Young Can Wok Chinese Bistro

Cozy, family-owned Chinese restaurant located in old downtown Burlingame. The Mongolian beef and general chicken were both well-seasoned and perfectly cooked. Friendly and efficient service. Not a lot of street parking spots, but there are several parking lots within a 5-minute walk.

This place is consistently great. Excellent service, great prices, and large portions. I drive from San Francisco to dine here it is that good.

Calvin and team have been hard workers serving Burlingame for years. They are so flexible with your dietary needs, gluten free, low sodium, low fat etc. Just ask Calvin and he will remember. Disregard the negative comments, everyone has bad days but this is the best Chinese food in the area! Clean and delicious. That said, if you are looking for truly Cantonese food, go up Millbrae. This is healthy, potentially lower in oil place for Chinese food. Don’t go to hot Wok, this is so much better!!

* This place is perfect...if you don't like money or your taste buds
* young can wok but he can't chineese food
* have had better chineese in Hialeah.
* 3 soups 1 chicken dish 1vegtable dish no soy or hot chilli $100

Second time we have ordered here for take out. Awful. Awful. This is not Chinese food.

The best Chinese food in the Bay Area!

Fantastic! We ordered twice now the honey walnut prawns and mix vegetables. Fresh ingredients, flavorful veggies, definitely have our loyalty!!

Our friends visited this restaurant a year ago and when we came to San Francisco they wanted us to try it … we live in Utah so coming to San Francisco is a treat ……
We were not disappointed
It was delicious
So glad we met the owners and had a great meal
Totally would recommend!!!
We told them to come to SLC Utah to open a bistro

Best Chinese food we’ve had within 20 mile radius of Burlingame! And, I cook Chinese food at home 5-6 times/month after taking all of Chef Chu’s cooking classes years ago. I cook fabulous Chinese food, and have morphed many of Martin Yan’s and Chef Chu’s recipes on my own. I’m not Chinese either, but love the flavors & fresh vegetables.

We’ve hunted for a *GREAT* Chinese restaurant for years after our favorite, Mandarin Gourmet, closed in Palo Alto. Young Can Wok is it! Service was great, food was impeccable! We’ve tried and been moderately to completely disappointed with a slew of Chinese restaurants in San Mateo, Burlingame & Millbrae. Look no more: this one is absolutely fabulous!

Great service, warm atmosphere and DELICiOUS food,!. My family love to go there. One of the best restaurants I've ever been to!.

Finally!! Somewhere that serves both sesame and orange chicken. As soon as it showed up to my door, I knew this was the Chinese delivery spot. The chicken was crisp yet saucy and packed with flavor. The fried rice was done exactly how you want it done. Definitely will be exploring more of the menu!!

Poor customer service. The food wasn’t traditional. My noodles were very dry and tasted like ramen and cigarettes. Both my brother and I found a hair in our food.

Mt wife and I stop by for dinner. Family run business with great Chinese food. Excellent Service and hospitality. I recommend the orange peel chicken. Serving sizes are enough for 2 people. Parking is tough around the area. I strongly recommend to try it out if you are in the area.
