This is exactly what you’d expect from an Asian BBQ joint. If you know what to expect, then you’re good to go. If it’s your first time, here are some notes.
Definitely not the cleanest restaurant. Waiters/waitresses may not be the kindest and sometimes it’ll be hard to get their attention. Just be assertive. I wouldn’t use the bathroom. It’s kind of gross. It’ll help if you can speak Chinese, but if you point at stuff, that’ll suffice.
On the other hand, Chinese BBQ is done right here. I’ve had BBQ pork so many times I can’t even count. I will recommend all their rice plates. They are priced well and will definitely fill you up. Or just order a plate of BBQ Pork. That’ll work too. Their fried chicken is also bomb along with the fried string beans.
The noodles aren’t bad either. Good portions and will definitely keep you warm and full on a cold day in Daly City.
Overall, definitely recommend as a spot for some seriously down to earth Chinese BBQ.
Pro tip: become a regular and they’ll definitely increase...

Mr. Fong in Daly City is another spot in Bay Area known for their succulent ducks and crispy and juicy roast pork to serve your Chinese BBQ cravings! I'm here for this!
But, some friends wanted Crispy Hk style combo chowmein and this place does a decent job. Sweet and sour pork, not bad. The salted fish and chicken fried rice was really good and was the standout dish for this night. It helps that the chef and owners are from "Toisan village" in China and this is one of their signatures.
I have not eaten inside the restaurant since before the pandemic. But let's be real, the service used to mediocre and you are not here for service. Food was " ok for a weekday lunch or dinner". Nothing fancy or rave about. I will come back for dine in again.

Read moreI Love Mr. Fong's but "expletive delete" man $40 bucks for lunch is too much! Asked about a lunch menu and somehow (cough) ended up with screw the pooch family style portions. Guys like me get stuck like this all the time unless I make an argument of it.
Wasn't a clean table in the place when I popped in after lunch rush which was about two. Waitstaff was obviously worn out and off their game from not only my own misgivings and problems too small to mention but the solid complaints I couldn't help overhearing from the other two covers. Awkwaaaard.
All the same, food's a real treat here. Everything with the food was really good. Loved it.
Spicy garlic wings, fried rice, hot and sour soup lunch (with an egg rolI which I didn't get here) is just about a ten buck lunch anywhere else.
Food gets five stars with the overall review anchored down by...
