This is official my favorite Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area. Their 松鼠桂鱼(pine fried fish with tomato sauce) is absolutely fantastic. We were just walking past one day and saw they have 松鼠桂鱼on their menu, so we decided to give it a try. It was the BEST we’ve had in the United States. It is my bf’s favorite Chinese dish since childhood. They do a great job. The flavor is just the right amount of sweet and sour.

All their other dishes are all super authentic and the price is much more reasonable than a lot of Chinese restaurants...

Parking was tricky but we got lucky. Otherwise you’ll have to go around the block to keep looking for someone pulling out if you go at rush hours especially on weekends.
Very unique dishes you won’t find at other Chinese places. The best are their signature fish in hot tray items! We got one and it was amazing. Added an egg yoke friend shrimp, and a sautéed vege dish. Both also very good.
Took home the many leftovers and finished those off the next day. Can’t wait to go back when I’m in...
