    Thai noodles
    Sing M.

    The five stars this time were for the shitake mushroom and soy-clam mash. The spicy one with the red oil in it is the right one. It is similar to the orange sauce at La Victoria in that it makes everything else taste screamingly good. The restaurant served it in a chilled bottle, but I found out later that eating it chilled wasn't the best thing to do. To unlock its full potential, I had to take it home first, to sear it in a hot skillet, to the point where it caramelized and stuck to the bottom. This lifted the already addictive flavors into even higher orbit, like how it works with sizzling black bean sauce with scallions for Dungeness crab or Pacific rockfish. There was something else in the mash which made it special, but it could have been scallops, or dried shrimp maybe, or crab. The three look similar when mashed up.

    Food is mediocre at best. With so many great options in downtown i wouldn't recommend going here. Service is pretty good because you will be the only one in the shop. And I like the funky ambiance. Value isnt great portions are small. I have had it twice to give this place a fair chance probably wont be returning

    Beef noodles

    Nice little place with noodles and dish options. It's near the SJ city hall and has an artistic interior. The owner and staff were really interactive and friendly. The lady told me they just opened on the 2nd and there are 3 $6 coupons if you order through their app. There are also self-kiosks and a self-serving area for tissues and utensils. I asked for spicy recommendations which led me to order the beef noodles. There are many seats and you can sit anywhere after ordering. The order came pretty fast and they gave me some free sides(spring rolls and cheese wontons) while I was eating. Those were crispy and good. The beef noodles were mildly spicy and had a nice umami flavor that was light but flavorful. The beef was really tender and there's also bok choy in it. I'll probably go back and try the other items.

    Yay!! New restaurant in downtown SJ! Great little place with very friendly and welcoming staff. Has a quirky vibe but it's very clean and well organized. I went with coworkers for a quick lunch. The owner and staff were excited to see us and helped us with ordering from the menu. They gave us free drinks while we waited, which was very nice. The drinks were tasty and refreshing. Our food came out pretty quickly. We ordered the cucumber salad, tofu and mushroom, Pho, and popcorn chicken. We all enjoyed the flavor, freshness and presentation. I loved how delicious the Tofu and Mushroom dish was and it was served in a mason jar. We will definitely come back to try more! They have a promotion that gives you a $6 discount for 3 visits ($18 total).

    My beef noodle soup had no taste at all even after I added a lot of chili sauce. The noodle was under cooked and it was not hot when it was served. What a shock! The place is definitely nice and the server was friendly.

    Store being closed

    I've been here multiple times and every single time it's been closed. However, it seems like you can order it on Uber and the website. I don't know how you would pick it up though.

    This is one of the new kids in downtown SJ so we wanted to go check them out. I'm a huge noodle soup girl so I was excited to see a new noodle spot open up downtown. The woman working was so excited to see us walk in and was so sweet and welcoming. We were sadly the only ones there. We ordered and paid for our food through the self service station. When your food is ready it's brought to your table. We ordered 2 noodle soup dishes: the spiced Laksa and the savory Beijing beef noodle, chicken wings and the golden cheese wontons. We sat at the bar top at the front of the restaurant facing Santa Clara St. It was perfect! The food was delicious! The woman serving us was very nice. I'm so glad that we have a good noodle spot downtown now!

    Was finally able to try this little noodle spot out and was pleasantly surprised. Nice ambiance with even better soup. The broth for the spiced laska soup was delicious. Noodles were the right texture and the shrimp and mussels were perfectly cooked. My co worker had the vegetable noodle soup and she too was raving about it. I look forward to going back and trying the other options

    Beijing Beef Noodle Soup

    They were kind enough to separate the tofu bc of an allergy, the Laksa Noodles are very creamy and filling and the Bejing Beef Noodles were light and the noodles soak a lot of flavor from the soup. The portions are bigger than I expected for the price and very affordable (I could barely finish my bowl). The owner is very kind and accommodating, she alway made sure we were ok and very polite. The inside is very aesthetically pleasing and they have a cute window seat to chill and snack as well.

    They definitely don't mess around with the portion sizes!…read more This was my first time trying Evergreen Panda, and it might be one of the best hole-in-the-wall spots I've been to. My girlfriend and I ordered five dishes: BBQ pork fried rice, BBQ pork chow fun, orange chicken, salt and pepper chicken wings, and green beans with garlic sauce. Every dish was packed with flavor, and nothing felt like an afterthought. The salt and pepper chicken wings absolutely lived up to the hype--super crispy, well-seasoned, and easily our favorite. Between the generous portions, reasonable prices, and consistently delicious food, this place is an easy recommendation. We'll definitely be back!

    I knew when I seen the recent video review on Instagram of the salt and pepper wings from this…read moreplace that they would be good. On my way back from Central Coast CA, I popped in an hour before closing on a Thursday night. Evergreen Panda was busy with customers and it looked like it would be a long wait, I was wrong. I ordered the salt and pepper wings togo, of course and my meal came out within 15 minutes. As soon as I got in my car and popped the top on the Togo box, my entire car was enveloped with the smell of onion, garlic, pepper, chicken and jalapeños. That first bite was, HOT, CRISPY, JUICY and FLAVORFUL. I would be remiss if I told you these were the best salt and pepper chicken wings I've had. Evergreen panda fills the container to the top and doesn't skimp. I even had leftovers for the next day and threw them in the air fryer to get them crisp again. Price point is great too.

    Not the same Mayflower that I went to growing up but this place did NOT disappoint…read more We were in the mood for dim sum on the way to the T&T grocery store opening and yelp brought us here. We walked in right at opening to a completely empty dining room. Instead of leaving, we browsed the menu and ordered XLB, pot stickers, jelly fish, and pea sprouts (my personal fav) so glad we didn't leave! The XLB are a nice size, with each precious dumpling cradled in its own foil wrapper for maximum soup retention. The potstickers were full of flavor, packed with protein, delicately wrapped, and had the crispiest, golden bottoms! Jelly fish was fresh and the pea sprouts were a hit! The poor owner answering the phones made sure (in all languages) to inform folks calling in that there were a different May Flower than the other place-felt terrible for her but also understood the importance of differentiating right up front. I can only imagine the number of misorders they have probably dealt with. By the time we were done, the dining room was filled with a mix of what seemed like regulars, locals, large groups of families, small groups of friends... this feels like we stumbled upon a tiny hole in the wall restaurant where everyone who has been before just knows the quality and taste they are going to be getting! Highly recommend you check this place out for a dine in or take out order!

    Mayflower was the first Chinese restaurant I visited when I moved to the bayarea. After more than…read more15 years I decided it was time to check them out again. This is one of the handful of American Chinese restaurants that stood the test of time. As is typical of these places, there was an old lady manning the counter and also acting as the server. And as is typical of these places, there was table at the end where they were prepping the fruits and veggies. It's truly remarkable how they are all similar in these ways! We got a couple of dishes and they came out at lightning speed. * Chowmein-3/5- delicious with lots of umami flavor but shockingly greasy. I mean I am used to oily noodles but this one exceeded some limits. *crispy salt and pepper eggplant-3/5- I had a stellar version of this dish at another restaurant in Sunnyvale and was stoked when I saw this on the menu here. Unfortunately it was a poor representation of the dish I loved there. The batter was too much and the dish felt heavy. The hot oil or sauce they had felt old and extremely vinegary as well, I would recommend avoiding it.
