Since my parents live in Hayward I bring my family here very often as well. Hard to find a good HongKong style restaurants unless I go to San Francisco or Oakland but in Hayward area this is it. Food has been consistently good and dimsum is offered in their entire opening hours. I wish they open more than just Thursdays through Sundays.

My family celebrated my dad's 87th birthday here. When we arrived, the restaurant was busy, but…read morethere were still seats available. My sister had reserved our tables a few days in advance. The staff told her we wouldn't be seated unless our entire party was present. About 4 people were late, but they still seated us. The restaurant kind of felt old and somewhat dirty. But hey, it was my dad's birthday. I wasn't paying for lunch. We occupied three tables and ordered from both the lunch and dim sum menus. I enjoyed dishes like shiu mai, pork buns, walnut shrimp, fried rice, fish, and fried noodles. The sesame balls were tasty, but the service was slow, and I had to follow up on our order. I didn't care for the bun with the hot dog or the other noodle dish. Later that day, my daughter mentioned she had found hair in a pork bun and that her cousin had eaten it. She also said every item he picked up had hair on it, which was disappointing. I didn't confirm this with my cousin, but it would have been helpful to have someone inform the staff. Fortunately, no one at our table found hair in their food, which was a relief. Overall, the food that I ate was fine, but I wouldn't make a special trip from San Jose to visit again...unless it's a fambam family treat.

Ordered from Hong Kong to be delivered after a very long works day and stuck at work…read more I was very impressed when they arrived about 20 minutes later and the driver was very friendly. The food was piping hot and smelled great. We ordered the combination fried rice and sesame chicken. The portions are huge and could probably feed three people. The taste was very good and loved every single bite. I couldn't believe the sesame chicken was still crispy after being delivered. Great experience and not overly expensive too!

However, my family had a GREAT experience and liked the food! The staff are SO friendly and attentive (so many water refills--I loved it) and even let us eat our cake there. The food tasted like any other authentic Chinese restaurant (Chinese grandma approved). We ordered the sizzling rice soup, dry-fried string beans, garlic eggplant, garlic chicken, mao pao tofu, gindo piguot (not sure how to spell it in English), and crispy seafood noodles. Their gindo piguot (sweet and sour short rib I think) really stood out and we ended up ordering 2 of them. I didn't love their mao pao tofu (still tasted good, but didn't taste like the typical mao pao tofu). Overall, not sure why they have a low rating and would consider coming back if I'm in the area!

To whom it may concern,…read more a soul who delights in rich umami flavors, tasty Szechuan has found a place in my heart. As you make your way to your seat the hostess brings you a small bowl of fried peanuts with hot tea, which is super generous. The menu offers traditional yet caters to the native Hayward resident who doesn't know much about the Szechuan region, I'm that resident . The booths and tables remind me of my childhood traditional Chinese restaurant back in Fresno, ca yet with a modern twist, in my opinion portions are generous as well which is inviting for a family feast...well done tasty Szechuan.

So when ppl here say the portions are HUGE, they're really not joking. We ordered the chili fried…read morechicken, fish in hot chili oil, and the eggplant with garlic sauce and took home a full ass meal after we'd finished (over) eating. All dishes came out as we hoped/expected with both the chicken and fish providing the nummy sensation that is unique to Szechuan cuisine. We threw in the eggplant order because we wanted some veggies and something that didn't overtly threaten to numb our palettes and were very happy with that as well. Chicken was fried well and not dry at all which was a lovely experience. Fish was also flavorful and enjoyable to eat, although perhaps the least memorable of the dishes. I wouldn't NOT get any of the dishes again and might elevate the chicken as a must get if you're there for the a Szechuan experience. Well probably come back the next time we get a craving for that nummy feeling.

The service was on point from start to finish--attentive, friendly, and quick. We started with the lobster and shrimp potstickers , and they were absolutely amazing--definitely something I would order again without hesitation. For dinner, we ordered the string bean chicken, chicken fried rice, and salt and pepper wings. Everything came out family-style, which I loved, and the portions were generous--we had plenty left to take home. Even though the evening overall was a bit of a bust, the food and service made it worth it. I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu.

I finally got to try Asia Delight Express in Hayward for the first time!…read more You know what? I wasn't missing anything! Asia Delight Express is chinese fast food. Prepared foods are on a steam table or under hot lights. You pick a meal combo, and they serve it onto foam trays. Then they suggestive sell add-on's and drinks. The formula for success is simple: - tasty food, big portions, and affordable prices. People rave about this place on social media, so I have to come check it out. So it's Friday around dinner time. I'm cruising on Hesperian Blvd in the right lane. I pass the Valero station and realize.....this is where Asia Delight is! They have a dining area with 4-6 small square tables. But the tables looked dirty, and the whole place looked untidy. But the steam table counter looked beautiful. It was loaded with hot food and each tray seemed to be full. Two ladies and one young man were serving. The young man did a good job taking and serving orders. I decide to get the Combo B for $9.45. - fried rice/ chow mein + 2 entrees I got fried rice, black bean spare ribs, chicken w/ string beans in gravy. How was it? No flavor! I don't use the word "bland" very often. Geez, I didn't know there was a shortage of soy sauce, sesame oil and salt & pepper. Maybe chili oil will help. Would I come back? No thanks

I've been living in the area for 10+ years and always see this place yet I've never tried it! Today was finally the day and I hate myself for not trying it sooner!! We called in for a pick up order and we got chicken and broccoli, orange chicken, bbq pork fried rice, veggie chow mein and salt and pepper prawns. The staff packed everything so nicely in Togo box that was the perfect size! There's a lot of street parking so it's easy to pull over, pick up and head home. The gentleman working inside was so kind!! When my boyfriend went to go pick up our order, he was in the middle of cleaning and gladly handed over our order. The place inside looked so cozy and sweet, we'll have to dine in next time! The food was absolutely delicious! Nothing tasted greasy, salty, and there were so many veggies included with each dish! The food tasted fresh, smelled amazing and left us super satisfied! The salt and pepper prawns were my favorite! They're doused in garlic, jalapeños and red peppers!! Sooo delicious! The prawns tasted fresh with no fishy taste whatsoever!! I might have just found the best Chinese spot in town! I'm so happy we came and tried their food. 10/10

About 5 minutes later they called back so we were able to order. We got the small platter of fried chicken wings and they were a hit. It serves about 10-12 people and comes with 40 wings or so.

The frustration in driving in a circle. The ambiance of the restaurant is basically a Hong Kong Cafe style. There are two areas catering small parties to big parties. The lighting is terrible though, the florescent lighting is just not for me. The food here is pretty good. They have a huge selection. Hayward doesn't have a lot of Asian catering restaurants that are cheap eats. Yeah, they opened a new banquet, but not a lot of fast, cheap foods. 1. Pork Congee with Thousand Year Old Egg - Typically very flavorful. I like to come grab a bowl when I'm not feeling well to cook. 2. Honey Walnut Shrimp - How can you go wrong? Such a western staple. 3. Pork Chow Fun - Large portion, reasonably priced, tasty enough. 4. Salt & Pepper Fish Fillet - Surprisingly one of my favorite things on the menu. Sharable portions, enough for maybe 2-4 people. 5. Salt & Pepper Prawns - Typically I would say standard, but I don't believe I enjoyed the prawns as much. 6. Mongolian Beef - Standard, soft, best with rice. 7. Salt & Pepper Pork Chops - I could live without this. 8. Combo Pan Fried Noodles - I love me a crispy noodle with gravy I can pour over because it leaves a good texture. 9. Chicken Fried Rice - Standard, sharable 10. Beef Brisket Noodle Soup - Tasty, boyfriend's favorite. Hate that adding wonton is literally $1 per piece and it's so tiny. 11. HK Milk Tea - Reasonable, but not very flavorful.. 12. Lemon Tea - Decent, probably our go to drink 13. Assam Milk Tea with Cheese Foam - Not worth it. The service is pretty standard, limited due to language barrier at times.

The egg flower soup was nicely seasoned (not too bland, not too salty- just perfect) and had a great ratio of egg ribbons and veggies. Beef chow fun had tender generous portion of beef and great flavor. Egg rolls were typical- crispy and delicious. Sesame chicken/ fried rice was good, but my only tiny critique is I wish the chicken helping was bigger and the rice helping smaller. But hey, I ain't mad at it! Definitely will come back next time I'm in the area.
