“Really good Chinese BBQ place. All of the bread items we tried were flaky and tasty, highly recommend the brown sugar one. The skewers were all solid, and I appreciated that the beef had a more teriyaki-style flavor, because too much cumin starts to get a bit sameish. In that regard, you should consider getting an order of the lettuce leaves to use as a wrap for the skewers, it's a great palette cleanser and adds some nice texture.
Would love to go again, but it's a bit far from my house and Chinese BBQ isn't something you can do too frequently.“

“Food is really good. And also good value. It’s usually not busy but tonight between the walk in to go orders, third party app and walk ins they were slammed. A good neighborhood spot that can also do banquet style cuisine. I recommend this place especially when the weather turns and you need hot food that tastes great!“

“Found this little gem while on a layover at SFO and the food was amazing! I had the Curry Sliced Beef Ramen and it was probably the best I’ve had. The ordering technology threw me off but I got over it quickly, it is 2025. As far as atmosphere…..just a bunch of people quietly eating lunch. I only gave the service 2 stars because it is an online order and someone just deeply it off at the table. Would definitely recommend though.“

“This place has very tasty and authentic Hong Kong style food, even though it’s name makes you think it’s Vietnamese. In particular, the breakfast sets are a good deal. One of the sets that I like in particular includes a big bowl of rice porridge and rice rolls or steamed Chinese greens. If you pay one dollar more, you can get a Hong Kong style milk tea. All for around 13 or $14 dollars. You have to come before 11 AM. What I really like about the food here is that they don’t overwhelm the flavor with spices. Most dishes have very little or no salt and even the sugar is moderate in the Hong Kong milk tea. So basically this place seems very healthy. And if you need more soy sauce or salt or pepper or whatever you can add your own.“

“The manager made certain the restaurant was still open for us as we could not arrive until 10:00pm from our flight.We quickly selected our appetizer and main courses. The food was brought quickly. It was very tasty and served hot. The waiter was very nice and quite attentive. Great place! It is rare for a restaurant in an airport to be so good.“

“This is an interesting place, primarily known for their omakase (I think), but we came for the tsukemen. The tsukemen was tasty and presented with a dipping sauce warmer set up. I gotta say the egg was perfectly cooked, but I don't know if we really needed the bamboo shoots and mushrooms given the dipping setup.
The ambience is good and there is a unique water and condiment setup that makes it standout, although it also crowds the table a bit. Nevertheless, it's unique and adds to the charm of the place.
Service was great and we chatted a lot with the lady who was covering our table. She gave us a lot of background on the work they did to get the current menu in place and tweaks they are planning going forward.
Overall, this place was a refreshing change of pace. Tsukemen is not that common, the ambience is different, and the service was super engaging. I will definitely go back to check on the evolving menu. Highly recommended.“

“The staff was incredibly friendly and the overall atmosphere was really great. The food was absolutely amazing, we ended up ordering a lot of different things because everything looked so delicious, and we were absolutely right about it. Definitely a must-try place.“

“Relaxing and modern ambiance to the restaurant. Super friendly service for an enjoyable experience. Hidden gem outside the hustles of the downtown area of San Mateo. The dishes were fresh and well presented. Ordered the Tom Yun Shrimp noodles and Keema Curry Rice. Nice Japanese infusion of flavors and techniques on South East Asian regional dishes. Can get pretty busy during lunch rush. We got there at 1:45pm and beat the rush.“

“We’re so happy to have checked out this lovely place!
Family run with pride and care, delicious (!!!) food, super nice service and squeaky clean! Seriously, not a speck of dust to be found.
We were both impressed with the super juicy and tender chicken, shrimp (cooked to perfection) and beef, super flavorful fried rice and portion sizes 🤯🤯🤯 we’ll have leftover for a few days!
The folks working the place are so nice and take such great care of the cafe.
We’ll be back and we’ll bring friends and family!“

“Why has it taken me so long to write a review of Noelani's? I first encountered this little slice of island paradise because I joined an ukulele meet-up group that would play here together pre-COVID. Lots of selection of Hawaiian staples and favorites, always served up in generous portions. My favorite is the bar menu, which is also extensive and fun - haven't tasted them all (yet), but what a great value for the glass full of fun they pour. Live island music is always a treat and everybody is friendly.“

“Very good! Loved getting the peanuts and cabbage salad as we sat down.
The best:
- pork and chive dumplings
- spicy wontons
Good:
- ground pork and tofu golden soup
- bbq steam buns
Underwhelming:
- cucumber salad. Normally I love this dish, but the flavor of the sesame oil and garlic did not come through on the cucumber. It tasted like the cucumbers were plated immediately after being crushed and chopped instead of getting some salt and 5-10 minutes of rest.“

“Good food (we had the green papaya salad and the pad kee mao, both excellent). Had we known that the pad kee mao didn't come with tofu we would have asked for it, so next time we will, but that's nitpicking. Very fast service, noticeably so. Location great for those in San Mateo or Foster City (and this restaurant is much better in my mind than Sweet Basil, I'm sorry). The pad kee mao dish was huge and we had to take home half of each plate (we got two, next time one will be enough, but we took it home and plan to enjoy later)“

“All their yakitoris were seasoned well and I loved both the salted and soy options. You order through a QR code using your phone so you won't have any issues with flagging down a waitress whether you're seated on the first or second floors.“

“Earlier this week on Sunday, I was craving some Korean fried Chicken, which I never had before. I did a search on Google and came across Bonchon in San Mateo. The first experience I had, I was not happy with my order because it was not accurate. I ordered an 8 piece, but only received a 4 piece and because it’s through a 3rd party nothing could be done. I decided on Monday I would order this time directly from the restaurant. Everything worked out, and I have to tell you even though my order was not right the first time? This did not take away from the quality of the food. I ordered the drumsticks extra crunch? No sauce, and the first time I ordered with fried rice, both were excellent. The seasoning, it was rich with flavor, and I have absolutely no complaints. The second time on Monday I ordered the same chicken a 4 piece, the corn with the mayonnaise, cheese and red pepper flakes, with a side of steamed rice. Everything was just perfect. I’m not kidding you it’s taking everything in me to control myself from ordering more today, and it’s just Tuesday. It’s just that good! Whoever the chefs are, you can taste the love in their cooking, it’s not just thrown together. There is Love in their food, and know this because my Mom’s food is just the same. Every bite is good. I don’t say these things lightly when it comes to restaurants. There’s not too many that impress me like this. All I can say is keep the love in your food, and don’t change the quality even if you have a million customers, don’t change your food. 5/5 for me, it’s a must try if you love fried chicken or Korean food. I don’t have pictures this time, maybe next time if I can upload I will. The chicken is so crunchy that even when it’s cold it’s still good and crunchy and not soggy. That is when you know food is good, when it gets cold and it’s just as good. Thank you so much for listening.“

“I love the ramen, the only thing is that I was expecting a softer yolk in the egg, but i got a hard boiled instead, they overcooked the egg, but its okay...“

“I love Champa Garden. They serve authentic Lao (and Thai) food, including delicious papaya salad, larb (both of which you can get Lao or Thai style), and perfect sticky rice. The rice ball dish is also delectable! I'm looking forward to trying other dishes. And their prices are very reasonable!“

“I am usually not a brunch person, but I made an exception for Taste & Glory and was not disappointed. I tried their vegan breakfast and it was surprisingly flavorful and satisfying. the pancakes are a must. The homemade fruit spread with the pancakes is yumm ! My family ordered the huevos rancheros, fried chicken with eggs Benedict, and steak, and everything was delicious. The flavors really stand out.
It gets busy on weekends and they don’t take reservations, so plan accordingly. Their drinks are also worth trying, very unique and well crafted. Service is friendly, though it’s more of an efficient, lively spot than a place to linger for long conversations.“

“Good food. Note: they have a nigiri platter that can be choice of 7 pcs or omakase along with a roll. The portions are half the size of typical nigiri.
Chicken karage is very good, has good seasoning in the batter
Seafood ceviche was mainly shrimp.“

“A no-frills place for authentic comfort Chinese (and a few other non-Chinese but still Asian) dishes that is very convenient for those arriving late at SFO airport (they open past midnight). Walking distance to a few hotels or to a bus stop along El Camino Real, which passes several hotels in the area. I ordered the beef rib pho and fried oysters. I was satisfied with my meal and the beef rib was tender and flavorful. If ever I arrive in SF late at night on another trip, I won't hesitate to eat at this restaurant again.“

“Café Bunn Mi in South San Francisco is hands-down one of my favorite spots for comfort food!
Their garlic noodles are absolutely delicious full of flavor and perfectly cooked every time. I pay for extra noodles! I spoil myself like that all the time!
The imperial rolls and egg rolls are always crispy, fresh, and packed with goodness. For the imperial rolls I always pay for extra lettuce! They come with the vermicelli noodles and fish sauce!!!
Their fried chicken sandwich is another must-try: crunchy, juicy, and so satisfying.
And of course, you can’t forget the Thai iced tea sweet, creamy, and the perfect drink to tie it all together.
Great food, great service, and always consistent. Highly recommend!“

“Just tried this place for the first time. We got the aji inferno and the class 10 hunnids burger. These may be my favorite smash burgers in the city! The smash patties are cooked perfectly, and the 10 hunnids burger is reminiscent of old school sonic (IYKYK). The servings are very generous. We loved the loaded tots that were perfectly crispy and had loads of toppings.“

“Came here for the first time and I’m impressed! The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the beef teriyaki and it was cooked perfectly — tender, flavorful, and the sauce was spot on. The presentation was beautiful as well. My wife had the Sushi Salmon Paradise and loved every bite, and my father devoured the Megabite roll. We also had the tempura string beans with onions — crispy, light, and just downright delicious. This place is a welcome addition to the neighborhood — you’ve got to try it!“

“The peppercorn deep fried Dungeness crab was delicious. It was cooked just right. Meat was fresh, tender and tasty esp with the chopped garlic and peppercorns. The lightly breaded deep fried shell was perfectly seasoned, not too salty. Definitely will come again!“
