This seems to me the ideal Chinese takeout food counter, succeeding a couple pretty good predecessors in the same location. I find the food actually good, not just "good for a takeout food counter." I particularly cherish the salt and pepper fish and the sweet and sour pork. Furthermore, when you're making choices for a plate, you're not required to include a starch if you don't want to, whereas everywhere else it's a requirement if you don't want to go a la carte. read more

We were shopping in the complex when I noticed this place. It was lunch time and the place looked inviting so we decided to try them out. *USP: Panda Express style Chinese food take out, they offer salads as well in addition to the 2 or 3 entree plates. *Ambiance: bright and inviting. Seems to be family owned and run. They were working hard to keep the counters clean. *Food: one word- greasy. There was fat accumulated at the bottom of all the items we ordered, be it the fried rice or noodles or string beans. The fried rice was not flavored and was on the blander side. The initial few bites felt as if the rice needed to cook longer as well. String beans were sufficiently crunchy and fresh rather than being limp but were extremely greasy. Quantities are not super generous but decent enough for the price point. read more

I was a bit surprised to see how low this place was rated, but I get why after stopping by. The good was good but not great. The braised tofu was lukewarm, but I would've preferred it hot. The black bean sauce fish and salt & pepper fish were pretty tasty though, and you can't beat the value at ~$15 and some change for 4 items (I selected all protein) from the food bar. read more

This was my first time trying Eaping. I have passed by it a couple times before but finally had the time to go in. It is comparable to Panda Express since that's what more people are familiar with. They do plates/bowls at a reasonable price. Everything is made fresh and placed in front so you can choose what you want. The serving for the plate with two entrees and two sides was much larger than expected. My boyfriend who eats a lot even got full before finishing. I tried their new dish, the beef noodle soup. It was good but not the best I've had. However, I do like that they offer extra dishes like this and it didn't take long at all. read more

Good food. But watch out when ordering takeouts. The cover is very loose; and the fact the clerk stuffed food vertically into the brown bag only pushed food to one corner and some were pushed out of the box, directly laid into bag was disgusting !!! read more

Not sure why the reviews are so negative here compared to the Google reviews because I really liked the food! The food is very tasty, fresh, and not very oily! Its like a high quality, high end version of Panda Express. This has become my go-to for good quality, tasty, reasonable priced, quick Chinese food. Highly recommend it! read more

I got to say, this place is super good. I miss Lucky's that used to be here but same stuff just way more fresh and like the healthier options also. I for sure feel I got my moneys worth in comparison to what I would get back in Georgia. Service is cafeteria style. Get to choose what you want from the line. Get rice or noodles, various proteins, and then they have add ons. They also have other menu items they will cook in the back and come out fresh. All things were awesome today and when I got it for my dad a few days ago. Will for sure be back. read more

Found this place on TG2G, really enjoyed the food. Chow mein was tasty, sesame balls were good, and the protein options it came with were delicious. Portions were good and filling. It's similar to Chipotle/Panda Express, where the food is hot and ready to go, and you just pick what you want. I didn't realize it was in the same connecting plaza with 99 Ranch and Raleys. I would come back and try other foods if I am in the area. read more

Eaping Fresh Chinese - 3 Items Mix and Match Box - Chinese Near Me - Mountain View, California

This used to be Lucky Chinese Bistro, which we really enjoyed! Since the change to Eping Fresh Chinese, they have gone down hill. Service was just okay, felt like a school cafeteria. Nothing fancy. We purchased a Too Good To Go and received a 4 item plate. The plate consisted of sweet and sour pork, toufu and beef, a fish stir fry and "fried" rice. All of this food was bland, even the sweet and sour. The fish was mushy and definitely over cooked. The rice had no flavor at all. Even on Too Good this was not worth the price. We will not be back. read more

Eaping Fresh Chinese - 4 item plate - Chinese Near Me - Mountain View, California

This place used to be called Luckys family and I have frequent it for years but all of a sudden in the last three months every time we come in for some reason they have the bathroom is closed and they keep telling us a story after story story sometimes the key is lost sometimes the drains are not working sometimes it's under repair. This has been happening constantly for the last three months. Can anyone tell me how a business can be run without a functioning, restroom for customers and employees. This seriously seems to be a health hazard any comments out there? read more

This place has gone down ever since they remodeled. No more are the days of free hot and sour soup with each order. The new decor makes it look like an organic salad place but it's still the Chinese food we're all accustomed to seeing. New changes were made such as restaurant now using paper based containers yet still use plastic cover. Now for the service. Flat out terrible. I was waiting in line for 20 min while the old woman working behind the counter was doing slow-time multitasking. It was comical standing there while she took phone orders (yes someone is still ordering over the phone. This is 2025- ever heard of online ordering?), bussing the tables, arranging the online orders, barking out orders to the kitchen using their famous mic while trying to take care of folks like me waiting in line. Usually there's always a pair of little old ladies working together but the one today was working solo. This was around 4:35 pm. One person got disgusted with the wait and left but I felt some pity on this lady and decided to wait it out. If you're going to hire older ladies, make sure they also work in pairs because one working by themselves is just way too slow. Not acceptable. Also no apologies from the lady for making us wait that long. You guys changed everything, the name, the decor, but the service is lacking. read more

Eaping is a new Chinese restaurant and takeout spot in Mountain View, CA. They have a really good deal of 50% off at for their grand opening on 12/14. The prices are nice and affordable. I tried the mix and match plate with 4 items, starting at just $12.50. If you have a busy lifestyle, Eaping is going to be a lifesaver. I will definitely be a regular here. Healthy, authentic Chinese food is served here. There are classic items like orange chicken, honey walnut prawns, and general tso's, and the team is introducing authentic Chinese flavors. For the health conscious, their items have less starch and sugar than competitors like Panda Express. I tried the Mix and Match plate - scallion prawns, general tso's chicken, chow mein, and Mongolian beef, and the Chi forest peach drink. Honest review is that the flavors are very balanced, not too salty or sweet. The portions were just right and filled me up. read more

Whatever you do DONT get the won ton soup. Smallest portions and horrible ingredients. The won tons were left over pot stickers. The chicken had no flavor along with the broth. If you eat here I suggest getting something else but whatever you do don't waste your money like I do. read more

Great weekday lunch spot in Mountain View! Right next to 99 Ranch. I thought it was an Americanized Chinese place, but it's actually healthy and authentic -- perfect for both Asian and non-Asian coworkers. 3 items $10.95 or 4 items $12.95 -- fresh, not salty like Panda Express. Walnut shrimp, broccoli beef, and green beans are all delicious! Also love their soup dumpling combo ($9.95 with hot & sour soup) -- juicy, flavorful, and surprisingly authentic. Highly recommend! read more

This place used to be Lucky Chinese Bistro, but was recently sold. I had not eaten at LCB before so I cannot compare it to this new concept. However, the interior looks to have been remodeled since the sale. It is inviting, though I came here for take out. The $12.50 price for 4 items, before tax, is "a steal". One does not have to pick rice or noodles as one of the items. Everything I selected tasted good. Nothing outstanding mind you. However, you cannot beat that price for that great amount of food. Do note that some of the more premium items have price adders, similar to Panda. If you're a Too Good To Go patron, Eaping is still listed as Lucky Chinese Bistro. read more

Used to be Lucky Chinese Bistro until last month when they changed ownership. They renovated the dining area and the steam table counter. Fresh new look with lighter color tables which made the place look brighter, bigger and spacious. They still have the Walnut Prawn Salad that I just love. It's one of my favorite salads. Very good portion. They didn't skimp on the shrimp and the ingredients. Lots of batter fried shrimp. Sweet vinaigrette dressing with hint of sesame oil. Assorted greens, cucumber, cherry tomatoes with sprinkles of fried noodles to add more crisps. Reasonably priced for the size. Large for about $17. They have really good chicken salad too. I will need to go back and try their hot food to see if any changes. The lady at the counter seemed nicer too. She's been with the resto for years. read more

We've had our eye on this place for the last few weeks and finally stopped in. It's cafeteria-style so you can pick and choose what you want. They had a decent assortment, including a "salad bar" section. I'd say the food is a slight step above Panda. All of the food we tried was good and convenient for a quick lunch stop. I do wish the food had labels on it since some of the items looked similar, especially the chicken dishes. I don't think I'd go out of my way to go back here but glad I tried it! 3.5/5 stars read more

I used to really like this place as a kid in the 90s. I tried eating here recently and it was truly an awful experience in every sense. Unfortunately this place is a shell of itself. I'm actually impressed they've managed to stay in business in so long with how crappy the service and food have become. read more

I randomly saw a new "soft opening/grand opening" restaurant when I was in the area - checked it out on Yelp and noticed that the prices are pretty decent so we decided to give it a try! This is basically a Chinese version of Panda Express - they have a pre-set menu ("hearty bowls") but I think it's always nice to pick your own sides. There is no place that I can think of where you can get many of the menu items for the listed prices that Eaping offers. Definitely will come back again to try other items next time! read more

Used to be Lucky so I think change in ownership? Same set up though of Chinese food on steam beds. We came at Grand Opening Saturday when everything was 50% off. Food was good. I'd say a little better and less greasy than Panda. And prices I think are a little better. I would think great for a quick takeout and to get a quick bite. read more

First time checking this place out , as I was lucky enough to get a tgtg order. There is ample parking in the parking lot, so that is not an issue. When I went, it was quite empty. I appreciate the very open and sleek layout. The staff was kind, and efficient. In the assortment that I got, it included some orange chicken, black bean tofu, chow mein, and a mushroom/Chestnut/ tofu/snow pea dish. For all of the dishes, the flavor was good. This was a pleasant surprise, as the last two places I ordered from tgtg were lackluster to say the least. Certainly, if I was craving a quick Chinese takeout place and was in the area, I would happily return. read more

Very clean and vibrant restaurant! Huge portions of really delicious varied Chinese food. The black bean fish is my favorite. The kung pao chicken is not too spicy. The chow mein is chewy.

It isn't fancy, but the mix and match box is so worth it! In this economy, $13 (+tax) is enough for an ample meal that allows 4 choices; I don't even choose rice or noodles in these options. Service is quick and the process is smooth. Flavors are tasty and the shop is clean. I would get lunch or takeout here regularly if I lived closer. read more

I ordered the Cantonese Beef Chow Fun as it is their special. There are a lot of beef and the taste is good. It is not too greasy.

The restaurant is clean and the service is good. read more

I arrived at 12:10 for lunch and was the 3rd person in line. By the time I got up to order they ran out of nearly everything. The fried rice was just scraps and pieces left. The chow mein looked as if it sat for days. I wanted to order the honey walnut shrimp but the guy behind the counter packed it all for their online order or personal order. I also wanted the salt and pepper fish but again, they packed it all away for the person ahead of me. All the other options didn't look appetizing either. I miss luckys read more

My wife and I have been here a few times and really like it. Think Panda Express but better food and healthier too. Cheaper than most places to get Chinese food. I really like the Chow Mien there more than other places. We usually get the "pick four" box. You can pick three different meat dishes if you want. $12.50 and they don't take tips! My wife signed up for their rewards and it adds up quick. The sesame balls are really good! read more

Food is fine. Take out order is NEVER correct, literally NEVER. I am sick of paying for food we don't receive. I'm out, Eaping.

Delicious Chinese food. Fresh, nice variety of dishes, hearty portions and good prices. My review is long over due!

This is only for the Chinese chicken salad as have not tried other items. It seems that they have tried to have a similar recipe to Lucky's salad but unfortunately it misses the mark. Before it truly was the best Chinese salad I have ever had - and anytime I brought it to an event it became everyone else's favorite. I am not sure what ingredients they decided not to include or change, but I hope they consider getting back to the original recipe. Now it is typical of most Chinese restaurants and lost the special "sauce" that made it unique and delicious. Below I see response that it is the same recipe and it is for sure not the same - this was my fourth time trying it with the new ownership hoping that I just had a bad batch. But it is different and for me, feels like I lost a friend of 20 years! read more
