    Minced chicken corn soup
    Kreesha E.

    love the fu jian fried rice and salt&peppet pork! So yummy!!!! No frills. Fast service. Although it was kind of weird that there was gratuity automatically added to my bill without us electing to add it.

    China Palace is a good place that consistently turns out tasty food. I like that they are open super late. This allows you great flexibility to dine in or for takeout. Simple decorations with lots of pictures of the dishes from their menu. It's a fairly small restaurant so a big party would be hard to accommodate.

    Salt and pepper squid
    Stephanie X.

    One of our favorite Chinese spots in the area. Ordered the salt and pepper squid and combo fried rice which is always perfectly crispy and salted. Also noteworthy are the salt and pepper wings, steamed chicken with soy sauce, and the Chinese broccoli. Contrary to other reviews, we appreciated the service here. It was a bit warm inside and the worker was constantly coming by to refill our ice waters which was greatly appreciated!

    House fried rice, salt/pepper chicken wings, combination vegetables, house chow mein, sweet & sour fish fillet.

    I've been coming here for years, even before the management change (if there was one). It's a solid spot my family and I go to occasionally. On Sundays, it's never too busy and usually get served fairly quickly. The "old, cranky" server was nice to us one day, always tending to our table without asking. But recently, he was unexpectedly "rude" but i honestly think he's just at that age where he wants things done. However, he grew kinder as the afternoon went on, which was weird. The food itself is great. We always order the sweet and sour fish fillet, salt and pepper chicken wings, house fried rice, and combination vegetables, all which are consistent each time. If you want good food and fast service, come here. But if you don't give grace to "rude" servers, you might wanna stay away lol. We don't mind and find it kind of funny.

    Honey Walnut Shrimp
    Hoa N.

    This review is for a to go order experience. Major props to this restaurant for opening extremely late. FOOD: -Honey Walnut Shrimp: yummy, creamy, and flavorful. Sweet and savory lightly coated between all the shrimps. -Mongolian Beef: one of the best I've had in so long. Soft, tender, and juicy beef. Packed with all the flavor on there. Def recommend getting this dish -Salted Fish Fried Rice: a must when ordering from here. For $50 total between the 3 dishes, so worth it to get esp they close really late when you are craving for some flavorful Chinese food. Lots of parking around the restaurant.

    Walnut prawns. Do not buy them
    David N.

    Used to go here years ago and their walnut prawns were amazing. Got them togo and they barely had any mayo sauce and the walnuts weren't even sweet or cooked. They just tossed in walnut from a container. The prawns weren't even crunchy.

    Salted fish & Chicken fried rice
    Ashley C.

    Hidden gem in Milpitas that has been here for years. No frills Chinese spot with consistent food. Open late for those late night munchies. Cash only ! My go to dishes: Salt & Pepper Fish: white flaky fish with a light batter - I'm usually not a fried food person but this one smacks. Fish is never dry and that fry is fairly light and not heavy on the breading Ong Choy sautéed in garlic (idk what the menu item is lol) I just ask for Ong Choy and they know. They don't have this all the time so my alternates are pea sprouts or gai lan. Nothing beats some nicely sauced and sautéed veggies to give some crunch & greens to the meal Salted fish & chicken fried rice: that smokiness from the wok gives it a nice flavor. Not too salty so goes well with the other entrees Others I've tried: Pork chops: they're popular here but not my fav - a bit too sweet for me Chow fun: no complaints on this one, also love the wok flavors on it. Service Usually there's an older Asian man working the front. He may seem not very hospitable but he's giving Asian uncle / grandpa cut the bs attitude and I'm not mad at it. He's actually very very nice and I always look forward to seeing him. Ambiance No frills Chinese spot, lots of folks come for take out.

    The food is good and the place is open late, but the service is sub-par. I ordered the House Special Chow Fun and the Braised Tofu and Mushroom and Tender Greens with Rice in a Lotus Leaf. It was a bit of time before I came back here, and the dish that I used to order used to be on their Specials Board, but when I went back, it wasn't. I tried to find it on the menu and asked the server, but they were very impatient, so I picked what I thought was it, but I was wrong. Then when they brought the dish, it felt like they were tossing it on the table in an irritated manner. The ambiance is casual.

    You know what they say about Asian Restaurants. The worst the service the better the food. Basically family Style!!! Service: 6/10 No matter how respectful you are, unless you speak Chinese, they will always seem like they're mad at you. As an Asian myself, I've gotten somewhat used to it, but when you come in, as someone who isn't used to it, it can get a little uncomfortable. They kinda talk to you like you're a little kid. My friends and I was waiting for our food, and when it came, they kinda yelled at us to take a plate for each Person to eat. But the guy gave all the girls a straw for their water so that's a plus haha. Food: 9/10 Oh yeah, for the price, the food and portions are so so good. If you love the Honey Walnut shrimp at Panda Express, youll love this place even more. It basically melts in your mouth, and you get such a good amount for the price, Wayyy more than Panda, and way better. We also ordered the Pork Intestines, I usually hate intestines, but they made it so crispy and yummy. And we ordered so much more too!!! To make 6 Adults full, it costed $120 including $12 tips!!! Vibe: 8/10 Exactly what you'd expect when walking into any Asian restaurant, it's a homie vibe, and super calm in there. They play really good music in the kitchen. Overall: 7/10 I love the food, service not so much. But yummy yummy food!!! For really cheap.

    underrated. Large portion size for ~10-15$ price. Get the soup dine in. Togo portion sizes smaller because of size of containers. Family or home cooking style Hong Kong/cantonese menu. Specialize in wrapped lotus leaf. Been there a long time at least 15y. They are trying to keep costs down by having tje owner bus and clean the tables. They live frugally. Not the same inflation you see in the supermarkets. All dishes around 10-13$. Chicken pooridge at 7$. That is rare. Hot food prepared close to what ypu get at home. Very reasonable price and portion sizes.

The waitress would refill our water frequently and the food was great! The tofu was perfect and tasted really good.

We went all in and tried the fried silkworms, chicken liver pâté with Chinese donut, and eggplant dip with crispy rice crackers. Then came the truffle & mushroom rice, frog legs, lemongrass chicken, and banana leaf-wrapped sea bass. Every single dish was delicious, with so many interesting flavors and textures. The fried silkworms were definitely an adventure, but honestly, everything we ordered surprised us in the best way. The truffle & mushroom rice was especially memorable, and I'd absolutely order it again. Only downside: parking can be a challenge. And it's first come, first served, so plan accordingly and expect a wait during busy times or use the Yelp waitlist. But for us? Totally worth it. If you love trying new foods, bold flavors, and dishes that are a little outside the usual, put Jun Bistro on your list!

It's a good thing we did because the restaurant filled up completely 5 minutes after ordering. The inside of the restaurant is clean and modern, they have some art up on the wall that was cool to look at. The food was definitely the star though. We tried the BBQ pork and shrimp noodle rolls. Both were really good but my favorite was still the shrimp. I loved the veggies in the roll too. They can be a bit hard to pick up and eat because they're massive and cut into thirds. Other than that, the rice noodles are thin and silky and hold the sauce nicely. The sauce is also delicious. We also ordered the fish congee which was simple but comforting. It comes out PIPING hot so don't burn your tongue. Fish was tender and flavorful. Overall no complaints and the service was quick. Highly recommend!

Look forward to returning for more chang fen.

    My wife and I were looking for a place to grab some food to share with our family we were visiting!…read moreWe came across this place online and we were very happy with our decision. We ordered the Mongolian Beef and a plate of tofu and all of it was delicious! The Mongolian beef was a little more spicy than we anticipated but thats okay, it still tasted great. The tofu was eaten up in an instant. Our order was take out and the person taking our order over the phone was fast but friendly. When we got to the restaurant, two of the three dishes we ordered were ready to go! Inside, couples, friends and passers by were enjoying their meals and time together. This looks like a great local spot with great food. We will definitely visit again.

This time, I ordered the stinky tofu. Honestly, you can probably pass on this one. The price doesn't really match the taste or quality, so I wouldn't recommend it. I also ordered the eggplant and tofu clay pot. It was pretty ordinary, but the one advantage is that I ordered it through Panda Food Delivery, and it cost less than $10, so at that price, I can't really complain. I also tried the stir-fried snail meat with pickled long beans. I'm not quite sure how to rate this one. The flavor itself was actually pretty good, but it didn't really taste like what I expected from pickled long beans. They also have two dishes made with pickled long beans--the pickled long bean soup noodles and the stir-fried noodles. Both were just average to me. Overall, my recommendation would be: try it once if you're curious, but I don't think it's worth a second visit.
