An old Foster City establishment that has been taken over by new ownership and a change in the style of Chinese cooking. It was formerly Cantonese style. It is now a Twainess style. The interior has been updated and cleaned up significantly. The new owner is working hard to ensure his staff are accommodating and makes every effort to ensure his patrons are enjoying themsel ves. The pig shanks dish is very flavorful and tender. Much pricer than other items. All the dishes we had were very well prepared. This is a mid-level restaurant with tablecloth. The price range for most of the entrees are 22-25 dollars. A nice place to bring friends for A excellent Chinese meal. This place is also very quite, whereas most Chinese eatting places are noisy.

We recently moved to the area and love Chinese food so went to Joy to try for the first time. When we walked in the proprietor/ owner kept us waiting while he finished a phone call then when we asked about the menu he was abrupt and rude. He made us feel so unwelcome, we turned around and walked out. Would definitely not recommend Joy on Beach Park Blvd in Foster City.
First time eating here yesterday and was not disappointed. The food was delicious and the entrees were very well portioned for the price. We spent about $90. The restaurant was really busy but the service was on point. Sorry I didn't take pictures, we were too hungry. We had the Stinky Tofu, Dry Sautéed String Beans, Shrimp with Honey Glazed Walnuts, House Special Chicken with Basil, and steamed rice. My cousin thought the beans and chicken were a little salty but I didn't have that shared taste. We definitely will go there again, as the menu is quite large and I want to try other items. The Parking wasn't bad but it does fill up fast around dinner time. The only issue was the language barrier, we couldn't ask about certain food items because the waitress didn't understand English well but she was very friendly and provided great service.

Terrible experience. I ordered online and got a confirmation email. Went to pick up my order and not only did they not have my order, wouldn’t make it because it was close to closing. Didn’t apologize and made it seem like my fault when I ordered through their own website. How about you make an online ordering system that works if you’re going to include it on your website? Never coming here again.

The last time we went to this restaurant, we found a piece of metal wire in the food—likely from a cleaning tool. I informed the waitress, and she said she would show it to the owner. However, the owner never came to our table, though they did give us a 10% discount. We never went back after that.

Soooo good! My fav Taiwanese restaurant in the Bay Area. It’s authentic and the service was the best.
Must try - basil popcorn chicken (very pricey though); double the $ but same size in other restaurants - ma po stinky tofu - stir fry sliced tofu and pork
Love them so much!
