Overall I wasn't terribly impressed with the 'yellow braised chicken.' It lacked depth of flavor and mostly tasted like soy sauce. The egg drop soup was terribly bland. The best part of the meal was the cucumber salad with wood ear mushrooms. Food came out fast, but there wasn't much in terms of service.

It was pretty busy for a Sunday lunch but we were able to grab a table pretty quickly. The portions and price are pretty good. The Braised dishes were delicious, flavorful and melt in your mouth texture! Our egg soup was a little cold, the sides were alright. Might just order a la carte next time. But will definitely come back for the braised pots!

My party of 5 came by on a Sunday lunch with no wait. Service is straightforward with ordering via QR code. Food came out fairly quickly. I ordered the yellow braised chicken combo (boneless). For the combo, it includes rice, bowl of soup (I chose egg drop), and a cold dish (I chose mixed seaweed). The chicken itself was pretty good, I liked the sauce on it. I think the combo is pretty worth it because the cold dish portion was very generous and it's nice getting a bowl of rice and bowl of soup with it too. Food wasn't mindblowing but it's reliable if you want a cozy hot meal.

First off- the positives. The restaurant was clean and pretty empty when we arrived on Sunday evening for dinner. We had a party of three and had our pick of tables - there were maybe 2-4 other parties in the restaurant around 7 pm. We had just gone on a longish bike ride - and were definitely excited for food. There is a QR code on the table that you have to scan to order- unfortunately the app to order requests a lot of information and also requires your phone number and verification. The staff were incredibly slow given how empty the restaurant was. One member in our party had trouble ordering on the app. We also had a very long wait when we asked for to go boxes for our leftovers and when we asked to pay the check. In fact, my friend ended up eating the rest of his food because it took so long to get a box for leftovers. I ordered the boneless yellow braised chicken rice mild- the chicken came with skin on and jalapeños and a side bowl of rice. The food was simple and tasty. Overall, I would only go back if I were in the area and had a lot of time to wait/ wasn't in a hurry. The food was tasty and hearty and came out relatively quickly. The service was slow and we saw multiple staff members waiting around when we were trying to pay our check so we could leave and bike home before it got too dark. We tried requesting wait staff through the app, since they didn't come over when we waved- but that was also not successful. And after waiting for 10+ minutes we were able to get the check to pay. The food was good and I wouldn't be opposed to getting food or eating here again. I just wouldn't come here if I were short on time or in a rush. We were able to pay for Our items separately, since we each placed our order online- so that was nice and kept things simple within our group.

Simple but solid. The yellow braised chicken has a wonderful sauce flavor, and goes really well with the rice and seaweed salad. The seaweed soup is lightly flavored so helps to break up the richness from the chicken and sauce. Food comes out pretty quickly after you order via a QR code. Service is very polite! Simple tables and chairs inside.

Finally got to try this spot! Lunch date with hubs. Fast service. Yellow braised chicken or was it pork: 4/5 tasty strong ginger flavor. Liked the side pickled veggies and soup too. Sauerkraut beef noodle soup: 5/5 very tasty too! A little sour and very flavorful broth. We will be back!

beef brisket with rice and extra spicy
Kimberly D.

DX Chicken Braise is one of my go-to spots. I first stumbled upon this place while looking for something to eat near the Tesla chargers, and it instantly became a favorite. I love their chicken and rice and their beef and rice, but my absolute favorite is the beef brisket with rice. I always get it extra spicy and add the bamboo. It is so good every time. The broccoli with garlic is also amazing and has become a must-order for me. The food is consistently flavorful, comforting, and satisfying. I often get takeout, and the food stays hot even an hour later when I get home. The staff is nice, the place is clean, and the vibe is casual. I come here so often because the food is reliable and always hits the spot. Highly recommend.

Boneless chicken with cold shredded potato
Lindsay C.

Reminds me of home cooked food. I got the braised boneless chicken because I got kids and don't have the luxury of enjoying bone in chicken. I ordered on the kiosk and choose the potato shreds, egg drop soup, and added quail eggs. Super satisfying and exactly what I was craving. When dining out, so many meals are overly salty, oily, or fried -- I'm glad there's a wholesome alternative that's not just another salad. The staff was friendly and helpful, and they even brought my food out to me while I waited outside.

Food was legit! Savory, well cooked and flavorfully seasoned. Spicy level can be adjusted to your liking. The yellow braised chicken over rice is a traditional northern Chinese dish originated in Shandong province. Who would've thought the combination of garlic, ginger and soya sauce produces such a beautiful yellow glossy color while it trumps the aromatic and rich taste. The chicken pot can be had either boneless or with bone. We ordered the boneless. It was very tender. The pig's trotter pot was braised slightly differently, but equally delicious. I wasn't impressed with the watered-down soup that had barely anything in there and tasted bland. Veggie side dish ok. It's a comfort food with a swagger. Linear seating arrangement with minimum decor. Clean environment. Friendly and courteous staff.

Passion Fruit Tea (Taken 9/7/2025)

This is a pretty good spot for fast service & decent food. The server was very attentive & when I went it, only half of the restaurant was filled with people. Here's what I got: Cold Mixed Beancurd & Cucumber & Woodear Mushroom: Amazing. I would come back just for this alone. It's crunchy, refreshing & full of flavor. Yellow Braised Chicken Combo (Boneless) w/ Egg soup & Cold Mixed Cut Cut Potato Shreds: The chicken was just ok, not dry, just wasn't flavorful enough. It was a bit underseasoned. The egg soup was extremely bland, but the Cold Mixed Cut Cut Potato Shreds were amazing. It had a great bite to it. Yellow Braised Beef Brisket Combo w/ Seaweed Soup & Cold Mixed Cut Potato Shreds: My favorite. The beef was flavorful & tender. The seaweed soup reminds me of what I had growing up, but a bit watered down. Passion Fruit Tea: Very watered down. I would not order this again. I would come back to try what else they have to offer.

Finally a spot where I can find some good braised meat! The chicken was so tender and the sauce was very well balanced. It was not too sweet or too salty. Noodles were just okay. We tried the pork bone soup and the tomato-based noodle soup, but both were a little too bland for my taste. We went at an odd time so it wasn't too busy, and the service was great. They even gave us some fruit tea on the house! The place is clean and simple. I'd definitely come back for the braised dishes!

Intestine With Chicken Combo
Lindsey T.

Generous portions and delicious food! Came here on a Friday for dinner and there was plenty of seating! The vibe feels very casual and the service was pretty fast in terms of seating us and serving the food. The ordering is done online, which is very convenient. We ordered the cucumber salad (10/10, very generous with the garlic) and the intestine chicken combo. It came with many sides (including soup, rice, and seaweed salad), which I enjoyed a lot! The portion was very large and I ended up sharing with someone, which was the perfect amount for us. In terms of flavor, I was very impressed! The quail eggs were also a very nice touch. I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try!

We ordered take out and my wife choked on a metal bag fastener that was carelessly left in the noodles. We will never order from here again.

The Egg Drop Soup is totally cold, and basically made from starch. The staff are not friendly at all.

Usually you might remember the experience, an entree, but the name will elude you. Home Eat is a memorable name, and while it isn't a phrase that we might use often, it feels like a perfect encapsulation of the feeling of eating here, even if I've never eaten like this in my home or in any. Known for the chicken wings, yes, but try more. You may eat like a king or queen with just a few orders, and I'm not exaggerating when I say this might be the best Chinese cuisine I've ever sampled. Great service too: fast and friendly.

I asked an inside table, not unreasonable considering I had four people and two physically restrained. He flat-out refused citing that's for five people even though tables were empty. The older female staff granted us right away. They need more training in how to communicate with customers and be accommodating and considerate. Later on this unprofessional amateur gave me a dissaproving look. Since when did the service become a dumpster fire?? Did he buy this place? Definitely taking ownership in a twisted manner. Remember Customers are always right in almost any circumstances. Your job is to make me happy. Food was still ok. There was no service yet they engerly expect you to tip them 18% for non existent service. What a lazy place.

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.

For today's kung pao chicken, I checked out Grandma's Kitchen. Right off the bat, they started me…read moreoff with miso soup. It was a bit of a weird choice for a Chinese spot, but a complimentary soup is always a nice touch. Getting into the dish, they were incredibly generous with the portions. There was a lot of chicken on the plate, and it was cooked exceptionally well, keeping the meat incredibly soft and tender. The dish also delivered some really nice wok hei, bringing out that signature smoky flavor I always look for, much like the great char I had at King Chuan. To top it off, the peanuts were fresh and crunchy rather than stale. Flavor-wise, the profile sits at about 65% sweet and 35% savory. There was very little heat to it, which was actually completely fine for this specific mix. Honestly, if they had just added a bit more salt, this could have easily been a perfect 5 out of 5 winner...but for now let's just say it's a 4.5. Verdict: Despite the weird miso soup combo, this is a phenomenal, tender, and smoky plate of KPC that was so good I actually had to go back two more times just to make sure I wasn't dreaming.

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!

I also like how the tables have partitions, so you have a bit more privacy. Both beef and lamb skewers are yummy and perfectly seasoned.

It comes in this addictive sesame chili oil sauce with peanuts and cilantro, and is the most perfect palate cleanser between your meats! The a choy and chives were also a group favorite, and I liked how fat the enoki bacon wraps were. Other places give you a small clump of enoki mushrooms, but they wrap a huge chunk of mushrooms with lots of bacon.
