About Frannie Express - Chinese Food

Frannie Express - Chinese Food serves fresh, delicious food cooked and served buffet style, similar to restaurants in Oakland Chinatown. The menu includes options like mushroom chicken, fried fish, shrimp and vegetables with steamed rice, and a half n half with 2 entrees. Meals are super affordable and worth every penny, though some find the prices not clearly posted—for example, a half n half listed at $10.95 may ring up as $13.75. The food is tasty but uses msg, leaving some very thirsty afterwards. Portions are good for leftovers, tasting even better after refrigeration. The atmosphere is quiet and enjoyable. The staff can be friendly, kind, and funny, but service varies: one server is ready to take orders immediately, while another may seem not that friendly, impatient, or rude. The food is a great occasional treat, better than Panda Express, though some dishes taste alright but salty with too much sauce. For fast Chinese food, the price after tip can feel a bit pricey compared to other places.
