“We went there for Thanksgiving for the first time. As a vegetarian, I can say I had many options, and what I chose was outstanding. My wife and daughter enjoyed their fish and meat dishes and I can honestly say there wasn’t one dish that wasn’t outstanding. I heartily recommend this place and I’m considering going back for Christmas if they’re open.“

“We met friends and 6 of us shared family style meal. My favorites were fried rice with salted fish and chicken, Buddha's delight and combination chow mein. The other items were fine but I like more sauce to noodles especially chow fun. Service was nice and efficient. The pork belly took a while to cook, I think I like a thinner cut but that is my preference. It was flavorful and had nice texture.“

“Street parking can be hard but we were lucky to find one not too far away.

It was busy on a Saturday evening with what seems like a lot of regulars. We were a party of 5 and they sat us at a table for 4 and added a chair on the end. Once we ordered, they moved us to a big table. We ordered way too much for 5 people. Ending up taking a lot home.

Everything was very good. Except the veggie was a little too tough/mature. And the mixed mushroom with egg tofu was not mixed mushroom but only one type of mushroom. The egg tofu was very good with the broccoli.

The bbq pork with chicken appetizer was good too. The bbq pork was so juicy and flavorful.

Portions here are very big and prices are reasonable.“

“I have tried many Chinese restaurants and this by far is one of my favorites. Not only do they give you huge portions unlike other Chinese restaurants. Their dishes are delicious they have so much flavor and I've never been let down once. For their spicy dishes I'd order extra spicy because they're regular spicy dishes aren't that spicy to me but I also love spicy food and I'm very tolerant to it. If you've never tried this place you have to try it literally it's one of the best Chinese restaurants in the Bay areanow next on my list is the Mongolian beef chowmane which I'm sure I won't be disappointed.“

“Great place for dim sum lunch. It's right on the Bay south of SFO, so you can watch planes landing (they seem to take off in the other direction.
They have many exotic dishes, but many popular ones, too. The service is OK, but most of the staff don't speak English. LOTS of parking!“

“TLDR: great food and beautiful location but pricey for dim sum

We really enjoyed all the food, the shrimp dumpling, siu mai, and other assorted dim sum were very enjoyable. The skin on the har gow was just right without being too sticky, the chicken feet were tender and not too spicy. The service was good and the view is pretty but the price is very expensive, $7.10 for a small dish with most dishes being medium at $8.10 for four pieces is a bit high.“

“I was skeptical about this place at first but I really wanted to have Chinese cuisine with my colleagues. So we planned a dinner and to my surprise, this place really satisfied my Chinese cravings. It is a bit different Chinese food that I had back home in fiji, but I am not complaining. This was really good. At reasonable prices too! Would go there again when my Chinese craving comes again! Totally recommend“

“Came for dinner with my husband as we stayed one night near the airport. My husband had the roasted duck noodle soup and I had the shredded duck meat stirred fry noodles. Both came very fast and in a very generous portions. The roasted duck noodle soup was delicious but my shredded duck meat stirred fry noodles was just ok. There’s only little shredded duck meat and tasted quite bland. The price was ok and very friendly staff. Not bad for a quick meal.“

“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.“

“We’ve been heading over to The Night Market for the past few years! The classics are all good, Hainan Chicken, Beef Chow Fun, minced Beef over rice. But if you want to try something unique to The Night Market try the Longan Crispy Pork over rice. I can’t imagine a dish that so uniquely represents the Asian American experience. Finish it off with a mango Sago!“
