*Vegetarian Foodie Review*Hidden gem alert! I'm so glad I finally discovered this place, thanks to a recommendation from my vegetarian friend who works in Redwood City!As a vegetarian craving Chinese food, I was blown away by the numerous options. The menu was overwhelming (in the best way possible!) and it took me a while to decide.Parking was a breeze, and the ambiance was exactly what I love about Chinese restaurants. I ordered the vegetarian chow mein with tofu, requesting it to be spicy and with less oil. It was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!What impressed me most was the clear distinction between veg and non-veg options, a rarity in Chinese restaurants. My 4-year-old enjoyed the mild egg fried rice with veggies, and I loved watching her devour it!And let's not forget the adorable touches - the lion figurine near the entrance is super cute!Service was super fast, which was a pleasant surprise!A must-visit for vegetarians and Chinese food lovers! Can't wait to come back and try more dishes.

I appreciate how there is an entire section on the menu for vegetarian and vegan options. the food is good, simple and well balanced in flavor. I can also order without onion or garlic. however it is a little on the pricier side judging from the simplicity of some of the dishes. the mock meats tend to be on the saltier side and the vegetables on the lighter side, which I likewhat i've tried and would order again:vegetarian xing jiang lambstir fried wintermelonstir fried potatoeshouse special sichuan cold noodles

I ordered kung pao vegetables for a delivered work lunch order. The order arrived in one of those waxy paper Chinese takeout boxes, and the sauce had leaked out of the container and soaked the utensils and fortune cookie that were in the plastic bag with it. When I opened the box the oil/sauce went up to around halfway. The food itself tasted okay, fairly flavorful although not very spicy like I would expect kung pao to be. The prices seem to be slightly lower than other restaurants but the portions are also not very big. It's nice that they offer vegetarian meat on the menu, but I have seen conflicting info online about whether it is vegan. I emailed them to ask about their vegan options and did not receive a response.

We heard a lot about this place so we decided to give it a try. The food is tasty and the service is good, fast, and friendly. We sat next to a group with 2 young kids who were very noisy and it looked like they had food fight! That family messed up the ambiance!The floor around the table was so messy and a few of the servers were sighing and looked at them with disdain. I would have done the same since the parents didn't seem to try to discipline the kids or at least try to teach some manners. Price wise it's relatively cheap for today's standard. 8-9'dishes for less than $200 incl taxes and tips.

It's our first visit to this restaurant. We were seated right away. We both had the lunch special - I had the orange chicken and my coworker had the Kung Pao shrimp. They come with a choice of fried rice or steamed rice in a separate bowl. The portion was quite generous that I had more than half to go. The food was tasty. I will certainly be back when craving for Chinese food at work.

I ordered the spring rolls and vegetarian chow mein noodles. While the flavors were decent (nothing extraordinary), the portion sizes were massive! Even after eating as much as I could, it felt like I barely made a dent in the noodles. I appreciated the dedicated vegetarian section on the menu, which offered a wide variety of dishes both with and without fake meat options. We visited on a quiet Wednesday evening and were seated right away, thanks to the restaurant being fairly empty. Overall, it's a solid spot for large portion sizes, but as someone who loves spice, I felt the food could use more flavor.

Quick edit: I've been back two times since posting and consistently great experience. Tried the Magic Chili Beef, a new favorite. Crunchy peppers add a nice texture but it's those little ones that bring the heat How have I not been here before when I'm in the area all the time?! If you've somehow missed this restaurant too, it's worth a visit. This spot will now be on heavy rotation for me.My favorite was General Zao's Prawns. Had a light breading on it and tangy sauce. The chow mein noodles had a good chewiness (homemade?) and were a close second. I was too hungry to mix up the noodles so you could see the meat and vegetables but they're there. Loved the food and I was surprised at the larger portions. They didn't compromise quality for quantity.Our service was quick and friendly. Another surprising delight was the sound levels inside. Not sure if I just got lucky and there weren't loud talkers or they've put thought into sound design. The music was just loud enough to hear it (not overbearing, which some folks mistake volume for vibe and over do it) so you could easily hear the folks you're sitting with without talking so loud that other tables are subject your conversation.

Went for Weekday Lunch SpecialFood - 5/5. Soup had good flavor being savory with hints of spice and a good level of sour. The chunky tofu pieces were good for texture. Double cooked pork was fantastic having a meaty texture with rich flavors from the wok hei. Seasoning was excellent, the vegetables made everything aromatic, and the bits of douchi acted like little flavor bombs. Fried rice was beautifully simple, having the stir-fried flavor with limited oil. Salad was simple with a sweet sesame dressing. Chow mein had good bite on the noodle but a little too much oil. The lack of any specific flavor in the chow mein made the heavy oil taste stand out more.Service - 4/5. Quick and efficient service. Some of the staff didn't seem to be able to communicate, but service was still rendered efficiently.Value - 5/5. The pork lunch combo, which includes the soup, salad, and fried rice along with the entree was only $11! Portions were gigantic with plenty of meat. The side of chow mein was only $2, with huge portions for such an affordable price. Amazing lunch special!Parking - Street (Metered)

A "Kung Pao Chicken" restaurant, not really a Sichuan one. When you see a lot of non Asian it should be obvious
