“Excellent noodles and sauces. I had the spicy numbing pork with thick noodles and it was delicious. Tried all my friend's food and it was great, I think I would get soup next time because the portion was very big and delicious. We also had the pleasure of looking back at the kitchen and seeing them hand pulling noodles in the middle of dinner.“

“Stopped by while driving through the area and wasn't familiar with the style of Chinese food or the terminology of the menu, but the woman at the counter explained which menu item was chow mein. Placed my customized order for chicken chow mein (they were out of pork) and used their restroom. I was delighted with the restroom because so many businesses are closing them to the public these days. Came out of the restroom and they were still cooking my dish! They apparently make most of their dishes to order instead of premaking the dishes and keeping them warm. When I got out to my car, the chow mein was so hot I burned my mouth a little bit! I've never had Chinese that fresh in my life! The seasoning was very good and not at all like what I am used to. If you are looking for traditional, boring Chinese food, you don't want to come here. However, if you are interested in fresh Chinese food that's doing it's own thing, give this place a try! The only regret I have is that the portions aren't bigger, because I could have eaten a lot more it was so good!“

“Here's my one millionth review. I freaking love this place. I can cook my own dan dan noodles, but I can't get my soup buns as delicious as theirs. So I come here and get both. With a side of their chili garlic sauce and szechuan sauce. It's my go to meal. I've been trying new restuarants lately but I always regret not going here for my tried and true good meal. Don't want Dan Dan....get their smoked bamboo and cured pork belly noodle dish. These folks flavors are the best. Eat inside for a chill experience and watch the fantastic cooking on the TV screen, or take to go and get impeccable service everytime. I've wasted some money this week on subpar food, but four hours later, I'm still thinking about these hands down, no contest, delicious dishes. And EVERYTIME someone is visiting me, I get them an order of the soup buns (best once you've let them cool down) and I've never had a single person disappointed by the delicious and often hot experience. THE BEST. The new dumpling place around the corner has a good chengdu noodle if you want vegetarian and they also have soup buns, but Special Noodle is still my fave.“

“Delicious noodles and more. Potstickers are also excellent. You can dial in the heat from zero to super hot. Friendly service. The noodles are hand made which takes four hours to make. Good prices too. Cuisine is from Northern China, near Beijing.“

“I enjoy this restaurant very much. The food is excellent and fresh. it’s served hot every time. The servers can speed up with taking orders but otherwise, they are o.k. The restaurant is ok. The seating is too close for me but I get it. There’s No parking. It’s excellent.“

“Alright.. I’ve gone to this place for 10 years. Now it’s reopened as An’s Canteen. I love Jian Bing and this was really the only place to get it near me. When I saw the new owner I was surprised - but once I saw him making the Jian Bing he was making it with such precision, it felt like Jiro Dreams of Jian Bing. The new cracker is better. It doesn’t get soggy.
A+, 10/10, even better than last version.“

“The food is ridiculously good. Like, flavors on point, not overly salty, everything light and tasty. Honestly this is hands down some of the best food in the area. And it’s really not expensive at all for the generous portions. I can’t wait to come back, such a great addition to the area. Definitely give it a try if you want what to me seemed like some of the most authentic Szechuan in the east bay.“

“Fantastic food in Oakland's Chinatown. Handmade noodles and expansive menu - there's something for everyone. Attentive service and food came out really fast.
Small seating area and expect at least a short wait on the weekends. Great for groups of 2-6 people.
Not the most kid friendly place, but they aren't discouraged.
Parking: Parking can be difficult to find directly on the street - give yourself a few extra minutes.“

“Really enjoyed our visit!
Maybe family run? They seem to speak Cantonese and Mandarin.
The herbal soups were good! We tried #8 and #11 chicken with ginseng. Both tasted healthy but I think I preferred #8 a little more. The soups are in the little cylindrical ceramic containers and make a good appetizer/side dish. Fun to get as a part of one of their special combos.
The special dim sum of garlic clams was tasty and pretty fresh. Excellent value for $6.50!
Enjoyed the sticky rice too - well balanced flavors and not overly salty.
The beef tendon with noodles was tender and had a good texture. A smidge salty for my taste but flavorful and a good size.
Fast & friendly service - there was a bit of confusion about how many soups we ordered but got it sorted out.
The bathroom seems to be upstairs so might be a challenge if there are mobility limitations.
Look forward to trying other dishes next time!“

“Quick delicious General spicy Chicken. Wonderful texture & super hot fresh food. Simple small business in Palos Verde strip mall. I will be back! Food was ready in 10 minutes or so! Not greasy. Quality chicken and for $17.52 I got a huge portion of chicken and a small rice. Lunch specials are $12.95-13.95 Monday-Friday. Thanks Kung Fu Kitchen!
Parking: Lots of free parking. I even charged my EV at the charging station in front of Rite Aid.“

“This is one of my two favorite Chinese places in the Bay Area. I've been going there for like 15 years, miss them a lot when I'm in DC working. It's a very affordable place, the lunch deluxe deal is unbeatable. They can also do dishes that are not in the menu for the connoisseurs like pak chit kai, the traditional steamed half hen with a tangy and tasty ginger garlic scallion condiment. It's no frills, but we are not here for a Michelin experience but to eat really delish Chinese Cantonese plates. And the owners are always really nice and they speak Spanish (at least some, and they are funny)“

“Getting Teochew noodles in the USA is like a godsend. this is the closets I can get of the Chinese Teochew style fishball/ Mince pork noodle . the fishball is really good and all the garnishing is the way I like it !noodle texture is just right and they have the correct condiments to mix the noodle ( which is the dry type I ordered) .. Overall best noodle I can get in the US of A besides the one I get back in Singapore“

“Very solid noodle spot in Alameda. The chicken wonton/noodle soup was flavorful/kid friendly, and we enjoyed the Taiwan beef noodle soup, zhajiang noodles, garlic cucumber salad and spicy wontons. I liked the chewy thick-cut “sharpened” noodles. I believe they have bbq skewers at dinner (we stopped in for lunch). We’re excited to try other noodle dishes and the Taiwanese braised pork & rice when we return!“

“My son recommended this place, and I’m sorry I waited so long! We ordered so much food they had to move us from a 2-top to a 4-top just to accommodate! We took a lot of leftovers, but there’s not one dish I would have removed from our order. Everything was felt, you could taste the various flavors of dumplings, the noodles were amazing and not “too saucy”, you could really taste the noodle. I HIGHLY recommend- and, the prices are incredible.“

“This place is hands down my favorite Chinese spot in Alameda. The owner and employees are friendly. The entrees are delicious and made quickly and the vegetables are always super fresh and plentiful! You get a lot of food for the price, so it's a great option to feed multiple people or if my partner and I order 2 (or sometimes three) entrees, we have several servings of leftovers to enjoy the next day. Love the place!“

“Aberdeen Cafe in Martinez is a hidden gem. The food is authentic and full of flavor, with a great variety of traditional Chinese dim sum dishes.
The service was friendly and efficient, making the experience enjoyable. Pricing is affordable, and the portions are generous. Whether you’re craving dim sum or a full meal, Aberdeen Cafe is a must-visit in Martinez.“

“We got the cold Sichuan spicy noodle, fried beef & Ho Fun, and pork soup dumplings with Thai tea. The food was amazing, definitely recommend getting a cold and hot dish, and the dumplings are very creamy and packed full of soup. The Thai tea could be stronger, but overall still 5 stars!“

“Decent food, very generous portions. Both quick serve as well as a-la cart options. Even if ordering ala cart, expect some pre-prepped cold items to be served straight from the display counters. Ambiance isn't much; better suited for a takeout.“

“Was looking for a place to eat on my birthday new years day, my stepbro picked it out, he said he ate there 20 yrs ago, I was reluctant as it looked outdated and empty,but I was surprised when the food came in quickly, the staff was friendly and the plates of food were huge! I kept asking my bro if he accidentally ordered family size, nope. We ordered egg rolls, 1 order must have had 10 pieces! Delicious spare ribs, wonton soup, honey walnut prawns (jumbo!) Mongolian beef, they gave us almond cookies instead of fortune, that was a nice change,there was so much food leftover to take home, I'll be going back, I don't know how they can afford to give so much for so little $, very reasonable.the only thing was the place was so cold, we were both freezing. no heat!“

“Uncle Chungs is the best. My family has been coming here since before I was born. Princess chicken and honey walnut prawns are a must. And if you like crispy noodles try your chow mein Hong Kong style.
Uncle Chungs is family owned and a staple if you are anywhere close.“

“I love Thanh Ky! I've been coming here 10+ years and counting. I love their special Hofun noodle with soup on the side🤤🍜 and the Cambodian noodle soup. The best and authentic Chinese/Vietnamese fusion restaurant in Town. Thanh Ky is definitely in my top 3 comfort spots and always satisfy my cravings! The employees are very hard-working and kind. I could eat here everyday
(Note: They are cash only. The closest ATM is at Jackson Liquor across the street)“

“David and his parents are the best. Get the Kung Pao Chicken, or the Singaporean Rice Noodles. Get extra of that hella good sauce they make, it’s addictive. On Wednesdays their fried chicken special is crazy good but you need to get there early because it’s a long line“

“I liked the food, the staff and service were great, atmosphere was good. They give you cold water about as soon as you enter today (100F day in October) so that was a nice touch.
The Dan Dan & Yibin noodles both had good flavor, I'd only dock them for how thin the noodles were. I def like a thicker noodle. Portions are on the small size but prices reflect that and I enjoy getting to order more items and try more things without investing $20 on one plate. So that was nice as well.“

“This is a bare bones, basic Chinese food place. My husband loves it. He always says that the portions are more than generous. He also doesn't get indigestion after eating their food which is a good thing. They no longer allow you to eat inside so it is only for delivery or carry out. The people who work there are super friendly and the prices are reasonable.“

“The food was great. I ordered the szechwan shrimp. It was so tasty and really filling. Portions were enough at good prices. Great atmosphere and nice hometown setting. The service was non-intrusive but they always knew when I would need something like a water refill. I will definitely come back when in the area.
Parking: One hour limit parking in back of restaurant.“
