    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

    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

    Dai style deep fried pork ribs

    The lemongrass pork chops are pretty good. Tender, flavorful, and worth a try. Service was fast and attentive as well.

    所有菜都好吃!聚餐必选,湾区爱吃的店都是同一家 酸笋空心菜酒酿桂花奶yyds 中午基本都要排队,早点来! All the dishes are delicious! This place is always a must for our get-togethers -- all our favorite restaurants in the Bay Area are from the same group The pickled bamboo shoots, water spinach, fermented rice osmanthus milk, yyds!

    My husband and I have been wanting to check out Ping's Bistro. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We enjoyed the whole experience from the vibe of the restaurant, efficient and nice staff to the delicious food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our mushroom dish had a good wok flavor. Pork ribs - crispy and not oily. The rose jelly dessert refresh. We definitely want to try other dishes.

    very clean and nice restaurant! The service is good. I waited a little bit but it's worth the taste!

    Came on a weekend for lunch and ordered the chicken with cordyceps clay pot rice and also the pig…read moreears appetizer. Pig ears came quickly. Large portion (especially for $7 when many other restaurants charge $10+ for this dish) and flavored well. A little bit spicy but mostly savory. My one nit was they were actually a bit too salty, so we waited until our rice arrived to eat them. The chicken with cordyceps clay pot rice was delicious. The chicken was well-seasoned and very tender and juicy. The cordyceps paired really well. They have their "secret claypot sauce" on the table so you can season to your preference. Food came quickly despite it being a clay pot spot. You order off a QR code, so there wasn't much service. Interior is bright and clean with lots of tables.

    Came here with friends looking for comfort food. We ordered 4 clay pots and a veggie dish cuz we…read morewere skeptical it would be enough since the pots looked so tiny but we actually had leftovers! The place was a bit noisy but it was nice and bright. When we walked in it was empty but soon filled up before we left. My friend had it doordashed to them and they were surprised the food came in a clay pot (I think it costs $3 more when you get it to go or delivered but I could be wrong). The rice in the clay pot was nice and crispy and the soy sauce was perfect. For some reason I can't find the pics (will post if I find them later) but it was all good! I was especially impressed with the way they did their chinese broccoli with oyster sauce. Would come by again if we were in the area!

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.

It is a bit of a dumpy place right next to a gas station, across from an empty strip mall shop area! We weren't even sure the restaurant was open when we got here. We were asked to pick any table - mostly booths. There's a QR code to scan and place your order. After peruse quite an array of items we picked the ma po tofu and the beef with onions. Service was minimal- we weren't even sure presented with 2 cups and a carafe of water to start. Our order arrived and we got a complimentary seaweed miso soup. Soup was quite good with real seaweed - not the dehydrated stuff in some Japanese restaurants. Surprisingly the food was delicious! The ma po tofu was very authentic. There's schezwan peppers or Mala in it but it was not overpowering that it numbs your tastebuds! The tofu was soft and silky. The beef had good flavor and balanced the meal out. Beef was tender. Overall we enjoyed our meal. Will definitely come back to try other dishes on the menu If you're not familiar with traditional Chinese entrees the menu can be quite daunting and a turn off. They definitely utilize all animal parts!

Who does not like some skewered meat and this place does it well. If you did not have the opportunity to try Chinese skewered meats you are missing out. The seasoning is done well here a combination of Sichuan spices the chili and spices. Again I think the portions and the prices that they are arranged for here are not that bad at all. I think I got a total of 9 skewers and paid about 40 dollars with tip included. It's not badly priced I know some other places and skewer places that same amount would have come out to more than 60 dollars or more. You order through your tables QR code and they bring the skewers right to your table. The table has warmer pans to keep your food warm while you eat through your other skewered meats. I guarantee you, you will eat more than 1 skewered meats.
