This place will always be my favorite Hunan restaurant in the East Bay. I've been here several times already and it hits every time!! I've dined solo and taken my family and friends here. It's that good. Super consistent in flavor. Street parking.
Must try:
- Eggplant with green beans
- Vine pepper fish
- Spicy fried chicken
- Lamb stir fry with chilis
I'm really going to miss it when I'm not longer living near by.
Lamb is good
There are lots of interesting dishes to try. Some old favorites, and some things that I was not familiar with. I can say what we did order was great. We did stray a little bit off typical dishes that we would normally eat. It was good to take a detour and discover a new food. There are some great vegetarian options in case anyone needs that.

Wojia Hunan Cuisine offers authentic and delicious Hunan food at reasonable prices. The restaurant is highly praised for its quality and value, making it a rare find in the Bay Area. The menu offers a variety of dishes, from jelly noodles and spare ribs with sticky rice to Hunan lamb and black fungus and cucumber salad. The portions are generous, and the service is excellent.
Customers praise the hot and sour soup, glutinous rice with brown sugar, and the farmer's fragrant and saliva chicken, which they describe as delicious in color and flavor. The savory 汤圆 is also recommended. While the restaurant may be a bit expensive, the extensive menu of regional Hunanese food and bits of others makes it a good choice for those seeking authentic Chinese cuisine.
The restaurant is popular among locals, and the staff are fluent in Mandarin. The menu is huge, and 90% of the food is spicy, but customers can request less spicy options. Wojia captures the communal spirit of Chinese cuisine with its large circular tables made for family-style dining, encouraging conversation and sharing.
The restaurant has become a classic stop for those who share a passion for fiery, flavor-packed dishes, with the mapo tofu being the crown jewel. The dish arrives bubbling in a cast iron cauldron, red like hell, topped with the unmistakable aroma of Sichuan peppercorns, proving that great food can be both powerful and tender.
