“I'm mostly gluten free so I was super happy to learn that everything on the menu including their Chocolate Chip Cookies was gluten free. My husband had a craving for Pho and I wanted a Salad so we decided to make the trek to Burlingame and try this place since I also wanted to visit Five Little Monkeys. First to arrive were the Chicken Pho which came out piping hot and the Banh Mi Chicken Sandwich. The Salmon Salad took longer to prepare. That was fine by me since it would be fresh. The Pho was good but not as good at a Pho restaurant but it satisfied the craving. My husband ate the whole thing and drank up the broth though he said it wasn't great. They gave too much hot sauce so that was a waste. My son liked his Banh Mi. He didn't have it with jalapenos though. The second half was eaten by my husband who said it was a nice sandwich with good bread. I liked my Salmon Salad though I wish I had not dumped the entire contents of dressing over my greens. It was too wet but delicious nonetheless. The Salmon was prepared really well and had a great flavor of lemongrass. Service was friendly. The restroom was clean but the toilet didn't flush well. You had to wait and flush the pee and toilet paper a few times.“
“Was looking for a new place to try with a friend today and stumbled upon Prime BBQ. Really nice joint in a quiet part of San Mateo, with some surprisingly tasty skewers at fair prices! Design of the restaurant is nice, and presentation of the food was great. My friend really liked the Chicken skewers, but I personally loved the lamb and beef skewers!! They also have proper bar inside for those who drink :) Would recommend checking out and having a fun night out“
“I love this place. Every time I come here they are so friendly. And their food is truly the best. A fusion of Thai, and Chinese cuisine. My favorite dish is the butter garlic crab with french fries. If you order it with a side of garlic noodles it's truly amazing. Their spicy Fried rice has chicken and shrimp in it and is actually very original in taste. Stephanie and Allie have always treated me well. This place is a gathering point of this particular community and most importantly, it's open very late. When everyone else is closed, this is the place you go to for gourmet food when you don't want to have a slice of pizza or fast food. I have met so many good acquaintances here. And this is where I bring guests that are flying in from out of town first. They are right next to the airport......“
“From the service, to wait time, to food. This place is top notch. Best dumplings I’ve had in the Bay Area and yes I have tried a lot. I’m not getting paid for this review although I wish I was. Really good dumplings, try them out and get the chili “

“Don't know what to eat, but want a quick and delicious meal?Paik's Noodle is such a solid option. Food is good. Portions are generous. My favorite would have to be their classic Jajangmyeon/Black Bean Noodle. The noodles are nice and QQ. The sauce is well seasoned and flavorful. It has a unique flavor from the fried black bean paste. Generous sauce portion too. I always have leftovers and add it on a bed of hot rice the next day. Love that they give you a side of pickled radish as a palate cleanser. Their jjampong and tangsuyuk is pretty good too.Staff are nice. Food comes out pretty quickly. Only thing to keep in mind is that the food court can get really busy during peak times making it hard to find a seat. Overall, 4/5.“
“Stunning meal, a restaurant that really suited the whole family and left us with leftovers for tomorrow's dinner to feed the family as well! Moreover, the service once we were seated was incredibly quick, it did take a while for our order to be taken, however, once put through the food arrived surprisingly quickly. The restaurant was very busy the day we went, showing the popularity among locals (and ourselves!). Recommend if you are in the area and have a hankering for asian cuisine.Kid-friendliness: Lots of children at the restaurant with families and they had high chairs available. A very warm and welcoming atmosphere.“
“Ordered hot and spicy pork noodles - delicious, tasty but not at all spicy. Despite no heat, taste was very good - noodles were perfectly cooked, veggies were bursting with crunch and taste and pork was done well too and did I mention not spicy!! I also ordered the shrimp pork dumplings- spectacularly fresh! The place was packed on the night I dined in - indicative of its popularity! Only regret is that I didn’t have a bigger crowd with me to sample more of the menu!“
“De.Lish.Us. Worth the wait for sure. Want sure how to eat it since they brought me a giant spoon, so used it to mix it up then used my sticks. Was super hot (temperature) but tasted great! I'll be back. (Can we turn the heat up inside, though?)“
“Usually get the banh mi sandwiches here that are very good with delicious bread and generous fillings. The price is more than usual for banh mi, but that’s the Ave for you. Strangely due to it being a Vietnamese cafe, they have a lot of Japanese curry dishes here as well.“
