Best Chinese Restaurants in San Mateo

It’s a fun spot with tasty food at a moderately premium price. There is better Chinese food to be had in San Francisco, but the vibe here makes it worth the occasional trip. We had the chrysanthemum salad, which was very tasty and fresh though I didn’t much care for the dressing. It seemed a little bland to me. We had the xiao long bao, which I usually love. These were very tasty, but nothing special. The fat noodles were great. The sauce was a little sweet to my taste. The winner for me was the tofu clay pot with minced pork. Wonderfully spicy and full of interesting flavors, offset by the creamy creamy tofu. Really beautifully prepared.

Delightful presentation, friendly chef and great service. A wonderful dining experience! Will definitely book again.

These drinks are made to perfection. Served beautifully

Fifteen of us were warmly welcomed for lunch at two tables. With a vast menu, the gluten-free person and the vegetarian at our table were satisfied. The food was brought quickly and overall was very flavorful. I enjoyed the fish with veggies. The salt & pepper tofu was crispier than I’ve had but tasty. Overall, everyone enjoyed the afternoon.

This is a genuine Chinese restaurant and you can see and feel the warmth and attention from the owners. Most other customers were Chinese, and we felt welcome. The Peking duck was excellent and the portions huge. Very good value for money. Just come hungry and do not expect Americanized Chinese food.
