According to the roast duck restaurants in the Bay Area, this one is generally a success. The tableware is a little unclean. I asked the waiter to help change it and it is still not clean... The hygiene is really worrying. The beef burritos and pan-fried buns are not bad.

It was pretty good, prices are ok if you look at the menu: working my way through dishes each time.

Went with a group. Ordered a large bunch of dishes. Food seemed decent. The duck, fish, and seafood seemed on point. Nothing special enough to warrant another visit though.

Dined with a large group here. Impressed by from the taste of the food to service. The Peking duck is by far the best in the bay (order in advance). Definitely making it a regular stop.

One the best, higher-end Chinese restaurants in Palo Alto. They serve Chinese dishes from all over China, but impressively every dish tastes authentic and delicious. We had Peking duck and pork served with tissue paper thin crepes, cucumber slices and scallions (from China’s capital city), juicy pan fried pork buns and sweet and sour squirrel fish (from the east of China), spicy cabbage stir fry, pig intestines in spicy sauce and beef stir fry (from Sichuan and central China). They carved the duck in front of you and then used the duck carcass to make a very tasty tofu and Napa cabbage soup. The sweet mochi cake dessert was also some of the best I have had in the Bay Area. It’s a very popular restaurant and reservations are recommended. They have a couple of private dining rooms for large parties (at least 10 people). The prices on the higher end for Chinese food, but the taste and the quality of the food absolutely makes up for it.

Parking: Free street or garage parking on the next street

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly and kids usually love the buns and Peking duck

Amazing food. Everything was well presented and fresh quality. Loved the ambience.

Imperial Treasure is well-known for Peking Duck. Note - you need to order in advance. They do duck to perfection. There was plenty of duck to feed our group of 4. Lots of traditional options on the menu. And, in true Chinese form, we ordered a lot of food. No disappointments. Service was good as was the atmosphere. It was a little loud. Typical for a good Chinese restaurant. Cost is a little high, but reasonable. We had a great experience.

Really wonderful hidden gem, newly opened restaurant with “new Chinese style” (新中式）decor. I went with my boyfriend for dinner and the place was bustling with customers, the vibe was very Chinese yet hip/modern, and dishes were very authentic, especially the Sichuan style of preparation.

We had the Xiaolongbao and spicy cauliflower and pork belly clay pot, with sautéed vegetables. Service was polite and professional, highly recommend!

Bugs galore. Do not come to this restaurant. There are small bugs flying all over the food. The manager’s excuse is that it is a hot day. But it’s only 75 outside. I have never been to a restaurant with this much bugs and management not doing anything. I would leave a 0 star if pissible.

It was the first time I ate the most delicious Peking duck in San Francisco, USA. It was much better than Quanjude in Beijing. The red wine I ordered that day was 78 yuan (tax not included) and was delicious. The xiaolongbao was a bit worse and the wrapping at the top was too thick.
The filling has an average umami flavor, but there is still room for improvement. The spicy chicken is sweet and sour... Sweet and sour fish is also available, but the roast duck is the most recommended!
