Becky's Chinese restaurant has been a staple restaurant in the Rockridge area of Oakland for over 25 years. They have amazing lunch specials and family dinner specials at reasonable prices. I enjoyed a lovely lunch with my Mom and here's what we ordered: The Broccoli Beef lunch special, Kung Pao Chicken lunch special and chicken chow mein. Keep in mind that the Kung Pao Chicken was a little spicy so for those that can't take spice I might skip this dish. Everything was fresh and delicious. Each lunch special comes with soup and salad and each entrée comes with fresh steam rice. They offer lunch specials from 11:30 AM - 3:30 PM. Their white steamed rice is always cooked to perfection...not sure how they get it that way, but it is very good and fluffy. Becky herself sometimes takes our order and is so nice and accommodating. There were several takeout orders being processed throughout our meal. Another good sign of happy customers. The parking in this area can be challenging, but you can circle the block and you're sure to find a park nearby. The best part about going to Becky's is visiting the neighboring stores around the restaurant. There are consignment stores, bookstores, and a European market directly across the street called Rockridge Market Hall. I highly recommend bringing a group of girlfriends or your mom here and just enjoy the neighborhood, fun shopping and yummy Chinese food!

Fried rice , broccoli beef, and vegetable chow mein

Extremely Disappointing Experience We arrived at the restaurant at 8:45 PM, well before the posted closing time of 9:30 PM. At first, the ambiance was nice, and we were looking forward to enjoying our meal. However, the experience quickly went downhill once we felt the employees rushing us to leave. We were still eating when a busser approached us and, speaking in Spanish, told us to "go home." This was both unprofessional and inappropriate, especially since he assumed our language based on our ethnicity. He also mentioned that they "don't get paid overtime," which is not something a guest should ever be told. This ruined the dining experience completely--we couldn't enjoy our food. On top of that, the food itself was bland and stale. This was by far the worst treatment my family and I have ever received at a restaurant. We expected basic courtesy and quality, but instead, we were disrespected and rushed out.

Spicy Hunan Prawns so good
Nicole C.

I'd say stick to lunch and dim sum specials for the price and taste you won't be disappointed. Dim sum which at Beckys are basically small plates are such a good value, they even have Mongolian Beef. My hunan prawns were $14 before tax both items $23 after tax. Service is good here no complaints. Street parking free and paid is available.

6. Szechuan Beef

Order 3 of their lunch specials from DoorDash. I ordered Mongolian Beef, House Chow Mein, and Szechuan Beef. Sadly the to go lunches don't have the soup. All three were reasonably priced $12-$13. The food was good for the prices. All three were packed with a lot of rice and if I ordered again I could just order the chow mein not as a lunch specials the foot itself was nothing special but it did taste good. My only complaint was that both the Mongolian Beef and the Szechuan Beef were listed as hot and spicy and there was no spice at all.

Every dish was so delicious!!! I will always go back to this restaurant. Thank you Becky's for all your good food! Thank you!!!!
Janice Anne R.

This place is a Monday staple for me. Some of the best Asian food you can get in the temescal…read moredistrict. Service is always friendly with a smile and food comes out quick and hot! The place is large with ample seating for the whole family. My go to is the Mongolian beef when I'm solo but if you got the fam I would recommend getting the tang seu yuk.

Ambiance - 4/5 I've…read morebeen coming here for many years, and it looks like they've done some remodeling since some of my earlier visits. The place feels a little different now, and I also don't see the older lady and gentleman who I used to see here anymore. I love the new wall decorations. The interior looks like an older style resturant with the menu being on the top right when you walk into the resturant. There is also a pile of random stuff in the left corner when you walk in. Customer Service - 4/5 The service was good and everything came out smoothly. Nothing particularly stood out to me about the service this time, but I had a pleasant experience overall. Small note I didn't feel very welcomed when I walked into the restaurant. Food - 5/5 Dish Ordered: Jjamppong (Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup) - 5/5 What impressed me about the jjamppong was that every ingredient was treated right. Eating the squid by itself would've been delicious. Eating the shrimp by itself would've been delicious. But now you fuse everything together with the noodles and soup? Now that's one solid dish. The heat level was just right for me. I love spicy food, but I don't want the spice to overpower everything else. My tongue was still able to taste the seafood flavors coming through the soup, and that's important to me. The spice complemented the seafood instead of covering it up. Every ingredient felt like it contributed something to the final dish. I never had this dish in Korea. but if I had this guess. This would be it. Tangsuyuk (Sweet & Sour Fried Pork) - 5/5 They take this dish to another level. The pork was tender and fluffy with a slight crisp on the outside. That combination alone would've made it good, but the sauce is what really brought everything together. And when I say sauce, they don't just give you a little bit on the side. They give you a whole bowl of it. You can actually submerge your pork into the sauce and get an even coating of all that goodness. I've had many different sweet and sour pork sauces over the years, and this one hits differently. Honestly, this sauce could be its own dish. It's not a side piece. That's how much I enjoyed it. Pickled Radish - They also give you pickled radish, which I always love whenever I'm eating Korean food. That crunch adds another texture to the meal, but more importantly, it gives your palate a nice refresh between bites. Especially when you're eating something spicy like jjamppong and something rich like tangsuyuk, that refreshing bite of pickled radish fits perfectly. Additional Comment: I've been coming here many times over the years, and the quality has always been solid. Restaurants change. People change. Interiors get remodeled. I don't see the older lady and gentleman I remember seeing here anymore, but I'm glad the food has remained something I can come back to and enjoy. There's something special about having a restaurant you've eaten at for years and still being able to sit down, order your food, and think, "Yup, they still got it." Would I come back? Hells Yeah. I've already been coming back for years. The jjamppong delivers the seafood flavor and heat I'm looking for, and that tangsuyuk with the sauce is something I would be happy to come back just for these two dishes. I also love their black bean noodle (ZaZangMein)

Ming's seems like an establishment for dim sum in Oakland, and I am glad I finally got to try it…read moreout. The building itself is so unassuming, you'd never expect a great dim sum place to be here! Came on a Saturday mid-afternoon, and fortunately, did not wait too long for a table. My partner and I definitely ordered TOO much for just us two, but we wanted to try an assortment of things! The standouts were their rice noodle roll w/ crispy shrimp, siumai, and hargow. Their siumai and hargow were so plump and juicy! Usually they're tiny at dim sum spots. Everything else was good as well! We even took some home to our families. My parents really enjoyed their chicken feet too! Service was amazing and fast. They are so kind! I get why Ming's is people's fave.

Terrible place to go if you are a vegetarian. Non starter. The only options are plain noodles,…read moreplain rice, or plain veggies. I had to make do because I was with a group. I asked them to show me what was vegetarian and took special care to note that I cannot eat shellfish. They circled things in CHINESE, not in English, so I ended up ordering something that had shrimp in it!!! And then I told the guy and he would not refund it because he "told us in advance" even though he circled in Chinese and still allowed me to order it after I just told him I couldn't eat that. So annoying. How do you have that level of incompetence at a restaurant?

I stayed over the weekend in Oakland for outside lands. My brother recommended a noodle place…read morenearby his home since soup is on the menu. We arrived just at about dinner time and the waitress took our orders just 10 mins after seating. The dishes were served fast, tasted very savory and spicy. I am happily surprised how the stur fried green beans were so crispy and loaded with umami. I had a beef bowl noodle soup and the serving is enough for 2-3 people. I would visit again if i visit Oakland in the future.

After reading the Nosh Oct 8 2026 review of father (AndyRaskin) & son search for Chongqing noodles…read more& their rediscovered appearance on 11th street, I too felt compelled to sample the unique spiced up handmade noodles at Mr Lius Noodles So yesterday 10/13 , I gathered my son Joe & his mom Gio to have an early dinner there...(they close at 7:30) Joe just moved up from LA & is now next to lake Merrit right in their viicinity, We got there at 6 & the tiny place was packed Very promising! We got a roomy booth and between Joe & me (Gio allowed us to pick..Thanks G) we got in order of delivery ... #26 Fresh Wood Ear Fungus salad arguably our favorite dish... texturally amazing..fresh & chewy and garnished with spikes of red onion and red & green peppers with a subtle exotic vinegar dressing with a sneak-up-on-you taste of numbing Sichuan peppercorn spice, a first time dish. great! a 5! next #33, a salt & pepper squid.. hot & crispy tentacles & except for 1 piece (that was overfried & hard) were also great...a 4. Then we got the #1 Chongqing dry noodles & #3 , Zhajiang noodle, similar but with added ground pork As described in Nosh they had the numbing quality as well as a bit of chili heat and mysteriuos herbal components.. then Gio's fav was the sublime pork dumplings #18 in chicken broth.. a perfect refreshing change from the more aggresive noodles flavors.. a 5...finally we added a blistered dry fried string bean dish #29 for a color change and a veg a 4. will return with so many other options to try Yahoo! an important addition to this review...was the length (so long) & chewy quality of Mr Liu's noodles fantastic!!
