Food is great, not greasy, Service is okay. Love their stir-fry cabbage, simple and good. The grilled catfish is a bit bland, there is lacking of ingredients in the dish, lot of celery and a little bit of tofu skin and woodear.
Came for dinner and got lucky with a table opening up right when we got there so there was no wait but it was a full house! Ordering was through qr code. Things came out as they were ready. All the food was delicious. Some were definitely spicier than others but all the flavors were great!
The portions were very large!!! And the service in replenishing our water, getting our pay check, and packing our leftovers was so prompt! We did not have to wait too long as well.
The sizzling pot we ordered was really delish and the portion was large enough to serve 2 stomachs. But the line was pretty long that I believe we've been waiting for 1+ hours but that could be a sign that this restaurant is pretty delish and tasty!
Great, authentic Chinese food! We went on a weeknight and the place was bustling and there were a lot of people! The wait wasn't too bad, we waited for around 10 minutes. The food is authentic. I can taste the wok flavor. The service is decent as well. We ordered online from our phone after scanning the QR code. The food came shortly after. The house dish pork and pepper is 4/5 in my opinion. It was very good and delicious. I could eat three bowls of rice with the pork!
Comfort food galore! Dropped by for dinner with a friend ~6:50pm on a Friday. Parking was rough, but there are multiple parking lots around. Given dinner rush on a Friday night, there was a 30-minute wait prior to be seated. What we got: - Pork ear with Chili Oil ~ great starter. Always my go to! Very addictive with its soft crunch. slightly on the oily side, but reasonably garnished with cilantro to balance out. - House special sauté pork ~ presentation was on point! Served on a clay "stove", mini wok, and metal wok spatula, this was a great activity and feast all in one! Slightly on the spicy side from the peppers, but this dish was great! As the pork belly renders out on the heat, this dish does get on the greasier side. - Mapo tofu with minced beef ~ packed full of flavor! Great addition with rice! - Yang Chow fried rice ~ includes spam, egg, and vegetables (peas, corn, etc). A great base to pair with the other dishes. Also very solid as a standalone. - Garlic lettuce ~ a great addition to the table. I'm all for vegetables, especially when paired with garlic! All in all, a great place for a meal. Service was fast and efficient. Nestled in a small strip plaza, this place is very family-friendly. Highly recommend and will return to try other dishes!
Food arrived quickly. The stinky tofu was perfect; it was black, which I wasn't expecting. And it was also soaked in soup, when I normally expect it to be dry. Chicken and pork stomach soup came in a huge bowl, and I'm always a fan of pork stomach. Garlic veggies were delicious. The Hunan style beef was okay so I'd skip it next time.
Pretty solid, getting seated on a Friday was pretty quick. Ordering was easy through their QR code, and the food came out in a timely manner. All the dishes we got were great too! I've always been a huge fan of dry fried green beans and these didn't disappoint. The fried rice was flavorful too. And I really like the pork dish, I was hesitant about the texture of pork but it's soft and easy to eat. Would come back when I'm in the area to try the grilled catfish!
Food came out hot and service is fast The fried rice (non spicy) is really good The spicy veggie tofu was just ok.. the flavor is nothing special The spicy noodle was ok, the peanut is what makes it special
Came here on a weekend night with some family friends. Parking can be limited but you could park across the street next to downtown Sunnyvale. The food is expected to be spicy and it delivers. All the dishes came out fresh and pipping hot. The mapo tofu has the perfect amount of spicy and numbness, and the fish fillet is also very flavorful and spicy. I was surprised by how tasty the soup is, it has a lot of umami, would highly recommend if you are okay with pork stomach in it! The Chinese yam and the string beans are decent. However I did not like the braised pork, it was salty and lacking other flavors and the pork was hard ish (感觉有点老） The atmosphere and decorations inside is very warm and welcoming tho, and the servers are pretty nice and attentive.
Excellent Chinese! Overall delicious and great ambiance. It was a little more oily than I would have liked but definitely less than other places. We ordered the spicy grilled catfish, sautéed green beans, rice and some drinks. My friend recommended getting the herbal ice tea and it was perfect compliment to the spicy fish. Spicy grilled catfish: the right amount of spice for me. I would say it was medium spicy, enough to feel a burn but not too much you can't taste anything else. I have a medium spice tolerance so some people would say this was more mild spice level. I enjoyed the veggies in the dish and the sauce, although the sauce was a little oily. Also warning there are bones in the fish though not as many as I would have expected. Sautéed green beans with sausage: tasty. The green beans had the perfect texture, with some crunch yet still soft. The garlic added a lot of flavor. I didn't like the sausage, it was too chewy and gamey flavored for me. We got 2 bowls of rice for 3 people and all of this was more than enough food. The servings were quite large. Service: you order from an online menu after scanning a qr code from the table. They quickly came out with the food and everything was pretty efficient. They came around a lot for water refills but generally left us to ourselves which was nice. You have to ask for your check. Ambiance: very nice. Clean and spacious. Every table was filled while we were there but it didn't feel crowded at all. We'll be back to try some of the other dishes too!
Food 4.5 - house special sautéed lamb 5/5 - medium griddle w/ beef, mala 5/5 - large griddle w/ frog leg, fish, garlic, not spicy 4/5 - frog was a bit tough, fish was fried but flavor was good I like that their dishes are not oily which is rare to find. We had enough for 6 of us and left over for another meal for 2-3 people. Service 4/5 kept refilling our water Ambiance 3/5 small restaurant with spacious gaps between tables, bathrooms need to be updated and cleaned

Came here for dinner upon a recommendation. Dishes were quite unique. We ordered the following: *Sautéed String Beans with Chinese Sausage *Preserved Egg with Eggplant *Pickled Cabbage With Fish Fillet Soup 老坛酸菜鱼片 *House Special Sauteed Pork 招牌辣椒炒肉 Each of the above dishes was unique making the whole meal special. Very well done. Orders are done through a QR code and ordered through the phone. Interior is typical of Chinese restaurants, a tad shabby and old. Service is quick. Price is very reasonable. read more

30 min wait. Food quality good. Stinky tofu and pork intestine were highlights. Ordered extra spicy. Not too too spicy, just right. Great flavors overall. Only complaint is too much bell pepper filler. read more
Pretty solid! Good flavor and portion, but not too spicy like how I imagine Hunan cuisine to be. They did nail the spicy and pickled flavor on the Sautéed Pork w/ Bamboo Shoots as well as the chopped chilies with fish. I don't recommend the steamed pork belly, as it wasn't as flavorful or tender as other spots. Very smoky flavor though. Mapo Tofu is not authentic but still tasty. Can't go wrong with the glutinous rice cakes for dessert. Service was quick and friendly. Place itself had decent amount of seating. It's a great spot for family meals with super shareable dishes. read more

Yum. Spicy classic Hunan food that can be toned down to your tolerance level--assuming you can tolerate some spiciness. Either way, dishes made well with an abundance of various flavors packed into these classic Hunan dishes. With nice and quick service in this little little cozy restaurant, our dinner meal was quite enjoyable. We ordered plenty of food and left feeling full. I would recommend the eggplant with preserved egg dish, the green beans, and the fried fish. Apologies for not knowing the names as someone in our party took the liberty of ordering everything, but came out yummy. Would visit again! read more
It took me 2 visits to leave a review so here I go! This place is nothing short of tasty deliciousness. Once I put the order in the food was served immediately and fresh. Everything I ordered was so satisfying. The restaurant was clean and friendly with cheerful music and plenty of attention. The fried buns were a real treat. Also recommend the sour plum juice or the tea in a red can. If you're ever in Sunnyvale......! read more

This place offers many diffident types of dish and it tastes amazing. My favorite is the beef tongue sizzling pot. The serving is for 2 people with a very good price. I suggest to come in a avoid dinner time bc it could get very busy and long wait. read more
Hunan House is a fairly no frills restaurant, with plasticky tablecloths and little aesthetic sense in the decor. I had the boiled beef, which was among the best versions of the dish I've had, and the braised eggplant/pepper/alkali-preserved egg dish, which was also very tasty. Unfortunately, I recall the rice being a little hard and dry, and the restaurant is a little on the pricier side. Overall, I'd definitely go again. read more

當我們的妹妹難得回到 San Jose，我們便按照她的意願選擇了一家辣味食館。這家新開不久，我的媽媽曾經來過，因此在點菜時能給予我們一些指引。首先，前來這家餐廳的人需要直接前往後面的停車場停車。如果像我一樣傻傻地開到門口只有六個車位的「停車場」，將不得不花些功夫才能倒車出來。 雖然店面不大，但客人坐得滿滿的。幸運的是，等候時間不長，約10分鐘左右就可入座。我必須提到，店裡的工作人員態度很堅硬，但習慣了就好。至少在服務上是相當迅速的，雖然有時可能回答得不多。 我們四個人點了五道菜和一份湯。其中，有一份剁椒魚我忘了拍照，但味道一般。茄子皮蛋作為冷菜非常開胃，大家都推薦。豬肚雞湯味道鮮美，非常值得一試。花椰菜也是我吃過的最好吃的花椰菜之一。至於炒麵和梅干扣肉，我就不太推薦了。 最後，我妹妹結賬，所以我沒有看到帳單，但據說4個人加上稅和小費共計150美元。就五道菜和一份湯來說，價格還算合理。雖然我對湘菜沒有太大的興趣，而且我家附近還有一些不錯的湘菜餐廳，所以短期內可能不會特地前往這家店。不過，我建議住在附近且尚未來過的人來試試看。 read more
I've been to this location a while back, but looks like they changed name (and maybe menu?) so need to try again! Ordered the sauteed beef because that looked like a popular choice from Yelp, and also bean curd with chives. Both dishes were delicious! The level of spiciness is perfect on the beef dish, and even though I'm not a big fan of chives the dish very much worked together. The portion size was also decent, I took the leftover and make a few more lunch boxes with it. :) Will definitely come back for more cozy spicy food! read more
3.5 stars but rounding up to a 4 for this new Hunan restaurant in downtown Sunnyvale! Food was fantastic but we waited an extraordinarily long time for our takeout order to be ready, so I think there are still some kinks to be worked out. I placed an online order at 6:34PM on a Friday evening and it said it would be ready in 20-30 minutes. We arrived at the restaurant at around 7:05PM expecting our food to be ready but we ended up waiting until 7:27PM! Not sure if they just got a ton of business at the same time or what, but definitely be prepared for a long wait just in case. In terms of the food itself, we loved it! My boyfriend's family is from Hunan and he thought that the dishes we got were both authentic and delicious. Hunan style sauteed beef: This was a huge portion of food but know that it definitely has a kick to it from all the chili peppers. The flavor was amazing though and we had plenty for leftovers the following day. Preserved eggs with green pepper and eggplant: I personally love preserved eggs so this was my favorite dish, and I will absolutely be ordering this again in the future. The eggplant was cooked perfectly, and the green peppers (not spicy) were very flavorful and tasty. Pumpkin pancakes: This order came with 6 pancakes, and these are basically rice cakes in terms of texture but with a bit of a pumpkin flavor. I love anything with the texture of rice cakes or mochi, so this was the perfect dessert for me :) Overall would highly recommend this place if you're looking for good Hunan food! The restaurant is located right on the outskirts of downtown Sunnyvale, and there's plenty of parking in the lot behind the Aloft hotel next door. read more

Good hunan food. It's located in a small shopping center where parking may be limited. I ordered Garlic Lettuce, and Hunan Style Sautéed Pork. Both are very good but a little oily. I especially like the crunchy texture of the Garlic Lettuce! Yummy! Service is laid back. We ordered everything and paid the meal on our phone via a QR code. Very casual quick dining. read more
