Bec P.

Ordered delivery & it exceeded our expectations! My sister & I ordered orange chicken, broccoli beef, combo fried rice, and veggie spring rolls. We had plenty leftover after dinner and enjoyed the rest for lunch the next day-- help up well! The sauces are on the oilier side, but flavorful & tasty nonetheless. I'll definitely be eating here again!

Fried Braised Tofu in Brown Sauce & Curry Beef over rice are YUMMY. Don't forget the hot tea.

Great place, the food are awesome and the people here are so kind, friendly and always make you welcome. I just love this place.

Hot and Sour Soup
Auggie L.

Went for Daily Lunch Special Food - 3/5. Hot and sour soup had decent flavor with a heavy tone of black pepper. Consistency was standard, thickened with starch but still slurpable. Fried rice was alright with minimal amounts of wok hei. Almond chicken was soft but the flavor consisted mostly of soy sauce. Sweet and sour pork had a lot of batter and the vegetables were hard. Sauce was sweet and tangy, but the consistency was too thick and the flavor was generic. Service - 4/5. Quick, courteous service. Value - 2/5. They offer combination plates for $17 or above during lunch with a set menu depending on your selection. For the price, the amount of food you get was small, especially on the protein side. There was 4 pieces of pork compared to the large amount of filler vegetables. The quality wasn't anything impressive either. It's hard to justify the cost when there is so much competition in that price range. Parking - Private Lot (Free)

Hot & Sour Soup - comes with the combo
Stephen D.

China Wok is a great no-frills Chinese restaurant in an otherwise pricey area, dining and living-wise. We typically stop by for their lunch specials, which are about $14-$16 each. I recently got the C4 special - Almond Chicken, Sweet & Sour Pork, and Fried Rice, which comes with Hot & Sour Soup as well. The staff are friendly and the service is fast as the restaurant is never full. If you're looking for something quick, tasty, and relatively cheap for dining out, this is a great spot to try!

Salt Pepper Prawns
Michael L.

I'm glad they made it through the pandemic. This is not the fanciest spot but they have a large traditional Chinese menu and the food is fresh. I had the salt & pepper prawns and I can't recall what the beef dish was. They give you the option of having the prawns peeled or not. The prawns were fresh and the food came out super quick which was good because we were on a time limit. Good alternative to Chef Chu's.

Food and experience is closer to 4.5 but rounded down bc it's so expensive…read more Was curious to try this new restaurant specializing in Peking duck. Reservation was easy to make over the phone and you have to preorder duck ahead of time. We also got pan fried buns, bok choy, and mandarin fish. Dishes are expensive but good quality. I read mixed reviews about the duck but I thought it was great - crispy skin and relatively tender/juicy meat. It is the first time I've seen an extra charge for the duck pancake wrappers; it was not a pleasant surprise but at least they were thin and delicious. We opted to have a soup made from the leftover duck and that was delicious. Service was also pretty good; they even packaged the leftovers for us. Highly recommend for a special occasion or to impress friends but too much of a splurge to go to regularly.

We are huge fans of their sister location, Treasure in Belmont, so we were really excited to try…read moreout Imperial Treasure for dinner. Unfortunately, it just wasn't as good overall as the Belmont spot. The space itself is older, and the seating feels pretty tight and not as comfortable. As for the food, we ordered the Peking duck, which came with a lot of meat, but the duck itself didn't taste fresh at all. It had that distinct, stale "old meat" taste to it, and the texture was completely off and mushy rather than having a nice, fresh bite. The xiao long bao missed the mark too--the wrappers were too thick and the filling wasn't nearly as savory or delicious as what we're used to. Even the basic steamed rice tasted like a cheaper, lower-quality grain. For the other dishes, the stir-fried scallion lamb was way too salty, even though we specifically asked them to go light on the salt, and it lacked that deep umami flavor they get so right at the other location. On the bright side, the Treasure's signature beef honeycomb tripe was actually really good, though the spice level is definitely on the higher side so beware if you're sensitive to heat. For dessert, I finished with the sesame glutinous rice balls in sweet rice wine because it's one of my absolute favorites, but it fell short since there was barely any wine or osmanthus flavor. The service was also pretty lacking throughout the night. They didn't even bother to clear our dirty dinner plates off the tight table after we ordered our dessert, so everything was incredibly cramped. They also completely ignored the rest of our Peking duck instead of proactively asking what we wanted to do with the carcass bones and the remaining meat. We had to specifically flag them down ourselves to ask about it and explain what we wanted done with it, which should really be standard practice for a proper duck service. Compared to the sister restaurant, the execution, environment, and service here just aren't quite there yet.

Went for Weekday Lunch Special…read more Food - 5/5. Soup was sweet and sour with a bit of umami, mostly from the tomato. Its consistency was standard with a good mouthfeel. Pork chops were savory with a nice bite. The seasoning was just enough to elevate the rich flavor of the pork. The cabbage side dish had a delicious umami flavor that came from shrimp and the potato side dish was soaked in a soy-based sauce that gave it a strong taste. I was amused by the fact that the potatoes were actually french fries, meaning they are being creative with whatever they have on hand. The results were yummy side dishes, so in a way, it showcases their culinary skills. Rice was fluffy and the pickled mustard greens were a great palate cleanser. Service - 4/5. Quick and courteous service. They served the soup before I even ordered; I must have a 'orders lunch special' look to me. Value - 5/5. They have a good selections for their lunch special, all ranging between $15-$17. Each comes with your choice of entree, soup, rice, pickled greens, and two sides. I really enjoyed the variety and the portion sizes were substantial. Great lunch special! Parking - Street (Free)

We enjoyed the Moon Shrimp cake, hot sour soup, sizzling beef with black bean sauce, sautéed green beans and kung pao salmon. They quickly took us in, ordered and served food. You can really taste the delicious wok flavor in their cooking. You. Must. Order. The green beans. They're sooo delicious and you'll instantly be a big fan. Bonus is that they're not spicy so it's perfect for kids. They'll love to eat their veggies after having a bite of this. Parking is confusing, they have a lot behind that's easy to miss. I recommend parking at the end of the block and walk over.

Ey Mister Mister, yo missus missus, you must must to come see see and to eat eat at the kitchen of…read morefood master Mister Bao. Yes, yet another excellent restaurant joins the vibrant scene of downtown Mountain View. Mr. Bao Kitchen's streamlined menu yielded great gustatory rewards. We started out with Tomato Egg Drop Soup. Really nice and comforting, to prepare us for the delicacies to arrive next. Pan-fried Dumplings (Shen jien Bao) were terrific and almost molten hot inside. Surprise of hot soup awaits inside the hefty dumpling wrapper, therefore: Bee very careful when biting into the Shen jien Bao. Meantime, Vegetable Mushroom Steamed Dumplings arrived in a big tall steamer basket with dipping sauce side. Vibrant green wrappers on these were hearty thick, delightful and delectable. Pork Cabbage Dumplings are a solid recipe with nice filling. Fried Rice is top-notch in freshness, ingredients and execution. That's one of the best versions of the rice dish that I've enjoyed in awhile. We opted for shrimp in the mix, and those were plump and juicy. Happily, everything I selected was a hit. Staff who worked the lunch hour and accommodated our outside table were gracious, helpful, also patient with my lacking and mangled attempt at Mandarin. Everyone at the table enjoyed the food, company and weather. All in all, I heartily recommend Mr. Bao kitchen for scrumptious Chinese cuisine.

Not sure why this place has such a high review. Went on a weekday, only two server. Technically…read moreonly one, because I'm not sure what's the other server role is. Never seen her taking order. We raised our hand for a long time the server said "umm.." then walked away to take water from the back not for us but to refill for others. When she walked passed I told her again we can orders she walked away and deliver food to other table. It is beyond frustrating. We waited for 15 mins before anyone give us water and take our order. The service here is too slow. We got the string beans, kale, both are tasteless and small portion. Never had I feel like it does not taste like anything. The XLB supposedly their speciality', is overrated. Is really nothing special. The worst dish is the hot and sour soup, is not authentic is spicy not sour. I won't be back
