Complimentary
Julie S.

Checked out Apple Green Bistro with my husband. I did not know what to expect from the name. Did it expect the complimentary celery with peanut. Enjoyed all our dishes especially the seafood egg tofu. Good service and efficient.

Located in Cupertino Village, parking is plentiful but spots can be difficult to find during peak hours. The amniance was average/loud. Food came out quick. Flavor was good. The sauteed eggplants were so yummy. Overall, Apple Green Bistro is good. Service is quick and food is good.

stirfry green beans and eggplants
Yumei H.

My family and I dined here on a Thursday night and the plaza was extremely busy. We got seated right away and ordered through the qr code. Out of the three items we got, I would recommend the green bean and eggplant stirfry and the beef stirfry with green onions. The pork ribs were really bland and had a really strong porky taste. Overall, pretty fast service and decent chinese food!

I come here every once in a while, and it's also super solid for savory food, especially Sichuan flavors. The most recent time I came it was during Chinese new years and they had some bundles with less Sichuan flavors but it was still great (e.g. sweeter dishes). Was quite busy and packed when I went.

Grilled Eggplant with Meat on Sizzling Plate
Wei Y.

The food here tastes like homemade cooking, and the portions are pretty generous -- but everything is very greasy. Cold Noodle with Chicken - 5/5 Highly recommend this one! The noodles felt like they just came out of the fridge, super refreshing and perfect for a hot day. The chicken was tender and smooth. The sauce wasn't too spicy and had a nice hint of sweetness. Szechwan Style Shredded Potato - 2/5 Tastes just like something you'd get at home. It's sour and spicy, but very oily -- especially once it cools down. The greasiness really stands out. Grilled Eggplant with Meat on Sizzling Plate - 3/5 At first bite, it was great -- crispy outside, soft inside, and the meat was nicely seasoned. But once it cooled off, it just tasted way too greasy.

We always have a great experience at Apple Green Bistro. The service is fast and the food is consistently good. The fried fish is something we recommend if you're craving something crispy. We also ordered the potatoes with Sichuan chili oil and coriander. Small portion, but perfect as an appetizer and the flavors complemented each other nicely. We tried the fish soup as well, which came out still boiling. It had that classic numbing spice. Good flavor, though we couldn't finish it because of the intensity. Overall, solid food and great service every time!

Very good Chinese restaurant in Cupertino! Though as other reviewers have pointed out, the dishes tend to the more greasy side, that's exactly what makes this taste so good and authentic. We ordered a variety of dishes and all of the portion sizes were really good. The fish was definitely a must get - it is a tad bit spicy though!

Best Cupertino Chinese restaurant! I give it 5 starts. The food was just EXCELLENT The best Kung Pao Chicken I've tried, hands down. The cuisine is mandarins style. If you like spicy food, this is your place. This restaurant uses the scan QRcode system, which means you have to place your order using your phone. The outside does not look anything special to be honest, but the food! Oh my!!! The best. Ordered Items: 1.) Kung Pao Chicken 2.) Chinese Watercress 3.) side Steamed Rice 4.) Sprite (can) Total bill $39-$40 (without tip) With tip my total was $47 WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY

I wonder if we ordered all the wrong things. Everything was super greasy and gross. I got terrible heart burn from eating here. We were really excited about this place too. The decor is clean and bright. Qr to order. Staff was okay friendly.

Vegetable Tofu in Brown Sauce
Jay S.

To me, the best dish was the vegetable tofu in brown sauce, because it was flavorful enough to enjoy various kinds of flavors. The establishment is clearly a Chinese restaurant that many would visit on a random basis, as it is located amongst a lot of stores that have Chinese on their titles or related to Chinese culture in an outlet format in Cupertino. I thought the Kung Pao Chicken was pretty standard and was good enough to make myself full. The black mushroom with vegetables was unfortunately below my expectations as the mushrooms had strong flavor while the vegetables didn't have any, causing a flavor imbalance, while the dish itself didn't have enough juice or broth to allow some mushroom umami flavor to flavor up the vegetables. The sesame bread with green onion was pretty thick and I mostly used it to accompany my dishes instead of rice, and since it was flavorless itself, it worked out fine. However, if one was expecting it to taste like the scallion pancakes that are popular in China, then one could be disappointed. Since there were other Chinese restaurants around the area, if I make it around the area again, I would most likely try another spot instead.

Seafood Egg Tofu On Sizzling Plate
Jenny X.

I came here with my parents and it was a no-frills chill Chinese place! Good: - Quick place, the food came out minutes after we ordered! - I liked the seafood hot plate with tofu - The A choy dish was healthy tasting, not too oily - Dim place, quiet, and good for catchups Bad: - Not much service, takes a while to flag someone down Overall, it is a nice place for quick authentic Chinese food! Reasonable price wise as well.

Cauliflower with Pork in Hot Pot
Nancy L.

We used to come here at least every month before pandemic and just came back tonight. We had a great experience. Food 4/5 We had the following: - Cauliflower & pork hotpot 5/5 - mushrooms chicken 4/5 - beef with peppers and cilantro 4/5 - fish with tofu 4/5 - spicy cold noodles (free with cash purchase over $55) 4/5 (mostly noodles but tasty and free!) - beef chow fun 4/5 - green beans 4/5 - walnut prawns 4/5 (prefer less sweet but a favorite) Above came out to be $160 for 8 of us. Very reasonably priced and satisfying with no leftovers and just enough. Service 4/5 Used link to order but requested menu to see bigger pictures. Service was adequate for Chinese restaurant. Ambiance 4/5 3 large tables and clean restaurant

Had a great experience prior to this with a friend so I wanted to bring my mom to try. My experience from the service however was a little uncomfortable. When I went with my mom there was no customers. The server seated us at the bench closest to the wall (the table was pushed into the bench against the wall so we had to move it.) Apparently a lot of the legs on some of the tables and benches are wobbly so they put things under to balance it. The servers told us to move it back under the table since we pushed the table out to sit into the bench. My mom is older and she has a hard time walking, she asked to switch to another table where the benches and tables were already spaced out properly because it is hard for her to bend down and move the things under the table legs. The server gave my mom an attitude and asked why two people couldn't fit into our current table.

The menu has quite a variety of options, including cold dishes, stir-fries, dry pot dishes, soups, rice/noodles, and desserts. Since I'm not great with spicy food, we went with dishes that were relatively mild this time: Stir-fry beef with Pancake Dry Pot Celtuce with Chinese Cured Pork Iron Pot Fish with Pickled Vegetables Cured Pork Fried Rice Brown Sugar Glutinous Rice Cakes The beef was really tender. We initially ate it with the pancakes, and later, when we still had quite a bit of beef left, we mixed it into the fried rice. Surprisingly, the combination worked really well! I also really enjoyed the dry pot celtuce with cured pork. The celtuce was crisp and refreshing, and its fresh crunch paired perfectly with the savory, salty cured pork. And of course, brown sugar glutinous rice cakes are a must-order for me whenever I have Sichuan cuisine. The chewy, sticky texture with that sweet brown sugar coating is always so satisfying - especially after a spicy meal!
