants in the area, but I always keep coming back to Leo's. The food is just better here, and some of the best Chinese cuisine you'll find in the East Bay. The unassuming family-run restaurant is rather small, but the service is excellent, and the food is always fresh and flavorful. And they are very agreeable to modifying a dish to suit your taste. The menu is large and features some unique dishes. The tangerine beef was a perfect combination of sweet, tangy, and crispy... almost like eating candy. And the dried cooked green beans are a regular favorite for me, crunchy and flavorful. They have a full bar and wine list too. Always a good meal here.“

“Ivy is a great cook and great support for our parties. She is always willing to help, provides suggestions, she just gets things done with no supervision at all. You just tell her what you need once, and she makes good notes, and she will just get it done. We have hired her service twice, and planning to hire her for a lot more in the future. Highly recommended!“

“A solid 4.5 stars. Normally, we do take out from Imperial Palace; but, we have dined in too. The two female servers are very efficient, polite, and quick. My husband eats here more than me. He absolutely loves it here. His favorite dish is the rib eye steak with mushrooms. As long as they continue to be fair with their portions; he'll be a lifer here. Lol. Last time, I ordered the beef tomato/tomato beef. Of course, the hubz had to help himself to my food too. Smh. When he does that, he loves the food. IMO it's rude (lol); but, when we find a solid place in San Ramon; I'll take it. The restaurant is always busy when we walk in and you can see that they have their regulars here. The ambiance isn't anything fancy; but, that is fine with me as long as the food tastes 'ono, portions are on point, and service is decent. I still get a kick when I saw the green beans on the table. That's straight old school in my book. I loved that.“

“Really good food .Tell them the ginger man sent you.They will even change the food a bit.As of April 24th I see they have indoor dining again.Today lunch for me was the Wor Won Ton soup.I have had it many times because it is so good.You’d be hard pressed to find a better one.“

“staff is very friendly and efficient! love the fun concept mixed with tasty traditional noodles. I got R2 and the soup base is delicious; combined with all the toppings that come with it, it's a very filling meal and worth the price. store is clean, has different seating styles, nice lighting, and overall great atmosphere.“

“Good Chinese food, but of course any such place has hits and misses. We loved the Szechuan shrimp and chow mein, not so much General chicken and chicken with spicy garlic (I think that was it, flat chicken slices with too much breading). Overall one of our favorite Chinese places in the extended Tei-Valley though.“

“I feel like this review is going to be unfair, because last time we had an out of this world experience. First visit. The restaurant was completely empty. An older gentleman suggested an amazing slow braised meat in curry. It was so tender and tasteful beyond description. We waited a while for that dish. Others in my party praised the food as amazing as well. Second visit. We tried to get that meat braised in curry and received a beef version of curry chicken. Now it wasn't bad but it wasn't amazing. The food us still pretty good, but after that first visit, it's really hard to compare anything to the flavors we tasted. So, I am going to still give it a 4 stars eventhough I feel that there has definitely been a change in taste and flavor.“

“The best restaurant I've ever been to. We started by ordering four meals the chow mein, the fried wonton, wrappers, the orange chicken, and the Kung pow chicken. It was all delicious, and they gave an extra plate of wonton wrappers. the waitress was really kind and tried to take off 20% from our order but we kindly declined. The restaurant was very clean and they kept coming over to take trash. Overall, I highly recommend this one of the best restaurants I've ever been to.“

“Wow!!! Driving home with my kids from a beautiful celebration of life and someone said I was Chinese food... So I plugged in Chinese restaurant on Google Maps and we found JL Kitchen.Dinner with some seriously picky eaters with negative attitudes... where everyone says... "Wow... This food is soooo good" after trying each thing... This is a first!!!This place is amazing and I hope to find a reason to go to San Leandro more often... Or just to come here works!!!Kid-friendliness: One adult and 3 kids.... And when the youngest dropped her fork, I went to pick it up (because by the youngest of 4 and you chill out a lot!) But the server heard it hit the ground and came over with another one before we could get to it!“

“非常吃！我会回来!Authentic, handmade dumplings. The vegetarian steamed dumplings are superb -- top-notch ingredients, truly special, with wonderful mushrooms. They make the only vegetable chow mein I ever liked -- wonderful. The beef rolls are tasty, fun, and filling. The staff is always kind -- we feel welcome and go often.“

“Our go-to Chinese restaurant closed and we've been searching for a replacement. We order take out. New Moon has a big menu with our favorite dishes. They were busy, but our order was ready quickly and on time. We were very happy with the food quality. No disappointments. The restaurant was very pleasant inside. They have some big tables for groups. We have found our new go-to.“

“Very lovely owners who cook and clean themselves and make DELICIOUS food. Please, if you're looking for a nice change of pace, come try this restaurant out. Such friendly staff ( all family) and very quiet, nicely lit atmosphere. Quick to come out with food and very gentle attitudes toward customers. Will definitely be coming back here again.“

“The portions are very generous in this restaurant.I do mostly take-out. Foods are of good quality, good flavor, very healthy, and large portions.The prices are reasonable.We come often.Parking: Business is always busy such that parking lot is also busy.“

“Went out for lunch with 3/10/24 Sichuan is located in a quiet area. Outside, no wannabe macho men making vehicular racket. Inside, no misbehaving parents training their children to be noisy neighbors. My not so clean daughter had Some Nerve to complain about smudge in her teacup. The waiter explained that "the cups are clay and the tea stain is impossible to remove". I'm thinking of calling it tea patina maybe? The service and presentation was Fine, Almost Everything tasted delicious. That interesting Szechuan spice yummy umm. Moist pork shoulder with crunchy and chewy skin oh yes.. Lip numbing tofu squares pressing sweetly on my tongue! Save me! Take me back for more! Ok I'm getting carried away but it was a very good meal and worth 60 miles on the odometer. Almost all the dishes were perfect. The only complaints? The potsticker wrapper was a bit chewy. Also the Walnut Prawns were conspicuously short on walnuts and one son wanted more sweet sauce on them. I found them refreshingly not too sweet. Check out the pics. And visit my new gem in Pleasant Hill.“

“So I tried going to a restaurant with a hotpot called shabuya WORST place ever I couldn't get a seat the process to get seated is ridiculous. So bam I google HOTPOT restaurant and boom steamboat I call the young lady is so sweet she says No reservations needed I get there it's my first time me and my family party of 6 they explained the process and they had all the sauces and paste to go with the food unlike shabuya per my daughter no seasoning what so ever.. so boom we're eating it's nice and family friendly this is a tea good authentic place and the staff is so respectful sweet and helpful I don't usually tip but man I gave them a 20$ tip and went back 3 days later just myself and husband and 2 daughters just to make sure in the kids of the day and again service was impeccable.. my new fav spot.. good food good ambience..“

“Three favorable things caught my attention at this restaurant. One, I was pleasantly greeted by the owner when I walked through the door. Two, the portions were very, very generous. And three, there were NO peas in the fried rice. Don't get me wrong, I love peas, just not a fan of peas in my fried rice...I'm the one who annoyingly picks them out. There are two styles of Chow Mein, I chose the thin noodles and not because one looked better than the other...I just wanted to get my fill of the other goodies in my box.Parking: A few spaces in front; shared parking with 7-11 convenience store.“

“Ordered to go from here for the first time a week ago. Got some of the staples, and the food was definitely better than average as far as to go goes. The restaurant was very authentic and the staff were friendly, great ambiance and I regretted not just going there to dine.“

“We were seated very fast! Was very busy at lunchtime. I think we only waited 10 minutes. Very friendly and accommodating wait staff as well. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. I love dim sum and they didn't disappoint! The ambience was fine. I like that they are family friendly. Lots of children and elderly people enjoying the experience. I'll be going back!“

“BEST CHINESE IN THE EAST BAY HANDS DOWN !! There's a reason they've been around for 30+ years ! Never once been disappointed and our family's been going here for decades. The owners & waiters are an absolute delight as well and are always so fun to speak with. Genuinely cannot recommend this place enough, their lunch specials are such a good deal so if you want to try here and leave stuffed for under $15 swing by! The ginger scallion beef is stupid fire and their kung Pao is the best I've had. Hope they continue to be in business for another 30 years :) love you guys !“

“Came here on MLK day for some dim sum and I was not disappointed. It took a while for everything to come out, but it was all warm and yummy so worth the wait. Some highlights were the egg tart, the siu mai, and lo mai gai. I'm a big fan of egg tarts and these are definitely top six. The texture of the crust was flaky in the best way, and the filling was perfectly cooked and silky. The location is a little hard to find parking but it's worth it!“

“Food here is great! Love the Hula Work BBQ meal I ordered. Serving is huge, fulfilling. Authentic Cantonese flavor and service is fast. Enjoyed hearing the chef while he is cooking in the kitchen, brings back memories of some restaurants in Chinatown. Place is also nice and cozy. Good for family or group of friends dining in. Definitely recommended to those looking or craving Cantonese food.Parking: Common parking and free with access to other stores nearby.“

“Absolutely love this hidden gem . My reviews are for the spice lovers, who prefers extra hot. We enjoyed our dinner. My all time favorite, sauteed lotus root. We also ordered shredded pork, green onion pancake, chicken fried rice and shrimp fried rice. Thoroughly enjoyed every bite of the lotus. My go-to when it comes to Chinese! Hot Tea is good as well, very much needed for the season.“

“All the years I've been going here, I can't believe I'm just now writing a review. This is my go to for Chinese takeout. The menu is typical fast casual Chinese, I've had some of the best cream cheese Rangoons and salt and pepper chicken here. Their war wonton soup is delicious and perfect for the cold. My go to is their prawns chow mein, they serve a massive portion of noodles and a good amount of shrimp. I always get the fried rice for my mom which she loves. Love the food, fantastic portions especially for the price - they give you exactly what you paid for and fast, efficient service. I love the staff. I've been a regular for a few years now and they always slide me extra crab Rangoons or egg rolls. Little stuff like that, on top of the good food, keep me coming back. I will always support as long as they're here.“

“it has a good selection of different types of rice rolls and congee. The rice noodle was very light and smooth. The pork in ours was very tender and it came with lettuce in it which was different from other places. The congee was very smooth and had lots of meat in it. All the food came out very hot.“

“Have been going here for my lunch breaks the last few years. The women at the counter all day is so kind and sweet. The food will literally last me into the next day from how big they pack it. For the price everything was great, everyone was kind, food is quick hot and ready.“

“We tried this place for lunch for the first time and we were pleasantly surprised. My wife ordered the lunch special with vegetables and requested to have tufu added, and I ordered the lunch special with spicy eggplant and chicken. Portions were large and we shared both dishes. They were both delicious. Lunch special came with a choice of soup, an egg roll, choice of rice, entree, and a fortune cookie. Good value for the price. We go to the 24 Hour Fitness next door and have seen this place many times, but have not tried it until today. We will definitely be back. Service was great and there is plenty of free parking.“

“Kung Fu Kitchen in Walnut Creek exceeded my expectations with their exceptional service and genuine hospitality. Despite arriving near closing time, the staff warmly accommodated us and took our order with a friendly attitude. They even offered to let us pay next time when we realized we didn't have cash. The flavors and quality of the food were outstanding, showcasing their attention to detail and authentic taste. The cozy ambiance and tasteful decor added to the overall welcoming atmosphere. Kung Fu Kitchen is a hidden gem that deserves recognition for their remarkable service, delicious cuisine, and unforgettable dining experience.“
