    Wang Jia Wei in Union City had really good food, but the wait time was a bit long. It took a while for our food to come out, and it seemed like other customers were experiencing the same delay as well. One thing I did like was that they have photos of the dishes with the names on the wall, which makes it easier to see what you're ordering. The food itself was great though--the honey walnut shrimp was especially delicious and definitely a highlight. I'll probably come back to give them another chance haha, especially since that honey walnut shrimp was so good.

    This place is bursting with good Sichuan flavors. A real highlight here is the relied hot spicy soup. It has perfectly tender fish in broth that has a nice Sichuan numbing spice that isn't too strong. The dry fried green beans are on the crispy side, and I think that they are definitely my favorite dish. I also loved the savory, juicy, and fresh dumplings. They came out quickly with great service. Everything was at the perfect temperature. There is a multitude of menu options, they definitely have you covered for those Chinese comfort food cravings. I can't wait to come back and try even more food!

    Spicy beef and tendon
    Alicia A.

    Came in and order some appetizers to go. I ordered the Sliced beef and tendon with ripe in chili sauce, the spicy potato salad and the beef shank with cucumber salad. The spicy potato salad was ok was not spicy at all. The sliced beef tendon dish was good but a bit too spicy for my taste. The beef shank and cucumber salad was by far my favorite. It was tasty and refreshing. Definitely be back for this dish. Will need to be back to try other things on the menu.

    Pork fried rice, fish with pickled veggies, east bay soup, basil clams.
    Crystal H.

    Bang for your buck and yummy food. Casual place. We walked in Tuesday around 7pm and it wasn't busy. We underestimated the portion size. It's a shareable portion. No wonder the staff moved us from a table of 2 to a table of 4. We ordered Pork fried rice, fish with pickled veggies, east bay soup, and basil clams. Everything was good, but the fish with veggies was salty. Everything else wasn't overly salty. Most of the dishes were priced at around $16. The staff even pack your leftovers for you. We ordered tea and it was $2.50 a pot. Will be back to try more dishes!

    Honey walnut prawns
    Jin K.

    I placed a takeout order by phone and was quoted a 30-minute wait time. When I arrived after the 30 minutes had passed, I was told the order would be ready in about another 10 minutes. Unfortunately, it ended up taking an additional 30 minutes beyond that. The food itself was good, but the inaccurate time estimates made the pickup experience frustrating. If you're ordering takeout, be prepared for a longer wait than what's quoted, as their timing for phone orders doesn't seem very reliable.

    Fish Fillet in Wine Sauce
    Jed O.

    Ordered my meal takeout and needed to compliment the great flavor! 5/5 - Honey Walnut Prawn. The star of the show here has a very smooth and non-overwhelming honey glaze that sticks and portions well onto each prawn. The batter also remained very crunchy over a perfectly cooked prawn. You won't be disappointed ordering this dish! 5/5 - Fish Fillet in Wine Sauce. Fish fillets cooked PERFECTLY in a savory wine broth sauce. If you like fish and soup, this is one of their best dishes. I can't recommend it enough. The portion is generous and you can definitely share with others. 4/5 - Sesame Chicken. The chicken was a bit drier than I expected but the dish was still quite decent with a well-proportioned sesame sauce and sesame seed seasoning.

    Braised Pork Belly 10/10
    Alyssa A.

    The Caveat: Your wait time could be anywhere from 15 minutes to 1 hour. Why? The table set up allows them to accommodate larger parties 8+, but that also means less small group tables. Please come patient for this small business. They have a waitlist where you leave name, phone number and group size, but it's written. So first come, first serve. Otherwise, it is well worth the wait. And I mean we left with left over because we underestimated the amount of food given! Every single dish is prepared fresh, none of them were under temperature or uncooked. Because of the food variety, we were waiting in between some dishes. However, it allowed us to fully focus and enjoy the dish in front of us. There is another review that accurately depicts the wait staff, but we only saw 3 staff members working at night. They are all kind, so try to see where they are coming from. We got a bunch of different dishes, but my top 3 were the Braised Red Pork Belly, General Tso's chicken and the stir fried pea shoots. Also had to try the beef chow fun because... Crispy Fry from Emeryville Public Market is still the best. Take a look at my photos and see the other dishes we tried, but all in all... I'm coming back again to try different dishes because there is less Americanized dishes here I feel like it connects me to my Chinese culture.

    Wang Jia Wei had delicious food, the Szechuan chicken was flavorful with the perfect amount of spice, and the noodles were cooked just right. The only downside was the long wait; our food took about 45 minutes to arrive. I would give them 3.5/5, everything tasted great and would easily make it a solid 4-star experience if not for the delay.

    Bitter melon with egg, Dong Po Pork Joint, Chives with egg, Salt and pepper fish fillet
    Henry H.

    Wang Jia Wei, one of the newest restaurant within the plaza around so I had to come and check it out. The furniture inside were decorated with traditional Chinese wooded chairs and table. There were able 4-5 tables dining when I came and got a to go order. Here are the things I got: Dong Po Pork Joint - 4 / 5 The pork had an unique taste that combines a little bit of sweet and sour sauce in this dish. It is different then how the Cantonese styled of Dong po tasted which is heavier on the soy flavoring instead. It tasted unique but definitely something to get used to if you haven't had this styled of Dong Po pork beforehand. Salt & Pepper fish fillet - 5 / 5 It's tough to get this dish wrong. The salt and pepper mix is just right along with the portion. If you don't frequent Chinese restaurants, this one is a safe bet to get and most of the time you'll get a winner out of it. The portion the chef gave was handsome, I greatly appreciate it. Bitter melon with egg - 4 / 5 The green bitter melon is really not as bitter as other bitter melons that I have had in the past. They scrambled it well with eggs and the salt portion is just right. If you like a good bitter melon like myself here and there, give this dish a try. Chive with egg - 5 / 5 When was the last time that you have had any chives like anywhere? Yea, me either. They've mixed it well with the eggs and the chef did a good job accentuating the smell and taste of chives. I love it. There's only one downside to this restaurant and it is the service. They told me 20 minutes to come back so I strolled around outside. I came back just to see them prepare for everyone else but mine? Wait, wtf? Another 15 minutes I waited until the dishes were completed. Jeez man, do I need to micromanage these waiters and waitress to get my orders on time? I'm not hard to please when it comes to Chinese restaurants cause I come expecting crappy service but waiting like another 15 minutes AFTER you told me to come back in 20 minutes is like close to double the waiting time. For what? 5 tables of people with 3 waiters inside? Come on now.

    We went on a Friday afternoon for lunch and this place was packed. They have an extensive menu. We ordered bunch of items to share. We ordered the Colorful Mung Bean Noodle Salad, Shredded Daikon Puff Pastry, Napa Cabbage With Pork Rice Cake, Pork Rib With Potato and String Beans, Lamb With Onion, Bean Curd With Shredded Pork Over Rice( Lunch Special), Shanghai Style Salted Pirk With Veggie Fried Rice, and Fried Flour Roll. All the food didn't come out all at once. Some dishes came out 15 to 20 minutes in between. The salad came out towards the end of of our meal. The Shredded Daikon Puff Pastry came out when we're almost done with our meal. The Colorful Mung Bean Noodle Salad looks better than the taste of the salad. They did put effort into cutting the veggies. The Shredded Daikon Puff Pastry were good. However, I found an eye lash underneath one off them. We got grossed out.. The Napa Cabbage With Pork Rice Cake was meh. We had better elsewhere. The Pork Rib With Potato and String Beans Soup was very salty. It was almost inedible. The Lamb With Onion was a disappointment. Lamb had tendons and bones in them. The Shanghainese Style Salted Pork with Veggie Fried Rice was very, very greasy. The Fried Flour Roll was also a big disappointment. We thought the order would come with four Fried flour rolls vs to two and it didn't come with a side of condensed milk as a dipping sauce. For the price that they charged $9.95, it was a total ripped off for two small flour rolls. We had to flag down the waiter for everything. We only got service only when we asked and we had to wait too. They definitely need to hire more people. Even though the prices are reasonable, we wouldn't be back. There are some many other restaurants around that have better food.

    Dong Po Pork Joint.

    Food is authentic as in China. Seating is limited and the wait can be long-ish depending on the time of visit. Lots of families bringing their older Asian parents. That's where you know the place is legit.

    Last dish to arrive at our table
    Belinda T.

    ok this restaurant is so highly rated on yelp. Saw that it gets crazy on the weekends so we came with 3 sets of older Chinese (aunts uncles and my parents) on a Monday night. There were people but no wait. We were greeted immediately and sat down. My parents enjoyed ordering off the pictures on the wall instead. Our waitress said based on our crowd we'll do a lower salt option than normal and some of the dishes less spicy. The dishes arrived, I need to come back to try it with regular spice minus the older folk but man if this is "LESS SALT" i can't imagine what full salt tastes like. It was def salty and we needed extra bowls of rice to eat with it. I wish I would've taken more pics but you know we were hungry. I would skip out on the fish next time it was a bit too sweet for my tastes. The "ants climbing the mountain" noodles were tasty but I need to figure out a better way to mix it by the time we were done with it there was a ton of meat on the bottom that we weren't able to scoop up when we were getting the noodles.

    Hot and sour soup provided with the lunch specials
    Megan C.

    THIS IS NOT A SHANGHAINESE RESTAURANT!!! (I have let the yelp mods know.) As confirmed by immigrant Chinese parents, this restaurant is a mishmash of EVERYTHING (Chinese American, Korean, etc) but they advertise themselves as a sichuan hunan restaurant with a focus on northeastern Chinese dishes--yes, this is what makes them special. Lunch special runs Monday to Friday except for Wednesday since they are closed until 2:30pm. No soup selection. No rice selection. Green beans with beef lunch special: - ugh hot and sour soup was lukewarm and cold with flavorless vibes... salty and not very sour or flavorful but had the typical ingredients... totally and completely disappointed - vegetable eggroll was gummy and crispy but probably the HIGHLIGHT of the entire meal; no sauce provided - lightly boiled broccoli... counteracted the saltiness of the dish - the beef was tender but the artificial tenderness and texture spooks me (Is the meat naturally this way?) - green beans are old and not very fresh as they were not very crisp Pickled cabbage lamb noodle soup - noodles were soft and overcooked - oily - lamb was on par with no strange after tastes Traditional sweet and sour pork - very thinly sliced pork with some slices having lots of fat - very dry, dense - sauce was delicious but filled with so much MSG; also comprised of raw garlic, raw ginger, raw carrots, raw green onions, raw cilantro, cornstarch - table next to us did not even touch this dish but instead brought the entire thing home... - I asked the waitress how to reheat this and she gave me an attitude and eye roll with the over confident phrase of "our dishes are all delicious even cold but you can use the microwave" OVERALL, all the dishes are FILLED with MSG. I was dying of thirst so much so I had 3 full sized drinks afterwards. They do not make their own hot sauce. SERVICE: - immediately concerning from the gecko as we asked a server what has been the most ordered noodle dish or what noodle dish do they recommend... she could not even tell us anything and had vibes of not even knowing the menu... another server immediately comes over - as stated above, rude with an over confident and obnoxious attitude - automatically provides iced water with lemon in a dirty canister but has hot tea available in a portable kettle AMBIENCE: - I love how the wall is filled to the brim with photos of their dishes but I felt as if the wall was closing in since the photos are all black and dark (I'm claustrophobic) - they provide brand name toilet paper :) - clean bathroom LOCATION: - next to din din dumplings - tight parking spaces - convenient location due to multiple adjacent plazas, options, and services Will I be coming back? - I heard this place was delicious from multiple Yelp elites hence I really really really wanted to try this place. I am completely astonished in a bad way and disappointed. I would not come back solely due to the massive amounts of MSG used.

Several months ago, I visited Fong Kee Clay Pot with a different friend who gave it rave reviews. The food isn't gross, but it's something I can make myself. Cook some meat and rice, and throw it in a clay pot. Although I didn't want to come here, the rest of my friends were excited to try this place. I kept my mouth shut and didn't express my opinion. Maybe I should have spoken up because everyone was underwhelmed by what we ordered. My food was bland and needed more flavor, but I wasn't sure what to add to make it more flavorful. What I shared with my husband: Preserved egg and chicken porridge with a Chinese donut Chinese sausage w/ salted fish I was disappointed by the amount of salted fish in my bowl. I found a few sheer pieces of basically nonexistent fish in my fish. It takes less than two dollars to make this dish, so I have no idea why a bowl of rice costs $17. I love preserved egg and chicken porridge, but this one lacked sodium and preserved duck egg flavor. My guess is that they made plain porridge and dumped chicken and preserved egg into it instead of cooking it on a slow simmer. My friend had to send her dish back because she found a hair in her food. Cons: Bland dishes Expensive dishes for what you actually get Pros: Prompt and good service for a party of 7. The next time a friend suggests Clay Pot, I will suggest a better alternative and spare us disappointment.

Ever since we tried…read moreChinese style bbq skewers last year, we definitely wanted to try more, Dynasty bbq came up on Yelp and seemed quite reasonable in price and serving size. When you enter and get seated, you will be prompted to go on the url code at the table to pick your items. While I understand that this is the new way for restaurants to serve guests post-covid, the vast menu items you have to scroll through makes me long for physical menus of the past - but that's just my boomer take for the day. There were a bunch of other items like rice and noodle dishes that looked interesting to pair with the meats, but we were only craving bbq so we skipped out on the carbs. We ordered a BUNCH of skewers, from the standard beef, lamb, pork belly to chicken skin and a fried quail. All of the skewers had the same type of dried chili powder spice seasoning mix so unfortunately there wasn't too much of a diversity in flavor profile but on the flip side, it allowed us to focus more on enjoying the meat quality itself (this is where rice or noodles would definitely help cut through the richness). All of the meats were incredibly well-cooked and charred. It is on the drier side, so be aware if you are looking for a juicier, plumper cut of meat that some other restaurants have. Paired with the Chinese vinegar, soy sauce, and chili oil, they were super delectable. My personal favorites were the pork belly, chicken skin, and beef. We had some leftovers to go and the staff provided us some extra sauce to go so that's a big plus. Great food here and definitely will be back to try more of the other menu items for the full experience.

And not sure if they still have entertainment on weekend nights, but a few times in the past they had a musician playing a Chinese zither. If you like skewers, this place is definitely worth a visit.

We also had the Shredded Cabbage with Sliced Pork (8/10), which was nice and tangy. The cabbage soaked up all the sauce, making every bite packed with flavor, while the pork provided a great contrast to the vegetables. The House Special Fried Rice with Pickle & Beef (7/10) wasn't anything extraordinary, but it served as a great base alongside the other dishes. The pickles were an interesting addition, as I've never had fried rice prepared that way before, but I definitely enjoyed it. Finally, we decided to try the House Special Spicy Frog in Stone Pot (6.5/10) since most of us had never had frog before. The flavor was outstanding, with a great umami depth and just the right amount of spice. The frog itself was a little difficult to eat because of the large number of bones, but the meat was tender and juicy. Replacing the frog with another protein probably would have made it more favorable, but I still enjoyed trying something new and didn't regret ordering it. Overall, Ping's Bistro is a great spot for outstanding Chinese food. Every dish we tried was enjoyable, and there are still so many items on the menu I'd love to come back and explore. The prices are on the higher side, but the quality and flavor make up for it. I'll definitely be back.

    If I were to sum up my meal in one word, I can do it easily: salty. Every dish I've tried today was…read moreincredibly salty. Though I prefer my food a little bit more flavorful, Ping's Bistro really shot every single flavor up. The Steamed pork belly with preserved vegetables was served first, and without a doubt, is one of the spiciest. It's a good size for sharing, but the preserved vegetables on the bottom was mushy and came in a very small portion. Though supposed to be a part of the dish, seemed to be thrown in just for some extra flavor. Though I selected mild spiciness for the Spicy Boiled Fish, it was still REALLY spicy. Maybe it's my spice intolerance, but this dish lights a fire in your mouth. Also, this dish is mala, so it numbs your mouth. Some people may enjoy this sensation, but it's a pass for me. The fish was really soft and tender though. The fish was my favorite part of the Spicy Boiled Fish. Not only there is fish underneath, it was surprising to see other ingredients like lotus, vermicelli noodles, and much more. The salted egg covered pork was extremely salty and oily. I was surprised to know it was boneless, and I felt like the salted egg crust is too thin, which let the taste of the pork overthrow any type of salted egg taste. The Country Style Sautéed Pork with Eggs and Black Fungus was again one of my preferred dishes, though it was extremely oily. I really liked the egg, black fungus, and bell peppers in this dish. The eggs and black fungus were soaked with flavor and the bell peppers balanced out the heaviness. The pork was also alright, but more on the tougher side. If you were to come to Ping's Bistro, I would advise you to order the Country Style Sautéed Pork with Eggs and Black Fungus. The floors were really sticky, but other than that, everything was alright. The water was poured messily, but I guess it's no big thing. The staff were really quiet and avoided interaction. When they serve your dish, they never wait an extra second before they leave for any questions or requests. They just drop the dish and zoom away. From my review, just remember: saltiness. I'm not convinced that I'll come back again, but I'm glad I tried it out.
