“We tried this restaurant for the 1st time last night. They definitely need another server, but our waitress hustled and was friendly and handle things with amazing speed. Big shout out to her. We tried about 6 different dishes and they came out hot! What an array of flavor and texture and reasonably priced. The singapore noodles were fantastic, the tofu was GREAT and I am not one for tofu. Honey walnut shrimp, green onion pancake and i cant remember the others. Too much to choose from. The atmosphere was so welcoming and friendly a great dinner spot if you are looking. Highly recommend!“

“After my friend took me here, I came back the very next day and bring my other friends. It's a hidden authentic chinese restaurant. Food is very good. Price is very fair or even on the cheaper side. Dish portion is big.. The parking is a little bit not easy during busy hours. Only one lady serves the tables. She was quite busy.
Very happy knowing this place and will be back.“

“Was visiting Cali for a couple of days and my cousin recommended I check out Malatown Express. You can really taste the flavor and freshness in the food. The entire restaurant was perfectly clean, and their attention to customer service was outstanding. Kevin, in particular, provided excellent customer service and attention, frequently checking on our table to make sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area!“

“The waiter greeted us right away and sat us down immediately. The food came really fast and there was a lot of options on the menu. The crab roe noodle was creamy. A lot more noodle than the pictures made it seems. The braised beef noodle was flavorful and had a lot of toppings. Portion sizes were good. Would come back again next time. The seating area had plenty of space. Free sides such as pickled radish and tofu skin. Had really good chinese drink options in their fridges as well. I like that they open until 10pm.“

“What a great find. We just flew in to San Francisco... took an exit because we were starving. Stumbled upon this gem. Great food... service was exceptional... really friendly people. I wish they were in Utah!
Their potstickers are unmatched!“
“We enjoyed the green peppercorn fish. It was pretty sour. If you order large they let you pick four additional side items like tofu, cabbage, mushrooms, or noodles. I wouldn't recommend that you get the barbecue as the barbecue meat didn't look the same as in the photos. I think Tai-Er, which is down the street, is better quality but this is a good place for a quick bite.“

“Has been the dumpling spot for us going on two years now. We come here about one a month-ish but LOVE this place. One time my boyfriend and I ate 50 soup dumplings between the two of us. It was amazing.
Another time, we were coming back from half Moon Bay and decided to give the frozen dumplings a try. The guy who’s always there (don’t know his name sorry!) gave us directions on how to do it and even gave us some paper to line the pan with so they wouldn’t stick. We super enjoyed them at home! On our visit to go pick up the frozen dumplings, we met a man there who says that he’s from Napa and stops by whenever he’s in the area. (Wow!)
Our faves are: Pork Soup dumplings, Pork chive, and Chicken Corn dumplings 🥟
Thank you for all the yummy dumplings!

“Came here for dinner and ordered the special for two. We were seated right away, which is always a great start. The service stood out—our hostess was incredibly friendly and attentive, checking in on us throughout the meal.
Food came out quickly. The soup wasn’t quite my personal style, but the entrees more than made up for it—everything tasted fresh, well-cooked, and flavorful, and the meat was especially tender.
Overall, a really pleasant experience with warm service and solid dishes. Would definitely come back!“

“I travelled from Riverside County to come eat at this restaurant and have heard such great reviews about it from my relatives and friends who live all the way in China! It was worth the drive and we will definitely be back again. Each dish is unique and they also have gluten free options as well as requested options. (My f5 year old is Gluten free).The bamboo and mushroom dish had a hint of sweetness with an undertone of spice, the Chong qing 🌶spicy chicken was mouth watering, along with the eggplant 🍆 dish, dry stir fried fish, and glass noodles with pork! I enjoyed every dish and my kids enjoyed their shrimp fried rice dish and greens as well. Our family is a foodie family and we love ❤️ traveling far and near to try dishes from around the world. The Chef came out and greeted us and was So kind. The staff was very attentive and friendly with our children. I would highly recommend this establishment. Thank you!! 🙏💕😁“

“Yan gon is a family own Burmese restaurant on broadway Burlingame. The owner and the entire staff were extremely friendly , attentive , courteous . helpful, and welcoming . Their dishes are delicious . I have tried their Burmese Style Curry Lamb , Singapore Street noodles, Deep fried Chicken Wings , and Wor Wonton Soup. All four dishes were delicious, but my favorite is the won ton soup . This soup is perfect , it's so healthy and brothy. The broth is so rich that left a long lasting mouthwatering and coating sensation lingering in my tongue. The wontons are so tasty , juicy , and flavorful with the right amount of , I believe was pork , ginger , garlic ,chopped onions , sugar, salt , pepper , and shrimps . . The shrimps were very tastey and fresh . It didn't have that strange scent of ammonia or fishy smell like spoiled shrimps . The restaurant is simple , bright , clean , casual ambience with ample seatings. I have been here many times and got seated right away. No wait . This restaurant is a must try if you have the craving for Burmese food or just want to try something new.“

“It was my first time visiting here, and I came with my friend. We both had the Wuhan noodles the lady working there recommended us, and it was so delicious! She was also very kind and helped us by explaining the way to eat it. The atmosphere was nice with a warm atmosphere and had mostly families dining in.“

“I came to Yuanbao mainly for the soup dumplings, and while I thought they were good, the beef noodle soup is where this place really shines. The noodles were incredibly fresh with the perfect texture, and the broth had so much depth and flavor. You can really tell that time and care went into cooking it. The beef was tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the broth and noodles.
The atmosphere is another highlight. The restaurant has a cozy, authentic feel that genuinely makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a restaurant somewhere in Asia. It’s a cute and comfortable spot that would be great for bringing the family or enjoying a casual meal with friends.
Another big plus: parking is super easy! There’s a free parking lot right out front, which makes stopping by especially convenient.
Overall, I’d definitely come back — especially for that beef noodle soup! If you’re visiting Yuanbao, don’t overlook it. 🍜🥟“

“I've come here many times now over the past year or so, and would highly recommend. The food is fresh and delicious, consistently high quality. Similar Chinese restaurants often make me feel a bit queasy after, I think because of the quality of the ingredients, but I've never had this issue here. Good price too.“

“Ordered a number of dishes, including the dan dan noodles and fried noodles. Both were great, but very surprised by how good the latter was! Also ordered the spicy oil dumplings (紅油抄手)and Chinese beef pancakes. Both were excellent! Also loved their soy milk!
Paid under 100 with tips and taxes included, excellent value for money!“

“A family run Hunan spot tucked by the Crystal Springs center, cooking the regional menu rather than the Americanized one. The Mongolian chicken and the curry beef are the orders, both under fifteen dollars. Note the hours, closed Saturdays and Sunday evenings only. Thank you for keeping the home style going. Five stars.“
“In the heart of downtown San Mateo, MY Dumpling has emerged as my preferred destination for exceptional culinary experiences at an affordable price. Having visited this establishment on three separate occasions, I can confidently assert that every aspect of the dining experience is exceptional.
The restaurant exudes a sense of cleanliness and orderliness. The food is served promptly, and the staff is exceptionally courteous and attentive. The original and spicy dumplings are particularly noteworthy, while the spicy wonton is a must-try. The salt and pepper fish is an exceptional dish that stands out as one of the best I have ever tasted. The garlic string beans complement the garlic noodles perfectly. The beef rolls are exquisite, and I find that the menu offers a wide variety of delectable options.
In conclusion, MY Dumpling consistently delivers on all fronts, making it a highly recommended establishment for food enthusiasts seeking quality and value.“
“Best experience ever. Like sitting in family's kitchen.
The food was excellent, service friendly and attentive but not overbearing.
You have to try them. It's also nice to go for a little walk through the shops before heading out.“

“PLEASE OPEN A LOCATION IN SF!!!!!
When I tell you that I love Prime BBQ, I am 100% serious. I always look forward to eating here and crave it constantly. Everything is always fresh and very well-seasoned and the staff is attentive. My favorites are the ribeye, enoki mushroom, and mochi bacon skewers. Everything is seriously so tasty at this restaurant. I am begging you guys to please open a location in SF!!“

“This is a good old Cantonese place. It has been my family go to back in the days. Now a day, they don't have that much business. We do stop by ever so often to get our OG food fixes in. Some of their servers is a bit rude, but don't mind them. This is just how they work.“

“This is a classic Hong Kong style cafe or “tea restaurant” (茶餐廳), a relative unique style of Chinese cuisine invented in Hong Kong by fusing western cafe and Chinese style cooking. If you ever want to find such an eatery in the San Francisco Bay Area without flying 8000 miles to Hong Kong, this is your place. The food, and especially the service are absolutely top notch. Perhaps even more precious is the community vibe the restaurant staff manage to create. From the moment you step into the restaurant to the moment you leave you will meet authentically courteous, efficient and caring service from Selena, Sunny, and others. The combination of a family restaurant and high quality cooking plus pleasant ambience will likely make this restaurant a highly desirable gathering place going forward for local residents, as well as visitors from afar, for the unique east-meet-west Hong Kong tea restaurant experience. A remarkable place for lunch, afternoon tea or dinner.“

“You go here for the food, not so much the atmosphere. I had the pan fried noodles with bean sprouts and soy sauce, as well as the egg tofu with pea sprouts.
Both were so yummy! Big portions, well-seasoned and skillfully cooked. Would def come again.“

“A place where, from the very first visit, you are welcomed and served as if you were already a regular customer; you can really sense that it’s a family-run business striving to offer quality at an affordable price. Everything was delicious, and I liked the complimentary nuts served as an appetizer. It’s the kind of food that feels truly comforting.“
“Bao Express is such a great addition to Park Place in San Mateo. The food tastes fresh, flavorful, and surprisingly authentic for a quick-service spot. I especially liked the dim sum options and how easy it was to try a variety of items without spending too much.
The ordering process is simple and efficient, and the food came out quickly while still tasting freshly made. The dim sum boxes are a really nice idea if you want a little bit of everything. The mapo tofu, mongolian beef, salt & pepper pork chop, and dumplings were standout dishes for me.
The restaurant itself is casual and clean, making it perfect for a quick lunch, takeout dinner, or satisfying a dim sum craving without driving far. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the San Mateo area.“

“First time trying Laka! I was really craving Hainan chicken, so I ordered half a roasted pork and half a Hainan chicken to go. Overall, the food was really good, and I’ll definitely be back! The gentleman who carved the roasted pork was also very kind, which I appreciated.
Just a heads-up for first-timers: the minimum order for roasted pork is half a pound, so you can’t order just a quarter pound. ( in case u try to order for 1 )
My only real complaint is the ginger sauce. For half a chicken, they only provided one container, which I felt wasn’t enough. When I asked for an extra one, I was told it would cost $1. Honestly, I think 50 cents would be more reasonable for a small container of sauce, especially when you’re already ordering a meal to go. I had also left a tip on my takeout order, so being charged another dollar for extra ginger sauce felt a little disappointing.
The food is delicious, and the service was kind for the butcher, the lady could have been more kinder but I wish they were a little more generous with the ginger sauce or included at least two containers with half a chicken. It’s a small detail, but it would make the takeout experience so much better! Total cost $32 takeout“

“If you are looking for that HK style but can't afford the airplane tixs or don't want to travel just to get it. This is the place for you. Came here on Sunday about 30 minutes after opening and 75% of the tables were full.
Their HK Milk tea is very strong and authentic. Not watered down at all. Comes with condensed milk already added. Just need to stir it.
We went for the beef stew noodle soup, Russian Borsch soup and baked pork chop over spaghetti.
Beef stew noodle soup - extremely tender and flavorful. The noodle had the right kind of snap and soup was very good.
Russian Borsch soup - was exactly how we remembered it. Excellent choice.
Baked pork chop over spaghetti- pork chop was meaty, tender, no fatty like a few other place. Great quality meat.
This is a definite place to save as a favorite to get your HK food and HK milk tea fix on.“

“This is probably our favorite Chinese place when we want spicy Chinese food. Everything is so good and always well worth the visit. It's nice to follow up with a cooling dessert when you're dining in too.
Our favorites:
Appetizer: Beef roll with mint
Sichuan/Hunan: Shredded cabbage with sliced pork: not too spicy, steamed pork with preserved vegetables
Dessert: Rose Ice Jelly with Litchi
We never get the Yunnan dishes because my family tends to eat Sichuan/Hunan but they use fancy porcini mushrooms in a lot of their dishes and I really want to try them next time!“

“Got the hand pulled noodle; wide and spicy. Noodles were perfect! Spicy is “American spicy” so not as hot as what you’d get in mainland China but flavor was good. I think it could have a bit more sesame tho
Solid dish. Good price overall. I want to try the lamb chops next time“

“Really enjoyed Little Chengdu. We had the spicy pot fish and Sichuan spicy beef, and the spicy, numbing flavor of the Sichuan cuisine was definitely on point. The spice level felt authentic rather than toned down.
The spicy pot fish was especially good. The fish was grilled before going into the pot, which gave it a really nice flavor, and the vegetables soaked up the broth and spices really well. The lotus root was probably my favorite part.
The Sichuan spicy beef leaned more toward that numbing mala heat, in a very good way. We also got the sour berry drink, which was refreshing and paired really well with all the spicy food.
Staff were friendly too. Would definitely come back when craving properly spicy Sichuan food.“

“Shanghainese cooking on East 3rd in San Mateo, small and family run. The pan fried pork buns are the order, and the spicy wontons and the dan dan noodles back them up. The chilled cucumber with chili oil is a good starter while you wait. Split hours, lunch until three then dinner from five, and closed Tuesdays. No alcohol. Thank you for the cooking. Five stars.“

“I think this is the best Chinese in Burlingame. Food is fantastic Services amazing and the owner is very welcoming. He checked a couple of times to make sure my food was good. Everything tasted good and made a couple of really good recommendations. I’d have the Mu Shu, pork with pancakes.“

“Wow this might have been the most affordable hot pot place of all time. Big selection of meats and veggies, but the sauce station is lacking my favorite condiments which lowkey threw off my bowl but that’s just personal preference.“
“I probably had the best plate of Panda Express for a delivery here!
I ordered closer to closing time so I didn’t expect much! To my delight, the greens were perfectly cooked and even after 40 minutes due to delivery, the honey walnut shrimp retained its slightly crispy and tender texture!
I think the proportions were generous and filling! It had been years since I indulged in some Panda Express and i thoroughly enjoyed my experience with this location!
I called to share the positive feedback so much appreciation for Kapil who’s killing it in the back, cooking all the food and Kin for getting the orders out on time and pick up the call!“

“Food is super fast, just like Hong Kong. The Portuguese fish baked rice is really good. They call it Lisbon fish rice here. We also ordered ox tongue spaghetti, the sauce is just okay, it was supposed to be tomato sauce but it was more like a gravy. I've had better of this one.
If you're craving Hong Kong food, this is a decent choice. There aren't that many on the peninsula.
The service is so fast that they were literally taking the plate out from under me while I was still trying to finish the last bite. At least they didn't pull the spoon out of my hand 😂“
