One of our orders was the beef stew noodle soup, and either they got our order wrong or it's just not tasty but our entire entree had no beef pieces, only tendon pieces. Everything else was good.

Beef chow fun tasted old and as if it had gone bad, especially the beef. Shrimp and chives dumpling were okay, they were barely warm when I received them

NOTE: I love sweet & sour sauce & have my own, thank goodness! They provide chili sauce with 葱油饼 Green Onion Cake but no sweet-and-sour. I highly recommend you call to request cuz it's SO GOOD!
We love the green onion pancakes & highly recommend if you're on the fence, even if youre not an onion fan. Theyre not overpowering at all! They're kinda crisp on outside with softer, chewy layers on the inside that just pull apart! The green onions are more seasoning/garnish, it's the fried pancakes" dough's decadent texture to me that's the star of the show!
If you've never had them they remind me of a quesadilla without actually having cheese, so good for vegans? I'd ask what oil they use but my guess is plant-based & though I don't really taste it, recipes usually list sesame oil as well.
I got hooked on green onion pancakes many years ago (at Canada College in Redwood City late 90s) when they were the cheapest thing sold in the cafeteria. $1 for small quesadilla size. Hadn't had since til we moved back & to this part of county. Now my picky daughter is also obsessed.
At first glance they Seem pricey for what they are, but portions are generous & filling!

The dumplings from here are my favorite in the area. The fillings are super yummy and they are always freshly prepared
