Grandma's Kitchen

This place was surprisingly delicious! I've been pretty disappointed with Chinese restaurants in the bay but now I know where to look. Our group of 4 ordered stinky tofu, suan cai yu, and malaxiangguo and everything was good. I especially liked the black stinky tofu and the suan cai yu. Of course, prices are not cheap, but that's eating anywhere in the bay. We had plenty of leftovers as well so I consider this decently fair.We were the only ones in the restaurant at the time and they offered us free soymilk which I thought was kind, and it was refreshing!

Food (4/5)Great food but it is on the saltier side for some dishes. For our hungry party of three, we ordered the Fish Fillets with Tofu ($15.95), Grilled Cauliflower with Smoked Pork ($13.95), Stir-Fried Rice with Smoked Pork, Spicy Chicken (forgot the exact name, but in pinyin it's "La Zi Ji"). Fish Fillets with Tofu (5/5) was soft, yummy, and seasoned well (not salty). The Grilled Cauliflower (4/5) was also delicious, though I wished that they adjusted the seasoning to account for the saltiness of the smoked pork. The Stir-Fried Rice (5/5) had great "wok hei". The Spicy Chicken (4/5) was good though I would try something else next time.Price (5/5)Entrees range from $15-20, reasonable given the portion size.Wait Time (5/5)Came for a weekday dinner around 530pm and it was empty. It filled up a bit afterwards.Service (4/5)Service was good, they were fairly attentive. We were seated a little aways from the server area but they were managed to provide everything we needed for the most part. Also appreciated that they didn't check-in on us too much during dinner.Ambiance (4/5)No concerns, clean and well-it. There's lots of tables and seats available.Parking/Access (5/5)Parking lot in front. There's plenty of parking available nearby. Just down the street from the shopping plaza with Daiso, Marukai Market, etc.I'd definitely be back if I was in the area. This restaurant is more on the 4-stars side for me overall because some dishes were quite salty.

My husband and I are obsessed with the fish fillet and tofu & their Grandma's fried rice with smoked pork, and would order it via DD for delivery at least once a month. We noticed that their portions have reduced quite a bit since they first opened, but I guess with inflation they need to either increase their price or reduce their portion to stay competitive. Don't expect a lot, but expect quality and flavor :)

Tasty food, reasonable pricing, and very attentive staff. And there's never a wait when I go. This place is truly a hidden gem.

I went to Grandma's Kitchen for lunch on a weekend afternoon. The restaurant wasn't very crowded, so we were seated right away, and the service was fairly quick. We ordered three dishes. The first was a steamed tofu and fish dish, but it was rather bland and lacked the fresh flavor you'd expect from fish; we left about half of it uneaten. The second dish was a smashed eggplant with chili, which was quite oily. Guests are supposed to crush the ingredients in a clay pot themselves, but the pot was small and hard to work with. Finally, for dessert, we had glutinous rice balls in rice wine, which was actually very good--sweet but not overly so, and generously portioned.

Ok a few things to clear up right from the start...We went their website and clicked on Place Order Now. This takes you to the Beyond Menu site. We order and are told to pick up in 35 mins. When we picked it up, they have a hard time finding the order (eventually do), tell me not to order that way next time, and give me a card with a QR code to use next time. Umm, change your web site?The food was salty and seemed to have MSG. Other Yelpers claim you should put "special requests" like less salt, no msg, no peanuts, etc in the comments. Wish I'd seen that beforehand. Warning: I was thirsty for hours afterwards.On to the food...Deep fried chicken wings: spicy! And a gazillion peppers. Wings themselves were crunchy with a decent taste but too spicy for me.Mongolian Chicken: also spicy but not as bad. The chicken was kinda mushy -- maybe from the MSG. We found a small bone so at least we know it's real chicken.Kung Pao Chicken: you expect this to be spicy but it was actually less spicy than the Mongolian ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I like this dish the best. Napa Cabbage with Fried Tofu: messy and unremarkable. passPork fried rice: flakes rather than chunks of pork. Fried rice was good.We'll probably give this place another chance but it doesn't seem like our go to Chinese takeout.

Cute little mom & pop place in Cupertino. My 2 friends and I ordered 5 dishes and devoured 90% of the food.Stinky tofu. Yum my friend raved about this dish and I agree that it was pretty good. It was also comparable to the stinky tofu dishes in China. Didn't have the strong stinky tofu smell but definitely had the strong taste. It lingered on the palate. Highly recommendPickled vegetable fish stew. Very comforting dish and had to get rice. If you're a fan of pickled vegetable, you'll enjoy this.Fried shrimp was noms.My friends really enjoyed the lamb skewers. I don't eat meat but I did try the onions and it was perfectly marinated with cumin, red peppers, and peppercorns. Had a very satisfying numbing spice sensationTheir menu is extensive and would want to come back to try more things. Highly highly recommend a try.

Got griddled intestine, water boiled spicy fish, yuxiang pork. Staff also said they made fresh soy milk and it's BOGO and so you can drink on-site (they refilled for me when we left). Super friendly staff, food was a bit of a wait, sitting area had a few flies (restaurant also had zappers). Small parking area, food hit the spot. Friend was also in the wechat group where if you mentioned the promotion, there was 10% off. Can't wait to try more dishes next time!

Each dish is like a carefully composed symphony by the chef, with excellent color, aroma, taste, and shape. It's highly praised.

I've come here a few times with my family and we always order different dishes. Parking is easy. Sometimes the actual lot in front of the restaurant gets full, but there is a parking lot across the street that has plenty of spots. It's never super busy when we go, which is nice. Ordering is always very easy and food comes out fast and hot! I honestly can't remember the specific dishes we've ordered, but what I do remember is that everything is always so salty. "I need at least 3-4 cups of water and eat it with lots of rice" salty. It overpowers the flavors of the dishes. For that, I will have to say that this place is ok. It's not the best nor is it the worst.
