    Becky's Chinese restaurant has been a staple restaurant in the Rockridge area of Oakland for over 25 years. They have amazing lunch specials and family dinner specials at reasonable prices. I enjoyed a lovely lunch with my Mom and here's what we ordered: The Broccoli Beef lunch special, Kung Pao Chicken lunch special and chicken chow mein. Keep in mind that the Kung Pao Chicken was a little spicy so for those that can't take spice I might skip this dish. Everything was fresh and delicious. Each lunch special comes with soup and salad and each entrée comes with fresh steam rice. They offer lunch specials from 11:30 AM - 3:30 PM. Their white steamed rice is always cooked to perfection...not sure how they get it that way, but it is very good and fluffy. Becky herself sometimes takes our order and is so nice and accommodating. There were several takeout orders being processed throughout our meal. Another good sign of happy customers. The parking in this area can be challenging, but you can circle the block and you're sure to find a park nearby. The best part about going to Becky's is visiting the neighboring stores around the restaurant. There are consignment stores, bookstores, and a European market directly across the street called Rockridge Market Hall. I highly recommend bringing a group of girlfriends or your mom here and just enjoy the neighborhood, fun shopping and yummy Chinese food!

    Fried rice , broccoli beef, and vegetable chow mein

    Extremely Disappointing Experience We arrived at the restaurant at 8:45 PM, well before the posted closing time of 9:30 PM. At first, the ambiance was nice, and we were looking forward to enjoying our meal. However, the experience quickly went downhill once we felt the employees rushing us to leave. We were still eating when a busser approached us and, speaking in Spanish, told us to "go home." This was both unprofessional and inappropriate, especially since he assumed our language based on our ethnicity. He also mentioned that they "don't get paid overtime," which is not something a guest should ever be told. This ruined the dining experience completely--we couldn't enjoy our food. On top of that, the food itself was bland and stale. This was by far the worst treatment my family and I have ever received at a restaurant. We expected basic courtesy and quality, but instead, we were disrespected and rushed out.

    Spicy Hunan Prawns so good

    I'd say stick to lunch and dim sum specials for the price and taste you won't be disappointed. Dim sum which at Beckys are basically small plates are such a good value, they even have Mongolian Beef. My hunan prawns were $14 before tax both items $23 after tax. Service is good here no complaints. Street parking free and paid is available.

    6. Szechuan Beef

    Order 3 of their lunch specials from DoorDash. I ordered Mongolian Beef, House Chow Mein, and Szechuan Beef. Sadly the to go lunches don't have the soup. All three were reasonably priced $12-$13. The food was good for the prices. All three were packed with a lot of rice and if I ordered again I could just order the chow mein not as a lunch specials the foot itself was nothing special but it did taste good. My only complaint was that both the Mongolian Beef and the Szechuan Beef were listed as hot and spicy and there was no spice at all.

    Every dish was so delicious!!! I will always go back to this restaurant. Thank you Becky's for all your good food! Thank you!!!!

I usually come with my family, and we order damn near everything on the menu. The aunties serving dishes actually laugh when they see how much food they're dropping off at the table. My favorites are the chili oil wontons, hot and dry noodles, bok choy, and General Tso's chicken. The wontons have just the right amount of heat, the noodles are thicccc and chewy, and every dish somehow manages to disappear before we can even think about leftovers. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything you order. One of my favorite parts is watching them make the noodles by hand. Half the restaurant is dedicated to the noodle-making station, while the other half is for seating. It's not a huge dining room, but they do offer the Yelp Waitlist, so you can check the live wait before heading over. The vibe is very, get your food and head out so they can keep up with table space for incoming guests. Always a hit, never a miss.

When we first walked in, no other diners were there which made me a little suspicious. We were promptly seated and offered hot tea though so we were locked in. I initially ordered to seafood claypot but was told it takes 45 minutes...so pivoted to chicken wonton soup (no noodles). My partner got kung pao chicken. while we waited for our food, a handful of people came in to pick up their to go orders, which made me feel better. Another party eventually dined in as well. Fyi the interior isn't much to write home about but comfortable. Then the food came. My soup was freaking delicious! Loads of chicken meat (just chopped up with the bones so be careful for shards), plenty of dumplings, and the broth was sooo good! I couldn't finish and took some left overs home; the next day, my soup coagulated (full of collagen)!! Partner enjoyed their kung Pao chicken but said they'd order something else next time. Best part - our meals + tax came out to less than $40! Gawd I love Chinatown!

With that said although Yu Yu is located in a pretty sketch area of Oakland/Berkeley, I would still recommend eating here just for its authenticity. They seem to have a parking lot in the back but we manage to find street parking in the front. You're better off looking for parking in the back than the front due to limited spaces. As for the food it was delicious. For the jajangmyeon you are given the noodles separately from the sauce; this allows you to pour in as much or as little as you want. I personally felt their flavors were mild enough that I poured in the whole thing. As for the tang su yook, it comes with a sweet and sour sauce that's bomb dot com. Even as stuffed as I was with the jajangmyeon, I managed to still find it in myself to finish the last bits of the tang su yook. Highly recommend. The restaurant itself seems to be newly renovated; don't let the rough exterior fool you. The inside was nice and clean but they only have room for four large tables that can fit a parties of 6, and the rest range from parties of 2-4. Last but not least service, they seem to run lean and understaffed but the gentlemen working did his best. Just be mindful if you come at a busy time you may have to wait. Overall looking forward to coming back here!
