tiny local hole-in-the wall Chinese restaurant, woman owner Cindy is there everyday, answering the phone, taking orders... Always pleasant & honest advice about the menu items ! She has kept her prices pretty low & quantity is generous & if you like gravy this is the place for you ! I've had many spills in my car w/takeout !Her tofu dishes are very good & fresh ! My favorite is the salt-pepper tofu : deep fried then stir fried w/onions & green onions !Plus she's flexible about adding/ subbing tofu in any dish ! !!!

This is a small eatery with limited seating. The food is ok. Cantonese cuisine that didn't have a truly authentic taste. The service is friendly the portion are also ok.Next time? Too many good options nearby.

I've been a regular customer for this restaurant for years, here is my genuine opinion on this Chinese restaurant. 1. The lady was very nice, she seems to have English as a second language but still she gave excellent service and we have had wonderful conversations even if her English isn't the best. 2. The food is absolutely wonderful, I normally order the Mongolian Lunch special and some tea and it comes out in 15 minutes most of the time, and even take out time is as short or even faster, but yet is the most satisfying meal I've had every time I get it. Everything is wonderfully handmade deliciousness3.the ambience is as expected for hole in the wall restaurants but the service lady is a wonderful conversationalist and I have a great experience every time I talk to her, and everything feel authentic to southern culture. Overall I heavily recommend the restaurant, this are some of the reasons I come nearly every week. The food is wonderfully authentic and delicious. The service is wonderful every time and is the highlight of my day.

844 Willow Ave Ste A8 Hercules, CA 94547Willow Garden Chinese Restaurant is located in the Willow Shopping Grand Ave Center, right next to the Willow Ave ramps for I-80. I was there after work on July 5. It was around 8:30pm, and I was told they close at 9pm. So I quickly looked over the menu. I decided to just order my favorites, and see how it turns out. I ordered to-go:- Wor Won Ton Soup- Beef Chow FunThe Wor Won Ton Soup was very good. It had 9-10 plump dumplings. Lots of meat, maybe 2 shrimps, and veggies. The broth was very rich and savory. The Beef Chow Fun, initially seemed very good. The beef and the noodles were soft and easy to eat. The flavor was perfect. But the bottom of the takeout tray had a layer of mushy noodles. It's like someone had scraped the wok. I have never experienced this before. I get that it's the end of the day, but mushy chow fun? Okay, maybe. The restaurant itself is a no-frills place. Maybe 5-6 tables and a service counter. The staff were nice. I understand it's the end of the day. But you're still open for business. Would I return? Yes! Menu has lots of good dishes, including claypots and salted fish chicken fried rice! I would have to eat here to give a better review. Easy to get to from I-80 freeway.Lots of parking in the plaza lot.

Friendly, fresh, inexpensive and made in only ten minutes. Combo plate was only $21 including tax and far too much food for one person.

This year I'm looking to try places near me that I haven't been to before and decided to come here after a failed attempt to go to the "hot and new" Salvadoran place in the plaza. Glad I did because I got a huge portion of delicious homestyle crispy pan fried noodles for $13.25. No frills- the plate was piping hot, noodles were crispy, and the sauce, veggies and proteins (chicken, shrimp and pork) were good too. There was so much I was able to save some for lunch the next day. There were a few customers that picked up to-go orders but overall it seemed like a slow Friday night for the owners (guessing it's a couple). Inside there are a few tables and a TV so maybe it's geared for a takeout spot. The lady working in the front was pleasant but seemed a bit bored as she browsed her phone. They offer forks right away (no chopsticks) when dining in. Surprised this is the vibe but perhaps there is just a lot of other competition in the plaza. Well at least I know where to get my fix for affordable tasty Chinese food nearby and don't have to worry about lines!

Stopped by today to have lunch, apparently our presence was not the opportune time for the women; sitting outside at the table. She took her time to come in and not greet us, but to blurt out: here or to go?....strike #1. She then slid 1 menu on the table, only to go back behind the counter to sit down, we order a plate that comes with soup or salad, once I inquired to the soup/salad. I was informed: he informed me No soup/ salad on Saturdays, but there is still a upcharge??.....Goodbye!!!, too many other choices nearby, you just lost another local. Staff should try walking next door to Ann's kitchen, maybe you can pick up on how to treat guest!!Triple check your bill, they try to overcharge you if you're not paying attention. The woman/ owner that's always there is RUDE!!...stay away from this place, several better options nearby.

Food was tasty and cooked well. Portions were good too, we went here as a group and we still have portions to bring home. Service was right on time on what they told us. Server was attentive and asks if we need something like another serving of water.Just be wary of big group, this place has limited space. Most of the people that we saw usually ordered to go.

A small family run business. The food is consistently great and ready quicker than you are ready to pick it up. The location is small, really set up for take out orders rather than a sit down dinner.
