Two of us split an order of the Dandan noodles and 8-piece soup dumplings and left full and satisfied for just $24. My taste buds are dancing! So yummy.

I had the Prawns with Honey Gazed Walnuts. It was a large portion and delicious!

Szechuan restaurant in disguise! Good pho selection, but we were so excited to see a good selection of Szechuan food. They even made tofu with explosive pepper for us, off menu. Very sweet of them to accommodate us. Skip the fried spring rolls though - mediocre at best.

The chicken wings are more bread than wings. Feed them to the crows.

My kid loves the chicken pho so much that we have become regulars. The food is consistently delicious and the service is excellent. We always feel well taking care of.

First time at this place and we thought everything was delicious - dry fried green beans, pork dumplings and Dan Dan noodles. The service was quick and nice.

Pho Le has very good authentic Chinese recipes. Their noodles especially are very reminiscent of hand-pulled noodles even though they do not claim to make hand-pulled noodles. Their vegetable components are properly cooked; green beans are still al dente, and eggplant is traditionally stir-fried soft. While the menu is not inflated with multiple offerings with minimal variants a few rarely seen recipes are offered such as the beef tripe appetizer. While the menu does not mention the option, the stir- fried noodles may be ordered with cha siu. The menu is well executed. My spring rolls on this occasion were crunchy through several layers without soggy fillings suggesting they were not frozen. The broccoli in the beef with broccoli was minimally par-cooked, unlike many restaurants, so the final stir-frying made for a product which was a very pleasing rendition. The large serving sizes made for ample leftovers. The dining room was surprisingly pleasant, and the server made good efforts to be accommodating and responsive to questions. I'm looking forward to trying the dumplings and the pho soups. I have complete confidence in the Chinese side of the menu based on several visits.

My family told me that their Teo Chew ho fun was great, so it had been on my want-to-list for a while. I finally got to check it out. We were seated quickly, but something felt off when I saw the menu; it said SPICY SZECHUAN & PHO on the menu. I started feeling a bit skeptical. So I looked up some recent reviews and found out they had changed ownership and started serving a lot of Chinese dishes now.
We ordered their beef chow fun and Teo Chew noodle soup. The beef chow fun portion was huge, very fragrant, and delicious. I wish they could fry it for big longer, so the noodles could have a better texture.
The Teo Chew noodle soup was great too. It had a strong garlic flavor, which was a bit different from other places I've tried. Teo Chew noodles, I had from others, they usually put the fried garlic on the side, so you can add it yourself. Tasted still really good and came with lots of shrimps and shreddedpork and chicken.

Great price , service, and offerings. Noodles dumplings and rice bowls, Vietnamese and sichuan
Don't be confused by the name, this place has the best, authentic Chinese food in Berkeley.
The dry pot spicy bullfrog is tender and perfectly seasoned. The fish fillet with mustard is authentically spiced with great portions. The Sichuan peppercorn fish is fragrant but not too spicy. The eggplant with green beans is fresh and tasty. Mapo tofu is soft and appropriately spiced.

We ordered salt and pepper chicken wings for $25/plate and they gave us fried pieces of chicken nuggets which are probably the same as the orange chicken . We couldn’t complain because it was a take out order. Overall, we spent $135 and we didn’t like any of the 7 dishes. The dumpling skins were thick and had a funky sauce. The walnut prawns were salty. The broccoli and beef was decent but not great. We have routinely ordered takeout in the past and loved the food. But it appears there may be a new owner as the menus are a bit different. Overall, the food isn’t the same as it was in the past and the quality of the food has declined dramatically. I also question their integrity when they serve chicken nuggets as chicken wings for $25. See the attached photo.
