“Solid Chinese restaurant. The salt and pepper chicken wings were so good. The fry on the outside is just perfectly crunchy while the inside is piping, hot and juicy and perfect amount of salt and spice.
Definitely the star of the show here.
Service was quick and efficient the food came out really fast.“

“So today my family wanted pick up stix and I didn't want to get pickup stix due to the odd interaction I had last time I went in. I have been going to this location for years and have never had any issue besides the last visit. There is a cashier that is an older gentleman who refuses to give extra sauce and will literally go back and forth over a couple sauce packets. I am buying for 3 people and the 2 siracha that he said is already in the bag is not enough. I decided oh well it probably will not be a thing today, but unfortunately the same guy today did it again. I asked him what the issue was and he stated that the sauce is in the bag already. I asked do I need to pay for extra sauce and if so I will, he stated no I don't need to then finally agreed to give me sauce. I have never ran into this situation ever at any restraunt where when I am paying for the meal I have to argue and ask several times for a couple extra packets of sauce. It's wild and unprofessional to think you need to argue with a customer over 4 siracha packets.“

We ordered the creamy bun (hot creamy lightly sweet excellent) bbq pork bun (a little sweet for my taste but still really good fluffy delicious), scallion pancake (could have had more scallion but it was really crispy!), sezchuan chili oil wonton (lightly spicy and numbing really good wonton with the peanut!) the dandan noodles (very nutty delicious noodles) and the Xiao long bao (delicious hot and the ginger was fresh) Was really pleased about the scan to order at the table! Really fast service too. Came in on a rainy cold day, left warm full and happy. Would definitely come back!“

“On arrival there was no wait except the host had difficulty finding us a table, even though there were multiple empty tables. Food came out very quick, fresh, hot. Waitress was helpful - if you are a member online you get free refillable edamame. It was a little expensive but totally worth it!“

“So this is like a ghost kitchen. Sort of. It’s a place you can get food, and there’s people behind the scenes, but there’s no a person in sight. Everything is done on Grubhub/UberEats/Doordash.
First time in person is wild for me. Just show your details from your phone to a camera and the door opens with your food when the app says your food is ready.
But as far as a “classic cheeseburgers” go, it’s a smash burger. No edits allowed (as least from what I saw)
That is what I got. And I gotta be honest. It’s one of the best smashed burgers I’ve ever had. The burgers are THIN and have that crispy laced edges. The sauce is insane, and the bread is perfect. Onions and pickles as well. 10/10 would recommend to everyone. And it’s a local place too. Which I love. Since it’s not a giant chain.“

“My 2nd time dining in, (3rd if you count a delivery). Skewers are great not only in price but in quality and amount of meat. I didn't know they have a special on Saturday lamb skewer for $1.50 each! My friend her first time here she said 12/10 and she wants to come back. The scenery is beautiful and yes I said scenery, the vibes are great and staff is awesome!“

“This place never dissapoints! I love their stir fried sirloin steak and onions on a bed of salad. Also their birds nest combo chow mein is plenty and affordable. Duck Soup is amazing. Parking is a little tricky. But this hole in the wall eatery is phenominal! A must go destination.“

“Oh my gosh. I'm so glad I randomly decided to walk in here for lunch. The servings are enourmous, probably enough for 3 people. I only paid $12 for the almond chicken lunch special, and I had plenty to take home for later. Highly recommend trying this place out if you're in the area.“

“We were there in Christmas Day as a family tradition and it was great! Food was delicious. They were extremely busy but the employees worked hard to make sure we had plenty of drinks and appetizers. I counted 15+ to go orders while we were there and our food took maybe 15 minutes to come out. Super fresh and a great experience. The wings were amazing too!“

“We have eaten here multiple times and have never been disappointed. This time around we ordered 81. General Tao's Chicken, 37. Assorted Wonton Soup, and the 21. Egg Roll (4). My wife was feeling under the weather and the soup brightened her mood. She said it was exactly what she needed. The egg rolls were crisp and fresh. General Tao's Chicken was absolutely delicious. There are chilies in the dish. So, be aware if you are spice averse.
I highly recommend eating in person as well. It's a very nice restaurant and a great place to go for a midweek meal as well as special occasions.
Looking forward to trying other dishes on their extensive menu!“

“This place has been open for decades & is one of the best! Great lunch specials & always fresh food. Their wonton soup is a hit or miss, sometimes there’s not that many wontons, more broth than anything but it’s so delicious! Definitely recommend it!“

“Hole in the wall restaurant. Little hesitant to try to at first but it had good reviews, and I’m so glad I did. Best Chinese food I’ve ever had. Got the orange chicken in the lunch special and it was a perfect crunchy outside with chewy inside. Nice and hot temperature. 11/10. Had to write a review so more people know about this place.“

“Nostalgia, hits in the childhood
The food, ambience and price is perfect. This place actually cares about taste, texture and heigeine.the food sits right with me and doesnt hurt my stomach like other small chinese food places. As long as they continue to operate the way they do I WILL NEVER stop giving them my business. 10/10 the independently owned corner chinese food place ive been looking for.“

“Gone here a few times, their lunch specials are really good
Pictures is the BBQ pork, Crean cheese Wontons, and honey walnut shrimp.
On another occasion I tried their Broccoli beef and orange chicken
All of their dishes thus far have been great.
Everything is affordable and proportional to the ammount of food you get.
They are Cash Only though, but there is an ATM in the liquor store next door.
Staff has always been friendly, bathroom was clean“

Highly recommended!“

“Went to Bistro City to try their Salt-n-Pepper Wings. Unlike most places, they heavily spice the batter the wings are fried in. It was too spicy for my liking. I left the wings for my co-workers and they said the wings were really good. So if you like spicy, you will love the wings.
I also got some orange chicken. It was good, but nothing I would make a special trip to get.“

“Ying Li is an absolute gem! I can't get enough of their incredible Chinese food—it's simply delightful! The gizzard soup is a must-try, and the pineapple chicken in sweet-and-sour sauce is a flavor explosion. My partner is obsessed with the salt and pepper spicy shrimp—so good! The service is fantastic too; the friendly Chinese staff speaks fluent Spanish, which adds a unique touch. Plus, the restaurant is conveniently located by the border with plenty of parking. With such amazing food and prices that make you smile, I can’t wait to come back for more!“

“After eating here I can't help but ask, " where have you been all my life?"
The Oriental Cafe offers generous portions for generous prices and unless you've fasted the whole day you will be bringing home Leftovers.
The staff is friendly and efficient as they tend to the constant flow of customers that filled the humble establishment.
Some may take mark down this Cafe for its simplistic decor; but others, like myself, find it charming. And after trying their dishes, it only adds delight to find a nice whole in the wall that let's their dishes speak for themselves.
I recommend dining in because you will get a serving of their egg drop soup and it is absolutely worth trying. It's hearty flavor reminds you of the soup you wish you had on a cold day or when you're feeling under the weather.
This is an establishment that deserves its business and I am already planning on coming back and bringing more family to experience it themselves.“

“Needed a hole in the wall Chinese spot and I found it. Tracked them down from their second location in Grossmont Mall. Food is actually good. For San Diego, this is as good as you can get off Convoy. Classic family owned restaurant, looks like it’s been in business a while. Very kind and attentive with awesome food.“

“Good "Chinese" food here. I had the BBQ pork but I think I was expecting a different type of bbq flavor. The rice was good but somehow reminded me of stove-top- stuffing. The service was very friendly. If you're nearby, Great Happiness, is definitely worth the stop.P.S. Great Happiness only accepts cash.“

“5 stars
I used to come to Imperial Express all the time after college, and after all these years, it’s still just as amazing—if not even better. The orange chicken is next level—crispy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The service is always friendly and fast, just like I remembered. It’s a true hidden gem that stands the test of time. Bring cash, eat well, and leave happy. Highly recommend! Muy rico 🤘🏻🙏🏻gracias!“

“Says Chinese food but also has Thai food but a bunch of Vietnamese writing. Red curry is spicy. They included tail on for shrimp in the curry. Kung pao chicken was crispy and had a nice amount of heat. Pork and Chinese broccoli was good. Thai noodles with beef needs improvement and more beef. They didn’t include rice with my curry and wanted to charge $2.75 for some which is absurd. Parking lot in back“

“This restaurant used to be Zen Asian Bistro. Some of the items, such as the Taiwanese Beef noodle soup, is still on the new menu. We don't know if it's the same cooks.
The portions are on the small side. They were a little bland but that might be because we ordered unbreaded chicken and vegetables as our proteins. Seems like quality and fresh ingredients were used.
Service from the older gentleman was good. He was very nice and attentive to our group.“

“What a true hidden gem in the heart of San Ysidro near the border. Hands down one of the best Chinese food restaurants I ever had in the area and in town.YuJing Chinese Restaurant is the real deal when it comes to authentic Chinese food.
I have been here several times now and I never had one bad meal. The staff is very caring and polite to help you with any questions on the menu.
I highly recommend the salt and pepper chicken wings that also comes with fried rice. Also the Mongolian beef and fried rice lunch combo is a must to try.
If you are a vegetarian, meat lover or seafood lover you are in for a real treat. The food portions are very generous. No matter what you are craving you can't go wrong with your food selections.
You have a large private parking lot for easy access for parking. I look forward to coming back again soon.“

“Love this place for a quick bite. Chow mein is tasty, lots of veggies and the noodles have a nice chew to them. Love the veggie egg rolls. They have curry flavor to them. I've tried orange chicken, mushroom chicken, chicken curry, BBQ pork, and sweet and sour chicken. All were pretty good. I like that they don't overcook the chicken. It's always nice and moist and tender. The boba drinks are on my "to try" list.“
“Christmas Eve just called to see a time they closed and they were closing but still offered to make me a dinner. I really appreciated her kindness but I insisted they enjoy the holiday and didn’t have to stay longer just for me. I will call again to try there food when opened. Kindness matters“

“Hello world, I want to shout Elizabeth a 5 star server. She greeted everyone at the door with a warm smile. Additionally she offered a sample of an item that I had asked about and explained the reward program. The food was above average B+ the orange chicken and shrimp. The store was clean and inviting.“
