Had to change our review the last time we went the food was not as delish as our 1st visit, it might be the time of day or certain days but it's hit and miss unfortunately. I really want to support small businesses like this one and the staff is always friendly but we are still looking for a our new fav Chinese food restaurant read more

Service is good and fried rice and chow mein but other food like the beef and broccoli qnd the honey walnut not recommended read more

Edna Ray - A game: find the shrimp..DO NOT ORDER THE HONEY WALNUT SHRIMP. - Chinese Near Me - San Jose, California

Nice, local, spot. We've been coming to Edna Ray for many years, always order the Won Ton Soup. Especially this time of year, it's a delicious, and warming treat. We usually do take out, and the phone order process is easy (though some times we have to have to speak a bit more slowly). I expect we will remain happy customers for a long time to come. read more

We always order to go. So far, we haven't been disappointed. Good portions and the food taste good.

When I'm craving beef chow fun, this is my go to place. You get a big portion full of flavor and always full after! I would also definitely recommend the crab cheese puffs as they are crispy and delicious. It's a great appetizer to share as it comes with 8 pieces. We also enjoy the bbq pork fried rice. read more

Edna Ray - Front outside view - Chinese Near Me - San Jose, California

Edna Ray is consistent. Even though I ordered delivery it arrived hot and tasty. It does not taste as if it's been sitting around for hours. Rather the vegetables are fresh and the prawns were delicious. read more

Very sad bland cold food qite a disappointment terrible service the server did not even be bothered to get us ice water the place has really gone down read more

We've been going to Edna ray for about 6 years now. Today was definitely our last. In the last few years we have noticed different staff and we just haven't experienced great customer services for a while. We have definitely slowed down on dining at Edna ray because of the terrible customer service. Today's experience definitely made us want to walk out and never go back again, even our children were uncomfortable for the way the workers spoke to us. $50 for 3 dishes and to get yelled at by the worked. The food quality has not been great lately. Definitely don't recommend. read more

I'm sooooo disappointed. Edna Ray used to be one of my favorite restaurants back when they were in Willow Glen. Tonight we got take out and the food was horrible. We ordered Mongolian beef, orange chicken, and chicken fried rice. I know Mongolian beef is supposed to be spicy, but it was so spicy no one in my family could eat it (and I LOVE spicy food - I put hot sauce on everything). I order Mongolian beef almost every time we get Chinese food, and I've never had it as spicy as this one. In fact, this is the only time I've ever had ANY food that was so spicy that I couldn't eat it. The fried rice, on the other hand, was bland and dry. Even my teenager didn't like it, and she's never had fried rice she didn't like. The orange chicken was edible, but not great. The flavor was good, but there was more breading than chicken and the breading was mushy. We treat ourselves to take out every Friday night and was really looking forward to this, but it was such a disappointment and a waste of money since no one is going to eat the leftovers. read more

We love this place but tonight it was a total disaster. Ordered at 5:41 and it was here at 6pm. It was NOT cooked fresh. It was definitely reheated and not that much either. I had my usual honey WALNUT shrimp and not a single walnut in it and it was soggy like it was reheated from yesterday! And the pork fried rice was really dry. The pork was dried out and the rice was hard. The egg roll was soft and mushy like it had been sitting around since their lunchtime. My husband's beef wasn't very warm but tasted ok. For $74 I expected better. I've never had a bad meal until now. Sad. read more

Great food if you just want to eat Americanized Chinese cuisine. Prices are reasonable and service fast. I live in the neighbourhood, so convenience plays a part in my frequently visiting this place. On the bright side the garlic eggplant is a must. read more

Wow, don't let the seedy neighborhood keep you away! Only problem with this place is making sure you're car is safe outside. But once inside Edna Ray, it'll feel like your new go to Chinese food restaurant. Great lunch specials, very quick service, sizable portions and affordable. I'm a huge fan of the Kung Pao Prawns! Delicious sauce with a little kick to it! With so many of these bistro Chinese food spots it's nice to see a good mom & pop like this. Great service is overlooked. My entire time at Edna Ray was filled with great service, someone periodically asking me "is everything okay", refilling my water and the food coming prompt and hot. read more

I was recommended to this place by a lady that trust. I can see why she recommended it. I'm surprised place doesn't have a line at the door. The food quality is excellent. Food is delicious. The service is wonderful and it's very prompt. If you haven't tried it, go there you will not go wrong with any choice of food. read more

This is a step up from Panda Express in the world of take-out American Chinese Food. Their portion sizes are huge. I ordered from Door Dash, and the food was still warm and ready to eat when it arrived. I ordered the combination chow mein with extra shrimp. The portion size was large enough for three meals, and all three were tasty. read more

Love this place! Food is always good and when I place an order, it is always ready on time.

Waited over 2.5 hours for food delivery. When I called to ask them about the order, she barely could understand what I was saying. She then hung up on me. Bad customer service. read more

Fantastic Honey walnut prawn lunch with fried rice. Comes with a small side salad and hot and sour soup. If you're looking for very spicy and delicious Mongolian beef, this is the place where you can find it. Service is friendly and fast too. read more

Edna Ray - a bowl of soup and a bowl of salad - Chinese Near Me - San Jose, California

I just recently came for a pick up order. I was so disappointed. The fried rice.was dry and not seasoned and the rice was really hard. This restaurant fell off and I do not recommend coming here. read more

Came about 30 minutes before closing on a weekday. Nobody was inside but was hungry. Place looked and smelled clean. Was greeted and told it was takeout only. Okay gave it a try. The food was palatable but was not impressed with the taste or quality. My gut feeling was not to try it since it was close to closing. I believe we got what was intended to be thrown away before closing. We tried the kung pao chicken, steamed rice, walnut prawns and sweet and sour pork. read more

Hello everyone so I have been here total three times the first two times were good. I came today with my kids. My daughter ordered a sweet-and-sour lunch special and it was just sour. There was no sweet to it. We did let them know that it was not to my daughters liking, and if we could exchange it, they stated that they weren't gonna exchange it nor take it off my bill because My Daughter had already touched it of course she touched it because she had tried a small piece of the sweet-and-sour on top of that the service is just real bad they have an attitude with even asking for a cup of water, so I had Nlet them know I wasn't going to pay for it because it was not to my daughters liking and that this was the first time we ordered the sweet and sour they did exchange it for the beef broccoli however it was just a lot of back-and-forth and it seemed like we had to argue with the staff to go ahead and get this issue resolved. To say the least, this will be our last time here. read more

Really good Chinese food , prices are good with generous portions. Never fails. Also fast service.

I've never been to this place, but I'm glad I got a chance to stop by. It's definitely not set up for dine in, with half the restaurant sectioned off, but there were maybe 6 tables still to occupy. Me and my friend had the gourmet dinner meal. We each got a small cup of soup, small Chinese salad, 2 small Crab Rangoon, 2 fried shrimp to share, a fried rice to share and she got sesame chicken while I got the beef and scallop entree. It was $22? Plus tip. The service was good, they offered refills without us asking and even fixed my friends salad after she forgot to mention a nut allergy, the food came out hot, and they were nice enough to let us sit there until close to closing. We saw a lot of To-Go orders picked up while there. While ambiance wasn't the greatest due to the location and set up, the food was good, and I'll likely order to go from them. read more

Ordered takeout here for the very first time as I'm still trying to find my "go-to" Chinese restaurant here in South Bay. Everything was too "floury" from the honey walnut shrimp to the general tso's chicken. I understand that the dishes use that layer but it was just overdone here. Favorite dish from what we ordered was the fried fish fillet but it was just way too salty. Omgoodness. The hunt continues. read more

Edna Ray - Chinese Near Me - San Jose, California

This place was suggested to us because it was "really good" when it was in Los Gatos. One of the worst eating experiences I've had. I'm not sure the waitress had ever waited on tables before and we were the only customer in the restaurant at the time. Had to ask for her to take our drink order. Food was not great. Water tasted like it was out of the gutter. Won't be going again. read more

I've been going to Edna Rae since they were a little hole in the wall downtown Willow Glen. My absolute favorite is their Mongolian beef/Fried rice special. No one makes it like Edna Rae. Tried the honey walnut shrimp but I'll stick to my favorite #15. Current Menu as of 12/2020 read more

For the record - I like American style Chinese food. So take that for what it's worth before you read my review - your opinion my differ - but if you like authentic Chinese food - this is not your place. I ordered take-out, pot stickers, white rice, Kung Pao chicken and their chef's special version of chow mein. $80! I ordered very early and it took almost 40 minutes to get the food - so I was already bummed. Potstickers - doughy, not a lot of flavor. The sauce was good. I can't say I'd be happy to have them again, but not awful. Kung Pao Chicken - It was pretty good, they cut down on the spice for me. The veggies were fresh and crips. Thier chow mein said "Chunky pan fried noodles" which excited me because as a kid my local chinese food was anchored by pan fried chow mein noodles. This was more vermicelli noodles. Maybe if my expectations weren't set up by the description I'd love this. But it was fine. This was about a $35 meal, maybe 40 with tip. Portions are indeed huge and it will provide several meals but I still can't see myself ordering here again. :( read more

Though a bit on the pricier side, always has tasty selections with good sized portions. read more

Edna Ray - Peking Chicken, Honey Walnut Prawns, Snow Peas with Water Chestnuts, Combination Chow Fun - Chinese Near Me - San Jose, California

Worse customer service EVER!! We order from they for over 5 years! It's the second time that I needed to dine in and felt I was there begging for food! Seems that they don't need customers. Please don't give business to them. read more

Good tasting food good affordable price well proportioned nicely.. did I mention new owners...

Big fan of the WIllow Glen Edna Ray - unfortunately this location is very different. Even the "spicy" dishes were very bland

This place has changed its name but I'm not sure if the owner changed too. In anyway, we've had dinner in the restaurant but mostly ordered food for pick up. The meal combo for 2 was reasonably priced. Egg roll, soup, rice and 2 entrees. Call in your food for pick up and they're done in 10-15 mins. Beef broccoli has good meat-broccoli proportion. Mongolian beef is the best: spicy, meaty and with lots of sautéed onions. And you can't go wrong with their fried rice. Reasonably priced. Service-not great but not bad. read more

Surprisingly, Edna Ray has become one of my go to places for Chinese food! They consistently offer good food at a reasonable price! Is every dish on the menu perfect? No, not all! But for the most part, I think the flavors and texture are very good! Service here is also good! It's a small, family run business that offers very good Chinese dishes! read more

Used to visit Edna Rays when they were on Lincoln ave., so happy they are still around. Probably the best Chinese food around.

This restaurant should be ashamed of itself. To charge 20 dollars for honey walnut shrimp, made with SALAD SHRIMP, dipped over and over again in batter! How dare you! We work for our money too and don't appreciate fraud! Look at the pics for yourself. In addition, the Singapore noodles were just a flat, one note yellow curry and the Mongolian beef had 2 tiny chili pods and no noticeable heat. I have not regretted a restaurant purchase this much in years. Never ever again, and honestly I'm considering following up on this shrimp issue, because it's just plain fraud. read more

Decent for a basic American Chinese lunch. Food was fresh, prices were cheap, parking a plenty. Some notes: They have a tiny parking lot behind the restaurant but a lot of people living in the apartments behind them use it so it's always full even if the restaurant is empty. There's plenty of street parking in the day. Some people are saying it's not a great neighborhood to park in. It's fine on the main street. Just be smart and hide valuables. They have a lunch menu for during the week, and you get soup, salad, your main dish and choice of white rice or fried rice. Staff are friendly and refill waters regularly. Or maybe I just went on a really slow day haha. Overall if you're in the mood for some broccoli beef or sweet and sour prawns or another American Chinese dish, they're great prices for lunch. All under $10. Huge portions. read more

Man the walnut chicken was so HARD! You had to break the batter just to get to eat the chicken and I came back for a softer walnut chicken and the lady in the front was saying that's how it is and getting irritated. I have to say the worst walnut chicken experience ever! The rice was the only good thing. read more

Every dish I've ever had here is a 10/10... food is so fresh and tasty.. staff are very attentive and genuinely sincere.. I just had a party of 17 and no complaints from anyone about anything. Try the honey walnut chicken, Mongolian beef, house chow menu .... Anything !! read more

My favorite neighborhood Chinese food spot. Service is ok, nothing spectacular but they are nice. Food is always on point and great portions for your money's worth. The restaurant has always been pretty quiet inside as for the ambiance and the parking can be hard at times. However if you live in the neighborhood, my top recommendation! read more
