[[HIGHLIGHT]]Amazing food, excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Everything was perfect! I highly recommend this place to everyone. read more

Parking is awful in this area. But they try to seat and serve you as quick as they can. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They don't rush you but wow it's busy in there so didn't want to overstay our meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their menu is so funny. There's steamed rice like five times on it Food: - house special fried rice: 5/5 can't go wrong with a good fried rice - stir-fried pork liver: 3/5 I don't like pork liver but I'm rating this only because I was able to eat it just fine so maybe for those that like the flavor would give it a higher rating and for those that don't maybe this is the one to try - sautéed mushrooms: 5/5 WOW the star of the meal for me and I don't typically like to eat much mushroom - braised pork belly: 5/5 so so good omg but def need some kind of carb to go with it read more

Pings Bistro - Chinese Near Me - Cupertino, California

The food tasted good and that's all the three starts are for. Now let's talk about the missing two stars. I went to this place to meet up with an old friend. The two of us ordered three dishes total went up to more than 70 dollars, and we ate everything (like every single grain of the rice), but we were not really very full, only semi-full. What I'm trying to say is, the price is relatively high for the portion. Definitely not the worst service, but just average. However, they still charged 18% mandatory tip for the lunch. I would love to tip more, 18% or even more than 18% if the service is good and of course tip 10-15% if the service is bad, but they just take that from your credit card leave you no options and I do not like that. Absolutely not going back again read more

My friend treated me to lunch here. We ordered three dishes, all of them were authentic Yunnan flavors (just visited Yunnan for two weeks, and hence the comment.) The prices are on the high side, but reasonable for the Cupertino area, I think. :-) The staff were friendly. They even recognized my friend as she is a regular, which made the experience feel warm and welcoming. read more

Delicious food and excellent service! We will definitely be back. Yunnan cuisine really masters the art of cooking mushrooms. read more

My husband and I have been wanting to check out Ping's Bistro.

Delicious food! We ordered too much food. Frog, fish soup, pork belly, braised beef, steamed egg, liver, pork mushroom dish, vegetables. The portions were big. A lot of their items are spicy or slightly spicy. Some of the items they said they can't take out the spice for you. The service was good, there's lots of servers all around. The food came out pretty fast too. It's hard to pick my favorite dish because all of them were so good. read more

***MANDATORY 18% service change*** Nice of them to inform you that there's no need to tip since it's already included prior to paying haha. ***immediately speaks Mandarin*** OVERALL: Ping's Bistro has rarely disappointed me. From their first location at Pacific Commons to three others and now this, their dishes are absolutely spectacular and unique (aka tastes AMAZING and the flavor profile is rarely experienced elsewhere). Yea, this place is the priciest out of all of them BUT seriously it's worth it. They are highly known for their smoked ham and mushroom fried rice but I can never see myself paying $28.99 for fried rice... ORDERED: Lemon grass fish - it's dry, crisp and simply amazing - layer of mixed spices and chili - provides 2 lime slices - almost like Thai lemon fish - moist filets (fish is cut in half so there are bones, fyi!) - some may find this to be salty and lots of rice is needed but I thought it was just right Chinese flowering cabbage - it's unique so may be an acquired taste - simply stir fried with lots of fresh crisp garlic and dried chilis (+oil, sesame oil, shoyu, etc) - no adjustments in spices was simply very mildly spicy Bowl of rice - their rice is somehow always absolutely well steamed... nice bite and nice chew SERVICE: Order via QR code provided on table (website can also be found online through googling their name). Payment via tablet. At least 3 different servers were seen walking around. Strange how they don't ask if you want hot tea or water as with other locations. Doesn't pour water since they already provide a pre-set "vase" of lemon mint water. However, it's nice how when you ask for hot water, they give you a teapot and don't charge you extra ***so bring your own tea leaves/bag haha*** AMBIANCE: [[HIGHLIGHT]]Casual dining with a sprinkle of upscale fine dining vibes (due to decor, plates and COST). Many here to hang with friends and have a conversation. A few lone diners who miss the taste of home, as well. Cycles/turnaround fairly quickly. Diners are typically young Chinese. Moderately loud with all conversations in Mandarin haha. Good for large groups as not possible to adjust the 18% service fee (it's the same for 1 person and 10+ individuals). Restrooms are crazy clean and they utilize all Trader Joe products (brownie points!!).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Located in a nearly deserted plaza. Has their own private parking lot...***HOWEVER IT IS slightly frustrating that each lot is separated by establishments; THEREFORE, watch where you are parking as you may be towed... THIS LOT IS EQUALLY STRANGE BEING CALLED AS "TAIWAN BISTRO"*** If you drive from a certain direction, the restaurant sign isn't obvious as it's not on the building itself. Would I come back? Heck yes. read more

Favorite dishes were the fried rice, the beef roll with mint and the beef with pickled mustard! Fried rice is flavorful and so much packed into every bite. The beef rolls with mint are refreshing and fragrant. The beef with pickled mustard is sour, gingery and paired so well with the bell peppers. Food tastes authentic and the spice is amazing. Must try if you like Szechuan spice. Best Chinese food I've had in the Bay Area so far. Would warn that if you are not used to this type of Chinese spice, or spiciness in general be aware. They can't make some of their dishes entirely no spice but only to lessen it. Came here on a Sunday evening at the end of long waitlist but the line moved quickly and we were seated in no time! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside the restaurant was packed, for good reason. Immediately could smell the delicious fragrances from the food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food came out quickly and we had a great experience. read more

Always find it funny to see that my favorite Chinese places have less than 4 stars on Yelp. I dont know who's giving this place 3 stars or less but y'all need to check your palate. Doesn't matter though b/c the Chinese people know its good and its always busy here :). Ping Bistro does Yunnan and Szechuan dishes and does both impeccably. Portions are generous and everything here ive had tastes delicious but also different from each other, which is my pet peeve for some of the Chinese chains that use the same seasoning packet for every soup or dish on their menu. Its wierd that Yelpers recommend the beef rolls cause they are one of the most meh items imo on the menu. Love the pork belly, the stir friend teo chow noodles is mindblowing, many of the dry pots and any of the pots and stir fries with mushrooms are highly recommended. Yunnan dishes are known for their mushrooms and everything is decently spicy so if you can't handle spice beware. I personally dont love the szechuan spice mix so prefer the Yunnan and other dishes vs the szechuan ones read more

This place always has a huge line! We ordered the Dai-style lemongrass grilled fish (傣味香茅烤鱼) -- the seasoning was incredible, super aromatic, and I ended up eating so much rice with it haha. The fish was really fresh and flavorful too. We also got the stir-fried mixed mushrooms (三种菌菇炒在一起) -- loved the wok hei, such a satisfying dish. The only miss for me was the lychee yangmei drink (荔枝杨梅饮料) -- sounded good but a bit disappointing Overall though, I definitely want to come back to try the white tiger palm stir-fried butter snail (白虎掌炝爆黄油螺片) and the mint beef (薄荷牛肉) next time! read more

The line was out the door at 5:40pm for weekend dinner. It took about 45 minutes from waitlist until the first dish arrived. As your party gets closer to being seated, they will take your order first so there is minimal wait time. The standout dish was the cauliflower with pork crackling. The smokiness from the slight char of the cauliflower and umami from the pork made this dish my absolute favorite. It was incredibly delicious that I could have finished the cauliflower by myself. The next standout dish was the lemongrass grilled whole fish. It was nice they were able to adjust the spiciness level to mild because the peppers infused in the marinade carry quite the kick. The beef roll with mint was a good cold appetizer that packed a nice garlic flavor. The pork belly with mushrooms was not my favorite as the pork belly wasn't fork tender. read more

Read the other reviews for food. Mine will solely be for info I wish businesses were upfront about. This is my fight against hidden restaurant fee-flation and for price transparency. price as of 3/7/26 Extra service charges or fees (other than tax and tip): yes, 18% default and mandatory service fee Tip lowest default: no "tip" due to service fee Allows bill split/itemize: N/A NOTE: 18% service fee wasn't apparent when walking in, but it was busy so maybe we missed the signs. when ordering through QR code, didn't see any mention of the service charge either until the end at order summary, which shows up as a line item on your bill when confirming your orders. oh, but they mention it at the bottom of the receipt once you pay lol also tax appears to be based on subtotal + service fee Fee transparency/fairness score: 1/5 read more

Delicious Yunnan restaurant serving exceptionally flavorful dishes! We stopped by Ping's Bistro on a Saturday around noon and were seated immediately with a party of five. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I liked how the restaurant is very spacious with a modern interior that creates a comfortable dining atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their food was packed with flavor and outstandingly good. We ordered their Beef Roll with Mint, Stir Fried Chinese Flowering Cabbage, Sauteed Beef with Pickled Mustard, Fried Rice with Ham and Seasonal Greens, and Signature Grilled Fish with Lemongrass. My favorite dishes were the beef rolls, fried rice, and to my surprise--the flowering cabbage. The cabbage was so flavorful, I've never had vegetables stir fried with such fresh umami flavors of crispy garlic and sesame oil-goodness. It also came with pork slices which paired well with the cabbage's flavor. Honestly, all the dishes were packed with its own unique balance of flavor, and I feel like you can't go wrong with any dish you see on their menu that you may think you would enjoy. Service was solid overall. They were very speedy and attentive throughout our meal. I'd say the biggest standout was still definitely their food, which was packed with authentic Yunnan flavors, making it an oustanding spot for anyone craving regional Chinese cuisine. Highly recommend! read more

I had a very average experience here. It didn't start so great. My family and extended family chose to come to Ping's Bistro, only to find out there was a 30-40 minute wait for our party of seven. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The lobby was crowded, so most of my family opted to go shopping nearby to kill time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was left to wait for our table to be ready. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It didn't help that it was nearly 90 degrees outside, as I witnessed a waiting customer suddenly faint in the waiting area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thankfully, the workers at the restaurant were swift and attentive to ensure the health and safety of the customer, giving her water, a chair, and escorting her safely out of the restaurant. The professionalism under pressure from the staff was outstanding. After the long wait, we were finally seated. Besides the vegetables and the pork buns, I did not find the meal very impressive. Considering the high price point, I was expecting to get wowed by all the dishes. The food was overall decent, with very impressive pork buns and vegetables, but it was average for the amount they were charging us. Overall, I'm appreciative of Ping's Bistro for hosting our family dinner. My family did enjoy the food, and the staff were attentive to our needs the entire time. However, I do not feel comfortable giving this place any higher than 3 stars due to the waiting problem as well as the high price point. As summer is coming and the days will only get hotter, Ping's Bistro staff has to implement a solution to address the long wait times for the well-being of their customers. read more

banger food. this restaurant deserves 6 stars! yunnan cuisine has been on the rise recently, as several establishments of similar style have been popping up around the bay. i'm favoriting this spot since it's the most accessible for me personally hehe. every single dish that we ordered was incredibly scrumptious with immense flavor and garlic galore. if i had to pick which were my absolute favs, i'd go with the grilled fish with lemongrass and sautéed 4 mushrooms, as these are yunnan specialty dishes. btw, the portions are huge!! even the bowl of rice was quite generous LOL. there's so much more on the menu that we haven't tried yet, but we will absolutely return soon to tackle the rest of it :) read more

Non-disclosure of Service Fee pointers. * Ask the manager where the 18% fee was disclosed before you ordered. * If they cannot point to a clear disclosure, request that the fee be removed. * If they refuse, keep your receipt and, if possible, a photo of the menu you were given. That documentation can be helpful if you decide to file a complaint with the California Attorney General or your local county consumer protection office. Food: so-so, small portion. read more

The lemongrass fish is the best fish i have ever had. Dont miss out on this. Good good food

This place was highly recommended by my coworkers so we stopped by for a quick meal during lunch hours. It was difficult to find parking as there are signs everywhere with restrictions so make sure to check all the signage. It was pretty busy around 12pm but we were able to get seated right away. This isn't your ordinary Chinese food restaurant; this place specializes in Yunnan style, which means lots of spices and herbs. For 4, we ordered: - Fried rice with green pepper, boletus & beef: 4/5 - Deep fried pork ribs w/tomato sauce: 5/5 - Yunnan small pot w/noodles: 4.5/5 - Sautéed beef & cilantro: 3/5 - Stir fried Chinese flowering cabbage: 5/5 My spice tolerance level is pretty low so I was only able to enjoy half of these dishes without suffering. I did like that each item didn't lack in seasoning but actually had very rich flavors. read more

I'm very excited about the news that one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the Bay Area just opened another location in Cupertino! I took my friends there to check out this new spot. Unfortunately, they only accept reservations for parties of 8 or more. The place was busy on a Wednesday night, and we waited a little over 30 minutes to be seated. So if you go during rush hours, you'll most likely need to put your name on the waitlist. The restaurant has a modern design, and the staff was friendly. We ordered several dishes, and we really enjoyed everything. The signature grilled fish was very flavorful, the chicken broth with wild fungi was soothing, the fried rice was light with perfect texture, and it paired very well with the well-seasoned shredded potato. The fried pork rib was crispy, and I loved the mint touch on top! read more

This is one of my favorite Chinese restaurants. In fact, I keep going back to try all dishes lol They know how to cook authentic Chinese food!!! The service is top notch, and so attentive and friendly! You can choose the levels of salt, oil, spiciness, etc. Highly recommended!! read more

This is more like a 3.5 stars rounding up to 4 because of how the restaurant handles the wait. The wait time is unavoidably long. There is no reservation on Fri/Sat/Sun and generally you'd need at least a party of 8 to make a reservation. And so you just stand there and wait in the front. The front staff will let you know once your table is almost ready and hand you a QR code to order food. However, the food isn't sent to the kitchen until you're actually seated. So if you think that you can order the food that has a long prep time and have it ready by the time you are seated, you are totally wrong. It's understandable why the restaurant does it, but it would be great if they explain this part. Once you got this "wait table" queue/QR code, you'd think that you'd be seated really soon, right? Our party waited for at least another 20 minutes before being seated. And once they finally call you to be seated, they swap the "wait table" QR code to an actual table QR code. And that's when the front staff "approves" of your order and sends it to the kitchen. The food is great! * The famous lemongrass fish is quite delicious. Still a bit oily considering that there is a less oil option. The portion is huge. The lemongrass wasn't overpowering the fish. I would order this again. * The stir fried jade tiger fungi with butter conch was also excellent. The best dish I've had for that meal, actually. Everything blended in together well. * Water spinach with sour bamboo shoots...the sourness of the bamboo shoots do overpower the water spinach. While not surprising, it felt like the dish tasted as if it was without the water spinach. * Fried rice with boletus edulis and ham tasted like a typical Chinese fried rice. Oh, and don't get tricked by the large parking lot. The dedicated spaces for Ping's Bistro aren't much. So, would I return? For the food, it's really tempting to go back again. But once I think about parking and the wait time, I'm hesitant. Maybe a weekday late lunch/early dinner might be the best time to go? Who knows. read more

All the food was good. The Stir fried beef was my favorite. We also got the Fried rice with green pepper, Yunnan style ham and Fish soup. Wait is ok if you go early! Luckily we had Chinese speaking people with us but if you don't it might be hard. It's QR code order but if you have questions theres a language barrier. Food comes straight to your table once ordered. Service was fast but neutral, not necessarily friendly. Very busy and hectic. Inside was clean though and modern! Private lot in back. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the Yunnan cuisine at Ping's Bistro! The steam pot chicken was light and naturally sweet--the chicken was very tender and the soup was incredibly flavorful without being greasy at all. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients. The stir-fried wild mushrooms were fragrant and perfectly cooked, with great texture and depth of flavor. Overall, the food was refreshing yet full of character, truly capturing the essence of Yunnan cuisine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was clean, the service was attentive, and the dishes came out quickly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's rare to find such authentic Yunnan food in Cupertino, and I'll definitely order these two dishes again. After the meal, the staff even helped pack our leftovers, which really showed how thoughtful the service is. 在留湘吃到了很惊喜的云南菜！ 汽锅鸡真的很清甜，鸡肉嫩，汤特别鲜，完全不油腻，能喝出食材本身的香味；小炒下山菌香气很足，菌子新鲜，火候掌握得刚刚好，越吃越香。 整体口味清爽但不寡淡，很有云南菜的特色。环境干净，服务也很周到，上菜速度快。 在Cupertino能吃到这样的云南菜真的难得，下次一定会再点这两道。 饭后买单会有服务员帮你打包，服务真的很好 read more

This is a very fine restaurant with offering that aren't commonly found in other Chinese restaurants in the area. It's a shame that they don't have a website to read about their dishes; you can find their menu on DoorDash but the interface is clunky. I guess you'd call this a Chinese fusion restaurant, encompassing multiple culinary traditions such as Yunnan, Sichuan, and Hunan. You won't find the familiar things like chow fun and fried rice here; rather, you'll discover ingredients such as wild mushrooms, pork liver, beef tripe, pig knuckle, and frog, just to name a handful. Basically, this is a good place to come if you're feeling a little adventurous. On our recent visit, just the two of us, we ordered the sauteed pork with black fungus and egg and pork liver with chives. Generally speaking, we really appreciated that the dishes were neither overseasoned nor oversalted, which can kill an otherwise promising meal. The pork and black fungus dish was very delicious, though the use of small jalapeno peppers for the heat, as opposed to red chili peppers, seemed a little out of place. The texture of the black fungus (a little bit of crunch) was nice. The pork liver was also prepared well, though the chunks of ginger, if you don't realize you're taking a bite, can overwhelm the flavor. The liver was thinly sliced so that even if there was a piece that was slightly tough it was still easy to bite through. The chives had good flavor; the Chinese chives gave it a nice kick as well. The restaurant has a very simple decor, modern and unadorned with the kitschy stuff that sometimes appears in Asian restaurants. There was a curious wall of glass between the dining area and a work area, but you didn't see the cooks hard at work behind the glass - just some supplies and extra chairs. I don't see the point of this at all. Service was just okay. You order with a QR code on the table. Someone did come by to confirm our selections, but other than dropping off some extra napkins and bringing us the card reader to pay (which they just left at the table), there was virtually no interaction with the restaurant staff. No one looked our way when we needed to get our takeout boxes, so we had to call out to a dazed-appearing server who was walking past our table. read more

ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE CHINESE RESTAURANT IN THE BAY, hands down. This place is just so so delicious!! I'd eat this everyday if I could. Taste-wise, this place takes it a notch higher than any other Chinese place in the Bay Area. I am a super fan of their shredded cabbage and sliced pork, but I'll talk about a few more dishes that I love in the meantime. 9.5/10 - Yunnan style spicy papaya with fish I knew I had to try it when EVERYONE had this dish in their tables. I know the name sounds a bit intimidating and avant garde but the taste of this dish is heavenly. It's actually a tomato heavy dish that is topped with small chunks of papaya. There's a tinge of spiciness, but the natural flavor of the tomato goes oh so well with the perfectly tender fish fillet slices. 8/10 - stir-fried mushroom with green peppers and yunnan ham Again, such an underwhelming name that does so little justice to the explosion of flavor it has. The mushrooms are just absolutely delectable: each ear is infused with umami flavor from the smoky ham and the freshness of the green peppers. You'd have to get this dish with a side of rice because this dish is what rice was grown. 10/10 - stir fried cabbage with sliced pork I've saved the best for last. Whoever cooks this dish deserves a standing ovation. This dish is served in a little wok over those purple fires. But from the moment it's carried to your table, you'll be able to smell an aroma that is just the right umami smoked flavor. Each piece of cabbage is coated with a clear golden sauce that explodes with savory, slightly garlicky goodness. The pork slices are the perfect complement, as they provide concentrated packed flavor. I've tried other dishes, but these are my top three. I also really recommend their lychee drink. It's a must visit place. read more

Order through their website which is accessed via QR code, and they bring the order to your table. The food came fast even though our table ordered many items. The lunch crowd is busy, lively, and loud -- so it was good! My favorites were the braised pork and the fried whole fish! Very good portions and such a great range of flavors. We also ordered a rice dish to supplement the meats, and we also started the meal with one order of the sliced beef flank with mint. Nothing we had was a flop! read more

I'll say it's not bad in terms of authenticity if this is a "legt" Chinese place or not. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is modern, clean which is always a plus.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We came at around 11:30 am on a Saturday, got seated right away as the restaurant was about 80% full. Very quickly the restaurant was full by 12 noon. Now the food: Well, not bad but miss something... that last spice, that last missing flavor.... For the grilled fish with lemongrass: one of the most popular dishes. They actually deep fried the fish first, then grilled it with heavy spices that you often see at Chinese bbq places. Greasy, salty and therfore tasty.....LOL.... For the beef stir fried with cilantro. Hmmmmm..... where's that beef flavor?! For the chicken soup with wild fungi in steam pot. Again, where's that nice thick chicken soup flavor that you can get after chicken is being stewed for hours?! Not here. We also get a cold appetizer dish: spinach with seaweed. Simple flavor. So there you have it guys. Not bad but something is definitely missing.... read more

A friend introduced me this restaurant a year ago. We liked it at the time. The rose cake was fabulous. I took my 75 years old mom there last December. It was horrendous. I was so shocked and unsettled and didn't want to even think about it so my review is four months late. The fried pork ribs were very dry and hard. My mom couldn't even bite it down. The air pot chicken soup was very bland like watered down and the chicken was like small loose pieces from other people's leftovers. Of course, it is absolutely tasteless. The spicy fish was not fresh at all. We wanted to ask the waitress to report this, but there were only two people working that day. I just can't put the blame on them. This experience was horrific and worst dine out ever. It changed my lifestyle as I began to cook mostly at home. It took me four months to write this review, because it took that much time for me to be willing to think about it again. I forgot to mention the shards of bones in the soup. Since the chicken was like leftovers with loose pieces, the bones were like shards. We had to be very careful eating this dish to avoid swallowing the shards of bones. I guess I was too traumatized by o remember this detail earlier. read more

I'm not exactly sure what kind of food Ping's is within the sphere of Chinese regional cuisines, but it sure is delicious. I came here for lunch on a weekday and there was a wait. As you'd expect as the food really is quite good. But after around 10 minutes we were seated. I won't go into every dish as we ordered a lot, but Ping's covers a lot of bases. They have spicy and mild dishes, meaty and veggie dishes, simple/clean and fatty/strong flavors. Just so much to enjoy. I think you'd need to come multiple times to try everything you'd want on the menu. Service was fast once we ordered, just our table was hilariously too small for all the food. Some of my dining companions, like myself, ordered everything they wanted without regard to their ability to actually finish it. Oh well, leftovers are good too. The staff were nice and the place is relatively new and comfortable and clean. There is a parking lot but it can be tight and it isn't very big. They take credit cards, which is nice. read more

I tried this place with my mom, my brother and my husband recently we were seated immediately on a Saturday around noon. I don't think they take reservations. Parking was kind of crazy because the lot is not that big. The food was really big portion sizes and enough for four people my only problem is it is really salty and spicy even the stuff that's not from Sichuan. My mom is actually from there and she thought the dishes were just ok. I have been to better Chinese restaurants than this. I miss the Japanese place that used to be here that was our go to for almost a decade. I don't really know if we would be back. I'm glad we tried it I guess. Service was OK but not exceptional which is odd considering it's such a new restaurant you'd think they'd want to make a better impression. read more
