    Pork chop bento
    Michelle H.

    Food is okay. The seasonings of the pork chop and the sides were pretty good but the temperature of my food was lukewarm at best?! My pork chop didnt feel fresh because I took my bento to go, drove 10 mins, settled down to eat and it was already barely warm. It got stale very fast and the rice felt dry and also not hot (weird???). I think it wouldve tasted much better if it was actually heated through. Service was okay, not much to say because I didn't interact with the worker much. Theres a self order kiosk on the side that wasn't on at first. Store ambiance is homey and like a quick bites place, the interior looks identical to the store that was here before. Overall, I would give it another try but if the food is luke warm again, I probably would pass.

    Scallion pancakes- greasy but good
    Annie T.

    I was passing through with my daughter, and we were craving Chinese food for lunch. More Than Bento had a good variety of yummy dishes so we ordered a bento box with tofu (you don't get to choose your sides; they gave us a "mix of what was left", they said), scallion pancakes, and Sticky Rice Bowl with pork. The Sticky Rice Bowl was not what I expected. It was a bowl of rice balls stuffed with pork that was boiled in water. I had never eaten that before, but I love sticky rice, so I was excited to try something new. It was a 6 out of 10. The sticky rice tasted more like gummy flour dough, the pork filling was nicely salted, and the bowl of water was just displeasing to look at. Haha. My daughter enjoyed the fried tofu, and we both loved the scallion pancakes, albeit it was dripping with grease, but still delicious. Interior was clean and service was good. Parking is easy. The restaurant is located at a 2-story outdoor Ulferts strip mall. All in all, the meal hit the spot and we enjoyed it. If we are in the area next time, we would get the pancakes again and try their dumplings.

    God forbid you use the bathroom as a PAYING customer. Also only 1 napkin per customer don't think you're gonna get anything more! If I could give less than a star I would. Let's do better, this is why the place is empty. ;(

    pork belly bento
    Minh-Chau D.

    This was a good balanced lunch. A lot of food and it also comes with rice. There's a good variety of bento box options to choose from. I liked the cabbage a lot. The pork belly was also cooked well. The tofu and tomato and egg were okay. I like my tomato and eggs sweeter and cooked longer though (personal preference).

    Fried fish bento
    Sandra L.

    Good portions and absolutely loved their vegetable side dishes they include in their bento. Friendly and fast, would definitely come here next time.

    Went there for lunch with my parents who were visiting from Shanghai. We got the braised lotus, braised chicken legs, dumplings and turmeric chicken roll. My mum also specifically wanted the rice ball with pork and meat mooncake to see if it is authentic Shanghainese food. Everything tasted really good we really liked it. The lotus and chicken legs had a nice smoky flavor and the braised sauce went all the way into the food. It also has a little spicy to add the kick into it. Dumplings were also very good, with thin dumplings skin wrapping the juicy meat inside. The meat inside was surprisingly fresh and juicy. I wasn't sure what vegetable was in there but my parents liked it and said it tasted like the authentic ones. I will come back again. Tumeric chicken rolls were also really good. Chicken was tender and flavorful with the nice mixed scent of tumeric and Chinese wine. Meat was fresh and didn't taste dry at all!

    Wait for dinner on a weekday holiday was about 10 minutes. Ordering is done through QR code on the…read moretable. The truffle and mushroom rice tastes incredible! The Chinese sausage pieces sprinkled throughout added extra flavor too. The bowl is deep so there seemed to be roughly 5 cups of rice. Unfortunately the laksa shrimp fried rice was disappointing in comparison. It didn't have much flavor overall - better than plain rice but definitely needed more seasoning. The menu lists homemade laksa sauce as an ingredient but we didn't taste that, and the dish wasn't spicy at all either despite the 1 chili pepper rating. But it looked just like the menu picture so maybe the description is wrong. Fried chicken with tom yum sauce came with 6 pieces. Very juicy. We also enjoyed the herbal roasted prime steak with sausage rice. The delicious rice had the taste of fish sauce. Most of the short rib slices were soft and a few were slightly chewy but overall decent quality. Some of the fattier pieces of meat were still attached to the bone.

    An absolute delight and a great choice if you're a mushroom fan!…read more This place has been on my queue for a while to try out, and it really hit the spot. I came here on a Friday evening with my friend to grab dinner around 6:00 PM. The wait was around an hour, so be very prepared if you're coming during the dinner rush. This spot is located where the majority of the Asian restaurants are in Milpitas, so it's safe to say the parking can get a bit hectic and intense. The interior of the place is very bright, modern, and clean. There is a lot of seating for a small space, but the reason they are so busy has a lot to do with the number of people wanting to check this spot out. When you sit down, you scan their virtual menu via QR code and order there instead of through a server. You have the choice to order on one phone as a group or separately. Between my friend and me, we ordered a beef mint salad, fried tofu, confit mushrooms, and truffle mushroom rice. I will say that when we first got the fried tofu and confit mushrooms, we were quite surprised by the small portions compared to the price. That said, they were delicious, but skippable if you're trying to find the best bang for your buck. What I absolutely would recommend is their truffle mushroom fried rice. This might have been my best bite this month. It was so savory, the mushrooms hit perfectly, and the coating of butter on the rice was supreme. It was $28 for a bowl, but it was a good value to split between two people. Overall, this place had great, fast service (our food came out in under 10 minutes), a nice ambiance, and fresh, flavorful food.

    China Palace feels like a hidden gem for Chinese food, tucked in a busy plaza next to Milpitas…read moreSquare. My family went here last night and the food was delicious. We ordered the hot and sour soup, sweet and sour pork, and a mixed vegetable dish -- all of it came out to just about $50, which is a great deal for the quality. With how tasty everything was, I'm honestly surprised the place wasn't more crowded. It definitely deserves more attention. We'll be coming back for sure. I'm taking one star off because an older staff member was loudly yelling at a customer next to us, which made the atmosphere a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, the food and value were great.

TLDR: they double dip for tip under your nose by charging you extra without your knowledge They charged me automatically for dining with 3 for tip when I had already left a tip, demanded that every restaurant charges an auto tip even for a party of 1. They will automatically charge you a gratuity even for a party of 2 under your nose, they will not provide you an itemized receipt so they can sneak money out of you. Before you tip, check the ITEMIZED receipt so you're not tipping ontop of the extra tip they charge without your knowledge. Bad business practices for a place that actually tastes good, shame honestly.

I am a huge fan of the noodles here -- very wide, flat and chewy. They also do not skimp out on the amount of food that they give you. The portions here are HUGE! The service is also very quick and they make sure to seat you right away and bring your food out in a timely manner. I went when it was busy and I was very satisfied with the efficiency. Pork Wonton with Chili Sauce - 9/10. The dumpling were so juicy and the pork inside was very flavorful. The chili sauce added a nice kick of spice and was so savory. Braised Chicken with Flat Noodles - 8/10. The flat noodles were the best part of the dish and honestly it wasn't spicy! Numb Spicy beef flat Noodles - 10/10. This dish had a strong kick to it! It was spicy but the best part was that the spice did not overwhelm the flavor. The wide chewy noodles soak up every bit of the rich savory sauce making each bite so flavorful. They also have so many toppings other than the beef too which I liked.

    The noodles are amongst the better ones I have tried in recent years…read more We heard of this place from a friend who lives in Fremont, so we drove down to Milpitas to check this out. It is in the same plaza as the popular porridge place and New China Tofu (where they used to sell Stinky tofu - but that is for a different story). The place is roomy and clean, the service was decent, friendly enough but we had to ask for sharing bowls and spoons. The order is the usual QR code so you order online, but pay offline. They have plenty of selection, but since it was just the 2 of us, and based on the name, noodles should be must orders. We had a soupy version (hot and sour fish) and a dry version (spicy ground pork), with a side order of cold appetizer (shredded tofu skin salad). The cold appetizer was a bit salty, but the overall flavor was pretty good. We added more chili oil that is available on the table. There was a wait between the appetizer and the next dish, we finished the appetizer before the first noodle arrived. Hot & Hour Fish - we selected the hand-cut noodles. The noodles were thick with just the right amount of chewiness. The broth was amazing with just enough kick, not too spicy. The fish was tender and the tofu was wonderful. The only "veggie" was the pickled/perserved mustard greens. We really enjoyed this one. Dry/Stir spicy noodles with ground pork - we selected the thick flat noodles for this. The presentation was beautiful and we could smell the chili powder and it was wonderful. A bit oily, which i understand as we need the oil to get the sauce mixed and noodles do not all stick together. The kick for this dish is actually less than the fish noodles, and not too salty, which was great after the salty appetizer and the strong flavor of the fish noodles. We did not finish and had to bring them back home. And we know we will be back!

A waiter told me they don't take credit cards when I was trying to pay. I was like, okay, maybe I should have done more research before I went there. So I tried to talk to him to see if there's any other options, like Zelle or Venmo, or maybe I can go to a nearby ATM and get some cash. He ignored me and did not respond, and left. I walked around, was finally able to get a waitress who was willing to talk to me. I explained that I didn't know they only took cash and I wonder if I can pay through other ways. She pointed at the wall and told me "it says on the wall", sounding like blaming me for not getting cash ready. Yes, maybe I should have read all the signs on the wall, but I really don't enjoy being blamed when I did nothing wrong. Assuming credit cards as one of the payment methods is not my fault, just how the society works. Anyway, I was able to pay them via Venmo, but I did not enjoy the experience at all.
