Milpitas Gem | A Cozy Homestyle Eatery Tucked Away in San Francisco

Headed to Yuan Bistro with friends after a group recommendation for their guobaorou (sweet and crispy pork) — but life had other plans 😅. The staff kindly let us know the chef specializing in that dish was out sick that day. 🥺 But the menu surprised us — it’s packed with homestyle classics from Northeastern Chinese to Sichuan flavors! Here’s what we tried: Farmhouse Stir-fry Bowl – Savory, hearty, and full of wok hei 🍲 West Hunan Bandit-Style Pork Liver – Bold and spicy, though a bit on the chewy side Dry Pot Large Intestine – Crispy, aromatic, and deeply satisfying 🌶️ Spicy Red Oil Bon Bon Chicken– Tender chicken in numbing chili oil — a standout! 🐔 Aside from the liver being slightly overcooked, every dish was flavorful and generously portioned. We left full and happy! 📍 Yuan Bistro 42 Dixon Rd, Milpitas, CA 95035 🅿️ Free parking — lot is spacious and easy 🥤⛽ Located near Asian supermarkets and boba spots — perfect for a post-meal stroll or snack run! #SanFrancisco#BayAreaKids #NortheasternChineseCuisine #GuobaorouLovers #MilpitasEats #HomestyleCooking #BayAreaChineseFood #HiddenGem
